AP Precalculus Logarithm

• True, subtraction between two logarithms is division in condensed form.

• True, a logarithm is an exponent. When dividing like bases you subtract exponents therefor dividing logarithms as in this example.

• False, subtraction between two logarithms is division within a single logarithm in condensed form.

Use the change of base formula and your calculator to approximate the log.

• A

• B

• C

• D

Solve for x:

• 1

• 2

• .5

• 4
