Apply the properties of logs to simplify an expression

The video tutorial covers the properties of logarithms and the basics of substitution. It explains how to use Y instead of G(X) for easier notation and demonstrates converting logarithmic equations to exponential form. The tutorial also discusses understanding exponents with the same base, emphasizing the need for exponents to be equal when bases are identical.

Why might it be easier to use Y instead of G of X or F of X in mathematical notation?

What must be true about the exponents when the bases are the same in exponential equations?
