Properties of Logarithms

Write log_b(xy) as two logs

• log_bx+log_by
• log_bx-log_by
• log_bx*log_by
• log_bx/log_by

Write log_b(x/y) as two logs

• log_bx-log_by
• log_bx+log_by
• log_bx*log_by
• log_bx/log_by

Rewrite log_b(xⁿ)

• nlog_bx
• (log_bx)ⁿ
• xⁿlog_bx
• log_b(xⁿ)

Write the expression as a single logarithm.   Then simplify if possible.
log₅3 + log₅6 + log₅9

• log₅69
• log₅56
• log₅162
• log₅98

• log (a⁵ + b²⁵)
• log (a⁵ − b²⁵)
• log (ab²⁵)
• log (a⁵/b²⁵)
