Q. Condense the logarithm7loga−xlogdAnswer: log(□)
Rewrite using power rule: We are given the expression 7log(a)−xlog(d) and we need to condense it into a single logarithm.According to the properties of logarithms, specifically the power rule which states that nlogb(m)=logb(mn), we can rewrite each term as follows:7log(a) becomes log(a7) and xlog(d) becomes log(dx).
Combine using quotient rule: Now we have log(a7)−log(dx). According to the quotient rule of logarithms, which states that logb(m)−logb(n)=logb(nm), we can combine these two logarithms into a single logarithm with a quotient inside.So, log(a7)−log(dx) becomes log(dxa7).
Final condensed expression: We have successfully condensed the original expression into a single logarithm. The final answer is log(dxa7).
