Q. Condense the logarithm. Assume all expressions exist and are well-defined.loga5+loga3
Identify Property: Identify the property of logarithm used to condense loga5+loga3.Since these logarithms have the same base, we can apply the product rule to condense the logarithms:
Apply Sum Property: Apply the product property to condense loga5+loga3.logbP+logbQ=logb(PQ)loga5+loga3=loga(5⋅3)
Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression inside the logarithm.loga(5⋅3)=loga15
