Q. Expand the logarithm fully using the properties of logs. Express the final answer in terms of logx,logy, and logz.logz5x4y3Answer:
Apply Quotient Rule: Apply the quotient rule of logarithms to the expression log(z5x4y3). The quotient rule of logarithms states that log(ba)=log(a)−log(b).
Apply Quotient Rule: Apply the quotient rule to the given logarithm. log(z5x4y3)=log(x4y3)−log(z5)
Apply Product Rule: Apply the product rule of logarithms to log(x4y3). The product rule of logarithms states that log(a∗b)=log(a)+log(b). Since y3 is the same as y23, we can write: log(x4y3)=log(x4)+log(y23)
Apply Power Rule: Apply the power rule of logarithms to each term.The power rule of logarithms states that log(an)=nlog(a).log(x4)=4log(x)log(y23)=(23)log(y)log(z5)=5log(z)
Substitute Results: Substitute the results from the power rule back into the expression from Step 2.log(z5x4y3)=(4log(x))+(23)log(y)−(5log(z))
