Q. Express the given expression without logs, in simplest form. Assume all variables represent positive values.(8log8(6w3)+log8(2z3))Answer:
Apply Logarithm Properties: Apply the properties of logarithms to combine the log terms.The expression given is 8log8(6w3)+log8(2z3). According to the properties of logarithms, specifically the product rule, logb(m)+logb(n)=logb(m∗n), we can combine the log terms under a single log with base 8.
Combine Log Terms: Combine the log terms using the product rule.Using the product rule, we get:8log8(6w3⋅2z3)
Simplify Inside Log: Simplify the expression inside the log.Now we multiply the terms inside the log:6w3×2z3=12w3z3So the expression becomes:8log8(12w3z3)
Apply Property of Logarithms: Apply the property of logarithms that blogb(x)=x. According to this property, since the base of the log and the base of the exponent are the same, the expression simplifies to the argument of the log: 8log8(12w3z3)=12w3z3
