Q. Write the expression below as a single logarithm in simplest form.2logb9Answer: logb(□)
Question Prompt: Question Prompt: Write the expression 2logb9 as a single logarithm in simplest form.
Identify Property: Identify the property used to write the expression as a single logarithm.The expression 2logb9 involves a logarithm with a coefficient. To write this as a single logarithm, we use the power property of logarithms.Power Property: alogb(P)=logb(Pa)
Apply Power Property: Apply the power property to the given expression.Using the power property, we can move the coefficient 2 inside the logarithm as an exponent of the argument.2logb9=logb(92)
Calculate Exponent: Calculate the exponent.Now we calculate 92 to simplify the expression inside the logarithm.92=81
Write Final Expression: Write the final expression.The expression as a single logarithm in simplest form is:logb(81)
