Q. Write the expression ln2+4 \ln 2+4 as a single logarithm in simplest form without any negative exponents.\newlineAnswer: ln() \ln (\square)
  1. Understand Logarithm Properties: Understand the properties of logarithms The problem asks us to combine ln2\ln 2 and 44 into a single logarithm. To do this, we need to use the properties of logarithms. One of the properties is that the logarithm of a product is the sum of the logarithms (log(a)+log(b)=log(ab)\log(a) + \log(b) = \log(ab)). We will use this property to combine ln2\ln 2 and 44 into a single logarithm.
  2. Convert Number 44 to Logarithm: Convert the number 44 into a logarithm with the same base To use the property from Step 11, we need to express the number 44 as a logarithm with the same base, which is the natural logarithm (base ee). We can write 44 as ln(e4)\ln(e^4) because the natural logarithm of ee to any power is just that power (ln(ex)=x\ln(e^x) = x).
  3. Combine Logarithms: Combine the two logarithms into one\newlineNow that we have both numbers as natural logarithms, we can combine them using the property from Step 11:\newlineln2+ln(e4)=ln(2e4)\ln 2 + \ln(e^4) = \ln(2 \cdot e^4)
  4. Simplify Expression: Simplify the expression The expression ln(2e4)\ln(2 \cdot e^4) is already in its simplest form. There are no negative exponents, and it is written as a single logarithm.
