Condense and Expand Logs Solve Act

Write log_b(x/y) as two logs

• log_bx-log_by

• log_bx+log_by

• log_bx*log_by

• log_bx/log_by

Use multiple log properties to write as a single log:
log₂x -  5log₂y

• log₂(x/y⁵)

• log₂(xy⁵)

• log₂(x/y)⁵

• log₂(x/5y)

Rewrite log_b(xⁿ)

• nlog_bx

• (log_bx)ⁿ

• xⁿlog_bx

• log_b(xⁿ)

Change to Exponential Form:
log₆36 = 2

• 2⁶=36

• 6²=36

• 36²=6

• 36⁶=2

When you have two log expressions separated by a minus sign (-), we really need to ___________ them to simplify into one log expression.

• add

• subtract

• multiply

• divide

Expand the following logarithm: 
log₂ 5x.

• log₂ 5 - log₂ x 

• log₂ 5 + log₂ x 

• 2log 5 + 2log x

• log5 2 + log_x 2

Write as a single log: log 12 + 2 log x

• log (12 + 2x)

• log (14x)

• log (12 * 2x)

• log (12x²)

Simplify: 2log(x) + 3log(xy)

• log(x⁵y³)

• log(5xy)

• 5log(x²y)

• log(6x²y)

Use multiple log properties to write as a sum or difference of two logs: log(4x³) 

• log 4 + 3log x

• 3log 4 + 3log x

• 3log 4 + log x

• log 12 + log x

Solve:

log (x - 1) - log (x - 2) = log 5

• 7

• 4/9

• 9/4

• 1/7
