How to use the product rule of logarithms to solve an equation, log6 (x) +log6 (x-9)=2

The video tutorial explains how to solve logarithmic equations, focusing on combining logarithms with the same base and converting them into exponential form. It demonstrates the process of solving an equation with two logarithms, using properties of logarithms to combine them, and then applying the zero product property to find solutions. The tutorial emphasizes common misconceptions and provides step-by-step guidance to ensure understanding.

What is a common misconception about solving equations with two logarithms?

• They can be canceled out if they have the same base.

• They can be added together.

• They can be subtracted from each other.

• They can be divided by each other.

How can logarithms with the same base be combined?

• By multiplying them.

• By subtracting them.

• By adding them.

• By dividing them.

What is the next step after combining logarithms into a single logarithm?

• Divide it by the base.

• Convert it into a fraction.

• Rewrite it in exponential form.

• Add a constant to it.

What is the purpose of setting the quadratic equation to zero?

• To find the base of the logarithm.

• To apply the zero product property.

• To simplify the equation.

• To eliminate the variable.

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation obtained in the final section?

• X = 9 and X = -4

• X = 12 and X = -3

• X = 15 and X = -2

• X = 6 and X = -6
