Three Laws of Logarithms
I. Use the properties of logarithms to write the
expression
as a sum,difference and/or constant multiple of logarithms.
| 1. | log37x | 4. | |
| 2. | log3(7/x) | 5. | |
| 3. | log3x7 | 6. |
II. Use the properties of logarithms to write the expression
as the logarithm of a single quantity.
| 7. | logax + logay | 11. | (1/3) loga4x |
| 8. | logax - loga(y+1) | 12. | log x - 2[log(x+2) + log(x-2)] |
| 9. | 3 logax + 2logay | 13. | (1/2)[log(x+1) + 2 log(x-1)] + 2 log x |
| 10. | logax + 2loga(y+1) - 3logaz | 14. |
III. Find exact values without using a calculator.
| 15. | log2 4 2.3 | 17. | 5 ln e3 |
| 16. | log3 18 - log 3 2 | 18. | log6 3 + log 6 12 |
