- IntroductionA Summary of Logarithm Rules
- 1.Select the correct answer:a)Which of the following correctly states the
"product law"?
i)log28+log24=log212
ii)log28+log24=log232
iii)log28⋅log24=log232b)Which of the following correctly states the
"quotient law"?
i)logb15−logb3=logb5
ii)logb15−logb3=logb12
iii)logb32logb8=logb(41)c)Which of the following correctly states the
"power law"?
i)(log100)3=log1003
ii)(log100)3=3log100
iii)log1003=3log100 - 2.Evaluate and state the laws involved in each step of
the calculation:
