Logarithm property of a product?
Logarithm of a product:
= loga(MN)+logaM + logaN
Evaluate each expression.
Reminder: When a logarithm is written "log" without an explicit base, it refers to the common logarithm, log10

b) log 1000
a) -1
b) 3
How can we rewrite this statement as a logarithmic equation?
be = n
logb n = e
What is the change of base formula for logarithms?
Logarithm property of a quotient?
Logarithm of a quotient:
= logaM/N−logaM - logaN
Use the properties of logarithms to expand log x/z4
Each logarithm should involve only one variable and should not have any exponents. Assume that all variables are positive.
logx - 4logz
How can we rewrite this statement as an exponential equation?
loga c = b
ab = c
Evaluate each expression.
