Answer:
Suppose that:
log10A=a
log10B=b
log10C=c
I need to express the following in terms of a,b,c.
log10A+2log10(1/A)
log10(((AB)5)/C)
log10((100A2)/(B4⋅C−−√3))
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember your laws of logs:
log10(XY)=log10(X)+log10(Y)
log10(X/Y)=log10(X)−log10(Y)
log10(XY)=Y⋅log10(X)
So for the first one: log10(A)+2⋅log10(1/A) =log10(A)+2⋅log10(A−1) =log10(A)−2⋅log10(A) =−log10(A)=−a
Alternatively: log10(A)+2⋅log10(1/A) =log10(A)+2⋅log10(1)−2⋅log10(A)=a+2⋅0−2a=−a (because log(1)=0)
