Question

How do I use the properties of logarithms to rewrite 1/2log y p^3q^3-2/3log y p^4q^3

Answer 1

use parentheses please

Answer 2

\[(1/2) \log _{y} (p ^{3}q ^{4})-(2/3) \log _{y}(p ^{4}q ^{3})\]

Answer 3

okay, use the rules
x log a = log a^x
and
log a - log b = log(a/b)

Answer 4

what about the base y ?

Answer 5

shouldn't it be y^2/3 ?

Answer 6

it is constant in both terms.

Answer 7

no. you can manipulated logarithms with the same base in the ways I indicated.

Answer 8

is that all what do ido with the p and q's
