hey guys can you please help with this question... i'll post it up in a sec...

Question

anonymous · Answer

$$\log_{a} (x+y)=  \log_{a}x + \log_{a}y $$  Rewrite this relation in index form (that is without using logarithms)...

anonymous · Answer

What is your question can you explain it more to me??

anonymous · Answer

is it :

$$x + y = xy$$

anonymous · Answer

no you just have to find the relation between the two formulas by using indecies and no logarithms in the final answer.

anonymous · Answer

What do you mean by index form??

richyw · Answer

$$\text{use } a^xa^y=a^{x+y}$$

anonymous · Answer

@waterineyes yes your answer was correct... can you please show me how you got it...

anonymous · Answer

See use the formula on right hand side:

$$Log_x(a) + Log_x(b) = Log_x(a b)$$

So,

$$Log_a(x + y) = Log_a(xy)$$

Taking Anti Logarithm both the sides,

$$x + y = xy$$

anonymous · Answer

so haha anti log? i get it sorta...

anonymous · Answer

Anti Log means reverse of log like anti derivative etc etc..
