check my answer :D Expand the logarithmic expression. Log (base b) Square root 57/74 My answer: 1/2log(base b) 57-log (base b) 74 (the minus is because they are divided.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

That looks right... except the 1/2 applies to everything, if it's Logb sqrt(57/74) then it should be 1/2(logb 57 - logb 74)

OpenStudy (otonogold):

that's what I got lol

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

You're missing brackets, though 1/2logb 57 - logb 74

OpenStudy (otonogold):

yea they would be 1/2 logb(57-74)

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Wait, now you changed it entirely, 1/2 logb(57-74) isn't correct. 1/2logb 57 - 1/2logb 74 or 1/2(logb 57 - logb 74) either is acceptable.

OpenStudy (otonogold):

My answers: 1/2logb 57 + 1/2logb 74 1/2logb 57 - 1/2logb74 sqrt logb 57 - logb 74 1/2logb (57-74)

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

So do you know which is correct, now?

OpenStudy (otonogold):

B

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Yep.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

This would be so much easier with the equation editor. Typing this sh!t with square roots and logs is disgusting.
