Evaluate: log7 14+log3 81+log4 1-log7 2

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf log_{7}14 + log_{3}81+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\) like this ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

I am going to be posting each step to give you time to process.\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf log_{7}(7 \times 2) + log_{3}81+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf log_{7}(7) +log_{7}(2) + log_{3}81+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 1 +log_{7}(2) + log_{3}81+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 1 +log_{7}(2) + log_{3}(3^{4})+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 1 +log_{7}(2) + 4(log_{3}3)+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\) \(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 1 +log_{7}(2) + 4(1)+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\) \(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 1 +log_{7}(2) + 4+log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\) \(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 5 +log_{7}(2) +log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

you have log_7 2 one positive and one negative, so they cancel. \(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 5 +log_{7}(2) +log_{4}1-log_{7}2 }\) turns into \(\Large\color{red}{ \bf 5 +log_{4}1 }\)

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

So it is approximately just 5.

Wow that's insane but I love it :) thanks you've been a wonderful help

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

anytime !

I do have one more if you wouldn't mind...
