question is as below

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if p>1, q>1 and r>, then \[^{p}\log \sqrt[3]{r}^{q}\log p ^{6} \log \sqrt{q}\] is??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is the first p multiplied with the whole term?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yess but to reconfirm i will pot the pic here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, I did not understand the question. Why is that p,q and r written in the superscript before log. I am confused!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use the change of base formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant understand??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i should change to base 10 is it??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i am clueless @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \log_p \sqrt[3]{r} . \log_q p^6 . \log_r \sqrt{q}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the given expression is like that right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ganeshie8 Hey, but I thought that p was written in the superscript before log..can we take it in base the way you've done it?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

it seems the printing machine has some problem with subscripts...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know. I was confused about that thing only!

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \log_p \sqrt[3]{r} . \log_q p^6 . \log_r \sqrt{q}\] \[\large = \dfrac{\log \sqrt[3]{r}}{\log p } . \dfrac{\log p^6}{\log q} . \dfrac{\log \sqrt{q}}{\log r}\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use log identities and cancel whatever you can

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will i get \[\log \sqrt{r} \times \log p ^{5} \times \log q\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

no, you need to use below identity : \(\large \log a^m = m \log a\)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large = \dfrac{\log \sqrt[3]{r}}{\log p } . \dfrac{\log p^6}{\log q} . \dfrac{\log \sqrt{q}}{\log r} \] \[\large = \dfrac{\frac{1}{3}\log r}{\log p } . \dfrac{6\log p}{\log q} . \dfrac{\frac{1}{2}\log q}{\log r} \]
