expand the logarithmic expression log3 d/12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

might wanna put it in equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1409590329830:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_{3}\frac{ d }{ 12 } \] is this what u meat?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's the only thing that looks somewhat correct...Compared to the others

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes-____- i have ti expand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright so how would you expand the base 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

add it to both sides, so they are even with each side for the base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So wouldn't the three be on the top and the bottom of the log if you put it into division form and then you would just put in the D and the 12?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_{3}d-\log_{3}12=\log_{3}d-(2\log_{3}2+\log_{3}3)=\log_{3}d-2\log_{3}2-1\]
