Question

how can properties of logarithms be applied to simplify or solve equations??????

Answer 1

take an exponential equation. i.e x equals something to the power of x. We can use a logarithm to solve this. i.e. to find that x

Answer 2

They can be used to combine multiple log expressions into one. For example

\[\log (x+3)-\log(x+5)=10\]
\[\log \frac{ x+3 }{ x-5 }=10\]
Then you can convert that to an exponential equation and solve fairly easily
