Could somebody help me with this log problem?

OpenStudy (cutiecomittee123):

what is it

OpenStudy (unknownrandom):

4log4(3)-log4(4)

OpenStudy (unknownrandom):

The answer can't contain a log

OpenStudy (cutiecomittee123):

I am really rusty and logs because I havent done them in a year or so. But I think you have to convert it to a diferent form inorder to solve it

Nnesha (nnesha):

familiar with the log properties ?

OpenStudy (unknownrandom):

Yep.

Nnesha (nnesha):

alright apply log property start with the power rule

OpenStudy (unknownrandom):

log4(81/4)?

Nnesha (nnesha):

looks good

Nnesha (nnesha):

now set it equal to x or use change of base formula

Nnesha (nnesha):

if we set it equal to x we should change log to exponential form

OpenStudy (unknownrandom):

I can't remember how to do that.

Nnesha (nnesha):

for change of base formula \[\huge\rm log_b a = \frac{ \log a }{ \log b }\]

Nnesha (nnesha):

and if you want to do it by hands so set it equal to x |dw:1443129484346:dw|
