Can Someone Please help me expand two calculus equations
@hartnn
what did you try? you'd just have to know log rules for that
for the fisrt one I got \[2\log(x)+\log(y)-\log(1000)-\frac{ 1 }{ 3 }\log(z+1) \]
I dont even know where to start on the second one
the first one is correct, just that log 1000 can be written as log 10^3 = 3 log 10 = 3
how do I do the second one
so far the farthest I got on the second one was this much\[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\ln(\frac{ y }{ (z^2)e^-x )})\]
*e^-x
yeah now use the property that log (A/B) = log A - log B
so can you show me that in this equation, I dont exactly understand that
\(\Large \ln \dfrac{y}{z^2e^{-x}} = \ln y - \ln (z^2 e^{-x})\) makes sense?
yeah
can we simplify it more
or is that the final answer
sure, for 2nd term we can use \(\log AB = \log A + \log B\)
could you show me that in equation form as well
\(\large \log z^2 e^{-x} = \log z^2 + \log e^{-x}\) this can be simplified even more
\(\log x^n = n \log x \\ \log z^2 = 2 \log z\)
\(\Large \log e^{-x} = -x \log e = -x \\ (as, \ln e = 1)\)
are you sure thats the answer
because on a similar problem my intructor solved it like this:
those are the steps, se if you get this as the final answer: \(\Large \dfrac{1}{2}[\log y - 2 \log z -x]\)
yup we followed same type of steps
so thats the final answer above
well, if you want, you can distribute the 1/2 (like your prof distributed 1/3)
1/2 log y -log z -x/2
ok sweet
thanks a bunch
