SOLUTION: Can anyone help me with this one? Assume that x,y,z and b are positive numbers. Use the properties of logarithms to write each expression in terms of the logarithms of x,y, and z.

Question 315420: Can anyone help me with this one? Assume that x,y,z and b are positive numbers. Use the properties of logarithms to write each expression in terms of the logarithms of x,y, and z.
log(base b)x + log(base b)(x+2)- log(base b)8
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
log(base b)x + log(base b)(x+2)- log(base b)8
---
Applicable Rules:
log(A) + log(B) = log(A*B)
log(A) - log(B) = log(A/B)
============================
= logb[x*(x+2)/8]
---
= logb[(x^2+2x)/8]
=========================
