SOLUTION: write 1+log(base 2) X^3 as a single logarithm. *i dont understand how to do the qustion without changing it into an equation, which would be incorrect. Ex. 1+log(base 2) X^3

Question 556295: write 1+log(base 2) X^3 as a single logarithm.

*i dont understand how to do the qustion without changing it into an equation, which would be incorrect. Ex. 1+log(base 2) X^3
log(base 2)X^3 = 1 (wrong!)
how would i do it ??

1 = log2(2)

adding logs means multiplying quantities

log2(2) + log2(x^3) = log2(2x^3)
