Use the following information to help you answer (a), (b), and (c).
log(base d) X = 4
log(base d) Y = 8
for constants d, X, and Y.
Compute each of the following:
(a) log(base d) (XY) = log(X) + log(Y) = 4+8 = 12
------------------------------
(b) log(base d) (X/Y) = log(X)-log(Y) = 4-8 = -4
------------------------------
(c) log(base Y) (X) = log(X)/log(Y) = 4/8 = 1/2
--------------
Cheers,
