Express log(ab) + log(sub 100)(a) in terms of u and v if u = log(a^2) and v = log(1/b)
------------
If you mean logs base 10 and

----
u = log(a^2) --> u = 2log(a)
log(a) = u/2
------
v = log(1/b) --> v = log(1) - log(b) = 0 - log(b)
log(b) = -v
--------

==================================
log(ab) = log(a) + log(b) = u/2 - v
=================
