Question 203961: Hi all, I was hoping to get some help with the following log problem: I need to
evaluate the following using logarithmic rules: log(2) 4 - log(2) 2 + log(2) 1.
(The 2's in the brackets after log means the number is in place below it, I was unsure of how to show this correctly when typing out the equation.)
Thanks everyone, -Nick.
