Express in terms of sums or differences:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Log%28sqrt%28x%5E4%2Fyz%29%29\" Rewrite the square root as an exponent:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Log%28x%5E4%2Fyz%29%5E%281%2F2%29\" Apply the \"power\" rule.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29Log%28x%5E4%2Fyz%29\" Now apply the \"quotient\" rule.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29%28Log%28x%5E4%29-Log%28yz%29%29\" You can apply the \"power\" rule again to the first log.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29%284Log%28x%29-Log%28yz%29%29\" Now apply the \"product\" rule to the second logarithm.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29%284Log%28x%29-%28Log%28y%29%2BLog%28z%29%29%29\" Finally, multiply through by 1/2 to simplify.
\n" ); document.write( "\"2Log%28x%29-%281%2F2%29Log%28y%29-%281%2F2%29Log%28z%29\" and this can also be written as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Log%28x%5E2%29-Log%28sqrt%28y%29%29-Log%28sqrt%28z%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
