Algebra.Com's Answer #273820 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! use the properties of logarithms to elimate products, quotients and exponents from the following expression: log3[9 sqrt(x-5)/(x-1)^(5)] \n" ); document.write( "----------------------- \n" ); document.write( "log3[9 sqrt(x-5)/(x-1)^(5)] \n" ); document.write( "= 2 + (1/2)log(x-5) - 5log(x-1) \n" ); document.write( "or \n" ); document.write( "= 2 + log(sqrt(x-5)) - 5log(x-1) \n" ); document.write( "---------- \n" ); document.write( "The middle term has to be either with the 1/2 coefficient, or the sq root. \n" ); document.write( "All logs base 3. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
