6log%282%2C%28x%29%29-36log%282%2C%28y%29%29 Start with the given expression.


log%282%2C%28x%5E6%29%29-log%282%2C%28y%5E%2836%29%29%29 Rewrite the logs using the identity y%2Alog%28b%2C%28x%29%29=log%28b%2C%28x%5Ey%29%29


log%282%2C%28%28x%5E6%29%2F%28y%5E%2836%29%29%29%29 Combine the logs using the identity log%28b%2C%28A%29%29-log%28b%2C%28B%29%29=log%28b%2C%28A%2FB%29%29


So where every variable is positive.
