if you need to write it as a single log, then use a rule for power,quotient ,sum, and difference

2log%28x%29+-+log%28x%5E2%29+%2B+log+%282%2Fx%29+%2B+log%28x%29...first group

log%28%28x%5E2%2Fx%5E2%29%29+%2B+log+%28%28%282%2Fx%29x%29%29
log%28%281%29%29+%2B+log+%28%28%282cross%28x%29%2Fcross%28x%29%29%29%29
log%28%281%2A2%29%29
