Question 1168253: hello there. I am struggling with this problem:
If possible, write the expression ln(x(2-x)^4) using sums and/or differences of logarithmic expressions that do not contain the logarithms of products, quotients or powers.
If it is not possible, enter NA.
ln(x(2-x)^4) = ?

ln%28x%282-x%29%5E4%29

Use the rules of logarithms log%28B%2CA%2AC%29+=+log%28B%2CA%29%2Blog%28B%2CC%29 and ln%28Y%29=log%28e%2CY%29

ln%28x%29%2Bln%282-x%29%5E4%29

Use the rules of logarithms log%28B%2CA%5EC%29+=+C%2Alog%28B%2CA%29 and ln%28Y%29=log%28e%2CY%29 

ln%28x%29%2B4%2Aln%282-x%29%5E%22%22%29%5E%22%22

That's as far as it can be taken.
