Express log square root of 3/5 in terms of x and y( I don't know how to put in the square root on the computer).
log3=x log5=y
LET LOG {SQRT(3/5)}=Z...HENCE USING LOG (X)^N=N*LOG X,
AND LOG (X/Y)=LOG X - LOG Y.................................WE GET
Z=(1/2){LOG (3/5)}=(1/2)(LOG 3 - LOG 5 )=(1/2)(X-Y)
