SOLUTION: Express as a single logarithm and, if possible, simplify.
2/3[ln (w2 - 16) - ln(w + 4)] + ln (w + y)
These are the possible answers:
1) ln (w - 4)2/3(w + y)
2) ln (w -

Question 750025: Express as a single logarithm and, if possible, simplify.
2/3[ln (w2 - 16) - ln(w + 4)] + ln (w + y)
These are the possible answers:
1) ln (w - 4)2/3(w + y)
2) ln (w - 4)2/3(w - y)
3) ln (w - 4)(w - y)
4) ln (w + 4)2/3(w + y)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Express as a single logarithm and, if possible, simplify.
2/3[ln (w2 - 16) - ln(w + 4)] + ln (w + y)
----
(2/3)ln[(w^2-16)/(x+4)] + ln(w+y)
----
= ln(w-4)^(2/3) + ln(w+y)
-----
= ln[(w-4)^(2/3)*(w+y)]
