5%28ln%28x%29-ln%28xy%5E2%29%29%2B3ln%28z%5E4%29
5ln%28x%29-5ln%28xy%5E2%29%2B3ln%28z%5E4%29
exponent rule: bloga=loga%5Eb
ln%28x%5E5%29-ln%28%28xy%5E2%29%5E5%29%2Bln%28%28z%5E4%29%5E3%29
ln%28x%5E5%29-ln%28x%5E5y%5E10%29%2Bln%28z%5E12%29
now combine the logs using the multiplican and division properties.
ln%28%28x%5E5z%5E12%29%2F%28x%5E5y%5E10%29%29
simplify
ln%28%28z%5E12%29%2F%28y%5E10%29%29
