How do I write this expression as a single log?
3logx^1/6 + 2log3x - 5logx - 4logy + 1/2logx
Write the exponent equiv

reduce fraction

first and last logs cancel
log%28%289x%5E2%29%29+-+log%28%28x%5E5%29%29+-+log%28%28y%5E4%29%29
log%28%28%289x%5E2%29%2F%28x%5E5%2Ay%5E4%29%29%29
log%28%289%2F%28x%5E%285-2%29%2Ay%5E4%29%29%29 = log%28%289%2F%28x%5E3%2Ay%5E4%29%29%29
