Change of Base. Sometimes we will be faced with logarithmic or exponential are not the same. Being able to change from one base to these situations. Let's have a look at the change of base functions. Let's try and prove the change of base formula.
The Change of Base formula is also useful for simplifying expressions involving logarithms of the same number to different bases, as the next 2 examples show. Example 6 Simplify 1 log4 5 + 1 log3 5. We know that 1 log4 5 = log5 4, and likewise 1 log3 5 = log5 3. Once everything is expressed to the same base we can use the properties of ...
p. (2) log. 1p. x = log x. p. (3) log b4 x2 = log x. b. 9. Given that log 2 = x, log 3 = y and log 7 = z, express the following expressions in terms of x, y, and z.
Product Rule for Logarithms. The following examples show how to expand logarithmic expressions using each of the rules above. Example 1. Expand log2493 . log2493 = 3 • log249 . The answer is 3 • log249. Use the Power Rule for Logarithms. Example 2. Expand log3(7a) log3(7a) = log3(7 • a) = log37 + log3a. The answer is log37 + log3a.

Simplify each of the following logarithmic expressions, giving the final answer as a single fraction. a) log 24 b) log 84 c) log 2 24 ( ) d) 5 1 log 125 1 2, 3 2, 3 4, 3 2 −
Section 1. Logarithms. The mathematics of logarithms and exponentials occurs naturally in many branches of science. It is very important in solving problems related to growth and decay. The growth and decay may be that of a plant or a population, a crystalline structure or money in the bank.
