Question #fc497
1 Answer
See below
Explanation:
a) Using the following two logarithmic properties:
-
#log_a(xy) = log_ax + log_ay# -
#log_b(x^n) = n log_a(x)#
to rewrite the expressions:
In terms of
I think this is what they are after.
b) Use the following logarithmic property:
to change the expressions to:
Now use the following logarithmic property to further simply the second equation:
If we let:
and
We can rewrite the equations above:
Solving by Elimination - let's subtract the two equations to eliminate
Substituting
So:
and
