Answer:
log(7)
Step-by-step explanation:
Product Rule:
Let m and n be two numbers, if they share a common base, following law applies:
- [tex]\sf log_{}(m) \: + log(n ) = log(m \times n) = log(mn)[/tex]
Quotient Rule:
Let m and n be two numbers, if they share a common base, following law applies:
- [tex]\sf log( \dfrac{m}{n}) \: = log(m) - log(n)[/tex]
Question:
[tex]\sf log\dfrac{14}{3}+log\dfrac{11}{5}-log\dfrac{22}{15}[/tex]
Solution:
Apply Product law to log(14/3) and log(11/5):
- [tex]\sf log( \dfrac{14}{3} \times \dfrac{11}{5} ) - log( \dfrac{22}{15} ) [/tex]
Now apply quotient law to log(22/15):
- [tex] \sf log( \dfrac{14 \times 11}{15} \: \div \dfrac{22}{15} ) [/tex]
Applying Reciprocal Rule of division:
- [tex]\sf log( \dfrac{14 \times 11}{15} \: \times \dfrac{15}{22} ) [/tex]
Cancel wherever required:(15 and 15 cancel, 11 and 22 goes to 1/2)
- [tex]\sf log( \dfrac{14}{2} )[/tex]
Remember: Every term shares a common base of 10.
