Use the product, quotient, and power rules of logarithms to rewrite the expression as a single logarithm. assume that all variables represent positive real numbers. 7log x + 2log y log(14xy) log(x7 + y2) log(x7y2) log(7x + 2y)

log(x^7·y^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules are ...

... log(a^b) = b·log(a)

... log(ab) = log(a) +log(b)

The first term, 7log(x) can be rewritten as log(x^7). Note that an exponentiation operator is needed when this is written as text.

The second term 2log(y) can be rewritten as log(y^2). These two rewrites make use of the first rule above.

Now, you have the sum ...

... log(x^7) +log(y^2)

The second rule tells you this can be rewritten as ...

... log(x^7·y^2) . . . . . seems to match the intent of the 3rd selection

  about 5.6 days

step-by-step explanation:

we can fill the given information into the decay equation and solve for the value of t at which half the sample remains.

the half-life is about 5.6 days.

-13

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x-5 for f(-4)

f(-4)   means let x=-4

f(-4) = 2(-4) -5

f(-4) =-8-5

      = -13
