Section 9.7 Properties of Logarithms • Review Basic Properties of Logarithms • logb1=0 logbb=1 logbbx=x blogbx=x • The Product Rule • The Quotient Rule • The Power Rule • Writing Expressions as a Single Logarithm • The Change of Base Formula
Basic Properties of Logarithms • For any base a (0<a and a≠1) • loga1=0 • a0 = 1 • logaa=1 • a1 = a • logaax=x • ax = ax • alogax=x • ax = logax
The Change of Base Formula • If a, b, and x are positive, a ≠ 1, b≠ 1
