Section 5.3 Properties of Logarithms
Introduction For a > 0, b > 0, b≠ 1, the equations are equivalent. Property Section 5.3 Slide 2 Exponential/Logarithmic Forms Property Definition
Property For x > 0, b > 0 and, b≠ 1 In words: A logarithm of a power of x is the exponent times the logarithm of x. For positive real numbers a, b, and c where b≠ 1, the equations are equivalent.
