Question

Use the properties of logarithms to rewrite the following expression. Simplify the result of possible. Assume all variables represent positive real numbers.log_2(3x+7y)

Answer 1

Answer:

A. This cannot be simplified

Explanations:

Note that:

$\log _a(b+c)\ne log_ab+log_ac$

The given expression is:

$\log _2(3x\text{ + 7y)}$

Based on the rule written above, the given expression cannot be simplified
