Advanced Algebra: Intro to Logarithm Properties

Logarithm Addition Property

a^b = c | log_a ^{c = b}

 log_B ^A  + log_B ^C = log_B ^(A*C)     (B = Base)

log₂ ⁸ + log₂ ³² = log₂ ⁽²⁵⁶⁾

3           5                 8

Logarithm Subtraction Property

a^b = c | log_a ^{c = b}

log_B ^A - log_B ^C = log_B ^(A/C) (B = Base)

log₃ ^1/9 + log₃ ⁸⁹ = log₃ ^{(1/9 * 1/81)}
