2Log5 2/5+log5√9-log5 72/125+log5√10

Answer 1

To simplify the expression, we can use the properties of logarithms:

1. log(a) + log(b) = log(a * b)
2. log(a) - log(b) = log(a / b)
3. log(x^n) = n * log(x)

Using these properties, we can rewrite the expression:

2Log5 (2/5) + log5 (√9) - log5 (72/125) + log5 (√10)

= Log5 ((2/5)^2) + Log5 (√9) - Log5 (72/125) + Log5 (√10)

= Log5 (4/25) + Log5 (3) - Log5 (72/125) + Log5 (√10)

= Log5 ((4/25) * 3) - Log5 (72/125) + Log5 (√10)

= Log5 (12/25) - Log5 (72/125) + Log5 (√10)

Now, let's simplify the fractions inside the logarithms:

12/25 = (2^2 * 3) / (5^2) = (2^2 * 3) / (5^2 * 5^2) = (2^2 * 3) / 5^4 = 4 * 3/625 = 12/625

72/125 = (2^3 * 3^2) / (5^3) = (2^3 * 3^2) / (5^3 * 5^2) = (2^3 * 3^2) / 5^5 = 8 * 9/3125 = 72/3125

Now, substitute these simplified fractions back into the expression:

= Log5 (12/625) - Log5 (72/3125) + Log5 (√10)

Since 625 = 5^4 and 3125 = 5^5, we can simplify further:

= Log5 (12/5^4) - Log5 (72/5^5) + Log5 (√10)

Now, use the property log(x^n) = n * log(x) to move the exponent down:

= Log5 (12) - 4 * Log5 (5) - Log5 (72) + 5 * Log5 (5) + Log5 (√10)

Since log5 (5) = 1, we can simplify further:

= Log5 (12) - 4 + Log5 (72) + 5 + Log5 (√10)

Now, we simplify the square root of 10:

√10 = 10^(1/2) = 5^(1/2 * log5 10) = 5^(log5√10)

Therefore, Log5 (√10) = 1/2 * Log5 (10)

= 1/2 * 1 = 1/2

Now substitute all the simplified values back into the expression:

= Log5 (12) - 4 + Log5 (72) + 5 + 1/2

= Log5 (12 * 72) + 1/2

= Log5 (864) + 1/2

So, the simplified expression is Log5 (864) + 1/2.

Answer 2

I really do not understand this

Answer 3

I apologize for the confusion. Let's go through the simplification process step by step.

The given expression is:

2Log5 (2/5) + log5 (√9) - log5 (72/125) + log5 (√10)

First, let's work on the logarithms individually:

1. Log5 (2/5):
This can be simplified as (2/5)^(log5 2) using the logarithm base change property. However, let's first convert 2/5 to a power of 5:

2/5 = (2 * 5^0) / (5^1) = (2 * 5^0) / (5 * 5^0) = 2/5^1

Now, we can rewrite Log5 (2/5) as (2/5^(1))^log5 2 = (2/5^1)^log5 2 = (2/5)^log5 2

2. Log5 (√9):
The square root of 9 can be written as 9^(1/2). Therefore, Log5 (√9) = Log5 (9^(1/2)) = (9^(1/2))^log5 9 = 3^log5 9

3. Log5 (72/125):
Similar to the first term, let's rewrite 72/125 as a power of 5:

72/125 = (8 * 5^2) / (5^3) = (8/5 * 5^2) / (5 * 5^2) = 8/5^1 / 5^3

Now, we can rewrite Log5 (72/125) as (8/5^1 / 5^3)^log5 9 = (8/5)^log5 9 / 5^(1 * log5 9) = (8/5)^log5 9 / 5^log5 9

4. Log5 (√10):
We can rewrite this as Log5 (10^(1/2)) = (10^(1/2))^log5 10 = 10^(1/2 * log5 10) = 10^(log5√10)

Now that we have simplified the individual logarithms, let's substitute the values back into the original expression:

2Log5 (2/5) + log5 (√9) - log5 (72/125) + log5 (√10)

= 2[(2/5)^log5 2] + (3^log5 9) - [(8/5)^log5 9 / 5^log5 9] + 10^(log5√10)

Unfortunately, we cannot simplify this expression any further without knowing the specific values of log5 2, log5 9, and log5 10.
