To combine the expression \( \log_3 z + \log_3 2 + \log_3 4 \) into a single logarithm, we can use the properties of logarithms.
-
The sum of logarithms can be expressed as the logarithm of the product: \[ \log_3 z + \log_3 2 + \log_3 4 = \log_3 (z \cdot 2 \cdot 4) \]
-
Calculate the product: \[ 2 \cdot 4 = 8 \]
-
Now, substitute back: \[ \log_3 (z \cdot 8) = \log_3 (8z) \]
So, the expression \( \log_3 z + \log_3 2 + \log_3 4 \) as a single logarithm is \( \log_3 (8z) \).
The correct response is:
log3(8z)
