To combine the expression \( \log_3 z + \log_3 2 + \log_3 4 \) into a single logarithm, we can use the properties of logarithms.

  1. The sum of logarithms can be expressed as the logarithm of the product: \[ \log_3 z + \log_3 2 + \log_3 4 = \log_3 (z \cdot 2 \cdot 4) \]

  2. Calculate the product: \[ 2 \cdot 4 = 8 \]

  3. 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)
