ADVANCED EXERCISES-Logarithms


(1) Rewrite each expression so that there are no logs of products, quotients or powers.

  1. ln (e4x )

  2. ln [(x2 - 1) / (x-1)2], x > 1
SOLUTION:
(a) ln (e4x ) = (1/2)ln(x) + 4x

(b) ln [(x2 - 1) / (x-1)2] = ln(x+1) - ln(x-1). Since x > 1 here, the logs are all defined.
