How do you evaluate 3 log_3 (9) - 4 log_3 (3)3log3(9)−4log3(3)? Precalculus Properties of Logarithmic Functions Logarithm-- Inverse of an Exponential Function 1 Answer A. S. Adikesavan May 19, 2016 2 Explanation: Use log _b a = log a/log b, n log a = log a^n and log_b b=1logba=logalogb,nloga=loganandlogbb=1. Here, 3 log_3 9 - 4 log_3 33log39−4log33 =3(log 9/log 3)-4(1)=3(log9log3)−4(1) =3(log (3^2)/log 3)-4=3(log(32)log3)−4 =6(log 3/log 3)-4=6-4 = 2=6(log3log3)−4=6−4=2 Answer link Related questions What is a logarithm?
