Question

Given that log 2 = a and log 3 = b, write `log sqrt(96)` in terms of a and b

Sum

Solution

log 2 = a and log 3 = b

`log sqrt(96) = 1/2 log (96)`

= `1/2 log (2^5 xx 3)`

= `1/2(log 2^5 + log 3)`  ...[log mn = log m + log n]

= `1/2 (5log 2 + log 3)`  ..[log mn = nlog m]

= `(5"a" + "b")/2`
