Remember these two combinations: logab=loga+logb, log(a/b)=loga-logb
3logx=logx^3
(1/2)log(x+2)=log(x+2)^(1/2)
2log(z-4)=log(z-4)^2
so the given expression can be combined into log{[(x^3)(z-4)^2]/(x+2)^(1/2)}
The ratio is 5:4:7:9. The reason why they didn't write it together is that the bananas are written in different form.
<u>The answer is C</u>. This is because the square of 8 is 64 and the square of 9 is 81. The only number in between those choices is C; 71.
Hope this helps :)
(mind giving me brainliest answer? it helps!)
