Question

Condensing Logarithmic Expression In Exercise,use the properties of logarithms to rewrite the expression as the logarithm of a single quantity.See example 4.
In(x - 2) - In(x + 2)

Answer 1

Answer:

In (x-2/x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

In (x-2) - In (x+2)

In (x-2/x+2)

Answer 2

Use the quotient rule [ $\text{ln}\frac{a}{b} = \text{ln(a)~-~ln(b)}$ ] to solve.

$\text{ln(x~-~2)}-\text{ln(x~+~2)}$

$\text{ln}\frac{\text{x~-~2}}{\text{x~+~2}}$

Best of Luck!
