simplify-log_{10}(1.6*10^{-4})

simplify

- lo g_{10} (1.6 \cdot 1 0^{- 4})

- lo g_{10} (1.6) + 4

Decimal Notation

3.79588 \dots

Solution steps

- lo g_{10} (1.6 \cdot 1 0^{- 4})

Apply log rule:

lo g_{c} (ab) = lo g_{c} (a) + lo g_{c} (b)

lo g_{10} (1.6 \cdot 1 0^{- 4}) = lo g_{10} (1.6) + lo g_{10} (1 0^{- 4})

= - (lo g_{10} (1.6) + lo g_{10} (1 0^{- 4}))

Apply log rule:

lo g_{a} (x^{b}) = b \cdot lo g_{a} (x)

lo g_{10} (1 0^{- 4}) = - 4 lo g_{10} (10)

= - (lo g_{10} (1.6) - 4 lo g_{10} (10))

4 lo g_{10} (10) = 4

= - (lo g_{10} (1.6) - 4)

Distribute parentheses

= - (lo g_{10} (1.6)) - (- 4)

Apply minus-plus rules

- (- a) = a, - (a) = - a

= - lo g_{10} (1.6) + 4

- lo g_{10} (1.76 \cdot 1 0^{- 5})

lo g_{10} (x y^{3})

4 lo g_{10} (x) - 6 lo g_{10} (x + 2)

ln (\frac{1}{a})

lo g_{a} (x) - lo g_{a} (\frac{1}{x})
