simplify-log_{10}(3.8\times 10^{-4})

simplify

- lo g_{10} (3.8 \cdot 1 0^{- 4})

- lo g_{10} (3.8) + 4

Decimal Notation

3.42021 \dots

Solution steps

- lo g_{10} (3.8 \cdot 1 0^{- 4})

Apply log rule:

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

lo g_{10} (3.8 \cdot 1 0^{- 4}) = lo g_{10} (3.8) + lo g_{10} (1 0^{- 4})

= - (lo g_{10} (3.8) + 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} (3.8) - 4 lo g_{10} (10))

4 lo g_{10} (10) = 4

= - (lo g_{10} (3.8) - 4)

Distribute parentheses

= - (lo g_{10} (3.8)) - (- 4)

Apply minus-plus rules

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

= - lo g_{10} (3.8) + 4

lo g_{3} (32) - lo g_{3} (4)

3 lo g_{9} (x) - \frac{1}{2} lo g_{9} (y) - 5 lo g_{9} (z - 4)

2 ln (a) - ln (2 b) + 3 ln (2)

\frac{1}{3} [lo g_{6} (x) + lo g_{6} (7)] - [lo g_{6} (y)]

lo g_{10} (100 x)
