Use the properties of logarithms to write the following expression as one logarithm. 3 ln(x) + 2 ln(y) − 4 ln(x + 1)

Please show your work and explain, I would like to learn how to complete this type of problem!

Step-by-step explanation:

hi! the log properties say that when logs are multiplied as log(xy), they can be expanded and added like log(x)+log(y). when logs are divided like log(x/y), they can be expanded as log(x)-log(y). when the log has an exponent like log(x^y), the exponent can be added to the front of the log like ylog(x). we can use these properties for this problem.

ln(x^3)+ln(y^2)-ln((x+1)^4)

ln(x^3*y^2)-ln((x+1)^4)

answer: 20

step-by-step explanation:

85.560%

step-by-step explanation:

conditional probability is defined as:

p(a|b) = p(a∩b) / p(b)

in other words, the probability that a occurs, given that b has occurred = the probability that both a and b occur / the probability that b occurs.

in this example:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64 & turns 44) / p(turns 44).

if someone turns 64, they must have already turned 44, so:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = p(turns 64) / p(turns 44)

on page 42, we see that of the original 100,000, 94944 turn 44, and 81234 turn 64.   therefore:

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 81234 / 94944

p(turns 64 | turns 44) = 0.85560
