Evaluate log base b of x^4

Problem

(log_b)(x4)

Solution

1. Identify the logarithmic expression, which is a logarithm with base b and an argument of x raised to the power of 4

2. Apply the power rule for logarithms, which states that (log_b)(Mp)=p*(log_b)(M)

3. Move the exponent 4 to the front of the logarithm as a coefficient.

Final Answer

(log_b)(x4)=4*(log_b)(x)
