Expand the Logarithmic Expression log of square root of b^7c
Problem
Solution
Rewrite the square root as a fractional exponent using the property
√(,x)=x(1/2)
Apply the power rule for logarithms,
(log_)(xn)=n*(log_)(x) to move the exponent to the front.
Apply the product rule for logarithms,
(log_)(x*y)=(log_)(x)+(log_)(y) to separate the terms inside the parentheses.
Apply the power rule again to the term
(log_)(b7) to move the exponent7 to the front.
Distribute the fraction
1/2 to both terms to reach the final expanded form.
