5.3 Properties of Logarithmic Functions and their Graphs
A. Expanding and Condensing Logarithms
B. Evaluate Logs without a Calculator

A.Properties: There are 3 big ones!
• 1. PRODUCT PROPERTY:• Loga(uv) = logau + logav• I can use this to expand something:• ln(xy) = • Or I can use this to condense something:• ln a + ln b =• WATCH OUT! You cannot do anything
with ln(a + b). So tempting.

2. Quotient Property:
• Loga(u/v) = logau – logav
• With this, I can expand things:
• ln(a/b) =
• Or I can condense things:
• ln a – ln b =
• But the temptations are lurking: We cannot do anything with ln (a – b).

3. Power Property
• Logaun = nlogau
• I can use this to expand expressions:
• lnx2 =
• Or I can use this to condense expressions:
• 4lny =
Now let’s do some practice with these 3 big properties.
