Approximate the logarithm using the properties of logarithms, given the values logb 2 ≈ 0.3562, logb 3 ≈ 0.5646, and logb 5 ≈ 0.8271. Round your result to four decimal places.
Ok so here are the proceudures: for the first one: logb18 = logb 2x3x3 logb 2x3x3 = logb2+ logb3 + logb3 logb18 = .3562 + 2 x .5646 logb18 = 1.4854 For the second one: logb6 = logb6 + logbB logb6b = logb2+logb3+logbB logb6b= .3562 + .5646 + 1 logb6b = 1.9208 And finally for the third one: Log b 5/2 = logb5 -logb2 Logb 5/2= .8271 - .3562 Log b 5/2 = .4709 I hope this is what you are looking for
