simplify log_{2}(4x^2)

Solution

simplify

lo g_{2} (4 x^{2})

Solution

2 + 2 lo g_{2} (x)

Solution steps

lo g_{2} (4 x^{2})

Factor the number:

4 = 2^{2}

= lo g_{2} (2^{2} x^{2})

Apply log rule:

lo g_{a} (x y) = lo g_{a} (x) + lo g_{a} (y)

lo g_{2} (2^{2} x^{2}) = lo g_{2} (2^{2}) + lo g_{2} (x^{2})

= lo g_{2} (2^{2}) + lo g_{2} (x^{2})

Apply log rule:

lo g_{a} (a^{b}) = b

lo g_{2} (2^{2}) = 2

= 2 + lo g_{2} (x^{2})

Apply log rule

lo g_{a} (x^{b}) = b \cdot lo g_{a} (x), assuming x > 0

lo g_{2} (x^{2}) = 2 lo g_{2} (x)

= 2 + 2 lo g_{2} (x)
