Chapter 9 - Section 9.6 - Properties of Logarithms - Exercise Set: 75



Work Step by Step

The quotient property of logarithms tells us that $log_{b}\frac{x}{y}=log_{b}x-log_{b}y$ (where x, y, and, b are positive real numbers and $b\ne1$). Therefore, the term on the right side is equivalent to $ log_{7}\frac{10}{5}=log_{7}10-log_{7}5$, which is not equivalent to the term on the left side. This statement is false.
