Table of Contents Slide 8 Logarithm Properties - Simplifying Using Combinations In working the previous problem, two steps are normally skipped. When all logs are written to the same base, if a (+) sign comes before the log, write the expression in the numerator... and if a (-) sign appears before the log, write the expression in the denominator...
