8log₈(x)+16log₈(y)
=log₈(x⁸)+log₈(y¹⁶)
=log₈(x⁸y¹⁶)
=log₈((xy²)⁸)
The expression 8 lo g 8 x + 16 lo g 8 y condenses to lo g 8 ( x 8 y 16 ) or lo g 8 (( x y 2 ) 8 ) . This is done using the power rule and the addition rule of logarithms. The final answer shows the logarithm of a single quantity that combines both variables.
