Q log10(2yz) - log10y ⋅ log10z = 1 and
log10(zx) - log10z ⋅ log10x = 0
has two solutions (x1, y1, z1) and (x2,y2, z2). Find (y1 + y2).

Properties of Logarithms
(a) logam + logan = loga mn

(b)

(c) loga(m)n = n logam ,

(d) where c > o and c ≠ 1

This is called Base Change Property


(e)
Whenever log is in power, property (e) is useful)
(f)
We may straight away observe two important deductions using the
base change property.

(1) (we may prove it by taking c = b)

(2) logc b × logb a = logc a (we may prove it by cross multiplying)


Generalized result is loga b × logb c × logc d = loga d
