Write as a single logarithm:

[tex]\[ \log 6 - \log 3 - \log 2 \][/tex]

Select one:

A. [tex]\(\log 0.5\)[/tex]

B. [tex]\(\log 1\)[/tex]

C. [tex]\(\log 7\)[/tex]

D. [tex]\(\log 11\)[/tex]



Answer :

To simplify the expression [tex]\(\log 6 - \log 3 - \log 2\)[/tex], let's use the properties of logarithms. Specifically, we will use the property that states:

[tex]\[ \log a - \log b = \log \left(\frac{a}{b}\right) \][/tex]

Following this property, let's work through the expression step by step:

1. Start with the expression:
[tex]\[ \log 6 - \log 3 - \log 2 \][/tex]

2. Apply the logarithm subtraction property to the first two terms:
[tex]\[ \log 6 - \log 3 = \log \left(\frac{6}{3}\right) \][/tex]
Simplifying inside the log gives:
[tex]\[ \log \left(\frac{6}{3}\right) = \log 2 \][/tex]

3. Now we have:
[tex]\[ \log 2 - \log 2 \][/tex]

4. Again apply the logarithm subtraction property:
[tex]\[ \log 2 - \log 2 = \log \left(\frac{2}{2}\right) \][/tex]
Simplifying inside the log gives:
[tex]\[ \log \left(\frac{2}{2}\right) = \log 1 \][/tex]

Since [tex]\(\log 1 = 0\)[/tex], we conclude:
[tex]\[ \log 6 - \log 3 - \log 2 = \log 1 \][/tex]

Thus, the correct answer is:

B. [tex]\(\log 1\)[/tex]
