1. **Problem:** Expand each logarithm using logarithm properties.
2. **Step 1:** $\log_6 \left(\frac{u}{v}\right)$
- Use the quotient rule: $\log_b \left(\frac{M}{N}\right) = \log_b M - \log_b N$
- So, $\log_6 \left(\frac{u}{v}\right) = \log_6 u - \log_6 v$
3. **Step 2:** $\log_5 \sqrt[3]{a}$
- Use the power rule: $\log_b (M^p) = p \log_b M$
- $\sqrt[3]{a} = a^{\frac{1}{3}}$
- So, $\log_5 \sqrt[3]{a} = \frac{1}{3} \log_5 a$
4. **Step 3:** $\log_7 5^4$
- Use the power rule
- $\log_7 5^4 = 4 \log_7 5$
5. **Step 4:** $\log_4 4^6$
- Use the power rule
- $\log_4 4^6 = 6 \log_4 4$
- Since $\log_4 4 = 1$, this simplifies to $6$
6. **Step 5:** $\log (a \cdot b)$
- Use the product rule: $\log_b (MN) = \log_b M + \log_b N$
- So, $\log (a \cdot b) = \log a + \log b$
7. **Step 6:** $\log_5 \left(\frac{6}{7}\right)$
- Use the quotient rule
- $\log_5 \left(\frac{6}{7}\right) = \log_5 6 - \log_5 7$
---
8. **Problem:** Condense each expression to a single logarithm.
9. **Step 7:** $6 \log_5 10$
- Use power rule in reverse: $a \log_b M = \log_b M^a$
- So, $6 \log_5 10 = \log_5 10^6$
10. **Step 8:** $\frac{\log x}{3}$
- Rewrite as $\frac{1}{3} \log x$
- Use power rule in reverse
- $\frac{\log x}{3} = \log x^{\frac{1}{3}} = \log \sqrt[3]{x}$
11. **Step 9:** $\log_7 u - \log_7 v$
- Use quotient rule in reverse
- $\log_7 u - \log_7 v = \log_7 \left(\frac{u}{v}\right)$
12. **Step 10:** $\log_6 x - \log_6 y$
- Use quotient rule in reverse
- $\log_6 x - \log_6 y = \log_6 \left(\frac{x}{y}\right)$
13. **Step 11:** $\log_4 2 + \log_4 7$
- Use product rule in reverse
- $\log_4 2 + \log_4 7 = \log_4 (2 \cdot 7) = \log_4 14$
14. **Step 12:** $\log_3 a + \log_3 b$
- Use product rule in reverse
- $\log_3 a + \log_3 b = \log_3 (ab)$
**Final answers:**
- Expanded:
1) $\log_6 u - \log_6 v$
2) $\frac{1}{3} \log_5 a$
3) $4 \log_7 5$
4) $6$
5) $\log a + \log b$
6) $\log_5 6 - \log_5 7$
- Condensed:
19) $\log_5 10^6$
20) $\log \sqrt[3]{x}$
21) $\log_7 \left(\frac{u}{v}\right)$
22) $\log_6 \left(\frac{x}{y}\right)$
23) $\log_4 14$
24) $\log_3 (ab)$
