Power Property of Logarithms
The Power Property of Logarithms states that the logarithm of a number raised to a power is equal to the product of the power and the logarithm of the number. If , , , and is any real number, then . This is related to the Power Property for Exponents, , where raising a power to a power requires multiplying the exponents. Similarly, applying the Power Property of Logarithms allows the exponent to be brought in front of the logarithm as a multiplier.
