Final answer:

To write the expression
2log(x) - log(y) - 2log(z) as a single logarithm, we can combine the terms using logarithmic properties. The expression can be simplified to
log((x^2)/(y*z^2)).

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the expression
2log(x) - log(y) - 2log(z) as a single logarithm, we can use the properties of logarithms to combine the terms.

First, applying the property of division, log(x/y) can be written as
log(x) - log(y).

Next, applying the property of multiplication, log(a*b) can be written as log(a) + log(b).

Finally, combining all the terms, we have:


2log(x) - log(y) - 2log(z)


= log(x^2) - log(y) - log(z^2)


= log((x^2)/(y*z^2))
