2log_2(15)-log_2(5)+log_2(3)=log_2(15^2)-log_2(5)+log_2(3)\\=\log_2{(225*3)/(5)}=\log_2{135}

Answer:

Option C.
log_(2)135

Explanation:

The given expression is
2log_(2)15-log_(2)5+log_(2)3

We have to simplify this expression


2log_(2)15-log_(2)5+log_(2)3

=
log_(2)(15^(2))-log_(2)5+log_(2)3 [Since
log(a^(n))=n(loga)]

=
log_(2)225-log_(2)5+log_(2)3

=
log_(2)(225)/(5)+log_(2)3 [Since
log(a)/(b)=loga-logb]

=
log_(2)(225* 3)/(5) [Since
log(a* b)=loga+logb]

=
log_(2)135

Therefore, Option C.
log_(2)135 is the answer.
