Answer:

The answer is log(xy)

Explanation:

In logs, the opposite of addition is multiplication. Also when you're condensing, there needs to be only 1 log.

Hope this helps.

Answer:

log(xy)

Explanation:

Do notice that this only works when the bases of the logs are the same

written in exponent form, this rule is : a^x * a^y = a^(x+y)
