Complete parts a-d below. (a) Simplify log8(w^13) + log8(w^5). (b) Solve log8(w^13) + log8(w^5) = 1. (c) Compare the process of simplifying an expression with solving an equation. (d) Explain how simplifying an expression can help when you are solving an equation. (a) log8(w^13) + log8(w^5) = log8(w^18) (b) w ≈ 1.1225 (Type an integer or decimal rounded to four decimal places as needed.) (c) Which of the following is the correct comparison of simplifying an expression and solving an equation? A. Simplifying an expression gives a value that satisfies a given formula, while solving an equation is a process by which complicated logarithmic expressions are reduced. B. Simplifying an expression is a process by which complicated logarithmic expressions are reduced, while solving an equation gives a value that satisfies a given formula. C. Solving an equation is a way to find a value that simplifies an expression to a single logarithm. D. There is no difference. (d) Which of the following explains how simplifying an expression can help when you are solving an equation? A. Simplifying an expression given in an equation will make it easier to put the equation in logarithmic form and solve algebraically. B. Simplifying the expression in a given equation makes it easier to use the properties of logarithms. C. Simplifying an expression does not help when solving an equation. D. Simplifying an expression will help solve an equation because when the expression is fully simplified it can be changed from logarithmic form to exponential form, and then solved algebraically.
