Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.

$\log_a(\var{x1[1]})+ \log_a(\var{x1[0]})=\log_a($ Unnamed gap $)$

Advice

a)

We need to use the rule

$\log_a(x)+\log_a(y)=\log_a(xy)\text{.}$

Substituting in our values for $x$ and $y$ gives

$\begin{align} \log_a(\var{x1[1]})+\log_a(\var{x1[0]})&=\log_a(\var{x1[1]}\times \var{x1[0]})\\ &=\log_a(\var{x1[1]*x1[0]})\text{.} \end{align}$

b)

We need to use the rule

$\log_a(x)-\log_a(y)=\log_a\left(\frac{x}{y}\right)\text{.}$

Substituting in our values for $x$ and $y$ gives

$\begin{align} \log_a(\var{x1[4]*y1})-\log_a(\var{x1[4]})&=\log_a(\var{x1[4]*y1}\div \var{x1[4]})\\ &=\log_a(\var{y1})\text{.} \end{align}$
