Provide an appropriate response.Explain why this sequence of steps is incorrect:log364?= log3 = log3(-8) + log3(-8)

What will be an ideal response?


The product rule for logarithms cannot be applied to the expression on the right side of the initial equation. That is,  applies only if x, y, and b are positive real numbers, where  Since  it is clearly a positive real number ? 1. However,  which is a negative number, and thus the rule cannot be applied.
