Question
Calculate the value
−36+12log2(5)
Alternative Form
≈−8.136863
Evaluate
0−(log10(2)12log10(100160))
Cancel out the common factor 20
0−(log10(2)12log10(58))
Use the logarithm base change rule
0−12log2(58)
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
−12log2(58)
Simplify
