Step 1 :Given the expression \(\log \frac{x z^{4}}{y}\)
Step 2 :Apply the properties of logarithms to expand the expression: \(\log \frac{x z^{4}}{y} = \log x + \log z^{4} - \log y\)
Step 3 :Apply the property of logarithms \(\log(a^n) = n \log a\) to \(\log z^{4}\) to get: \(\log x + 4\log z - \log y\)
Step 4 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{\log x + 4\log z - \log y}\)
