Answer

So, the expression 2log3(x+3)log3(x20)log3(x9) can be written as a single logarithm as log3((x+3)2(x20)(x9))

Steps

Step 1 :Rewrite the expression using the property of logarithms a*log_b(c) = log_b(c^a): log3((x+3)2)log3(x20)log3(x9)

Step 2 :Simplify the expression using the property of logarithms log_b(c) - log_b(d) = log_b(c/d): log3((x+3)2(x20)(x9))

Step 3 :So, the expression 2log3(x+3)log3(x20)log3(x9) can be written as a single logarithm as log3((x+3)2(x20)(x9))
