Aug 19­6:20 AM
Properties of Logarithms
For any positive numbers, M, N, and b, b ≠ 0
logb MN = logb M + logb N
Product Property
logb M/N = logb M ­ logb N
Quotient Property
logb Mx = xlogb M Power Property
Logs can only be combined if they have the same bases.

Example: Noise Reduction
L = 10 log I / I0 L is loudness
I is the intensity of the sound in watts/meter2 I0 is the lowest­Intensity sound that can be heard by an average human.
An airport shipping company wants to decrease the intensity of the sound of the airplanes it uses to 25% of the current level. By how many decibels would the loudness of the sound be decreased?
Let I1 = Present Intensity
Let I2 = Reduced Intensity
Let L1 = Present Loudness
Let L2 = Reduced Loundess
I2 = .25I1
L1 = 10 log I1 / I0 L2 = 10 log I2 / I0 L1 ­ L2 = Nov 20­7:28 AM
