Response
Problem 3: Find $\log_{7} 7^{11}$

Step 1: Recall the logarithm power rule

The power rule of logarithms states that $\log_{a} a^{b} = b$ for any positive real number $a
eq 1$ and real number $b$.

Step 2: Apply the power rule

In the expression $\log_{7} 7^{11}$, we have $a = 7$ and $b = 11$. Using the power rule, we get $\log_{7} 7^{11}=11$.

Step 1: Simplify the left - hand side (LHS)

First, we know that $36 = 4\times9=2^{2}\times3^{2}$. Using the power rule of logarithms $\log_{a}M^{n}=n\log_{a}M$, we can rewrite $\frac{1}{2}\log_{3}36$ as $\frac{1}{2}\log_{3}(2^{2}\times3^{2})$.
Then, using the product rule of logarithms $\log_{a}(MN)=\log_{a}M+\log_{a}N$, we have $\frac{1}{2}\log_{3}(2^{2}\times3^{2})=\frac{1}{2}(\log_{3}2^{2}+\log_{3}3^{2})$.
Applying the power rule again, $\frac{1}{2}(\log_{3}2^{2}+\log_{3}3^{2})=\frac{1}{2}(2\log_{3}2 + 2\log_{3}3)$.
Simplify the expression: $\frac{1}{2}(2\log_{3}2+2\log_{3}3)=\log_{3}2+\log_{3}3$.

Step 2: Simplify the right - hand side (RHS)

The right - hand side is $\log_{3}2+\log_{3}3$. Using the product rule of logarithms $\log_{a}M+\log_{a}N=\log_{a}(MN)$, we get $\log_{3}(2\times3)=\log_{3}6$.
Now, let's check the left - hand side again. $\frac{1}{2}\log_{3}36=\frac{1}{2}\log_{3}(6\times6)=\frac{1}{2}(\log_{3}6+\log_{3}6)=\log_{3}6$. And the right - hand side $\log_{3}2+\log_{3}3=\log_{3}(2\times3)=\log_{3}6$. So LHS = RHS.

Step 1: Rewrite each term using the power of 10

We know that $10 = 10^{1}$, $100 = 10^{2}$, $1000 = 10^{3}$, $10000 = 10^{4}$.
So, $\log_{10}10=\log_{10}10^{1}$, $\log_{10}100=\log_{10}10^{2}$, $\log_{10}1000=\log_{10}10^{3}$, $\log_{10}10000=\log_{10}10^{4}$.

Step 2: Apply the power rule of logarithms

Using the power rule $\log_{a}a^{b}=b$, we have:
$\log_{10}10^{1} = 1$, $\log_{10}10^{2}=2$, $\log_{10}10^{3}=3$, $\log_{10}10^{4}=4$.

Step 3: Sum the values

Now, we sum these values: $1 + 2+3 + 4=\frac{(1 + 4)\times4}{2}=10$ (using the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series $S_{n}=\frac{n(a_{1}+a_{n})}{2}$, where $n = 4$, $a_{1}=1$, $a_{n}=4$).

Answer:

$11$

Problem 4: Show that $\frac{1}{2}\log_{3} 36=\log_{3} 2+\log_{3} 3$
