Math Problem Statement

Log0/0001-2log100+log1

Solution

To solve the expression log0/00012log100+log1\log 0 / 0001 - 2\log 100 + \log 1, let's break it down step by step.

1. Evaluate each logarithm:

  • log0/0001\log 0 / 0001:

    • First, note that log(0/0001)\log(0 / 0001) is log(1)\log(1), since 0/00010 / 0001 simplifies to 11.
    • log(1)=0\log(1) = 0 because any base logarithm of 1 is always 0.
  • 2log1002 \log 100:

    • log100\log 100 (assuming base 10) equals 2, since 102=10010^2 = 100.
    • So, 2log100=2×2=42 \log 100 = 2 \times 2 = 4.
  • log1\log 1:

    • log1=0\log 1 = 0 because, as mentioned earlier, the logarithm of 1 in any base is 0.

2. Plug in the evaluated logarithms:

log0/00012log100+log1=04+0\log 0 / 0001 - 2\log 100 + \log 1 = 0 - 4 + 0

3. Simplify the expression:

04+0=40 - 4 + 0 = -4

So, the final answer is 4-4.
