However, this would be equivalent to adding the exponents in expressions such as x + x, which cannot be done. Thus, it is reasonable that there is no property for the logarithm of a sum. Do not confuse this with the valid property for a logarithm of a product, log b (MN) = log b M + log b N.

Real-World Connection The workers who direct planes at airports must wear ear protection.. about 6 decibels Logarithms are used to model sound. The intensity of a sound is a measure of the energy carried by the sound wave. The greater the intensity of a sound, the louder it seems. This apparent loudness L is measured in decibels. You can use the formula I L = 0 log I, where I is the 0 intensity of the sound in watts per square meter AW/m B. I 0 is the lowest-intensity sound that the average human ear can detect.
