$\log (5) (x - 3)$

Step 1

Apply the distributive property.

$\log (5) x + \log (5) \cdot - 3$

Step 2

Move $- 3$ to the left of $\log (5)$ .

$\log (5) x - 3 \cdot \log (5)$

Step 3

Reorder factors in $\log (5) x - 3 \log (5)$ .

$x \log (5) - 3 \log (5)$

$[\begin{array}{c} x^{2} & \frac{1}{2} \\ \sqrt{π} & \int x d x \end{array}]$
