Simplify each term.

Tap for more steps...

Step 1.1

Simplify $4 \ln (x)$ by moving $4$ inside the logarithm.

$\ln (8) + \ln (x^{4}) + 6 \ln (x^{2} + 8)$

Step 1.2

Simplify $6 \ln (x^{2} + 8)$ by moving $6$ inside the logarithm.

$\ln (8) + \ln (x^{4}) + \ln ({(x^{2} + 8)}^{6})$

Step 2

Use the product property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) + \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (x y)$ .

$\ln (8 x^{4}) + \ln ({(x^{2} + 8)}^{6})$

Step 3

Use the product property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) + \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (x y)$ .

$\ln (8 x^{4} {(x^{2} + 8)}^{6})$
