Remember that a log x = log x^a
So put all the numbers inside the logs:
log_3 (x²) + log_3 (y^5) + log_3( z^(-4) )
Now the next rule is:
log a + log b = log(ab)
log_3( x² y^5 z^(-4) )
You could also write this as:
log_3( x² y^5 / z^4 )

Let log be understood as log base 3 in the following:-
2 log x + 5 log y - 4 log z
log x² + log y^5 - log z^4
log (x² y^5 / z^4)
You don`t specify an actual question so this is as far as it goes ?

LAWS:
n log a = log (a^n)
log a +log b = log ab
log a - log b = log (a/b)
so...
= log (x^3) + log (y^5) - log (z^4)
=log (x^3 * x^5) - log (z^4)
=log [(x^3 * x^5)/(z^4)]
the subs were all 3 so i didnt write'm.
good luck!!

I assume you have to simply the expression
= log base 3 (x^2y^5/z^4)

2log v3 (x) + 5 log v3 (y) - 4log v3 (z)
= log v3 [(x^2)(y^5)/(z^5)]

I hated Logarithms in Highschool I wish you the best of luck I took a stab at it but i forget most of the rules. I think you will end up with 3 log sub....

so using law of logs:
x^3(y^5)/z^4.
