9th Math New Book 2025 Exercise 2.4 (PCTB)
1. Without using a calculator, evaluate the following: (i) \(\log_2 18 – \log_2 9\) Using the logarithmic property: \(\log_b x – \log_b y = \log_b \frac{x}{y}\): \[\log_2 18 – \log_2 9 = \log_2 \frac{18}{9} = \log_2 2 = 1\] Answer: \(1\) (ii) \(\log_2 64 + \log_2 2\) Using the logarithmic property: \(\log_b x + \log_b…
