Plz help100 points. also, plz be the correct answer

For logarithmic equations,  

log

b ( x ) = y

logb(x)=y

is equivalent to  b y = x

by=x

such that  x > 0

x>0 ,  b > 0

b>0 , and  b ≠ 1

b≠1

.In this case,  b = 5

b=5 ,  x = 25

x=25 , and  y   2

y=2 .

b = 5

b=5

x =

25

x=25

y = 2

y=2

Substitute the values of  b

b ,  x

x , and  y

y

into the equation  

b y =

x

by=x

.

5 squared

=

25

5squared=25

true statements:

a) x + y = y + x   ⇒ commutative property of addition

b) (x * y) * z = x * (y * z) ⇒ associative property of multiplication

d) (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) ⇒ associative property of addition

false statements:

c) x - y = y - x   should be: x - y = - y + x

e) (x - y) - z = x - (y - z) should be: (x - y) - z = x - (y + z)
