How many statements are always true?
lo g 2 ( x 4 5 ) = 4 5 lo g 2 ( x )
lo g 2 x y = lo g 2 x + lo g 2 y
lo g 3 x = lo g x 3 1
lo g 3 8 = lo g 1 5 6 3 lo g 1 5 6 8
x is a real number not equal to 0 .

Domain of LHS and RHS in A is x > 0 so isnt A true?

Statement 1 is also true, check it again ...

@Harsh Shrivastava ,I think A is true! actually x can not be negative neither in LHS nor in RHS as it is not in domain. In case you had written power any number even instead of 45(which is odd), you were right at your claim.

There is no need to mention me in every single comment that you made. Once is enough.

@Calvin Lin – I simply copy/pasted my comments.
Statement 1 is true. Harsh, that only apply when the exponent is even. If you have an odd exponent (as here), it will be negative in both sides.

Let
A : lo g 2 ( x 4 5 ) = 4 5 lo g 2 ( x )
B : lo g 2 x y = lo g 2 x + lo g 2 y
C : lo g 3 x = lo g x 3 1
D : lo g 3 8 = lo g 1 5 6 3 lo g 1 5 6 8
A is true.
B is true iff x > 0 .Thus correct statement should be lo g 2 x y = lo g 2 ∣ x ∣ + lo g 2 ∣ y ∣ .
C is true only if x = 1 .
D is true. See here .
