Provided
ln y + ln t = ln (yt)
Explanation:
Note that if
ln a + ln b = ln (ab)
This follows from the corresponding property of exponents:
e^(p+q) = e^p * e^q
since
So given
p = ln a" " and" "q = ln b .
Then:
e^p = a" " and" "e^q = b
So:
ln a + ln b = p + q = ln(e^(p+q)) = ln(e^p * e^q) = ln(ab)
So provided
ln y + ln t = ln (yt)
