Answer:

If (a and b )≤ 0 then [tex]log(ab)=log(a)+log(b)[/tex] is disproved

Step-by-step explanation:

If a and b are positive real numbers then:

[tex]log(ab)=log(a)+log(b)[/tex]

But if a and b are negative then this axiom is not true as log is not defined

[tex]log_{c}(x)[/tex]= undefined   [tex]for \quad x\leq 0[/tex]

So if (a and b )≤ 0 then [tex]log_{c}(a)[/tex] and  [tex]log_{c}(b)[/tex] are undefined but [tex]log_{c}(-a*-b)[/tex] is defined.
