The first step for solving this expression is to use ㏒[tex]_{a} [/tex](x) + ㏒[tex]_{a} [/tex](y) = ㏒[tex]_{a} [/tex](x × y) to simplify the expression.
㏒[tex]_{2} [/tex](5x × 2x)
Now calculate the product in the parenthesis to get your final answer.
㏒[tex]_{2} [/tex](10x²)
This means that the correct answer to your question is ㏒[tex]_{2} [/tex](10x²).
