I do not mean to sound rude but - if this is homework then your teacher will surely go through the questions you cannot do

To be completely blunt nobody is going to waste their time doing that. However if you have a problem with 1 or 2 specific questions we can help.

Can you show what you have tried

How you have applied the basic rules

By basic I mean

log(a)+log(b)=log(ab)\log(a) + \log(b) = \log(ab)

and

log(a)log(b)=log(ab)\log(a) - \log(b) = \log(\frac{a}{b})

and

alog(b)=log(ba)a\log(b) = \log(b^a)

would i apply the first rule?

log(4^3) - log5 + log15

log64 - log5 + log15

log(64/5) + log 15

log64 - log5 + log15

log(64/5) + log 15

log(64/5 x 15) = log192


thank you, could you please help me with 6?

That's hard to write on here. You just square the whole thing inside the bracket giving you log(a^2 b^6 / c^4) then split it up like before.
