This topic introduces logarithms and exponential equations. Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations, and so are used along with exponential functions when modelling
After reading this text and / or viewing the video tutorial on this topic you should be able to: explain what is meant by a logarithm. state and use the laws of logarithms. solve simple equations requiring the use of logarithms.
Definition of the Logarithmic Function. log x y ay x where “a” is a positive number and a 1. a. In words, log. a. x is the exponent to which the base “a” must be raised to give “x”.
-Logarithms, much like exponents are often used to model types of growth. Using Logarithms in Equations -While logarithmic functions are extremely valuable in many areas of applied mathematics and science, they are also a very powerful problem-solving tool. -We are going to cover how to use logarithms in equations.
The definition of a logarithm leads to two rules that are useful for solving equations. If a > 0 and a „ 1 , then, log bx = x. b. In exponential form we have. x x b = b . b log b x. = x. In logarithmic form we have log x =.
What does it mean? First of all the assumptions (restrictions) are important. The number a, called the base of the logarithm, has to be greater than 0 and cannot be equal to 1. The number b (which we take the logarithm of) has to be greater than 0. So the expressions like log1 3, log 2 5 numbers (similarly to expressions like. p or log4( 6).
