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. We have the following de nition of logarithms: De nition. a > 0, a 6= 1 and b > 0 we have: loga b = c , ac = b. What does it mean?

This topic introduces logarithms and exponential equations. Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations, and so are used along with exponential functions when modelling
The laws of logarithms. The three main laws are stated here: . First Law. log A + log B = log AB. . This law tells us how to add two logarithms together. Adding log A and log B results in the logarithm of the product of A and B, that is log AB. For example, we can write. log10 5 + log10 4 = log10(5 × 4) = log10 20.
Logarithm formulas. = loga x () ay = x (a; x > 0; a 6= 1) loga 1 = 0. loga a = 1. loga(mn) = loga m + loga n. m. loga = loga m. n.
