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? 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.
This topic introduces logarithms and exponential equations. Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations, and so are used along with exponential functions when modelling growth and decay. The logarithmic function is an important mathematical function and you will meet it again if you study calculus.
A graph of common logarithms is included to give students a visual perception of what logarithms look like and to help them understand some of their important characteristics and limits. The concepts discussed here are introduced in a clear, step-by-step manner.
Intro to Logarithms. Logarithms Algebra II. Julian Zhang. July 2021. 1 Introduction. In mathematics, exponentiation is a shorthand for repeated multiplication. For example, when we write 24, this means. 24 = 2 2 2 2. = 16. However, what if we wanted to perform this operation in reverse?
Logarithms make a lot of people anxious. A lot of this has to do with the way they're often taught in high school and secondary school: by memorizing all the proper steps, without imparting much deeper meaning. For example, maybe you were once taught to solve problems like this: log7 49 = ?
