Introduction to Logarithms. In its simplest form, a logarithm answers the question: How many of one number multiply together to make another number? Example: How many 2 s multiply together to make 8? Answer: 2 × 2 × 2 = 8, so we had to multiply 3 of the 2 s to get 8. So the logarithm is 3. How to Write it. We write it like this: log2(8) = 3.
In this article, we are going to learn the definition of logarithms, two types of logarithms such as common logarithm and natural logarithm, and different properties of logarithms with many solved examples.
4 Αυγ 2024 · Logarithm is a mathematical function that represents the exponent to which a fixed number, known as the base, must be raised to produce a given number. In other words, it is the inverse operation of exponentiation.
The logarithm is denoted "log b x" (pronounced as "the logarithm of x to base b", "the base-b logarithm of x", or most commonly "the log, base b, of x "). An equivalent and more succinct definition is that the function log b is the inverse function to the function x ↦ b x {\displaystyle x\mapsto b^{x}} .
16 Νοε 2022 · In this section we will introduce logarithm functions. We give the basic properties and graphs of logarithm functions. In addition, we discuss how to evaluate some basic logarithms including the use of the change of base formula. We will also discuss the common logarithm, log(x), and the natural logarithm, ln(x).
Logarithm definition. When b is raised to the power of y is equal x: b y = x. Then the base b logarithm of x is equal to y: log b (x) = y. For example when: 2 4 = 16. Then. log 2 (16) = 4. Logarithm as inverse function of exponential function. The logarithmic function, y = log b (x) is the inverse function of the exponential function, x = by.
Logarithm is another way of writing exponent. The problems that cannot be solved using only exponents can be solved using logs. Learn more about logarithms and rules to work on them in detail.
