This topic introduces logarithms and exponential equations. Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations, and so are used along with exponential functions when modelling
We have the following de nition of logarithms: 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. 6).
A Logarithm is the inverse function for an Exponent -We remember that inverse functions do the exact opposite of one another. -An example can be seen in the table above; the exponential function sends −2 to 1 4. The logarithm would send 1 4 back to −2. -Inverse functions undo one another and this concept is going to be crucial to calculating
Express the argument of the logarithm in exponent form with the same base.
Introduction to Logarithms used whole number bases for the logarithms, including base 10, which is called the common logarithm. Another logarithm, the natural logarithm, uses the number e as the base. The number e is a constant, and, like another famous constant π, e is an irrational number.
