This topic introduces logarithms and exponential equations. Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations, and so are used along with exponential functions when modelling

Introduction to Logarithms. -A logarithm is the inverse function for an exponent; therefore, we will review exponential functions first. Review of Exponential Functions. -An exponential function has the general form ( ) = , where 0 < -b is called the base and x is called the exponent. < 1, or > 1.
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.
We have the following de nition of logarithms: De nition For a > 0, a 6= 1 and b > 0 we have: log a 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. The number b (which we take the logarithm of) has to be ...
See the Supplementary sheet 2 ‘Logarithmic scales and log-log graphs’ on CD-ROM if you are interested in discovering logarithms for yourself. The symbol ⇔ means that if the left-hand side is true then so. is. the right-hand side, and if the right-hand side is true then so is the left-hand side.
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?
