  1. Bell Ringer (in Math Journal) • How can you convert from exponential to logarithmic form? • What base is the log button on your calculator? • What are the laws of exponents?

  2. Logarithmic Equations Monday, October 20, 2014

  3. remember To convert from an exponential 25 = 32 → log2 32 = 5 And to convert from a logarithm to an exponential log2 32 = 5 → 25= 32

  4. Properties of Logs-- NOTES There are 7 laws of exponents and 3 properties of logarithms that you need to know. Remember, logarithms are the inverse of exponentials and some rules apply…

  5. Properties of Logs-- NOTES Like “when you multiply, you add” • logb m + logbn= logbmn

  6. Properties of Logs-- NOTES And “when you divide, you subtract” 2) logb m – logbn = logbm n

  7. Properties of Logs-- NOTES And “when you raise a power to a power, you multiply.” 3) p logb m = logbmp

  8. Natural log • ln means natural log. • The inverse of ln is e which is a number like π. • The same rules apply.

  9. Solving Log Equations • If possible, simplify, get log of the same bases equal and “drop the log.” • If not, simplify and convert to exponential form, then solve.
