A logarithmic function with base “a”: is denoted by: if and only if:
A logarithm is an exponent. A logarithm is an exponent. A logarithm is an exponent. A logarithm is an exponent. A logarithm is an exponent. A logarithm is an exponent. exponent. is logarithm
The two equationsare equivalent… Use one to solve the other…and use the other to solve the one…depending upon which one you need to solve. is the same as: is the same as: is the same as: is the same as: is the same as: is the same as:
Properties of Common Logarithms logarithmic exponential All this stuff works with e and ln, too.
Properties of Natural Logarithms logarithmic exponential
For all: f(x) = logax Domain: Range: Intercept: VA: Increasing: Decreasing
Shifting f(x) = log2x f(x) = log2x + 3 What is new asymptote??? f(x) = log2x - 4 What is new asymptote???
Shifting f(x) = log2x f(x) = log2(x + 3) What is new asymptote??? f(x) = log2 (x - 4) What is new asymptote???
Your favorite…or is it mine??? Domain On your calculators, do: What can you deduce from this??? You can’t take the log of a negative number, or 0. Common or Natural NCD
