example evaluate following logarithmslog4 16solutionnow the reality is that directly evaluating logarithms can be a very complicated process
logarithm formin this definition y logb x is called the logarithm formexponential formin this definition b y x is called the exponential
logarithm functionsin this section now we have to move into logarithm functions it can be a tricky function to graph right away there is some
exponential functionas a last topic in this section we have to discuss a special exponential function actually this is so special that for
properties of f x b x1 the graph of f x will always have the point 01 or put another way f0 1 in spite of of the value of b2 for every
definition of an exponential functionif b is any number like that b 0 and b ne 1 then an exponential function is function in the
in this section we will look at exponential amp logarithm functions both of these functions are extremely important and have to be understood
