Guided Notes (Logs)

This document contains guided notes on logarithmic functions for an integrated math course. It defines logarithms as exponents, provides examples of converting between exponential and logarithmic forms using common bases like 10 and e, and explores properties of logarithmic functions. It also gives examples of evaluating logarithms with mental math and graphing logarithmic functions and their inverses.

GUIDED NOTES: LOGARITHMIC FUNCTIONS


Logarithm: is the exponent to which a specified base is raised to obtain a given value

Exponential Function
b =a
x

log b a = x

Logarithmic Function

Converting from exponential to logarithmic form

3 Use x = -2, -1, 1, 2, and 3 to graph f ( x) = . Then graph its inverse. Describe 4

the domain and range of the inverse function.

Use x = -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2 to graph f ( x ) = (1.25 ) x . Then graph its inverse. Describe the domain and range of the inverse function.
