4. Exponential + Logarithmic Functions Logarithmic and exponential functions are among the most common functions encountered in applications. Population curves consist of logarithmic functions, particularly the natural logarithm. Growth/Decay, business applications use exponential functions

5. Thm- For any constant b > 0, Thm- In particular,

6. Derivative of Natural Log To determine the derivative of the natural logarithm, let’s take a look at the graph of lnx and its slopes

7. Derivative of ln x cont’d Thm- For x > 0,
