7.3 L OGARITHMIC F UNCTIONS Write equivalent forms for exponential and logarithmic functions. Write, evaluate, and graph logarithmic functions. Objectives logarithm common logarithm logarithmic function Vocabulary Why are we Learning this? A logarithmic scale is used to measure the acidity, or pH, of water

How many times would you have to double $1 before you had $8? W HAT I S A L OG ? How many times would you have to double $1 before you had $512? 2 x = 512 The inverse operation that undoes raising a base to an exponent is called finding the logarithm. A logarithm is the exponent to which a specified base is raised to obtain a given value. log b a= x: “the log base b of a is x.” Notice that the log is the exponent. Reading Math A log with base 10 is called a common logarithm. If no base is written for a log, the base is assumed to be 10. For ex, log 5 = log 10 5.

Write each exponential equation in logarithmic form. Example 1: Converting from Exponential to Logarithmic Form The base of the exponent becomes the base of the logarithm. The exponent is the logarithm. An exponent (or log) can be negative. The log (and the exponent) can be a variable. Exponential Equation Logarithmic Form 3 5 = = = 10,000 6 –1 = a b = c log = log 25 5 =

Example 2: Converting from Logarithmic to Exponential Form Write each logarithmic form in exponential equation. The base of the logarithm becomes the base of the power. The logarithm is the exponent. A logarithm can be a negative number. Any nonzero base to the zero power is 1. Logarithmic Form Exponential Equation log 9 9 = 1 log = 9 log 8 2 = log 4 = –2 log b 1 = = = = 2

A logarithm is an exponent, so the rules for exponents also apply to logs. Log 10 10= Log 17 1= Evaluate by converting to an exponential statement:

Evaluate by using mental math. Example 3A: Evaluating Logarithms by Using Mental Math The log is the exponent. Think: What power of 10 is 0.01? log ? = = 0.01 log 0.01 = –2 Go back to the log expression: log log 5 1 5

Because logarithms are the inverses of exponents, the inverse of an exponential function, such as y = 2 x, is a logarithmic function, such as y = log 2 x. You may notice that the domain and range of each function are switched. Domain Range

Use the x-values {–2, –1, 0, 1, 2}. Graph the function and its inverse. Describe the domain and range of the inverse function. Example 4A: Graphing Logarithmic Functions f(x) = 1.25 x Graph f(x) = 1.25 x by using a table of values. 1 f (x) = 1.25 x 210–1–2 x To graph the inverse, f –1 (x) = log 1.25 x, by using a table of values. 210–1–2 f – 1 (x) = log 1.25 x x
