3. LOGS EQUAL THE

4. The inverse of an exponential function is a logarithmic function. Logarithmic Function x = log a y read: “x equals log base a of y”

5. We can convert exponential equations to logarithmic equations and vice versa, using this:

6. Convert to exponential form 1) 2) 3)

7. Convert to logarithmic form 4) 5) 6)

8. Now that we can convert between the two forms we can simplify logarithmic expressions. Without a Calculator!

9. Simplify 1) log 2 32=x 2) log 3 27=x 3) log 4 2=x 4) log 3 1=x 2 x = 32 3 x = 27 4 x = 2 3 x = 1 x = 5 x = 3 x = 1/2 x = 0 “What is the exponent of that gives you 32?” “What is the exponent of 3 that gives you 27?”
