Front

Definition: Exponential Function

Back

A function of the form f(x) = a * b^x, where a is a constant, b > 0, and b ≠ 1.

Front

Definition: Logarithm

Back

The inverse operation to exponentiation, log_b(a) is the exponent to which b must be raised to yield a.

Change of Base Formula

Back

log_b(a) = log_k(a) / log_k(b) for any positive k.

Definition: Properties of Logarithms

Back

1. log_b(mn) = log_b(m) + log_b(n) 2. log_b(m/n) = log_b(m) - log_b(n) 3. log_b(m^p) = p * log_b(m)
