Intro to Logs Day

Rewrite 3⁴ = 81 in logarithmic form.

• log₃4 = 81
• log₈₁3 = 4
• log₃81 = 4
• log₄81 = 3

Write in logarithmic form.
2^-4 = ¹/₁₆

• log₂(¹/₁₆) = -4
• log_-4(¹/₁₆) = 2
• log _-4 2 = ¹/₁₆
• log₂(-4) = ¹/₁₆

Write in exponential form.
log₂32 = 5

• 2^-5 = 32
• 2³² = 5
• 2⁵ = 32
• 32⁵ = 2

Write in exponential form.
log₂(¹/₈) = -3

• 2^-3 = ¹/₈
• 2^1/8 = -3
• -3² = ¹/₈
• -3^1/8 = 2
