Understanding Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

The video tutorial covers the basics of exponential and logarithmic functions, explaining their properties and how they are inverses of each other. It provides instructions on using calculators, specifically the TI-84, to perform logarithmic calculations. The tutorial also demonstrates how to convert between logarithmic and exponential forms and includes practice problems for students to reinforce their understanding.

What is the range of a typical exponential function?

• All integers

• All negative numbers

• All positive numbers

• All real numbers

How can you calculate log base 3 of 3.3 using a calculator?

• log(3) / log(3.3)

• log(3.3) * log(3)

• log(3.3) + log(3)

• log(3.3) / log(3)
