The video tutorial explains how to graph the function y = log base 5 of x by converting it into its exponential form. It discusses the relationship between logarithms and exponents, and how to create a table of values to plot the graph. The tutorial also covers calculating specific x and y values for different powers and graphing the function while considering its domain, which is x > 0.

What does the equation y = log base 5 of x represent?

• y is the power to which 5 must be raised to get x

• x is the power to which y must be raised to get 5

• y is the base that must be raised to 5 to get x

• x is the base that must be raised to y to get 5

When choosing values for graphing, why is it beneficial to select x values that result in simple powers of 5?

• To ensure the graph is a straight line

• To make the graph look more complex

• To make the graphing process faster

• To avoid using a calculator

Why can't the logarithmic function y = log base 5 of x be defined for x ≤ 0?

• Because 5 raised to any power is always positive

• Because 5 raised to any power cannot be zero or negative

• Because 5 raised to any power is always negative

• Because 5 raised to any power is always zero
