  1. Chapter 10 Exploring Exponential and Logarithmic Functions By Kathryn Valle

  2. 10-1 Real Exponents and Exponential Functions • An exponential function is any equation in the form y = a·bx where a ≠ 0, b > 0, and b ≠ 1. b is referred to as the base. • Property of Equality for Exponential Functions: If in the equation y = a·bx, b is a positive number other than 1, then bx1 = bx2 if and only if x1 = x2.

  3. 10-1 Real Exponents and Exponential Functions • Product of Powers Property: To simplify two like terms each with exponents and multiplied together, add the exponents. • Example: 34 · 35 = 39 5√2 · 5√7 = 5√2 + √7 • Power of a Power Property: To simplify a term with an exponent and raised to another power, multiply the exponents. • Example: (43)2 = 46 (8√5)4 = 84·√5

  4. 10-1 Examples • Solve: 128 = 24n – 1 53n + 2> 625 27 = 24n –1 53n + 2> 54 7 = 4n – 1 3n + 2 > 4 8 = 4n 3n > 2 n = 2 n > ²/³

  5. 10-1 Practice • Simplify each expression: • (23)6 c. p5 + p3 • 7√4 + 7√3 d. (k√3)√3 • Solve each equation or inequality. • 121 = 111 + n c. 343 = 74n – 1 • 33k = 729 d. 5n2 = 625 Answers: 1)a) 218 b) 7√4 + √3 c) p8 d) k3 2)a) n = 1 b) n = 2 c) n = 1 d) n = ±2

  6. 10-2 Logarithms and Logarithmic Functions • A logarithm is an equation in the from logbn = p where b ≠ 1, b > 0, n > 0, and bp = n. • Exponential Equation Logarithmic Equation n = bp p = logbn exponent or logarithm base number • Example: x = 63 can be re-written as 3 = log6 x ³/2 = log2 x can be re-written as x = 23/2

  7. 10-2 Logarithms and Logarithmic Functions • A logarithmic function has the from y = logb, where b > 0 and b ≠ 1. • The exponential function y = bx and the logarithmic function y = logb are inverses of each other. This means that their composites are the identity function, or they form an equation with the form y = logb bx is equal to x. • Example: log5 53 = 3 2log2 (x – 1) = x – 1

  8. 10-2 Logarithms and Logarithmic Functions • Property of Equality for Logarithmic Functions:Given that b > 0 and b ≠ 1, then logb x1 = logb x2 if and only if x1 = x2. • Example: log8 (k2 + 6) = log8 5k k2 + 6 = 5k k2 – 5k + 6 = 0 (k – 6)(k + 1) = 0 k = 6 or k = -1

  9. 10-2 Practice • Evaluate each expression. • log3½7c. log5 625 • log7 49 d. log4 64 • Solve each equation. • log3 x = 2 d. log12 (2p2) – log12(10p – 8) • log5 (t + 4) = log5 9t e. log2 (log4 16) = x • logk 81 = 4 f. log9 (4r2) – log9(36) Answers: 1)a) -3 b) 2 c) 4 d) 3 2)a) 9 b) ½ c) 3 d) 1, 5 e) 1 f) -3, 3

  10. 10-3 Properties of Logarithms • Product Property of Logarithms: logb mn = logb m + logb n as long as m, n, and b are positive and b ≠ 1. • Example: Given that log2 5 ≈ 2.322, find log2 80: log2 80 = log2 (24· 5) = log224 + log2 5 ≈ 4 + 2.322 ≈ 6.322 • Quotient Property of Logarithms: As long as m, n, and b are positive numbers and b ≠ 1, then logb m/n = logb m – logb n • Example: Given that log3 6 ≈ 1.6309, find log36/81: log36/81 = log36/34= log3 6 – log3 34 ≈ 1.6309 – 4 ≈ -2.3691

  11. 10-3 Properties of Logarithms • Power Property of Logarithms: For any real number p and positive numbers m and b, where b ≠ 1, logb mp = p·logb m • Example: Solve ½ log4 16– 2·log4 8 = log4 x ½ log4 16– 2·log4 8 = log4 x log4 161/2 – log4 82 = log4 x log4 4 – log4 64 = log4 x log44/64 = log4 x x = 4/64 x = 1/16

  12. 10-3 Practice • Given log4 5 ≈ 1.161 and log4 3 ≈ 0.792, evaluate the following: • log4 15 b. log4 192 • log4 5/3 d. log4144/25 • Solve each equation. • 2 log3 x = ¼ log2 256 • 3 log6 2– ½ log6 25 = log6 x • ½ log4 144– log4 x = log4 4 • 1/3 log5 27 + 2 log5 x = 4 log5 3 Answers: 1)a) 1.953 b) 3.792 c) 0.369 d) 1.544 2)a) x = ± 2 b) x = 8/5 c) x = 36 d) x = 3√3

  13. 10-4 Common Logarithms • Logarithms in base 10 are called common logarithms. They are usually written without the subscript 10. • Example: log10 x = log x • The decimal part of a log is the mantissa and the integer part of the log is called the characteristic. • Example: log (3.4 x 103) = log 3.4 + log 103 = 0.5315 + 3 mantissa characteristic

  14. 10-4 Common Logarithms • In a log we are given a number and asked to find the logarithm, for example log 4.3. When we are given the logarithm and asked to find the log, we are finding the antilogarithm. • Example: log x = 2.2643 x = 10 2.2643 x = 183.78 • Example: log x = 0.7924 x = 10 0.7924 x = 6.2

  15. 10-4 Practice • If log 3600 = 3.5563, find each number. • mantissa of log 3600 d. log 3.6 • characteristic of log 3600 e. 10 3.5563 • antilog 3.5563 f. mantissa of log 0.036 • Find the antilogarithm of each. • 2.498 c. -1.793 • 0.164 d. 0.704 – 2 Answers: 1)a) 0.5563 b) 3 c) 3600 d) 0.5563 e) 3600 f) 0.5563 2)a) 314.775 b) 1.459 c) 0.016 d) 0.051

  16. 10-5 Natural Logarithms • e is the base for the natural logarithms, which are abbreviated ln. Natural logarithms carry the same properties as logarithms. • e is an irrational number with an approximate value of 2.718. Also, ln e = 1.

  17. 10-5 Practice • Find each value rounded to four decimal places. • ln 6.94 e. antiln -3.24 • ln 0.632 f. antiln 0.493 • ln 34.025 g. antiln -4.971 • ln 0.017 h. antiln 0.835 Answers: 1)a) 1.9373 b) -0.4589 c) 3.5271 d) -4.0745 e) 0.0392 f) 1.6372 g) 0.0126 h) 2.3048

  18. 10-6 Solving Exponential Equations • Exponential equations are equations where the variable appears as an exponent. These equations are solved using the property of equality for logarithmic functions. • Example: 5x = 18 log 5x = log 18 x · log 5 = log 18 x = log 18 log 5 x = 1.796

  19. 10-6 Solving Exponential Equations • When working in bases other than base 10, you must use the Change of Base Formula which says loga n = logb n logb a For this formula a, b, and n are positive numbers where a ≠ 1 and b ≠ 1. • Example: log7 196 log 196change of base formula log 7 a = 7, n = 196, b = 10 ≈ 2.7124

  20. 10-6 Practice • Find the value of the logarithm to 3 decimal places. • log7 19 c. log3 91 • log12 34 d. log5 48 • Use logarithms to solve each equation.

  21. 10-7 Growth and Decay • The general formula for growth and decay is y = nekt, where y is the final amount, n is the initial amount, k is a constant, and t is the time. • To solve problems using this formula, you will apply the properties of logarithms.

  22. 10-7 Practice • Population Growth: The town of Bloomington-Normal, Illinois, grew from a population of 129,180 in 1990, to a population of 150,433 in 2000. • Use this information to write a growth equation for Bloomington-Normal, where t is the number of years after 1990. • Use your equation to predict the population of Bloomington-Normal in 2015. • Use your equation to find the amount year when the population of Bloomington-Normal reaches 223,525.

  23. 10-7 Practice Solution • Use this information to write a growth equation for Bloomington-Normal, where t is the number of years after 1990. y = nekt 150,433 = (129,180)·ek(10) 1.16452 = e10·k ln 1.16452 = ln e10·k 0.152311 = 10·k k = 0.015231 equation: y = 129,180·e0.015231·t

  24. 10-7 Practice Solution • Use your equation to predict the population of Bloomington-Normal in 2015. y = 129,180·e0.015231·t y = 129,180·e(0.015231)(25) y = 129,180·e0.380775 y = 189,044

  25. 10-7 Practice Solution • Use your equation to find the amount year when the population of Bloomington-Normal reaches 223,525. y = 129,180·e0.015231·t 223,525 = 129,180·e0.015231·t 1.73034 = e0.015231·t ln 1.73034 = ln e0.015231·t 0.548318 = 0.015231·t t = 36 years 1990 + 36 = 2026
