asks the question: “2 to what power is 8?” Based on that, you can answer the following questions:
Looking at your answers to exercises #3-6, what does the tell you about a number?
Multiple choice: which of the following is closest to ?
OK. When I say , that’s the same thing as saying . Why? Because asks a question: “What squared equals 36?” So the equation is providing an answer: “ six squared equals 36.”
You can look at logs in a similar way. If I say I’m asking a question: “2 to what power is 32?” And I’m answering: “two to the fifth power is 32.” So saying is the same thing as saying .
Based on this kind of reasoning, rewrite the following logarithm statements as exponent statements.
Now do the same thing backward: rewrite the following exponent statements as logarithm statements.
Finally...you don’t understand a function until you graph it...
