No, an function only contains a certain amount of vertices; leaving a logarithmic function to NOT be the inverse of an exponential function.

An exponential function is of the form y = a^x, where a is a constant. The inverse of this is x = a^y --> y = ln(x)/ln(a), where ln() means the natural log.

Exponential and logarithmic functions are different in so far as each is interchangeable with the other depending on how the numbers in a problem are expressed. It is simple to translate exponential equations into logarithmic functions with the aid of certain principles.
The logarithm function. If y = bx, then x = by is the inverse --> y = logb(x). If b = 10, then the function is often stated with the '10' implied: just log(x). For natural logarithms (y = ex), the function y = ln(x) [which indicates loge(x)] is the inverse.
No. The inverse of an exponential function is a logarithmic function.
Yes.
Logarithmic Function
The relationship between a logarithmic function and its graph is that the graph of a logarithmic function is the inverse of an exponential function. This means that the logarithmic function "undoes" the exponential function, and the graph of the logarithmic function reflects this inverse relationship.
Yes, y = loga(x) means the same as x=ay.
The exponential function, in the case of the natural exponential is f(x) = ex, where e is approximately 2.71828. The logarithmic function is the inverse of the exponential function. If we're talking about the natural logarithm (LN), then y = LN(x), is the same as sayinig x = ey.
Logarithmic equation
If y is an exponential function of x then x is a logarithmic function of y - so to change from an exponential function to a logarithmic function, change the subject of the function from one variable to the other.
Apex: false A logarithmic function is not the same as an exponential function, but they are closely related. Logarithmic functions are the inverses of their respective exponential functions. For the function y=ln(x), its inverse is x=ey For the function y=log3(x), its inverse is x=3y For the function y=4x, its inverse is x=log4(y) For the function y=ln(x-2), its inverse is x=ey+2 By using the properties of logarithms, especially the fact that a number raised to a logarithm of base itself equals the argument of the logarithm: aloga(b)=b you can see that an exponential function with x as the independent variable of the form y=f(x) can be transformed into a function with y as the independent variable, x=f(y), by making it a logarithmic function. For a generalization: y=ax transforms to x=loga(y) and vice-versa Graphically, the logarithmic function is the corresponding exponential function reflected by the line y = x.
The inverse of a logarithmic function is an exponential function. So to find the "inverse" of the log function, you use the universal power key, unless you're finding the inverse of a natural log, then you use the e^x key.
