Does an exponent have an opposite?

The inverse function of the exponential is the logarithm.


What is inverse of exponential function?

The logarithm function. If you specifically mean the function ex, the inverse function is the natural logarithm. However, functions with bases other than "e" might also be called exponential functions.


What is the difference between a logarithmic function and a natural exponential function?

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.


How do you convert a logarithm in to a exponential?

A logarithm can not be converted in to an exponential, as an exponential is defined for all real numbers, while a logarithm is only defined for numbers greater than zero. However, a logarithm can be related to an exponential by the fact that they are inverses of each other. e.g. if y = 2^x the x = log2y


What is the purpose of semi logarithm?

The y-axis on a semi logarithmic chart is exponential. This way, when an exponential function is depicted in the chart, it will evolve as a linear function. You often do this to proove that the function is exponential and/or as a tool to help you find the equation for the function. For more see: http://www.answers.com/topic/semi-logarithmic-plot


Are there points of discontinuity for exponential functions?

There are no points of discontinuity for exponential functions since the domain of the general exponential function consists of all real values!


Why negative numbers don't have logarithim?

The logarithmic function is not defined for zero or negative numbers. Logarithms are the inverse of the exponential function for a positive base. Any exponent of a positive base must be positive. So the range of any exponential function is the positive real line. Consequently the domain of the the inverse function - the logarithm - is the positive real line. That is, logarithms are not defined for zero or negative numbers. (Wait until you get to complex analysis, though!)


Is y equals e-x an exponential function?

Yes, the equation ( y = e^{-x} ) represents an exponential function. In this function, ( e ) is the base of the natural logarithm, and the exponent is a linear function of ( x ) (specifically, (-x)). Exponential functions are characterized by their constant base raised to a variable exponent, and ( e^{-x} ) fits this definition.


What is not a characteristic of an exponential parent function?

Periodicity is not a characteristic.


What does LN button on graphing calculator mean?

The LN button on a graphing calculator represents the natural logarithm function, which is the logarithm to the base e, where e is approximately equal to 2.71828. It is commonly used in mathematics, particularly in calculus and exponential growth problems, to solve equations involving exponential functions. The natural logarithm has useful properties, such as converting multiplication into addition, which can simplify complex calculations.


What is the parent function for a logarithm?

anti logarithm
