3 to the power of x equals 18 what does x equal?
3x = 18Take the logarithm of each side:x log(3) = log(18)Divide each side by log(3):x = log(18) / log(3) = 1.25527 / 0.47712x = 2.63093 (rounded)
Simplify log3 times 1 over 3?
Log(3 * 1/3) = log(1) = 0
What is log base 3 of (x plus 1) log base 2 of (x-1)?
The browser which is used for posting questions is almost totally useless for mathematical questions since it blocks most symbols.I am assuming that your question is about log base 3 of (x plus 1) plus log base 2 of (x-1).{log[(x + 1)^log2} + {log[(x - 1)^log3}/log(3^log2) where all the logs are to the same base - whichever you want. The denominator can also be written as log(3^log2)This can be simplified (?) to log{[(x + 1)^log2*(x - 1)^log3}/log(3^log2).As mentioned above, the expression can be to any base and so the expression becomesin base 2: log{[(x + 1)*(x - 1)^log3}/log(3) andin base 3: log{[(x + 1)^log2*(x - 1)}/log(2)
What is the log of base 2?
for example x=log of(3)2 then 2x=3 so 3divided by 2 and answer is 1.5
Give an example of an exponential function Find this exponential function's inverse which will be a logarithmic function Plot the graph of both the functions?
An exponential function can be is of the form f(x) = a*(b^x). Some examples are f1(x) = 3*(10^x), or f2(x) = e^(-2*x). Note that the latter still fits the format, with b = e^(-2). The inverse is the logarithmic function. So for y = f1(x) = 3*(10^x), reverse the x & y, and solve for y:x = 3*(10^y)log(x) = log(3*(10^y)) = log(3) + log(10^y) = log(3) + y*log(10) = y*1 + log(3)y = log(x) - log(3) = log(x/3)The second function: y = e^(-2*x), the inverse is: x = e^(-2*y).ln(x) = ln(e^(-2*y)) = -2*y*ln(e) = -2*y*1y = -ln(x)/2 = ln(x^(-1/2))See related link for an example graph.
