ln stands for the function that associates a value with it natural logarithm or, in other words, its logarithm to the base e.

You are probably familiar with common or base 10 logarithms and know that, for instance, log10100 = 2 because 100 = 102.

ln works in the same way. loge e2 = 2. The value of e is about 2.71828. Therefore, loge 2.71828 ~=1. This function has characteristics that parallel those of base 10 logarithms.

Why is the symbol for natural log ln?

ln(ln)


If you have a number with the exponent x how do you find the answer?

Take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides of the equation to cancel the exponent (e). For example, ify=Aexlog transform both sides and apply the rules of logarithms:ln(y)=ln(Aex)ln(y)=ln(A)+ln(ex)ln(y)=ln(A)+xrearrange in terms of x:x=ln(y)-ln(A), or more simplyx=ln(y/A)


What is the derivative of y equals xlnx?

Use the product rule.y = x lnxy' = x (ln x)' + x' (ln x) = x (1/x) + 1 ln x = 1 + ln xUse the product rule.y = x lnxy' = x (ln x)' + x' (ln x) = x (1/x) + 1 ln x = 1 + ln xUse the product rule.y = x lnxy' = x (ln x)' + x' (ln x) = x (1/x) + 1 ln x = 1 + ln xUse the product rule.y = x lnxy' = x (ln x)' + x' (ln x) = x (1/x) + 1 ln x = 1 + ln x

Solve or x 2 ln 9 plus 2 ln 5 equals 2 ln x minus 3?

2 ln(9) + 2 ln(5) = 2 ln(x) - 3ln(81) + ln(25) = ln(x2) - 37.61332 = ln(x2) - 3ln(x2) = 10.61332ln(x) = 5.30666x = e5.30666 = 201.676 (rounded)


How do you solve for x 3 ln x - ln 3x equals 0?

Simplify In e to the 7th power?

It depends. If you mean (ln e)7, then the answer is 1, since (ln e) = 1. If you mean ln(e7), then the answer is 7, since ln(e7) = 7 (ln e) and (ln e) = 1.

What is the equation for exponential interpolation?

The correct formula for exponential interpolation is: y =ya*(yb/ya)^[(x-xa)/(xb-xa)], xa<x<xb and also, x=xa*[ln(yb)-ln(y)]/[ln(yb)-ln(ya)]+xb*[ln(y)-ln(ya)]/[ln(yb)-ln(ya)], ya<y<yb


Do any positive real numbers alpha and beta exist such that lnalpha times beta equals lnalpha plus lnbeta and if so what are they?

I assume the question is NOT about ln(a*b) = ln(a) + ln(b) because that is true for all positive real a and b. Instead, you want a solution to ln(a) * b = ln(a) + ln(b) or, ln(a) * (b-1) = ln(b) ln(a) = ln(b)/(b-1) ln(a) = ln[b1/(b-1)] Exponentiating, a = b1/(b-1) For any real number b > 1, a given by the above equation will meet your requirements.
