There is no answer - it is an error: negative numbers do not have logarithms. The log if a number tells to what power the (positive) base must be raised to get the number. Raising any positive number to any power will never result in a negative number, so it is an error to try and take the log of a negative number.
Logs are defined only for positive numbers so the log of a negative number does not exist.
Yes. The logarithm of 1 is zero; the logarithm of any number less than one is negative. For example, in base 10, log(0.1) = -1, log(0.01) = -2, log(0.001) = -3, etc.
Log(y) can be any number, positive or negative, no limits. It all depends on the value of 'y'.
the log of a number, X, is equal to some value , N, and by definition 10 to the N power =X 10 to any power is always positive
The negative log of a number is the log of the number's reciprocal ('1' divided by the number).

The logarithm of a number less than 1 is negative. Therefore, -log 0.5 is the negative logarithm of 0.5 which is equal to -0.301.

once you are log in you will see your tamagotchi on screen. then it will say your log out number.
Log(y) can be any number, positive or negative, no limits. It all depends on the value of 'y'.
Because the log of zero is "negative infinity", and the calculator display is too narrow to display that number.
the log of a number, X, is equal to some value , N, and by definition 10 to the N power =X 10 to any power is always positive
The log phase of a bacterial growth curve represents exponential growth in cell number. It is followed by the stationary phase, where cell growth stabilizes. The death phase shows a decrease in cell number, but it may not necessarily follow a negative logarithmic trend.
some times dams have negitives effects I added the answer below to a link of a Yahoo answer; however, it IS possible to calculate the log of a negative number but you have to work in complex numbers.
pH is a pure number. It doesn't have units. It is the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration.
