Question Answer
Level: Basic Skill convert form: log_a (b)= y a^y=b
Level: Difficult Have a little conversation with yourself. How can we put 32 in terms of base 4 ?
Level: Medium Have a little convo with yourself. Try something... perhaps with the squiggle trick? Or replacing something with "m" to make it a little nicer. x= 263
This looks messy and scary. For your viewing pleasure, please put this into "Log" format. Level: Medium Have a little convo with yourself. What kind of math tricks do you have up your sleeve to make this look better?
How can you be "confident" that you just rocked the last question? (And I didn't make a mistake in the answer?) Level: Easy Check whether left equation is EQUAL to right. This will show that I made "legal" math moves to get from one equation to the next.
What are the "NPV"s or limitations of logs? For the equation below. Level: Important X> 0, Y>0 and X cant be 1
What are rational functions? Do you think you can sketch f(x) = (x^2+3x)/(x^3+2) ? Yes you can =) An equation where there are "factors" on the top and bottom, that can be packed. They can originally look like polynomials on top and bottom of the fraction.
What do TOPs on rational functions tell us? f(x) = (x-2)(x-1) / (3-x) TOPS make 1)Horizontal Asymptotes 2)ROOTS
What do BOTTOMs on rational functions tell us? f(x) = (x-2)(x-1) / (3-x) 1) "POD" 2) Vertical Asymptotes
How do you know if there will be a 1)POD 2)Horizontal Asymptote 3) Vertical Asymptote? 1) POD: IF there is a factor on bottom, that GETS cancelled 2) HA: On top, IF top and bottom has same degree 3) V.A.: IF there is a factor on bottom that DOESN'T cancel out
Given all that you know, sketch: (x-6)(x+1)/(3-x) ...
Given all you know, get the equation for this. (The y-intercept is -1/5) f(x) = 2x^2/ (x+5)(x-5) but need to include y-intercept... when x=0, y = -1/5 f(x) = (2x^2 +5)/(x+5)(x-5)
What is the formula for logs, generally used in word problems? A=P(1+r)^t
If this is the general formula for a real life log question, what does each thing kind of mean? A=P(1+r)^t A= Final amount P= Initial amount (1+R) = What is it doing to itself each time e.g. 'half-ing' itself each time would be 0.5 t = The number of times it (1+R)'s itself, like the number of times it "halves" itself.
What does a log graph generally look like, and what other "function" does it relate to, and what are some things to remember about logs? 1. Climbing a hill. Invariant point at 1 with out translation. 2. INVERSE of an exponential function. (swap x and y) 3. Log of 1 is 0
How can I find the inverse of an exponential function y=2^x 1. Swap x and y (like all inverses...) x=2^y 2. Solve to get y= format... (but it's a variable in the exponent - so LOGS to the rescue) 3. answer: log2(x) = y
What is the general formula of a log, and what should I remember about vertical/horizontal shift and stretch for logs? y=alog(x-h)+k
