Logarithmic function and Graph
we have seen how to calculate the logarithm of a
single value e g In 2 1092 5
Using the logarithm we can define a function
that outputs logic for different values of a

A standard logarithmic function is a function

f Gc log bae
where b 0 and b I

think about y log be if I was
negative
this means
anything inside a logarithm must be
