7.4 Graphing Notes Alg II

This document provides instructions on graphing logarithmic functions by discussing their parent graphs and how translations affect the graph. It includes examples of graphing various logarithmic functions of the form y=logb(x-h)+k by first rewriting the function, making a table of values, and sketching the graph.

7.4  Graphing  Logarithmic  Functions   Name:    ________________________________  


Algebra  II               Date:    __________________    Period:    _____  
 
Since  logarithmic  functions  are  inverses  of  exponential  functions,  their  graphs  
are  reflections  of  each  other  over  y  =  x.
