    1) The graph of a logarithmic function is the reflection of an exponential function's graph about the line y=x. 2) The inverse of an exponential function f(x) = a^x is the logarithmic function g(x) = log_a(x), which is obtained by switching the x and y coordinates of the exponential function. 3) Common logarithms have a base of 10, while natural logarithms have an e base. When the logarithm and its inverse (exponential) function are composed with each other, they inverse out and leave the original argument.

    GRAPHS OF LOGARITHMIC FUNCT
    ION
    WHAT IS LOGARITHMIC FUNCTION?
    The graph of inverse function of anyfunction is the
    reflection of the graph of the function about the line.
    So, the graph of the logarithmic function y=3× is the
    reflection of the below graph.
    INVERSE OF EXPONENTIAL FUNCTIONS
    We stated in the section on exponential function, that exponential functions were one-to-one. One-
    to-one functions had the special property that they have inverses that are also functions.One-to-
    one functions can be applied to both sides of an equation. They also pass is horizontal line test.
    This section is about the inverse of the exponential function. The inverse of an exponential
    function is a logarithmic function. Remember that the inverse of a function is obtained by switching
    the x and y coordinates. This reflects the graph about the line y=x. As you can see, the logarithmic
    curve is the reflection of the exponential curve .
    The table below demonstrates how the x and y
    values of the points on the exponential curve
    can be switched to find the coordinates of th
    e points on the logarithmic curve.

    COMPARISON OF EXPONENTIAL AND LOGAR
    ITHMIC FUNCTIONS
    The standard form for a logarithmic function is: y=log³x

    WORKING DEFINITION OF LOGARITHM


    In the exponential function, the x was the exponent.The
    purpose of the inverse function is to tell you what x value
    was used when you already know the y value. So, the
    purpose of the logarithm is to tell you the exponent.
    Thus, our simple definition of a logarithm is that it is an
    exponent.

    EQUIVALENT FORMS
    The logarithmic form lf the equation y=logaX is equivalent
    to the exponential form x=aY.
    PROPERTIES OF LOGARITHMS
    loga 1=0 because a0=1
    No matter what the base is, as long as it is legal the log of 1 is
    always 0. That's because logarithmic curves always pass
    through (1, 0).
    loga a= 1 because a¹= a
    Any value raised to the first power is that same value.

    loga ax= x
    The log base a of x and a to the x power are inverse
    functions. Whenever inverse fumctions are applied to each
    other, they inverse out, and you're left with argument, in
    the case, x.
    logax= logay implies that x = y
    If two logs with the same base are equal, then the
    arguments must be equal.
    log a X = log b X implies that a = b
    f two logarithms with the same argument are equal, the
    the bases must be equal.

    COMMON LOGS AND NATURAL LOGS


    There are two logarithm buttons on your calculator. One is
    marked "log" and the other is marked "In". Neither one of
    these has the base written in. The base can be determined,
    however, by looking at the inverse function, which is written
    above the key and accessed by the 2ND key.

    COMMON LOGARITHM (base 10)


    When you see " log" written, with no base, assume the base
    is 10.
    That is log x=log10x.
    NATURAL LOGARITHMS (BASE E)

    When you see "In" written the base is e.

    Since "In x" and " ex" are inverse function of each
    other, anytime an "In" and "e" appear right next to
    each other, with absolutely nothing in between them
    (that is, when they are composed to each other), then
    they inverse out, and you're left with the argument.
