Study Notes
Indices
- Basic Rules:
- a^m * a^n = a^(m+n)
- (a^m)^n = a^(m*n) = (a^n)^m
- (ab)^m = a^m * b^m
- (a/b)^m = a^m / b^m
- (a^p * a^q)^m= a^(pm) * a^(qm)
- a^m / a^n = a^(m-n)
- (a^p / b^q)^m = a^(pm) / b^(qm)
- (a/b)^(-m) = (b/a)^m
- Surds Theorem
- √m(b^n) = (√m b)^n = (√n b)^m = b^(n/m)
- √n(ab) = √n( a) * √n(b)
- √n(a^m) = a^(m/n)
- a^(n/m) = √m(a^n)
- √n(a/b) = √n(a) / √n(b)
- Logarithms Theorem
- a^y = x, therefore y = log(a)x
- log(a) xy = log(a) x + log(a) y
- log(a) x^c = c * log(a) x
- log(a) (x / y) = log(a) x - log(a) y
- log(a) 1 = 0
- log(a) a = 1
- a^(log(a) x) = x
- log(b) N / log(a) N = log(b) a
- log(b) a = 1 / log(a) b
Polynomials
- P(x) = Q(x)D(x) + r(x)
- Q(x) = quotient
- D(x) = divisor
- r(x) = remainder
Examples
- Evaluate (log3m)(logm81)
- Simplify 81 as 3^4
- Apply log(a)a = 1 to simplify log(m) 81 = log(m) (3^4) = 4
- Answer = 4log(3)(m)
- Solve log(x) 8 = 1.5
- Write 1.5 as 3/2
- x^(3/2) = 8
- x = 8^(2/3)
- x = 4
- Simplify a. 3log2 + 2log5 - log20
- 3 log(2) + 2log(5) - log(20)
- Apply log(a) xy = log(a) x + log(a) y and log(a) (x / y) = log(a) x - log(a) y
- log(2^3) + log(5^2) - log(20)
- log (8 * 25 / 20) = log(10) = 1
- Show that log(bc) a = 5 log(c) a / 1 + log(c) b
- Apply log(a) a = 1 to simplify log(bc) a = log(c) a / log(c) bc
- Apply log(a) xy = log(a) x + log(a) y to simplify log(c) bc = log(c) b + log(c) c = 1+log(c) b
- log(bc)a = log(c)a / 1 + log(c)b
- Solve the simultaneous equations:
- log(2) (x-2y) = 5; log(2) x - log(4) y = 4
- Simplify log(4) y = log(2^2) y = 2log(2) y
- The equations are then: log(2)(x-2y) = 5; log(2)x - 2log(2)y = 4
- Solve as simultaneous linear equations in log(2)x and log(2)y
- log(2)x = 6; log(2)y = 1
- Calculate the solutions for x and y from log(2)x and log(2)y
- The solutions are x = 64, y = 2
