Study Notes
Unit 3 Test Review: Exponential, Logistic, & Logarithmic Functions
- Calculator Inactive: Problems focus on applying logarithm properties, solving logarithmic equations, and writing exponential functions.
Properties of Logarithms
- Expanding Logs: Logarithms of products, quotients, and powers can be separated and simplified.
- Example: log3(x3y/3z2) = log3(x3) + log3(y) - log3(3) - log3(z2)
Solving Logarithmic Equations
- Example 1: 3log2x + 1 = 7
- Solution: The steps to solve for x involve isolating the log term, using properties of exponents, and applying appropriate conversions between log and exponential forms.
- Example 2: log√10 = x
- Solution: Using the property of logarithms, the equation is solved by rewriting in exponential form.
Earthquake Magnitude
- Comparing magnitudes: Earthquakes' relative magnitudes are calculated using logarithms.
Exponential Functions
- Conditions: Problems often specify initial population, growth/decay rate, and time to determine the required exponential equations.
- Formulas: Use formula P(t) = P0(1 ± r)t where P0 is initial population, r is rate of change, and t is time.
- Example: Initial population 67000, decreasing at 1.67% per year → P(t) = 67000(0.9833)t
Converting Between Logarithmic and Exponential Forms
- Key skill: Converting between logarithm and exponential forms is essential.
- Example: Rewriting log3(x) = 8/3 as an exponential expression.
Condensing and Simplifying Logarithms
- Combining terms: Multiple logarithms can be condensed using logarithm properties.
- Example: Simplifying 2ln(xy2) - 3ln(y) = ln(x2y4 / y3)
Calculator Active Problems
- Exponential equations: Various problems require solving exponential equations involving natural logarithms.
- Example: 100e-4x = 75
Modeling with Exponential Functions
- Word problems: Problems often involve population growth and decay, or exponential functions and solving for specific variables like time.
pH and Hydrogen Ion Concentration
- pH scale: pH is calculated using the inverse of the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
- Relationship: A change of 1 pH unit corresponds to a 10-fold change in hydrogen ion concentration.
Compound Interest
- Continuously compounding interest: Calculate compound interest using the formula A = Pert
Graphing and Analyzing Exponential Functions
- Domain and range: Identify the domain and range from graphs or given equations.
