Title: 6_4 The Logarithmic Function
Course: HELM Workbooks 2023-2024 > Section: HELM 6: Exponential and Logarithmic Functions

In this quiz we consider the logarithmic function \(y = \log_a x\) and examine its important characteristics.

We see that this function is only defined if \(x\) is a positive number. We also see that the log function is the inverse of the exponential function and vice versa.

We show, through numerous examples, how equations involving logarithms and exponentials can be solved.
