The log requires positive arguments.



Start with values of , calculate y using the equation, plot the ordered pairs, then connect the points with straight lines.
(-1.5,2.301)
(-2,2)
(-2.5,1.824)
(-3,1.699)
(-3.5,1.602)
(-4,1.523)
(-4.5,1.456)
(-5,1.398)
(-5.5,1.347)
(-6,1.301)

Continue until you feel you have enough points.
The more points, the smoother the curve, but the more work you need to do.
