1. Why does the graph of the basic exponential function
, where b>0, and b not 1) lie entirely above the x-axis?
is positive above the x-axis
suggest b = 2
Now, plug some variables:
x = -1 . y = 1/2
x = 0 . y = 1
x = 1 . y = 2
always remains positive and greater than zero
2. Explain the difference between natural logarithms and common logarithms.
Natural logs: base of
Common logs: base of
