Explain how to use the graph of f(x) = 2x to obtain the graph of g(x) = log2x.
------------
Graph y = 2x:

-----
g(x) = log(2x) has (0,+inf) as its domain
so there is no g(x) on the interval (-inf,0)
---
Draw log(2x) = log(2) + logx
= 0.3010 + log (x)
Draw a horizontal line at y = 0.3010.
Draw y = log(x) over the interval (0,+inf) to get:
