You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Well, you want to work out each function for each value of x so using f(x) = 10^x and g(x) = ln(x), you get:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "f(1) = 10
\n" ); document.write( "f(2) = 100
\n" ); document.write( "f(4) = 10000
\n" ); document.write( "f(8) = 100000000
\n" ); document.write( "f(16) = 10000000000000000\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "g(1) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "g(2) = 0.69
\n" ); document.write( "g(4) = 1.39
\n" ); document.write( "g(8) = 2.08
\n" ); document.write( "g(16) = 2.77\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, 10^x increases faster the higher x is, but ln(x) increases at a slower rate the higher x goes. It also helps to understand that ln(2^x) = x*ln(2) as this relates all the answers for ln(x). \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
