Algebra.Com's Answer #197492 by jsmallt9(3758)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! All you need is a calculator that \"knows\" natural logarithms (ln). And if your calculator can handle parentheses it is very easy. \n" ); document.write( "You are asked to evaluate the logarithm for 7 values of x (-1, 3 greater than -1 and 3 between -1 and -2). For each of these values of x you find ln(x+2). The result you get from your calculator will be the y value that goes with that x. \n" ); document.write( "I'll do one for you. Let's try x = 0 (one of the 3 numbers greater than -1). \n" ); document.write( "y = ln((0)+2) \n" ); document.write( "y = ln(2) \n" ); document.write( "Here is where we use our calculator to find ln(2): \n" ); document.write( "y = 0.6931471805599453 \n" ); document.write( "Just repeat this for the other 6 values and you will end up with 7 ordered pairs (which you could use to graph the equation if you were asaked to graph it). \n" ); document.write( " |
