Name two coordinates on the graph of the function.
How does the graph behave as x increases?
Write the equation of the vertical asymptote in the graph of the function.
Graph the function by hand, and check your result with your calculator.
a. y=1+log3x b.y=log1/4x
c. y=ln(x-1) d.2 ln(x)-1
2. Rewrite the following expressions using a single logarithm.
a. log(3x)+2log(y)-log(z-1)
b.1/3ln(h)-log2(k)+ln(4m^2)
3. Using the function given in this lesson,p(h)=-log(h) , answer the
following questions:
a. What is the pH value of a solution with 0.004 mole of hydrogen ion?
b. What is the concentration of hydrogen ions of a solution with a pH of
7.2?


topic#3

1. Using the function given in Topic #2, p(h)=-log(h) , what is the
concentration of hydrogen ions of a solution with a pH of 7.2? Use the
techniques you learned in this lesson to solve this problem, and check it
with your answer to #3 in your homework assignment for Topic #2.

2. You’re cooking some spaghetti noodles in a pot, and you just turned off
the stove. Right when you turned the stove off, your pot was 215ºF. Ten
minutes later, your pot is 150ºF, and the temperature of your kitchen is
76ºF. (You do not remove the pot from the stove.)
a. Write an equation that represents the temperature of the pot with
respect to time, and graph your function. Write the equation of the
horizontal asymptote of your graph, and interpret what it represents in the
context of this problem.
b. When will the temperature of the pot be 90ºF? (Find your answer
algebraically.)
