he logarithmic function logb%28+x%29and the exponential function b%5Ex are inverse+of each other, hence
y+=+logb%28+x%29 is equivalent to x+=+b%5Ey

where b+is the common base of the exponential and the logarithm.



The exponential form 10%5Ex=u-3 is equivalent to the logarithmic form
x=+log10%28u-3%29
