Question 314902: please can someone help. i feel as though i am never going to get this problem solved. it is involving the following:
evaluate the logarithmic equation for the values of x that are greater than 1, and at x=1
show work and use resulting pairs to plot graph...show graph.
i got it with the other one but keep messing up with the log ones.
How you go about doing this depends on whether or not your calculator is capable of finding logs to bases other than 10 and . (Or if you have the ability to use MS Excel which has an any-base log function built-in)
If you can take the base 2 log directly, then just pick some numbers and punch your calculator (or provide appropriate arguments to the Excel function).
If not, you have to use the base conversion formula:
For your problem, you can use either base 10 or natural logs, you get the same answer either way.
Just pick values for according to the instructions in the problem and punch your calculator.
