Then the pH of the new liquid is Using the product rule of logs pH = −log(2C) pH = −log(2C) = −(log(2) + log(C)) = −log(2) − log(C) Since P = −log(C), the new pH is pH = P − log(2) ≈ P − 0.30... |

tions tells us that, for any real numbers x > 0, S > 0, T > 0 and any positive real number b, where b ≠ 1, logb(S) = logb(T) if and only if S = T. For example, If log2(x − 1) = log2(8), then x − 1 = 8. So, if x − 1 = 8, then we can solve for x, and we get x = 9. To check, we can substitute x = 9 into the original equat... |

s Building a logistic Model from Data Like exponential and logarithmic growth, logistic growth increases over time. One of the most notable differences with logistic growth models is that, at a certain point, growth steadily slows and the function approaches an upper bound, or limiting value. Because of this, logistic ... |

or, we can use angles to describe the speed of a moving object. An object traveling in a circular path has two types of speed. Linear speed is speed along a straight path and can be determined by the distance it moves along (its displacement) in a given time interval. For instance, if a wheel with radius 5 inches rotat... |
