Consider the product rule: logb(uw) = logb(u) + logb(w). Let a = logb(uw), c = logb(u), and d = logb(w). Then, by deﬁnitio...

ln(x) as (−1) ln(x). We can then use the Power Rule to obtain (−1) ln(x) = ln x−1. In order to use the Quotient Rule, we need to write 1 2 as a natural logarithm. Theorem 6.3 gives us 1 e).

). Typing the latter in the calculator produces an answer of 9 as required. 2. Here, a = 2 and b = e so we have 2x = ex ln(2). To verify this on our calculator, we can graph f (x) = 2x and g(x) = ex ln(2). Their graphs are indistinguishable which provides evidence that they are the same function. 4The authors feel so s...

. The one-to-one property of exponential functions, detailed in Theorem 6.4, tells us that 2x = 27 if and only if x = 7. This means that not only is x = 7 a solution to 2x = 27, it is the only solution. Now suppose we change the problem ever so slightly to 2x = 129. We could use one of the inverse properties of exponen...

Since it is not convenient to express both sides as a power of 3 (or 7 for that matter) we use ln 3x+2 = ln 72x. The power...
and Logarithmic Functions. Since natural log is log base e, ln e−2t = −2t. We can also use gives ln e−2t = ln 1 9 = − ln(9). Putting these two steps together, we simplify the Power Rule to write ln 1 9 to −2t = − ln(9). We arrive at our solution, t = ln(9) ln e−2t = ln 1 2 which simpliﬁes to 9 t = ln(3). (Can you expl...

Of course, if we rewrite e−x = 1 ex, we see we have another denominator lurking in the problem: ex − 1 ex = 10. Clearing this denominator gives u...

Some fall out quite quickly, while others are more involved. We leave them to the reader. Since exponential functions are continuous on their domains, the Interm...
note that r is undeﬁned when its denominator ex − 4 = 0, or when ex = 4. Solving this gives x = ln(4), so the domain of r is (−∞, ln(4)) ∪ (ln(4), ∞). To ﬁnd the zeros of r, we solve r(x) = 0 and obtain 12 − 2ex = 0. Solving for ex, we ﬁnd ex = 6, or x = ln(6). When we build our sign diagram, ﬁnding test values may be...
− 4x < 0. We set r(x) = xe2x − 4x and since there are no denominators, even-indexed radicals, or logs, the domain of r is all real numbers. Setting r(x) = 0 produces xe2x − 4x = 0. We factor to get x e2x − 4 = 0 which gives x = 0 or e2x − 4 = 0. To solve the latter, we isolate the exponential and take logs to get 2x =...
Solution. We need to ﬁnd when T (t) > 100, or in other words, we need to solve the inequality 70 + 90e−0.1t > 100. Getting 0 on one side of the inequality, we have 90e−0.1t − 30 > 0, and we set r(t) = 90e−0.1t − 30. The domain of r is artiﬁcially restricted due to the context of the problem to [0, ∞), so we proceed to...

While these expressions look identical, neither is a real number,1 which means x = 1 is not in th...
= g(x) = 1 4. Taking a cue from the previous problem, we begin solving log7(1 − 2x) = 1 − log7(3 − x) by ﬁrst collecting the logarithms on the same side, log7(1 − 2x) + log7(3 − x) = 1, and then using the Product Rule to get log7[(1 − 2x)(3 − x)] = 1. Rewriting this as an exponential equation gives 71 = (1−2x)(3−x) wh...
we gather the logs to one side to get the equation 1 = 2 log2(x) − 2 log4(x + 1). Before we can combine the logarithms, however, we need a common base. Since 4 is a power of 2, we use change of base to convert log4(x + 1) = log2(x + 1) log2(4) = 1 2 log2(x + 1) Hence, our original equation becomes 2 log2(x + 1) 1 = 2 ...

of the logarithm, we require x+1 > 0, or x > −1. To ﬁnd the zeros of r, we set r(x) = x log(x + 1) − x = 0. Factoring, we get x (log(x + 1) − 1) = 0, which gives x = 0 or log(x+1)−1 = 0. The latter gives log(x+1) = 1, or x + 1 = 101, which admits x = 9. We select test values x so that x + 1 is a power of 10, and we ob...
