Enter the data from Table 2 into a graphing calculator and graph the ranking scatter plot. Determine whetherthe data from the table would likely represent a function that is linear, exponential, or logarithmic.
How do you find the domain of a logarithmic function?
Human Memory Model Students in a learning theory study took an exam and then retested monthly for 6 months with an equivalent exam. The data obtained in the study are given by the ordered pairs t,s, where t is the time (in months) after the initial exam and s is the average score for the class. Use the data to find a logarithmic equation that relates t and s. 1,84.2,2,78.4,3,72.1,4,68.5,5,67.1,6,65.3
The inverse of every logarithmic function is anexponential function and vice-versa. What doesthis tell us about the relationship between thecoordinates of the points on the graphs ofeach?
DICUSS DISCOVER: The Number of Digits in an integer Compare log1000 to the number of digits in 1000. Do the same for 10,000. How many digits does any number between 1000and10, 000 have? Between what two values must the common logarithm of such a number lie? Use your observations to explain why the number of digits in any positive integer xislogx+1. The symbol n is the greatest integer function defined in Section 2.2. How many digits does the number 2100 have?
The intensitylevels I of two earthquakes measured ona seismograph can be compared by the formula logI1I2=M1M2 where M is the magnitude given by the Richter Scale. In August 2009, an earthquake of magnitude 6.1 hitHonshu, Japan. In March 2011, that same regionexperienced yet another, more devastating earthquake, this time with a magnitude of 9.0.[23] Haw many timesgreater was the intensity of the 2011 earthquake?Round to the nearest whole number.
