I.

Research on how to solve logarithmic equations and answer the following:

1. log 4 𝑥=-2

2. log 𝑥 3=2

3. log1/2( 3𝑥 + 1)=2

4. log 49 √7=x

II.

1) 𝑓(𝑥) = log 2 𝑥 2) g(𝑥) = log 3 𝑥 3)h(𝑥) = log1/3 𝑥

1) a. The graph passes through the negative part of the y-axis then curves to the right through the
x and y coordinate (1, 2) and stretches to positive infinity.
b. The domain is (0, ꝏ).
c. The range is (-ꝏ, ꝏ).
 d. The x-intercept is (1,0). There is no y-intercept.
e. The vertical asymptote is x=0.

2) a. The graph passes through the negative part of the y-axis then curves sharply through the x-
coordinate (1,0) and stretches to positive infinity.

b. The domain is (1, ꝏ)

c. The range is (-ꝏ, ꝏ)

d. The x-intercept is (1,0). There is no y-intercept.

e. The vertical asymptote is x=0.

3) a. The graph passes through the positive part of the y-axis then curves sharply through the x-
coordinate (1,0) and stretches to negative infinity.

b. The domain is (0, ꝏ),

c. The range is (-ꝏ, ꝏ).

d. The x-intercept is (1,0). There is no y-intercept.

e. The vertical asymptote is x=0.

Generalization: Describe the graph of Graph of 𝑔(𝑥) = log 𝑎 𝑥 in terms of the ff.

As a increases, the graph starts to face the other way around (from facing up, it faces down).
The domain still is consistent which is (0, ꝏ). The range will always be (-ꝏ, ꝏ). The x-intercept is always
at (1,0). The vertical asymptote is always x=0.
