Yes, in a sense, logarithms are themselves exponents. Logarithms have bases, just as do exponentials; for instance, log5(25) stands for the power that you have to put on the base 5 in order to get the argument 25. So log5(25) = 2, because 52 = 25....
Infinitesimals:“Do the math” in a different dimension, and bring it back to the “standard” one (just like taking the real part of a complex number; you take the “standard” part of a hyperreal number — more later) Nobody ever told me: Calculus lets you work at a better level o...
The answer has to be worked out — exponents are a way of saying “Begin with these conditions, start changing, and see where you end up”. The expand-o-tron (or our calculator) does the work by crunching the numbers to get the final scaling factor. But someone has to do it. Unders...
aHe certainly did not recognise any connection between his work and that on logarithms 他一定没有认可他的工作和那之间的任何连接在对数 [translate] a功效:胡萝卜含有胡萝卜素,即维生素A元,人体摄入后可转化成维生素A,对皮肤粗糙、口唇干裂、干眼症有一定防治作用。 Effect: The carrot includes the carrot ...
I did not do too well on that unit, but we're doing logarithms now so I'll get more work with functions. Looks like you just accidentally shifted the graph to the left instead of the right. To shift a quadratic to the right, you have to subtract a number from x inside the expone...
But first let us consider an intriguing property of logarithms. Addition is multiplication Imagine you are a bubble in the World of Bubbles. You just started out and you are of meager size 0.69 which is equivalent to natural log of 2....
Q: How do lenses that concentrate light not violate the second law of thermodynamics? If you use a magnifying glass to burn ants, aren’t you making a point hotter than the ambient temperature without losing energy? Q: What makes natural logarithms natural? What’s so special about the numb...
of variability. It turns out that relative computer performance numbers on related benchmarks tend to follow a *lognormal* distribution, whose appropriate mean is a Geometric mean, which is short a shorthand way of computing an average of logarithms and than back-transforming to the original ...
Kids from 2nd & 3rd grade come to this page, but so do high school seniors, and since I don't know whether Pat is in 2nd grade or senior year, starting with "depending on your grade level" seemed appropriate. But you certainly realize that a P.E. knows what logarithms are, so "be...
