Lesson
Domain and Range of
1 Logarithmic Functions
The domain of a function is the set of possible values of the independent variable. The
range is the set of the resulting values that the dependent variable can have as x varies
throughout the domain. This module focuses on the domain and range of a logarithmic
function.
What’s In
To fully understand this topic, let us recall some concepts from the previous
lessons on exponential function and its relationship with its inverse function, the
logarithmic function. So that it will be easier for you to grasp the next lesson.
Let us start with the definition of an exponential function which is a function of
the form
1 𝑥 1 −2𝑥
Examples are as follows: f(x) = 3 X, 𝑓(𝑥) = (2) , g(x) =2-X, and 𝑦 = (5) . Its
domain is a set of real numbers while its range is a set of all positive real numbers.
Let us also recall that if a function is a one-to-one function, then an inverse
function exists denoted by f-1 having the following properties:
● f-1 is a one-to-one function
● domain of f-1 is the range of f
● range of f-1 is the domain of f
If the position of x and y in y = b x are interchanged and then y is solved for the
resulting equation, the rule of correspondence of the inverse of the exponential function
is obtained. This rule is denoted by the symbol:
𝑦=𝑥
Since the exponential function is one-to-one, its inverse must also be a function.
Just like in the exponential function, where b > 0, and b ≠ 1.
Let us also recall lessons regarding domain and range of a function by answering
the following:
a. 𝑓(𝑥 ) = 2𝑥 + 5
3
b. 𝑓(𝑥) = √𝑥 − 3
𝑥+3
c. 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑥−2
Solution:
a. 𝑓(𝑥 ) = 2𝑥 + 5
b. 𝑓(𝑥) = √𝑥 − 3
x-3 ≥ 0
x≥3
𝑥+3
3. 𝑓(𝑥) =
𝑥−2
Let us help Mang Kulas to find his lost carabao by going through the maze. Find
the domain of the given logarithmic functions to get to the carabao.
What is It
5
In the previous activity, you need to help Mang Kulas to find his lost carabao by
going through the maze. In doing so, you need to answer by finding the domain of the
logarithmic functions given.
If you think that the activity is difficult, that is okay because after you read more about
domain and range of logarithmic function, you can go back to the activity and help Mang
Kulas to find his carabao. The discussion below will help you to understand more the
domain and range of the logarithmic function.
The domain of a function is the set of all possible values of the independent
variable x. The possible values of the independent variable x are often called inputs.
The range of the function are the corresponding values of the dependent variable y. The
corresponding values of the dependent variable y are often called outputs.
In the case of a logarithmic function, its domain is defined as a set of all positive
real numbers while its range is a set of real numbers.
