EXPONENTIAL AND

LOGARITHMIC
FUNCTION
 EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION
• EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION – IS A FUNCTION THAT CAN BE
EXPRESSED MATHEMATICALLY AS F(X) = B , WHERE B IS ANY
REAL NUMBER NOT EQUAL TO 1. SINCE B > 0, AND B ≠ 1, THEN
THE VALUE OF F(X) IS ALWAYS A POSITIVE REAL NUMBER
• 0 < BASE < 1 - BASE IS GREATER THAN 0 BUT LESS THAN 1
• B > 1 – BASE GREATER THAN 1
• B ≠ 1 – BASE IS NOT EQUAL TO 1
• > - IS GREATER THAN < - IS LESS THAN
 EXPONENTIAL FUNCTION
• EXPONENTIAL EQUATION – AN EQUATION THAT
INVOLVES THE EXPRESSION BP(X)
• EXPONENTIAL INEQUALITY – AN INEQUALITY
OF THE FORM BX ≤ C OR BX ≥ C, OR ANY
VARIATION.
• ≥ IS GREATER THAN OR EQUAL TO
•
