Document Summary
Provide a generalization to each of the key terms listed in this section. The natural log, which is sometimes called log base e , can be written as the following: ln(x) = lne(x) The common log, which is sometimes called log base 10 , can be written as the following: Change of base formula log (x) = log10 (x) a 6= 1. 6= 1 x : p ositive real n umbers logax = logax = logax = logbx logba log x log a ln x ln a. Algebraic functions are functions that are or can be composed of algebraic operations, which are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and even division. Transcendental functions are functions that are not or can"t be composed of algebraic operations. The following is a chart with examples of algebraic and transcendental functions: A function"s transformation occurs when a function gets either compressed, shifted, or even stretched to become a whole new function.
