What to Focus On

  • Logarithms and exponents are two forms of the same relation.
  • The base in a logarithm must not be 1.
  • log_a c = b means a^b = c.

  • log_x 1 = 0 for any positive base x.
  • log_x x = 1 for any positive base x.
  • These results come from x^0 = 1 and x^1 = x.

  • Exponential form uses powers.
  • Logarithmic form uses log notation.
  • Both forms represent the same number relation.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

log_a(m+n) = log_a m + log_a n

log_a(m-n) = log_a m - log_a n

(log_a m)/(log_a n) = log_a m - log_a n

Memory Tips

Logarithm as the exponent answer

Exponential and logarithmic forms are partners

A base cannot be 1

Logarithm of 1 is 0
