Convert between natural exponential and logarithmic form

Convert between natural exponential and logarithmic form

What you'll learn

  • Identify the mode (most frequent number) in a given set of up to 10 numbers with 80% accuracy.
  • Solve for the range (difference between the biggest and smallest number) in a set of data containing up to 10 numbers with 75% accuracy.
  • Explain what the mean (average) is and how to find it using addition and division, with supporting examples, in their own words.
  • Apply the steps to find the median (middle number) in a set of up to 9 numbers, arranged in order from least to greatest, with 70% accuracy.
  • Explain in their own words what mean, median, mode, and range each tell us about a set of numbers.

Introduction & Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives Define the natural logarithm (ln) and its relationship to the base e. Identify the base, exponent, and argument in both natural exponential and logarithmic expressions. Accurately convert an equation from natural exponential form (y = e^x) to its equivalent natural logarithmic form (x = ln(y)). Accurately convert an equation from natural logarithmic form (x = ln(y)) to its equivalent natural exponential form (y = e^x). Solve simple equations for a variable by converting between the two forms. Evaluate basic natural logarithmic expressions by converting them to exponential form. Ever wonder how scientists model things that grow constantly, like a bacterial culture or money in a special savings account? 🌿💰 It all comes down to a special number and its inv...

Key Concepts & Vocabulary

TermDefinitionExample The Number e (Euler's Number)An irrational mathematical constant, approximately equal to 2.71828. It is the base of the natural logarithm and is used to model continuous growth and decay.The value of e^1 is approximately 2.71828. Natural Exponential FormAn equation written with a base of 'e' raised to an exponent. The general form is y = e^x.The equation P = 100e^(0.05t) is in natural exponential form. Natural Logarithm (ln)A logarithm with a base of 'e'. The expression ln(x) is a shorthand way of writing logₑ(x). It answers the question: 'To what power must e be raised to get x?'ln(e^2) = 2, because the power you must raise e to in order to get e^2 is 2. Natural Logarithmic FormAn equation written using the natural logarithm. The g...

Core Formulas

Conversion: Exponential to Logarithmic If e^x = y, then ln(y) = x Use this rule to rewrite an equation from exponential form into logarithmic form. This is essential when you need to solve for a variable that is in the exponent. Conversion: Logarithmic to Exponential If ln(y) = x, then e^x = y Use this rule to rewrite an equation from logarithmic form into exponential form. This is the key step to solving for a variable that is inside a natural logarithm.
