Logarithmic Functions

is always increasing or always decreasing Exponential functions are 1-1 neither x or y repeats1-1 functions have inverses logarithmic function with base LOGARITHMS ARE EXPONENTS!When you find a logarithm, you are finding an exponent of the base.

(y is the exponent of that yields x)
