Graph logarithmic functions. 6. graphs OF logarithmic FUnCTIOnS In Graphs of Eponential Functions, we saw how creating a graphical representation of an eponential model gives us another laer of insight for predicting future events. How do logarithmic graphs give us insight into situations? Because ever logarithmic function is the inverse function of an eponential function, we can think of ever output on a logarithmic graph as the input for the corresponding inverse eponential equation. In other words, logarithms give the cause for an effect. To illustrate, suppose we invest $,00 in an account that offers an annual interest rate of %, compounded continuousl. We alread know that the balance in our account for an ear t can be found with the equation A = 00e 0.0t. But what if we wanted to know the ear for an balance? We would need to create a corresponding new function b interchanging the input and the output; thus we would need to create a logarithmic model for this situation. B graphing the model, we can see the output (ear) for an input (account balance). For instance, what if we wanted to know how man ears it would take for our initial investment to double? Figure shows this point on the logarithmic graph. Years Logarithmic Model Showing Years as a Function of the Balance in the Account 00,000 e balance reaches $,000 near ear,00,000,00,000,00,000,00,000,00 6,000 Account balance Figure In this section we will discuss the values for which a logarithmic function is defined, and then turn our attention to graphing the famil of logarithmic functions. Finding the domain of a logarithmic Function Before working with graphs, we will take a look at the domain (the set of input values) for which the logarithmic function is defined. Recall that the eponential function is defined as = b for an real number and constant b > 0, b, where The domain of is (, ). The range of is (0, ). In the last section we learned that the logarithmic function = log b () is the inverse of the eponential function = b. So, as inverse functions: The domain of = log b () is the range of = b : (0, ). The range of = log b () is the domain of = b : (, ).

2 00 CHAPTER 6 eponential ANd logarithmic functions Transformations of the parent function = log b () behave similarl to those of other functions. Just as with other parent functions, we can appl the four tpes of transformations shifts, stretches, compressions, and reflections to the parent function without loss of shape. In Graphs of Eponential Functions we saw that certain transformations can change the range of = b. Similarl, appling transformations to the parent function = log b () can change the domain. When finding the domain of a logarithmic function, therefore, it is important to remember that the domain consists onl of positive real numbers. That is, the argument of the logarithmic function must be greater than zero. For eample, consider f () = log ( ). This function is defined for an values of such that the argument, in this case, is greater than zero. To find the domain, we set up an inequalit and solve for : > 0 > Add. Show the argument greater than zero. >. Divide b. In interval notation, the domain of f () = log ( ) is (., ). How To Given a logarithmic function, identif the domain.. Set up an inequalit showing the argument greater than zero.. Solve for.. Write the domain in interval notation. Eample Identifing the Domain of a Logarithmic Shift What is the domain of f () = log ( + )? Solution The logarithmic function is defined onl when the input is positive, so this function is defined when + > 0. Solving this inequalit, + > 0 The input must be positive. > Subtract. The domain of f () = log ( + ) is (, ). Tr It # What is the domain of f () = log ( ) +? Eample Identifing the Domain of a Logarithmic Shift and Reflection What is the domain of f () = log( )?

The famil of logarithmic functions includes the parent function = log b () along with all its transformations: shifts, stretches, compressions, and reflections. We begin with the parent function = log b (). Because ever logarithmic function of this form is the inverse of an eponential function with the form = b, their graphs will be reflections of each other across the line =. To illustrate this, we can observe the relationship between the input and output values of = and its equivalent = log () in Table. 0 = _ 8 8 log () = 0 Table Using the inputs and outputs from Table, we can build another table to observe the relationship between points on the graphs of the inverse functions f () = and g() = log (). See Table. f () =, _ 8, _, _ g() = log () _ 8, _, _, (0, ) (, ) (, ) (, 8) (, 0) (, ) (, ) (8, ) Table As we d epect, the - and -coordinates are reversed for the inverse functions. Figure shows the graph of f and g. f () = = g() = log () Figure notice that the graphs of f () = and g() = log () are reflections about the line =. Observe the following from the graph: f () = has a -intercept at (0, ) and g() = log () has an -intercept at (, 0). The domain of f () =, (, ), is the same as the range of g() = log (). The range of f () =, (0, ), is the same as the domain of g() = log ().

Observe that the graphs compress verticall as the value of the base increases. (Note: recall that the function ln() has base e.78.) f() (, 0) f() = log b () b > (b, ) Figure = 0 f() (b, ) (, 0) = 0 f () = log b () 0 < b < log () ln() log() Figure The graphs of three logarithmic functions with different bases, all greater than.

Graph f () = log (). State the domain, range, and asmptote. Solution Before graphing, identif the behavior and ke points for the graph. Since b = is greater than one, we know the function is increasing. The left tail of the graph will approach the vertical asmptote = 0, and the right tail will increase slowl without bound. The -intercept is (, 0). The ke point (, ) is on the graph. We draw and label the asmptote, plot and label the points, and draw a smooth curve through the points (see Figure ).

State the domain, range, and asmptote. graphing Transformations of logarithmic Functions As we mentioned in the beginning of the section, transformations of logarithmic graphs behave similarl to those of other parent functions. We can shift, stretch, compress, and reflect the parent function = log b () without loss of shape. Graphing a Horizontal Shift of f ( ) = log b ( ) When a constant c is added to the input of the parent function f () = log b (), the result is a horizontal shift c units in the opposite direction of the sign on c. To visualize horizontal shifts, we can observe the general graph of the parent function f () = log b () and for c > 0 alongside the shift left, g( ) = log b ( + c), and the shift right, h() = log b ( c). See Figure 6. Shift left g () = log b ( + c) = c = 0 g() = log b ( + c) = 0 Shift right h() = log b ( c) = c f () = log b () (b c, ) f () = log b () (b, ) (, 0) ( c, 0) (b, ) (b + c, ) (, 0) ( + c, 0) h() = log b ( c) The asmptote changes to = c. The domain changes to ( c, ). The range remains (, ). Figure 6 The asmptote changes to = c. The domain changes to (c, ). The range remains (, ). horizontal shifts of the parent function = log b () For an constant c, the function f () = log b ( + c) shifts the parent function = log b () left c units if c > 0. shifts the parent function = log b () right c units if c < 0. has the vertical asmptote = c. has domain ( c, ). has range (, ).

State the domain, range, and asmptote. Solution Since the function is f () = log ( ), we notice + ( ) =. Thus c =, so c < 0. This means we will shift the function f () = log () right units. The vertical asmptote is = ( ) or =. Consider the three ke points from the parent function, _,, (, 0), and (, ). The new coordinates are found b adding to the coordinates.

Graphing a Vertical Shift of = log b ( ) When a constant d is added to the parent function f () = log b (), the result is a vertical shift d units in the direction of the sign on d. To visualize vertical shifts, we can observe the general graph of the parent function f () = log b () alongside the shift up, g () = log b () + d and the shift down, h() = log b () d. See Figure 8.

Graphing Stretches and Compressions of = log b ( ) When the parent function f () = log b () is multiplied b a constant a > 0, the result is a vertical stretch or compression of the original graph.
