Exponential and Log functions are inverses of each other. That is the most important thing to remember about them together. We have been studying functions where x is the base and the exponent can be positive, negative or fractional. Now we will study functions where the base is a number and the exponent is the variable.
Note: I am not following the order or the emphasis of the book so we will have handouts everyday but this material is covered in Chapter 6.
