Media4Math  Graphs of Logarithmic Functions

Graphing Logarithmic Functions

In this example, an increasing logarithmic function is graphed.


Review of graphs of logarithmic functions:

In this set of Math Tutorials, we graph logarithmic functions written in this form:

y = a•logb(cx + d)

In this function, the terms a, b, c, and d are constants.

Logarithmic functions are inverses of exponential functions. This means that the graph of a logarithmic function is the mirror image of the corresponding exponential function along the line y = x.

In this set of Math Tutorials, we look at the following logarithmic function graphs:

We also look at logarithmic function graphs that are increasing functions and decreasing functions.

The library of Math Tutorials is a comprehensive collection of worked-out solutions to common math problems. This overcomes a common limitation of most textbooks: the handful of worked-out examples for a given concept. We provide the full array of examples and solutions, allowing students to identify patterns among the solutions, in order to aid concept retention. We also have quizzes for many of these topics.
