Example Question #9 : Natural Log
Determine the value of:
In order to simplify this expression, use the following natural log rule.
The natural log has a default base of . This means that:
The answer is:
Example Question #4 : Natural Log
Simplify:
According to log properties, the coefficient in front of the natural log can be rewritten as the exponent raised by the quantity inside the log.
Notice that natural log has a base of . This means that raising the log by base will eliminate both the and the natural log.
The terms become:
Simplify the power.
The answer is:
Example Question #11 : Natural Log
Evaluate:
The natural log has a default base of . Natural log to of an exponential raised to the power will be just the power. The natural log and will be eliminated.
Rewrite the expression.
The answer is:
Example Question #11 : Natural Log
Determine the value of:
The natural log has a default base of .
According to the rule of logs, we can use:
The coefficient in front of the natural log can be transferred as the power of the exponent.
The natural log and base e will cancel, leaving just the exponent.
The answer is:
Example Question #11 : Understanding Logarithms
Solve:
The natural log has a default base of . This means that the natural log of to the certain power will be just the power itself.
The expression becomes:
The answer is:
Example Question #14 : Natural Log
Simplify:
Use the log properties to separate each term. When the terms inside are multiplied, the logs can be added.
Rewrite the expression.
The exponent, 7 can be dropped as the coefficient in front of the natural log. Natural log of the exponential is equal to one since the natural log has a default base of .
The answer is:
Example Question #15 : Natural Log
The equation represents Newton's Law of Cooling. Solve for .
Use base and raise both the left and right sides as the powers of . This will eliminate the natural log term.
The equation becomes:
Multiply the quantity on both sides.
Add on both sides.
The equation becomes:
To isolate , divide on both sides.
The answer is:
Example Question #16 : Natural Log
Evaluate:
The natural log has a default base of .
Use the log property:
We can cancel the base and the log of the base.
The expression becomes:
The answer is:
Example Question #11 : Understanding Logarithms
Simplify:
Notice that the terms inside the log are added, with a common factor of . Pull out a common factor.
Notice that these two terms inside the log are multiplied. We can split the log into two terms.
The value of the first term is equal to one, since natural log has a default base of . We can use the property to eliminate the log and the term, which will cancel leaving just the power of one.
The expression becomes:
We cannot use the property of logs to simplify the second term.
The answer is:
Example Question #18 : Natural Log
Solve the expression:
In order to eliminate the natural log and solve for x, we will need to exponential both sides because is the base of natural log.
The left side will be reduced to just the inner quantity of the natural log.
Subtract from both sides of the equation.
Divide by two on both sides.
The answer is:
