Common Logarithms


The logarithm with base 10 is called
the common logarithm and is denoted
by omitting the base: logx = log10x. So
y = logx if and only if x = 10y
Applying the basic properties of logs
1. log(10) = 1
2. log(1) = 0
3. log(10x) = x
4. 10logx = x

Common Log Convention
 By this Mathematics CONVENTION the
abbreviation log, with no base written, is
understood to mean logarithm base 10,
or a common logarithm. Thus,
log21 = log1021
 On most calculators, the key for
LOG
common logarithms is marked

Example  Calc Common Log

Use a calculator to approximate each
common logarithm. Round to the
nearest thousandth if necessary.
a. log(456)
b. log(0.00257)

Solution by Calculator LOG key
•
log(456) ≈ 2.659 → 102.659 = 456
•
log(0.00257) ≈ −2.5901 → 10−2.5901 =
0.00257

• d ≡ the intensity in decibels,
• I ≡ the intensity watts per unit of area
• I0 ≡ the faintest audible sound to the
average human ear, which is 10−12 watts
per square meter (1x10−12 W/m2).

Example  Total Recall
 The function P = 95 – 99∙logx models
the percent, P, of students who recall
the important features of a classroom
lecture over time, where x is the number
of days that have elapsed since the
lecture was given.
 What percent of the students recall the
important features of a lecture 8 days
after it was given?

Example  Total Recall
 Solution:
Evaluate P = 95 – 99logx when x = 8.
P = 95 – 99log(8)
P = 95 – 99(0.903) [using a calculator]
P = 95 – 89
P=6
 Thus about 6% of the students
remember the important features of a
lecture 8 days after it is given

Natural Logarithms
 Logarithms to the base “e” are called
natural logarithms, or Napierian
logarithms, in honor of John Napier,
who first “discovered” logarithms.
 The abbreviation “ln” is generally used
with natural logarithms. Thus,
ln 21 = loge 21.
 On most calculators, the key for natural
logarithms is marked LN

Natural Logarithms


The logarithm with base e is called the
natural logarithm and is denoted by ln
x. That is, ln x = loge x. So
y = lnx if and only if x = ey
Applying the basic properties of logs
1. ln(e) = 1
2. ln(1) = 0
3. ln(ex) = x
4. elnx = x

compounded continuously, how long will
it take a deposit of $25,000 to produce
an account balance of $100,000?
 Familiarize
In the Compounding Eqn replace P with
25,000, r with 0.08, A with $100,000,
and then simplify.
