  • 👉 Learn all about the properties of logarithms. The logarithm of a number say a to the base of another number say b is a number say n which when raised as a power of b gives a. (i.e. log [base b] (a) = n means that b^n = a). The logarithm of a negative number is not defined. (i.e. it is not possible to find the logarithm of a negative number). There are some properties of logarithm which are helpful in simplifying and evaluating logarithm problems. Knowledge of these properties is a valuable tool in solving logarithm problems.

    • @davecullins1606
      @davecullins1606 3 года назад +1

      The only case I know of is if you're doing statistical research and you have populations from huge countries in your data. Then instead of saying that the population is 50.000.000, you just instead say "ln (50.000.000)" and write whatever that number is instead.
      Supposedly it makes it easier to see percentual changes in the population when the population grows exponentially, but I've no idea how that works. All I see is that the number "50.000.000" suddenly is "17.7" and "6.000.000" becomes "15.6".

    I think is not so much that we need to learn it in school ( as we do) it’s all involve in the time that it requires to practice and understand the concepts, half of the answers in everything in math , it’s understanding what we are reading.
    However Videos it’s just a form of investing the time into what we need to learn . As if we were or had more time in class to practice.
    Tutoring it’s always available for free at school most of the time.

    My teacher went from limits to higher derivatives in just 2 weeks. I'm super stressed right now. Can someone send me virtual hugs please

    Thanks, Mr McLogan! You made me understand this like it was a piece of cake. Perfect!
    PS: I am actually in 9th grade, no kidding, NGL!

    I have never seen a video about natural logarithms where they explain why it has that name. Nor does any textbook I have read explain why it has that name.
    They just assume. Just like this video assumes that the students already understand all of the principles and formulas he mentioned. This isn't a tutorial; it's a review. He doesn't actually "teach" the viewer anything; he assumes they already understand it, like 90% of math teachers; which is why students who aren't already math students are automatically locked out of learning.

    ln x = ln y
    Which gives
    X=Y
    But
    ln x = ln y=X=Y which is wrong dont equate two equations
