- Repeat the previous exercise to find the formula forthe APY of an account that compounds daily. Usethe results from this and the previous exercise todevelop a function I(n)for the APY of any accountthat compounds n times per year.arrow_forward#2arrow_forwardF (x) = (2x+3 ) ^ 2 (2x-5) ^ 4arrow_forward
- Logarithms with other bases can also be used as functions. We already saw that the derivative of log,o (x) is 1 . It turns out that the derivative of log, (x) is just So, for example, the derivative of a In(10) æ In(b) y = 7 log, (x) is y' %3D x · In(2) For the function f(x) = 3 log; (x): %3D f'(x) = %3D f'(7) =arrow_forward725 Differentiate function y using logarithmic differentation. (2-92)√√2+1 Hint: use logarithm on both sides eg. In and differentiate. Differentiate implicitly i.e., recall that y is a function of x. What is the algebraic expression for derivative of dependent variable with respect to independent variable in terms of x? dy dearrow_forward5. For the logarithmic function f(x) = In () (a) Find the domain of the function. (b) Find f-1, then domain and range of inverse function.arrow_forward
- Condense the logarithmic expression on the attached image.arrow_forwardMatch the logarithmic function with its graph. > > 1. f(x) = ln(x + 2) 2. f(x) = ln(2x) 3. f(x) = − ln(x + 2) -arrow_forward4. (20) Change of base rule. We can change the base of any logarithm by using the "change of base" rule: log, (a) = log: (a) log, (b) where x is any valid number for base but usually take the value of one of the commonly use bases such as e, 2, or 10. Evaluate the following logarithm expressions to verify the change of base rule. la. log2(50) = (use a calculator) 1b. log2(50): (apply change of base to a common base of e) (use a calculator) Are the two answers equal? 2a. log3(81) =, (without a calculator) 2b. log3(81) = (apply change of base to a common base of 10) (use a calculator) Are the two answers equal?arrow_forward
