Exponential and Logarithmic Functions
Which expression determines whether there exists an infinite limit approaching positive infinity for ?
Evaluate only
Evaluate both without considering directionality since logarithms behave consistently towards infinities.
Evaluate only since will approach infinity unilaterally on one side only.
Evaluate both and separately.
Which equation represents a logarithmic decay model?
y = x^2 - x + 1
y = \log_{10}(x^2)
y = \log_{10}\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)
y = e^x
If the population of a certain species of fish decreases by 12% each year, which function type best models this situation?
Exponential decay function
Quadratic function
Logarithmic function
Linear function
When modeling data with a logarithmic trend, which equation would you use to predict the value of y when x is increased tenfold?
If the population of a certain bacteria culture doubles every 3 hours, which logarithmic function represents the time in hours it takes for the population to reach if the initial population is ?
t = 3\log_{10}\left(\frac{P}{P_0}\right)
t = \frac{1}{3}\log_{2}\left(\frac{P}{P_0}\right)
t = \log_{2}\left(\frac{3P}{P_0}\right)
t = 3\log_{2}\left(\frac{P}{P_0}\right)

In modeling population growth using an exponential function , with being initial population and being growth rate, what logarithmic equation would you use to find how long it takes for population to double?
t=\frac{\ln(2)}{r}
t=\frac{\ln(P_0/2)}{r}
t=\frac{\ln(P_0)}{r}
t=\frac{r}{\ln(2)}
What does it mean if a function is continuous at a point x = c?
The function has an asymptote at x = c
The function reaches its maximum value at x = c
The derivative of the function does not exist at x = c
The function has no breaks, jumps, or holes at x = c
