Logarithm
➢ If a is positive other than 1, x is a 0<a<1 Y
rational no 𝑎 𝑥 = 𝑁.
log 𝑎 𝑎 𝑥 = log 𝑎 𝑁 ⟹ 𝑥 = log 𝑎 𝑁
𝑓(𝑥) = log 𝑎 𝑥 is valid if X
𝑥 > 0 and 𝑎 > 0 but 𝑎 ≠ 1
1. log 𝑎 𝑎 = 1
2. log 𝑎 (𝑚𝑛) = log 𝑎 𝑚 + log 𝑎 𝑛
3. log 𝑎 𝑚𝑛𝑝 = log 𝑎 𝑚 + log 𝑎 𝑛 + log 𝑎 𝑝

log 𝑎 𝑚 = 𝑛 log 𝑎 𝑚 Important results
6. log 𝑎 1 = 0
log 𝑏 1. |𝑥| < 𝑎 ⟹ −𝑎 < 𝑥 < 𝑎 ie, 𝑥𝜖(−𝑎, 𝑎)
7. log 𝑎 𝑏 = log 𝑎 2. |𝑥| ≤ 𝑎 ⟹ −𝑎 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 𝑎 ie, 𝑥𝜖[−𝑎, 𝑎]
8. log 𝑎 𝑏 = log

𝑏 = 𝑝
log 𝑎 𝑏 4. |𝑥| ≥ 𝑎 ⟹ 𝑥 ≥ 𝑎 or 𝑥 ≤ −𝑎 ie,
10. 𝑎log𝑎 𝑓(𝑥)
= 𝑓(𝑥) 𝑥𝜖(−∞, 𝑎] ∪ [𝑎, ∞)
11. 𝑥 log𝑎 𝑦
= 𝑦 log𝑎 𝑥 If 𝑎, 𝑏 > 0, 𝑐𝜖𝑅 then
5. 𝑎 < |𝑥| < 𝑏 ⟹ 𝑥𝜖(−𝑏, −𝑎) ∪ (𝑎, 𝑏)
a. If log 𝑎 𝑥 > 𝑦 6. 𝑎 ≤ 𝑥 ≤ 𝑏 ⟹ 𝑥𝜖[−𝑏, −𝑎] ∪ [𝑎, 𝑏]
If 𝑎 > 1 then 𝑥 > 𝑎 𝑦 7. 𝑎 < |𝑥 − 𝑐| < 𝑏 ⟹ 𝑥𝜖(−𝑏 + 𝑐, −𝑎 + 𝑐) ∪
(𝑎 + 𝑐, 𝑏 + 𝑐)
If 0 < 𝑎 < 1 then 𝑥 < 𝑎 𝑦
Question:
b. If 𝑥 > 𝑦
1. 1 ≤ |𝑥 − 2| ≤ 3 then 𝑥 belongs to
If 𝑎 > 1 log 𝑎 𝑥 > log 𝑎 𝑦
(a) [−1,5] (b) [3,5]
If 0 < 𝑎 < 1 log 𝑎 𝑥 < log 𝑎 𝑦
(c) [−1,1] (d) [−1,1] ∪ [3,5]
