+577 Yes I have been "dead" for a while, I am back! I was learning about logarithms and on the test it threw this equation at me.
\(y=-\ln x +2\)
What on earth is LN? Or is it 1n? Why didn't my book tell me about this?
On a side note, what is the proper way to pronounce logarithm?
+37146 ln is the 'natural logarithm' based on e LOG is the base 10 logarithm.
+577 okay...but what is its equation as a logarithm?
nevermind im dumb its log base e x
+37146 Not sure what you are asking, but:
-y = -ln x + 2
2+y = ln x
e^(2+y) = e^(ln x)
e^(2+y) = x
+577 you are amazing and my book is lazy lol
thanks for telling me what ln is
also do you know what the proper way to pronounce logarithm is? i pronounce it log like in...well..log, but my friends say loge like in go,boat, whatever...
+37146 I've never heard it pronounced any other way than log rhymes with 'bog' 'dog' 'hog' 'cog' 'fog' etc......
+129852 This is not an equation.....it's a graph of the natural log function reflected about the x axis and shifted up 2 units
Here's a graph of the parent function and this one :

+577 Well I wasn't really looking for a solution, I just wanted to know what LN was...thanks anyway!
