davidashworth7: [13] Use logs to derive the linear form (i.e. an equation that would allow you to plot a straight-line
graph) of the following equations:
n = K M^a
I = Io.e^-kt
m = k [c]^1/n
These are some practice questions I was given and for the life of me can't tell what it wants me to do with them any help? dont need to answer them just a general idea of how to tackle them?
I really don't know what your teacher is after. Do you know which of the pronumerals are constants and which are variables? (This makes a big difference to any possible solution)
If the second one is meant to be
l = ln [e
-kt]
then this would simplify to
l = (-kt) ln e
l = -kt
If k is a constant and t and l are variables then this is a linear equation.
If you have more information please post it.
OR
If you get the answers please post them so i can see what your teacher is talking about.

I am sorry that I can't be more helpful.
There are a couple of sites that I often refer people to regarding logs, maybe you will find one of them helpful.
