Graph f(x) = ln x
Graph f(x) = ex
What do you notice about these 2 functions and their relationship?
Graph f(x) = ln x
Graph f(x) = ex
What do you notice about these 2 functions and their relationship?
They appear to be reciprocals of each other and thus inverses.
The inverse of the natural logarithmic function f(x) = ln x is called the natural exponential function and is denoted by f -1(x) = ex
i.e. y = ex if and only if x = ln yAnd
ln(ex) = x and eln x = x (inverse property)
Examples 7 = ex + 1
ln 7 = ln(ex +
1) ln 7 = x + 1ln 7 - 1 = x .946 ≈x
natual log both sides andapply inverse property
Examples ln(2x - 3) =
5eln(2x - 3) = e5
2x - 3 = e5
x = ½(e5 + 3)x ≈ 75.707
exponential both sides andapply inverse property
Caution!cannot do if multiple pieces on each side of =
ln(5x + 1) + ln x = ln 4
(5x + 1) + x = 4
Incorrect Correctln(5x + 1)x = ln 4 (5x + 1)x = 4
Operations and Properties
eaeb = ea + b
ea = ea - b
eb 1. Domain (-∞, ∞)2. Range (0, ∞)3. continuous, increasing, 1 to 14. concave up5. lim ex = 0 lim ex = ∞
x -∞ x ∞
Derivatives
(the natural exponential function is the only function besides the zero function that is its own derivative)
Examples
u = 2x -1du = 2
u = -3x-1
du = (-3)(-1)x-2
How Fast Does a Flu Spread?
The spread of a flu in a certain school is modeled by the equation P(t) = 100 1 + e3 - t
where P(t) = total number of students infected t days after the flu was first noticed. Many of them may already be well again at time t.
Estimate the initial number of students infected with the flu

at t = 3
100e0 = 25(1 + e0)2
