Graphing Logarithmic Functions Teacher Resources

Does the number of calories you eat affect the total time you sleep? Young mathematicians tackle this question by collecting their own data and making comparisons between others in the class through building scatter plots and regression...

Young mathematicians solve problems of logs and natural logs. They graph functions of natural logs on the TI and relate integrals to natural logarithms.

Students solve equations by graphing. In this algebra lesson plan, students differentiate between functions and relations. They use the TI to graph their equation and analyze the graph.

Students investigate, describe, and predict the effects of parameter changes on the graphs of exponential functions; describe limitations on the domains and ranges of these functions; and examine asymptotic behavior.

Back to the basics: learning how to add numbers. The 17th installment of a 35-part module first reviews addition techniques for rational numbers, such as graphical methods (number line) and numerical methods (standard algorithm). It goes...

Thank goodness we have calculators to compute logarithms. Pupils use calculators to create logarithmic tables to estimate values and use these tables to discover patterns (properties). The second half of the instructional activity has...

Extend the concept of exponents to irrational numbers. In the fifth installment of a 35-part module, individuals use calculators and rational exponents to estimate the values of 2^(sqrt(2)) and 2^(pi). The final goal is to show that the...

Won't the other properties be sad to learn that they're not the most important? The 11th installment of a 35-part module is essentially a continuation of the previous lesson, using logarithm tables to develop properties. Scholars...

Differentiate between calculus concepts. The beginning of a helpful calculus resource begins with a short review of functions and moves right into limits to define derivatives. The six-chapter resource continues with applications of...

Young mathematicians look for patterns in inverse functions as they relate to the original functions. The comprehensive lesson plan emphasizes vocabulary throughout as well as algebraic and graphical characteristics of the inverse...

Not all linear functions are linear transformations — show your class the difference. The first lesson in a unit on linear transformations and complex numbers that spans 32 segments introduces the concept of linear transformations and...

Learners explore reflection of polygons on a coordinate plane. They examine the relationships that exist between corresponding points and sides. 

In this college level Pre-Calculus worksheet, students solve problems involving exponential functions.  Students determine the domain, range, y-intercept and asymptotes of exponential functions. The three page worksheet contains...

Students engage in an interactive Internet lesson covering the reasons and results of earthquakes. After reading eyewitness accounts and viewing animations, they use seismograms to measure and locate the epicenters. In an ongoing study,...

This lesson explains what exponential and logarithmic functions are. Includes graphs and links to more information.

Models an example of how to graph a logarithmic function. [9:10]

Graph logarithmic functions and find the appropriate graph given the function. Students receive immediate feedback and have the opportunity to try questions repeatedly, watch a video or receive hints.

This lesson details graphing logarithmic functions. The lesson explains the relationship between the graph of the logarithm and its inverse. The site gives examples of logarithmic graphs of base 2, 3, and e. Shifts in logarithmic graphs...

Detailed math tutorial introduces logarithm functions giving the basic properties and graphs. Also, discusses how to evaluate some basic logarithms including the use of the change of base formula, the common logarithm, log(x), and the...
