Find the domain, x-intercept and vertical asymptote of each logarithmic function. Graph each function.

Note: Do 42 and 44 as a guide for me to do the rest.

Domain:
The domain of a function is the set of input or argument values for which the function is real and defined
since you have a logarithmic function, domain is

x element of R: x>0

Interval Notation:
(0,infinity )

Range:
-infinity < f(x) <infinity
Interval Notation:
(-infinity ,infinity ight)


x -intercept:
MSP29206e01ic0hig05f400001g4705acghi4f75c
=> x=1

(1,0)

Asymptotes: Vertical, x=0, Horizontal: none

domain:
x element of R: x>3
Interval Notation:
(3,infinity )

Range:
-infinity < h(x) <infinity
Interval Notation:
(-infinity ,infinity ight)

x-intercept:
MSP21241gfi8diade9299e10000206i8fg8h0gc7687
only if x=4

(4,0)

Asymptotes: Vertical, x=3, Horizontal: none

1. Explain how you found the x-intercept.

2. Are you saying the domain is the argument of log function set to be > 0?

3. How did you get the range?

4. Graphing the function is the best way to determine the vertical asymptote. Yes?
 
1. to find x-intercept, set f(x) to zero

log (6 ,x )=0.

2.
then write as exponential
x=6^0=> x=1
log(4,x-3)=0=>x-3=4^0 =>x-3=1 =>x=1+3=>x=4

3.
Whatever base we have for the logarithmic function, the range is always "All Real Numbers"
