Today we started class with the super correction follow up test for the first 25 minutes of class. We then jumped to (1+1/x)^x which is also called e and what happens to it when it gets very large and how neither the base or the power wins and makes the function go towards 1 or a large number. We used this to show the transformation from A=P(1+r/n)^nt to A=Pe^rt because you can substitute n/r for x and 1/x= r/n so you can substitute e for 1+r/n and get A=Pe^rt. We then went on to homework where we talked about #21 with reference to the purple math visual of turning a log into an exponential. The last thing we learned today was the big three log properties with reference to the mystery function worksheet.
1. log(a*b)=log(a) * log(b)
2. log a^n= n*log a
3. log a/b= log a - log b
These will be used in our homework tonight which is p. 243/11-45 odd, 61-67 odd.
