Using calculator evaluate each function for the
following values of "n"
a) f(1) and g(1) b) f(10) and g(10) c) f(100) and g(100) d) f(1000) and g(1000) e) f(10000) and g(10000)
The natural exponential function f(x) = e
x
The inverse of the exponential function y = e
x
is given by y = log exBut as a natural logarithm it is written as y = ln x
