One question about logarithms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in an exponential expression like this: \[2^{x}\]=m 2 is the base and x is the exponent. If i transform it to a logarithm, we have that \[\log _{2}(m)=x\] if 2 is called the base again, how do i call m?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We call it " log m to the base 2 is equal to x "

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so m doesnt have an specific name. Like in exponential notation (base, index).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You can call it the domain of the logarithmic function.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahhh ok. That was a really good answer!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My pleasure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its like when you work with trigonometric function, do you provide any name to the x in sin(x)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You just call it "x is the domain of the trigonometric sine function "

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Similarly things go here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool. I asked three of my teachers about it. And non of them gave me an answer like that. Thanks dude

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you are welcome

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you Mr Luis Villamagua (you know for what)
