A baseball player has been improving every season since making it to the big leagues. Below is a table of the runs he has scored. His manager wants to try to determine when he will score 243 runs. Explain how to create the exponential function that represents his run-scoring abilities. Then explain how to convert this function into a logarithmic function and why this can help the manager answer his question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the question asks in which season he will hit 243 runs

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the equation for this is \[243 = 3^{x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you write it in logarithm form

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\log_3(243)\] ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct the answer is 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3*3=9 *3 = 27 *3=81 *3=243

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and this will help the manager determine how many seasons (x) until he scores 243

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is 5 seasons?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

easy enough. thank you, can you help with another?
