SV #4 Unit I Concept 2: Graphing logarithmic functions

In this video you will learn how to graph the logarithmic function. You will be using the asymptote, x intercept, y intercept, key points to graph your graph. You will also need to find the domain and the range of the graph One thing that you need to be careful about is the domain. We hav a restriction on the x value so the domain should be (number, infinity). Also you need to use the change of base formula if you cannot solve for it.

SP #3: Unit I Concept Concept 1: GraphingExponential functions

***Correction: Range (3, infinity)
In this unit you will be able graph the exponential functions and identify all parts of graph such as x intercepts, y intercepts, asymptote, domain and range. You will use these to graph your logarithmic functions.

One thing that you need to be careful about is H as it is the opposite when you identify it. Another thing you need to be careful about is the range. It depend on your asymptote. If the graph fall below the asymptote, you write it as (-infinity, asymptote)

Student Video #3: Unit H Concept 7: Finding logs given approximations

In this concept, you will be learning how to find the logs with the given clues. First you need to find the multiple numbers that will go into that number.The number will need to match the clues given to solve for the "puzzle". Then you will need to use the product and quotient law in order to expand the clues. One thing that you need to be careful about is to list 2 other "hidden" clues. If you don't list the hidden clues, you will not be able to find the correct answers to the clues. Also you need to be careful about expanding the clues, whether to add or subtract them, depending on the problems.

SV#2: Unit G Concepts 1-7 - Finding all parts and graphing a rational function

Note: It is suppose to be 5x^2 not 5x in the long division. In the video we will be winding the slant asymptote. It is when the degree in the numerator is greator than one. To find the slant asymptote we will be using long division to solve the equation and graph the line. Also we will be finding the vertical asymptote, holes, domain, x intercept, and y intercepts to graph the slant asymptote. Because we have slant asymptote there will be no horizontal asymptote. One thing that you need to be careful with is when you were solving with long division, you need to look out for the signs when subtracting. Also you should be careful when solving for the x and y intercepts because it can lead you to a different point and mess up the graph.
