Graphing a Logarithm Function: A Step-by-Step Example
In this video, we’ll walk through an example of how to graph a logarithmic function, specifically y = log₄(x). We’ll use a table of values to plot key points on the graph and discuss how the logarithmic curve behaves for different bases. This quick tutorial will help you understand how to interpret and sketch the graph of a logarithmic function.
Note: There is a small mistake at 2:46—I say 32 when I should say 64.
What You Will Learn:
How to graph the logarithmic function y = log₄(x) using a table of values.
Understanding the general shape and behavior of logarithmic functions.
How to interpret and plot points on a logarithmic graph for different values of x.
Insights into the characteristics of logarithmic curves for bases greater than 1.
