Topics:
• Transformations of the basic graph 
• Using the properties of logarithms to simplify expressions containing logarithms (Example 14.2)
• Using the properties of logarithms to expand a logarithm (Example 14.3)
• Solving exponential equations when both sides can be written as a power of the same base (Example 14.5(a-d))
• Solving exponential equations using logarithms (We generally use the natural logarithm for this: see Example 14.6)
Be very careful, when working with logarithms, that you use the properties in the list I handed out. A common error is to think that a quotient of logarithms can be simplified: it cannot. So, for example, there is no way to simplify log(20)/log(4), and it certainly is not equal to log(5).
Homework:
• Study the definition and the properties of logarithms: review the Examples, to see how the properties are being used. You should have the list of properties in front of you as you work the problems.
• Do the assigned parts of Exercise 13.6, and the assigned problems in Session 14, except SKIP Exercise 14.4 for now.
• Do the WeBWorK: start early! Due by tomorrow 11 PM. (Fixed link!)(Fixed a second time – it keeps changing from what I put in it, I don’t know why. The direct link is

• Do the Warm-Up – also due by tomorrow 11 PM.
