The Exponential and Logarithmic Functions,ions are useful for investigating problems associated with economic growth and decay and mathematical problems in finance such as the compounding of interest on an investment or the depreciation of an asset. For example, if a person invests £3,000 in an investment bond for which there is a guarantee

Matrices and Determinants,l in the theory of equations. They can be used to solve systems of simultaneous linear equations. Determinants are related to matrices and are useful for determining whether or not a unique solution exists. In some cases using determinants, the solution for each unknown can be expressed explicitly i

We will say more about functions in Chapter 4. Linear equations or functions may be portrayed by a straight line on a graph. In this chapter, we introduce graphs and give a number of exa

The general form of an exponential function is given by . = ., where . > 0 and . ≠ 1. (5.1) The parameter a is known as the base of the exponential function. The independent variable x occurs as the exponent o
