• Suppose you have $100 in an account paying 5% compounded annually.– Create an equation for the balance B after t years– When will the account be worth $200?

• In the previous example we needed to solve for the input
• Since exponential functions are 1-1, they have an inverse
• The inverse of an exponential function is called the common logarithm function or the log function
• In other words

• Evaluate the following:
