Week 4: Exponentials and Logarithms
This week’s topic enlarges on the concept of powers and indices and extends it to the constant, e, and to logarithms.
See how many of the questions you can do (you will need a calculator for some of these). If you have not done much on this topic previously then try working through the HELM workbook. Remember help will be available from the MLSC once you start your course at Loughborough.
