Question
Let the function L be defined by the following rule: L(x) is the exponent to which 2 must be raised to yield x. (For the moment, we won't concern ourselves with the domain andrange.) Then L(8) = 3, forexample, since the exponent to which 2must be raised to yield 8 is 3 (thatis, 8 = 23). Find the following outputs. Thefunction L is called a logarithmic function. Theusual notation for L(x) in this example islog2(x).L(1)
