    MHB Solving a Logarithmic Curve: Tangent Lines & Approximations

    Re: y=Inx okay so i get that when x= 1, ln(x) crosses the x axis Therefore ln(1) = 0 right? Therefore ln(1+d) = d - for d small enough (since the function slowly increases from zero as x increases from 1) so that's my understanding of the question, etc? but from that i don't get how do find...

    MHB Solving a Logarithmic Curve: Tangent Lines & Approximations

    guys I need loads of help for this question(s)? what do i even do ?!? Sketch the curve y = lnx and find the tangent line to this curve at the point where the curve crosses the x-axis. Deduce that, for small delta, ln(1 + δ) ≈ δ . - I know what the y = Inx curve looks like but what do i do...

    MHB Interpreting Constant A & Deriving k in Air Pressure Decay

    hey guys! I'm really confused as to what this question is trying to ask me! can someone help me out :) Air pressure decays approximately exponentially at about 0.4 per cent for each rise of 30 metres above sea level. If we let p = p(h) denote air pressure (measured in some appropriate units) at...
