    Logarithmic Power
AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on converting the logarithmic equation ln(y) = 3 + 0.2x into the exponential form y = pq^x. Participants clarify that y can be expressed as y = exp(3 + 0.2x), which simplifies to y = exp(3) * exp(0.2x). The correct interpretation leads to y being represented as a product of a constant and an exponential function. There is some confusion about the final form, but the key takeaway is the transformation of the logarithmic equation into an exponential format. This conversion is essential for understanding the relationship between y and x in the specified equation.

how can the relationship between y and x in the form Iny = 3+0.2x, be written in the form y = pq^x.

I tried many ways, but can't find the righ format, someone help please?

1) ln(a)=x means a=exp(x)
2) exp(x+y)=exp(x)*exp(y)
 
yes, but that doesn't help me? :confused:
 
1)lny=3+0.2x => y=exp(3+0.2x). Now you do the 2).
 
Oh right. Thank you. I got y=exp(3) * exp (0.2x).
That becomes y = exp(3+0.6) * exp(x)
 
Sorry that is wrong
 
y = exp(0.2)x + exp(3). is that right?
 
sorry, i forgot this one:)
3)a^(b*c)=(a^b)^c
