Data from an experiment may result in a graph indicating exponential growth. This implies the formula of this growth is \(y = k{x^n}\), where \(k\) and \(n\) are constants. Using logarithms, we can ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. I help people communicate data clearly with graphs. There are two main reasons to use logarithmic scales in charts and graphs. The ...

Plot points with coordinates where \(x\) and \(y\) are equal. Three points are sufficient, but more can be plotted. Draw a line through the plotted points. If \(x\) is positive, \(y\) is negative. If ...
