Step 1:
\The function is .
Power rule of logarithms: .
Rewrite the function using above formula.
\\
Domain of logarithm function is defined for
or
in interval notation.
Therefore domain set of is
.
Range of the logarithm function is defined as
.
Therefore range set of is
.
Vertical asymptote of the logarithmic function is
.
Therefore Vertical asymptote of is
or
-axis.
Step 2:
\Find the inverse function of .
Consider .
The inverse function is defined implicitly by the equation .
Solve for .
Common logarithm function: if and only if
.
If , then
.
Therefore the inverse function is .
Find the domain and range of .
Domain set of is
and range set is
.
Here , so the domain set of
is
and
Range set of is
.
Step 3:
\Graph:
\Graph the function .
\
Graph the inverse function
.
Solution:
\Domain set of is
.
Range set of is
.
Inverse function of is
.
Domain set of is
.
Range set of is
.
