Grade 12 Mathematics Questions Exam With Detailed Answers.

Definition of logarithms - correct answer The logarithm of a number is the value to which the base must be raised to give that number i.e. the exponent. From the first example of the activity log2(4) means the power of 2 that will give 4. As 22=4 Laws of logarithms - correct answer Just as for the exponents, logarithms have some laws which make working with them easier. These laws are based on the exponential laws and are summarized first and then explained in detail. Arithmetic sequence - correct answer An arithmetic (or linear) sequence is a sequence of numbers in which each new term is calculated by adding a constant value to the previous term Geometric sequences - correct answer A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers in which each new term (except for the first term) is calculated by multiplying the previous term by a constant value. Series - correct answer In this section we simply work on the concept of adding up the numbers belonging to arithmetic and geometric sequences. We call the sum of any sequence of numbers a series.
