If If <B><math>10^X = Y</math></B> then <B><math>log(Y) = X</math></B>

If If <B><math>10^X = Y</math></B> then <B><math>log(Y) = X</math></B>

For example: <B><math>10^3 = 1000 => log(1000) = 3</math></B>  

For example: <B><math>10^3 = 1000 --> log(1000) = 3</math></B>  

Logarithms are used in graphs using a [[logarithmic scale]] such as the [[Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram]], these scales are mainly used to graph [[exponential]] functions that show an sharp increase beyond a specific value and would appear [[asymptotic]] on a conventional [[linear]] scale.
