The reflection of the exponential function on the axis #y=x#

Explanation:

Logarithms are the inverse of an exponential function, so for #y=a^x#, the log function would be #y=log_ax#.

So, the log function tell you what power #a# has to be raised to, to get #x#.

Graph of #lnx#:
graph{ln(x) [-10, 10, -5, 5]}

Graph of #e^x#:
graph{e^x [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
