PLEASE HELP:

There are many real-world situations that exhibit exponential and logarithmic functions.

Describe two real world scenarios, one exponential and one logarithmic. Do not identify yet whether your scenarios are logarithmic or exponential.

In chemistry, the acidity of a solution is measured using the pH scale 0-14. A solution that's pH 3 is 10 times more acidic than a solution that's pH 4. The lower the pH the more acidic something is. The higher the pH the more basic something is. Water is generally around pH 7 (calculated using logarithms)

Also, in seismology. Vibrations are picked up and plotted on a seismograph. The strength, or magnitude, of an earthquake is measured using the Richter scale. The Richter scale is numbered 0-10.

So an earthquake thats a 5 on the Ricter scale is 10 times stronger/bigger than one that's a 3. (Logarithms)

Biologists that calculate population growth, whether animal, human or microorganism. When organisms create more organisms in a population they grow exponentially. (exponential functions) 

Also, a lot of financial things like compound interest on a saving account or loan. (exponential function) 

hope this helps
