What is $\log_{10} 0.01$?
Answer: −2
Why: Every number between 0 and 1 has a negative log in base 10, because it takes a negative power: $10^{-2} = \frac{1}{100}$.

Across which line is $\ln x$ the mirror image of $e^x$?
Answer: $y = x$
Why: Inverse functions swap coordinates, so the point (0, 1) on $e^x$ becomes (1, 0) on $\ln x$, its mirror image across $y = x$.

How often is 1 the first digit in data such as river lengths?
Answer: About 30%
Why: Benford's law gives digit d a share of $\log_{10}(1 + \frac{1}{d})$, so 1 leads 30.1% of the time and 9 only 4.6%.
