Consider the following worksheet (perhaps it is better to download the worksheet and execute since the contents below aren't showing the commands used to plot the last two plots).

NULL

T = log(R)/(a+b*log(R))^2

plot(log(R)/(-1.16+.675*log(R))^2, R = 1000 .. 30000)

  

NULL

10^log[10](T) = log(R)/(a+b*log(R))^2

NULL

log[10](T) = log[10](log(R)/(a+b*log(R))^2)

NULL

w = log[10](z/(b*z+a)^2)

w = ln(z/(b*z+a)^2)/ln(10)

 (1)

NULL

plot(log[10](z/(-1.16+.675*z)^2), z = log(1000) .. log(30000))

  

NULL

``

NULL

plots:-loglogplot(log(R)/(-1.16+.675*log(R))^2, R = 1000 .. 30000)

  

NULL

 

My question is about making a loglog plot of the equation

for R between 1000 and 30000.

 

The second to last plot is of w as a function of z, as in the last equation below

and the plot command is (where I have subbed in a=-1.16 and b=0.675)

In the second to last plot, of course we have negative values of w. If we were to consider the underlying values of T, they would never be negative of course.

The last plot is the command

I think this last plot is what I want (though I am not sure because I am not totally sure what plots:-loglogplot is doing).

 

My question is how to obtain this loglog plot manually. That is, I want the axes to show values of R on the x axis and T on the y axis (just like a usual loglog plot shows).

In other words, how to go from the second to last plot to the same plot but showing the corresponding R and T values instead of z and w.
