Documenting Logarithmic Graph Features for a Data Dashboard

As a technical writer for a software development team, you are tasked with creating documentation for a new data dashboard. One of the dashboard's predictive models uses the logarithmic function y=logaxy = \log_a x, specifically where the base aa is strictly between 0 and 1 (0<a<1{}0 < a < 1). To ensure the documentation is accurate for the developers using this model, write a brief summary recalling the key visual and mathematical properties of this graph. In your summary, be sure to state the general shape or direction of the curve, identify its vertical asymptote, and list the three specific anchor points the graph will always pass through.
