Description
Explain the problem.
Given the MWE input file
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{0.5\textwidth}
\indent The logarithm of a particular exponent can be thought of as "undoing" the exponential. For some $a$ and $b$ where $a>0$ and $b>0$, $a^x=b$ if and only if $\log_a(b)=x$. This number $x$ is called the logarithm of $b$ to base $a$.
\indent $y=e^x$ is the inverse of $\ln y = x$. Thus, if $y=5e^{4x-1}$, $x=0.25(\ln (0.2y)+1)$.
\end{minipage}
\begin{minipage}{0.45\textwidth}
\begin{align*}
y=2^x & \leftrightarrow & \log_{2}y = x \\
y=3^x & \leftrightarrow & \log_{3}y = x \\
y = 10^x & \leftrightarrow & \log_{10}y = x \\
& & \log y = x \\
y = e^x & \leftrightarrow & \log_e y = x \\
& & \ln y = x
\end{align*}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
\end{document}
and the command pandoc -s -t native test.tex, the output generated seems to completely ignore the minipage environment:
