Introduction

• Objective: In this presentation, we will explore how to solve


exponential and logarithmic equations.
• We will cover methods to simplify, analyze, and apply these
equations in both algebraic and real-world contexts.
• Engagement: Consider the growth of populations or the
decay of radioactive substances.
• Both processes can be modeled using exponential equations,
while logarithmic equations help us understand phenomena
like sound intensity and pH levels.
Learning Goals & Success Criteria
• Learning Goal: Solve exponential and logarithmic equations
algebraically.
• Success Criteria:
• 1. Simplify and solve exponential equations using common
bases or logarithms.
• 2. Solve logarithmic equations algebraically.
Solving Exponential Equations
• Example: Solve 2^x = 16
• Step 1: Rewrite 16 as 2^4 since 16 = 2^4.
• Step 2: Set exponents equal: x = 4.
• Key Point: Rewrite both sides with the same base if possible.
• Pitfalls: Not recognizing the correct base or failing to simplify
properly.
Solving Logarithmic Equations
• Example: Solve log(x) = 3
• Step 1: Rewrite in exponential form: x = 10^3.
• Step 2: Solve: x = 1000.
• Key Point: Use the property log_b(a) = c implies a = b^c.
• Pitfalls: Incorrect use of logarithmic properties.
Real-World Applications
• Exponential Equations: Population growth, compound
interest.
• Logarithmic Equations: Earthquake intensity (Richter scale),
sound intensity (decibels).
• Key takeaway: These equations help us understand real-life
phenomena.
Conclusion
• Summary: We covered how to solve exponential and
logarithmic equations.
• Importance: These methods are essential in algebra and
solving real-world problems.
