1. Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Lesson 5.6

2. Solving Exponential Equations Graphically Given Graphical Solution Graph each side of the equation Use calculator to find intersection y = 0.5 y = 0.1 (10 x )

3. Solving Exponential Equations Symbolically Given Isolate the coefficient with the exponent Take log of both sides Use logarithm properties Use division x

4. Try It Out Given 3(2 x – 2 ) = 99 Part of class solve graphically Part of class solve symbolically

5. Logarithmic Equation Consider ln 4x = 1.5 Symbolic solution Raise to the power of the base Use property of logarithms Use Division

6. Logarithmic Equation Graphical solution of ln 4x = 1.5 As before graph both sides of the equation y = ln 4x y = 1.5 Use calculator to find intersection

7. Try It Out Given Part of class solve graphically Part of class solve symbolically Will they ever meet again? Now what?
