Lesson 4.
5 Logarithmic and Exponential Equations
Solve each equation. Express irrational solutions in exact form and as a decimal rounded to 3 decimal places.
A. Strategy: Rewrite the problem using the same base on both sides. Video tutorials
B. Strategy: Take the natural log of both sides to get rid of ex Video tutorials
C. Strategy: Raise both sides with ex to get rid of ln. Video tutorials
