PROPERTY OF EXPONENTIAL INEQUALITIES

If 𝒃 > 𝟏, then the exponential function


𝒚 = 𝒃𝒙 is increasing for all x. This
𝒙 𝒚
means that 𝒃 < 𝒃 if and only if 𝒙 < 𝒚.

If the base is greater than 1, the direction


of the inequality is retained.
PROPERTY OF EXPONENTIAL INEQUALITIES

If 𝟎 < 𝒃 < 𝟏, then the exponential function


𝒙
𝒚 = 𝒃 is decreasing for all x. This means that
𝒙 𝒚
𝒃 > 𝒃 if and only if 𝒙 < 𝒚.

If the base is greater than 0 but less than 1,


the direction of the inequality is reversed.
Examples:
Solve the inequalities:
1. 𝟑𝒙 < 𝟗𝒙−𝟐
𝟑𝒙 < 𝟑𝟐(𝒙−𝟐) The base, 3, is greater than 1
𝟑𝒙 < 𝟑𝟐𝒙−𝟒 therefore the direction of
𝒙 < 𝟐𝒙 − 𝟒 inequality is retained.
𝟒 < 𝟐𝒙 − 𝒙

𝑥 + 5 ≤ 6𝑥 The base 𝟏𝟎
isgreater than 0 but less than 1,
therefore the direction of inequality is
reversed.
Examples:
Solve the inequalities:
3. 𝟓𝒙+𝟑 ≥ 𝟐𝟓
𝟓𝒙+𝟑 ≥ 𝟓𝟐 The base, 5, is greater than 1
𝒙+𝟑≥𝟐 therefore the direction of
𝒙 ≥ 𝟐 −3 inequality is retained.
