Outcomes
In this lesson you will
- apply the laws of logarithms to solve more complex exponential equations
- learn that these laws can be used to determine the equation of exponential functions of the form
By the end of this section students will be able to:
- demonstrate an understanding of the properties of logarithms and apply them
- solve problems involving exponential and logarithmic equations
- solve exponential and logarithmic equations
- demonstrate an understanding of the relationships that exist between arithmetic operations and the operations used when solving equations
- apply real number exponents in expressions and equations
- model real-world phenomena using exponential functions
Prerequisites
To be successful in this lesson, it would be helpful to know the following:
- determine the equation of exponential functions without using technology
- understand the meaning of zero, negative and rational exponents
- convert from logarithmic to exponential forma and vice versa
