  1. Solving Exponential EquationsFoM 3 Unit 3 Day 1

  2. Brainstorm! • Make a list on the board of everything you can remember about rules of exponents

  3. Super Base • Click me

  4. Exponential Equations • One way to solve exponential equations is to use the property that if 2 powers w/ the same base are equal, then their exponents are equal. • For b>0 & b≠1 if bx = by, then x=y

  5. Solve by equating exponents Since they have the same bases we can set their exponents equal to each other and solve for x. Check →

  6. Your turn

  7. Solve by equating exponents Since they do NOT have the same bases…we have to rewrite so they have common bases. Common base = 2 Distribute! Check →

  8. Your turn

  9. Solve by equating exponents Common base = 2 How can we make ½ a base of 2? Negative exponents!!! Distribute! Check →
