Exponential Equations Using Logs

Recall from Level One that logarithms and exponentials are inverse operations. In this segment, you will learn how to use this relationship to solve exponential equations using logarithms.

Watch the video below to discover how to use logs in solving more complex exponential equations. Please have paper and pencil on hand to take notes during the video.


After you've finished with the video, please complete the problems found in the document below. You can also download the document for offline viewing or printing.

Please submit the completed assignment to your teacher for evaluation and feedback.
