Our mission is to provide a free world-class education to anyone anywhere. Given an equation of the form solve for Divide both sides of the equation by. There will be no way to convert the bases to being the same such as the conversion of 4 and 8 into powers of 2In solving these more-complicated equations you will have to use logarithms.
Solve differential equations that describe exponential relationships.
An exponential equation is one in which a variable occurs in the exponent for example. In this section we will look at solving exponential equations and we will look at solving logarithm equations in the next section. The graph of an exponential model with positive a is given below. One common type of exponential equations are those with base This constant occurs again and again in nature in mathematics in science in engineering and in finance.
