    1. Exponential functions involve variables with exponents. Exponential equations set two expressions with the same base equal to each other and can be solved by equating exponents. Exponential inequalities compare expressions with the same base. 2. Examples show solving exponential equations by equating exponents: one sets the bases equal and solves for the variable. Practice problems demonstrate solving exponential equations and inequalities, such as finding x when 11x - 3 = 121 or when 53x + 8 = 252x.

    Exponential Functions

    General Mathematics
    Objectives

    ● Distinguishes between exponential


    equation, exponential function, and
    exponential inequality.
    ● Solves exponential equation and
    inequality.
    Study the Concept
    Examples:

    1. f (x) = 3x + 5

    5 x
    4. 11x - 3
    = 121
    2. g (x)= 8
    5. 53x + 8
    = 252x
    3. 5x = 25
    Examples:
    1 -x+5
    2x+7
    2. Solve for the equation 4 = 32

    Step 1: Both sides of the equation should


    have the same base.
    1 -x+5
    (22)2x+7 = 25

    (2)(2)(2x+7) = 2-5(-x+5)
    Examples:
    1 -x+5
    2x+7
    2. Solve for the equation 4 = 32

    Step 2: Equate the exponents then solve


    for the variable

    (2)(2x+7) = -5(-x+5)
    4x+14 = 5x-25
    14+25 = 5x-4x
    39 = x
    Let’s Practice: Solve for x.

    1. 11x - 3
    = 121 x = 5

    2. 53x + 8
    = 252x x = 2

    1
    5x-13 x = 2
    3. 4 = x
    8
    Let’s Practice: Solve for x.
    3x 2 1
    1. 1 < 1 x >
    3
    4 2
    2. 3x+2 ≤ 9 x ≤ 0
