Gen Math Module 6 Solving Exponential Equation and Inequalitiespdf

This document discusses exponential functions and equations. It covers: 1) Solving exponential equations using properties of exponents like product, quotient, and power rules. 2) Exponential functions are one-to-one, so each input has a unique output. 3) Solving exponential inequalities by determining if the base is greater than 1 to retain the inequality direction, or between 0 and 1 to reverse it. 4) Examples of solving exponential equations and inequalities.

PROPERTY OF EXPONENTIAL INEQUALITIES
 

If , then the exponential function is


increasing for all x. This means that if
and only if .

If the base is greater than 1, the direction


of the inequality is retained.
PROPERTY OF EXPONENTIAL INEQUALITIES

If , then the exponential function is


decreasing for all x. This means that if and
only if .

If the base is greater than 0 but less than


1, the direction of the inequality is
reversed.
Examples:
Solve the inequalities:
1.
 

𝒙 𝟐(𝒙 −𝟐) ❑
𝟑 <𝟑
 
❑ The base, 3, is greater than 1
𝒙 𝟐 𝒙− 𝟒
 
𝟑 <𝟑 ❑❑
therefore the direction of
𝒙< 𝟐 𝒙 −𝟒
  inequality is retained.
 
𝟒 <𝟐 𝒙 − 𝒙  
 
𝟒<𝒙 Solution set:
Examples:
2. (
 
 
𝑥+5 ≤ 6 𝑥
(
 

5 ≤6 𝑥 − 𝑥
 

(
   
5 ≤5 𝑥
(
 
 
1≤ 𝑥 Solution set: )
 

 
𝑥+5 ≤ 6 𝑥
 
The base is greater than 0 but less than 1,
therefore the direction of inequality is
reversed.
Examples:
Solve the inequalities:
3.
 

 
The base, 5, is greater than 1
 
therefore the direction of
 
3 inequality is retained.
 

 
Solution set:
Examples:
4. (
 
 
𝑥+1 ≤− 2
(
 
 
𝑥 ≤ −2 −1
(
 
 
𝑥 ≤ −3
 
Solution set: (]
(
   
The base is greater than 0 but less than 1,
therefore the direction of inequality is
reversed.
