An exponential equation is an equation containing one or more expressions that have a variable as an exponent. To solve exponential equations:
• Try writing them so that the bases are all the same. If b x = b y , then x = y (b ≠ 0, b ≠ 1) .
• Take the logarithm of both sides. If a = b, then log a = log b (a > 0, b > 0) .

Solve and check.
A 8 x = 2 x + 6 ( 2 3 )
x = 2 x + 6 Rewrite each side with the same base; 8 is a power of 2.
2 3x = 2 x + 6 To raise a power to a power, multiply exponents.
3x = x + 6 Bases are the same, so the exponents must be equal.
x = 3 Solve for x.
Check −−−−−−− 8 x 2 x + 6 8 3 2 3 + 6 8 3 2 9 512 512 ✔ The solution is x = 3.
B 5 x - 2 = 200 log 5 x - 2 = log 200
200 is not a power of 5, so take the log of both sides.
(x - 2) log 5 = log 200 Apply the Power Property of Logarithms.
Who uses this?Exponential scales are used to measure light in photography. (See Exercise 40.)
When you use a rounded number in a check, the result will not be exact, but it should be reasonable.

You can choose a prize of either a $20,000 car or one penny on the first day, double that (2 cents) on the second day, and so on for a month. On what day would you receive more than the value of the car?
$20,000 is 2,000,000 cents. On day 1, you would receive 1 cent, or 2 0 cents. On day 2, you would receive 2 cents, or 2 1 cents, and so on. So, on day n you would receive 2 n-1 cents.
Solve 2 n - 1 > 2 × 10 6 . Write 2,000,000 in scientific notation.
log 2 n - 1 > log (2 × 10 6 ) Take the log of both sides.
(n - 1) log 2 > log 2 + log 10 6 Use the Power Property and Product Property.
(n - 1) log 2 > log 2 + 6 log 10 6 is 6.
n - 1 > log 2 + 6
_ log 2
Divide both sides by log 2.
n > ≈ 0.301 + 6 _ 0.301
+ 1 Evaluate by using a calculator.
n > ≈ 21.93 Round this up to the next whole number.
Beginning on day 22, you would receive more than the value of the car.
Check On day 22, you would receive 2 22 - 1 cents.
2 22 - 1 = 2 21 = 2,097,152 cents, or $20,971.52.
2. In Example 2, suppose that you receive triple the amount each day. On what day would you receive at least a million dollars?
A logarithmic equation is an equation with a logarithmic expression that contains a variable. You can solve logarithmic equations by using the properties of logarithms.
