5. Solving Exponential Equations
Sign In
When two functions intersect, the common points have the same y-values.
See solution.
ab^x = mx+ c We can solve an equation like this by graphing. To do this, we should graph both functions together. At the intersection points, both functions have the same y-value, and thus, the corresponding x-value satisfies the equation. Therefore, the x-coordinates of the intersection points are the solutions to the equation.
