Solving Single Logarithmic Equations

What is the first step in solving equations with a single logarithm?

• Isolate the logarithm

• Subtract the base from both sides

• Exponentiate both sides

• Divide both sides by the logarithm

What is the purpose of exponentiating both sides of a logarithmic equation?

• To convert the equation into a quadratic form

• To introduce a new variable

• To simplify the equation's base

• To eliminate the logarithm

What does exponentiating both sides of the equation involve?

• Adding exponents to both sides

• Multiplying both sides by the base of the logarithm

• Converting the equation into logarithmic form

• Rewriting both sides as exponents over a common base
