Exponential Equations with TI Nspire

This video tutorial demonstrates how to solve exponential equations using the TI Nspire calculator. It covers four problems, each solved by navigating through the calculator's menu to access algebra functions and using the 'solve' feature. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of specifying the variable to solve for and provides solutions for each problem, illustrating the process step-by-step.

What is the first step in solving exponential equations using the TI Nspire?

• Select the graph menu

• Hit menu, then algebra, then solve

• Enter the equation directly

• Use the calculator's basic functions

In the first problem, what is the solution for X when 3 squared equals 3 raised to 3 times X minus 5?

• X = 3

• X = 2

• X = 7/3

• X = 5

For the second problem, what is the equation solved using the TI Nspire?

• 3 squared equals 3 raised to 3 times X minus 5

• 4 raised to X equals 1/2 raised to X minus 6

• 3 raised to X equals 1 divided by 9 raised to 2 times X plus 5

• 2 raised to 4 times X equals 4 raised to X plus 3

What is the solution for X in the second problem?

• X = -2

• X = 7/3

• X = 3

• X = 2

In the third problem, what is the equation that is solved?

• 4 raised to X equals 1/2 raised to X minus 6

• 2 raised to 4 times X equals 4 raised to X plus 3

• 3 raised to X equals 1 divided by 9 raised to 2 times X plus 5

• 3 squared equals 3 raised to 3 times X minus 5

What is the solution for X in the fourth problem?

• X = 7/3

• X = 2

• X = 3

• X = -2
