The video tutorial covers solving exponential equations using the properties of equality. It begins by explaining the concept of like bases and how to set exponents equal when bases are the same. The tutorial then demonstrates solving equations with base 3 and rewriting bases to solve equations with different bases, such as base 5 and base 125. Finally, it explores creative solutions involving fractions and like bases, providing step-by-step examples to illustrate the process.

What is the key property used to solve exponential equations when the bases are the same?

• Set the coefficients equal

• Set the exponents equal

• Divide the exponents

• Multiply the bases
