Math tutorial for solving logarithmic equation using inverse operations

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations by isolating variables. It begins with undoing addition and subtraction, followed by undoing multiplication and division. The process involves converting a logarithmic equation into exponential form to find the solution. The final solution is calculated by raising the base to the power of the exponent.

What is the first step in solving an equation like 1/3 X + 5 = 7?

• Divide both sides by 3

• Add 5 to both sides

• Subtract 5 from both sides

• Multiply both sides by 3

Which operation should be undone first when solving an equation?

• Multiplication

• Division

• Addition or Subtraction

• Exponentiation

How can you isolate the term 1/3 log base two of X?

• Add 1/3 to both sides

• Multiply both sides by 3

• Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 1/3

• Subtract 1/3 from both sides

What is the equation log base two of X = 6 rewritten in exponential form?

• X = 2^6

• X = 6^2

• X = 2^3

• X = 6^3

What is the value of 2 raised to the power of 6?

• 128

• 64

• 256

• 32
