6.6 Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Exponential Equations: Equations in which the variable expression occurs as exponents Example 1: Solving Exponential Equations Solve each equation a) 100 # = % %& #'( b) 2 # =7 Example 2: Solving a Real-Life Problem You are cooking a stew. When you take the stew off the stove its temperature is 212 o F. The room temperature is 70 o F, and the cooling rate of the stew is + = 0.046. How long will it take to cool the stew to a serving temperature of 100 o F?
