LEARNING COMPETENCY:
In this module, you will learn to:
• (M11GM-Ie-f-1) solves exponential equations and
inequalities.
• (M11GM-If-2) represents an exponential function through its:
(a) table of values, (b) graph, and (c) equation.
• (M11GM-If-3) finds the domain and range of an exponential
function.
• (M11GM-If-4) determines the intercepts, zeroes, and
asymptotes of an exponential function.
Lesson 1 Solving Exponential Equations and Inequality

EXPRESS YOUR THOUGHTS
Direction: Answer the questions below. Write your answers on a separate sheet.
1. How do we solve equations with exponential expressions?
2. How do we check solutions of exponential equations?
3. What are the difficulties you have encountered? Explain?
What is It
I. SOLVING EXPONENTIAL EQUATIONS
You can verify that 𝑥 = 3 is a solution by substituting it back to the
original equation:
43−1 = 42 = 16.
Exponential inequalities can be solved using the following property.
STUDENT TIP:
You should be careful in solving exponential inequalities such
as 𝑏𝑚 < 𝑏𝑛. The resulting direction of the inequality (𝑚 < 𝑛 𝑜𝑟 𝑚 >
𝑛) is based on whether the base b is greater than 1 or less than 1.

TEST I: SOLVE
1. 82−𝑥 = 2 2. ( 1/2 )𝑥 < 1/8 3. 5 𝑥 = 25𝑥−2 4. 3𝑥+2 ≥ 27
5. 43𝑥 = 8𝑥−1
TEST II: FILL IN THE BLANK
Fill in the blanks of the following statements with the correct missing
words or phrases.
6. ________________________ states that in (𝑥) = 𝑏 𝑥 , if 𝑏 𝑥1 = 𝑏 𝑥2,
then 𝑥1 = 𝑥2.
7. This property, as stated in the previous statement, applies in solving
______________________.
8. Given an exponential equation, first thing we see to it is that the bases
of both sides of the equation are ___________________.
9. In solving an exponential inequality, if base b is greater than 1 and 𝑏
𝑥1 > 𝑏 𝑥2, then ___________________.
10. Given that __________________________________, and 𝑏 𝑥1 >
𝑏 𝑥2, then 𝑥1 < 𝑥2.
