Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations Exponential Equations (variable in exponent position) 1. Isolate the exponential portion ( base exp onent ): Move all non-exponential factors or terms to the other side of the equation. 2. Take ln or log of each side of the equation. • Make sure to use ln if the base is “e”. Then remember that ln e = 1 . • Make sure to use log if the base is 10. • If the base is neither “e” nor “10”‚ use either ln or log‚ your choice.. 3. Bring the power (exponent)

US light vehicle sales ended 2013 up 7.6% at 15.60mn‚ in line with Researcher ’s forecast of an 8.2% increase to15.68mn. With macroeconomic conditions largely favorable‚ we expect further growth‚ albeit slightly slower at 3.6%‚ to be achievable in 2014‚ taking the market back to 16mn units for the first time since 2007. We expect light trucks to continue to outperform the car segment‚ led by a slew of new product launches. Looking ahead‚ positive data from the residential housing sector‚ as part
