This document discusses exponential functions and equations. It explores the properties of exponential functions by examining their graphs and understanding exponential growth and decay. It also covers how to solve problems leading to exponential equations by learning about bases, exponents, powers, and index rules. The document teaches how to evaluate, write in different bases, identify exponential equations, and solve exponential equations. It includes exercises to solve from the attached document on exponential equations and functions.
