Solving Equations q Use all Properties to solve Equations. Equation solving checklist: 1 ü Type of equation? ü Property needed? (TI-83/84 works too. Know it’s limitations. ) ü Rewrite equation to model property, if necessary, then apply property to solve. Ø Check all solutions of Logarithmic equations. (Solutions cannot make its input zero or negative. )
