Throughout this lesson on exponential or logarithmic equations and inequalities, you decided whether or not solutions were reasonable, both in real-world situations and algebraically. While you were interpreting the function and deciding reasonable solutions, you went through a few thought processes.

In your notes list the thought processes you use to check for reasonableness.
