No, you only reverse the symbol when the divisor is negative

No, you only reverse the symbol if you multiply or divide a negative number to both sides of the inequality.

An initial of the $100 is now valuated at $150. The annual interest rate is 5%, compounded continuously. The equation 100e^0.05=

tangare [24]

Answer:

8 years approximately

The problem (I'm assuming is):

Solve $100e^{0.05t}=150$ .

I put a t in the problem where I suspected it in went.

Step-by-step explanation:

$100e^{0.05t}=150$

Divide both sides by 100:

$e^{0.05t}=\frac{150}{100}$

$e^{0.05t}=1.5$

Rewrite in logarithm form.

$\ln(1.5)=0.05t$

Divide both sides by 0.05:

$\frac{\ln(1.5)}{0.05}=t$

Put left hand side into calculator:

$8.109 \approx t$

$t \approx 8.109$

So about 8 years if I wrote down the equation correctly.
