We need to know some log properties
1. when the base is not stated, assume that it is base 10 or log₁₀
2.
-log(10^-1)=
answer is D. -1
Answer:
the answer is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
6×3-1
= 17
Answer:
13.86
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for cont. compounding interest is
Amount = Principal * e^rt
in this case the principal is 5000, and the amount is 10000 (double). the rate is 5% or 0.05. and t is what we are solving for.
sub in to get:
10000 = 5000e^0.05t
2 = e^0.05t
now convert to log form.
ln 2 = 0.05t
ln 2 / 0.05 = t
punch that into your calculator and you get 13.86 years
2 because if you convert the fractions into decimals then divide it that way it will be 2
