Use the change-of-base rule to find an approximation for each logarithm. $$\log _{9} 12$$
Use the properties of logarithms to rewrite each expression as a single logarithm with coefficient 1. Assume that all variables represent positive real numbers. $$\frac{1}{2} \log x-\frac{1}{3} \log y-2 \log z$$
The concentration of bacteria \(B\) in millions per milliliter after \(x\) hours is given by $$B(x)=1.33 e^{0.15 x}$$ (a) How many bacteria are there after 2.5 hours? (b) How many bacteria are there after 8 hours? (c) After how many hours will there be 31 million bacteria per milliliter?
Suppose \(f(r)\) is the volume (in cubic inches) of a sphere of radius \(r\) inches. What does \(f^{-1}(5)\) represent?
Barometric Pressure The function $$f(x)=27+1.105 \log (x+1)$$ approximates the barometric pressure in inches of mercury at a distance of x miles from the eye of a hurricane. (Source: Miller, A. and R. Anthes, Meteorology, Fifth Edition, Charles E. Merrill.) (a) Approximate the pressure 9 miles from the eye of the hurricane. (b) The ordered pair (99,29.21) belongs to this function. What information does it convey?
