Problem 2
Write an equivalent exponential equation. $$ \log _{2} 8=3 $$
Problem 3

Problem 7
U.S. patents. The number of applications for patents, \(N,\) grew dramatically in recent years, with growth averaging about \(5.8 \%\) per year. That is, \(N^{\prime}(t)=0.058 N(t)\) a) Find the function that satisfies this equation Assume that \(t=0\) corresponds to \(2009,\) when approximately 483,000 patent applications were received. b) Estimate the number of patent applications in 2020 c) Estimate the doubling time for \(N(t)\).
Problem 8
Pete Zah's, Inc., is selling franchises for pizza shops throughout the country. The marketing manager estimates that the number of franchises, \(N,\) will increase at the rate of \(10 \%\) per year, that is, \(\frac{d N}{d t}=0.10 \mathrm{~N}\) a) Find the function that satisfies this equation. Assume that the number of franchises at \(t=0\) is 50 b) How many franchises will there be in 20 yr? c) In what period of time will the initial number of 50 franchises double?
Problem 9
If an amount \(P_{0}\) is invested in the Mandelbrot Bond Fund and interest is compounded continuously at \(5.9 \%\) per year, the balance \(P\) grows at the rate given by \(\frac{d P}{d t}=0.059 P\) a) Find the function that satisfies the equation. Write it in terms of \(P_{0}\) and 0.059 b) Suppose \(\$ 1000\) is invested. What is the balance after I yr? After 2 yr? c) When will an investment of \(\$ 1000\) double itself?
