Problem 45

Graph \(f(x)=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{x}\) and \(g(x)=\log _{\frac{1}{2}} x\) in the same rectangular coordinate system.

Problem 45

The logistic growth function $$ P(x)=\frac{90}{1+271 e^{-0.122 x}} $$ models the percentage, \(P(x),\) of Americans who are \(x\) years old with some coronary heart disease. Use the function to solve Exercises \(43-46\) At what age is the percentage of some coronary heart disease \(50 \% ?\)

Problem 45

Solve each exponential equation. Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms or common logarithms. Then use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution. $$e^{4 x}+5 e^{2 x}-24=0$$

Problem 45

The figure shows the graph of \(f(x)=e^{x} .\) use transformations of this graph to graph each function. Be sure to give equations of the asymptotes. Use the graphs to determine each function's domain and range. If applicable, use a graphing utility to confirm your hand-drawn graphs. $$h(x)=e^{2 x}+1$$

Problem 46

Use properties of logarithms to condense logarithmic expression. Write the expression as a single logarithm whose coefficient is 1. Where possible, evaluate logarithmic expressions without using a calculator. \(\log _{3} 405-\log _{3} 5\)

Problem 46

The logistic growth function $$ P(x)=\frac{90}{1+271 e^{-0.122 x}} $$ models the percentage, \(P(x),\) of Americans who are \(x\) years old with some coronary heart disease. Use the function to solve Exercises \(43-46\) At what age is the percentage of some coronary heart disease \(70 \% ?\)

Problem 46

Solve each exponential equation. Express the solution set in terms of natural logarithms or common logarithms. Then use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution. $$e^{4 x}-3 e^{2 x}-18=0$$

Problem 46

Graph \(f(x)=\left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^{x}\) and \(g(x)=\log _{\frac{1}{4}} x\) in the same rectangular coordinate system.

Problem 47

Use properties of logarithms to condense logarithmic expression. Write the expression as a single logarithm whose coefficient is 1. Where possible, evaluate logarithmic expressions without using a calculator. \(\log (2 x+5)-\log x\)

Problem 47

Graph functions \(f\) and \(g\) in the same rectangular coordinate system. Graph and give equations of all asymptotes. If applicable, use a graphing utility to confirm your hand-drawn graphs. $$f(x)=3^{x} \text { and } g(x)=3^{-x}$$
