Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. If \(x=\frac{1}{k} \ln y,\) then \(y=e^{k x}\)
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. Because the equations \(2^{x}=15\) and \(2^{x}=16\) are similar, I solved them using the same method.
Use your graphing utility to graph each side of the equation in the same viewing rectangle. Then use the \(x\) -coordinate of the intersection point to find the equation's solution=set. Verify this value by direct substitution into the equation. $$2^{x+1}=8$$
Graph each of the following functions in the same viewing rectangle and then place the functions in order from the one that increases most slowly to the one that increases most rapidly. \(y=x, y=\sqrt{x}, y=e^{x}, y=\ln x, y=x^{x}, y=x^{2}\)
This group exercise involves exploring the way we grow. Group members should create a graph for the function that models the percentage of adult height attained by a boy who is \(x\) years old, \(f(x)=29+48.8 \log (x+1) .\) Let \(x=5,6\) \(7, \ldots, 15,\) find function values, and connect the resulting points with a smooth curve. Then create a graph for the function that models the percentage of adult height attained by a girl who is \(x\) years old, \(g(x)=62+35 \log (x-4)\) Let \(x=5,6,7, \ldots, 15,\) find function values, and connect the resulting points with a smooth curve. Group members should then discuss similarities and differences in the growth patterns for boys and girls based on the graphs.
