Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. Because the equations $$\log (3 x+1)=5 \text { and } \log (3 x+1)=\log 5$$ 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. $$3^{x}=2 x+3$$
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 \(43-46\) What percentage of 20 -year-olds have some coronary heart disease?
a. Simplify: \(e^{\ln 3}\) b. Use your simplification from part (a) to rewrite \(3^{x}\) in terms of base \(e\)
Exercises \(83-85\) will help you prepare for the material covered in the first section of the next chapter. a. Does \((4,-1)\) satisfy \(x+2 y=2 ?\) b. Does \((4,-1)\) satisfy \(x-2 y=6 ?\)
