Graph \(f\) and \(g\) in the same viewing rectangle. Then describe the relationship of the graph of g to the graph of \(f\). $$f(x)=\ln x, g(x)=\ln (x+3)$$
Students in a psychology class took a final examination. As part of an experiment to see how much of the course content they remembered over time, they took equivalent forms of the exam in monthly intervals thereafter. The average score for the group, \(f(t),\) after \(t\) months was modeled by the function $$f(t)=88-15 \ln (t+1), \quad 0 \leq t \leq 12$$ a. What was the average score on the original exam? b. What was the average score after 2 months? 4 months? 6 months? 8 months? 10 months? one year? c. Sketch the graph of \(f\) (either by hand or with a graphing utility). Describe what the graph indicates in terms of the material retained by the students.
Each group member should consult an almanac, newspaper. magazine, or the Internet to find data that can be modeled by exponential or logarithmic functions. Group members should select the two sets of data that are most interesting and relevant. For each set selected, find a model that best fits the data. Each group member should make one prediction based on the model and then discuss a consequence of this prediction. What factors might change the accuracy of the prediction?
Without using a calculator, find the exact value of \(\log _{4}\left[\log _{3}\left(\log _{2} 8\right)\right]\).
In many states, a \(17 \%\) risk of a car accident with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 is the lowest level for charging a motorist with driving under the influence. Do you agree with the \(17 \%\) risk as a cutoff percentage, or do you feel that the percentage should be lower or higher? Explain your answer. What blood alcohol concentration corresponds to what you believe is an appropriate percentage?
