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. $$\log (x-15)+\log x=2$$
Will help you prepare for the material covered in the next section. Simplify: \(16^{\frac{3}{2}}\)
Complete the table for a savings account subject to continuous compounding ( \(A=P e^{n}\) ). Round answers to one decimal place. $$\begin{array}{l|c|l|c} \hline \begin{array}{l} \text { Amount } \\ \text { Invested } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Annual Interest } \\ \text { Rate } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Accumulated } \\ \text { Amount } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Time } t \\ \text { in Years } \end{array} \\ \hline \$ 2350 & & \text { Triple the amount invested } & 7 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
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. $$2^{x+1}=8$$
The formula \(A=10 e^{-0.003 t}\) models the population of Hungary, \(A\), in millions, \(t\) years after 2006 . a. Find Hungary's population, in millions, for \(2006,2007\), \(2008,\) and \(2009 .\) Round to two decimal places. b. Is Hungary's population increasing or decreasing?
