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 \(y=e^{k x}\)
Graph \(f\) and \(g\) in the same viewing rectangle. Then describe the relationship of the graph of g to the graph of \(f\). $$f(x)=\ln x, g(x)=\ln x+3$$
Complete the table for a savings account subject to continuous compounding ( \(A=P e^{n}\) ). Round answers to one decimal place. $$\begin{array}{l|c|l|c} \hline \begin{array}{l} \text { Amount } \\ \text { Invested } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Annual Interest } \\ \text { Rate } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Accumulated } \\ \text { Amount } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Time } t \\ \text { in Years } \end{array} \\ \hline \$ 8000 & & \$ 12,000 & 2 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
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.
a. Evaluate: \(\log _{2} 16\) b. Evaluate: \(\log _{2} 32-\log _{2} 2\) c. What can you conclude about $$\log _{2} 16, \text { or } \log _{2}\left(\frac{32}{2}\right) ?$$
