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. $$\log _{3}(3 x-2)=2$$
Use a graphing utility and the change-of-base property to graph \(y=\log _{3} x, y=\log _{25} x,\) and \(y=\log _{100} x\) in the same viewing rectangle. a. Which graph is on the top in the interval \((0,1) ?\) Which is on the bottom? b. Which graph is on the top in the interval \((1, \infty) ?\) Which is on the bottom? c. Generalize by writing a statement about which graph is on top, which is on the bottom, and in which intervals, using \(y=\log _{b} x\) where \(b>1\)
Determine whether each statement is true or false. If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. Examples of exponential equations include \(10^{x}=5.71\) \(e^{x}=0.72,\) and \(x^{10}=5.71\)
Complete the table for a savings account subject to continuous compounding ( \(A=P e^{n}\) ). Round answers to one decimal place. $$\begin{array}{l|c|l|c} \hline \begin{array}{l} \text { Amount } \\ \text { Invested } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Annual Interest } \\ \text { Rate } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Accumulated } \\ \text { Amount } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Time } t \\ \text { in Years } \end{array} \\ \hline \$ 2350 & & \text { Triple the amount invested } & 7 \\ \hline \end{array}$$
Solve the system: $$\left\\{\begin{aligned}2 x &=11-5 y \\\3 x-2 y &=-12\end{aligned}\right.$$ (Section 4.3, Example 4)
