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. \(\log _{3}(3 x-2)=2\)
Complete the table for a savings account subject to continuous compounding ( \(A=P e^{n}\) ). Round answers to one decimal place. $$\begin{array}{l|c|l|c} \hline \begin{array}{l} \text { Amount } \\ \text { Invested } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Annual Interest } \\ \text { Rate } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Accumulated } \\ \text { Amount } \end{array} & \begin{array}{l} \text { Time } t \\ \text { in Years } \end{array} \\ \hline \$ 17,425 & 4.25 \% & \$ 25,000 & \\ \hline \end{array}$$
Explain how to use the graph of \(f(x)=2^{x}\) to obtain the \(\operatorname{graph}\) of \(g(x)=\log _{2} x\)
Hurricanes are one of nature's most destructive forces. These low-pressure areas often have diameters of over 500 miles. The function \(f(x)=0.48 \ln (x+1)+27\) models the barometric air pressure, \(f(x),\) in inches of mercury, at a distance of \(x\) miles from the eye of a hurricane. Use this function to solve. Use an equation to answer this question: How far from the eye of a hurricane is the barometric air pressure 29 inches of mercury? Use the \([\text { TRACE }]\) and \([\text { ZOOM }]\) features or the intersect command of your graphing utility to verify your answer.
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, to the nearest tenth, 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.
