Solve the equation algebraically. Round the result to three decimal places. Verify your answer using a graphing utility. $$\frac{1+\ln x}{2}=0$$
Rewrite each verbal statement as an equation. Then decide whether the statement is true or false. Justify your answer. The logarithm of the product of two numbers is equal to the sum of the logarithms of the numbers.
A logarithmic model has the form ________ or ________.
Determine the principal \(P\) that must be invested at rate \(r\), compounded monthly, so that $$\$ 500,000$$ will be available for retirement in \(t\) years. $$r=5 \%, t=10$$
If $$\$ 1$$ is invested in an account over a 10-year period, the amount in the account, where \(t\) represents the time in years, is given by \(A=1+0.075 \llbracket t \rrbracket\) or \(A=e^{0.07 t}\) depending on whether the account pays simple interest at \(7 \frac{1}{2} \%\) or continuous compound interest at \(7 \%\). Graph each function on the same set of axes. Which grows at a higher rate? (Remember that \(\llbracket t \rrbracket\) is the greatest integer function discussed in Section 1.6.)
