Complete the table for the time \(t\) (in years) necessary for \(P\) dollars to triple if interest is compounded continuously at rate \(r\). $$ \begin{array}{|l|l|l|l|l|l|l|} \hline r & 2 \% & 4 \% & 6 \% & 8 \% & 10 \% & 12 \% \\ \hline t & & & & & & \\ \hline \end{array} $$
Use a graphing utility to graph and solve the equation. Approximate the result to three decimal places. Verify your result algebraically. $$\ln (x+1)=2-\ln x$$
Is it possible for a logarithmic equation to have more than one extraneous solution? Explain.
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.
Use your school's library, the Internet, or some other reference source to write a paper describing John Napier's work with logarithms.
