Let \(f(x)=\log _{a} x\) and \(g(x)=a^{x},\) where \(a>1\) (a) Let \(a=1.2\) and use a graphing utility to graph the two functions in the same viewing window. What do you observe? Approximate any points of intersection of the two graphs. (b) Determine the value(s) of \(a\) for which the two graphs have one point of intersection. (c) Determine the value(s) of \(a\) for which the two graphs have two points of intersection.
You invest \(\$ 2500\) in an account at interest rate \(r,\) compounded continuously. Find the time required for the amount to (a) double and (b) triple. $$r=0.0375$$
A classmate claims that the following are true. (a) \(\ln (u+v)=\ln u+\ln v=\ln (u v)\) (b) \(\ln (u-v)=\ln u-\ln v=\ln \frac{u}{v}\) (c) \((\ln u)^{n}=n(\ln u)=\ln u^{n}\) Discuss how you would demonstrate that these claims are not true.
Use a graphing utility to graph and solve the equation. Approximate the result to three decimal places. Verify your result algebraically. $$e^{0.09 t}=3$$
Students in a mathematics class took an exam and ther took a retest monthly with an equivalent exam. The average scores for the class are given by the human memory model \(f(t)=80-17 \log (t+1), \quad 0 \leq t \leq 12\) where \(t\) is the time in months.(a) Use a graphing utility to graph the model over the specified domain. (b) What was the average score on the original \(\operatorname{exam}(t=0) ?\)
