Find all numbers \(x\) that satisfy the given equation. \(e^{x}+e^{-x}=6\)
Suppose \(x\) is a positive number. (a) Explain why \(x^{t}=e^{t \ln x}\) for every number \(t\). (b) Explain why $$ \frac{x^{t}-1}{t} \approx \ln x $$ if \(t\) is close to 0
Using a calculator, discover a formula for a good approximation of $$ \ln (2+t)-\ln 2 $$ for small values of \(t\) (for example, try \(t=0.04\), \(t=0.02, t=0.01,\) and then smaller values of \(t)\). Then explain why your formula is indeed a good approximation.
For \(x=0.4\) and \(y=3.5,\) evaluate each of the following: (a) \(\ln (x+y)\) (b) \(\ln x+\ln y\)
Estimate the indicated value without using a calculator. \(e^{0.00092}\)
