- In Problems 61–74, use a graphing utility to solve each equation. Express your answer rounded to two decimal places. 61. logs(x + 1) – log4(x – 2) = 1 62. log2 (x – 1) – log6(x + 2) = 2 63. e* = -x 64. e2* = x + 2 65. e* = x² 66. e* = x 69. In x = x – 1 73. e* = In x 67. In x = -x 68. In (2x) = -x + 2 70. In x = -x? 71. e + In x = 4 72. e - In xr = 4 74. e = -In xarrow_forward4.3.101 Suppose that $2000 is invested in an account that pays interest compounded continuously. Find the amount of time that it would take for the account to grow to $4500 at 5.25%. It would take approximately || years. (Round to the nearest tenth.)arrow_forward3. Find the formula for the exponential function passing through the points (0,1.5) and (1,5).arrow_forward
- Use the Jesaki Inc Information Below to Solve Questions 1- Below 1) Jesaki Inc estimates that it will sell N(x) units of product after spending $x thousand on advertising, as given by N(x) = -0.45 x^4 + 46 x^3 1,079 x x^2+ 161,973. What is the point of diminishing returns? Round to the nearest dollar. 2) The number x of bicycle helmets Jesaki Inc is willing to sell per week at a price of $p is given by x = a/p + b-c, where a = 80, b = 26, and c = 414. Find the instantaneous rate of change of the supply with respect to price when the price is $79. Round to the nearest hundredth (2 decimal places). 3) Jesaki Inc sponsered a blood drive following mathematical model relating systolic blood pressure and age: P(x) = a + bln(x+1), where P(x) is pressure, measured in millimeters of mercury, and x is age in years. By examining Guilford County hospital records, they estimate the values for Guilford County to be a = 43 and b = 27. Using this model, estimate the rate of change of pressure with…arrow_forwardSuppose that in a certain area the consumption of electricity has increased at a continuous rate of 5%. If it continued to increase at this rate, find the number of years before five times as much electricity would be needed. The number of years is about (Type an integer or decimal rounded to the nearest tenth as needed.)arrow_forwardAccording to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection Agency, the average airport wait time at Chicago’sO’Hare International airport is 16 minutes for a traveler arrivingduring the hours 7–8 a.m., and 32 minutes for arrival during thehours 4–5 p.m. The wait time is defined as the total processingtime from arrival at the airport until the completion of a passenger’s security screening. Assume the wait time is exponentiallydistributed.a. What is the probability of waiting between 10 and 30 minutesfor a traveler arriving during the 7–8 a.m. hour?b. What is the probability of waiting more than 25 minutes for atraveler arriving during the 7–8 p.m. hour?arrow_forward
- 4. A principal of 250 OR is deposited in an account that pays 0.064 interest compounded yearly. Account balance function in response of time (years)is f (x) = P(1+r)* P: initial value r: interest compounded yearly x: time in year a. Find the account balance after 5 years. b. By graphing show if the Account balance function is increasing or decreasing. c. After how many years the account balance will be 12000 OR.arrow_forwardThe table gives the population of the United States, in millions, for the years 1900–2010. Use a graphing calculator with exponential regression capability to model the US population since 1900. Use the model to estimate the population in 1925 and to predict the population in the year 2020.arrow_forward6. Write an exponential function for the graph that passes through the points (0, -3) and (4, -48).arrow_forward

Once an antibiotic is introduced to bacteria, the number of bacteria decreases exponentially. For example, beginning with 1 million bacteria, the amount present t days from the time streptomycin is introduced is given by the function A(t) = 1,000,000(2)-t/10. Rounding to the nearest thousand, determine how many bacteria are present after 1 week.arrow_forward6. Determine the equation for the following exponential function in the form of f(x)=ab*+ c.
