What is the exponential function in the form y equals c times e to the power of kx that passes through the points 1 180 and 3 20?

y = c ekxpassing through (1, 180) and (3, 20).(Note: All of the 'log' in the following are natural logs.)log(y) = log(c) + k log(x)Log(180) = log(c) + k log(1) = log(c)c = 180log(20) = log(180) + k log(3)log(20) - log(180) = k log(3)k = log(20/180) / log(3) = - log(9) / log(3) = -2y = 180 e-2xIn checking my work, I find that this doesn't work at all.Oh woe! Where have I failed ?--------------------------------------------Here's what I did:y=Cekx which passes through the points (1,180) & (3,20)(1) Substitute the values of x & y to create two equations:180 = Cek & 20 = Ce3k(2) Rearrange in terms of the constant, C:C=180/ek & C=20/e3k(3) Since both sets of points satisfy the exponential function, the constant will be the same so:180/ek = 20/e3k(4) Now rearrange and solve for k:180e3k = 20ek9 = e(k-3k)ln(9) = ln(e-2k)ln(9) = -2kk = -ln(9)/2 which is approx. -1.09861(5) Now substitute k into one of the equations to solve for C:C =180/e(-1.09861)C = 539.9987 or rounded to 540So the exponential function that includeds the points (1,180) & (3,20) can be approximated as:y = 540ekx , where k = -1.09861


Log 2 plus log 4 equals log 2x?

log(2) + log(4) = log(2x)log(2 times 4) = log(2x)2 times 4 = 2 times 'x'x = 4

What is log base 5of 125?

log(5)125 = log(5) 5^(3) = 3log(5) 5 = 3 (1) = 3 Remember for any log base if the coefficient is the same as the base then the answer is '1' Hence log(10)10 = 1 log(a) a = 1 et.seq., You can convert the log base '5' , to log base '10' for ease of the calculator. Log(5)125 = log(10)125/log(10)5 Hence log(5)125 = log(10) 5^(3) / log(10)5 => log(5)125 = 3log(10)5 / log(10)5 Cancel down by 'log(10)5'. Hence log(5)125 = 3 NB one of the factors of 'log' is log(a) a^(n) The index number of 'n' can be moved to be a coefficient of the 'log'. Hence log(a) a^(n) = n*log(a)a Hope that helps!!!!!
