Solve for x. round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
2.7^(x-25)=12
ln(2.7^(x-25))=ln(12)
(x-25)ln(2.7)=ln(12)
xln(2.7)-25ln(2.7)=ln(12)
xln(2.7)-25ln(2.7)+25ln(2.7)=ln(12)+25ln(2.7)
xln(2.7)=ln(12)+25ln(2.7)
xln(2.7)/ln(2.7)=(ln(12)+25ln(2.7))/ln(2.7)
x=(ln(12)+25ln(2.7))/ln(2.7)
x=27.50178929

I always check these on my calculator:
2.7^(27.50178929-25)=12
2.7^2.501789292=12
12=12 We're right!!!
Happy Calculating!!!
