To graph this, use the well-known formula

In this case, . Are you allowed to use a graphing calculator? If so, it should look like this:



Unfortunately, using the algebra.com graphing system, I was not able to graph
, so it was necessary to insert the approximate value of ln 3 = 1.1. I don't have any idea why, because my graphing calculator handles it just fine! I spent a lot of time trying to graph this using the algebra.com using the denominator of ln 3, but it just wouldn't do it for me.
