My question concerns growth, but I do not understand how to use the log in the equation. It reads f(x)=400 log10 (2t+3). It is asking how many animals will there be after six months.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Assume you mean log,base10, which can just be written log( ), so we have
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 400*log(2t+3)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find f(t) when t = 6
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 400 * log[2(6) + 3]
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 400 * log(12 + 3)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 400 * log(15)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find the log of 15
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 400 * 1.1761
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "f(t) = 470 animals after 6 months
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this is what you mean.
