Algebra.Com's Answer #694080 by Boreal(15235)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! 𝑤(𝑃) = 0.37 ln(3538.23) + 0.05 \n" ); document.write( "=3.073 or 3.1 ft/sec \n" ); document.write( "==================== \n" ); document.write( "3.4=0.37*ln P+0.05 \n" ); document.write( "3.35/0.37=ln P \n" ); document.write( "9.054=ln P \n" ); document.write( "now raise both sides to the e power, which removes the ln. \n" ); document.write( "8553.14 thousands or 855,314 \n" ); document.write( " |
