P =12 + 50ln x respresents the percentage of inbound e-mail in the U.S that is considered spam. where x is the number of years after 2001. Carry all calculation to six decimals on each step, when necessary.

\n" ); document.write( "SHOW YOUR WORK:
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2005-2001 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "P = 12 + 50(ln(4))
\n" ); document.write( "P = 12 + 69.314718 = 71.314718%

\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER:
\n" ); document.write( "90 = 12 + 50ln(x)
\n" ); document.write( "78 = 50 ln(x)
\n" ); document.write( "ln(x) = 38/25
\n" ); document.write( "x = e^(38/25)
\n" ); document.write( "x = 4.572225 yrs
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "2001 + 4.572225 = 2005.572225 or in the year 2006
