Question 930460: Please Help:
The bilious mayor of Duckberg calls the mild mannered young city planner into his office to for a report on the city's projected population growth. The planner explains that the city's population is growing according to P(t)=68,378e^.03t, where t is in years and t= 0 is the present year. The mayor asks how long (in years) that formula predicts it will take to double the city's population. What should the planner answer?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(t)=68,378e^.03t,
2 =e^.03t
ln(2)/.03 = t = 23.1 years it will take to double the city's population
