Question 1010859
His run total is 2^(season #)...thus 2^8 = 256...his eighth season...
Since his total goes up by a factor of two each year, we have
{{{y = 2^x}}}, a simple exponential function.
Taking the log to the base two of each side, we get
{{{log(2) of (y) = x}}} and
{{{log(2) of (256) = x}}}
By taking the log to the base two of 256, he gets 8.
