f(x) = 2x, what is f(4)?
f(4)=16
5x=14.
Solve for x. Don't round until the final answer, and then round to 4 decimal places.
x=1.6397
log5 625= 4. Convert to the equivalent exponential form.
54=625
log7sqrt(7) = x. evaluate/solve for x without using a calculator.
( hint:how do we cancel out n2 using another exponent?)
x=1/2
e4x=6
0.448=x
2logx + 7logy. Condense the equation.
log(x2y7)
ln (1), find the value of the logarithm.
ln(1) = 0
If f(x) = ax, and f(2)=25, find f(3).
f(3)=125
2-2x= 1/16
x=2
3logx + 8logy - log 3. Condense the Equation.
log ((x3y8)/3)
ln(3x+16)-lnx=ln4
x=16
ln29= 3.3673
2x+2=9x
0.922=x
log ((2x4y5)/z8). Expand the expression.
log 2 + 4logx + 5logy - 8logz
ln(3x+25)=ln(2x+14)
(hint: remember to check your work!)

46x-3=256. Solve this exponential equation without logarithms.
x= 7/6 or 1.16
The amount of a certain radioactive material (in grams) in a storage facility at time t is given by
C(t)=53e−0.11t , where time is measured in years.
(a) How much of the radioactive material was present initially?
(b) What is the half-life of the radioactive material? (Hint: For what value of t is C(t)=26.5?) ( +100 Points)
a) 53 grams
b) 6.3 years.
log7730=x. Solve for x. Round to 6 decimal places.

The average annual expenditures for a country's consumers of dairy products can be approximated by the function
g(x)=35.8 + 141.6lnx, where x= 10 corresponds to 2010.
a) find 2014 and 2018.
b) (extra 100 points) assuming the model remains accurate, what is the first year where expenditures exceed $485?
a) g(14)=409.49, g(18)=445.08
b) x= 23.86, therefore the first year to exceed is x=24, or 2024.
