1. Investments: Some banks now use continuous compounding of an amount invested. In this case, the
equation that models the value of an initial investment of P peso in t years at an annual interest rate of r
is
given by A = Pen . Using this equation, find the value in 5 years of an investment of Php2, 500, 000 that
ANSWER:
A = Pen
A = 2500000 * e^(0.05*5)
A = 2500000 * e^(0.25)
A = 2500000 * 1.2840254166877418
A = 3,210,063.542
2. Radon-222 decays at a continuous rate of 17.3% per day. How much will 100 mg of Radon-222 decay
to in 3 days? Use the continuous growth formula A(t) = aert
ANSWER:
A(3) = 60.395
a. 72 = 49
log 7 49 = 2
b. 2^-3 = 1/8
log 2 (1/8) = -3
a. log 3 81 = 4
3^4 = 81
b. log 2 (1/16) = -4
2^-4 = 1/16
a. log 3 (1/9) = -2
b. log 2 64 = 6
Solve for x.
a. log 3 x = -2
x = 3^-2
x = 1/9
b. log 4 x = 0
x = 4^0
x=1
a. ln x = 4
x = e^4
x ≈ 54.598
b. log x = 2.5
x = 10^2.5 x
≈ 316.228
1. g(x) = log 4 x
2. f (x) = log 5 (x - 1)
B. The percent of light that will pass through a material is given by the formula log P = - kd, where P is
the percent of light passing through the material, k is a constant that depends on the material, and d is
the thickness of the material in cm. The constant k for a piece of opaque glass that is 0.5 cm thick is 0.2.
Find the percent of light that will pass through the glass. Round to the nearest percent.
C. The number of decibels, D, of a sound can be given by the equation D = 10(log I + 16), where I is the
power of the sound measured in watts. Find the number of decibels in normal conversation. The power
of the sound of normal conversation is approximately 3.2 * 10-10 watts.
