Aimeefe55 said:I have 5 questions like this on my homework, but I think having one example would help me.
(1/(4.7(1.2)^x-4) = 3.5
I think I have to convert to (log)? But my answers do not correspond with the A-E choices
does your equation look like:
\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{4.7*1.2^x \ - \ 4} \ = \ 3.5\)

\(\displaystyle \frac{1}{4.7*1.2^{x \ - \ 4}} \ = \ 3.5\)
\(\displaystyle 4.7*1.2^{x \ - \ 4} \ = \ \frac{1}{3.5}\)
\(\displaystyle 1.2^{x \ - \ 4} \ = \ \frac{1}{4.7*3.5}\)
Now take log....
\(\displaystyle 4.7*1.2^{x \ - \ 4} \ = \ \frac{1}{3.5}\)
\(\displaystyle 1.2^{x \ - \ 4} \ = \ \frac{1}{4.7*3.5}\)
Now take log....
