Manipulating an expression using logarithms 2015-05-18
Katie pose la question :
Solve x=At^be^-ct for b in terms of c.
The e is Euler's number, not a letter or random placeholder.
v I've tried 2 methods on my calculator, and I am unsure as to why they give me different answers, and which one is correct.
For some reason, when placing a multiplication sign in between the A and the first t, I get a completely different answer. Why is this?
Also, which is the right answer for the question I have?
Thank you!
Katie :)

Natural logarithms 2003-07-22
Amanda pose la question :
I'm going into my senior year of high school. I will be taking AP calculus, and my teacher gave us some homework over the summer. However, there are two things that I do not understand how to do.

Secondly, I need to know how to do natural logarithms without a calculator. I was not taught how to do this, and the worksheet I was given only showed me how to complete them using a calculator.
