Question

Solve for x, 500 = 50*(1.23)^x

this is for an exponential functions task where 500 represents an animal population, 1.23 is the growth rate and 50 in the initial population.

x represents the periods in years

Answer 1

Explanation:

`x^n=p\\x=(\log(p))/(\log(n))`

`500=50*1.23^x\\10=1.23^x\\(\log(10))/(\log(1.23))= 11.12283811`
