Question

P=258e^(0.024t)
When will the population reach 2512 people?

Answer 1

you miss a number

Answer 2

t = 94.82 years

Answer 3

how did you get that @smr_kml ?

Answer 4

it's the same steps but he wrote 25 instead of 258

Answer 5

oh shnap yea sorry.
2512 = 258e^(0.024t)
9.736 = e^(0.024t)
ln 9.736 = 0.024t
t = 94.828 years

Answer 6

That's right

Answer 7

Do you get it @Aprilmbug ?

Answer 8

Okay thank you!!!
I kept missing a step.

Answer 9

you just have to take the natural log of 2512/258 and then you will got
2.27 = 0.024t

Answer 10

and then keep the t on one side
t = 2.27/0.024= 94.82 years
