Question

14(1.042)^n=4.5(1.092)^n

what is n?

Answer 1

sorry. its 1.094

Answer 2

14(1.042)^n=4.5(1.094)^n

Answer 3

For your first step in solving take logs of both sides. Can you do that?

Answer 4

14/4.5=(1.094/1.042)^n
and then if we do log it will be

log (14/4.5)=n log(1.094/1.042)

Answer 5

n=23.30613587 wright?

Answer 6

Now you can divide both sides of your equation by log(1.094/1.042) to find the value of n.

Answer 7

Yes, your result is correct. Well done!
