OpenStudy (kropot72):

Is this it? \[5=\frac{1.5^{t}}{10}\]

@yessikah_6 Can you please confirm that the question is as I posted.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

instead of the 1.5 to be over 10 its under the t?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 1.5 to the radical t/10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@kropot72

OpenStudy (kropot72):

\[5=1.5^{^{\frac{t}{10}}}\] So that is right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes @kropot72

OpenStudy (kropot72):

\[5=1.5^{\frac{t}{10}}\] Taking logs of both sides we get: \[\log_{} 5=\frac{t}{10}\log_{} 1.5\ ...........(1)\] To solve for t, first multiply both sides of (1) by 10. Then divide both sides of the result by log 1.5.
