oh ln!

I have no clue that is the equation from above

opps sorry :( lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ln is the natural logarithm it is exactly like log but with base e. So simply input 18.1 + 2.21 * ln (14 + 1) into your calculator for the answer as x = 14 and x is the number of years since records started being kept :)
