Isolate exponential part: First, let's isolate the exponential part of the equation by dividing both sides by 700.7001100=(1+120.2)12⋅t
Calculate left side: Now, let's calculate the left side of the equation. 7001100=1.57142857…
Take natural logarithm: Next, we need to take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides to solve for t.ln(1.57142857…)=ln((1+(0.2/12))12⋅t)
Rewrite right side: Using the property of logarithms that ln(ab)=b×ln(a), we can rewrite the right side of the equation.ln(1.57142857…)=12×t×ln(1+(120.2))
Calculate natural logarithm: Now, let's calculate the natural logarithm of both sides.ln(1.57142857...)≈0.45107562ln(1+(0.2/12))≈ln(1.01666667...)≈0.01652943
Solve for t: We can now solve for t by dividing both sides by 12×ln(1+(0.2/12)). t=12×ln(1+(0.2/12))ln(1.57142857...) t≈12×0.016529430.45107562
Calculate value of t: Finally, let's calculate the value of t.t≈12×0.016529430.45107562t≈0.198353160.45107562t≈2.274
