Solve for x.

23. 8x = 512 24. 6x – 2 = 1296 25. 32x – 2(3x) – 8 = 0

26. logx 243 = 5 27. 3x+2 = 4x - 5 28. 3e-5x = 132

29. 14e3x + 2 = 560 30. –4 (5x) = -68 31. ln 5x = 7.2

32. ln x – ln 3 = 2 33. ln x +8 = 3 34. log (1 – x) = -1

35. log (x – 1) = log (x – 2) – log (x + 2)

36. You deposit $7550 into an account that pays 7.25% interest, compounded continuously. How long
will it take the money to triple?

37. The demand equation for a certain product is modeled by p = 500 – 0.5e0.004x. Find the demand x
that corresponds to a price of
a) p = $450 b) p = $400

38. In 1990, the population of Cincinnati was 364,040. In 2000, the population was 331,285.
