Q. Consider the equation\newline3e5w=88 -3 \cdot e^{5 w}=-88 \text {. } \newlineSolve the equation for w w . Express the solution as a logarithm in basee.\newlinew= w= \newlineApproximate the value of w w . Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.\newlinew w \approx
  1. Isolate exponential term: Isolate the exponential term.\newlineTo solve for ww, we first need to isolate the exponential term e5we^{5w}. We do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 3-3.\newlineCalculation: 3e5w=88:(3)-3\cdot e^{5w} = -88 \,|\, :(-3)\newlinee5w=883e^{5w} = \frac{88}{3}
  2. Take natural logarithm: Take the natural logarithm of both sides.\newlineTo solve for the exponent, we take the natural logarithm (ln\ln) of both sides of the equation, because ln\ln and the exponential function are inverse operations.\newlineCalculation: ln(e5w)=ln(883)\ln(e^{5w}) = \ln(\frac{88}{3})
  3. Apply property of logarithms: Apply the property of logarithms.\newlineUsing the property of logarithms that ln(ex)=x\ln(e^x) = x, we can simplify the left side of the equation.\newlineCalculation: 5w=ln(883)5w = \ln(\frac{88}{3})
  4. Solve for w: Solve for w.\newlineNow, we divide both sides of the equation by 55 to solve for ww.\newlineCalculation: w=ln(883)/5w = \ln(\frac{88}{3}) / 5
  5. Approximate value of ww: Approximate the value of ww. Using a calculator, we can find the numerical value of ww. Calculation: wln(883)5w \approx \frac{\ln(\frac{88}{3})}{5} wln(29.3333)5w \approx \frac{\ln(29.3333\ldots)}{5} w3.37715w \approx \frac{3.3771}{5} w0.67542w \approx 0.67542 Rounded to the nearest thousandth: w0.675w \approx 0.675
