  1. Isolate exponential term: Isolate the exponential term.\newlineTo solve for tt, we first need to isolate the exponential term e0.25te^{0.25 t} on one side of the equation. We do this by dividing both sides of the equation by 66.\newline6e0.25t=96 \cdot e^{0.25 t} = 9\newlinee0.25t=96e^{0.25 t} = \frac{9}{6}\newlinee0.25t=1.5e^{0.25 t} = 1.5
  2. Take natural logarithm: Take the natural logarithm of both sides.\newlineTo solve for the exponent, we take the natural logarithm (logarithm base ee, denoted as ln\ln) of both sides of the equation.\newlineln(e0.25t)=ln(1.5)\ln(e^{0.25 t}) = \ln(1.5)
  3. Apply logarithm property: 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.\newline0.25t=ln(1.5)0.25 t = \ln(1.5)
  4. Solve for t: Solve for t.\newlineTo solve for t, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.250.25.\newlinet=ln(1.5)0.25t = \frac{\ln(1.5)}{0.25}
  5. Calculate value of t: Calculate the value of t.\newlineUsing a calculator, we can find the approximate value of tt.\newlinetln(1.5)/0.25t \approx \ln(1.5) / 0.25\newlinet1.897/0.25t \approx 1.897 / 0.25\newlinet7.588t \approx 7.588\newlineRounded to the nearest thousandth, t7.588t \approx 7.588.
