3609k=ln(.144)-ln(1.7E-2)
3609k= ln(.144*.017)
3609k= -6.012
k = ....
check my work.
Solve for k.
I have a TI30 calculator. Am I suppose to press just the ln button or do I have to press 2nd and then ln??
3609k= ln(.144*.017)
3609k= -6.012
k = ....
check my work.
1. Start by rearranging the equation to isolate the term with k:
(k s-1)(3609 s) = ln(0.144) - n [1.70E-2]
2. Next, divide both sides of the equation by (3609 s) to isolate the (k s-1) term:
k s-1 = (ln(0.144) - n [1.70E-2]) / (3609 s)
3. Finally, divide both sides of the equation by s-1 to solve for k:
k = [(ln(0.144) - n [1.70E-2]) / (3609 s)] + 1
Now, regarding your TI30 calculator, you should use the "ln" button to calculate the natural logarithm. Here's how you can use it to solve for k:
1. Calculate the value of ln(0.144): Press the "ln" button on your calculator and then enter 0.144. Press the "=" button to find the result.
2. Next, multiply the result from step 1 by n [1.70E-2].
3. Divide the result from step 2 by (3609 s).
4. Add 1 to the result from step 3 to find the value of k.
By following these steps and using the appropriate buttons on your calculator, you should be able to find the value of k in the given equation.
