Used to show growth rate in US after 1970, I just need to know HOW to do the problem, not the answer. Need to learn the material.

The inverse of e^x is ln, the natural logarithm. Take the log of both sides and solve for t. Hint: ln(a*e^x) = ln a + x
Divide both sides by 203, so you eliminate the co-effecient.
Then take the natural log of the both sides...
Be sure to realize, Ln(e) is ONE... see now we get the best of both answers here... I WIN!!!!! yeah!!! woot!!!

From here, it's just a simple algebra.
