I'm assuming the given log equation is 
If so, then the exponential form is 
This is because the general form 
transforms into 
For both equations, the 'b' is the base.
The monthly growth rate would be 16.5% divided by 12 which is 1.3%
Answer:
The procedure for this case is add three, then divide by 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
if y=5x-3
to find the inverse, we exchange x and y then solve for the new y.
x=5y-3 add 3
x+3 = 5y divide by 5
(x+3)/5 = y
or
inverse, y=(x+3)/5
The procedure for this case is add three, then divide by 5.
