Explanation

(a) Applying the laws of logarithm, log(y + 2) = log ax which amplies that y + 2 = ax and finding x to get

x = \(\frac{y + 2}{a}\)

(b)(i) The pie is shown

(b)(i) The percentage of timber produced that year that was from Amenfi = \(\frac{900}{7200}\) x 100% = 12.5%

(ii) Difference in revenue = $560.00(1800 - 600) = $672,000.00
