(104e^(−r*1.5))=96-7.396 simplify
104e^(-1,5r) = 88.604 divide both sides by 104
e^(-1.5r) = 88.604/104 take the ln of both sides
ln e^(-1.5r) = ln (88.604/104) and we can write
(-1.5r)lne = ln(88.604/104) and ln e = 1 so we can ignore this
(-1.5r) = ln(88.604/104) divide both sides by -1.5
r = ln(88.604/104)/( -1.5) ≈ 0 .106809
