Answer

The approximate solution for \(t\) is \(\boxed{2.6997}\).

Steps

Step 1 :The given equation is \(1026 = 13^t + 9\).

Step 2 :To solve for \(t\), we first need to isolate the term with \(t\) on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation. This gives us \(1017 = 13^t\).

Step 3 :To solve for \(t\), we can take the natural logarithm of both sides of the equation. This gives us \(\ln(1017) = t \cdot \ln(13)\).

Step 4 :Finally, we can solve for \(t\) by dividing both sides of the equation by \(\ln(13)\). This gives us \(t = \frac{\ln(1017)}{\ln(13)}\).

Step 5 :We can calculate this value to get the approximate solution for \(t\).

Step 6 :The approximate solution for \(t\) is \(\boxed{2.6997}\).
