Answer is d) R(x) = 4 ln(x)

The natural log (ln) is really log base e:

     A logarithmic function.

Hope that helps!
When I post a solution I assume you have some level of mathematical sophistication. (For instance, if you post a question about differential equations, I'll assume you know how to take derivatives; if you post an algebra question, I'll try to provide more detail.) If anything doesn't make sense, feel free to PM me for clarification. No amount of degrees can prevent mistakes; if you find one in my work, please let me know.
