This is not a homework question, I just think I just fucked up my final.
How would I solve this for sigma?
I really thought the only way would be to use logarithms.

You do, you use the natural log.
>>7711080
That's really the only way to bring down an exponent like that then right?
>>7711084
Yep!
I may not have failed! Thank you!
[math]\frac{-1}{nx} \cdot ln\left( \frac{N}{N_o}\right) = \sigma[/math]
This is literally math for 14 year olds.

Could have been part of an intro physivs or chem problem and op just didn't quite remember math from years ago
>>7711077
derive with respect to -nx
>>7711077
[eqn] N= N_0 e^{ - \sigma n x} \implies \frac{N}{ N_0 } = e^{ - \sigma n x} ~~~\therefore~~~ \ln \left( \frac{N}{ N_0 } \right) = -\sigma n x [/eqn]

No, it isn't, in any country whatsoever.
This is senior year.
