how do you work this type of problem: T= -0.518-184 ln (1-0.2) ? What do you have to do to get the answer 41? Do you first subtract the -0.581-184, then press ln then the (1- 0.2)?

You can enter the expression just as it is:  -0.518 - 184ln(1 - 0.2)

If you want to simplify it, simplify what's inside the parentheses first:   -0.518 - 184ln(0.8)

You then get an answer that rounds to 41.
