Directions: Solve each exponential equation by taking the logarithm on both sides. Express the solution set in terms of logarithms. Then use a calculator to obtain a decimal approximation, correct to two decimal places, for the solution.
e^x=5.7
Answer by nerdybill(7384) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
e^x=5.7
To isolate the x, take the natural log (ln) of both sides:
x = ln(5.7)
x = 1.74
