Question 769063: This one is a doozy to me..please help...
Solve the equation. Write answers in exact form using logarithms if needed (no decimals): 8+2e^x=12
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20056)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

8 + 2ex = 12  
                         add -8 to both sides     
    2ex = 4   
                         divide thru by 2
     ex = 2
                         write exponential equation as a natural log.
     x = ln(2)
