\n" ); document.write( " $\"5%2B2ln%28x%29+=+4\"$ Subtract 5 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2ln%28x%29+=+-1\"$ Divide by 2.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"ln%28x%29+=+-1%2F2\"$ Rewrite this in exponential form.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"e%5E%28-1%2F2%29+=+x\"$ or
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+1%2Fsqrt%28e%29\"$ Evaluate using your calculator.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+0.6065\"$ Approx. \n" ); document.write( "
