The first step is to simplify:
\n" ); document.write( "7 = ln5x + ln5x
\n" ); document.write( "7 = 2ln5x
\n" ); document.write( "3.5 = ln5x
\n" ); document.write( "Now we try to eliminate the ln from the equation so we raise everything to thepower of e
\n" ); document.write( "e^3.5 = e^ln5x
\n" ); document.write( "By the identity rule, e^ln5x is equal to 5x
\n" ); document.write( "5x = e3.5
\n" ); document.write( "5x = 33.1
\n" ); document.write( "x = 6.62\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
