Solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( "(4e^x)+1=5
\n" ); document.write( "I'll restate it this way:
\n" ); document.write( "1+4e^x = 5
\n" ); document.write( "Now subtract 1, both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "4e^x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 4:
\n" ); document.write( "e^x = 1
\n" ); document.write( "To eliminate the exponent on the left, take the log_n both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "x = (2i)Pi*n
\n" ); document.write( "Good luck,
