\"3%2Be%5E%285x-1%29=9\" Start with the given equation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"e%5E%285x-1%29=6\" Subtract 3 from both sides\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"5x-1=ln%286%29\" Take the natural log of both sides. This will eliminate the constant \"e\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"5x=ln%286%29%2B1\" Add 1 to both sides\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=%28ln%286%29%2B1%29%2F5\" Divide both sides by 5 to isolate x
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
