Question 6701: I tried this natural log problem and keep comming up with the wrong awnser of .25 HELP! (please)
2e%5E%283x%29=4e%5E%285x%29 Am i just bad at algebra or is this somewhat complicated

great job on typing the formula.
2e%5E%283x%29=4e%5E%285x%29
2e%5E%283x%29%2F4e%5E%285x%29=1
%281%2F2%29%2Ae%5E%283x-5x%29=1
e%5E%28-2x%29=2
take natural log of both sides
-2x=ln%28+2+%29
x=-ln%28+2+%29%2F2
