Question 595474
Solve for x:
{{{e^(2x)+5 = 8}}} Subtract 5 from both sides.
{{{e^(2x) = 3}}} Take the natural log of both sides.
{{{ln(e^(2x)) = ln(3)}}} Apply the "power rule" for logarithms to the left side.
{{{2xln(e) = ln(3)}}} Substitute {{{ln(e) = 1}}}
{{{2x = ln(3)}}} Divide by 2.
{{{x = (ln(3))/2}}}
