Question 1046971
8x + e = (ex + 8)ln(8) 
Removing the Parenthesis by multiplying by ln(8)
8x + e = exln(8) + 8ln(8) 
Subtracting e and exln(8) fron both sides of = sign
8x - exln(8) =  8ln(8) - e 
Distributive Property
x(8 - eln(8)) =  8ln(8) - e 
Dividing both sides by (8-eln(8))
x = ( 8ln(8) - e ) / ( 8 - eln(8) ) 
Using Calculator:  e = 2.718 and ln(8) = 2.079
x = 5.93
