Question

Solve this equation for x. Round your answer
to the nearest hundredth.
1 = In(x + 8)

Answer 1

e -8 =x

Explanation:

1 = In(x + 8)

To get rid of the natural log, raise each side to the base e

e^1 = e^ (ln(x+8))

e^ln cancels

e^1 = x+8

Subtract 8 from each side

e^1 -8 = x+8-8

e -8 =x
