Question

Solve for x ln(3x+2)=4

Answer 1

3x +2 =4

=) 3x = 4-2

=)3x =2

=)x =2/3

Answer 2

x = (e^4 -2)/3

x≈17.533

Explanation:

ln(3x+2)=4

raise each side to e

e^ ln(3x+2) = e^4

3x+2 = e^4

subtract 2 from each side

3x = e^4 -2

divide by 3

x = (e^4 -2)/3

putting this in a calculator

x≈17.533
