Question

Solve e^x + 4 = 29 using the inverse property of exponents.

A) x = 25
B) x = ln 25
C) x = e^29
D) x = ln 29 − ln 4

Answer 1

I agree with answer B) because x=2ln(5)

Answer 2

Subtracting 4 from both sides, we get:

e^x = 25

Taking the natural logarithm of both sides (using the inverse property of exponents), we get:

ln(e^x) = ln(25)

x = ln(25)

Therefore, the answer is B) x = ln 25.
