Question

Solving Exponential and Logarithmic Equations In Exercise, solve for x.
eIn x = 3

Answer 1

The solution for x is
`x = 3`

Explanation:

The first step to solve this equation is placing everything with the exponential to one side of the equality, and everything without the exponential to the other side. So

`e^(ln(x)) = 3`

The first part is ok.

We also have to know that the exponential and the ln are inverse functions. This means that, for example,
`e^(ln(x)) = x`. This solves this problem

`e^(ln(x)) = 3`

`x = 3`
