Question

how do you solve:
e^(x+5)=(e^x)+6
please

Answer 1

e^(x+5)=(e^x)+6
e^x ( e^5 -1) = 6
e^x = 6/ ( e^5 -1)
x= ln [ 6/ (e^5-1)]

Answer 2

that is correct, thank you! may i ask though how you derived (e^5-1)?

Answer 3

e^(x+5) = (e^x)*(e^5)

Answer 4

im so sorry, i still don't understand how you get e^5-1 from that

Answer 5

e^(x+5)=(e^x)+6
take out the common factor of e^(x+5) and (e^x), which is e^x:
e^x ( e^5 -1) = 6
e^x = 6/ ( e^5 -1)
x= ln [ 6/ (e^5-1)]
got it ??????

Answer 6

yesss thank you
