Dose anyone know what (z) = In z-8/6=-4

Question

allank · Answer

hint: if ln a = b, then e^b=a

anonymous · Answer

i don't get it?

allank · Answer

To solve this, you need to understand what 'e' is and how it relates to ln. Are you familiar with that?

anonymous · Answer

where do u get e from?

allank · Answer

The value of 'e' is pre-loaded into your calculator.

allank · Answer

Back to my question: Do you know how 'ln' and 'e' are related?

anonymous · Answer

im asking what z is ?

allank · Answer

Yes, in order to find the value of z, you need the knowledge of the relationship between ln and e. So that when I say that 
In z-8/6=-4
can be written as 
e^-4=z-8/6
You understand why. 
From that step, e^-4=z-8/6 , finding the value of z is just one step away.

allank · Answer

Kindly read about the relationship between 'ln' and 'e' so that you understand how I got to 
e^-4=z-8/6
Then solve for z from the above equation. Best wishes.

Is this expression [ In z-8/6=-4 ] supposed to be [ log z - 8]  / 6 = -4  or perhaps 
[ log (z - 8) ]  / 6 = -4 ?
