Answer 1

5(e)x+1−2(3)x=0

Answer 2

I don't think you are going to find a exact solution to this.

Would you post the problem exactly as it appears in your text?

I think some misplaced or missing grouping symbols have messed up the problem you meant to post.

Answer 4

if this is your question:\[5e^{x+1}=2\times3^x\]then first divide both sides by 5 to get:\[e^{x+1}=0.4\times3^x\]Then take logs of both sides to get:\[x+1=\ln(0.4\times3^x)=\ln(0.4)+\ln(3^x)=\ln(0.4)+x\ln(3)\]Hopefully you can solve for x from here...
