Question

Solve this equation for x. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
1= ln(x+8)
Use the property z=a^logaZ

Answer 1

applying that property, you know that: \(e^{\ln x} = x\)

.. for your question, change the bases into e on both sides, so it will look like this:
\(\sf \large e^1= e^{ln(x+8)}\)

now simplify this using the property

Answer 2

Im still confused...could you explain the process??

Answer 3

if \(\ln(\text{whatever})=1\) then \(\text{whatever}=e\)

Answer 4

How do i go about finding the answer? I dont understand

Answer 5

Would it be 2??

Answer 6

What is e^1?

Answer 7

I dont know what e^1 is

Answer 8

then using the rule, what is e^ln(x+8) simplify to?

it is like z=a^log a z,
a= e
z= x+8 , therefore, e^ln(x+8) is equal to?

Answer 9

any number raised by one will be equal to the number itself., so e^1 =e

Answer 10

I still dont understand how to find the answer.

Answer 11

simplify the equation first before you can find the value of x

Answer 12

Ok
