1. To solve this problem, you need to remember that an exponential function has the following form:

f(x)=a^x

"a" is the base and "x" is the exponent.

2. It is important to know that the logarithmic functions and the exponential functionsare inverse. Then, you have:

y=ln x
 e^y=e^(lnx)
 e^y=x

3. Therefore, the answer is:

x=e^y

Answer:

Aidan is 2 miles far from the ending point when he reaches the water station.

From starting point to ending point:

$D = \sqrt{(3-3)^{2}+(9-1)^{2}}$ (Eq. 1)
