Question

Which of the following is the solution of 5e2x - 4 = 11?

Answer 1

Answer:

It's C) x= in3/2

on Edg.

Answer 2

Answer:

x = (1/2)(ln 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Please indicate exponentiation using the symbol " ^ ":

5e^(2x) - 4 = 11

To solve this, add 4 to both sides, obtaining:   5e^(2x) = 15

Next, divide both sides by 5, obtaining                e^(2x) = 3

Now take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides:

2x = ln 3

Finally, divide both sides by 2, obtaining:           x = (1/2)(ln 3)

This last result is approx. equal to 0.549
