Question

Does anyone know how to solve the equation ln 2 - ln(x - 8) = 4, giving nearly 80 points

Answer 1

Answer:

x= 8.1353

x= 8.135 (rounded to the nearest tenth-thousandths)

x= 8.14 (rounded to the nearest thousandths)

x= 8.1 (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Note I am not 100% sure with my answer

2 − ln (x − 8)= 4

−ln (x − 8) + 2= 4

−ln (x − 8) + 2 + −2= 4 + −2

−ln (x − 8)= 2

−ln (x − 8)/−1= 2/−1

ln (x − 8)= −2

<solve for the logarithm (ln)>

ln (x − 8)= −2

e^ln (x − 8)= e^−2

x − 8= e^−2

x − 8= 0.1353

x − 8 + 8= 0.1353 + 8

x= 8.1353
