Answer 1

Given;
6Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6 

We will transpose 6 in the Ln, so that we will leave Ln alone.
Ln (x + 2.8) = 9.6/6 = 1.6 

we divide the 9.6 to 6 and we get 1.6

x + 2.8 = e^1.6 
e^ for the substitution of Ln

x = e^1.6 - 2.8 
insert the e^(1.6) in the calculator and you will get 4.95303242439511 and subtract 2.8 and you will get the answer.

x = 2.153 
2.153 is the final answer in this question.
