Question Prompt: Question prompt: What is the value of ln(1)?
Recall Definition: Recall the definition of the natural logarithm function. The natural logarithm function ln(x) is the inverse of the exponential function ex. Therefore, ln(ex)=x and eln(x)=x.
Apply Definition: Apply the definition to ln(1).Since e0=1, it follows that ln(1)=0 because ln(e0)=ln(1)=0.
Check for Errors: Check for any mathematical errors.There are no mathematical errors in the previous steps. The properties of the natural logarithm have been correctly applied.
