Q. Solve for the exact value of x.2ln(6x+5)−11=−3Answer:
Isolate logarithmic expression: First, we need to isolate the logarithmic expression. To do this, we add 11 to both sides of the equation.2ln(6x+5)−11+11=−3+112ln(6x+5)=8
Divide by 2: Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for the natural logarithm of (6x+5).22ln(6x+5)=28ln(6x+5)=4
Exponentiate to remove ln: Now, we will exponentiate both sides of the equation to remove the natural logarithm. We use the property that eln(x)=x.eln(6x+5)=e46x+5=e4
Subtract 5: We then subtract 5 from both sides of the equation to isolate the term with x.6x+5−5=e4−56x=e4−5
Divide by 6: Finally, we divide both sides by 6 to solve for x.66x=6e4−5x=6e4−5
