Q. Solve for the exact value of x.2ln(8x+1)+14=30Answer:
Isolate logarithmic expression: First, we need to isolate the logarithmic expression by subtracting 14 from both sides of the equation.2ln(8x+1)+14−14=30−142ln(8x+1)=16
Divide by 2: Next, we divide both sides of the equation by 2 to solve for the natural logarithm of (8x+1).22ln(8x+1)=216ln(8x+1)=8
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(8x+1)=e88x+1=e8
Subtract 1: Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate the term with x.8x+1−1=e8−18x=e8−1
Divide by 8: Finally, divide both sides by 8 to solve for x.88x=8e8−1x=8e8−1
