Solve this equation for x. Round your answer to
the nearest hundredth.
3 = In(x + 9)

Answer:
x ≈ 11.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the rule of logarithms
[tex]log_{b}[/tex] x = n ⇒ x = [tex]b^{n}[/tex]
Given
ln(x + 9) = 3 , that is
[tex]log_{e}[/tex] (x + 9) = 3 , then
x + 9 = e³ ( subtract 9 from both sides )
x = e³ - 9 ≈ 11.09 ( to the nearest hundredth )
