Question
Solve the equation
x=3e5+12
Alternative Form
x≈53.471053
Evaluate
5−ln(x−4)=ln(3)
Find the domain
More Steps

Evaluate
x−4>0
Move the constant to the right side
x>0+4
Removing 0 doesn't change the value,so remove it from the expression
x>4
5−ln(x−4)=ln(3),x>4
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
−ln(x−4)=ln(3)−5
Evaluate the logarithm
More Steps

Evaluate the logarithm
ln(3)−5
Rewrite in terms of common logarithms
ln(3)+ln(e51)
Use the logarithm product rule
ln(3×e51)
Evaluate the logarithm
ln(e53)
−ln(x−4)=ln(e53)
Simplify
ln(x−4)=−ln(e53)
Rewrite the logarithm
ln(x−4)=ln(3e5)
Rewrite the expression
x−4=3e5
Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
x=3e5+4
Add the numbers
More Steps

Evaluate
3e5+4
Reduce fractions to a common denominator
3e5+34×3
Write all numerators above the common denominator
3e5+4×3
Multiply the numbers
3e5+12
x=3e5+12
Check if the solution is in the defined range
x=3e5+12,x>4
Solution
x=3e5+12
