x=e^3

Explanation:

First of all, let us start by doing simple changes:
19+2lnx=25
2 lnx= 25-19
2lnx=6
----------------------->>>>> we applied simple side by side manipulations, now we will do the division by 2 in both the sides, it will end up this:
lnx=3
--------------->>>>>> now we will use the inverse of ln, which is e
e^(lnx)=e^3
x=e^3 ----->>> now you should use a calculator or the problem may have this as solution depending on the assignment guidelines.
