How do you solve #-3e^(7a+9)+6=-6#? Precalculus Properties of Logarithmic Functions Natural Logs 1 Answer Shwetank Mauria Oct 8, 2016 #3e^(7a+9)+6==-6# does not have any solution. Explanation: #3e^(7a+9)+6==-6# #hArr3e^(7a+9)==-6-6=-12# and #e^(7a+9)==-12/3=-4# But no power of #e# can be negative, as for all #x's#, #e^x# is positive. graph{e^x [-10, 10, -5, 5]} Hence, #3e^(7a+9)+6==-6# does not have any solution.
