How do you solve #Ln(5x-4)=ln2+ln(x+1)#? Precalculus Properties of Logarithmic Functions Natural Logs 1 Answer Cesareo R. May 13, 2016 #x=2# Explanation: Taking #ln(5x-4) = ln(2)+ln(x+1)# or equivalently #ln(5x-4)-ln(2*(x+1))=0# or #ln[(5x-4)/(2(x+1))]= ln(1)# then results in #(5x-4)/(2(x+1))=1# or #5x-4=2(x+1)# and finally #x = 2# Answer link Related questions What is the natural log of e?
