How do you solve -2e^(7v+5)-10=-17−2e7v+5−10=−17? Precalculus Properties of Logarithmic Functions Natural Logs 1 Answer Binayaka C. May 14, 2018 Solution : v ~~ -0.535 v≈−0.535 Explanation: -2 e^(7 v+5) -10 = -17−2e7v+5−10=−17 or -2 e^(7 v+5) = 10-17−2e7v+5=10−17 or e^(7 v+5) = 7/2e7v+5=72 Taking natural log on both sides we get, (7 v+5) ln e = (ln 7 - ln 2) ; [ln e =1](7v+5)lne=(ln7−ln2);[lne=1] :. (7 v+5) ~~ 1.253 ; :. 7 v ~~ 1.253-5 or 7 v ~~ -3.75 ; :. v ~~ -3.75/7 ~~ -0.535 (3dp) Solution : v ~~ -0.535 [Ans] Answer link Related questions What is the natural log of e?
