Exponnential Equation

[NadroJV13]

I could really use some help on this equation...I have no idea where to start I tried using the natural log to isolate and my answer just came out wacky...

9e^15x=12



Thanks

I would start by dividing both sides by 3. Then I would take the log (base e) of both sides and go from there.

I would start by asking you whether or not the exponent is 15x. You typed the LHS as the product of e^15 and 9x, but I suspect that it is supposed to be the product of 9 and e^(15x).

I also think that Loren meant to type, "… start by dividing both sides by 9".

I find it curious that you want us to figure out what you're doing wrong while you keep your work a secret.

If you had shown us what you did, then we would know what you need.

What a shame.
