Log problems: Ln(e^pie^2), et cetera

[harneysl]

I need help with a whole bunch of log problems!

One of them is Ln(e^pie^2).

 

[Denis]

What's the question?
Post problem IN FULL.

Do you know what "e" is?

And use "pi", not "pie"!

 

[skeeter]

ln(e^x) = x

if x = (pi)², then ... ?

 

[stapel]

Ln(e^pie^2)

I will guess that the instructions are to "simplify" and/or to "evaluate". But what is the expression?

Since you know that "pie" is a dessert pastry and "pi" is the number, related to circles, that is approximately equal to 3.14159, then what you have posted means the following:

. . . . .ln(e^pi e²)

Is this what you meant? Or something else?

What have you tried? You've applied a log rule, right? And then the definition of logs, right? And... then what? Where are you stuck?

Please be specific. Thank you.
