Math Problem Statement

Write the logarithmic equation y = ln(4x) in exponential form.

Solution

The given equation is:

y=ln(4x)y = \ln(4x)

Recall:

The natural logarithm ln\ln is the logarithm to the base ee, where e2.718e \approx 2.718. A logarithmic equation can be rewritten in exponential form as:

ln(a)=b    eb=a\ln(a) = b \quad \implies \quad e^b = a

Solution:

From y=ln(4x)y = \ln(4x):

  • The logarithmic base is ee,
  • The argument of the logarithm is 4x4x,
  • The result is yy.

Rewriting this in exponential form:

ey=4xe^y = 4x

Final Answer:

The equivalent exponential form is:

ey=4xe^y = 4x
