Answer:

Get natural log on both sides and subtract 8 to subject the unknown x.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Since this seems to be a quiz-type question I cannot provide a direct answer.
  • But I may help you to get it on your own with some effort from your side.
  • You may follow these steps. I hope you have a calculator to simplify the terms.

                        [tex]\begin{aligned}\\e^{x+8} &= 15\\\\ln(e^{x+8}) &=\small ln(15)\\\\(x+8) ln(e)&=\small ln(15)\\\\x+8&=\small ln(15) \cdots\cdots\cdots[ ln(e) = 1]\\\\x&=\small ln(15) -8\end{aligned}[/tex]

  • Let me know the answer.

Answer:

x = -5.29

Step-by-step explanation:

e^(x+8) = 15

==> take log of both sides

log(e) * (x+8) = log(15)

==> divide both sides by log e (log(15)/log(e) = 2.70805)

x + 8 = 2.70805

==> subtract both sides by 8

x = -5.29 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
