Chapter 5: Q. 68 (page 315)

Use a graphing utility to solve each equation. Express your answer rounded to two decimal places.

ln(2x)=-x+2

Short Answer

Expert verified

The solution of the given equation is 1.16.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

The given equation is:

ln(2x)=-x+2

02

Step 2. Determine the solution by the graphing utility.

Plot the graphs of y1=ln(2x)and y2=-x+2on a coordinate plane. The x-coordinate of the intersection point is the solution of the given equation.

The graphs intersect each other at x≈1.159. After rounding the value to two decimal placesx≈1.16.

03

Step 3. Conclusion.

The solution of the given equation is 1.16.
