Thread: Exponential Equation Help

Hi,
This is my first post here and am having trouble with a particular question. Any help would be apprecaited. Here it is:

solve:
ln,squareroot of x-2=1

or
ln/x-2=1

I can't figure out how to do a square root symbol with out the equation editor.

Thanks I hope you understand this

you put both in squared and you will get x-2=1


x=1+2
x=3

There is a mistake. I understand ln is natural log.
ln(sqr(x-2))=1 1=ln(e), ln sqr(x-2)=ln(e) ; sqr( x-2)=e; x-2=e^2 x=e^2+2= 2.7183^2+2=9.38915....or 9.39
