How do you solve this multi-step equation involving natural logarithms?

ln(x-3)-ln5=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1, when  subtracting logs with the same base you can rewrite it with one log and the argument becomes division...

ln(x - 3) - ln 5 = 1 becomes...

            ln [ (x - 3)/5 ]  = 1

Step 2, rewrite the by putting into exponential form...ln has a base of e, so we get..

    e^1 = (x -3)/5

Now solve...

  e = (x - 3)/5

       5e = x - 3

             5e + 3 = x

answer: all of the odd numbers were opened

the first person was the one that was opening all of the lockers. since one is odd, this causes all of the odd number lockers to be opened in the end.

8

step-by-step explanation:

just put √(2) * √(32) into a calculator. that will make the answer be 8.
