Simplify each expression. ln e3= ln e2y=
Accepted Solution
Answer:[tex]ln\hspace{1mm} e^3=3[/tex], [tex]ln\hspace{1mm} e^{2y}=2y[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:We know that [tex]ln \hspace{1mm} e =log_e e= 1[/tex] and according to power rule:[tex]ln(x^y) = y ln(x)[/tex]Thus, [tex]ln\hspace{1mm}e^3=3 ln\hspace{1mm} e =3 [/tex][tex] ln\hspace{1mm}e^{2y}=2y ln\hspace{1mm} e = 2y[/tex]
