ln e^3 + ln e^3x = 6

Let's try the following method. We'll subtract ln e^3 both
sides:


ln e^3x = 6 - ln
e^3


We'll re-write 6 as:


6 =
6*1


We'll substitute the value 1 by ln
e.


6 = 6*ln e


We'll use the
power property of the logarithms:


6 = ln
e^6


We'll re-write the
equation:


ln e^3x = ln e^6 - ln
e^3


Because the bases are matching, we'll transform the
difference of logarithms from the right side, into a
quotient:


ln e^3x = ln
(e^6/e^3)


Because the bases are matching, we'll apply the
one to one property:


e^3x =
e^(6-3)


e^3x = e^3


Because the
bases are matching, we'll apply the one to one property:


3x
= 3


We'll divide by 3 both
sides:


x =
1

Comment on the setting and character of "The Fall of the House of Usher."How does setting act as a character?

Excellent observation, as it identifies how the settings of Poe's stories reflect the characters of their protagonists. Whet...
