Verified Answer :

divide by two

ln is base e. both sides of the equation are base e so the parts inside the parentheses are equal

x=2

Answer:

  \(x=2\) is the true solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the expression:

\(2\ln 4x=2\ln 8\)

Using:

\(n\ln m=\ln m^n\)

Our given expression becomes:

\(\ln{4x}^2=\ln{8^2}\)

Cancel ln from both sides we get:

\(4x^2=8^2\)

On simplification we get:

\(16x^2=64\)

\(x^2=4\)

Final simplification gives the result:

\(x=2\)
