x=ln(35)

Explanation:

We have: 5ex+9=6

Let's begin by subtracting 9 from both sides of the equation:

5ex=3

Then, let's divide both sides by 5:

ex=35

Now, let's apply the natural logarithm to both sides:

ln(ex)=ln(35)

Using the laws of logarithms:

xln(e)=ln(35)

x1=ln(35)

x=ln(35)

Finally, to solve for x, let's divide both sides by 1:

x=ln(35)
