Solution Steps

Solution Approach

To convert between exponential and logarithmic equations, use the relationships: ey=x e^y = x is equivalent to lnx=y \ln x = y , and vice versa. For part (a), convert the exponential equation ey=9 e^y = 9 to a logarithmic form. For part (b), convert the logarithmic equation lnx=4 \ln x = 4 to an exponential form.

Step 1: Convert Exponential to Logarithmic Form

Given the equation ey=9 e^y = 9 , we can rewrite it in logarithmic form. The equivalent logarithmic equation is: y=ln(9)2.1972 y = \ln(9) \approx 2.1972

Step 2: Convert Logarithmic to Exponential Form

For the equation lnx=4 \ln x = 4 , we convert it to exponential form. The equivalent exponential equation is: x=e454.5982 x = e^4 \approx 54.5982

Final Answer

The answers to the sub-questions are: (a) y2.1972 y \approx 2.1972
(b) x54.5982 x \approx 54.5982

Thus, the final boxed answers are: y2.1972 \boxed{y \approx 2.1972} x54.5982 \boxed{x \approx 54.5982}
