Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{8}{\ln(9)-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

I will make an assumption.

We are trying to solve:

[tex]9^x=e^{x+8}[/tex]

We first need to have the same base on both sides.  So I'm going to write [tex]9^x[/tex] as [tex]e^{\ln(9^x)}[/tex] using that natural log (ln( )) and e^() are inverses.

So we are going to rewrite the equation:

[tex]e^{\ln(9^x)}=e^{x+8}[/tex]

So now that the bases are the same we can set the exponents equal like so:

[tex]\ln(9^x)=x+8[/tex]

Using power rule we can bring down the x in front of ln( ):

[tex]x\ln(9)=x+8[/tex]

Now we need to get our terms with x on one side and terms without x on the opposite side.  To do this, we just need to subtract x on both sides in this case:

[tex]x\ln(9)-x=8[/tex]

Factor the left hand side like:

[tex]x(\ln(9)-1)=8[/tex]

Now divide both sides by what x is being multiplied by:

[tex]x=\frac{8}{\ln(9)-1}[/tex]
