What is value for x in the equation below?

e^(4.44x) = 170.8(8.63+6.42)

Note: Logarithms and exponentials will feature prominently throughout the course and understanding how to solve these types of equations (and knowing how to use your calculator) is essential.

Remember: if you want to express an answer in scientific notation, use the letter "E". For example "4.32 x 10⁴" should be entered as "4.32E4".
