Answer:

Explanation:

To solve this exercise you need to remember the following:

e^(lnx)=e^(lny) →
x=y

Therefore, keeping the above on mind, you can solve for x as following:

e^0=e^(ln(x+6))

e^0=x+6

Remember that, by definition:
a^0=1 , then you have:

1=x+6

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation.

Then the value of x is:

$1-6=x+6-6\\x=-5$
