Answer:


x=3

Explanation:

Assuming your original equation is


2ln(e^(ln(5x)))=2ln(15)\\

by the logarithm property
a*log(b)=log(b^a) this equation becomes


ln(e^(2ln(5x)))=ln(225)

This means


e^(2ln(5x))=225

Take the natural logarithm of both sides and get:


2ln(5x)=ln(225)

By the same lograthim property
a*log(b)=log(b^a), the left side is modified:


ln(25x^2)=ln(225)

which gives


25x^2=225

or


x=\sqrt{(225)/(25) }


\boxed{x=3}
