Given the expression e^x = 0.98

To solve the equation, we need to make x the subjecet of the formula.

To cancel out the exponential function, we will apply natural logarithm (ln) to both sides of the equation as shown;

ln(e^x) = ln(0.98)

The ln will cancel exp to have;

x = ln(0.98)

The correct option is C.
