We have the next given equation:
[tex]e^x=5.9[/tex]
Now, we can solve for x using the exponent's properties:
Add both sides ln:
[tex]\ln e^x=\ln5.9[/tex]
With the ln we can take down the exponent and simplify ln*e = 1.
Hence,
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=\ln(5.9) \\ x=1.77 \end{gathered}[/tex]
Hence, the correct answer is option B.
