Answer
We use the logarithm property of equality to show $ln (4x-2) = ln 3$.
Work Step by Step
A natural log $ln$ is a log $log$ with base $e$. We rewrite $ln (4x-2) = ln 3$ as $log_e (4x-2) = log_e 3$.
Since the logs have the same base, we can simplify this by using the logarithm property of equality. Thus, we have $4x-2=3$.
