e^{14x}=402
Use the rules of exponents and logarithms to solve the equation.
\log(e^{14x})=\log(402)
Take the logarithm of both sides of the equation.
14x\log(e)=\log(402)
The logarithm of a number raised to a power is the power times the logarithm of the number.
14x=\frac{\log(402)}{\log(e)}
Divide both sides by \log(e).
14x=\log_{e}\left(402\right)
By the change-of-base formula \frac{\log(a)}{\log(b)}=\log_{b}\left(a\right).
x=\frac{\ln(402)}{14}
Divide both sides by 14.
