Answer

a) $$\frac{13}{5}$$ b) $$\frac{e^{10}+1}{2e^5}$$

Work Step by Step

Remember that: $$\cosh x=\frac{e^x+e^{-x}}{2}$$ a) $\cosh ({\ln{5}})$ $=\frac{e^{(\ln 5)}+e^{-(\ln 5)}}{2} =\frac{5+\frac{1}{5}}{2} =\frac{\frac{26}{5}}{2} =\frac{26}{10} =\frac{13}{5}$ b) $\cosh 5$ $=\frac{e^{(5)}+e^{-(5)}}{2} =\frac{e^5+\frac{1}{e^5}}{2} =\frac{\frac{e^{10}+1}{e^5}}{2} =\frac{e^{10}+1}{2e^5}$
