Answer

$$x=1.386$$

Work Step by Step

$$e^x=4$$ - Draw the graph of the function $y= e^x$ - Draw the graph of the function $y=4$ - Trace the point of intersection of the 2 graphs, the $x$ value of which is the answer to the given equation. Thus, from the graph, as the point of intersection is $(1.386,4)$, we conclude that $$x=1.386$$
