Answer
a.) $\ln 2 = x$
b.) $\ln y = 3$
Work Step by Step
$Express$ $the$ $equation$ $in$ $logarithmic$ $form:$
a.) $e^x = 2$
b.) $e^3 = y$
Exponential form to natural log form: $e^b = a \rightarrow \ln a = b$ [Note: e means euler's number, NOT a variable]
a.) $e^x = 2$
Plug in x for b and 2 for a
$e^x = 2 \rightarrow \ln 2 = x$
b.) $e^3 = y$
Plug in 3 for b and y for a
$e^3 = y \rightarrow \ln y = 3$
