tanh(x)= 3/5

Solution

tanh (x) = \frac{3}{5}

Solution

x = ln (2)

Degrees

x = 39.71440 \dots^{\circ}

Solution steps

tanh (x) = \frac{3}{5}

Rewrite using trig identities

tanh (x) = \frac{3}{5}

Use the Hyperbolic identity:

tanh (x) = \frac{e ^{x} - e ^{- x}}{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}}

\frac{e ^{x} - e ^{- x}}{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}} = \frac{3}{5}

\frac{e ^{x} - e ^{- x}}{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}} = \frac{3}{5}

\frac{e ^{x} - e ^{- x}}{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}} = \frac{3}{5} : x = ln (2)

\frac{e ^{x} - e ^{- x}}{e ^{x} + e ^{- x}} = \frac{3}{5}

Apply fraction cross multiply: if

\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}

then

a \cdot d = b \cdot c

(e^{x} - e^{- x}) \cdot 5 = (e^{x} + e^{- x}) \cdot 3

Apply exponent rules

(e^{x} - e^{- x}) \cdot 5 = (e^{x} + e^{- x}) \cdot 3

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b c} = (a^{b})^{c}

e^{- x} = (e^{x})^{- 1}

(e^{x} - (e^{x})^{- 1}) \cdot 5 = (e^{x} + (e^{x})^{- 1}) \cdot 3

(e^{x} - (e^{x})^{- 1}) \cdot 5 = (e^{x} + (e^{x})^{- 1}) \cdot 3

Rewrite the equation with

e^{x} = u

(u - (u)^{- 1}) \cdot 5 = (u + (u)^{- 1}) \cdot 3

Solve

(u - u^{- 1}) \cdot 5 = (u + u^{- 1}) \cdot 3 : u = 2, u = - 2

(u - u^{- 1}) \cdot 5 = (u + u^{- 1}) \cdot 3

Refine

(u - \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 5 = (u + \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 3

Simplify

(u - \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 5 = (u + \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 3

Simplify

(u - \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 5 : 5 (u - \frac{1}{u})

(u - \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 5

Apply the commutative law:

(u - \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 5 = 5 (u - \frac{1}{u})

5 (u - \frac{1}{u})

Simplify

(u + \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 3 : 3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

(u + \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 3

Apply the commutative law:

(u + \frac{1}{u}) \cdot 3 = 3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

5 (u - \frac{1}{u}) = 3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

5 (u - \frac{1}{u}) = 3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

Expand

5 (u - \frac{1}{u}) : 5 u - \frac{5}{u}

5 (u - \frac{1}{u})

Apply the distributive law:

a (b - c) = ab - a c

a = 5, b = u, c = \frac{1}{u}

= 5 u - 5 \cdot \frac{1}{u}

5 \cdot \frac{1}{u} = \frac{5}{u}

5 \cdot \frac{1}{u}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 5}{u}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 5 = 5

= \frac{5}{u}

= 5 u - \frac{5}{u}

Expand

3 (u + \frac{1}{u}) : 3 u + \frac{3}{u}

3 (u + \frac{1}{u})

Apply the distributive law:

a (b + c) = ab + a c

a = 3, b = u, c = \frac{1}{u}

= 3 u + 3 \cdot \frac{1}{u}

3 \cdot \frac{1}{u} = \frac{3}{u}

3 \cdot \frac{1}{u}

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{1 \cdot 3}{u}

Multiply the numbers:

1 \cdot 3 = 3

= \frac{3}{u}

= 3 u + \frac{3}{u}

5 u - \frac{5}{u} = 3 u + \frac{3}{u}

Multiply both sides by

u

5 u - \frac{5}{u} = 3 u + \frac{3}{u}

Multiply both sides by

u

5 uu - \frac{5}{u} u = 3 uu + \frac{3}{u} u

Simplify

5 uu - \frac{5}{u} u = 3 uu + \frac{3}{u} u

Simplify

5 uu : 5 u^{2}

5 uu

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

uu = u^{1 + 1}

= 5 u^{1 + 1}

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 5 u^{2}

Simplify

- \frac{5}{u} u : - 5

- \frac{5}{u} u

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= - \frac{5 u}{u}

Cancel the common factor:

u

= - 5

Simplify

3 uu : 3 u^{2}

3 uu

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b} \cdot a^{c} = a^{b + c}

uu = u^{1 + 1}

= 3 u^{1 + 1}

Add the numbers:

1 + 1 = 2

= 3 u^{2}

Simplify

\frac{3}{u} u : 3

\frac{3}{u} u

Multiply fractions:

a \cdot \frac{b}{c} = \frac{a \cdot b}{c}

= \frac{3 u}{u}

Cancel the common factor:

u

= 3

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3

Solve

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3 : u = 2, u = - 2

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3

Move

5

to the right side

5 u^{2} - 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3

Add

5

to both sides

5 u^{2} - 5 + 5 = 3 u^{2} + 3 + 5

Simplify

5 u^{2} = 3 u^{2} + 8

5 u^{2} = 3 u^{2} + 8

Move

3 u^{2}

to the left side

5 u^{2} = 3 u^{2} + 8

Subtract

3 u^{2}

from both sides

5 u^{2} - 3 u^{2} = 3 u^{2} + 8 - 3 u^{2}

Simplify

2 u^{2} = 8

2 u^{2} = 8

Divide both sides by

2

2 u^{2} = 8

Divide both sides by

2

\frac{2 u ^{2}}{2} = \frac{8}{2}

Simplify

u^{2} = 4
