    Use identity ln (a*b) = ln a + ln b

    ln(5x) + ln(2/x) = ln (5x * 2/x) = ln 10 = 2.3

    Given ln(5x) + ln(2/x)

    Use log rule log a+ log b= log (ab)

    ln (5x*2/x)

    ln(10)

    = Ln(5x) + Ln(2/x) → where x > 0

    = Ln[5x * (2/x)]

    = Ln(10)

    I can see why you're having trouble, there is nothing to solve, it's an expression not an equation.
