2-ln(3-x)=0
ln(3-x)=2
e^ln(3-x)=e^2
3-x=e^2
x=3-e^2

step one: add ln(3-x) to both sides
2 = ln(3-x)
step two: exponentiate e to both sides (in other words, take base e anti-log of both sides)
e^2 = e^ln(3-x) = 3-x
step three: add (x-e^2) to both sides
x = 3-e^2
optional step four: use a calculator to get an approximation
x=-4.389

answer is negative
below, "tinned" made a mistake in the step that gave him
3-e^2 = x (it should be 3-e^2 = -x)
guess that "AS level maths" isn't working out so well

ln (3 - x) = 2
3 - x = e ²
x = 3 - e ²

2 - ln(3-x) = 0
so,
2 = ln(3 -x)
e^2 = 3-x
(e ^2) -3 = x
4.389056... = x
x = 4.39 (3 significant figures)

2-ln(3-x)=0
2=ln(3-x)
e^2 = 3-x
3-2.718*2.718=x (approx)
or -4.38905609893068
