Correction: That is not a logarithmic function, but here is how to find the critical numbers for the function.
Explanation:
Note that
#= e^x+2e^(-x)-3#
We need to solve
As a first step, try getting rid of negative exponents:
Get a common denomiator, noting that
So now we need to solve:
Again note that
Both are in
