Define Domain: First, we need to address the domain of the function (ex−1)/(ln(x+1)) to avoid any undefined expressions. The natural logarithm ln(x+1) is defined for x>−1. Additionally, since we have an inequality involving a fraction, we must ensure that the denominator is not zero, so x cannot be equal to 0. Thus, the domain of x is x>−1 and x=0.
Solve Left Inequality: Next, we will solve the left part of the inequality: 1<ln(x+1)ex−1. We will multiply both sides by ln(x+1) to get rid of the denominator, but we must remember that the direction of the inequality will depend on the sign of ln(x+1). Since ln(x+1) is positive for x>0 and negative for −1<x<0, we will have to consider these two cases separately.
Consider Cases: For x>0, ln(x+1) is positive. Multiplying both sides of the inequality by ln(x+1) gives us ln(x+1)<ex−1. We then add 1 to both sides to isolate ex on one side: ln(x+1)+1<ex.
Solve Right Inequality: For −1<x<0, ln(x+1) is negative. Multiplying both sides of the inequality by ln(x+1) and reversing the inequality sign gives us ln(x+1)>ex−1. We then add 1 to both sides to isolate ex on one side: ln(x+1)+1>ex. However, this case leads to a contradiction since ex is always greater than ln(x+1)+1 for −1<x<0. Therefore, there are no solutions in this interval.
Simplify Inequality: Now we will solve the right part of the inequality: (ex−1)/(ln(x+1))<(x+1)ex. We will multiply both sides by ln(x+1) to get rid of the denominator. Since we are considering x>0, ln(x+1) is positive, and the direction of the inequality remains the same: ex−1<(x+1)exln(x+1).
Isolate Term: We simplify the inequality by distributing ex on the right side: ex−1<ex(x+1)ln(x+1)−exln(x+1). This simplifies to −1<exxln(x+1)−exln(x+1).
Factor Out: We can then add exln(x+1) to both sides to isolate the term with x on one side: exln(x+1)−1<exxln(x+1).
Divide and Solve: Now we can factor out exln(x+1) on the right side: exln(x+1)−1<exln(x+1)(x).
Complex Inequality: We divide both sides by exln(x+1) to solve for x. Since exln(x+1) is positive for x>0, the direction of the inequality remains the same: exln(x+1)1−(exln(x+1))21<x.
Summary: This inequality is quite complex to solve algebraically, and it may require numerical methods or graphing techniques to find the exact range of x that satisfies it. However, we can see that as x increases, the left side approaches 0, and thus for sufficiently large x, the inequality will be satisfied.

However, we can see that as x increases, the left side approaches 0, and thus for sufficiently large x, the inequality will be satisfied.To summarize, we have found that for x>0, the inequality ln(x+1)+1<ex must be satisfied, and for sufficiently large x, the inequality exln(x+1)1−(exln(x+1))21<x is satisfied. Therefore, the range of x that satisfies the original inequality is a subset of x>0, excluding any values that do not satisfy both parts of the inequality.
