SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on the mathematical extraction of variable X from the equation Y = (A-D)/(1 + (X/C)^B + D), where A, B, C, and D are known constants, and Y is a variable representing the OD value. The participants confirm that rearranging the equation leads to the expression (A-D)/Y - 1 - D = (X/C)^B, which provides a clear method to isolate X. This confirms that X can be derived using the known values and the variable Y.

how to extraxt the X

Y = (A-D)/(1 + (X/C)^B + D)

A,B,C,D, ARE KNOWN
Y is variable (OD value)

x - ?

Thanks

Hint: 1 + (X/C)^B + D = (A - D)/Y
 
Do you at least agree that (A-D)/y -1-D=(x/C)^B ?&&& seeing the last post, I realize that it looks as though my contribution tends to bupkes...
