How to solve

can you give more information, on whad do a, b, c, d, x and y represent. Are some of them variables,functions, series, or merely constants?
maybe this information would be helpful to me, and to others also who have more expertise.

 

Sure. It's real easy.

a = -b*x - x^(-y) - c*x^(-2y) - d*x^(1-2y)

If that's not the answer you were expecting then how about specifying which variable you want to solve for.

 

I think he did.

From OP

 

i guess natski already stated that he wants to solve for x.

 

Whoops, that will teach me to read all of the post and not skip the last line.

Sorry, that'ss a transcendental equation in x, so there will be no closed form solution.

 

ej uart how do u determine wheather it is transcendental equation in x?

 

Oh yeah it's not transcendental in x. If y is an integer it's a polynomial in x.

 

Well there might be some partiucular values of "y" for which it can work, but in general I don't think it's going to be possible.
