In summary, Maple soft is a mathematical software program used for solving complex problems, including transcendental equations. It is a computer algebra system that allows users to input and manipulate equations. While it may not be able to solve all types of transcendental equations, it is best suited for algebraic, differential, and integral equations. Beginners may find it daunting, but there are resources available to help with learning. It also has a feature for providing step-by-step solutions and is not a free software, but there is a free trial available.

Hello guys, I am new to maple software and I am stuck on solving a simple transcendental equation:

sin(x)=x/2 over the range x=-3,...,3.

I know how to solve this equation for individual intervals, for example:
> fsolve(sin(x) = (1/2)*x, x = -3 .. -1);

> fsolve(sin(x) = (1/2)*x, x = -1 .. 1);

> fsolve(sin(x) = (1/2)*x, x = 1 .. 3);

However I want to solve it, so that it outputs all of the three solutions at once:

>fsolve(sin(x) = (1/2)*x, x = -3 .. 3);


Is this possible?
cheers
