I've run into a dead end trying to solve this equation and I was hoping that someone here might be able to point me in the right direction!
xlgx = x4/1000
-
xlgx = x4/1000
lg(xlgx) = lg(x4/1000)
(lgx)2 = lg(x4) - lg(1000)
(lgx)2 = 4lgx - 3
Now after this point I'm not sure what to do. I tried:
3 = 4lgx - (lgx)2
3 = lgx * (4 - lgx)
But that doesn't seem to lead me anywhere. Any help would be much appreciated!

The Attempt at a Solution
xlgx = x4/1000
lg(xlgx) = lg(x4/1000)
(lgx)2 = lg(x4) - lg(1000)
(lgx)2 = 4lgx - 3
Now after this point I'm not sure what to do. I tried:
3 = 4lgx - (lgx)2
3 = lgx * (4 - lgx)
But that doesn't seem to lead me anywhere. Any help would be much appreciated!
