. . . Then x depends on value of n.

There is infinite set of solutions  {x}  for  n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, . . .

As posted,  the problem is either incomplete, or incorrect, or non-sensical.

In any case,  it can not be considered as a proper  Math problem.

My kind advise to you is to throw this  " problem "  to the closest garbage bin.

To the managers of this project. Attention ! Attention ! Attention !


I got today two non-sensical messages/posts approximately of the same kind.

One is  THIS  post.

Another is the post under this link
https://www.algebra.com/algebra/homework/complex/Complex_Numbers.faq.question.1207847.html


Looking in both posts, I see  (it is clear to anyone)  that a person who composes
and posts this gibberish to the forum is totally illiterate mathematically.

I ask you to take adequate measures from your side.

In my view,  this person/composer deserves to be removed from the forum
immediately  (instantly)  for his / her inability to provide a proper input.

Thank you for your attention.
