+log%5E2+%28x%5E5%29=log%5E2%281-5x%29
x%5E5=1-5x
x%5E5%2B5x-1=0
%28x%5E2%2Bx%2B1%29+%28x%5E3%2Bx%5E2%2B1%29+=+0
x=0.199936 ........real solution

x=-1.10447-1.05983%2Ai (assuming a complex-valued logarithm)
x=-1.10447%2B1.05983%2Ai (assuming a complex-valued logarithm)
x=1.0045-1.06095%2Ai (assuming a complex-valued logarithm)
x=-0.631874-0.380869%2Ai (assuming a complex-valued logarithm)
