Double check your post with your source.
The post does not look right.
If to write your equation literally as it is worded/pronounced in the post, it is
= ,
which is the same as
= .
This equation CAN NOT be solved algebraically.
It only can be solved numerically, using calculators that find zeroes of nonlinear functions.
The zero, found in this way, is x = 5.81725 (approximately).
