Question 722999: Help please!
Express y as a function of x in 2+log+%2852%2C+y%29+ = 1/3 +log+%2852%2C+x%5E2+%2B1%29+ - x^1/2 - C where C>0 constant.

Express y as a function of x in 2+log+%2852%2C+y%29+ = 1/3 +log+%2852%2C+x%5E2+%2B1%29+ - x^1/2 - C where C>0 constant.
-----------------------
2log52(y) = (1/3)log52(x^2+1) - sqrt(x) - C
---------
2log52(y)-(1/3)log52(x^2+1) = -sqrt(x)-C
----
log62[y^2/(x^2+1)^(1/3)] = -sqrt(x)-C
-----
y^2/(x^2+1)^(1/3) = 52^(-sqrt(x)-C)
----
y^2 = (x^2+1)^(1/3)*52^(-sqrt(x)-C)
----
y = +-sqrt[(x^2+1)^(1/3)*52^(-sqrt(x)-C)
