e%5E%28-2ln%28x%29%29=x%2F27
1%2Fx%5E2=x%2F27
x%5E3%2F27=1
x%5E3-27=0
%28x-3%29%28x%5E2%2B3x%2B9%29=0
One real solution:
x-3=0
x=3
Two complex solutions:
x%5E2%2B3x%2B9%2F4%2B9=9%2F4
%28x%2B3%2F2%29%5E2=9%2F4-36%2F4
%28x%2B3%2F2%29%5E2=-27%2F4
x%2B3%2F2=0+%2B-+%283%2F2%29sqrt%283%29
x=-3%2F2+%2B-+%283%2F2%29sqrt%283%29
