Question Number 58899 by Tawa1 last updated on 01/May/19
Solve for  x:     x^(x^x   ) =  729
$$\boldsymbol{\mathrm{S}}\mathrm{olve}\:\mathrm{for}\:\:\mathrm{x}:\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{x}} \:\:} =\:\:\mathrm{729} \\ $$

you can′t solve this using Lambert function.  but you can solve x^x^x^x   =729.

Ohh, why it cannot work sir,  and please show me the   x^x^x^x     =  729

(x^x )^x^x  =a  let t=x^x   ⇒t^t =a  ⇒t=((ln a)/(W(ln a)))  ⇒x^x =((ln a)/(W(ln a)))=b  ⇒x=((ln b)/(W(ln b)))=((ln [((ln a)/(W(ln a)))])/(W{ln [((ln a)/(W(ln a)))]}))
$$\left({x}^{{x}} \right)^{{x}^{{x}} } ={a} \\ $$$${let}\:{t}={x}^{{x}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{t}^{{t}} ={a} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{t}=\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:{a}}{{W}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:{a}\right)} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}^{{x}} =\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:{a}}{{W}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:{a}\right)}={b} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{x}=\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:{b}}{{W}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:{b}\right)}=\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:\left[\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:{a}}{{W}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:{a}\right)}\right]}{{W}\left\{\mathrm{ln}\:\left[\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:{a}}{{W}\left(\mathrm{ln}\:{a}\right)}\right]\right\}} \\ $$

God bless you sir.

x^x^x  =x^((x^x )) =729  approximation leads to  x≈2.364994  (x^x )^x =x^((x^2 )) =729 ⇒ x≈2.617397
$${x}^{{x}^{{x}} } ={x}^{\left({x}^{{x}} \right)} =\mathrm{729} \\ $$$$\mathrm{approximation}\:\mathrm{leads}\:\mathrm{to} \\ $$$${x}\approx\mathrm{2}.\mathrm{364994} \\ $$$$\left({x}^{{x}} \right)^{{x}} ={x}^{\left({x}^{\mathrm{2}} \right)} =\mathrm{729}\:\Rightarrow\:{x}\approx\mathrm{2}.\mathrm{617397} \\ $$

But different answer sir.     x^(x^x  )  ≠  x^x^2
$$\mathrm{But}\:\mathrm{different}\:\mathrm{answer}\:\mathrm{sir}.\:\:\:\:\:\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{x}} \:} \:\neq\:\:\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{x}^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$

And any workings sir

I know x^x^x  ≠x^x^2   but I wasn′t 100% sure if  you know this too because it doesn′t seem  to be common knowledge.  I approximated with an electronic calculator  so I can′t show any workings  I calculated f(x)=x^x^x  −729 starting with  f(2)=−713  f(3)=7.62×10^(12)   f(2.5)=7831.31...  f(2.1)=−695.08...  f(2.2)=−641.82...  f(2.3)=−442.76...  f(2.4)=554.40...  f(2.35)=−148.87...  f(2.36)=−54.00...  f(2.37)=59.19...  f(2.365)=.067773...  f(2.364)=−11.13...  f(2.3645)=−5.55...  and so on
