Question Number 143208 by Gbenga last updated on 11/Jun/21

3^x +4x−3=x^4   find x

$$\mathrm{3}^{{x}} +\mathrm{4}{x}−\mathrm{3}={x}^{\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$${find}\:{x} \\ $$

you can only approximate  3^x =x^4 −4x+3  f(x)=3^x  is strictly increasing ∀x∈R  g(x)=x^4 −4x+3 has an absolute minimum  at  ((1),(0) )  and is strictly decreasing for x<1  and strictly increasing for x>1  f(0)=1∧g(0)=3 ⇒ we have to search for x>0  f(8)=6561∧g(8)=4067 ⇒ x<8  I get  x_1 ≈.376830  x_2 ≈1.87395  x_3 ≈7.15659

find x in x+e^x +x^4 −4=0

$${find}\:{x}\:{in}\:{x}+{e}^{{x}} +{x}^{\mathrm{4}} −\mathrm{4}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$

there is no standard exact way for  solution! therefore more such   questions make no sense.   you may ask as next  find x in x+e^(−x) +x^4 −4=0  find x in x+sin x+x^4 −4=0  find x in x+cosh x+x^4 −4=0  ......
