let t=(√x)>0  2^t =t^2   2^(t/2) =t  e^((ln 2 t)/2) =t  −((ln 2)/2)=−((ln 2 t)/2) e^(−((ln 2 t)/2))   ⇒−((ln 2 t)/2)=W(−((ln 2)/2))  ⇒t=−(2/(ln 2)) W(−((ln 2)/2))  ⇒x=t^2 =[−(2/(ln 2)) W(−((ln 2)/2))]^2 = { (((−((−2×1.3863)/(ln 2)))^2 =16)),(((−((−2×0.6931)/(ln 2)))^2 =4)) :}

You are welcome sir!  what if the question is:  2^x =x^2   find x.

$${You}\:{are}\:{welcome}\:{sir}! \\ $$$${what}\:{if}\:{the}\:{question}\:{is}: \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}^{{x}} ={x}^{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$${find}\:{x}. \\ $$

   x^2  = 2^x   (√x^2 ) = (√2^x )   x = ± 2^(x/2)    x = ± e^((x/2)ln2 )      xe^(−(x/2)ln2) = ± 1    −(x/2)ln2 e^(− (x/2)ln2)  = −(±((ln 2)/2))    x = −(2/(ln 2))W(±((ln 2)/2))    Sir i can^′ t compute further  No calculator..  Plzz verify

$$\:\:\:{x}^{\mathrm{2}} \:=\:\mathrm{2}^{{x}} \\ $$$$\sqrt{{x}^{\mathrm{2}} }\:=\:\sqrt{\mathrm{2}^{{x}} } \\ $$$$\:{x}\:=\:\pm\:\mathrm{2}^{\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{2}}} \\ $$$$\:{x}\:=\:\pm\:{e}^{\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{ln2}\:} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$\:{xe}^{−\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{ln2}} =\:\pm\:\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$ \\ $$$$−\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{ln2}\:{e}^{−\:\frac{{x}}{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{ln2}} \:=\:−\left(\pm\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${x}\:=\:−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{2}}{W}\left(\pm\frac{\mathrm{ln}\:\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{2}}\right) \\ $$$$ \\ $$$${Sir}\:{i}\:{can}^{'} {t}\:{compute}\:{further} \\ $$$${No}\:{calculator}.. \\ $$$${Plzz}\:{verify} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

absolutely correct!  W(((ln 2)/2)) has one value (0.2657),  W(−((ln 2)/2)) has two values (see above),  so totally there are three solutions   for x.
