How would i go about tranposing this equation so that I end up with a value for x? Please include working. Thankyou
315.414=2πx^2+860.16/x
first, multiply by x and you get
315.414x = 2πx^3 + 860.16
then rearrange in descending order of exponent:
2πx^3 - 315.414x + 860.16 = 0
Now you have to solve a cubic, which is generally not easy. And in this case, I guarantee it is not easy.
You will have to fall back on graphical or numeric methods to arrive at the solution. See
