    Re: On a scale of 0 to 10? —David Eaton
   (...) aHA! Much oblige! I now get (approx): s = 5.39 * e^(2.625q) - 0.39 Whew. Of course, now here's a totally different question. In order to get that point, I cheated. I couldn't solve: e^(B/4) + e^(-B) = 2 using algebra, but using other means, I (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
   
        Re: On a scale of 0 to 10? —John Riley
   (...) I don't see an easy way to do this. I tried substituting x=e^B Then I get a polynomial of degree 5. Only the positive roots lead to real values of B. (since e^any real number > 0) This is solvable, but very difficult to do by hand, especially (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
