Polynomials

Engineering expressions often take the form
A + B*X^2*exp(C*X) = 0 or
A + B*X + C*X^2 + D*X^3 + E*X^4 = 0
These kinds of expression may have more than one solution.

The following is based on a cue card that can be processed directly in any word processor, using MATHSERV.

For example: FX = "A + B*X^2*exp(C*X) = 0"
where
**** A = 2
**** B = -1
**** C = -.385
You would enter in the f(x) box:
2-x*x*exp(-.385*x)
-2 for xmin, 11 for xmax, 
and -2 and 2 for y and .00001 for tolerance.

Second example: FX = "A + B*X + C*X^2 + D*X^3 + E*X^4 = 0"
where
**** A = 1
**** B = -32
**** C = 160
**** D = -256
**** E = 128
You would enter in the f(x) box:
1-32*x+160*x*x-256*x*x*x+128*x*x*x*x
0 for xmin, 1 for xmax, 
and -1 and 1 for y.
