<pre wrap="">In Chapter 15 on problem 44 in the Burdge problems, how do you put that equation in the solver? Do you have to put 3.8E-5 - (the division)?</pre>

<font face="serif">Yes. That is the value of K in scientific
notation, so it would go into your solver something like...<br>
<br>
<br>
</font>0 = 3.8E-5 - (2X)^2/(0.0198-X)<br>
<br>
<br>
Your bounds for X have to be {0,0.0198}<br>
