Given information
Note that given, the equation has exactly one solution.
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Find the approximate value of such that the equation has exactly two solutions.
The following graphs show the different values of of the equation , and the intersecting point of two curves and that has exactly two solutions.
Therefore, the value of is obtained by using the trial and error method.
Observe that from the above graph, we observe that the value for .
