Let a * b = a + sqrt(b + sqrt(b + sqrt(b + ...))). If 7 * g = 19, find the value of g.
Let a * b = a + sqrt(b + sqrt(b + sqrt(b + ...))). If 7 * g = 19, find the value of g.
Never mind all that square root stuff.
Just look at the last sentence: If 7 * g = 19, find the value of g.
Divide both sides by 7: g = 19/7 = 2.714
Is all that square root stuff a deliberate misdirection?
Could it be that the problem was copied incorrectly?
Something else that I'm not getting?
