no analytic solution possible.  y≈1.23066

$$\mathrm{no}\:\mathrm{analytic}\:\mathrm{solution}\:\mathrm{possible}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{y}\approx\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{23066} \\ $$

when trying to understand your  solution to this question i arrived  at this equation...... This means   that i did not really understand  your approach majorly at the  end of the solution. I ll love it if  you shed more light to it sir.    Thanks for always assisting.

i actually understand your step  from the top until the last step  before you got x=1    x^(2(x^2 −1/x^2 )) =2^(2(1−1/x^2 ))     x=1 and 1−(1/x^2 )=0    i dont know how you got the result  x=1

1^p =2^0 =1  as i haved said there is no general  method one can follow blindly. one  has to try and see if error.

$$\mathrm{1}^{\mathrm{p}} =\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{0}} =\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{as}\:\mathrm{i}\:\mathrm{haved}\:\mathrm{said}\:\mathrm{there}\:\mathrm{is}\:\mathrm{no}\:\mathrm{general} \\ $$$$\mathrm{method}\:\mathrm{one}\:\mathrm{can}\:\mathrm{follow}\:\mathrm{blindly}.\:\mathrm{one} \\ $$$$\mathrm{has}\:\mathrm{to}\:\mathrm{try}\:\mathrm{and}\:\mathrm{see}\:\mathrm{if}\:\mathrm{error}. \\ $$
