This discussion board is a place to discuss our Daily Challenges and the math and science
related to those challenges. Explanations are more than just a solution — they should
explain the steps and thinking strategies that you used to obtain the solution. Comments
should further the discussion of math and science.
When posting on Brilliant:
Use the emojis to react to an explanation, whether you're congratulating a job well done , or just really confused .
Ask specific questions about the challenge or the steps in somebody's explanation. Well-posed questions can add a lot to the discussion, but posting "I don't understand!" doesn't help anyone.
Try to contribute something new to the discussion, whether it is an extension, generalization or other idea related to the challenge.
Stay on topic — we're all here to learn more about math and science, not to hear about your favorite get-rich-quick scheme or current world events.

This Solution Only for Real Solution
Suppose that:
log5(x(82−5x8=t
sin∣2z∣=q
Obtained
a2+aq+t=0
Using formula abc obtained:
a=2−q+q2−4t
Or:
a=2−q−q2−4t
From:
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=y%3Dlog_5%28%28x^8+%282-5x^8%29%29^%281%2F8%29%29
tmax=−81
Now, check maximum q
From equation 2 are obtained
1. 2−pi≤z≤2pi
2. (y2−1)cos2z−ysin2z+1=0
ycosz=sinz
tanz=y,
so we obtain solution y=tanz, where ∣z∣≤2π
Now, for real solution:
froma2+qa+t first equation we obtain:
D≥0
q2−4t≥0
And we get maksimum t=8−1 from wolframalfa
So,
q2−4t, always definit positif for 0<x<8(52)
Solution:
y=tanz
−2π≤z≤2π
0<x<8(52)
And
root of
a2+aq+t=0
I think it’s not closed problem
:)
Hmmmm...

That's an ugly equation!

Yes, I think like that... very ugly :(
