Solve a simple equation for a unknown indexed by a real number

I have the following equation. f[a,b,Q]=1 - Q*Exp[b] + Exp[a]*(Exp[b]^3 - Exp[b]^4 + 2*Exp[b]^5 - 2*Q*Exp[b]^5 - Q*Exp[b]^6 + Q^2*Exp[b]^7) + Exp[a]^2*(-Exp[b]^9 + Exp[b]^(10)) and I want to solve …

Consistent ordering of Root results from Solve

For higher order bivariate polynomials, if I want to find the roots I'll expect answer using Root[], e.g. from the help pages, In[1]:= Solve[x^5 + 2 x + 1 == 0, x] Out[1]= { {x -> Root[1 + 2 #1 + # …

Invert a transcendental function

I have tried Reduce and Solve in Mathematica, as well as have a long list of tries in Maple, but cannot seem to get anywhere solving the following for V: V^P * (V-1)^Q == c^(P-Q) * X^Q * (V-c^2)^Q, …

Another using Solve output for further calculations

I probably missed a question already posted as this topic seems common, but I looked at several, e.g. Using result of Solve in further calculations and am a little stuck. I didn't understand the use o …

Another using Solve output for further calculations

Much more in the spirit of the question, J.M. had a better answer: In[1]:= sol = y /. {ToRules[ Reduce[x^2 - 3 y^2 + 3 == 0, y, Complexes, Backsubstitution -> True]]} Out[1]= {-(Sqrt[3 + …
