Hi, I am having trouble with the solve function in that when I am using it to solve for a variable that is expressed implicitly, my calculator freezes. It says busy on the bottom left hand side. Any ideas as to what I can do to fix this? Here is an example of the equation that I am using:

solve(3.3766=((y-sin(y))*(9/8 )^(5/3)*(1/(y*1.5))^(2/3)),y)

Thanks

Either the equation is to hard for the calculator to solve or you didn't give it enough time. If you give up on it, just press [on] and it should stop trying to solve the equation.
