To solve this simple equation numerically you may either use a solve block or the "root" function in one of its two flavors (either provide a range or a guess value).

An1d, no - you can't insert a line break where you like - it must be at an operator (+,-,*..) and the symbolic arrow will still show to the right of it, making for an even uglier display:

You may consider going to the calculation option and check "Use units/constants in symbolic math"

Please attach your worksheet. NOT just a picture. 

 

Success!

Hi,

 

The reactions to the structure are statically determinate.  They can be solved directly without resort to Prime's solve systems.  eg.

Hi,

Yes I know, It is a simple demonstration for students. This is why I am using this method. 

 

Thank you
