⇔ e^(xln3) =10−3x  ⇔ (10−3x)e^(−xln3) =1  mulitiply both sides by ((ln3)/3)e^((10ln3)/3)   ⇔ (((10ln3)/3)−xln3)e^(((10ln3)/3)−xln3) =((ln3)/3)e^((10ln3)/3)   ⇔ W((((10ln3)/3)−xln3)e^(((10ln3)/3)−xln3) )=W(((ln3)/3)e^((10ln3)/3) )  ⇔ ((10ln3)/3)−xln3=W(((ln3)/3)×3^((10)/3) )  ⇒ x=((10)/3)−((W(3^(7/3) ln3))/(ln3))

$$\Leftrightarrow\:\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{xln3}} =\mathrm{10}−\mathrm{3x} \\ $$$$\Leftrightarrow\:\left(\mathrm{10}−\mathrm{3x}\right)\mathrm{e}^{−\mathrm{xln3}} =\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{mulitiply}\:\mathrm{both}\:\mathrm{sides}\:\mathrm{by}\:\frac{\mathrm{ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$$$\Leftrightarrow\:\left(\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{xln3}\right)\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{xln3}} =\frac{\mathrm{ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}} \\ $$$$\Leftrightarrow\:\mathrm{W}\left(\left(\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{xln3}\right)\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{xln3}} \right)=\mathrm{W}\left(\frac{\mathrm{ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{e}^{\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}} \right) \\ $$$$\Leftrightarrow\:\frac{\mathrm{10ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}−\mathrm{xln3}=\mathrm{W}\left(\frac{\mathrm{ln3}}{\mathrm{3}}×\mathrm{3}^{\frac{\mathrm{10}}{\mathrm{3}}} \right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{x}=\frac{\mathrm{10}}{\mathrm{3}}−\frac{\mathrm{W}\left(\mathrm{3}^{\frac{\mathrm{7}}{\mathrm{3}}} \mathrm{ln3}\right)}{\mathrm{ln3}} \\ $$

let f(x)=3^x +3x−10      f ′(x)=3^x ln3+3  from nri   let the initial guess (x_0 )=0  x_1 =x_0 −((f(x))/(f ′(x)))   x ≈1.534...

$${let}\:{f}\left({x}\right)=\mathrm{3}^{{x}} +\mathrm{3}{x}−\mathrm{10} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:{f}\:'\left({x}\right)=\mathrm{3}^{{x}} {ln}\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{3} \\ $$$${from}\:{nri}\: \\ $$$${let}\:{the}\:{initial}\:{guess}\:\left({x}_{\mathrm{0}} \right)=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$${x}_{\mathrm{1}} ={x}_{\mathrm{0}} −\frac{{f}\left({x}\right)}{{f}\:'\left({x}\right)} \\ $$$$\:{x}\:\approx\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{534}... \\ $$$$ \\ $$
