Int(0,a,.3*sin(2*π*x)*(1-1/a),x)=.0191

And haven't had much luck, is there anyway I could do this problem quickly, seems if I use the numerical solver I get nothing for some time.....

The precision (and the time to solve !) of the numeric solver depands on "Number format" (MODE FIX 4 for example for a precision of 4 digits)

Are you sure of your equation (the 1/a part) ?

If your equation is OK, the numerical solver returns results with a guess <> 0 (because of 1/a ?) : a=1.3447... a=2.2067... etc.

EDIT : same problem with guess = 0 on the Prime... and same results...
