Instead of getting a formula from k to x, it is better to do z = ln(k), to x. → y = z - z^3/4 + O(z^5) = z / (1 + z^2/4 + O(z^4)) ≈ z/(1+z^2/4) → x = 1/y - 1 = 1/z - 1 + z/4 // rough guess of x, from z = ln(k) For k=1.5, guess x ≈ 1.568 (94 minutes) For k=2.0, guess x ≈ 0.6160 (37 minutes) This estimate matched pretty well. (Mathematica session) Unmatched coefficients (z^5, z^7, z^9) have same sign, and similar size. Code: In[1]:= logk = Log[-Log[1 - y]/Log[1 + y]]; Update: more terms, x in terms in z = ln(k) x = 1/z - 1 + z/4 + z^3/144 - 7/4320*z^5 - 73/3628800*z^7 + 11/1451520*z^9 + ... |
