I define
(%i1) X: Qs * MLSS * (1 + r) / A
(%i2) X = 8.85 * (100 / SSVI)^0.77 * (Qs * r / A)^0.68
(%i3) solve(%i2, A)
Expecting to get A = f(Qs, MLSS, SSVI, r)
Instead I get A on both RHS & LHS, and cannot find a suitable 'simplify'
command to get the equation fully explicit in A.
How do I persuade Maxima to give me a fully explicit solution?
