You asked:

Solve the equation \(1 - {\left( 1 + r \right)}^{-4} = 3.6667\) for the variable \(r\).

MathBot Answer:

The solutions are given by the formula: \[r = \left(-1 + \frac{10 \sqrt{3} \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \cos{\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \frac{\pi k}{2} \right)}}{8889}\right) + \frac{10 \sqrt{3} \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sin{\left(\frac{\pi}{4} + \frac{\pi k}{2} \right)}}{8889} i\] where \(k\) is an integer in \(0 \le k < 4\).

There are \(0\) real solutions.

There are \(4\) solutions with nonzero imaginary part.


The are no real solutions.


Solutions with nonzero imaginary part: \[\begin{aligned}r &= -1 + \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6}}{8889} + \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6} i}{8889} \\&\approx -0.44666077 + 0.55333923 i\\r &= -1 - \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6}}{8889} + \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6} i}{8889} \\&\approx -1.5533392 + 0.55333923 i\\r &= -1 - \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6}}{8889} - \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6} i}{8889} \\&\approx -1.5533392 -0.55333923 i\\r &= -1 + \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6}}{8889} - \frac{5 \cdot 2963^{\frac{3}{4}} \sqrt{6} i}{8889} \\&\approx -0.44666077 -0.55333923 i\end{aligned}\]


\(i\) is the imaginary unit, defined as \(i^2 = -1\).
