Hi , I was wondering if anyone has solved equations such as:

10x + 5(25-x) = 165

With LABview formula nodes? If so could you point me to an example on how
to set up?

Thanks

This is not a very good use for the formula node, especially if the formula
will (can) change. For general formulas of the same type this would be
impossible.
Now if you wished to solve y = 10x + 5(25-x) for various values of x then the
formula node is appropriate.
The formula node is more useful for setting up general equations and solving.

The above is more in the realm of symbolic solvers which can be done in
Labview
but is pretty intense work.
