question is Use fzero to find the largest x-value where ex+1 meets cos(5x). Use a nearby sensible integer value of your choice.
Code that I have: fzero('exp^(x+1)==cos(5*x)',10)
error: Error using fzero (line 289) FZERO cannot continue because user-supplied expression ==> exp^(x+1)==cos(5*x) failed with the error below.
Error in inline expression ==> exp^(x+1)==cos(5*x)
Not enough input arguments.
Error in project1 (line 31) p16=fzero('exp^(x+1)==cos(5*x)',10)

Bradley, use
sol = fzero(@(x) exp(x+1)-cos(5*x),10)
sol =
