Hi folks, we are searching all solutions where the function f results null. f[x_] := -7500 * Ceiling[(0.5 * x) / 880] + (5 * x) Solve[{f[x] == 0}, x] As f contains jump discontinuities, we recieved the following error: InverseFunction::"ifun": "Inverse functions are being used. Values may be \ lost for multivalued inverses." Solve::"tdep": "The equations appear to involve the variables to be solved \ for in an essentially non-algebraic way." We would be pleased if anybody could help us. Regards, Philipp Burkert Carsten Siegmund
