It's know that there isn't a general formula for solve the general n-degree equation for $n>4$, but there is any formula to solve the case? $A^x+A=C$ where $A$ is the variable and $A,C$ are positive integers?

I suppose you are looking for roots in $\mathbf C$... What are the possible values of $x$ and $C$ ? – Tom-Tom Feb 07 '14 at 15:14
$$x$$ and $$C$$ can be any value. For example $$A^6+A=66$$, – M159 Feb 07 '14 at 15:18
My question was more general. Can $x$ or $C$ be negative, real or complex valued ? – Tom-Tom Feb 07 '14 at 15:25
Also, just use one $ to put you math equation inline. – Tom-Tom Feb 07 '14 at 15:26
No, the possible values are only integers, with $A,C>0$ – M159 Feb 07 '14 at 15:27
Then you put wrong tags to you question. It should be tagged as diophantine equation or someting related to it. – Tom-Tom Feb 07 '14 at 15:29
