Solve numerical equation with Y at both sides

Hi all,
I have a general equation I would like to solve. However, it contains the dependent variable Y on both sides.
The eqaution is: Y/Y_0 = B * (1 + x*Y/D)^0.5 * (1-x)^alpha
Where x is the independent variable,
and Y_0, B, D and alpha are constants. What would be the most appropriate function in Matlab for this particular problem?
Thanks,
Ron

You can use symbolic package. Something like this:
syms Y_0 Y B x Y D alpha
eqn = Y/Y_0 - B * (1 + x*Y/D)^0.5 * (1-x)^alpha==0 ;
s = solve(eqn,Y)

A numeric approach:
Y_0 = 3; % Define Constants
B = 5;
D = 7;
alpha = 11;
x = linspace(0, 0.9, 10);
Yfcn = @(Y,x) B * sqrt(1 + x*Y/D) .* (1-x).^alpha - Y/Y_0; % Use Element-Wise Operations
for k = 1:numel(x)
Y(k) = fzero(@(Y)Yfcn(Y,x(k)), 0.1);
end
figure
plot(x, Y)

Your equation can also be expressed as a quadratic in Y
![](https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/uploaded_files/350342/image.jpeg)
which could be solved using roots (for specified values of x).
You would need to check that the solutions were consistent with the original equation.
