I am troubleshooting a Smath roots() function that won't solve.
I've tried it a number of ways, but all I get are new ways to express the error.
Attached is a screen-capture of the page:

In this case, the roots() function gives an error about the units, however I have confirmed that the units are fine by:
a ) removing the units in Smath to discover a new error ("no real roots" )
b ) re-typing the whole thing into MathCad and getting a solution with the right answer.
This problem came up in another document written in Smath, where it came up with a different error expression "above max allowed positive number".
I cut out and isolated this part in a separate sheet to diagnose the problem, but everything I do just creates different errors.
I'd like to ask for your thoughts on how this can be re-written to ensure Smath can solve it.
I have reviewed the wiki for ideas but nothing jumps out at me.
For those who are curious, here is the Mathcad 13 version that works:
