TIB: TI-89 Solve question




For some reason I when I try to solve this equation:

5=12*(1-e^((-1.3E-6)/x))

For x, using "solve(5=12*(1-e^((-1.3E-6)/x)),x)"
I get x = 0

I think the real answer is something like x = 2.4E-6
I'm in float 12 mode; I get x = 0 for auto or approx. (exact gives an
overflow error)

Any ideas?
