MATLAB: Help me get a numeric answer please. I have a symbolic answer for x but just want a number. Conversion with double(x) doesn’t work??

sym double

The code I type is:
evalin(symengine,… ['numeric::solve(tan(pi*x/180)'… '+tan(((4000-2672)/2672)*pi*x/180)==626/(1300))'])
I get the answer:
ans =
[x == 17.971555160137556933421078470028]
I type:
 double(x)
I get the answer:
Error in MuPAD command: DOUBLE cannot convert the input expression into a double array.
If the input expression contains a symbolic variable, use the VPA function instead.
Error in sym/double (line 710) Xstr = mupadmex('symobj::double', S.s, 0);

Best Answer

a=evalin(symengine,...
   ['numeric::solve(tan(pi*x/180)'...
         '+tan(((4000-2672)/2672)*pi*x/180)==626/(1300))'])
out=double(solve(a))
