%N Decimal expansion of solution to n/x = x - n for n = 5.
%C n/x = x - n with n = 1 gives the Golden Ratio = 1.6180339887...
%C Equals n + n/(n + n/(n + n/(n + ....))) for n = 5. See also A090388. - _Stanislav Sykora_, Jan 23 2014

%F n/x = x - n ==> x^2 - n*x - n = 0 ==> x = (n + sqrt(n^2 + 4*n)) / 2 (Positive Root) n = 5: x = (5 + sqrt(45))/2 = 5.85410196624968454...
%F Equals (5 + 3*sqrt(5))/2 = 1 + 3*phi = sqrt(5)*(phi)^2, where phi is the golden ratio. - _G. C. Greubel_, Jul 03 2017
%F Equals 2*phi^3 - phi^2. - _Michel Marcus_, Apr 20 2020
%F Minimal polynomial is x^2 - 5x - 5 (this number is an algebraic integer). - _Alonso del Arte_, Apr 20 2020(n).
%F Equals lim_{n->oo} A057088(n+1)/A057088(n) = 1 + 3*phi. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Nov 16 2023
