Let f(x)=eπxπ+πexe+ee+ππxeπ.
Thus, limxe+f(x)=+
and limxπf(x)=.
But f is continuous on (e,π), which says that there is a root of the equation on (e,π).
By the same way we can obtain that there is a root on (π,e+π).
But, f(x)=0 is a quadratic equation...
Another way.
Rewrite our equation in the form g(x)=0, where
g(x)=eπ(xe)(xeπ)+πe(xπ)(xeπ)+(eπ+ππ)(xe)(xπ).
Now, check g(e), g(π) and g(e+π).
Easy to see that g(e)>0,g(π)<0 and g(e+π)>0.
