@MichaelE2 Yeah, but it seems it’s not just about the toolset; the mathematical space restrictions applied to the individual variables also matter. Consider these four examples (where I’ve made the “Complexes” domain restriction explicit for clarity, even though it’s the default and is thus not necessary):
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 == Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]], {a, c, d}, Reals] vs.
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 == Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]], {a, c, d},
Complexes] vs.
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 ==
Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]] && {a, d, c} \[Element] Reals, {a, d, c},
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 == Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]], {a, c, d}, Reals] vs.
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 == Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]], {a, c, d},
Complexes] vs.
Reduce[-0.1547*d + 11.74 ==
Log[10, a*Exp[-d/c]] && {a, d, c} \[Element] Reals, {a, d, c},
