A question about microsoft excel
I need help from someone who is familiar with excel.
Here is the equation:
And here is the spreadsheet:
The bluff size is the unknown, so x.
How can I implement this equation?

What is x? and what is pot size? Just use wolframalpha
Alternatively,
F = fold %
P = pot size
x = F * (x + P)
x = F*x + F*P
-F*P = F*x - x
-F*P = (F-1)*x
(-F*P)/(F-1) = x
x = (-F*P)/(F-1)
Following up on Brokenstar's response, here is a sample of the Excel application of his solution formula:
Instead of cell references like D3 you can use Excel's Name Manager to use the actual variable names, e.g. Pot

(-F*P)/(F-1) = x
x = (-F*P)/(F-1)
Or equivalently if you don’t like negative signs (and it might make the formula easier to use without making typos)
X = (F*P)/(1-F). For Excel just type = followed by that formula with the F and P replaced by the appropriate cell reference.

Yes, this is better, thanks.
