Is the antiderivative of an even function even? Specifically, given an even function g(x)=g(-x) will the following function be even? Odd?
For constant a>0, r a dummy variable
h(x,t) = Definite Integral [ g(r) dr, FROM x-at TO x+at]
Asking whether or not h(x,t)=h(-x,t)
This is the...
When formally proving trig identities using algebra are you allowed to divide? Ordinarily I wouldn't think twice about this. Sure, the trig function by which you are dividing might take on 0, but not for all angles. We divide by potential zeros all the time.
My advisor was being very coy...
...actually, I think I was confusing myself. The x,y in the definition don't have to be matching up with the x,y from the complex number z. The x,y in the definition correspond to the real and imaginary parts of an arbitrary complex z.Would you plug this into the definition?
real:
x/(x^2+y^2)...
How do you write e^(1/z) in the other form?
z = x+yi
So we should be able to right it using this definition of e^z, no?
e^z = e^x * [cos(y) + i * sin(y)]
I pushed some numbers around the page for a while but I can't get 1/(x+i*y) to split into anything nice. Is there a trick?
I'm in real analysis classes but my calculus is shaky when I hit things that aren't plug and chug. How do you evaluate this integral and why can you ignore the dx differential?
The more theoretical details, it smells like some flavor of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus or Leibniz's Rule...
Hello all,
I did my BS in finance and business management (fluff, I know) in 2007. I worked for three years but starting in 2009 I got bored and took some undergrad classes in math. I had some calculus as an undergrad but I took advanced calculus, real analysis and ODEs over 2009-2010...
I'm studying the Poisson Process (rate R) and I'm hung up on the issue of dependence. This seems like and easy question but I have no background in probability whatsoever.
By definition, the number of events in disjunction time intervals are independent. Okay. Fine. But say we have an...
I had a terrible adjunct professor in ODEs and got little or no theory. I'm not in PDEs and my much better professor just (re)introduced convolutions while generalizing the heat equation to Rn - unfortunately it was not a reintroduction for me.
Later chapters in the book deal with...
Are there "imaginary" numbers other than i?
I'm taking a class in complex analysis and the professor wrote the textbook so I'm getting most of it. There is one elephant in the room though, and I haven't been able to make office hours to clear it up.
