SUMMARY

The discussion centers on solving mathematical equations involving hyperbolic functions and partial fractions. The first problem involves finding the inverse of the equation y = (2e^t + 3e^-t) / (e^t + 2e^-t), with the correct solution being y = 1/2 ln((2t - 3) / (2 - t)). The second problem requires finding sinh x given cosh x = 4.5, leading to sinh x = sqrt(19.25). The third problem involves expressing (10x^2 + 14x + 3) / (x^3 + 3x^2 - 4) as partial fractions, yielding the correct decomposition. The participants confirm that their answers for the first problem are equivalent through algebraic manipulation.

:mad: 1. Given y= (2e^t + 3e^-t ) / (e^t + 2e^-t)

find inverse of of the equation from above

i did the working out to get

y= ([2t-3] / [2-t]) ^ 1/2

do i have to apply any log laws or anything like that?

2. cosh x = 4.5 find sinh x exactly
i applied the formula
(coshx)^2 - (sinhx)^2 = 1
therefore

- (sinhx)^2 = 1 - (coshx)^2
(sinhx)^2 = -1 + (4.5)^2
(sinhx)^2 = 19.25
sinhx = sqrt 19.25

is that exactly?

3. express as partial fractions

(10x^2 + 14x + 3) / (x^3 + 3x^2 - 4)
i got
[7/(x+2)] - [5/(x+2)^2] + [3/(x-1)]

is that right?

PLEASE REPLY THANKS
 
Physics news on Phys.org
sorry made an error in the 1st question meawn to be
for my solution

y= 1/2 ln ([2t-3] / [2 - t])

not this
y= ([2t-3] / [2-t]) ^ 1/2
 
[tex] y = \frac{{2e^t + 3e^{ - t} }}{{e^t + 2e^{ - t} }}[/tex]

Interchange y and t(it isn't necessary to do that but I prefer to).

[tex] t = \frac{{2e^y + 3e^{ - y} }}{{e^y + 2e^{ - y} }}[/tex]

[tex] t = \frac{{\frac{{2e^{2y} + 3}}{{e^y }}}}{{\frac{{e^{2y} + 2}}{{e^y }}}}[/tex]

[tex] t = \frac{{2e^{2y} + 3}}{{e^{2y} + 2}}[/tex]

[tex] te^{2y} + 2t = 2e^{2y} + 3[/tex]

[tex] \left( {t - 2} \right)e^{2y} = 3 - 2t[/tex]

[tex] e^{2y} = \frac{{3 - 2t}}{{\left( {t - 2} \right)}}[/tex]

[tex] y = \log _e \left( {\sqrt {\frac{{3 - 2t}}{{t - 2}}} } \right)[/tex]

Edit: Our answers for the first one are equivalent. To convert mine to yours just multiply the numerator and the denominator of the log argument by negative one and get rid of the square root by placing a factor of (1/2) in front of the log.
