Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the derivation of a specific mathematical function. Participants are seeking assistance in verifying the correctness of a derivation, with a focus on the methods used and the final result obtained.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related, Mathematical reasoning

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests help in deriving a function but does not provide their own answer, leading to a call for more information to facilitate assistance.
  • Another participant emphasizes the importance of sharing the attempted solution to identify potential errors in the derivation process.
  • A third participant acknowledges the complexity of the function and mentions they have managed to solve it, indicating they will share the solution later.
  • A later post presents a solution derived using Mathematica, although it is unclear if this is the same as the original question or if it is correct.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus on the correctness of the derivation, as the original poster has not shared their answer, and the provided Mathematica solution has not been verified by others.

Contextual Notes

The discussion lacks specific details about the original function being derived, and there are no clear assumptions or definitions provided that could clarify the context of the derivation.

I don't see how we can tell you whether you are right or wrong if you don't tell us what answer you got! (Even better, show us what you did so if it is wrong we can explain where you went wrong.)


There are some mean-spirited people who might suspect that people who ask for the correct answer so they can "see if my answer is correct" haven't actually done anything and just want someone to give them the answer!
 
What you are saying is totally true, be adviced that the function is tideous and writing the solution(s) in equation 3.0 takes quite a time. I can gladly announce that i finally managed to solve it and will state the solution later on. Thanks anyway
 
Here is the answer copied from mathematica:

[tex]\frac{e^{Sin(x)}(x-1)^6(x^2 +3)^4 (x^6 +6x^5 -18x^4 +46x^3 +14x^2 + 14x + 21x + Cos(x)(x^7 -x^6 +4x^5 -4x^4 +4x^3 -4x^2 +3x -3)}{(x^4 + x^2 + 1 )^5}[/tex]
