Im currently in my second year of college, but am a year out from finishing the requirments for a B.S. in physics. If I keep the 18 hours/semester going I could finish a double major for math as well. When applying to a particle/high energy grad program how much weight would a B.S. in math hold...

I am entering college this week as a Freshman. I am majoring in math but I noticed if I pick my electives right, and minor in Physics ill be just one semester off a 4 year degree in physics when I get the one in math. Are you able to graduate, go back for a semester, and graduate again? how does...

for the function f(x) for x=a to x=b the screen should read sum(seq(f(x),x,a,b,1) you should be able to catalog or 2nd[math] to find the [sum(] and [seq(] operators hope this helps

Thank you! I assumed it had a smaller function because it was in a very low level book. I think it is mean to be entered into a calculator at the last point or be cycled through an approximation algorithm.

This is not homework. I ran across this question in a book store a few minutes ago and can't seem to finish it... R= int(x,0,b S=int(cos(x),0,b for what value of b (a positive constant) does R=S? 1/2x^2,0,b=1/2b^2 sin(x),0,b=sin(b) 1/2b^2=sin(b) Its been a while.. but I should be...

Pi is the number of times a diameter goes into its circles circumfrence... you can never have it perfectly accurate. I have a book which shows it to 10,000 digits. As I understant the most accurate super computer gives it to ~10,200. If you looked at a circle with radius 0.5 meters, the diameter...

Once you find the values of x such that f'(x)=0 you can pick arbitrary points around that value of x to determine if the point is a max/min/neither. You can also plug the value into f''(x); if the number that comes out is <0 you have a maximum, >0 minimum. Does that make sense?

Send a link of the paper?

I am starting college as a freshman this August. I have chosen to go to my Community College for financial and family reasons. I am going for my A.A. degree with the desire to transfer to the state university to major in mathematics. I have college credits, and am scheduled for Calc w/ anal...

In which course did you run into this monster?
