    Simultaneous Equation with 4 variables, can it be don?

    I ended up using Gausian Elemination for the assignment and I got the same values. I know that people in the class have used the substitution method but substituiton is just impracticle and I don't have enough patients. Thanks for all the help and ideas on how to do it Dan

    Simultaneous Equation with 4 variables, can it be don?

    Hey I have just looked on the TI site and found a poly nomial simultaneous equation solver and found these values. Can you tell me if you got the same? I got A=3, B=2, C=2 and D=-1. I dare say the teacher will want me to show working so the only thing I could really do is spend a nice long day...

    Simultaneous Equation with 4 variables, can it be don?

    Hi I am doing integration work in maths c. I have simplified the equation using long division however when I equated the answers, i got 4 simultaneous equations with 4 variables. My equations are: A + C = 5 A + B + 4C + D = 12 -A -B + 4C + 4D = -1 2A + B + 4D = 4 Can this be done?

    Maximizing y=kx³.ln(1/x) with Positive Constant k | Math Homework Help

    Wow it all became so clear, thanks so much for all the help everyone. I found the maximum x value to be x=1/(e^(1/3)). Thanks everyone for helping

    Maximizing y=kx³.ln(1/x) with Positive Constant k | Math Homework Help

    The maximum will be found when the gradient function = 0. I found the gradient function using the product rule as y'=-x²+3x².Ln(1/x). Then when 0=-x²+3x².Ln(1/x) x= 0.7165. How ever it says in terms of e and this is where i get really stuck. I am drawing a blank on this one

    Maximizing y=kx³.ln(1/x) with Positive Constant k | Math Homework Help

    Hi I am new on the forums here. I am having troube with my maths assignment. It says to find the maximum value of y= kx³ . ln(1/x) where k is a positive constant. I am also told to find the value of x, in terms of e. I am really struggling and any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance...
