Can't finish equation solving step :p area between functions
My gosh, I didn't even notice that (m/2)(m^2) simplified to 1/2m^3. I feel so stupid now! Thank you :) I've been trying to solve it keeping the three different powers of m- franklingroye

Can't finish equation solving step :p area between functions
Homework Statement The two functions are x2 and mx, where m is a positive constant. I'm asked to find the value for m where the region enclosed between the two equations in the first quadrant is equal to 8. Homework Equations n/a The Attempt at a Solution Since m is a constant...- franklingroye

Tangent line approximation with sinx/x + siny/y = C
I don't get what's going on here, using my calculator to simply plug in pi/3 and pi/4 for x/y in your derivative I end up with 0.15257. ,-,- franklingroye

Tangent line approximation with sinx/x + siny/y = C
Goodness, I can't believe I managed to mess up with f(x) haha. I'm not sure how to really get y' out of this is the issue I am having. If I leave it as-is instead of changing it to siny*y-1: ((x)(cosx) – sinx)/x2 + y'((y)(cosx) – siny)/y2 ((x)(cosx) – sinx)/x2 = -y'((y)(cosy) – siny)/y2...- franklingroye

Tangent line approximation with sinx/x + siny/y = C
Homework Statement Suppose the point (pi/3, pi/4) is on the curve sinx/x + siny/y = C, where C is a constant. Use the tangent line approximation to find the y-coordinate of the point on the curve with x-coordinate pi/3 + pi/180. Homework Equations TLA: f(a) + f'(a)(x-a) Where a is...- franklingroye
