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
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...
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...
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.

TLA: f(a) + f'(a)(x-a)
Where a is...
