Why is this integral problem wrong?
Yes that makes perfect sense, I just didn't know what the constants were for each, but now it looks perfect. But I still don't know how you figure out which domain it's valid over, I'll re-do the problem and play with it to see if I can find that out for myself. (other than just graphing and...- i2c

Why is this integral problem wrong?
Oh right I threw a 1/3 in there by mistake because I was thinking of it like arctan(x), how you do 1/a in front, ok so now my final answer is as follows 3arcsin(\frac{\sqrt{6x-x^2}}{3}) However that is not correct, I can see if you split it between [0,3] and [3,6] and phase shifted each one up...- i2c

Why is this integral problem wrong?
Yes I read your posts, but where did I go wrong? Where did I lose that factor of 3?- i2c

Why is this integral problem wrong?
But when I graph my solution and the calculator solution I get 2 completely different graphs, not just a C difference, so where is my problem?- i2c

Why is this integral problem wrong?
Yes it is wrong. I copied and pasted both my answer and the calculator answer into Y= and graphed them, and it graphed 2 separate graphs which were not different by just a constant (i.e. a phase shift up or down) Also, when I plug in my answer into my calculator and take the derivative of...- i2c

1. Make sure you're in Function mode, (i.e. not Polar or Sequence, etc) 2. If that doesn't work, make sure everything you want to keep (like programs/functions, etc) are archived, and press 2nd+On+Left+Right at the same time, it will reset your calculator back to stock, then it should work!- i2c

try this factor(2x^2+17*x*y+y^2) xy doesn't mean x*y (it does to you and me but not to the 89)- i2c

Graduate Challenging Math Problem: Can You Solve This Confusing Integral?
Yes, except it's ln(sqrt(i root(-1))) Yes I did, and sorry about the errors I don't *really* know what I'm doing. :) -

Graduate Challenging Math Problem: Can You Solve This Confusing Integral?
It's supposed to be perplexing. It's a sigma, on top, instead of being a number like 32 or infinity, it's a number but you have to solve the limit to find the number. The middle equation is just finding the fifth derivative of the equation. (Very easy it's just a polynomial) and then the bottom... -

Graduate Challenging Math Problem: Can You Solve This Confusing Integral?
Yes Phi is just a constant. What branch of the complex logarithm? Um, I don't know what that means, (I'm only going to be in AP Calculus next year :)) But I can hint to you that e^(i*pi) = -1 rearranged with a ln will give you what I'm looking for. (I think a scientific calculator *should* do...
