Show (x^3+2x)/(2x+1) < x^2 as x -> infinite
Show (x^3+2x)/(2x+1) < x^2 as x --> infinite Homework Statement Show (x^3+2x)/(2x+1) < x^2 as x --> infinite Homework Equations This is not a formal proof. I just need to reduce the left side of the inequality to the point it is fairly obvious that it is less than x^2 as x-->infinite...- RogerDodgr

Undergrad : Guass's Law and surface integrals
I'm in need of help. I need the formulas for total-electric-flux enclosed for a final exam *tommorow. My teacher (nice guy but total slacker) never did any handouts, and I am not the quickest to catch on when he tried to explain in about 20 minutes the concept of surface integrals. I was just...- RogerDodgr

Given augmented matrix [A|0]: ->RREF ->x=?
Given augmented matrix [A|0]: -->RREF -->x=? I started with: |0 1 0|0| |0-3 1|0| |0 0 2|0| --->RREF---> |0 1 0|0| |0 0 1|0| |0 0 0|0| The RREF is correct according to solution manual, but the solution manual says that the vector x = |1| |0| |0| I think I understand why x_3 and...- RogerDodgr

Linear Algebra, Water Flow Problem
Wow jacobpm64, thanks sincerely,,, This statement was particularly helpful: "notice that we have f_6 and f_7 being a free variable since the last row is completely zero..." Also, knowing that I'm not totally off base gives me confindence to progress forward... I originally started...- RogerDodgr

Linear Algebra: Understanding Spans and Proving Inclusion in Vector Spaces
http://www.sudokupuzzles.net/IMG_0035.jpg Thank you quasar987, I don't know how I could better state what seems obvious. Maybe it should say 'All possible linear combinations...' I won't be including the definition (or my misspelling, the definition was copied from my textbook). Sorry...- RogerDodgr

Solution to 0/0, i.e., dividing by zero
It's not a trick question. I honestly am not sure that I am right; that's why I asked :) Is there a flaw in my logic?- RogerDodgr

Solution to 0/0, i.e., dividing by zero
Homework Statement 0/0=? (This actually came up in a homework assignment). My teacher dismissed it as d.n.e. but I actually believe it has the solution set of 'all real numbers'; it has pertinence to a specific problem in calc III that I find interesting. I have read some contradictory...- RogerDodgr

High School Can You Master Calculus in Just 20 Minutes?
I noticed this a while back and recomended it to some students I know who are currently struggling with calc I. I think it is great for what it is; just a quick overview. It reminded me of several thing I forgot.- RogerDodgr

Jacobi Method; Simple system of equations
I know this is simple, and I am missing something obvious. I'm suposed to use the "jacobi method"; and with each iteration it should be getting closer and closer to the solution (x=2 and y=1, which it is not). Could someone explain what I'm doing wrong, or how to start...- RogerDodgr
