    What technique of integration to use here?

    hey, this isn't really a homework problem but I have this integral that I can't solve cause i haven't studied techniques of integration. Any suggesstions \int\frac{1}{\sqrt{12x+0.02x^2}}

    Linearizing a parabolic graph of a projectile motion

    Data is kind of confusing man. Why angles. The redbelly is what came to my mind too.

    Differentiating x² + 2xy - 3y² + 16 = 0

    thomas the idea is really simple. if you have y^2 then different as if it was x , you should have 2y. simple right? Now all you have to do is multiply the 2y by dy/dx. Just write 2y . dy/dx and that's the answer. So whenever you different with the letter y, do it as if it was x but just...

    Solving Simple Inequality: \frac {2}{x} < 3

    It just means x either has to be bigger than 2/3 or smaller than 0. Makes sense, for example 1/2 is smaller than 2/3, plug it in and u get 4, which is not smaller than 3. Now try 2 which is bigger than 2/3, u get 1 which is smaller than three. This is why 2/3 > x doesn't make sense. Now...

    Find the equation for a parabola given 3 points

    no it's the classic way of doing things, we do it in high school. Ok, so you have 3 equations: [1]. -2=a + b +c [2]. 10=9a -3b +c [3]. 31= 16a +4b +c Eliminate a by using 9 * [1] - [2] and then 16 * [1] - [3] (-18 = 9a + 9b + 9c) - (10 = 9a - 3b + c) ---> -28 = 12b + 8c [4] (-32 = 16a + 16b...

    Implicit Derivatives - Trigonometry

    The second derivative can be found the same process, just d(whatever is on each other side) by dx. Let's say you have x^3 + y^3 = xy First derivative is : 3x^2 + 3y^2 . dy/dx = y + x . dy/dx Now if everything on left side is g(x) and the right side is n(x). Then just do dg(x) / dx and do dn(x)...

    Implicit Derivatives - Trigonometry

    use leibniz notation d/dx everything. if you d(x^3)/dx , u get 3x^2. The implicit part is differentiating the ys.If you assumme sin (y) = u --> du/dx = d(sin(y))/dx , is that clear? now du/dx = du/dy . dy/dx becuase u is composed of the variable y. so if you do this you'll have du/dx =...

    Solve for P in Simple Equation: p - 10/-5 = p - 1/4

    wait it is just me being tired or that is wrong. Shouldn't it be 1/3 not 1/2(a+b). maybe i didn't real before it.

    The Rule for Finding Limits of Difference of Powers: (a^n - b^n)

    thanks i got it, it's 1000. What is the rule called the (a^n - b^n).

    The Rule for Finding Limits of Difference of Powers: (a^n - b^n)

    lim of x ---> 1 (x^1000)(x+1)/(x^2-1) hahah, lol just kidding. seriously, have no clue where to start.

    The Rule for Finding Limits of Difference of Powers: (a^n - b^n)

    limit of x --> 1 (x^1000 - 1 ) / (x-1)
