Hi. I apologize if this is an unwelcome intrusion, but I need help from folks such as yourselves. I know nothing about calculus, but a friend of mine does. I would like to design a kind of riddle or scavenger hunt in the form of a calculus problem which, when solved, would result in a specific number. I'd like it to have a few variables whose values would also be specific, and could be discovered outside of the problem. Specifically, I'd like the final answer to be 11644, one variable to be 1924, another variable to be 1934, and a third to be 1978.
Since I know nothing about calculus, I don't know for certain how skilled my friend is, but being an undergrad math major, I'd expect at least an intermediate level.
The end result of solving this problem will be my friend receiving a gift, so I ask not so much for myself as for my friend. :) Thank you for your consideration.
