AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on solving three mathematical problems involving inverse functions, hyperbolic functions, and partial fractions. The first problem requires finding the inverse of the equation y = (2e^t + 3e^-t) / (e^t + 2e^-t), with a correction made to the initial solution involving logarithmic expressions. The second problem involves calculating sinh x given cosh x = 4.5, with the participant questioning whether their result of sinh x = sqrt(19.25) is exact. The third problem asks for the expression of a polynomial as partial fractions, with a proposed solution that appears to be correct. The participant acknowledges that their answers for the first problem are equivalent, clarifying the relationship between their solutions.

:mad: 1. Given y= (2e^t + 3e^-t ) / (e^t + 2e^-t)

find inverse of of the equation from above

i did the working out to get

y= ([2t-3] / [2-t]) ^ 1/2

do i have to apply any log laws or anything like that?

2. cosh x = 4.5 find sinh x exactly
i applied the formula
(coshx)^2 - (sinhx)^2 = 1
therefore

- (sinhx)^2 = 1 - (coshx)^2
(sinhx)^2 = -1 + (4.5)^2
(sinhx)^2 = 19.25
sinhx = sqrt 19.25

is that exactly?

3. express as partial fractions

(10x^2 + 14x + 3) / (x^3 + 3x^2 - 4)
i got
[7/(x+2)] - [5/(x+2)^2] + [3/(x-1)]

is that right?

PLEASE REPLY THANKS

sorry made an error in the 1st question meawn to be
for my solution

y= 1/2 ln ([2t-3] / [2 - t])

not this
y= ([2t-3] / [2-t]) ^ 1/2
 
<br /> y = \frac{{2e^t + 3e^{ - t} }}{{e^t + 2e^{ - t} }}<br />

Interchange y and t(it isn't necessary to do that but I prefer to).

<br /> t = \frac{{2e^y + 3e^{ - y} }}{{e^y + 2e^{ - y} }}<br />

<br /> t = \frac{{\frac{{2e^{2y} + 3}}{{e^y }}}}{{\frac{{e^{2y} + 2}}{{e^y }}}}<br />

<br /> t = \frac{{2e^{2y} + 3}}{{e^{2y} + 2}}<br />

<br /> te^{2y} + 2t = 2e^{2y} + 3<br />

<br /> \left( {t - 2} \right)e^{2y} = 3 - 2t<br />

<br /> e^{2y} = \frac{{3 - 2t}}{{\left( {t - 2} \right)}}<br />

<br /> y = \log _e \left( {\sqrt {\frac{{3 - 2t}}{{t - 2}}} } \right)<br />

Edit: Our answers for the first one are equivalent. To convert mine to yours just multiply the numerator and the denominator of the log argument by negative one and get rid of the square root by placing a factor of (1/2) in front of the log.

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...
Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'
In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'
Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
