    Could people please do my survey??

    17, HSC year, male no, no, EDIT[maybe... finding an example] 3. Just search around in the non-school forum for agro threads. Check out a thread I created called the Anti-Club Club which was rather ill received :p. I had predicted that there would be a negative reaction, the unfortunate...

    What's the hardest part of this course?

    I still have mine too. The guys who created gumby were on crack. Go here and check out the videos titled "clay peacock" http://www.gumbyworld.com/gumbysgalaxy/video/galasia.html . I dunno if they're satanic or conformist or what... but they scare me.

    What's the hardest part of this course?

    Simpsons rule when you have a lot of strips. There is always something that gets miscalculated. Integration makes the job so much easier...

    Proof that 1+1=2

    Thanks to Descartes we have the cartesian plane and the cartesian self.

    odd or even

    If it's an even function then f(x) = f(-x) f(x) = 1/(x<sup>2</sup>+4) f(-x) = 1/((-x)<sup>2</sup>+4) = 1/( x<sup>2</sup>+4) hence f(x) = f(-x) and f(x) = 1/(x<sup>2</sup>+4) is an even function

    haha, yeah that's what I figured.

    integration

    I think you probably should have done it the other way round. How did you combine the (3\2&int; x<sup>2</sup>e<sup>3x</sup> dx) term with the (&int;xe<sup>3x</sup>dx) term? Anyhow, using the other way &int; xe<sup>3x</sup>dx let u=x and dv/dx = e<sup>3x</sup> du/dx=1 and v =...

    no problem, I think the gist of 46 is back there somewhere as well. This thread has become quite chaotic.

    Integration Questions

    yeah man, since you're using int. by parts: &int; u'v = uv - &int; uv' where u' = cosx and v=cos<sup>n-1</sup>x you have to integrate cosx which = sinx and differentiate cos<sup>n-1</sup>x which = (n-1)cos<sup>n-2</sup>x(-sinx) combine these and you get [- &int; uv'] = (n-1) &int...

    46. use integration by parts: &int; u'v = uv - &int; uv' where u' = sinxcos<sup>2</sup>x and v=sin<sup>n-1</sup>x When integrating sinxcos<sup>2</sup>x use the substitution u= cosx See if you can approach the form I<sub>n</sub> = (n-1)/3.I<sub>n-2</sub> - (n-1)/3.I<sub>n</sub>

    I think it should be (positive) (n-1) &int; cos<sup>n-2</sup>xsin<sup>2</sup>xdx

    For 48. Integration by parts: &int; u'v = uv - &int; uv' where u' = cosx and v=cos<sup>n-1</sup>x Remember the identity sin<sup>2</sup>x = 1 - cos<sup>2</sup>x and don't hesitate to rearange I<sub>n</sub> and I<sub>n-2</sub> terms

    Integration Questions

    49. Have a go at substitutions like (u=&pi;/2 - x) or (u = x - &pi;/2) and see how it works out. Keep in mind that [-a --->a]&int;f(x)dx = - [a --->-a] &int;f(x)dx and vice versa

    47. I<sub>n</sub> = [0-->&pi;/2] &int; x<sup>n</sup>sinxdx do the &int;u'v = uv -&int; uv' where u'=sinx and v=x<sup>n</sup> I<sub>n</sub> = [-x<sup>n</sup>cosx]{between 0-->&pi;/2} + n&int;x<sup>n-1</sup>cosx dx = [0-->&pi;/2] n&int;x<sup>n-1</sup>cosx dx then use the same process...

    Haha interesting timing, I did all of those yesterday. I'll write up what I can be bothered to do, for the most part I'll try and just give you hints because it's best if you can try and do them yourself. Give me 20 mins or so.

    18. If I<sub>n</sub> = [1-->e] &int; (lnx)<sup>n</sup>dx, show that I<sub>n</sub> = e - I<sub>n-1</sub> I<sub>n</sub> = &int; (lnx)<sup>n</sup>dx = &int; 1.(lnx)<sup>n</sup>dx so use integration by parts where: &int;u'v = uv - &int;uv' u' = 1 -------> u = x v = (lnx)<sup>n</sup>=...

    Trig Functions stuf

    Yup, then geustimate, bisect intervals, use newton's method, whatever you need to do to get you estimation to the rigthnumber of d.p's.
