Calculus

The branch of mathematics that deals with the study of continuously changing quantities, with the use of limits and the differentiation and integration of functions of one or more variables, is called Calculus. Calculus analyzes aspects of change in processes or systems that can be modeled by functions. The English physicist, Isaac Newton, and the German mathematician, G. W. Leibniz, working independently, developed calculus during the 17th century.

How long does it take an ice cube to melt?

What my people tell me is that, on a plastic lid it last about 1 hr. and 42 minutes.
That depends on the volume of the ice cube, the surface area (determined by the shape), how much heat you have available and in what form.

What is the cube root of 26?

To find the CUBE root , we note that 27 is 3^(3) . So '3' is the cube root of '27'.

Also 8 = 2^(3) . so '2' is the cube root of '8'.

So the cube root of 26 is between '2' & '3'.

Since it is very close to '3' ; (by 26 & 27) they we can try 2.9^3

2.9^(3) = 24.389 (2.9 is too low) So try 2.95

2.95^(3) = 25.67.. ( Still too low) Try 2.975

2.975^(3) = 26.333 .. ( Now too high) So try 2.97

2.97^(3) = 26.198 ( Too high Try 2.968

2.968^(3) = 26.145... (Too high ; try 2.965

2.965^(3) = 26.065... (Too high : try 2.964

2.964^(3) = 26.0396 (Too high )

You keep trying like this. Until you find the root to the required number of decimal places.

However on the calculator 26^(1/3) = 2.962496068....

What is the range of the function y 2sin x?

y = 2sin(x)?

If that's your function, well we know that sin(x) oscillates between y = 1 and y = -1, but in our case we have double that from 2sin(x), so our range is -2 to 2.

What is y cubed minus two y squared plus 4 y?

y^(3) - 2y^(2) + 4y

Factor out 'y'

Hence y(y^2 - 2y + 4)

This will not factor any further.

What are the exact solutions of x2 equals 5x plus 2?

x^(2) = 5x + 2

x^(2) - 5x - 2 = 0

This does NOT factor so apply the Quadratic Eq;n

x = { - - 5 +/- sqrt[(-5)^2 - 4(1)(-2) }} / 2(1)

x = { 5 +/- sqrt[25 + 8]} / 2

x = { 5 +/- sqrt(33)} / 2

x= { 5 +/- 5.7445... } / 2

x = 10.7445... / 2 = 5.37228....

&

x = -0.7445626... / 2 = -0.37228...

Does sine 40 equal sin 20?

NO!!!

Sine40 = Cosine50 = 0.64278...

Sin30 = Cos 60 = 0.5

Sin 0 = Cos 90 = 0

Sin 90 = Cos 0 = 1

From Latin the word 'Sine' means 'curve'. Cosine means 'Complimentary Sine' or Complimentary curve'.

The 'awkward' decimal numbers are based on a the radius of a circle, that radius being the hypotenuse of a right- triangle based at the circles origin/centre.

Find the value or values of y in the quadratic equation y to the second power plus 4y plus 4 equals 7?

y^2 + 4y + 4 = 7

Hence

y^2 + 4y -3 = 0

Apply the Quadratic Eq'n

y = { - 4 +/- sqrt[(4)^(2) - 4(1)(-3)]} / 2(1)

y = { -4 +/- sqrt[ 16 + 12]} / 2

y = { 4 +/- sqrt(28)]}/ 2

y = {4 +/- 5.2915....} /2

y = 9.2915/// / 2 = 4.64575....

&

y = -1.2915... / 2 = -0.64575....

What is the answer to a x a x a plus b x b x b equals c x c x c?

well it could be anything, but I think you are thinking of Pythagoras' theorem.

a(2) x b(2) = c(2) (2) = squared

What is x squared plus 12x plus 36 equals?

x2 + 12x + 36 = 0(x + 6) (x + 6) = 0

x+ 6=0 ;x + 6 = 0

x = -6 ; x = -6


The population of a country increases by 2.5 percent yearly if the population is 25 million in 1960 the population in the year 2000 would be?

If the population of a country increases by 2.5% yearly, then that is a multiplicative factor of 1.025. Between 1960 and 2000, there are 40 years, so raise that factor to the power to 40, 1.02540, and you get 2.685. If the starting population in 1960 were 25 million, then, with a population growth of 2.5% per year, the population in 2000 would be 2.5 million times 2.685, or 6.7 million.

Minutes in a month?

There are 24 hours in a day and 60 minutes in an hour. So,

24 * 60 = 1440 minutes in a day

================================================you can figure out othe month lengths yourself now

What is x to the power 0.5?

x0.5 is the same as x1/2

Any number or variable to a fraction power can be written as a form of a radical.


In this case it would be written as √(x)


To actually solve you would need to know what x is.

What are tha elements of science?

There are 92 elements that naturally occur and several others that are man made. Things like gold, silver, oxygen, hydrogen, mercury. Look at the periodic table of elements. That will show you all of them.
Sounds like you're referring to the chemical elements. These elements are the most basic categories of matter. They include Oxygen, Hydrogen, Silicon, Gold, Silver, Carbon, Uranium, etc. Most matter we found in nature is a combination of these elements. For example, steel is a combination of Carbon and Oxygen. Sand is a combination of Silicon and Oxygen. Water is a combination of Hydrogen and Oxygen.

See an introductory Chemistry textbook for more.

Is pre-calculus honors difficult from a normal algebra 2 class i have an A in algebra 2 and its getting to the point to where its kinda boring what do i have to learn to be prepared?

Pre-calculus honors covers more advanced topics than algebra 2, such as trigonometry and limits. To prepare, focus on strengthening your algebra skills, particularly with functions, graphs, and equations. Additionally, familiarize yourself with trigonometric functions and properties to ease the transition.

Where did Ada lovelace do most of her work at?

Ada had no job, after her father died when she was nine years of age, her mother tried to force her into slavery. Ada fought it for quite a while, until there was no use. Her aunt from her fathers side, took her and turned her into a slave, used to fix other computers, with that and the knowledge she had with math, she learned how to make a program for her computer. As soon as she made one, she fled the country to become famous. And died at the age of 36, because she had a bad case of measles. :) Your welcome!

How do you learn calculus?

Calculus, like any math, is best learned by practice. You can use a Study Deck - see the link to learn how to make and use one! - for the formulae and definitions, but the key to learning is to work problems until you really understand it.

A Norman window has the shape of a semicircle atop a rectangle so that the diameter of the semicircle is equal to the width of the rectangle. What is the area of the window with a perimeter of 45 feet?

To find the area of the Norman window, you need to divide the perimeter by 2 to get the width of the rectangle, which is 22.5 feet. The radius of the semicircle is half of the rectangle's width, so it's 11.25 feet. The area of the rectangle is 11.25 * 22.5 = 253.13 square feet, and the area of the semicircle is 0.5 * pi * 11.25^2 = 198.93 square feet. So, the total area of the window is 253.13 + 198.93 = 452.06 square feet.

Is a piecewise graph a function?

Yes, a piecewise graph can represent a function as long as each piece of the graph passes the vertical line test, meaning that each vertical line intersects the graph at most once. This ensures that each input has exactly one output value.
