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.

What is an example of using recursive functions?

Let's take the example of finding the factorial of a number (of a positive integer). The factorial of N is N * (N-1) * (N-2) * (N-3) ... * 3 * 2 *1 It is the product of all integers between that number (including that number) and 1. For example, factorial 2 = 2*1 = 2 factorial 3 = 3*2*1 = 6 factorial 4 = 4*3*2*1= 24 Now you define a recursive function Fac (N) as Fac (N) = Fac (N-1) * N, with Fac(1) predefined as 1. Thus, Fac(N-1) = Fac(N-2) * (N-1) and Fac(N-2) = Fac(N-3) * (N-2) and thus recursion takes over until such time fac(1) needs to be evaluated. We know the value of Fac(1) which is set as 1. Thus we can evaluate Factorial(N) using recursion.

When did William Hyde Wallostan discover palladium?

William Hyde Wollaston discovered palladium in 1803. Wollaston, a physicist and chemist, was born in East Dereham, Norfolk, England on August 6, 1766.

What is the point of contact when the parabolas of y equals 2 -2x -x squared and y equals 3x squared plus 10x plus 11 meet each other on the coordinated grid?

If: y = 2 -2x -x^2 and y = 3x^2 +10x +11

Then: 3x^2 +10X +11 = 2 -2x -x^2

Or: 4x^2 +12x +9 = 0

Factorizing the above: (2x+3)(2x+3) = 0 meaning x = -3/2

When x = -3/2 then by substitution y = 11/4

Therefore point of contact is at: (-3/2, 11/4)

How to solve by using elimination methood 8x plus y -16 plus -3x plus y -5?

Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by Answers.com means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to give a proper answer to your question. Please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "times", "divided by", "equals".

Unfortunately, what you might have considered a pair of simultaneous equation, is being displayed to us as one expression!

How do you find the x intercept for x2 36 plus y2 64 equals 1?

It seems that it is the equation of an ellipse, x2/b2 + y2/a2 = 1, with center at the origin, a vertical major axis with length 2a, and a horizontal minor axis with length 2b.

x2/36 + y2/64 = 1

Since you are looking for the x-intercepts, they are (√b2, 0) = (√36, 0) = (6, 0) and (-√b2, 0) = (-√36, 0) = (-6, 0)

What is the purpose of finding derivative?

The purpose of finding a derivative is to find the instantaneous rate of change. In addition, taking the derivative is used in integration by parts.

What does x equal when x divided by 11 equals 13?

X/11 = 13

Just multiply through by 11 ( fully illustrated below )

11/1(X/11 = 13)11/1

X = 143

========check in original equation

143/11 = 13

13 = 13

Graph the equation y equals 2x plus 1?

So, if we see the basic equation y=mx+b, we see that m=2, and b=1.

If you look closely, this is basic rotation and translation of the original graph.

First, I would translate the "mother graph" (y=mx) and then translate one up.

Then, we would rotate the graph to the right two units.

What is the derivative of ex2?

It might become easier if you split the problem in half. Since we know that d/dx[f(x)-g(x)] is the same as the derivative of d/dx[f(x)] - d/dx[g(x)], you can rewrite your problem as d/dx(e)- d/dx(2x). (it's common usage to write coefficients in from of variables, but that's just notation). The derivative of e is simply 0 (since e is a constant) and the derivative of 2x is 2.

so d/dx(e-2x)=0-2=-2

2712 plus 3x equals 96 plus x?

2712 + 3x = 96 + x

First, take away the x on the right side, and put a -x on the left:

2712 + 2x = 96

Now that x is only on one side, move the constant (2712) to the other in a similar way:

2x = -2616

Then divide both sides by 2, so you have x by itself.

x = -1308

How do i solve x x-2 equals 7x?

assuming the gap before x-2 is a +, then x+x-2=7x, so 2x-2=7x, so 5x=-2, so x=-.4

Solve x2-4x plus 3 equals 0?

You can try to factor the LHS to get:

(x - 3) (x - 1) = 0

we then know the two solutions are:

x - 3 = 0

or

x - 1 = 0

so, x = 3, 1.

If a equals 2.34 and y equals 8.92 what does axy equal?

There is no definite answer for what axy will equal to if we are not given x's value. If we were given the value of axy we could solve for x if only two variables are known, or if x were know we could solve for axy. We do know that axy will equal to 20.8728 multiplied by x's value.

(2.34)(8.92)x = axy

20.8728x = axy

What is the highest common multiple of 21 and 84?

The highest common multiple of 21 and 84 is infinity.

The least common multiple, on the other hand, is 84, while the greatest common divisor is 21.
