godofphysics: hmmn! Daniel17 has actually killed d questn in a simple but logical way!

Yes. He solved for even numbers. I just did that of odd. I had to explain it because we're all here to learn.
Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 7:06pm On Nov 21, 2013
smurfy:

Solve for all odd numbers? Okay.

Here goes...

4-DIGIT NUMBERS

The last digit must be 1, 3 or 5. The first digit must be 4 or 5.
Six scenarios!

(a) first digit is 4, last digit is 1
(b) first digit is 4, last digit is 3
(c) first digit is 4, last digit is 5
(d) first digit 5, last digit 1
(e) first digit 5, last digit 3
(f) first digit 5, last digit...

Ha! We can't use 5 twice, so scenario (e) doesn't count. That means we'll only consider scenarios (a) to (e) only.

(a) gives 1*4*3*1 = 12
(b) gives 1*4*3*1 = 12
(c) gives 1*4*3*1 = 12
(d) gives 1*4*3*1 = 12
(e) gives 1*4*3*1 = 12.

Adding the scenarios gives 5*12 = 60 ways of forming odd numbers greater than 4000 from the digits 0 through 5.

5-DIGIT NUMBERS

We have three scenarios here since we don't have to bother too much about the first digit. We only ensure the digit zero doesn't come first.

(a) ends with digit 1 gives 4*4*3*2*1=96
(b) ends with digit 3 gives 4*4*3*2*1=96
(c) ends with digit 5 gives 4*4*3*2*1=96.

So there are 3*96 = 288 ways of forming odd 5-digit numbers from the digits 0 through 5.

6-DIGIT NUMBERS

Three scenarios. Let me skip a step or two...

(a) 4*4*3*2*1*1 = 96
(b) 4*4*3*2*1*1 = 96
(c) 4*4*3*2*1*1 = 96

So, there are 3*96 = 288 ways of getting 6-digit odd numbers from the digits 0 through 5.

Final answer...

The number of odd numbers greater than 4000 that can be formed from the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 is 60 + 288 + 288 = 636.

Hey, we obtained 684 for even and 636 for odd numbers. Why do we have less ways of forming odd numbers than even numbers? smiley

It's partly because of the silly restriction placed on 4-digit numbers. It has cost the ODD NUMBERS team a whooping 48 points! sad

Yup!

2. Volume of cylinder = ^r2h, d/dx (^r2h) = 2^rh
put in the correct measurement into this to get 80^
Multiply the result above with (4.02 - 4.00) => 0.02
Approximate increase = 0.02 * 80^ = 5.02655 cm

rhydex 247: @ lanrexlan questn.
x+y=5... (1) nd x^x+y^x=13...(2)
Solutn.
frm eqn 1. x=5-y. Put x=5-y in eqn 2. We av
(5-y)^(5-y)+y^(5-y)=13... eqn * Nw we av reduced d problem to what value of y that must be put in eqn * to obtain 13. Hmmm. A thorough look at eqn 1 nd eqn 2 show dat d values of x nd y must b positive integers within the range 0<x<5 nd 0<y<5.
clearly, y=3. i.e
(5-3)^(5-3)+3^(5-3)=13. Nw dat we av y=3. It is more convenient to get x.
recal dat x=5-y. x=5-3. x=2.
hence d soln is x=2 nd y=3. All is well. @ richiez u knw wat i mean.
alrt sir but is there no crazy way of solving dis other than trial nd error? #i just want 2 b sure# (5-y)^(5-y)+y^(5-y)=13

Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by factorial1(m): 9:13am On Nov 22, 2013
factorial1: 4. The side of a square is 5cm. How much will the area of the square increase when the side expands by 0.01cm?
either of d method can be used. Method1. The area of d square wen the side is 5cm= 5cm^2 = 25cm^2. So wen d side expands by 0.01cm d length is 5.01cm, d area is den 25.1cm^2. Now d increase in d area is (25.1 - 25)cm^2= 0.1cm^2. [quote author=echibuzor]

rhydex 247: Question 1.
Show that the four points whose position vectors are 3i-2j+4k, 6i+3j+k, 5i+7j+3k and 2i+2j+6k are coplanar.
Question 2.
If a ^ r=b+¥a and a.r=3 where a=2i+j-k and b=-i-2j+k. Then find r and ¥.
Question 3.
Prove the identity. (a ^ b).(c ^d)=(a.c)(b.d)-(a.d)(b.c). Where ^ means cap or cross

$2xsin(1/x)-$cos(1/x).,
Let's do d frst integral..
$2xsin(1/x)..let dv=2x,v=x^2,u=sin(1/x),du=cos(1/x).-1/x^2..
By part we av
X^2sin(1/x)-$x^2.Cos(1/x)-1/x^2
=X^2sin(1/x)+$cos(1/x)..
Remember ou first equ

$2xsin(1/x)-$cos(1/x)
We now av
X^2sin(1/x)+$cos(1/x)-$cos(1/x)
=x^2sin(1/x)...op em rite sha.....its so Gud 2 b back on nairaland...I grit all d profs in d ouse..

Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Adol16(m): 4:11pm On Nov 25, 2013
Laplacian:
2^2x=8x, or 2^(2x-3)=x or

2^(2x-3)/4^(2x-3)=x/4^(2x-3)

(1/2)^(2x-3)=x*(1/4)^(2x-3)

(0.5)^(2x-3)=x*(0.25)^(2x-3)

(1-0.5)^(2x-3)=x*(1-0.75)^(2x-3)

by binomial approx.

1-(2x-3)*0.5...=

x*[1-(2x-3)*0.75+...]

re-arrangin gives
1-x+3/2=x-3x/4*(2x-3)
or
4-4x+6=4x-6x^2+9x
or
6x^2-17x+6=0

for d second question;
(4/x)^x=2x or 4^x=2x^(x+1) or

2^(2x-1)=x^(x+1)...i hope u can go on from there?

i think the approximation can be used only when x is very small. try solving 2^x=4x using the same method
