[size=16pt]By using the Cartesian-paraboloidal coordinate transformation equations:
(x=uv sin φ, y=uv cos φ, z=1/2(u2-v2),
show that the 3-dimensional Laplace's equation
Fxx+Fyy+Fzz=0
reduces to
1/(u2+v2) (Fuu+Fvv+ 1/u Fu+1/v Fv)+1/(u2v2)Fφφ = 0.[/size][/color]

let the required point(s) be (a,b). Then, note that the slope of any line making an angle of 45o with the positive x-axis is tan 45^o=1.

Then, obtain dy/dx. Substitute x=a and in the equation and equate to 1. Solve to get the value of a.

Next, to obtain b, note that the point (a,b) lies on the curve y=f(x). Set b=f(a). Substitute the value of a, to obtain b.

Write the coordinate of the point(s) as the pair (a,b).

Thats all!

^good job benbuks.

Final thing to note is that, generally, Log doesn't take negative bases, and as such, we discard the value x=-5.

Thus, the only answer is x=4.

busuyem: Pls house, I'm planning 2 go 4 my MSc. in
Maths. Which option is the best in Maths to
study. I'm contemplating on which to choose
considering the future advantages.
Need ur advice.
in case you intend lecturing after the M.Sc, I suggest you do Pure Maths(that's take courses like General Topology, Abstract Algebra, Functional Analysis, Measure Theory).

If you are still thinking about lecturing or may wish to work elsewhere after doing your M.Sc, then choose Applied Maths(that's take courses like Advanced Optimization, Numerical Analysis, Operations Research).

Note however that list of courses available at M.Sc differs university-wise.

benbuks: ..av u heard of sophomore's dream?
yeah. I doubt it'll ever have application.

Well, that thing you gave as f(x)=x^x^x^x^x^. . ., let's take a bit look at it.

f(0)=0^0^0^0^. . .which you may argue as undefined since even 0^0=0^(1-1)=0/0 is undefined.

What is f(0.1)?

f(0.1)=0.1^0.1^0.1^0.1^. . .which remains undefined [compute a few terms, maybe up to 15, monitor ir's behaviour and convince yourself that it is undefined]

what is f(2)?

f(2)=2^2^2^2^. . . = infinity.

f(3)= ?

f(3)=3^3^3^3^. . ., which as you already knew, blows up too!


Thus, why bother yourself by integrating what doesn't make sense?
EducationRe: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by jackpot(f): 4:11pm On Sep 25, 2013
benbuks: ....ok try this dear....integrate (x^x^x^x....to infinity.)dx
is this a function? No

for example, if f(x)=x^x^x^x. . ., then you'll agree with me that f(x) forall x>1 doesn't exist.

By the way, power series representation is only valid for analytic functions.

but Sir,
a, b and c are all real numbers and such they are not limited to integer values. For example, a can be log2=0.301029995. . ., because 0<log2<1.

Also Sir,
a, b and c lies inbetween the open interval (0,1) which means the set {x: 0<x<1}. Thus, a, b and c can not admit any integer values (in particular, a, b and c cannot take 0 or 1).

...try to show humility sister...i could remember a question benbuks posted,and you asked him not to post simple question again...why can't you solve this,you are just using approximate method...Try to know this that:THERE'S NO MATHS GURU...you can just know up to the level you are and the aspect you are studying......WELL SHA,you tried...
Sir, I already did. It wasn't an approximate method since the summation in my answer is still running from 1 to infinity. The fact is that I left my answer(which is very correct) in series form.

With my method, there is the temptation to conclude that I can integrate just any function! wink

Integrate 7^sinx.dx
Transform "7^sin x" to "e^(sin x ln 7)".

Get the Maclaurin series expansion for the exponential function. e^x =\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac{x^k}{k!}

Replace "x" with "sin x ln 7"

Finally, integrate term by term.

Thats all!

benbuks: Integrate.(e^x . 3^e^x . 5^e^x)dx..tnx
first of all, your question reduces to

Integrate e^x.15^e^x dx

by making the substitution u=e^x, it further reduces to

Integrate 15^u du = (1/ln15) 15^u + c = (1/ln15) 15^e^x + c.

Integral e^(x^2)
Easy.

Get the Maclaurin Series Expansion of the exponential function.

Replace "x" with "x^2"

Integrate term by term.

Thats all!

In Latex language, the answer is

$\int {e^{x^2}~dx}= \sum\limits_{k=0}^\infty \frac{x^{2k+1}}{k! (2k+1)}$

i dont think it will work here. The integral is 1-dimensional (x alone, no y). Its not as if you are transforming from Cartesian coordinate to cylindrical/spherical coordinate. I hope you get my drift.
