hey guys try this asap, also on it obtain W(y1 , y2) (t) ...(i.e wronskian ) if y1 and y2 are two solutions of t^2 y"+2t^3 y' -t^-2 y=0 |

agentofchange1:This is elementary. Defining the Wronskian as [img]http://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/Classes/DE/Wronskian_files/eq0036M.gif[/img] The differential equation is: t2y" +2t3y' - t2y = 0 First we divide all through by the coefficient of the second derivative (y" ) which leaves us with: y" +2ty' - y = 0 Applying the Wronskian defined above we get: W = c*e-∫2t dt W = c* e-t^2 (Because the integral (anti derivative) of 2t = t2 + C) W = c* e-t^2 where c is an arbitrary nonzero constant. That's all. Cheers. |

Karmanaut:good Job Bro. I would have posted the solution before you but i taught it should be more complex lol. it was just two lines. t^2y"+2t^3y'-t^-2y=0...divide 2ru by t^2...y"+2ty'-t^-4y=0...what i need here is just {2t}...W=ce^-$2tdt..-$2t=t^2+c..thus W=ce^-t^2.. |

^^i read it sometimes back(just roughly during first semester holiday i think). i am very happy that i recalled the formula without much racking of brain. cool |

uwc pretty, so what do have for the boys? Vixxie: |

my prof. ok na , i see your hand work sir , what do you have for the boys? Karmanaut: |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 1:46pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
agentofchange1:Something simple: Find the limit of tan (x)cos(x) as x tends to π/2 |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by elmajor(m): 2:00pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Vixxie:U're pretty good. But the answer to the question is not an approximation. U may have to adopt another approach. |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 2:25pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Karmanaut:Is that tan(x^cos(x)) or (tanx)^(cosx)? |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 2:26pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Vixxie:The second: (tanx)(cosx) |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 2:54pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Karmanaut:Hmm... tricky. Answer is most likely 1 though. There's no answer @π/2 since tanx will be undefined. The tan curve is a crazy one. But as x approaches π/2 from the left and tanx begins to go to +infinity while cosx goes to zero, limit tends to 1. Also, as x approaches π/2 from the right, and tanx again begins to go to -infinity and cosx to 0, limit goes to 1. I can show a detailed calculation if you want, but i think this demonstrates the concept. ![]() |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 2:55pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
elmajor:I only solved from intuition and i think I'm close. Looking at the question though, the answer is most likely 2 parts. I managed to search through Google and got this interesting result https://www.momentum98.com/peroxide.html

| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 3:11pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Vixxie:The answer is 1. But I want to see how you solved it. |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by agentofchange1(m): 3:26pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
L hopitals rule man , aloow that damsel to rest watching movies now , maybe later . i will post solution Karmanaut: |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 3:31pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
agentofchange1:There's a way to solve it without L'Hopital's rule. |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by agentofchange1(m): 3:49pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
ok boss lets see it, Karmanaut: |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 3:58pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
agentofchange1:Easy. Set tan(x) as sin(x)/cos(x) So you'll rewrite the question as: limx->π/2 sinxcosx/cosxcosx Then you substitute π/2 for x. Since sinx^cosx= 1^0 =1 and Since cosxcosx resolves to 0^0 which is mathematically undefined (0 or 1, depending on who you ask) substitute y for cosx. So you have 0/y^y Then using the exponential function the denominator becomes elny^y which is ey*lny Since y = cos π/2 = 0 we have: e0 which is 1. So we have 1/1 = 1. Done. |

that's right boss, thought of that too , leme finish this movies , will join u guys later Karmanaut: |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by elmajor(m): 5:06pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
Vixxie:The answer can be got without first consulting any source. By the way, u know about hydrogen peroxide? What can u say about the product? |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by Nobody: 10:27pm On Nov 02, 2015 |
elmajor:I actually got the answer first without consulting any source. The snapshot is after the fact. |
| Re: Nairaland Mathematics Clinic by elmajor(m): 8:00am On Nov 03, 2015 |
Vixxie:Yes, the answer is a whole number and not approximation. I actually want a step by step process to arrive at the number. The formula u used did not give the exact number. Ur answer is just close. |
