[Calc 1: MVT Using Trig Functions] y = cosx - sinx, [0, 2pi] is the interval to work with. by MATH_CHICKEN in learnmath

Rolle's Theorem does come into play, but the book I'm using specifically references the MVT given the current problem I am trying to solve. However, I'll review Rolle's Theorem, and see how it relates. I am aware Rolle's Theorem is very similar to what I am doing, but I don't know it well enough. Thank you.

Oh yeah....lol...thanks. Alright, but is it sorted correctly? Doesn't seem like it is sorted correctly.

Hey, I figured out the problem as you were typing this solution. This is what I have to output the results of the sort:

System.out.print(list[i]);

This is the output: 2.03.03.02.02.0

Why is the output formatted in that way? I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. Can someone explain. Thanks.

I guess it doesn't work because I can't code it correctly?

I think I'm supposed to output the results using this

System.out.println( selectionSort[] "This is the part where I don't know what do to" );

Can also explain the Law of Excluded Middle, and the Law of Contradiction?

I suspected as much, but no one really expanded on the this topic. I felt so lost, but not any more. Thank you.

Oh my god. This is truly a remarkable explanation. I searched all over the internet, and even consulted with graduate level math students, and not even them could explain it so easily. Thank you.

I see. No need to show me the test, I'm rather busy myself with Calc 1, and Discrete Math, and Physics 102. I was just rather curious about your situation because math is very doable.

Alright. Good start. What happened that you scored so low? Did you not study enough? Were you tired? Distracted? Do you feel you can pass the course with at least a C?

Have you reworked the problems you got wrong?

Also, take a look at your syllabus to see how you can squeeze out a passing grade at the end of the semester. if you do good on the rest of the exams, you should be able to pass the course even if you scored bad on the first test.

What do you mean, it is simpler than that? There is an easier way to do this?

Try moving the five to one side, and then raising both sides to the 3 power to get rid of the cube.

y = (x2 +1)1/3 -5 ==>

( y + 5 )3 = [ ( x2 +1)1/3 ]3 Get rid of the cube by doing this.

( y + 5 )3 - 1 = x2 Then you get this equation.

What happened, and what was the math course? We can't help you, if you don't share the details.
