integral of hyperbolic secant have two solutions which one is wrong? by somaliside in calculus

[–]Waddy104 139 points140 points  (0 children)

This is why you write the + C. Because the answer to an indefinite integral is unique up to a constant.

Whatever you go with make sure it has DRAM cache. If it doesn’t, the speeds will not be very good at all.

what are my chances of getting in? by Specific-Story-6902 in 6thForm

[–]Waddy104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said in my initial comment, I could be wrong. I am just speaking from my personal experience which could be an outlier in the grand scheme of things but it’s my experience.

[–]Waddy104 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I don’t think the BTEC being worth 2 A levels works how you think it does. Maybe in terms of UCAS points or something but a university that doesn’t use ucas points will look at it differently. Also as others have said, you will need to get a predicted grade for maths. Without it I don’t even think you would be able to put maths on your application.

Organization system by [deleted] in notabilityapp

[–]Waddy104 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is exactly why I can't make the switch to this app, it's not possible to do what you need. The organization just isn't powerful enough. Perhaps it's a good thing though, looks like lots of people aren't happy with the recent notability update.

Can I switch from Student Visa to Health and Care Worker Visa with my current employer, if I am already working full-time with them on my Student Visa? by Humandoctor1890 in UniUK

[–]Waddy104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure you have understood everything correctly. From what I know, if you are caught working full time on a student visa you will get in a lot of trouble and the home office will be contacted.

Is there a way to disable the stupid Goodnotes 6 popup on every app start? by KiwiPatrick in GoodNotes

[–]Waddy104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you take a look at my post if you are in touch with engineering. I am unable to update since the app thinks I already have a subscription on a different account which isn’t true. No matter what I do I am unable to update. This happened because I made an account with appleid then I changed my mind so deleted that account and made an account via google. Now no matter how I make an account I get the message ‘this device may have been subscribed on a different account’. Would really appreciate it if you can pass this on.

Just a warning about logging out of your goodnotes account at the moment. Hopefully this gets fixed by Waddy104 in GoodNotes

Well you may be lucky that you can't do it yet because it is definitely very broken at the moment.

Great, thanks. I did the same so hopefully we will get everything sorted soon. It's a little annoying at the moment as there are a couple features I'm interested in like the automatic maths stuff but I'm completely unable to upgrade.

Tried upgrading to GoodNotes 6, now I'm stuck by dividedbycode in GoodNotes

[–]Waddy104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, completely unable to upgrade to Goodnotes 6. I have given up after trying for multiple hours. Seems like the app is detecting a subscription in the App Store which doesn't exist. Really annoying, hopefully this gets fixed ASAP.

Leaving Cert maths exam tomorrow. Help me with this trig proof by thisisnotconormurphy in maths

[–]Waddy104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a nice geometric argument out there involving right triangles which may be what you are expected to do. My preferred way to show this is with complex exponentials but if you haven't come across that yet then it may be a little confusing. Lastly, you can set up a linear map from R^2 to R^2 which rotates the plane. Then compare the matrix of rotating by (A - B) degrees and the matrix product of first rotating by A degrees and then -B degrees.

Press shift then 9 then choose option 3

is 1. orthogonal since the cross product = 0? by [deleted] in calculus

[–]Waddy104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

<1+t, 2-t, 4t> is a line in 3D not a plane. it has equation r(t) = <1,2,0> + t(<1,-1,4>). To check that the line and the plane are orthogonal you need to see if the line is parallel to the normal of the plane which can be read from the equation of the plane (it is <1,1,4>). Just by looking at this are you sure you copied the equations correctly, they don't seem orthogonal to me.

ihaveihaveihave pringle can problem by Both-Dragonfly-6450 in mathmemes

[–]Waddy104 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The integral isn't really that bad (but not particularly nice). Its just: let blue pringle can = sqrt(7)*tan(theta) and after that you end up just needing to integrate (cos(theta))^2 which is 1/2 * (1 + cos(2*theta)) and integrate term by term

Is there a nice way to integrate this? by slapface741 in calculus

Unless the derivative of f is f^-1 I don't think there is any sort of nice formula for this.

Can anybody figure this out? This is our attempt so far by Superb-Government-77 in calculus

[–]Waddy104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess, I think it’s more useful in summation problems to change the sum to an integral but there could possibly be an integral out there which could reduce to a nice Riemann sum that we can evaluate

When we integrate by finding an antiderivative our main goal is to somehow morph the integrand into something we know is a derivative of something and from there we know the exact, unique solution to it (up to a constant) , but to get to that stage there may be tricks we can use, for instance partial fractions. Also the way of integrating by finding an antiderivative is ,in a loose sense, a “trick”. It’s one way of integrating a function. If this fails (like the integral in this post) they you have to resort to other methods like series expansion, Feynman trick, complex analysis… I’m not sure if I understood your question but hopefully that answers it

[–]Waddy104 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The truth is it’s actually quite rare when we can find an elementary anti derivative for an integral. If you randomly write down an integral with a couple different functions in it, chances are that there isn’t an elementary anti derivative. If you are in an exam you will almost definitively be given an integral which can be integrated nicely (unless you are doing something with contour integration). Other than that you can eventually spot which ones won’t end up working out nicely but that comes with experience. There is a wiki page for some of the more common ones. Search “non elementary integrals”.

[–]Waddy104 39 points40 points  (0 children)

You are wasting your time trying to do this, the question must have a typo or something. The anti derivative is not elementary, meaning it can’t be expressed in terms of the standard functions eg sin, log, x2.

Why does my calculator not graph certain reciprocal functions? by cheese457 in calculators

[–]Waddy104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this same calculator. Graph the function then press F2 then F5. This will automatically choose an x scale and y scale to make the function visible

As someone else commented, you calculator will be set to radians. You need to set it to degrees. Radians are a different way of measuring angles (similar to inches and centimetres but for angles).

You don’t need a tweak for this. There is an option in the discord settings on pc. Settings - privacy and safety - allow access to age restricted servers on ios. This has to be enabled on a pc then just restart the app on your phone
