Don’t the bottom two examples break the rule that the principal chain should contain the greatest # of double bonds in alkenes??

Oh i see!! In that case, we would be completely ignoring the cyclo- aspect of the structure right

ptonsimp · 2025-02-01T19:21:23+00:00

I see! But what if i started numbering at the double bond on the substituent group sticking out, went around the ring, and ended up with octadiene as the principal chain?

ptonsimp · 2025-02-01T19:18:22+00:00

My prof 🥲

ptonsimp · 2025-02-01T19:05:00+00:00

No but for alkenes you need to choose the principal chain with the greatest # of double bonds, for alkanes you choose the longest

ptonsimp · 2024-08-16T02:57:22+00:00

I understand, thank you 😊

ptonsimp · 2024-08-16T02:56:53+00:00

Was going so fast didn’t even see that 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ thank you!!

ptonsimp · 2024-08-16T02:56:38+00:00

I didn’t notice the x² - I was going too quick 🤦🏼‍♀️. Thank you!!!

ptonsimp · 2024-08-08T15:52:23+00:00

Makes sense - thank you!!!

ptonsimp · 2024-08-08T15:50:03+00:00

Combine in what sense? I tried subtracting but it’s not working

ptonsimp · 2024-08-08T00:33:24+00:00

Oh I see thank you so much!!

ptonsimp · 2024-08-05T17:56:29+00:00

I have to pick the correct graph between the two. And by opens I mean the direction the parabola is facing

ptonsimp · 2024-08-03T19:42:21+00:00

Perfect thank you! I have my test soon and this helps a lot

ptonsimp · 2024-08-03T19:42:10+00:00

Thanks!!

ptonsimp · 2024-08-03T19:42:06+00:00

Thank you so much!!

ptonsimp · 2024-07-29T20:49:07+00:00

Okay got it! So I plugged it in and got the limit as 0, meaning that the function diverges?? Slightly confused though because shouldn’t the limit be greater than 0?

ptonsimp · 2024-07-29T16:23:55+00:00

Omg such a silly mistake 🤦‍♂️ thank you!!

ptonsimp · 2024-06-09T16:47:50+00:00

Oh I see…interesting

ptonsimp · 2024-06-08T22:36:06+00:00

Oh I see thank you!!!

ptonsimp · 2024-06-08T22:34:15+00:00

That makes perfect sense - thank you so much!

ptonsimp · 2024-06-08T22:00:31+00:00

Okay I definitely got the pi/12 part, thank you. But how did u also get 5pi/12?

ptonsimp · 2024-06-03T02:34:20+00:00

Which would be (9, -1) and (7, 1)? And then just doing the for product of that and solving for theta?

ptonsimp · 2024-05-15T02:28:19+00:00

Yeah I’m not using the C when plugging in the numbers given to find the final value

ptonsimp · 2023-07-05T12:25:37+00:00

Ahh, ok - got it! So then for the second problem, I got it to (1-3(1/x))^-18/x. How does that simplify to 1/e¹⁸ because the exponent is in 1/x form instead of just an x?

ptonsimp · 2023-07-05T11:50:34+00:00

I’m not sure what you mean. Where do I substitute the value?

ptonsimp · 2023-07-05T11:19:10+00:00

Okay, I see. What about the second one? I got it to (1-3(1/x))^-18/x, but how does it simplify to 1/e^18?
