HAHA funny. But I found out a problem. My friend told me the problem over the phone and I wrote it down wrong:crap: This is actually it.
is that:
We got the answer on a calculator, but weren't sure if it was correct. Plus he needs to learn it, and to be able to do problems like these without a calculator. Certain problems he can use one, but not for this one he said.
Sorry, I am basically limited to making smartass remarks.
Yes, that is correct.
When it comes to calculus without a calculator I am with you:laugh:
HAHA...that is funny. When I took it I remember it not being very hard, but now that it has been a long time, I don't know anything anymore. It is really sad how much of it you forget. But yeah, always being a business major in college, I just had to pass an entry level business calculus class, and that was it.
Once you get knee deep in it, its actually much easier than it looks right now on your screen...
I can explain it in words, I think. Pretend he didnt' use e. Like 8^8/8^7. Raising to a power is just repeated multiplication. All of the bottom will cancel out you'll end up with 1 higher power on the top, since the top is (x+1), it's always 1 power higher, with the bottom becoming 1. so (8^1)/1=8. Works with any real number.
1. plug in x=2 for all x
