Yea, I know it's integration. I'm learning, but let's just say I'm not the sharpest lightbulb. I'm slowly starting to get it. Once I get the problem set up and find my limits of intergration, I've got it.

I'll take a 6 digit salary. Maybe I need to work some more Cal problems.

Limit's are pretty fucking easy. Just try doing them backwards.

mazda/nissan 09-25-2007 12:05 AM

easier said then done, my teacher is spanish and my TA is indian and says vediable=variable. But yeah i need to buck up and practice because that chapter is old news now :td:

If it's easy, TEACH ME!

Find the volume of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified axis.

Y= Square Root of (x-2), X=3, X=8, Y=0; about the X-axis.

I get 76.39 finding the intergral from 3-8. The 'solution' I get say's I should evaluate the intergral from 3-6. Why not 3-8? They solve from 3-6 and get 54.98? I'm confused. This is the only one where they change the limit's of intergration on me.

Suman Hameed was my Cal I teacher. "HICK" is how he pronounced the letter 'h'. He could barely speak english. Cal II I have a better teacher.

they should change the name: maitaturbo&calculustutoring.net

My university has their own site to research various teachers. I used it and ratemyproffesor to pick my teachers. I looked up 3 diff. cal teachers and went and met each of them before picking the great teacher I have now. I understand what we do in class, but as always, the HW is a week ahead of what we do in class and usually more difficult problems.

Come on neogenesis2004, HELP ME!!!! It's fuckin easy!

that sounds like integration to me. On the positive side you learn calculus, spanglish and inglish in one class. :D

Not sure where the limits of 3 -> 6 come from (if they're hand-written 'solutions' from a TA/professor, etc., then it's either sloppy writing or a 'typo'), but the answer is most certainly 35π/2 ~= 54.98. If you need it written out, I can give it to you.

Yes, Please. Are you saying the correct answer is 54.98? Thanks for any help.

patsmx5 09-25-2007 10:09 AM

yep, going to have to get philip to open a sub forum under bs for calculus tutoring.

Richard: if your good at calculus your my new best friend.

richard is a calculus expert (and speaks five languages, including his own dialect of english used here on this forum)

Thanks. I reworked the problem before my cal class and got the right answer. I forgot to distribute the pie and also made a sign error on my first attempt. I asked the teacher and she verified that it should be 3-8 and that 3-6 was a typo.
I got to take my time and work slowly so I'll quite making simple mistakes. I guess I understand how to do it, but I'm not competant enough to work them out without showing every step and going back and checking myself to make sure I didn't make a simple mistake.

Richard is a calculus expert? Hey Richard, I'll rewire your car if you teach me Calculus. I'll even stop harassing you about FMICs. I got a test thursday and I'm hoping to do well instead of failing it like my last test.

i went to a meeting at 10 for some field work, finished at noon, went back to the hotel, watched some TV, then the gym. Now I'm thinking about taking the hard-top off and going for a spin.
