Well /sci/ i went full autistic and started studying integral calculus on my own; i can't do 3 things.
I managed to find alternate formulas of the revolution function surface C(x), being these two first formulas.
Let C (x) : Surface area of a revolution volume
And l (x) the arc length of a function f (x)
Pic related:
The first formula explains itself. I WOULD LOVE to know how to simplify it.
The second one was a thing i got when I was trying to find out the formula. MY Queation is how do i operate with it?
THE third one is the formula the book gave to me. How do I find out this formula?
You could simplify C(x) by expressing cosine using the tangent (Use identities tan=sin/cos and sin^2+cos^2=1).
You'll get something like sqrt(1/tan arctan(dx/dy)) and the trig funcs will disappear.

How?
Please help a brainlet in needs.
Please recommend me a book so I can teach myself precalc. No khan academy, I'm talking a book book.
>>8727049
bumping for this.
i need to know as well.
>>8727049
Are the you middle school brainlet who switched from finance to physics? Give it up. You will fail.
Hi /sci/. I usually browse /k/ or /a/, but I thought you guys would be interested in this.
my mom's a schoolteacher, and she sent me a math problem that looked wrong to her. I confirmed that it was wrong, and this email conversation was forwarded to me. the test question writer insists that the answer key is right.
This isn't exactly a rare occurrence either. I think the test question writers are sick of dealing with me via my mom as a proxy.
>"distributive property"
what???
Hi /sci/. I usually browse /h/ or /hm/, but I thought you goys would be interested in this.
My mommy's a overpaid babysitter, and she sent me a math problem that she couldn't figure out herself. I confirmed that it was really tough, and this email conversation was forwarded to me. The test question writer insists that he is a HUGE autist.
This is exactly a rare occurrence too. I think the test question writers are sick of fucking with me via my mommy as a proxy.
>fixed
>>8727076
But OP hasn't asked for any help. So your response is unjustified. This is a thread where we collectively roll eyes at dumbasses. Initially, it was the author of the math problem, but now it is you as well.
Daily reminder that if you're not directly contributing towards the creation of an AGI you're wasting your life.
>>8727045
What does it matter? Immortality should be first, cancer second, then everything else. It's not like we'll get to make a socialist automation-based utopia in our lifetimes anyway.
>>8727052
You do understand AGI, if friendly, will give us immortality and cure all ailments? Much faster than we'd get them without AGI.
>>8727045
"It" reads the shitposts on this website and determines the course of humanity through the power of meme magic. We are all directly contributing towards the creation of true AI. Not just AGI.
Hi, MENSA calculated my IQ. It's 146.
How come that I can UNDERSTAND math, but I can't DO it?
>>8726795
Welcome to Autisville
>>8726795
Lack of practice.
>>8726795
If you can't do it you don't understand it enough. This is not humanities where you can just read a text and understand it.
That's a deduction that a 146 IQ person could easily devise alone.
Be me. You will get...
1) High IQ
2) Dick that is above average in terms of size
3) Strong jawline
>>8726727
17 cm master race.
>>8726727
aren't you a CS brainlet though?
How does he look so healthy for smoking so much crack?
>>8726605
He's a fat fuck.
>drinks a diet coke every day
...why?
>>8726605
He's a billionaire. He could get AIDS and still have the body of the Terminator if he wanted.
So what's the practical purpose of an IQ test? It seems that the only reason you'd ever get one would be to boast about how great it is. Is it just another heigharchal standard, or does it hold some meaningful purpose.
>>8726570
*hierarchical
It serves no purpose whatsoever.
idk check your intelligence quotient maybe?
Name 1 (ONE) reason to learn abstract algebra as a would-be programmer
>>8726417
Your math working memory increases and your pattern recognition for solving problems related to math increases as well. Then, I guess there are applications of linear algebra to programming.
>>8726417
I see a lot of permutation groups in babbys first AI
A would be programmer would be better off learning hindi
How can space bend like this if space is comprised of nothingness.
And thus, how does gravity work?
>>8726241
how can electromagnetic space move through empty space, even though waves need a transmission medium? That's about the same question...
Space doesn't obey the intuitive rules you expect from matter. It's a whole different thing.
In what space does the space bend
So, what's /sci/'s opinion on the sauchie case?
I've always been a huge sceptic about anything that wasn't matter, but lately I've been reading a lot on the matter of mental conditions and, by extent, cases such as these. Just to make it clear, I'm not talking about ghosts, ghosts both do not make sense and have never been documented or proven in any way, but could "telepathy" or any other sort of undetected form of energy exist around us capable of changing what we do see in high enough concentrations?
Telepathy has been extensively studied repeatedly with a lot of time and funding, and yet there is still no proof that it exists. Very few things have gotten as many chances to be validated, but it has failed time and again.
The main problem with believing in telepathy is that it's testable, and it has been tested, and it has failed those tests. Telepathy is not real.
>>8726146
And the case?
>>8726153
It was made up by fake news papers to sell issues. Do you think Bat Boy is real too?
If I became conscious from nothing and then when I die I will be noting again, then why won't I be conscious again?
because there is no "i"
You will.
Infinite consciousness.
>>8725832
But why does it feel like there is? Assuming my brain is just chemical reactions, couldn't I do everything I'm doing now without being conscious?
what makes the navier stokes equations near impossible to prove if they're always smooth/continuous or not?
>near impossible to prove
There is no such thing as "near impossible". Things either are impossible or possible. Same goes for other brainlet phrases like "almost infinite".
>>8726116
what do you think about the phrase ``almost all''

Just look at this.

This stupid mother fucker just spews vapid, meaningless bullshit for over 15 minutes, and everyone just laps it up, pure bullshit mind you. Just look at the comments and how stupid your average man or woman is. Jesus Christ, it makes me feel like I must be some kind of evolved, overman compared to these retards.
>>8725627
Common folk aren't trained to be thinkers. They're trained to be blissfully unaware happy go lucky slaves. Be happy you were born in a wealthy family or were afforded the privilege to experience the joys of intellectual pursuit.
>>8725627
You go to a place where actually intelligent people are, or you talk with someone who's vastly smarter than you and crushes you like the bug you are
>>8725640
>trained to be
Can we let this stupid meme die? The majority of people are never going to be leaders or thinkers. You can't train someone to br curious and creative.
Why does /sci/ seem to attract the most amount of mentally ill people of any board on 4chan?
>>8725593
It's just one person with a lot of time on his hands.
but I suppose you know that, don't you?
