Well in that case you have a pythagorean triple so the answer is trivial.

Hurr durr x=2
I wanna know HOW to solve for x

Hey

I tried doing 3^(x) + 3^(log3(4)*x) =25
then substituting y=3^x
Y+Y^(log3(4)) - 25 = 0
In that case you would have a "polynomial of n degree with n being non-integer, if you look up online there are some methods that allow you to calculate the number of roots and maybe a method to calculate them that I don't know of

if looking for a approximate solution you could just apply a root-finding algorithm for the last equation with two reasonable approximations of Ya and Yb, values in which the root will be encountered

"I think therefore I am"

scrap the tesselation vs singularity..

Because that will give you errors and cause confusion it would be better to input this after.

Yeah, no. Higher FREQUENCY =/= higher energy.

>Say we killed all human activity in Africa and recorded the whole continent for tens and millions of years. Would humans eventually be evolved again on that continent?
No because the climate changed, also there's no reason to develop a large brain there anymore so it would never happen

>>7780081
>If we put cameras on all the worlds shorelines and recorded them for a million years would we see an example of this happening?

I doubt it. When animals first came on land, there was an uninhabited ecological system to saturate. Now there are plenty of land based forms and amphibians already.

I don't even know when the last time was something walked out of water and became land based.

>Would humans evantually be evolved again on that continent?

Something would need fill the ecolocial gap left by humans, and it would most likely be apes. So yes.

inventing your own methods like a fucking genius instead of being some fuckboy lapping up the genius of others

This. If you can't independently derive the laws of motion and thermodynamics and quantum mechanics using nothing but a 1kg block and the Calculus, you'll never get anywhere in science.

>>7779946
skin color is a social construct

fuck off racist

I am white (mostly of welsh descent) and i will try to impregnate any flowers that will work

You can quickly spot bad science when its adherents are extremely arrogant.

"Evolution is just a theory!"
"Gravity is just a theory!"
"The conservation of momentum is just a theory!"

Right... Totally an one sided thing there.

And you would fail out of any higher level mathematics autism course, or physics, or engineering or...

Different bases of knowledge. We need biochem fags to discover meds, and shit, just like we need pure math to sperg out and make mathematics that may one day have an application.

As long as you aren't shit at what you do, and you aren't being an autistic biofag doing work that has no medical purpose, then you are doing good work.

>reasonable way of thinking

How have mods not banned you yet?

Btw OP chemistry is just applied physics, enjoy your babby degree (^:

>>7779863
Except unfortunately for physicists, employers don't see it that way, and actual chemists have both the breadth and depth of their field that can only reasonably achieved from specialization. It would be nice if physicists could go into fields that are "applied physics", but the whole not specializing in it is a turn off for employers.

Are you American? Why did you not attend school?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine#Series_definition

>>7779711
There are lots of different representations of sine, but the simplest would be the Taylor series: [eqn] \sin (x) = \sum^{ \infty } _ { n=0 } \frac { (-1)^{n} } { (2n + 1)! } x^{ 2n +1} [/eqn] You'd have to hold quite a few terms for it to converge to a reasonable accuracy as x gets larger.

>>7779711
The sine (and cosine) function, which you probably know can be described by the proportional sides of a right triangle, is a function which meets a specific set of properties (like sin^2(x) +cos^2(x) = 1, among many others) and we can prove that this is the ONLY function which meets these properties, proving it is unique. So you could argue that we calculate it through use of a right triangle and prove that it is a unique function in this respect in that it is the only function to have certain properties.

In addition, however, there are the complex forms as well.

Sin(x) = (e^(ix) - e^(-ix))/2i

This is also a method of calculating sine. Simply plug it into that definition.
Note that it is still a unique function despite having 2 representations because we can prove (through Euler's identity) that both representations are equal and thus they are the same function.

Understand?

here's the syllabus.

http://chemistry.fas.nyu.edu/docs/IO/19766/CHEMUA651.pchem.quantum.turner.spr2015.pdf

There are chapters in the textbook that brush you up on some of the math. I guess I'll look at those rather than picking up and reading a whole calculus book.

What the fuck is this guy doing?

OP aside from this guy being really unprofessional he seems to have no fucking idea what he's doing. I highly recommend you do not take his ego course unless you really have to. You won't learn anything from this shithead.

That entire fucking pile of shit he wrote on problem solving is especially disconcerting.

>>7779348
>Radically different famous textbooks that do not cover the same material at all or is an entirely different level

What? Introduction to Quantum Mechanics by Griffths and Physical Chemistry by Atkins are frequently recommended as supplement/main texts for Quantum/Physical Chem courses. Harris and Bertolucci's Symmetry and Spectroscopy is more geared towards an Inorganic/Spectroscopy/Group Theory course but it's not inaccessible.

>Like everything fucking high level software instead

He says to use it for plotting. This isn't a coding class, what language you use isn't important.
