Are you fucking retarded? That's true regardless of b>a.

>>7774704
(b-a)/a=(b/a)-1

>>7774713
how?

A lot.

>astronomy

The study of space

>cosmology

The study of a pseudoscience

One is about the zodiac signs and the other is about makeup.

>plugging numbers in
>he can't even do that
Fuck off and get someone else to do your homework.

define a function that returns 8000 - the right hand side of the volume function and replace b with a/K.

Then all you have to do is use a root finder or optimization routine to solve for a at every K.

Then b then S from the saved a and K values.

>Recent high school graduate who will be first entering college later this month reporting in.

If my understanding is correct then for any value of K you need only replace a with Kb in the volum formula and then calculation until you have something like

8000 = c*b where c is whatever constants result from multiplying 1/4 times pi squared times all that a b shit going on. Then you can get b. and because a = kb then you can also get a.

Then plug in your values of a and b into the formula for surface area and you are done.

So... from what I can gather Numerical methods is just basic algebra?

Man, I used to be impressed when I read engineering curriculums include 'Numerical methods for engineers'. Now I know that should read 'Basic algebra for people who didn't do enough high school'.

Anyways, please tell me if I am incorrect and also

>inches

for fucks sake man, that is heresy.

Is Calculus 3 worth learning? It isn't in the curriculum and I have been told Cal 2 is all I will need.

Starting mechanical engineering in college this September.

What is kans acadimy?

Fuck you and drink bleach.

The cancer has increased a lot this new year, jesus.

lol oh I forgot about this xDDD (y)

Look man if quantum entanglement actually worked we'd be using it by now

>not it is predicted

its a meme, nothing travels faster than light

Like you have AIDS.

>>7774521
You die.

>>7774521
Depends on the pathogen. If it were an aggressive hemorrhagic fever, like Machupo, then you'd have invasive proliferation within the nervous system leading to grand mal seizures. There'd also be extensive internal bleeding as your capillaries and vascular system deteriorated. This often results in massive multiple organ failure.

Bugs like Neisseria meningitidis will basically run train on your body, spreading to the meninges and your bloodstream. Once sepsis has set in, you'll die in hours due to shock.

Typically, AIDS patients will suffer from multiple infections as native flora, such as C. albicans, growth goes unchecked. Kaposi sarcoma, which is caused by a herpes virus, is also common. Tuberculosis is known as HIV's executioner. Immunocompromised individuals are extremely susceptible to infection.

>TL;DR
Unchecked infection fucks you good.

all engineers of all stripes are the dumbest beings to walk the earth

>>7774515
I think that's a bit harsh.

Gunslinger/turtle engies are the worst.

perhaps

/sci/ everyone

>>7774513
Only if you study pure mathematics.

Nothing can convince her. Except maybe if her kid got measles and died or something.

Why is she against vaccines? Does she believe them to be ineffective? Or harmful? And in what way?

>>7774494
She thinks that
1: a vaccine shouldn't be needed every year against the 'same' viruses
2:the body can fight viruses naturally

>>7774508

Explain to her how antigenic shift and antigenic drift work in the Flu.

How long is a rope?

>>7774391
It causes cancer.
So does sugar and sunlight, you need to get away from all three immediately.

Yes. That's why we have 8 teeth designed to eat it.

You what's harmful to health? Being a fat fuck.

tell me ur problem and ill solve it rite here rite now m8

Maybe not a /sci/ one, but an independent think tank with qualified people would be nice

I like them OP. No h8 bls.

>>7774307
yeah? well, these animals have no characteristics that I like or admire, and can't understand why people give a shit desu senpai

>tfw when humans are long gone they will adapt to land again and give rise to the next civilization-building species from planet earth.

Read /fit/'s sticky. It's not written by a /fit/izen if you're that much of a faggot about it.

>>7774136
how about the fact that it's not the same cat ?

/fit/izen here to tell you that it's not really that hard. Either act on your impulses to succeed immediately or continue to sit and whine and be a fatass

Depends where you go to school.

In America? Yes

UK. Looking at either Cambridge or Imperial.

I don't know shit about them. Try Google or email someone at the school, I'm sure someone has asked that before.
