where did i fuck up? i can't see it yet it's definetly

what would Lennard Euler do...

Confirmed for brainlet

You fucked up by making it to university without being able to do the fucking quotient rule.

i know the rule by heart but when i arrange the terms it makes no sense why the answer could be this.

>>8480007
Seriously dude. This is so easy. Do the derivative then simplify.

>>8479994
also i did some integral by parts but i want to polish myself so that all my arithmetic for this stuff is immaculate. i don't want to just memorize the formulas. im going to work up to integration by partial fractions to day.

>>8480012
k

>>8480007
The top part is supposed to be
Denominator • (numerator)' - numerator • (denominator)'.

>>8480022
but when i do it i get 3-S+sqrt (s).

>>8480025
Uh. What's the full problem then? I'll try it out.

>>8480093
here's the problem. every time i get what i posted for you in my numerator.

Math is so gay.

What the fuck is a quotelt rule

Hope this helps.

My fault, I didn't add the s^2 in the denominator.

>>8479994

Ever using the quotient rule beyond demonstration for the exam

>brute force math
>not helpful

answer is [(2/3)*s^(5/2)] - [1/(s^2)].

instead of having s^2 on the bottom bring it up top as s^-2 and then never again do the quotient rule

>>8479601

OP; factor out a s^-3/2 out of the top and while youre at it combine s+sqrt(s) into s^3/2. once you factor it out you can see that the s^-3/2 and the s^4 (or 2^8/2) returns an s^5/2 on the bottom.

>>8480161
5/2? wouldn't it be 11/2 since you're gonna have S^3/2*S*8/2 in the denominator?

This is a high school junior level math course, yes?

Regardless, here you go. I don't know what you're doing wrong because I don't see where in this problem there's room for errors.

Best of luck graduating.

>>8480326
i know how to do it like that but when it's in quotient rule form it made no sense. like in >>8480200 you'd get a S^3/2*S^8/2 in the denominator, which is equal to s^11/2.

Here's the problem worked out step-wise with the quotient rule. Compare what you've done and try to find the mistake.

Seriously dude. You're so dumb.

>>8480362
that's not even right see >>8480007

>>8480364
Yes it is you fucking idiot. Do you even understand algebra?

>>8480369
we're about to find out

>>8480364
...
Make 2s^(5/2) the common denominator if you really want it to be exactly the same as the solution given to you.

>>8480369
that's arithmetic not algebra bucko.

>>8480374
It's arithmetic algebra... You're performing calculations with letters.

>>8480376
no it's not it's the study of abstract structures. you're just doing arithmetic with symbols, which while algebra uses, isn't based on. it's analysis of symbols.

>>8480379
My engineering is showing. My formal math knowledge is worse than I thought.

I apologize; you're correct.

So who's right? this guy here >>8480357 ?

>>8480397
OP here. i think all the answers given here are correct. i was just stuck because i don't believe i did the proper quotient rule. i did gf'-fg' instead of fg'-gf'. right?

>>8480397
Both >>8480357 and >>8480362 are correct step-by-step solutions. The latter doesn't fully simplify, but both should guide you.

>>8480403
Yeah, you were doing it wrong. At least you figured out what was going on
