where did i goof up? i'm doing Riemann form of the definite integral, and this term is supposed to be 81/4(1+1/n)^2 only, but i still have an n on the denominator even with sum of squares substituted in.
>>8550569
By taking n out of (n+1)^2 you brainlet
>>8550574
but how else do i cancel out n^2? this is what the book does.
>>8550577
Yeah but it's n^2 not n, so n^2(1+1/n)^2 is on the top and you get the thing you expected
>>8550580
ah i see, i apologize for my stupidity. i didn't keep into account the power while factoring.
>>8550584
Don't worry Senpai, and don't give up
>>8550580
so while this thread is up, wanna talk about mathematics?
>>8550588
I'm but a lowly physicist, pretty much a 100 iq equation monkey
>>8550588
Yes. Does a "positive" Hessian matrix of a two-variable functions implies that this function admits no maximum ?
>>8550591
i thought physics was ripe with math, like path integrals and gauge theory.
>>8550615
Not him, but the tools used in physics are usually less rigorous than in Math.
It's not usual to treat da/dt as a fraction to resolve differential equations easier.
>>8550593
why of course not, wtf anon
