we just learned the power rule today i was sooo pissed cuz i wasted like 1 hour doing homework using the limit thing and it was mad gay. and it wasnt fair cuz like im in AP calc BC and i went from pre calc honors to that course unlike some seniors in my class who went from academic calc to that class. they already knew the power rule and used it on the homework it took them 5 minutes and us hours. THIS IS GAY

If so, start a new topic ;-)

are you still using the limit definition of the derivative? (with delta-x and stuff?)
because that method is ridiculously tedious and a total waste of time until you get the power rule....

but back on topic, does anybody legitimately need help with math/calculus?

i just started dem so i dont know how easy or hard they are but i can say this much when you start doing problems dat are being raised to the fourth, fifth or sixth power they get tedious. if it wernt for pascals triangle i wud probably shoot myself seeing something raised to the fifth power
but ya even the problem that was raised to the fourth power was easy, just a lot of useless writing that makes it gay

derivatives are a joke... it's called the power rule and pretty much the easiest thing you'll ever learn

we covered limits again, did it last year in pre calc, n now we learned derivatives, that sh*t is a b*tch
we had to find a derivative of a function raised to the fourth power.... thank god for pascals triangle =p

usually you cover limits before derivatives, which are before integrals

yes, had to multiply by the x and y bc the x went up by 2 and not one LOL, but anyway, im on limits now n i dont need help on that but keep this thread open so i can ask in the future! (got 47/50 on my first test hehe)

sooo... did you figure out that integral issue?

Assuming you're just starting integrals or you're still on the limit of Riemann sums definition, it gets better, there's this elegant little thing called the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus which makes the integral like a 15 second job (5 if you're me) and it's almost impossible to mess up the area beneath a curve with the FTC method

This is NOT a discussion forum.

This is a HELP forum.

kthx

i used to get 96 in math but i dropped alot
but i get over 85 percent on every exam without doing homework and sh*t

This thread makes me want to throw up all over my protractor. I HATE HATE HATE HATE math.
So much so....I couldn't get through algebra I. I got a "C." I managed a "B" in Geo and I have no idea how I did that. f*ck YOU, Pythagoras!

integrating has nothing to do with boxes at all, unless you happen to be talking about Riemann Sums?

I 'm pre-calc, but the only box counting ive heard of is with cube counters :o

Re: help me math aarrrggg!!

by raulperez » September 11th, 2007, 7:07 am

what in the hell are you talking about "box counting"? i'm on my second year of calculus (meaning calc 2, not "failed calc 1") and i've never heard of that... have you gotten to the fundamental theorem yet?
