The Calculus Diaries: How Math Can Help You Lose Weight, Win in Vegas, and Survive a Zombie Apocalypse

Kiss My Math meets A travel of the Calculus

Jennifer Ouellette by no means took math in university, as a rule simply because she-like so much people-assumed that she wouldn't want it in actual lifestyles. yet then the English-major-turned-award-winning-science-writer had a transformation of center and made up our minds to revisit the equations and formulation that had haunted her for years. The Calculus Diaries is the thrill and engaging account of her yr spent confronting her math phobia head on. With wit and verve, Ouellette indicates how she discovered to use calculus to every thing from fuel mileage to weight loss program, from the rides at Disneyland to taking pictures craps in Vegas-proving that even the mathematically challenged can examine the basics of the common language.

A Course in Multivariable Calculus and Analysis (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics)

This self-contained textbook provides a radical exposition of multivariable calculus. it may be seen as a sequel to the one-variable calculus textual content, A direction in Calculus and genuine research, released within the comparable sequence. The emphasis is on correlating basic ideas and result of multivariable calculus with their opposite numbers in one-variable calculus.

Partial Differential Equations V: Asymptotic Methods for Partial Differential Equations (Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences) (v. 5)

The six articles during this EMS quantity offer an summary of a couple of modern recommendations within the research of the asymptotic habit of partial differential equations. those recommendations comprise the Maslov canonical operator, semiclassical asymptotics of recommendations and eigenfunctions, habit of ideas close to singular issues of other types, matching of asymptotic expansions with reference to a boundary layer, and strategies in inhomogeneous media.

Prove that there is no smallest positive real number. 56. At first glance, it may appear that the number y 5 0:9 5 0:999 : : : is just a little smaller than 1. In fact, y 5 1. Let x 5 1 2 y. Explain why it is true that x , 102n for every positive n. Deduce that 0 # x , b for every positive b. Explain why this implies that y 5 1. 57. About 2400 years ago, the followers of Pythagoras discovered that if x is a positive number such that x2 5 2, then x is irrational. Complete the following outline to obtain a proof of this fact.

The vertical and horizontal lines are called axes. It is convenient to name each axis by using a variable. Commonly, the horizontal axis is named the x-axis and the vertical axis is named the y-axis. The Cartesian plane is then called the xy-plane. The two axes divide the plane into four regions that are known as quadrants, which are ordered as in Figure 1. Each point P is determined by its displacement from the axes. Here the word “displacement” is interpreted in the signed sense: Positive displacement is to the right or upward, and negative displacement is to the left or downward.

3 Lines and Their Slopes y 27 The Intercept Form of a Line Notice that if a and b are nonzero, then the equation b y x a ϩ b ϭ1 y x 1 51 a b x a m Figure 9 is a particular form of the general equation of a line. 6) is a line. 6). 6) describes the line ‘ with nonzero xand y-intercepts a and b, respectively. It is the intercept form of ‘ (see Figure 9). ⁄ E X A M P L E 9 Find the intercept equation of the line with x-intercept 3 and y-intercept 25. State the slope-intercept form as well. 6), the intercept equation is 1 y x 1 5 1: 3 25 x Ϫ1 ð1:3:6Þ 1 2 3 4 Ϫ1 Ϫ2 Ϫ3 This equation is equivalent to y ϭ 53 x Ϫ 5 y x 5 2 1 1; 3 25 Ϫ4 or Ϫ5 y5 Ϫ6 m Figure 10 5 x 2 5; 3 which is the slope-intercept form (see Figure 10).
