post 21

well another week of calculus comes to a close and all this reviewing is helping me a goodd bit.

volume by disks:

the formula is pi times the integral of the [function given] squared times dx. so just solve it by taking the integral of it and then pluging in the numbers they give you. just like before you'll have two numbers so whatever the answer is for the top one will be first and then you subtract the answer you get for the bottom one. then graph

volume by washers:

the formla is pie times the integral of the [top function] squared minus the [bottom function] squared times dx. so to do this, if you don't have the in between number you have to set the functions equal, but if you do, then it's worked the same way as above. square the formula's that were given and simplify. then take the integral of it and plug in the numbers they give you or you found by setting the formulas equal to each other and then solve like any other one by subracting them. then graph.


limits:

Rules for Limits:…
1. if the degree of top equals the degree of bottom, the answer is the top coefficient over bottom coefficient
2. if top degree is bigger than bottom degree, the answer is positive or negative infinity
2. if top degree is less than bottom degree, the answer is 0


related rates:
-Write down the given
-figure out which formula they want you to use
-plug in the given
-take the derivative
-solve for the unknown

im not too good at the lram rram mram stuff even though its super easy. i can never remember how to do it and when i finally to i forget.

  1. just think of it as
    LRAM starts at f(a) but doesnt make it to f(b)
    RRAM doesnt start at f(a)but does end at f(b)
    MRAM is the middle of the intervals
    Trapezoidal just remember the formula
