Arghh!!!!

Ok I did this shit again Laughing

and it got me k=-1/2. If I'm wrong I'm not doing it again Mad

Why do you guess k? eco smile

Equal what you calculated to 2/3. Let me see:

(4+4k)/ ( 3* sqrt( 1+k)^3) = 2/3
4*(1+k)/( 3* sqrt( 1+k)^3) = 2/3
4*(1+k)/ ( 3*(1+k)*sqrt(1+k)) = 2/3 and so on... You almost solved the shit eco smile

by urbaNRoots Mon Sep 10, 2012 4:46 pm

k=+-sqrt(2)-1

Finally Laughing

did the integral but struggled to solve k Laughing

The interval is -1/(k+1)^(1/2) to +1/(k+1)^(1/2)

But the integral of g(x) minus integral of f(x) over the interval gets very complicated to solve for k.

I only tried it once and then decided to assume it is ellipse. I may be making some mistake. I will try again when i get the time, but if you solve it before, tell us the answer.

That's exactly what i did, However It's integral over integral in the end and i don't think it will end pretty. Although it might be a case of f'(x)/g(x)

4*(1+k)/ ( 3*(1+k)*sqrt(1+k)) = 2/3 and so on... You almost solved the shit

Let's continue at home. According to urbanroot's prior calculation:
(4+4k)/ ( 3* sqrt( 1+k)^3) = 2/3
4*(1+k)/( 3* sqrt( 1+k)^3) = 2/3
4*(1+k)/ ( 3*(1+k)*sqrt(1+k)) = 2/3 ,eradicate (1+k) from the fraction on the left

=> 4/(3*sqrt(1+k)) = 2/3 | divide both sides by 2/3
=> 2/ sqrt(1+k) = 1 | ( )²
=> 4/ (1+k) = 1² <=> 1+k= 4 => k=3

I don't know whether the answer is right or wrong but k=3 according to urban's prior calculations.

You could give it a try Laughing

Ask Urban, he studies something smiliar to software engineering in Germany I guess eco smile

Integral over integral RG?

I just got k = 8 now Laughing

After intergration, it would be x - (k*x^3)/3 - (x^3)/3. Then you sub 1/root(k+1) and -1/root(k+1) into this and equate to 2/3.

so it will be

x ( 1 - ((x^2)/3)(k+1)) over which you sub +1/root(k+1) to -1/root(k+1).

When you sub this, you get 2/root(k+1) = 2/3. Hence k = 8.

Please check it guys.

@kiranr, very strange but according to Urban's calculations and my continuation we had 4/(3*root(k+1)) = 2/3 at that point.

@Spanky, test for k=3 or k=8 whether the calculations were right eco smile

For all the interested parites, that's what German high schoolers need to know in maths in order to be able to study at an uni:

Fun Question

Requirements: the ability to count till 9
Difficulty: unknown

Maths- Gym for Brainiacs - Page 25 M5m88scg

Nine 3s are ordered in a way that their horizontal, diagonal and vertical sum is 9. Order the nine 3s in a way that 10 series with the sum of 9 are created eco smile

The solution is graphical of course eco smile

Yeah, horizontal, vertical and diagonal lines with three 3s each which result in 9. YOu need 10 of those lines eco smile
