cubes

I must prove that the derivative of x^2/3 is 2/3x^-1/3 by using the definition but I don't know where to go after the initial plug in , that is if I even did it right. lim ((x+h)^2/3-(x)^2/3)/h h->0

Let k be a prime integer such that 100 < k < 225. How many distinct values of k exist such that k = a^{3} + b^{3} where a and b are both positive integers? The answer key says 0 and I suspect this has something to do with k being prime. What's the explanation behind this?

Dear forum members, Firstly, I am new to this forum and a complete non-math person, so please forgive me if I posted in the wrong area. I am an artist and am working on a sculpture that requires some math that is way above my paygrade (I know my 7 times tables, up to 7x7!), so I am hoping...

Hi. So I need help with some math questions. I've asked my friends but they're kind of stuck too. 1.http://s1295.photobucket.com/user/chloe ... 5.png.html It is supposed to be a cube that is sticking out of the ground. We were given: The ground coincides with the x,y-plane and that the y-axis...

Let ABCDA'B'C'D will cube, such as in the figure. points K, L, M, N lie on the middle of edge of the AD, BC, A'B ', C'D'. Points P and Q lie on the segments KM and LN. The edge of the cube is 2 Prove that PQ> √ 2 The tasks are edited by google translator, so sorry for linguistic confusion...

what are the side lengths of 2 different cubes that are 35cm and 42cm? what is the ratio of the volume of the smaller ot the volume of the larger in simplest from?

Can you name off the cubes whose base number exponents have their digits sum up to the cube of the base number? (yes undefined, this is in OEIS) Moderator edit: Approved challenge question.

How do you compute the Fundamental group of the 1-skeleton of the 3-cube I^{3} = [0,1]^{3} ? What about the Fundamental group of the 1- skeleton of the 4-cube I^{4} ? I know the Fundamental group of a space X at a point x_{0} is the set of homotopy classes of loops of X based at x_{0} . And...

Hello! I would like to know how to calculate perspective precedence in 3D space. (I'm not a mathematician, so I don't know if it's the correct term, but I will try to explain what I need). I have an observer in space (px, py, pz). I also have a Rubik’s Cube, with 27 "little cubes". I have to...

I've got a maths exam next week and i need to know how to work this question out for my revision so please could u show me: There are some cubes in a bag. The cubes are eithert red (R) or black (B). The teacher says: If you take a cube at random out of the bag, the probability that it will be...

Please see the question in the image below: I would be extremely grateful to anyone who could explain this question to me step-by-step, eventually arriving at the final answer, as I have spent almost a week on it, and I still do not think I am getting anywhere at all - it is not an easy...

I've been stuck on this question for about a half hour. I really don't think the answer I'm getting is correct. \frac {(x-y)^2}{x^3-y^3} + \frac {2}{x^2+xy+y^2} Is the LCD: (x-y)(x^2+xy+y^2)? I feel like I'm getting thrown off because I'm so use to factoring trinomials when finding the LCD...

Hi I am having a few problems with a couple of questions of an algebra revision assignment. I have never heard of, nor been taught how to do the sum of two cubes up until this point. a) 54x^3 +2 b) x^6 -7x^3 -8 I have been having a go with the first one as it seems simpler. Using the theory I...

Please remove.

Hello, Need help in these problems 1-(x+y)^3 (x+y)^3+1 1-a^6x^6 I am having some trouble figuring these out, if you can help me please, thanks. If you can key it out fully would be great to help me understand. Thank you Joanne

a^{3}+b^{3}=( \sqrt[3]{a^{3}}+ \sqrt[3]{b^{3}}) (a^{3-1} -\sqrt[3]{a^3b^3} +b^{3-1}) And just switch the sign after a^3-1 for a^3-b^3 My question: I have read that the last two signs are constant (never changing) Unless the initial sign is different. I.e. a-b = +,+ a+b = -,+ now take this...

I have a mystery that's out of the ordinary. If you visit http://www.trump.de/magic-squares/magic-cubes and check the History of Perfect Magic Cubes, you will see that a 7th-order perfect magic cube was discovered by Andrew H. Frost back in 1866 (before there were electronic computers) while...

Prove there are infinitely many positive integers which cannot be represented as a sum of three perfect cubes hmmm how do you go about this question using contradiction?
