1. Specific case of 5th degree polynomial equation

I know that for the nth degree polynomial equation (where n>4) there is no general solutions. I wonder if it possible to solve special case of 5th degree polynomial equation which lacks linear and quadratic terms. a1x5 + a2x4 + a3x3 = b, where a1,a2,a3, and b are positive real numbers. any...
2. Inhomogeneous Linear Second-Order DE (specific question)

Hello The question is to Solve the differential equation - y′′ + y′ = 4x. I worked out the complementary function as = C1 + C2e^(−x) but for the particular solution I believed it took the format Ax+B as it was a polynomial of degree one. However, In the worked solution x(Ax+B) is used. Why is...
3. Expanding a binomial and finding a specific term.

1) expand binomial (x-2y)^4 I got x^4+4x^3-2y+6x^2-2y^2+4x-2y^3-2y^4 Also is there any easier way to do this? I am using the binomial theorem, and it is hard to memorize all the formula. 2) (4x+3y)^10 Fidning term containing y^7 (210(4x^4)(3y^6))
4. Specific Gravity question and weight/ volume

working with perfume oil in ethanol to get a 22.5% dilution: Ethanol has a specific gravity of 0.8 An oil I'm working with has a specific gravity of 1.0 using a 3ml vial what is the calculation to calculate the amount of oil and ethanol In order to get the oil at 22.5% dilution in ethanol basic...
5. A specific problem on Sobolev's embedding theorem with its relation to Fourier transf

I have recently encountered this problem in my studies of Sobolev spaces and generalized functions (distributions), on which I can say I might have some intuition but cannot stumble across a final solution, but first some notations: $\mathcal{S}$ is the Schwartz class of functions and \$...
6. Finding a specific solution for a general term in a sequence and a general strategy

A problem says to: Write the nth general term of the following sequence: 1, 16, 243, 4096, and 78,125......etc The answer given is n(2+n) Is that the correct answer? Also, what is a general strategy for solving such problems? Is there anything better than just guessing a pattern?(Doh)
7. Primality tests for specific classes of N=k \cdot 2^m \pm 1

Polynomial time primality tests for specific classes of numbers of the form k \cdot 2^m \pm 1 are introduced .
8. Questions about Jacobians (specific problems)

I'm working through David Widder's Advanced Calculus. I've made it past limits, homogeneous equations, and implicit differentiation, and now I'm starting the subsection on Jacobians. Having no linear algebra experience—I'm pretty much only able to take determinates and dot/cross products—I'm...
9. Problem I saw somewhere about finding a specific angle.

I tried to solve it but I cannot. The problem is finding how large a is in this picture: http://i.hizliresim.com/k1kvaA.jpg I made another picture showing how far that I got: http://oi60.tinypic.com/2sbjzhk.jpg Angles a,b ,c, and d are the ones that I cannot figure out. Also If I could...
10. Bingo style probability - chances of exactly specific number of balls released

Hi all, I would like to simulate a bingo game jackpot, all calculations being made in Excel and I need help with the math. The game uses numbers 1 - 80. The player 'chooses' 16 numbers from this range. A win constitutes matching all 16 numbers for a 'House' I can currently work out the odds...

12. finding a specific topological group with specific conditions

Hi; I have a question, it sounds difficult. The question is the following: Let X be a topological group such that the binary operation defined on it is *. For any two points a and b in X define a new operation by a(*)b=b^-1*a*b, [(*) is a new operation on X inherited from *]. By this (*), we...
13. How to find out the kernel in a specific vector?

f: ℝ² --> ℝ² F((x,y)) = (2x+4y , x+2y) My solution so far: I) 2x + 4y = 0 II) x + 2y = 0 II) x + 2y = 0 / -2y x = -2y II) x + 2y = 0 / -x 2y = -x / :2 y = -0,5x So I have x = 2y and y = -0,5x What do I do now?
14. Proving that AUB is countable Infinite given a specific case

(a) Prove: If A is a ﬁnite set and B is a countable inﬁnite set and A (intersection) B = null set, then AUB is countable inﬁnite. (b) Is 'A (intersection) B = null set ' a necessary assumption? For A, I understand that I need to find a bijection f:B to Natural numbers, then prove that it's 1-1...
