need help with problem
post it
err you need help but you want us to help or not?
my server was out for little bit, sorry!
:D this site is really harms the machine -.-'
that for sure, lol
it looks like differential o.O
yep!
i cant bring up your diagram for some reason
what version of windows do you have?
ta just put your screen shot to paint and save it as .jpg file then there won't be any problem
this is a lot easier than it looks at first glance, especially if you know how to take derivatives quickly. do you?
yes!
good then the derivaitive from the left is -1 and the derivative from the right is \[\frac{1}{(7-x)^2}\]
clear what i did right? for the left i used \[f(x)=7-x\] and from the right i used \[f(x)=\frac{1}{7-x}\]
to get the two derivatives. then replace x by 6 derivative from the left is a constant. it is -1 when you replace x by 6 in the second expression you get 1
yes!
it only looked hard
ok, so does f' (6) exists, if does how would you find its values
clearly not since \[1\neq -1\]
oh ok, so if they both had the same solution then, they would exists
true?
oh yes sorry. if the limits are the same then it exists and if not then no
