Answer 2

@Mandy_Nakamoto just checking that im looking at third, second and first derivatives?

Answer 3

u did write out this question correctly?

Answer 16

i only did first term's math so far

Answer 17

dude i just realised. forgot to change the equation to polynomial. its to be (m^3)-(3m^2)+4y-2=0

Answer 18

sorry2

now can u do it?

Answer 20

omg i was freaking out with the third and second and first derivative stuff O.O
and yea i can do this now :P

Answer 21

give me a sec
