HELP URGENT! LAST QUESTION OF SEMESTER

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait i uploaded wrong one, i already did that one lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on

OpenStudy (some.random.cool.kid):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 if i get this right i wont have to take the final and my extra credit will give me an A help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@MathematicsNerd help:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you remember how sigmas work?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 13 minutes to do it:(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

will 13 minutes be enough? AHHH :0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so now think about square binomials. \[(i - 1)^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is that equal to?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it cancels:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no wait it doesn't

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(i - 1)^2 = -1 - 2i +1 = -2i\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jim_thompson5910 this is my exam that i took yesterday lol this one is not exam

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

I gotcha

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks!:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just to make sure you got it correct, what was your answer?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

well this is what I get when I graph f(x) on that restricted interval 0 <= x <= pi/9

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

if you reflect the graph over the line y = x, you get this blue curve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i still dont have answer @MathematicsNerd

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

based on the graph, we see that the tangent line at x = 1, for the blue inverse curve, is a vertical line. So the slope is undefined here. This means \[\Large (f^{-1})'(1) = \text{Undefined}\]

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

Some books would probably use DNE for "Does not exist"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you sure? its DNE?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

it depends on how your book states it some say "undefined" or "UND" others say "DNE"

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

they all essentially say the same thing

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

me personally, I like UND better

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i meant are you sure its undefined?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes because the tangent line for the blue curve at x = 1 is a vertical line

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

at first, it's horizontal on the red curve but then it reflects over y = x to become a vertical line

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, its DNE!!

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok great

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANKS !! I WON'T TAKE MY FINAL AND HOPEFULLY GET AN A!! MY TEACHER WILLAVERAGE MY GRADE OUT SHORTLY!! Thanks:)
