I am working on Taylor Series and I believe one of the derivatives in the solution manual is wrong. I am taking the derivative of [math] f(x) = \frac{x}{(1-x^2)^{(3/2)}} [/math] I believe it is: [math] f'(x) = \frac{1+2x^2}{(1-x^2)^2} [/math] but the answer key says it is: [math] f'(x) = \frac{1+2x^2}{(1-x^2)^{5/2}} [/math] Can you check my math please.

I was given the following problem description for a depth-determination problem, however I am completly unable to figure out how this "pseudo-distance" feature works, if anyone has any clues and can provide a uber-simple example it would be much appreciated - I just can't see how it works/applies. [Problem] In the depth-determination problem, we maintain a forest F = {Ti} of rooted trees. We use the disjoint-set forest S=Si, where each set Si (which is itself a tree) corresponds to a tree Ti in the forest F. The tree structure within a set Si, however, does not necessarily correspond to that of Ti. In fact, the implementation of Si does not record the exact parent…

For the first time in AP Bio, I have hit a massive road block that I just cannot step over. We are up to Genetics (chapter 14 in Campbell/Reece) and I do not get it one bit. I cannot do probability for the life of me, and I am just stressing so much. The textbook didn't teach me anything, along with my teacher who gives bad lectures. Are there any online resources that greatly outline the basics of Genetics (just Mendel and the gene idea). I would love a bunch of visuals that show all the crosses and everything. Thank you so much.

I thought it might be avian bird flu since it's written that it's a fairly recent pathogen and is also prevalent in Thailand. However, the neurodegenerative symptoms don't match up. Could anyone help me make a diagnosis?

Alrighty, I was doing my homework and I ran across this problem that I can't figure out, just cyber slap me if this is a really dumb question. It takes 585 J of energy to raise the temperature of 125.6 g of mercury from 20.0*C to 55.1*C. Calculate the specific heat capacity and the molar heat capacity of mercury. :confused:

500 millilitres of acetic acid is in solution and is then diluted yielding a 5 percent solution. What is the volume of said solution. (Note Concentration of acetic acid is 17.4 mol/l). V1C1 = C2V2 500ml x 17.4 mol/l = 0.05 g/ml x V2 This is what I have for an equation but I think I took a step in the wrong direction. Help?

A bucket of water is swung in a vertical circle. Explain qualitatively why the water in the bucket does not fall out. My model answer then explained that If the speed of the rotation is high enough, the weight of the water alone in the bucket is not enough to provide for the centripetal force required. A force will be exerted by the bottom of the bucket on the water for the water in the bucket to continue to move in a circle. By Newton's third Law, the water pushes against the bottom of the bucket and thus stays in the bucket. What does the bold text really mean? So what happens if the weight of teh water alone in the bucket is just enough? And if my speed …

ok im doing this question and i am totally lost. once again got the Q&A but no working out so i cant follow the steps to HOW they got the answer. So here it is Ammonia is produced in the Harber Process under conditions of high pressure and moderate temperture. If 13.05L of an equilibrium mix at 550'C (823K) and 200kPa presurre consists of 3.00 L of nitrogen and 9.00L of hydrogen and 1.50L of ammonia calculate teh density of (g) mixture.. im not sure where to start or what formulas to use.

So I'm really confused about what the side products would be if you dehydrate 2-methyl-2-butanol by using sulfuric acid as a catalyst. I know that there will be 2 products: 2-methyl-2-butene (major) and 2-methyl-1-butene (minor). But what about side products? I don't know how to determine which side reactions are possible. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.
