:) I have not taken linear algebra yet (this is for diff eq class) and so most of what you said went over my head. but in lamens terms, i think this is what you are saying:
because the eigenvalue 2 is a repeated root of the equation A-rI = 0, the eigenvectors will not be unique and so it is...
I am little confused about the choice of eigenvectors chosen by my book. I am wondering if an eigenvalue can have multiple eigenvectors and if all are equally correct. Case in point the example below:

A better way to do Probabilities with Chips and Bowls?
Question:
bowl 1 contains 6 red chips and 4 blue chips. 5 chips are selected at random and placed in bowl 2. then 1 chips is drawn from bowl 2. Relative to the hypothesis that this chip is blue, find the conditional probability that 2 red...
Unfortunately, i typed the question verbatim and not sure how to respond to you.
note that the 2/3 upper limit on x was defined by me. I figured that y <1 (from y ≤ 3x/2 < 1). so therefor x cannot be more than 2/3, since y must also be less than 3x/2. for x> 2/3, y>1. e.g. when x=1, y=3/2...
Note: as i was typing this post, i think i figured out the answer but i want to confirm.
Question:

Question:
You have 100 coins. 99 are fair and 1 is double sided. You pick a random coin and flip it 10 times and get 10 heads in a row. What is the probability that you picked the double sided coin?
Response / help needed:
Probablity of picking a 1 sided coin = .01
Probability of heads 10...
I need to do a laplace transform on cos^3 t. I understand laplace but the trig is tripping me up.
cos^3 t = Cos^2 t * Cos t = cos t * (cos 2t + 1)/2 (double angle formula)
so i have (cos t)*(cos 2t)/2 + (cos t)/2.
my book's solution says (cos t)*(cos 2t)/2 = (1/2)(cos (2t+1) + cost...
to elaborate on the question further:
consider the linear equation t^2(y``)-3t(y`)+3y=0 for -inf to inf
Y1 = t and Y2= t^3
Wronskian of Y1 and Y2 equals 2t^3 implying independance.

actually while writing this i think i answered my own question.The DE must be in staqndard...
Hi,
I just want to clarify something written in my textbook - a contradiction of sorts.
My book says, if i have two functions, Y1 Y2, and their wronskian is 0 at any point on the interval I, the functions are dependant functions.
However, while doing a problem, I found the wronskian to...

hm interesting. my calc book includes the f(x,y,g(x,y))... which in this case would make sense, no? because ultimatwly i need to multiply by the constant i got from stoke's formula
first, thanks so much for bearing with me and being so patient :)
so, basically i have curl*normal = <0,2,1>dot prod<-4,8,1> = 17 = f(x,y,g(x,y)) which is a constant. multiply this by the sqrt of (1+16+64) = 9. So the final is a constant = 153 which i multiply times the area of the circle =...
