Homework Statement
The wings have a total surface area of 250 m^2. The air above the wing is 300 m/s and the air below the wing is 250 m/s. The ambient air pressure is around 0.5 atm. The airplane is descending at 20 m/s, therefore there is an upward drag on the wings.

Okay, so that makes sense, the factor thing, but now it seems we have two unknowns...How would I get the polynomial from its factors, given two unknowns?
Unless taking the derivative is the key?
Find a polynomial p(t) of degree 6 which has a zero of multiplicity 2 at t = 1 and a zero of multiplicity 3 at
t = 2, and also satisfying: p(0) = 2 and p`(0) = 1. What is the other root of p(t)?
Attempt at solution:
zero of multiplicity 2 at t =1 implies (t-1)^2 is a factor or p(1) = 0...

Question 1:
Let v = (a, b, c)T be a column vector which represents a coordinate vector of a polynomial in P2 with
respect to the Bernstein basis. Find the 4 × 3 matrix which transforms v to the standard basis of P3.
(Hint: First transform v to...
a function f, that maps from the Cartesian Product of the positive integers to the positive integers. where
f(x,y) = 2^(x - 1) * (2y - 1).
I have to show that this function is both one-to-one and onto. I started trying to prove that it is onto, showing that there exists an n such that...
okay, so by observation, I can determine the matrix [0, 1, 0; 0,1,1;1,0,1] multiplied by the vector [1;2;3] is equal to the vector [2;5;4]
I am not understanding how to solve this, I understand 1 a1 + 2 a2 + 3 a3 = [2, 5, 4]
Does that mean a1 = [2;0;0]... a2 = [0; 5/2;0] and a3 = [0;0;4/3]?
Homework Statement
If possible, find a basis a = {a1, a2, a3} of P2(R) such that...
[2 + 5x + 4x^2]a = [1, 2, 3], [1 + x + x^2]a = [4,1,2] and [x + x^2]a = [3, -5, 1]
2. The attempt at a solution
Basically, we have something like Ax = b for each of these, right?
A* [2,5,4] =...
Homework Statement
Find bases for the following subspaces of F^5:
W1 = {(a1, a2, a3, a4, a5) E F^5 : a1 - a3 - a4 = 0}
and
W2 = {(a1, a2, a3, a4, a5) E F^5: a2 = a3 = a4 and a1 + a5 = 0}
2. The attempt at a solution
Well, I understand a basis is the maximum amount of vectors...
Homework Statement
Split the function into partial fractions. 1/(w^4-w^3)Homework Equations
1/(w^4-w^3)
The Attempt at a Solution
I started by factoring the denominator to w^3(w-1) and re-writing the original function as
(Aw^2+Bw+C)/w^3 + D/(w-1) and set it = 1/(w^3(w-1))
I end up with...
