Re: A Mathematical Emergency.

To: Jay-qu. Due to circumstances beyond my control, I can't post in LaTex at this time. However, if you keep in mind that operations are to be performed from the intermost parenthesis outward, then you should have no trouble understanding the identity:

(T/T)a^x=T(a/T)^((xln(a)/(ln(T))-1)/(ln(a)/(ln(T))-1)).

You know, when I was in high school back in the 60's, we didn't have personal computers, calculators and the like. We used pencil, paper and slide rule to solve our math problems, and although my generation developed much of the technology in use today, we never became overly dependent on it. Just for the fun of it, why don't you give it a go and see if you can verify the above identity without me putting it into LaTex?

Don.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
