how would I make it in that form
isolate y...
yes
no
first identify the slope of the original line from the slope intercept form
remember, NO x in the slope itself
if i seen an x in your response, its an immediate no
slope of y=mx+b isn't mx
it would be 5 right
no
are you implying
$$y = \frac{x}{2} + 5$$
$$y = \frac{x}{7} + 5$$
$$y = \frac{x}{123} + 5$$
$$y = \frac{x}{53445} + 5$$
$$y = \frac{x}{\text{this doesn't matter}} + 5$$
all have the same slope?
ℝamonov
no
(you actually did something worse)
try identifying the slope again
don't overthink
you've done stuff like this many times already
what i thought is just that whatever m value replaces the m in y=mx+b would be the slope
m represents the entire value being multiplied to x
$$5 \cdot x \redneq \frac{-5x}{3}$$
5 is NOT the slope of $y = \frac{-5x}{3} + \frac83$
ℝamonov
o
Wouldn't I need to use the slope formula to find the slope of original linear eq
and if thats the case I only have one x value and one y value
no
you have you equation in the form
$$y = mx + b$$
identify the coefficient of $x$, the value being multiplied to $x$ and that's your slope. don't overthink
ℝamonov
$\red{\text{what?}} \cdot x = \frac{-5x}{3}$
ℝamonov
-5/3 is the slope
yes
now that you have the slope of the original line
apply
I know perpendicular lines have the product of the slope as -1
to get the slope of the desired perp line
remember, NO x in the slope itself
if i seen an x in your response, its an immediate no
how about this without the x
then, yes.
simplify that
simplify further
yes

Can someone help me with finding the equation
Well, where does the graph 'end'?
normally for y = sqrt(x) you have the point (0, 0)
if x is any lower then the sqrt is undefined

how is factorial of negative numbers defined
With gamma function
Gamma function. Defined for everything but negative integers
factorial of negative integers are all infinity/-inf any way you extend it
Negative integers*
Generalizes the factorial
am I supposed to capitalize negative or
Btw what's the "not very ppl" role ?
It sets your nickname colour to white
Take it if you wanna remove your role's colour
i see imm a high school student, so i was just curious about the factorial oof -ve integers
because x! = (x+1)!/(x+1)
so (-1)! = 0!/0 = 1/0
If you aren't in calc, then don't bother for now
one sec
Gonna find a vid on the topic
ok thanks man
then every other negative integer is some finite number times 1/0
In this video, I walk through the derivation of an extension of the factorial function that works for any number: fractional, irrational, and even complex! This turns out to be a very important function, known as the gamma function, which has many surprising connections, one of which I explore in the last chapter of the video.
The animations in...
Although the proof that @frank apex provided works for your level too
It's not gamma, but it's another formula

which method is fit to solve this?
Isn't that just 1/n + 6/n^4 though?
every term is > 1/n
And the series of 1/n diverging is an already famous fact
harmonic
most famous fact of all math
Quite debatable
i prove this ?
^
I am objectively always correct
thanks u two lol u guys have been helping me a lot tonight
I don't think that would come as a surprise to non-math people though
They may say "Oh, you are adding infinitely many numbers, why would you expect to get a finite result"
okayy
how do you know when to use telescoping?
when you have sum of f(n) - f(n + x)
or similar
what do u help ppl on here for?
just curious
i greatly appreciate it

Could someone tell me what function you use to see if this integral converges?
You need to use the comparison theorem but I don't know what function would be bigger/smaller so that I can prove it converges/diverges
could you not use the method where you solve the integral using a variable in place of infinity for the upper bound and then finding the limit of that as the variable approaches infinity? thats how i learned it
you can but you can't integrate this function so you need to use the comparison theorem
I'm sadly on the buss so can't double check but wouldnt it be possible to integrate if it was x to the power of 2 instead of 4. And this would be a smaller function. So maybe works
Since the nominator would be the inner derivitive of the denominator?
numerator?
I've checked the answer it's divergent
so you need a function smaller than the one given
would using x^2 not produce a function that is bigger than a function with x^4?
or would it be smaller?
Yes it would sorry I was thinking too fast XD. Can you adjust the numerator so it becomes the inner derivative?
how would i do that exactly?
So x to the power to 3 in the numerator might work
okay
i see
but would that not still produce a function bigger than the one we started off with?
Damn that's true... I should stop doing maths on the buss XD
It's not as simple as removing the squreroot right?
i was just thinking about that
let me see
but would that be integratable function?
actually we could get rid of the x right
so just x^4 on the bottom
Sorry was no help but I gotta run. I hope you find your answer. There are online integrators that explain steps sometimes. You can always try one of those and see if it knows what to do
don't worry about it, I think that should work thought with the x^4
something as simple as 1/x should work just fine
if you observe carefully, you can see that (x-1)/sqrt(x^4-x) is asymptotically equivalent to 1/x near very large x
the hard part left (which actually can be proved using the fact above) is to prove that (x-1)/sqrt(x^4-x) is larger than 1/x for x in(1, infty)
because at 1 they both tend to infinity?
alright, but you could kind of just brute force some values in near and further away from 1 if you wanted though right?
no, they both tend to 0 when x tends to infty, but that's not how you prove asymptotic equivalence
sure that's also a good idea, but that idea is not foolproof yet
but they are both undefined at x = 1 right
dont forget about the monotonicity of functions
how would you prove this
no, 1/x is perfectly defined at x=1
ohhh yeah your right sorry
basically, with some algebra, you can prove that the integrand will behave like x/sqrt(x^4), which is just 1/x
but anyway, you already got an idea of how to prove that (x-1)/sqrt(x^4-x) is larger than 1/x, you should go with yours
alright, I'm only a year 1 undergrad so I'm guessing I won't quite need to look into this yet
sure
anyway, with your idea, you would need to also proof that both functions are monotonic on (1, infty)
just to double, you mean that both functions are increasing
(or decreasing)
a better statement would be both functions are always/strictly increasing or decreasing

just by substituing in pi/11 I can prove its a root
but Im not sure how to find the second one
I know by taking away pi from the first root, will give you an equal root, and by adding 2pi to every root gets you consecutive ones
but ive tried doing that with pi/11 but it doesnt give a correct answer
and ive tried doing that with the sin() i get in the RHS when i substitute in pi/11
but nothing gets the correct answer, so im unsure of what to do
@urban girder Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
That's not proof, that's verifying
I meant 'show' as the question asked, its just a figure of speech I didnt mean it in that way
no you dont need to apologize, I understand that in maths everything is much more specific, so I should be more careful with my language
So anyway did you try letting rhs equal to 0?
Ok and
and then i took arcsin of both sides to get 21theta/2 = theta/2
then that leaves 21theta = theta
and that just simplifies to 20 theta = 0
Theta can't be 0 for that formula
The formula doesn't work for any theta value that is kf the form 2npi
Alright don't worry
If you like i can send a picture of thr markscheme
I dont understand what they did
but it probably would help you
When A≠B then sin A = sin B implies pi-A=B
yes
So
pi - 21theta/2 = theta/2?
or vice versa
so pi = 11theta
so theta = pi/11
or
pi -1/2theta = 21theta/2
wait that gives the same thing
2pi + 21theta/2 = theta/2
maybe?
because the value would be equal
that would give 2pi = -10theta
so theta = -pi/5
Not that too
or we could do 2pi + theta/2 = 21theta/2
but that would be the same methodology as the above
that would give theta = pi/5
which is the right answer!
so the reason that worked, is because you had to change one value of sin, but not the other
so they both dont stay equivalent?
so thats why i cant add 2pi to both sides
so -pi/5 i assume is a root
just not in the domain given in the question
Yeah it's not in domain
what other cases would that method be used?
is it just for questions like that where it wants extra roots of a fraction with sin on the top and bottom

is this definition of an upper bound using logic symbols correct? the double arrow is used to indicate a biconditional (not logical equivalence).
looks fine
or should i use logical equivalence instead of biconditional? because it must be a tautology, right?
like it must be true

how i can verify this indenty
what have you tried so far?
1 - cos(2x) isn't the same as 1 - cos^2(x)
consider the double angle identity for cosine
this ?
that's one of the forms
there are 3 main ones, (potentially some obscure ones)
your source should have all 3
though equivalent, one of the forms,
the form that leads to the cancellation of the constant will be most efficient here
I don't understand
which part
how i get /2
plug the form with sine only into
1 - cos(2x)
and what do you get
1-2sin^2z?
x
1-cos8x
no
forget about your problem for a sec
and focus only on the question i'm asking you
i cant see
cos(2x) = 1 - 2sin^2(x)
plug that into
1 - cos(2x)
and what do you get
these are simple instructions, don't overthink what I'm asking you to do
since
cos(2x) = 1 - 2sin^2(x)
replace the cos(2x) in 1 - cos(2x) with (1 - 2sin^2(x))
and simplify
and tell me what you get
not helping
Cos²x-sin²x
they already have that stuff
they already have that stuff
1-cos2theta = 2sin^2 theta
how i can simoplify this sin^2(8x) = (1 - cos(8x))/(1 + cos(8x))
is the same
Oh wait
sin^2(8x) = 4sin^2(4x)cos^2(4x)
Do the right side
uh huh...that's true and then?
sin^2(8x) = (1 - cos(8x))/(1 + cos(8x)) ?
I don't think they are equal
sin^2(8x) = 4(1 - cos(8x))/4(1 + cos(8x))
Multiply numerator and denominator by 1-cos8x
where's division coming from
You get sin²8x/(1+cos8x)²
why is
(1 - cos(8x)) being divided by (1 + cos(8x))
4(1 - cos(8x))/4*(1 + cos(8x))
simplifies to
(1 - cos(8x))(1 + cos(8x))
and what happened to the task i set for you
why did you go off on your own and do something else
Chill
don't tell me to chill
I really didn't understand and I asked chat gpt to help me, I don't understand trigometry
Ok then
don't use chatgpt for math
Umm
these are simple instructions, don't overthink what I'm asking you to do
since
cos(2x) = 1 - 2sin^2(x)
replace the cos(2x) in 1 - cos(2x) with (1 - 2sin^2(x))
and simplify
and tell me what you get
which part of that don't you understand
do that and only that and nothing else, don't go off on your own and do other stuff
1 - cos(2x) = 2sin^2(x) ?
dividing
a
$\sin^2(x) = \frac{1-\cos(2x)}{2}$
ℝamonov
for these types of proofs, its usually easier to start from the side that looks more complex, in this case the right side
$$\frac{1-\cos(8x)}{2}$$
apply the same identity as before, simplify and you should get the desired result

I am working on a linear transformation problem and could use some help. The problem involves finding a matrix for a linear transformation from $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ to $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ that maps the unit sphere $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=1$ onto the spheroid in the attached figure. The problem has two parts:
(a) Finding the volume of the spheroid.
(b) Determining the value of $c$ for which the transformation leaves the volume unchanged when $a=3/4$ and $b=2/3$.
I have attempted to solve the problem by finding the equation of the spheroid and then using it to find the matrix of the transformation. However, I am stuck on finding the equation of the spheroid and would appreciate any guidance on how to proceed.
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!

@primal galleon Has your question been resolved?
@primal galleon Has your question been resolved?
@ocean hawk
I'm trying to understand how to map the unit sphere onto a spheroid, but I'm having trouble following the advice I was given. They mentioned that I should think about stretching or shrinking the unit sphere along the x, y, and z axes by factors of a, b, and c, respectively. The equations they provided are:
x' = ax
y' = by
z' = cz
They also mentioned that I can express this using a matrix A. To check that I'm calculating the volume correctly using the determinant, I should use the formula for the volume of a spheroid, which is:
(4/3)πabc
To keep the volume unchanged during the mapping, abc=1, and I have the values of a and b for the problem.
I did a similar problem to this but in 2D, and stretching the unit circle to an ellipse
for that, the matrix is simply $\begin{pmatrix} p & 0 \ 0 & q \end{pmatrix}$. arguably it is about the same except your matrix will be 3x3
cwatson
So if I understand correctly, the reason why that matrix is used is that it represents a diagonal matrix with the scaling factors along the x and y axes. In other words, it stretches or shrinks the circle along the x and y directions independently, with a factor of p along the x-axis and q along the y-axis?
For the 3D case, the matrix would be a diagonal matrix with scaling factors along the x, y, and z axes. This is because the matrix needs to describe how the unit sphere is stretched or shrunk along each of these axes to become the desired spheroid shape.
yes. if p = q, it will still be a circle, just w/ a different radius
So if p=q, then the matrix becomes a scalar multiple of the identity matrix, which means that the scaling factors along the x and y directions are equal. In other words, the circle is stretched or shrunk by the same factor in both the x and y directions.
@ocean hawk So we can construct the diagonal matrix A as:
A =
|a 0 0|
|0 b 0|
|0 0 c|
So, the matrix A for the given transformation is:
A =
|3/4 0 0 |
|0 2/3 0 |
|0 0 c |
To find the volume of the spheroid, we can use the formula given in the question:
V = (4/3)πabc
Substituting the given values, we get:
V = (4/3)π(3/4)(2/3)c = (1/2)πc
Therefore, the volume of the spheroid is (1/2)πc.
Is this correct?
So the question was for which value of c the volume of the spheroid will be unchanged. Since we have 2/3 * pi * c, how do we know there’s no change?
unchanged from the unit sphere's volume.
@primal galleon Has your question been resolved?
@ocean hawk Let me know if this is correct:
The vectors $\mathbf{e}_1 = (1,0,0)$, $\mathbf{e}_2 = (0,1,0)$, and $\mathbf{e}_3 = (0,0,1)$. So any vector in $\mathbb{R}^3$ can be expressed as a linear combination of these vectors.
The first column of A is the image of $\mathbf{e}_1$, the second column is the image of $\mathbf{e}_2$, the third column of A is the image of $\mathbf{e}_3$. So, the image of $\mathbf{e}_1$ is $(a,0,0)$, the image of $\mathbf{e}_2$ is $(0,b,0)$, and the image of $\mathbf{e}_3$ is $(0,0,c)$.
From the figure, we can see that the spheroid has been stretched along the $x$-axis by a factor of $a=3/4$, along the $y$-axis by a factor of $b=2/3$, and along the $z$-axis by a factor of $c$. Therefore, the matrix $A$ is given by:
$$A=\left(\begin{array}{lll}
a & 0 & 0 \
0 & b & 0 \
0 & 0 & c
\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
3 / 4 & 0 & 0 \
0 & 2 / 3 & 0 \
0 & 0 & c
\end{array}\right)$$
To find the value of $c$ such that the volume of the unit sphere is mapped onto the spheroid without changing, we need to find the determinant of $A$ which represents the scaling factor for the volume. Since we want the volume to remain the same, this determinant must be equal to 1. Thus, we have:
$$\begin{aligned}
& \operatorname{det}(A)=\operatorname{det}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
3 / 4 & 0 & 0 \
0 & 2 / 3 & 0 \
0 & 0 & c
\end{array}\right)=(3 / 4) . \
& (2 / 3) \cdot c=1
\end{aligned}$$
So c = 2.
Therefore, the matrix $A$ for the linear transformation that maps the unit sphere onto the spheroid is:
$$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
3 / 4 & 0 & 0 \
0 & 2 / 3 & 0 \
0 & 0 & 2
\end{array}\right)$$
The volume of the spheroid can then be found using the formula for the volume of an ellipsoid:
$$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi a b c=\frac{4}{3} \pi\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)(2)=\frac{4}{3} \pi$$
dgh
I forgot we're not supposed to use a=3/4, b=2/3 until part b, but only want an expression for volume in terms of a, b, c.
$$A=\left(\begin{array}{lll}
a & 0 & 0 \
0 & b & 0 \
0 & 0 & c
\end{array}\right)$$
$$\operatorname{det}(A)=a b c=1$$
$$c=\frac{1}{a b}$$
$$A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}
a & 0 & 0 \
0 & b & 0 \
0 & 0 & \frac{1}{a b}
\end{array}\right)$$
$$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi a b c=\frac{4}{3} \pi\left(\frac{1}{a b}\right)=\frac{4}{3 a b} \pi$$
dgh
I think that all looks right
I was told “part a doesn't give you anything that would suggest abc = 1”
What am I doing wrong
They said remove c = 1/(ab), since that's wrong, and also remove A = [a 0 0; 0 b 0; 0 0 1/ab] since that depends on c=1/(ab) and is thus also wrong. Just stop at V = (4/3) pi abc. You did write the correct answer, you just also have a lot of incorrect stuff in the middle and also after it.
I don't understand what this means
I suspect they just want me to write this: @ocean hawk
Where det(A) is just abc, where the volume of the image of the unit sphere is (4/3)πabc. If I'm still interpreting it wrong then I'll just return to this problem later.
@primal galleon Has your question been resolved?
yes I think the volume of the spheroid for part (a) should just be (4/3) pi * abc. I overlooked that you set c = 1/(ab)
I think c=2 is correct, though

how do i prove its convergence/divergence
<@&286206848099549185>
what test am i supposed to use here
try to take limit of that as n approaches infinity
should be enough
$\lim_{n\to\infty}\sin\left(\tan^{-1}\left(n\right)\right)$
MathIsAlwaysRight
you sure?
tan^-1(n) isnt 1
oh pi/2
and sin(pi/2)?
1
yep, so at infinity it will be summing up ones
so via divergence test divergent?
I'm not sure how is this test called, but I know it exists and proves divergence
btw dyk the different tests to prove convergence/divergence
oh yeah, its called divergence test
there's alot, and I need to know which expressions r best to use what test
yeah, I know I just dont remember those names
anyways this test is probably the easiest
Divergence Test, Integral Test, Comparison Test, Limit Comparison Test, Alternating Series Test, Root and Ratio Test
our first exam half the class failed
thats a lot
btw when I make functions as power series, when I derive, why does the interval of convergence get smaller?
idk, sorry

2cos²(x) - 3sin(x) - 3 = 0
2(1 - sin²(x)) - 3sin(x) - 3 = 0
2 - 2sin²(x) - 3sin(x) - 3 = 0
-2sin²(x) - 3sin(x) - 1 = 0
IF sin(x) = y:
-2y² - 3y - 1 = 0
y1 = -1, y2 = -½
THEN:
sin(x) = -1:
x = -90° + 360°n
sin(x) = -½:
x = 330° + 360°n,
x = 90° - 330° + 360°n = -240° + 360°n;
2sin²(x) + 3cos(x) - 3 = 0
2(1 - cos²(x)) + 3cos(x) - 3 = 0
-2cos²(x) + 3cos(x) - 1 = 0
cos(x) = -1:
x = 180° + 360°n;
cos(x) = -½:
x = 330° + 360°n,
x = -330° + 360°n;
Could somebody check if these two are correct? I use symbolab to check the solutions, but it gives me different answers for the same roots of the quadratic equation even though I use formulas my teacher gave me.
why are you subtracting in the last step??
In which equation?
the first one
That's what my formula says the two solutions are
the
x = 90° - 330° + 360°n = -240° + 360°n;
why are you doing that
what formula are you looking at that's telling you to do stuff like that
Idk if symbolab is wrong or my formulas. That's why I asked here, lol
The teacher often gives us wrong formulas by mistake, so idk
Oh yeah, it's 180, my bad, but what's wrong with the second one? It also gives me different answers 🤔
Oof
Forgot it's cosine so the values will be completely different
Alright I need to pay more attention
🤦♂️
I just copied the degrees from the previous one without even realizing
Thx
Alright, I got it now. Thanks a lot, I'll be more careful.

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
1 step
you are given info about the sums of terms of the AP
start by applying the formula for that
what is bro saying 🔥🔥🔥⁉️⁉️⁉️
ion got a
uhh
first numba
or
idk the
q or sum
idk what to do bro
are you aware about sum of n terms of an ap
it is n/2(2a+(n-1)d))
Well, its clearly mentioned S20 so it requires you to know formula for sum
the 20th member in the progression
Okay, then you don't need that formula
S20=140 so plug in n=20 and obtain a linear equation in a and d
a+(20-1)d=140
then its a bracket typa equastion or sum?
and what after that

Back to your question, my guess is yes. But it's been forever since of done stats, so I don't know the exact definition for reasonable measure of central tendency

mah mind just be foggy so idrk likeee the difference too well other than numbers go brr
ill try all of em rq
In statistics, a central tendency (or measure of central tendency) is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.Colloquially, measures of central tendency are often called averages. The term central tendency dates from the late 1920s.The most common measures of central tendency are the arithmetic mean, the median, and the mode. ...

I’m assuming you want to get the exact values here
i think so
the question asking fro each function value and general solution
is the function values what i did?
So
I’m not sure exactly what answers it wants
For me, they wanted the answers to be the solutions in radians
But you could also have them in degrees
Nonetheless I think the next step for you should be to consider the quadrants and the angles you have
So for cos, do you know what quadrants it will be positive in?
i odkt realy know wher eelse it could be
60 degrees is the first and is 0,1 if that has to do with anytningand is positive
Okay let’s think about it like this
You have your unit circle and your four triangles
Which quandrants would adjacent/hypotenuse be positive in and which would be negative?
It’s important to note that the hypotenuse is always positive
You can guess if you’d like
okay sorry i was checking something
No worries
im a little confused
are you reffering the unit circle itself@to be 4 triangles
?
2cos(theta)-1=0, so 2cos(theta)=1, cos(theta)=1/2, so theta = 60 degrees or 300 degrees.
Also, tan(theta)+1=0, so tan(theta)=-1, theta = 135 degrees or 315 degrees
@winter dirge
Have you been shown the basics of what a 30, 45 and 60 degree triangle look like in the unit circle?
yea
tan inverse of -1 is -45 though
hows you get both ofnthose nunbers
We’ll get there steph
oh ok
I’m taking you through the whole process
So those triangles is what I want you to think about
yes it converts them to radians
okay
Let me draw really fast
sounds good
So these triangles in these quadrants are all 60 degrees. We know cos is positive (since the answer is positive 1/2) so looking at this, which quandrants would contain the positive cos?
1 and 4?
Exactly
So now, how we determine what the values are for the solution is to use the degrees of the triangle
is it positive since the 1/2 / 0.5 is pistive?
We know a 60 degree triangle leads to a cos of 1/2
okay
yes i do
so woukd it be the 2 cos answers on the outside
then
or just the 2 on the inside with pi
Depends if your teacher is okay with degrees or wants it in radians
But degrees would be 60 and 300. But you can convert them into radians (which it looks like you know how)
she will want radians
Okay, so do you know how to convert these degrees to radians?
yes but
i dont know if its the one with pi or not
i did the outside since its cos position the one on the left
You could always try both
Oh wow! So it looks like general solution is degrees
i dont understand why we add 180 and 360 though
Okay so
This is sin(0)=-1/2
So if we think about sin being negative
Opposite over hypotenuse
Which quadrants will that be in?
3 and 4?
210 and 330
Sin will be 1/2 when its a 30 degree triangle
No your answer is because its cos
It depends for what problem you’re solving
In your case:
- cos(0) = 1/2
- cos will be 1/2 if it is a 60 degree triangle
- cos will be positive in the first and fourth quadrant.
- 60+0 (for the first quadrant) and 360-60 (for the fourth quadrant).
Just to summary the key points here
The reason sin -1/2 is different is because of the different quadrants and different degree triangle
i see
so for the final answer in general solution
would this be good for the first?
and also pi/3
Do you think you can solve tan by yourself or would you like me to run through it really fast?
i think i got@it
Alright sweet!
so since its negative
first is 315
and woukd it be 45 degrees as well or accross since its negative?
So you’ve got the right idea so far. What you’re missing is that you need to figure out the quadrant in which tan will be negative
So think about opposite over adjacent
If you have a pos/pos or a neg/neg, that won’t turn into a negative tangent.
oh shoot youre rihh fr r
right
so it is 4th quad
a d
and
3rd?
im not sure
or 2 and3
Okay so let’s think about this logically
You have your four 45 degree triangles
I labeled the hypotenuse as always positive
but left the opposite and adjacent blank

can someone please help me with this I have been struggling on it and would appreciate any help
diagram suggests it's equilateral triangle
can you prove that
idk how to pls help
I would find the vertical component of LO assuming it's an equilateral triangle
which is LO/2 = r/2
then the triangle is 3/2r tall
and the bottom segment is r*sqrt(3) as well
does that work out?

If I am trying to calculate the minimum grade required on a third exam to have a total exam average of at least 90% in order to be exempt from the final exam, how would I go about solving that?
Right now I have 92.15685 + 85.88235 + x = ≥ 90.00000
