(This is similar to the assumption we make when a radical has no index included; that is, we assume [correctly] that the radical is a square root.)What is the natural log?The natural log is the base-e log, where e is the natural exponential, being a number that is approximately ...
But there is one thing in particular that we need to be careful of when thinking in terms of cause and effect, and that is, not to over-explain. When we look back at history, it is often easy to fall into horse-trading and to explain away all past choices with as much sound logic...
Why do we need hyperbolic functions? Why does 1 x 0 = 0? Why does this equation not equal 1? Why can we multiply both sides of an equation? Why does a number raised to the zero power equal one? For the real numbers p, q, r, s, t, u, v, w, x, \left | \begin{matrix}...
“Math Matters,” we knew a link existed between courses completed and income. For instance, they found that even 10 years after people finished high school, those who had completed a calculus class made 65% more in income than other men and women who did not go beyond taking a vocational...
Beware similar mistakes in calculus: we deal with tiny numbers thatlook like zeroto us, but we can’t do math assuming they are (just like treating i like 0). No, we need to “do the math” in the other dimension and convert the results back. ...
often that’s cheap because I have a machine doing it. So the whole approach can be potentially totally different and allows us to, in a sense, throw in much messier types of problems and see what happens without necessarily knowing the techniques in detail that we need to get the answers...
The topic of infinite series may seem unrelated to differential and integral calculus. In fact, an infinite series whose terms involve powers of a variable is a powerful tool that we can use to express functions as “infinite polynomials.” We can use infinite series to evaluate complicated func...

Herein we demonstrate that Osp null mice exhibit both neurological and reproductive deficits: CNS nerve conduction is slowed, hindlimb weakness is conspicuous, and males are sterile. Freeze fracture reveals that tight junction intramembranous...
