(1+2/n)n

In the approximation that 2/n <<< 1

(1+2/n)n = 1 + n. 2/n = 3

Is that a suitable approximation, probably not

Not quite...

Rewrite as:

limn->inf(1+2/n)n/2*(1+2/n)n/2

and then make the substitution m=n/2...

* is a binary function. You know nothing about it except that for a and b in the domain of *, a*b is also in the domain.

Given that (a*b)*a = b. Prove that a*(b*a) = b.

y'(x) = 21x^6 - 20x^3 - 6x
y''(x) = 126x^5 - 60x^2 - 6
||y''(5)/|| = too much arithmatic

Is it my turn yet?

Do you mean that a*(b*a) = b for all a and b?

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

I just took the Putnam exam earlier today, and am trying to fight through the alcoholic haze I'm hiding in so that I can remember some of the other problems on the test.


You have a circle of radius 1 in which is enclosed a parabola. Is it possible for the parabola's arc to be longer than 4?
