<h1>6 was a b----. I couldn’t do part b, so it screwed me over for the rest of the question.</h1>

<p>AND I FORGOT HOW TO DO EULER’S, ***. </p>

<p>The FR section was a total train wreck for me. Hopefully they’ll lower the curve this year.</p>

222

<p>Oh my gentle jesus. I forgot to put dx on my integrals.</p>

<p>Facepalm</p>

223

<p>Euler’s method is just f(x+delta(x)) = f(x) + (dy/dx evaluated at x,f(x))*(delta x).</p>

<p>I thought the infinite series question was a pretty simple one. You didn’t even need to take the derivative of f(x) to get the coefficients of the series. You could have just done series manipulation of the function they gave you in the little intro part of the question (I don’t want to write it because technically we aren’t supposed to be talking about it for about like 36 Hours).</p>

224

<p>i hate to be a prick but we’re not supposed to discuss specific questions…</p>

225

<p>**** son you’ve got me doubting myself too, did i put those damn dx’s</p>

226

<p>are you sure #3 A) was asking for the max y? didn’t it say WHEN is the distance max?</p>

227

<p>i got 4.25 on the euler method? anyone got that?</p>

228

<p>@powerbomb: well the distance max when he hit the water obviously, i dont think they would ask that</p>

229

<p>I also got 4.25. That test was F-ing hard. Well not that hard, but still. There were some stuff I did not get how to do. Argh.</p>

230

<p>i did not get 4.25. i got -3/4 or something.</p>

231

<p>It was 4.25.</p>

232

<p>are we talking about the multiple choice eulers?</p>

233

<p>No, we’re talking about the first FR non-calculator question.</p>

234

<p>do you remember what the initial condition and the dy/dx was? dam… how could i miss that UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHH</p>

235

<p>how exactly does on get to the BC Chat?</p>

236

<p>Ok thanks.</p>

237

go to page 15</p>

238

<p>I was asking about the euler one.</p>

239

<p>yes, i got 4.25 for eulers. and powerbomb, it was asking for max y because i found the “t” value first but then i was like f***…</p>

<p>roflcopter. calc bc was the easiest ap i’d ever taken. what a joke. the last question with taylor e^x was ridic easy</p>
