$15 paypal to first person to solve before midnight (math)

[computerpro3]

I have this ridiculous project due tomorrow I've been working on for 2 weeks and I'm on the last part. For some reason, my ti-83 simply can't handle this. I keep getting overflow errors, dim mismatch, invalid data set, and the window is all screwed up. What a useless piece of equipment.

Anyway, the first person who solves this for me along with a simple explanation (I have to put it into a few powerpopint slides) will receive $15 paypal tonight or tomorrow. Rumor has it the program Maple solves it with no problem, but I don't have it.

Funny enough, my teacher was wicked lazy and instead of making up a project, he copied one verbatim from google. Here is the exact problem which I found online:

ROLLER COASTER PROJECT
Sketch a "roller coaster" polynomial on a coordinate polynomial on a coordinate plane. Be sure to illustrate your x-axis and y-axis scale. Include the following information about your "roller coaster".

1. All zeros or roots of your polynomial; be sure to include at least one of each of the following on your illustration: double root, more than one real root, and imaginary roots.

2. State the domain of your graph (that is, the actual ride).

3. State the range of your graph ( that is, the actual ride).

4. Color the graph blue where the polynomial is increasing and red where the polynomial is decreasing.

5. Give the factored form of your roller coaster. Be as creative as you'd like to be. Your project will be graded for accuracy, neatness, originality, and creativity.

Thanks.

If your ti-83 can't handle it, you should try the google calculator. It's GOOGLE! If it can't handle it, nothing can.

 

[mugs]

I have no interest in doing that.

 

[us3rnotfound]

ok, lock it up

 

[StormRider]

That seems really easy but unfortunately, I never used those types of calculators when I studied electrical engineering in my days so I can't help you on how to program this.

paypal me $15, i will think about it

 

[Manuwell]

I want a down payment of $5.00 even before thinking about it.

 

[computerpro3]

imagine if I was that dumb? Answers first, money second. Heatware is perfect under computerpro3 if you don't believe me.

 

[Looney]

How do we know you'll pay though? Would you be willing to do an escrow account?

 

[StormRider]

It has to be done on a TI calculator? What about something like Java?

 

[computerpro3]

it can be done on anything; I just need a graph and roots/zeroes of a "coaster" that has the required roots.

Perfect heatware under computerpro3, perfect ebay under reader17. Escrow for $15? Plus, you have to pay a fee for escrow. It's just like buying a piece of hardware...how do you know you'll get the hardware?

ROLLER COASTER PROJECT
Sketch a "roller coaster" polynomial on a coordinate polynomial on a coordinate plane. Be sure to illustrate your x-axis and y-axis scale. Include the following information about your "roller coaster".

1. All zeros or roots of your polynomial; be sure to include at least one of each of the following on your illustration: double root, more than one real root, and imaginary roots. N/A

2. State the domain of your graph (that is, the actual ride). You already know that

3. State the range of your graph ( that is, the actual ride). It depends

4. Color the graph blue where the polynomial is increasing and red where the polynomial is decreasing. Blue is ok, but I'ld try purple

5. Give the factored form of your roller coaster. Be as creative as you'd like to be. Your project will be graded for accuracy, neatness, originality, and creativity.

Thanks.[/quote] You're welcome

For the $, I prefer money orders
(any S&H fee ?)

 

[UncleWai]

Word of advice, don't let Loke see this thread!

 

[FallenHero]

just make a graph of sine and call it a day.

That was funny!!!!....not

 

[fire400]

damn you are lazy... paying someone to do your homework?

I'm sure someone would have done it for you or given you first steps to getting this done if you didn't say Paypal and 15 bucks in the first place.

it can be done on a graphing calc, could probably even be done on power toys calculator from microsoft.

requires some understanding of physics and standard level of math.

works better if you put your plans on paper first so you don't have to keep starting over so much. gl

;;edit;; just go find help from another math teacher at your school

 

[StormRider]

I won't do your homework but here's a hint. Start off with the factored form -- you will know the roots automatically.

Differentiate the equation and solve for the zeroes to know where the inflection points occurs.

Find the derivative between the inflection points to know whether the function is increasing or decreasing and color the plot accordingly.

Unfortunatly, we have to keep it to algebra 2 level. I'm not in AP math either, only english. It's simply a standard level Algebra 2 course. Also keep in mind that I never took physics, and will be majoring in piano performance (hence never will take advanced math), and have been working on projects 13 hours straight now.....

I simply don't know how and don't have the time to do it, that's all.

I wish i knew about inflection points and sine curves and differentiating, but it's simply not in our curriculumn.

You just have to make up a polynomial with complex, real, and double roots? Am I failing to see the difficulty in this? I don't want to make up an answer before I understand what the hell you're supposed to be doing.

 

[daveymark]

in the process of outsourcing this to guru.com for $5, will post your answer shortly for the $15.

Yes, but it has to have the appearance of a roller coaster. That's what's getting me stuck; whenever I go to graph the polynomials I'm pulling out of my ass, the calculator locks up or errors out. When it does work, it looks like a giant U (can't see the imaginary roots).

edit: can't do cubic; has to be a 6th degree polynomial or higher.

Heh if it works I don't care. I'm so bad at math it's not even funny. 800/800 on verbal section of SAT and 600/800 math. And the only ones I got right I plugged and chugged or just spelled words with the multiple choice letters. Ouch.
