Equations and Inequations

Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.

Linear Functions

A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Textbook Question

Chapter 8.6, Problem 7E

Let x(t) and y(t) be Bézier curves from Exercise 5, and suppose the combined curve has C² continuity (which includes C¹ continuity) at p₃. Set x″(1) = y″(0) and show that p₅ is completely determined by p₁, p₂, and p₃. Thus, the points p₀, …, p₃ and the C² condition determine all but one of the control points for y(t).

Calculate the first derivative of a general cubic Bezier curve .We have a Bezier curve C1, that is described from the control points P0(0,0) , P1(3,3,),P2(6,3), and P3(8,1), and curve C2 that is described from the control point P4,P5,P6(11,5) and P7(15,9). Draw the curve C1 approximately and a control polygon

(15) Determine whether or not the functions y₁ 4x³, y2 = π, y3 = 12x², and y4 = 24x are linearly independent on any interval. Show all work to support your answer.

2. Consider the function y(x) = 5x over the interval [0, 10]. (a) If the points A(0, y(0)), B(5, y(5)), and C(10, y(10)) are on the curve represented by the above function, find the slope of the lines (secants) AB, and AC, respectively. (b) If x represents time and y represents the displacement of a particle moving along a line, what is the physical meaning of your results to part (a)? (c) Now consider a point D(10 – h, y(10 – h)) on the curve represented by the given function, find the slope of the line DC. (d) As h → 0, what is the limiting value of your result to part (c)?
