1/x = y.

>>2479465

don't be a faggot

They don't even try, they just disconnect.

>>2479500

that's the point

>>2479454
ln(x)+C?

integrating 1/x heh that is so easy. if they cant do it on omegle i give up in humanity ^__^

1/x = x^-1 .
Integration therefore is (x^-1+1)/0=(x^0)/0 = infinity.

Altho I'm quite surprised by the trickiness of OPs question :)

>>2479535

it's ln(x) + c but nice try

>>2479535
So, the area under that curve is unsolvable? I dont think so, Tim.

First person I asked, not too bad I guess.

You: I have to do a research for school how smart people are on the internet. So I am going to ask you a question, which is: Can you describe me how the graph of 1/X looks like?
Stranger: are you a maths teacher?
You: No, just a student.
Stranger: ok
You: So, what is it?
Stranger: curve
Stranger: starting from y-axis infinity and ending on x-axis infinity
Stranger: good enough for you?
You: Yes, thank you.
You have disconnected.

>>2479555

i've been doing it for half an hour now and still no one

You can integrate most functions
I can't believe you all still use Riemann Integration
laughinggirls.jpg

>>2479552

Yes, obviously from my description area under 1/x-function diverges into infinity.

eZ pk, /sci/

Why are you people doing it?

>>2479565
>implying you can take indefinite Riemann integra

try harder

You: Describe the shape of the graph y = 1/x
Stranger: pointy
You: no it's actually a curve
Stranger: i disagree sir
You: well you've scored 0/3 marks
You have disconnected.

I asked the question and the Stranger replied "euclidean or non euclidean". I don't know what was he talking about. Looks like the joke was on me ...

Stranger: hi
You: WHAT IS THE SHAPE OF THE GRAPH Y = 1/X ?
Stranger: a curve
You: go on..
Stranger: starting high, going down, starting steep getting shallow
You: and what are the y and x axis intercepts?
Stranger: sorry but it doesn't it goes to infinity
You: THANK YOU
You: now
You: integrate y = 1/x
Stranger: well x
Stranger: must be 1 as anyting raised to power of zero is 1
You: no, i'm sorry
You: it's actually ln(x) + c
Stranger: well that makes sense I suppose
Your conversational partner has disconnected.

You: can you tell me what the integral of 1/x dx is?
Stranger: ln (x) + c and yes i saw that thread faggot

it's ln|x| + c you goddamned idiots

>>2479637

Stranger: whats good
You: the integral of 1/x dx
You: what is it
Stranger: fuck if I know
You: that's what i thought

I think I made him upset

Stranger: hey
Stranger: hey
Stranger: hey
You: If you drop a pen on the moon, what happens
Stranger: hmm
Stranger: well
Stranger: not much
Stranger: is a pen even heavy enough
Stranger: to fall
Stranger: on the moon?
Stranger: well let´s assume it´s a badass titanium pen
Stranger: if it fell
Stranger: I guess it would still not do much
Stranger: probably not even raise any dust
You: It doesn't matter how heavy the pen is, it will still fall at the same speed
Stranger: hmm
Stranger: will it?
You: if it's 10 grams or 10 kgs
You: It will fall at the same speed
Stranger: OK I ovbiously suck at physics
Stranger: IDK just htought about some shit I had heard a long tima ago about mass of the object mattering when it comes to gravity
Stranger: (like when you say "your momma is so fat she has an awn orbit")
You: well yes, the more massive an object, the more gravity it has
You: but the mass of a pen compared to the moon is negligible
Stranger: sooooooo wouldnt the pen fall at least a 0.0000000000000000000001 second faster?
You: no
Stranger: OK I fail so hard I cant even believe
Stranger: I mean
Stranger: AAAH
Stranger: every kid knows that
You: nah its ok
Stranger: fml
Stranger: Im gonna go
Stranger: hit my head

Why are people so bad at describing the graph? Save your self some time and embarassment with your "it goes to infinityz hurpee durp" and just say it's a hyperbola. If they probe further for fucks sake it has asymptotes, x,y=0

You: Hey
Stranger: Hey
You: What's the integrals of 1/x dx?
Stranger: 7
You: nope
You: Try again
Stranger: 7 and a half?
You: Do you know what an "integral" is

You: can I ask you a question
Stranger: sure
You: if one were to drop a pen, while standing on the moon, what would happen to the pen
Stranger: it would fall

What do you consider correct answer ?
Identity ? Identity with respect to composition ?

You: hi
Stranger: heyyy
You: can you integrate 1/x dx?
Stranger: yes logx

That's why the question is good, since it's pretty open.

The answer I would be looking for, though, is something like this:
The subspace of the vector space R^2 defined as
S = {(v_1,v_1)| v_1 e R}

Which is basically just first year linear algebra.

You: hey can u solve this math for me?
You: im doin my hoework

lol it's been more than half a century you faggot just leave the krauts alone already jesus

>>2479955
Well, I am just first year.
The question's composition is probably wrong.

Elaborate on what you would answer
or change with the question to make it more fitting.

integral of 1/x is neither ln(x) + c nor ln(|x|) + c.

Fucking idiots trying to feel smart.

>>2479980
Shut up dude and go to University.
Log and Ln can both represent the same thing
Just Log does not denote which base you want, although usually it is taken for the Natural Log or Log Base 10, however convention differs depending on where you are

If you argue about minor things like this in that kind of manner you may be right eventually but you have proven that you are unable to have a civil conversation with another human being. Srsly, have fun being pathetic losers for the rest of your life.

>>2480006
That thing with characteristic function is bullshit as well if you want to be pedantic. Giving just an anti derivative isn't the same as solving integral, for you also have to give open interval where the derivation of anti-derivative of f(x) is f(x), thus the proper answer to "integral of 1/x" is ln|x| + a on (-inf, 0) and ln|x| + b on (0, inf), a,b from R.

That's what the char. function achieves.
I can write your above thing as

>>2480105
you obviously are retarded, because you fucking repeated what I said, fucktard. Trying to feel smart because of chicken shit like this is fucking pathetic.

And if you're trying to be anal about something you yourself don't even get right, that makes it so much more pathetic. THAT was what I wanted to convey, fucking idiot.

>>2480287

Sorry to take away the last bit of dignity here but I didn't even take part in your childish argument. If anything it was a contest about who could be more anal about some mundane formalities. All I've done is read it, dislike it and tell you what I think about people acting that way. You spouting insults is prove of your pathetic way of arguing about N-O-T-H-I-N-G. You may now proceed to cry yourself to sleep.

>That's what the char. function achieves.

The important thing there is that you write the intervals. You can write the anti-derivative in whatever way you'd like, but you can't say just integral f = F. You have to say where.
Also, 'where' should be an interval.

>>2479960
he was talking about the +C

You could just fucking say + a + b |x|/x, which would be accurate, goddamn.

You: would you like to try question 1 again?
Stranger: suree
You: if you dropped a pen on the moon what would happen?
Stranger: it would float due to the fact that there is no gravity on the monn
Stranger: *moon
You: i see
You: how old are you?

Hey I wasn't so bad at physics!

You: if you dropped a pen on the moon what would happen?
Stranger: it'd probably just drop
Stranger: into moon dust
You: oh ok lol
Stranger: fuck, moon dust on my pen.
Stranger: it will probably effect its ability to write then

erm... ok?

Bitch you best be trollin'

Technically this can be correct. In some asshat textbooks, just "log" is the natural log and you need to specify normal logarithms as log10.

Stranger: hi
You: Hello there
Stranger: 18m
Stranger: and u
You: You're 18 meters tall? Amazing! I'm only 1,88 meters tall...
You: I envy you
You: Though, to be honest, it must be hard to find fitting clothes.
Stranger: nice joke
You: Oh wait
Stranger: i mean 18 male
You: You said 18m + u, but never specified that u>0. Hence, it could be that u=-16 and you'd end up being 2 meters tall (which is still quite a lot).
You: You're 18 people at the same time?
You: That's even crazier!

Stranger: hi
Stranger: asl?
You: Hi
Stranger: how r u?
You: I have a question
You: I'm ok
Stranger: ask
You: Ok
You: Since there is no gravy on the moon, why are there shadows?
You: My theory is that God made the shadows on the moon defy the laws of physics
You: to show the humans an example of his powers
Stranger: there is no relation between gravity and shadow
You: Yes there is.
You: I've studied biology for 5 years
You: I think I know a few things, mmk?
Stranger: it is the projection of the object because of the light
You: And light is caused by gravy.
Stranger: no
You: I bet you were a slow child in school, weren't you? :(
Stranger: no
You: Get picked on a lot?

You: Okay

it got p gay after that so i just cut it off

You: describe what the graph of 1/X looks like
Stranger: that is a hyperbola

I don't even

You: Hello
You: What does the graph of 1/x look like?

You: Integrate 1/x then.
Stranger: I have no interest in your request.
You: What is the first law of thermodynamics?
Stranger: I have no interest in your question.
You: lol u so dum.
Stranger: Dream on.
Stranger: You still there?
Stranger: Your claim is unfounded and underpinned by mendacity, fantasy, negation and fallacy.
You: I'll keep rapidly moving my eyes, if you see what I mean.
Stranger: The nescience is on your side of the wire.
You: My claim?
You: which claim?
You: Fantasy?
You: I have talked about maths and science
Stranger: The on implicit in "u so dum".

You: If I were on the moon and dropped a hammer and a feather which one would hit the surface first?
Stranger: neither due to lack of gravity, but my second guess would be a hammer
You: wow really?
You: Why wouldn't the moon have gravity?
Stranger: oh, i guess so but not as much as earth
You: So
You: they would both hit the surface at the same time
Stranger: um no, i still think a feather would take more time because it is really light and even on earth where there is a higher gravitational pull it takes longer for a feather to hit the ground then an object that weighs several pounds
You: Do you know why that is?
Stranger: fuck eh, lets go to the moon and test this shit out...
You: We have.
You: it has been tested
Stranger: haha so am i wrong?
You: Oh so very wrong.
Stranger: damn
You: The feather falls slower on Earth due to the air resistance
Stranger: yes thats what i was saying
You: Not because it is really light
You: Without the presence of an atmosphere, all objects regardless of weight would fall at the same rate
Stranger: hmm well maybe lighter objects have more air resistance ?
Stranger: and the moon has no atmosphere so therefore the hammer and feather would fall at the same rate
Stranger: interesting

>You: What does the graph of 1/x look like?
>You: Hurry up, nigger.
>Stranger: Its a parabola with a vertical asymptote of x=0
>You: oh...

simple enough.

unknown constant C can be expressed as InA
so Inx + C can also = InAx

please stop responding to this thread its soooooo boring

You know whats really sad, I tried this with 4 coworkers of mine on a slow day.

All of them failed 3 of them basically said the same as the guy in the omegle and one failed so spectacularly that I thought I should share it for lols.

didnt ask quite the same question but close enough, if anything my question was more simple "If you drop a pen on the moon, what happens to it?"
his answer
>well it would float away because the moon has no gravity.
>Ask him why the astronauts didnt float away then
and I quote
>"Well weren't they tethered down?"
He wasnt joking either.

MFW

>>2484076
fuuu I fucked up the wording, I meant to say, 3 of them failed, AND one failed spectacularly.

>>2483682
Log has base 10, Ln stands for the natural log and has base e, and btw logx is not equal to lnx.

Stranger: hey
You: Oi.
Stranger: m/f?
You: Nope.
Stranger: pardon?
You: I guess feet.
Stranger: and 'm' being?
You: Meters.
You: Duh.
Stranger: lol
Stranger: male or female?
You: So it's about 3
You: 3.28
Stranger: what is?
You: actually. That's more than I said, but I should've been able to get that. Why do you ask?
You: Feet in a meter.
You: About 3.28 feet in a meter.

>>2485520
but he really asked how many meters in a foot, didn't he? Shit.

I have no fucking idea how to integrate 1/x myself

what was that again?

>>2485536
Hooray, let's open up a shitty can of worms!

People said the most general form of it is ln |x| + C1 + |x|/x C2, but those people are dumb, because why does it fucking matter when you're integrating over the positive parts? We don't care about definition at all values because we only care about one segment at a time. Either you're working with ln x + C1, or you're working with ln -x + C2. That's probably why it doesn't matter one way or another.

>mfw this thread is still alive

just let it die already

>>2485551
I have no fucking idea what you're talking about.

Didn't deal with maths since highschool and even there I was horribad.

It's not like you'd ever need it. Unless you want to order |x| + C1 + |x|/x C2 breads at the bakery.

>>2485573
or want to build a building, or want to compute the entropy of a particular code that follows a well-known distribution, or any goddamn thing more complicated than the box-lifting and grunting you're content to call a job.

What does "integrate" means?

My english teacher never told me about this one.

>>2485781
That should've been in your history class. It means to tell the governor of Alabama where he can stick it.

second person I asked, pretty impressed they could differentiate it - despite them not answering the question

You: Integrate 1/x
Stranger: hi
Stranger: 1/x^2
Stranger: asl
You: a good try
Stranger: its with minus
You: that's the derivative
Stranger: name plz
Stranger: okk
Stranger: wanna chat or nt

Why is it ln|x| + c and not lnx + c?
If I were to take it between say -2 and -1, wouldn't it be -lnx?
The area there is clearly negative, but if you are using ln|x| then it gives it as ln2, rather than -ln2 which it should be.

In fact it seems to me you would have to define a new integral for the negatives, as -lnx.

Why is it ln|x| + c and not lnx + c?
I understand that ln of a negative is not defined, is that the only reason?

>>2485876
Also shouldn't you have to add some sort of extra bit to accomodate for it being undefined for x = 0.
Like
integral of 1/x dx = ln|x| + c for all x =\= 0.

>>2485838
link?

>>2485876
Yeah. The integral of the negative part is ln (-x) so it combines to be ln |x|

>>2485888
That's implied. 1/x is not defined at x = 0, and neither is ln |x|.

DOUCHE MODE: in the function z=xy^2 is z an increasing function of y?

>>2485995
Never.

asked several people what continent Africa is located on.
Nobody could answer
