Hey guys, I need some calculus help here.

What is the derivative of chair?

>> No.2623365

stool

>> No.2623368

Chairs are constant, so zero.

>> No.2623371

Use the chain rule.

You start, like with any word problem, by turning the words into meaningful mathematical elements. Looking at your chair we can derive that it is equal to x^4 (due to the four legs) so we simply do the derivative of that and get 4*x^3.

So the derivative of a chair is a 3 legged seating device that is 4 times as wide.

I do believe we're off on a tangent.

Wood.

Now wait, what is the integral of the chair?

>> No.2623450

>>2623446

I believe it's the area under the chair.

>> No.2623459

Wider ass.

>> No.2623486

That chair's derivative would resemble a step function.

>> No.2623719

>>2623364
Can't derivative things that aren't differentiable functions.
Take the Fourier transform of the chair first.

>> No.2623741

>>2623364
with respect to what are you taking the derivative?

>> No.2623755

Chair is the area under your ass, which means the derivative of chair is ass.
