Simplifying the equations

O+N=10y  ( y=1 or 2)
y+W+2E=10x+V (x=0,1,2)
x+1+R+V=10z+L (z=0,1 or 2)
z+H=10a (a=1 or 2)
a+S=9+W

O+N=10y (y=1 or 2)
since they both smaller than 10 , y could only be 1

O+N=10
y+W+2E=10x+V (x=0,1,2) = 1+W+2E=10x+V (x=0,1,2)

z+H=10a (a=1 or 2)
and z could only be (0,1 or 2)
H< 10, z can't be zero  , so z could only be (1, or 2)
a could only be 1


a+S=9+W
1+S=9+W
S-W=8
W might be 0 or 1, S might be 8 or 9

According to Mathsyperson, W could only be 0
then S could only be 8


Simplify the equations again

O+N=10
1+2E=10x+V (x=0,1,2)
x+1+R+V=10z+L (z=1 or 2)
z+H=10
W=0
S=8
T=1

H is different from S , then z=1 , H = 9

x+1+R+V=10z+L

we know that W=0 T=1, S=8, H=9
This is the only equations left:
O+N=10
x+R+V=9+L (x=0,1,2)
1+2E=10x+V

Eliminate the x
2E+10R+9V=89+10L
V must be odd , options are 3,5,7
the only even numbers left : 2,4,6

O+N=10, so O,N could either take (3,7)(7,3) or (6,4) (4,6)
Since O and N only appear once, so order doesnt not matter

Consider O , N take (7,3)
V has to be 5
2E+10R=44+10L
E+5R=22+5L
E+5(R-L)=22
E,R,L have to be any arrangement of (2,4,6)
No solution

Thus, O,N have to take (6,4)
2E+10R+9V=89+10L
E+5(R-L)= (89-9V)/2
V = 3, 5, 7
E+5(R-L)=31   (2,5,7)
E+5(R-L)=22   (2,3,7)
E+5(R-L)=13     (2,3,5)

When V=5 E=2, R=7, L=3 , equation two has solution , 2+5x4=22

So
TWO = 107  THREE= 19722 SEVEN=82523   
Or
TWO=103 THREE=19722 SEVEN=82527


Fixed!!!

I made these equations according to table

O+E+N=10y +E  ( y=1 or 2)
y+W+2E=10x+V (x=0,1,2)
x+T+R+V=10z+L (z=0,1 or 2)
z+H+E=10a+E (a=1 or 2)
a+T+S=10T+W

E 6 times
T 3 times
V 2 times
W 2 times
R 1 time
H 1 time
N 1 time
O 1 time

These letter represent 8 diff number out of 10


lets take all number to the max 999+99999+99999= 200997
T could only be 1 or 2 ,   
If we assume T = 2
a+T+S=10T+W
T+S <=18
a must be 2 , then 2+T+S <20, which contradicts
so T must be 1

#80 Re: Help Me ! » Need help with physics waves » 2008-05-16 05:21:24

yea, that puzzles me as well,  I look at different sources, they didnt explain it.  they just simply stated that when a wave enter a new medium frequency remain unchanged.  But since frequency means a number of cycles per unit time  of a particle of medium . I think it could be proven , can anyone help?

to my knowledge, in light wave or magnetic wave's case, the frequency remain unchanged is that  frequency is related to the energy of the light wave, engergy could not be created or destroyed so it remained unchanged.

dont know if its the same in mechanical wave's case

#81 Re: Help Me ! » diffrentiation » 2008-05-16 05:10:41

4x³ + 18x² + 26x + 12   there's a trick
4        8
         10        20
                     6      12

first write 4 and 12 at top left, and bottom right, then make every pair has the same ratio
(4x³+8x²) +.....

#82 Re: Help Me ! » double integrals » 2008-05-15 16:36:46

Wow, looks like you cant even reverse the dy and dx, cuz lnx = ln0 is not define...kinda hard

#83 Re: Help Me ! » double integrals » 2008-05-15 14:04:32

first draw the graph of the restrain region

#84 Re: Help Me ! » polar coordinates » 2008-05-15 13:40:15

the first question
you should lower the surface by subtracting 16
thus it becomes the volume between

I just leave the calculation, XD

p.s you can dissect the solid in question 2 into 2 parts, ...its hard to describe without graph...

#85 Re: Help Me ! » Need help with physics waves » 2008-05-15 06:48:32

In my opinion,

I guess the linear mass density of steel is greater than of aluminium, therefore v decrease,  and frequency remain unchanged, then wavelength must decrease as well

#86 Re: Help Me ! » PSF Method Factorisation » 2008-05-13 03:53:46

Is this what you are looking for?

For you question 2, I have another method

2a² + 11a + 5

2a           1

a             5

1xa +2ax5= 11a
1x5=5

2a² + 11a + 5= (2a+1)(a+5)

Anyway, you have to find Aa² + Ba + C

E        G

F         H
Such that GF+EH=B,  GH=C , EF=A

#87 Re: Help Me ! » Green's theorem » 2008-05-13 03:35:42

dont know how to show double integral, what's the sign? XD

#88 Re: This is Cool » Yay for a wacky proof! » 2008-05-12 03:09:09

I guess its more like

The trick of this is that, he changed the domain and range

#89 Re: Help Me ! » Intermediate forms » 2008-05-09 03:31:12

The first one, I dont know if I am allowed to use L'hospital's rule twice, if so, after taking derivative twice it became like this

#90 Re: Help Me ! » polar coordinates and centre of mass » 2008-05-08 18:14:21


And we could do a triple integration to find the center of mass, but I am not really good at the calculation lol

#91 Re: Help Me ! » my proof valid?? » 2008-05-08 13:20:26

Oh yea, 5 and 2 are prime , so 5^n and 2^m would be relatively prime , Thx, Ricky and Jane

#94 Re: Help Me ! » Intermediate forms » 2008-05-08 03:17:35

hint : apply L' Hospital rule

Hmm, I have yet to learn that. but soon.

If I were to really do it , I would:

Wow, I didnt know its transcendental. Thx for the info Daniel. XD.  I tried all night ..and in vain T.T
