    horizontal asymptotes: what happens if the highest degree terms are not the same on the numerator and denominator?

    • @juniorbini8930
      @juniorbini8930 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The upper degree will either be greater or less than the lower degree and in that case if its greater there is no Horizontal asymptote if its less the HA will be zero.

  • @unknown-re9vv
    @unknown-re9vv 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Actually your explanation is complex a bit but it shows all the steps and why this and that become the answer, I suggest you making a video of a lesson with different explanations for different skill learning level and i think this will be very helpful. Thanks a lot for your efforts 👍👏👏👏

  • @halisselamozmen5658
    @halisselamozmen5658 หลายเดือนก่อน

    This is very interesting, other videos show these with examples simple enough to just set the denominator/s to zero. You mentioned it clearly that not every value for a variable, for which the expression goes undefined, is also an asymptote itself. And also quickly explaining relevant but maybe overseeable topics like qualifiers helps alot. This is the depth I'd rather like to understand in than the depth of maths being taught in school.
    Thank you very much.

    The easiest way to figure out the shape of the function is to look at the factoring used for the vertical asymptote. This shows in the numerator that the function equals 0 only at 9, since 9 is greater than 3, and 0 is less than a 1/2. We know that it approaches 1/2 from below on the right of the asymptote and from above on the left

    Hey Khan, can you finish/add to your differential equations playlist?
    You don't have anything on Power Series, Ordinary, Singular and Regular Singular Points or Fourier Series. It'd be great if you could do a bunch on this. Deciphering DiPrima and Boyce's book is a real pain.

    for the vertical asymptote, why not just make the denominator's equation equal to zero like: 6x^2-54=0 then do math. it's much more easier.

    • @Gavolak

      Samiha Sajida I think what he's saying is that you can make that equation, and then what you solve for is going to be your asymptote.

    • @chrisvo203
      @chrisvo203 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      and hes saying that x = -3 is wrong when you solve that equation. lmao. he even explains it after he factors out the equations. he says that x = -3 is where the function is undefined. that x = -3 is called a hole. thats why he says the the setting the denominator's equation to 0 and solving for x will not be the correct answer.

  • @greywolf4246

    C'mon, Khan you know that we're all expecting you to make more Bitcoin videos of the other level. How about making some explanatory video in a kids style like (by showing visually limited amount of the Bitcoin money) "Here's the digital blocks that we need to protect with the keys, imagine that this geometrical room is all of the world Bitcoins - now look - if somebody claims to have 1 million of BTC, that takes too much space" - or you can use examples as an earth, to explain that purchasing 100 BTC is like purchasing New York city for cheap 300 years ago.
    You know, something like that. We're like a kids - we don't need complicated stuff. At least sometimes make something simple.
