Laplace transform has always been applied to partial fraction question and its table can be used to solve equations using any of the formulae that applies to the problem, describe inverse Laplace transform?
- A.
If a function f(s) has inverse Laplace transform f(t)
- B.
Then, f(t) is uniquely determined
- C.
Considering functions that differs on a point set having Lebesgue measure zero as the same
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
The given answer "All of the above" is correct because all three statements are true. If a function f(s) has an inverse Laplace transform f(t), then f(t) is uniquely determined, meaning there is only one possible inverse Laplace transform for a given function. Additionally, when considering functions that differ on a point set having Lebesgue measure zero, they are considered the same. This means that even if two functions have different values at a single point, they are still considered equal in the context of the inverse Laplace transform.Rate this question:

In mathematics, there are rational numbers, irrational numbers, and rational functions, when is a function said to be a rational function?
- A.
Any function that can be defined by a rational fraction
- B.
An algebraic function
- C.
When both numerator and denominator are polynomials
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
A rational function is defined as a function that can be expressed as a quotient of two polynomials, where both the numerator and denominator are polynomials. Therefore, any function that can be defined by a rational fraction, as well as any algebraic function, can be considered a rational function. Hence, the correct answer is "All of the above".Rate this question:

Solving partial fraction always involves substitution down the line in the process of integration and differentiation, what is integration by substitution?
- A.
U-substitution for finding integrals
- B.
Use integration
- C.
Antiderivative
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. U-substitution for finding integralsExplanation
Integration by substitution, also known as u-substitution, is a technique used to simplify integrals by making a substitution of variables. It involves substituting a new variable, usually denoted as u, in order to transform the integral into a simpler form that can be easily evaluated. This method is particularly useful when dealing with integrals that involve composition of functions or when the integrand is a product of functions. By substituting variables, the integral can be rewritten in terms of the new variable, making it easier to calculate the antiderivative and find the solution. Therefore, the correct answer is "U-substitution for finding integrals".Rate this question:

In the process of solving partial fraction, the need to decompose equation by parts arises for easy problem solving, what is integration by parts?
- A.
Used when two functions multiplied together
- B.
Antiderivative
- C.
U-substitution
- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
A. Used when two functions multiplied togetherExplanation
Integration by parts is a method used when two functions are multiplied together. It allows us to find the antiderivative of the product of two functions by breaking it down into simpler components. This technique is often used to solve integrals that involve products of functions, and it involves choosing one function to differentiate and another function to integrate. By applying the integration by parts formula, we can simplify the integral and solve it more easily.Rate this question:

The most basic form of substitution when an integral contains some function and derivative, that is, for an integral of the form, what substitution is this?
- A.
U-substitution
- B.
V-substitution
- C.
Substitution by parts
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
A. U-substitutionExplanation
U-substitution is the most basic form of substitution when an integral contains some function and its derivative. In U-substitution, a new variable "u" is introduced, which is equal to the function inside the integral. This allows us to simplify the integral by replacing the function and its derivative with the new variable. U-substitution is a commonly used technique in calculus to evaluate integrals and solve problems involving functions and their derivatives.Rate this question:

Several rules apply when solving a partial fraction and this can only be used when the equation can be taken apart using a certain mathematical rule, what is chain rule?
- A.
To get derivative of a function
- B.
For differentiating compositions of functions
- C.
Denotation of h(x)
- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
B. For differentiating compositions of functionsExplanation
The chain rule is a rule in calculus that allows us to find the derivative of a composition of functions. It states that if we have a function that is composed of two or more functions, then the derivative of the composition is equal to the derivative of the outer function multiplied by the derivative of the inner function. This rule is used when we need to find the derivative of a function that is made up of nested functions, such as f(g(x)). Therefore, the correct answer is "For differentiating compositions of functions."Rate this question:

How do you in integrate LN X? if: In(x) dx. set u = In(x), dv=dx, then we find. du = (1/x)dx, v=x.
- A.
Substitute In(x) dx=u dv.
- B.

- D.
All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
The given answer "All of the above" is correct because it includes all the steps mentioned in the explanation. The integration by parts method is used, where u is set as In(x) and dv is set as dx. The values of du and v are found accordingly. Then, the formula for integration by parts, uv - ∫v du, is applied by substituting the values of u, v, and du. Therefore, all the mentioned steps are required to integrate LN X.Rate this question:
