Four Ways of Using MathCheck
- Problem web pages prepared by the teacher
- Web course
- Problems given by the teacher on paper
MathCheck home
- “Compute `frac(del)(del x) sin^2 x^2`.”
- student solution
DD x sin^2 x^2
= 2 sin x^2 * DD x sin x^2
= 2 sin x^2 * cos x^2 * DD x x^2
= 2 sin x^2 cos x^2 * 2x
= 4x sin x^2 cos x^2
= 2x sin 2x^2
- Students work entirely on their own
- “What is wrong with my calculation?”
assume n >= 0 enda
(x+1)^(n+1) = (x+1) (x+1)^n >= (1+x) (1 + n x)
= 1 + n x + x + n x^2 >= 1 + (n+1)x
