How do I find critical numbers of a function or graph, such as the function, f(x)=abs(x^3-2x^2+1) ???????? Please help me

Hi, how do I plot something of the form x+y+z=3 for a range of x,y,and z? I thought this should be a simple 3d plot, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Thanks ahead of time.

I am creating help pages for a package, and want an example worksheet to open as a worksheet rather than a help page. For example, clicking the "Package Overview help page template" hyperlink on the "Templates" help page brings up a worksheet rather than a help page. The mouseover of the hyperlink implies it was saved as a help page (presumably in a help database) rather than as a worksheet. I see the active=true option under INTERFACE_HELP, but am not sure how I convert my worksheet to this form - surely I would lose the formatting styles. An option under "save to database" seems logical, or an active=true option for makehelp, but these do not seem to exist.

How can I add blank spaces after each comma in the following so that the output will be easier to read? print(X_bar[1] = Mean_SampleMeans1, S[1]^2 = Var_SampleMeans1, S[1] = SD_SampleMeans1); X_bar[1] = 5.993500000, S[1]^2 = 5.102310060, S[1] = 2.258829356 I am using Maple 10 worksheet mode (Mac). Maple ignores any additional spaces after commas in the input. Thanks for your help. Thomas

Nowadays i am trying to program a kind of computer algorithm to generate a random mathematical formula, and I'm having an argument with another mapleTA programer, the question is this one: What is more efficient, have a question for all the types of formulas with random variables or have only one question with a code like: $a = range(-5,5); $ea= range(1,5); $eb= range(1,5); $ec= range(1,5); $eq1 = switch(rint(7),maple('$a*x^$ea*y^$eb*z^$ec'),maple('$a*x^$ea*y^$eb'),maple('$a*x^$ea*z^$ec'),maple('$a*y^$eb*z^$ec'),maple('$a*x^$ea'),maple('$a*y^$eb'),maple('$a*z^$ec'));

I'm trying to insert a random polynom in a mathml question, let me explain: code: $a = range(-5,5) $b = range(-5,5) $c = range(-5,5) $eq = maple('MathML:-ExportPresentation(($a)*x+($b)*y+($c)*z = 0)) question:

Hello, is there a way to give new properties to built-in operators, such as `+` or `*`? For example, I have my own type MYTYPE and procedure for adding MyAdd(a::MYTYPE, b::MYTYPE). Now, I would like to use: a + b instead of MyAdd(a,b). Is it possible? Thank you. Karel

I seem to be having some trouble with scalar multiplication. Perhaps you all can help out. Here is what I have; with(LinearAlgebra): A:= matrix(3,3,[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]); ScalarMultiply(A,3); I was hoping that would work, but after the ScalarMultiply command I get "Error, (in LinearAlgebra:-ScalarMultiply) expects its 1st argument, MV, to be of type {Matrix,Vector}, but received A" Any ideas where I am going wrong? Thanks in advance.

Probably me doing something wrong but just wanted to know.... I wanted to assign a value to a variable... delta x but I wanted to use the greek delta with the x. (e.g. Δx) Maple doen't like it, and flags the error. Error, first argument to _Inert_ASSIGN must be assignable I know it is only cosmetic but I just wanted know if its possible. Thanks, dgiznya

How do I find the numeric value of these equation.I want actual value of all symbols( alpha,beta and gamma) 1) b_2 = -3.464909430*RootOf(-gamma^2+alpha*beta+(-gamma^2-4*alpha*beta)*_Z+(gamma^2+4*alpha*beta)*_Z^2, label = _L1)+1.732454715 2) b_1 = RootOf(-gamma^2+alpha*beta+(-gamma^2-4*alpha*beta)*_Z+(gamma^2+4*alpha*beta)*_Z^2, label = _L1)/alpha 3) Z = -.5772156649*alpha/(2.*RootOf(-gamma^2+alpha*beta+(-gamma^2-4*alpha*beta)*_Z+(gamma^2+4*alpha*beta)*_Z^2, label = _L1)-1.)

Please help me find the numeric values of a_1,a_2,b_1 and b_2, base on the below equation. solve({a_1^2*alpha+a_2^2*beta=a_1,2*a_1*a_2*alpha+a_2^2*gamma=a_2,a_1*b_1*alpha+a_2*b_2*beta=b_1,a_1*b_2*alpha+a_2*b_1*alpha+a_2*b_2*gamma=b_2,b_1^2*alpha+b_2^2*beta=a_1+b_1,2*b_1*b_2*alpha+b_2^2*gamma=a_2+b_2,a_1*b_2<>b_1*a_2},[a_1,a_2,b_1,b_2]);

I'm new to Maple and just starting a ODE class. I attempted to do a Directional Field plot using DEplot. The plot displayed only Q3 and no mater what I tried would not plot the other quadrants. My inputs: with(DEtools): desgn := diff(y(x),x)=-x/y DEplot(desgn,y(x),x=-10…10,y=-10…10); Seems simple enough is there something I’m missing? I tried to change the range by the right click over the plot; did nothing. Sorry if this is overly simple but, I’m still learning… Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

I am teaching a course on wavelets. I have two items that are giving me trouble with using Maple 10. 1. I read a JPEG image into my worksheet, and then I want to multiply it by a filter matrix. I get an error because the filter is a Matrix and the image is an Array. How do I fix this problem? 2. Once I have changed the image, I want to see the result. The only way I have found to do it is to save the resulting array to the hard drive, and then use the Insert tab, and choose image. There has to be a way to do this without having to store the Array. How? Bo Green

I had trouble with Maple in my calculus II class when working an improper integral. See the uploaded worksheet at Download 513_Maple_Trouble.mw
