1. no. Unless f(u)
Edited on Wed Mar-22-06 03:50 AM by Random_Australian
is the nth root of e to the x.
ie. It equals e^x when raised to the n.
------------------------- (in words)
You are free to choose a f(u), so you could make it something that equals e to the x when raised to the power of n if you wish, but unless it specifies a particular function of u, then it is false by generalisation.

By the way, integral e to the x = e to the x
That's the point of e

2. ...
If this is from a reliable source, it's probably a specified function of e and x that is related in such a way that it is true. What is the context of the question? Do x and u represent anything other than unspecified scalar variables?

4. Somehow I miss not knowing anymore how to do it
I loved math in school and I think it is sad that I forgot the higher math since I don't need it anymore. But it was fun nevertheless.

16. I used the law of mutual annihilation.
I multiplied both sides by zero and it gave me zero to the zero which is one according to knuckleheads who teach math, so if you have nothing and do nothing with it, you get something!!! Sounds like spontaneous generation!
