  • ahhh the collapsed bridges and crumbled buildings that would follow for eons if patrickjmt hadn't helped first year engineer's. You're not just saving our marks, you're saving mankind!!!

  • @laserguncarrier ha, go forth and build solid structures! : )

  • your lefthandedness infuriates me, but the video helped a ton, haha. thank you.

  • @sam47sam47sam47 sounds like you get mad easily : )

  • Us math majors are in great debt to you.

  • @SzNelly31 very happy if i can help some of them out :  )

  • great video! very helpful and easy to follow, but the real winner is your flawless handwriting.

  • thanks for uploading

  • Wait shouldn't it be (n-1) at the top instead of 1/n when your canceling (n-1)! and n!.

    My teacher told me that (n-1)! = (n-1) x (n)! ; can you clarify, i got kind of confused there.

    I'm talking about 7:43.

  • i love america!

  • If you are evaluating the function in x=2 all the terms of the derivatives contains the term (1/2) to a determined power by the factorial corresponding number, therefore, in the f'''(2) , there is a mistake the third derivative of ln(X) is equal to 2(x^-3)= (2/x^3) then f'''(2)= 2*(1/2)^3. It's a typical mistake in first levels, on the other hand, I appreciate You uploaded this video!

  • hey sir..... thank you sir...

    well, i wanna ask something, is it doesn't matter if i put the power of -1 as (n-1) instead of (n+1)??

  • GOOOD STUFFF

  • @patrickJMT in my case all the software that would follow me for eons if you hadn't help first year computer engineer. You should get a medal.
