RE: Oddity Using Root Finder with Integrator (long)
Wolframalpha confirms the emulator's result:
(integrate (x^3*(1-x)^5) dx from x=0 to y)*beta(4,6)-0.25=0 y = -1.62561, and it's the only root. UPDATE: and that shows the error you (and I) made... If I change it to *divide* by beta(4,6): (integrate (x^3*(1-x)^5) dx from x=0 to y)/beta(4,6)-0.25=0 There are three roots, y = -0.17836 y = 0.290986 y = 1.3936 41CV†,42S,48GX,49G,DM42,DM41X,17BII,15CE,DM15L,12C,16CE |
