Lol I’m still here, but right now being a prof is a tough job. Working me hard. I have a couple projects going on in the shop (like trying to build a shop. Mainly though I’ve been teaching oh and raising 3 future inmates. Lol. How are all y’all doing?

Hey, Johan, yep I’m a math prof in Louisiana. I teach junior/senior engineers mostly. This covid has forced me to migrate everything online. There’s a reason why we teach differential equations, calc 2, and calc 3 face to face lol. It’s because things like this don’t go over well on FaceTime lol. I hope all is well!

That made my head hurt. I haven't touched calculus since college.

I think I know your issue here and why it's so difficult to solve. The majority of the characters in your math problem are not numbers.

Yes, but... if I put numbers in, then I can’t solve it bec I suck at math. It’s a catch 23 lol.

Kevin, you forgot to carry the 1. Don’t take it too hard. Happens to all of us.

I see that math mess as a cry for help. Intervention time. Everyone say it with me...

I don’t buy Kevin’s absence story. Something doesn’t add up.

I think that math problem is a function of Kevin’s range of possibilities. His range could be rather small, or infinite. There are many variables at play, which could lead to two sets of problems for Kevin. Kevin, we’re here for you, buddy, no matter where you fall on the graph.

Professor Zito, sir! I had to ask my wife what this was, as well as my son who finished his degree in Chemical Engineering. My wife started explaining me about integration which immediately went WAY over my head! (She's a math teacher.) After the worst of the brain cramp subsided, I have to concur with the Boss, those kinda stuff should never be posted on this site again. It is potentially dangerous!
All kidding aside, I work for a tertiary institution myself (support services), and our students are in all likelihood not coming back to campus anytime soon. Lectures are all done online as we speak.
You keep up the good work.

I wouldn’t even be able to figure that out on a calculator! This is why you go to school kids! That way you don’t have to become a stupid knife maker!

After some deep thought and carefully perusing old Sumeric and Aramaic texts for a rutabaga tea infusion, I have the correct solution.

2 or more years would be calculi.
