you just can't never be 2careful online cuz ppl would do anything

since youa re a mathgeek maybe you can help on my calculus homework
i cant' figure it out so i'm on here reading posts

what is the best way to under stand the limit function

 

theives don't like delay. they want to get out within 5 minutes.

there is this thing that I heard about....

 

Yeah I wanted know how that systems works. Cause I had a 00 Honda SI Turbo and that was stolen with an alarm that I thought was pretty damn good. I had a Clifford Solaris with the blackjax feature and they still got my car and stripped the ever living hell out of it. But does the early detection lojack have an audiable alarm to it? Oh yeah and how much does it cost with install?

 

The dealership where I got my Evo, Arapahoe Mitsu in Denver, said they had 2 brand new Evos stolen off the lot one night. They have aftermarket alarms in all their Evos which was nice because I didn't have to get it installed somewhere else. I've also got lojack just in case. I guess they have a problem with people stealing the manual out of the Evos too.

 

I don't know exactly what you mean by "a limit function". Since you are presumably at the beginning of the spring semester, I assume that you are studying the definition of limits and the various computational techniques used to evaluate them. I'd be happy to help you with this. Calculus is my specialty, having taught it for 10 years. However, I'm fairly limited by the text capabilities of this chat forum. You can e-mail me with specific questions and I can respond that way, if you like.

well its mth 173 i'm not sure how its listed at schools where you at

section 2.1 is limits and derivatives

whre you find the tangent line, but for some reason it also talkea bout the secant line wher ei'm getting confused

 

hey mathgeek; i live in fresno... i have an alarm on my evo because here you have to worry more about vandalism and some punk trying to take your wing off or smash and grab as opposed to actual car theft... i got a clifford rsx3.5 w/ backup battery and other goodies... stay away from turbo timers and remote start and you'll be good to go. I wouldn't feel safe parking my car at riverpark in fresno w/out a pager alarm as i've known too many people who've had cars stolen, vandalized, or towed from that place.

 

he's probably taking about the definition of a derivative where you try to take a limit as h->0 [ f(x+h) - f(x) ] / h . Best way to think about that is you know the derivative is basically a slope of the tangent line and you start off with some large h and find the slope of that with respect to the function @ a point and as h goes to 0, you have a true tangent line and arriving @ your slope function. Mathgeek I use to drive by coalinga all the time going back to school @ Cal, must kinda suck to teach there....cuz of the cows... =P

 

can we close this topic, please. the thought of a stolen evo scares me. it also brings a sharp pain to my nutz.

 

Why is that??? Cause we will cut the nutz off anyone caught stealing an evo?

 

Yeah, Coalinga has more cows than people. Incidentally, the above explanation is very good. I hope it helps the individual who is having difficulty.

 

That's surprising. I've always been under the impression that Riverpark was one of the nicer areas of Fresno. I live in the Tower District of Fresno and since I've owned my Eclipse (18 mos.) I've had it keyed and had the rear passenger window smashed in an attempted burglary. Seems like there are some people that just won't let anyone own anything nice. I've never understood the mentality of "keying" a car. Is the intended statement, "I want this, but I can't afford it, so #$&! you"?

 

Yes to your question. The deal is, you need to know more about the system than someone would take the time to do for a joyride. A pro can steal anything, if they want it bad enough. Anything you can do to slow them down is a plus, they don't want to do time, ever.

I had a vehicle you couldn't even tow away- a '93 Landcruiser with 315/60/16 mud tires weighing 7480 lbs- too heavy to lift, all wheel drive, could be parked anywhere without fear of being stolen- because no one wanted it

/endofftopic

Professional thieves can always steal your car if given enough time. I think the immobilizer would help slow them down, but the Evo stands out enough I'd be worried about the nonprofessional joyriders. I'd suggest a really loud alarm when you park it anywhere other than home.

 

One other point ...
A lot of a$$holes will beat the **** out of your car if they can't steal it.
