    I never said this. What are you talking about?

    The gradient of any line is mx + c = y, that's grade school math. That's all you used to work it out and you're claiming you used calculus.

    Alas, the answer for the coveted star was:

    Multiply the equation with d/dt: (d/dt) * t*sqrt(26) = dt * sqrt(26) / dt.

    dts cancel out, therefore the derivative is sqrt(26).

    Still a very unnecessary (and simple) application of calculus, but at least it would've shown that's whatcha did.

      I never used the slope equation. I took a derivative d/dt. I clearly indicated the step where I did that. At this point, I can only conclude that you're keeping this going out of some weird desire to get one over on me, so I'm gonna disengage.
