There are three constants in life: death, taxes, and how much grading quizzes sucks. The Kubler-Ross model has never been so close to accurate to something completely random; I feel like a disappointed mother grading these things.

Anyways here is the first quiz I ever wrote. How many of YOU would get 100%? (and shame on you engineers who look it up, be a (wo)man and derive it!)

    I can't believe anyone lets you hand write things that other people have to learn from. Love you gurrl.

    x^2+y^2+z^2=r^2 sounds simple enough for a sphere. No constants, so centered on origin (0,0,0). Radius is 12. x,y,z are scaled 4,3,1 so it's an ellipsoid on the origin. Mathematicians probably have a name for it, but engineers wouldn't bother, so I'm gonna have to go with
    "scalene ellipsoid centered on origin". Right? Not sure if it looks more like a football or a frisbee, but both can be thrown and caught.

    Ellipsoid is the mathematician name for it haha. I would say it's more like a Rugby ball.
