Geocache Description:

The cache is NOT at the posted coordinates. Simply perform a math operation on the below equations to find the real location!


It's time to brush up on those math skills! Math was my favorite subject in school and I majored in it in college, so I had to create a cache involving it! Perform some sort of operation on the two equations below, and once you do, you'll have the coordinates to the actual location of the cache. BYOP. Good luck!


f(x)=(1/3)x9+x7+(5/6)x6+2x4+(7/3)x3+(5/2)x2+7x


f(y)=120y14+77y10+27y8+24y5+45y4+9y2+6y
