I know the fact that X has to be equal to zero.  I figured that out
yesterday in my AP Calc class.  As far as the c variables, I took the
derivative to rid myself of those constants.  I'm in AP Calc so I know that
doing things like canceling out the X twice is bad.  I wrote the proof for
the sole reason to be able to confuse lower math students (and believe me
there are plenty!!).  It also is "legal" to most of the people I showed it
to that are very good at Calculus, besides the fact 1=2.  The only really
valid thing that I knew about was the (1/3)x^3 and (2/3)x^3 being equal and
there for working for only at one specific point in 4 dimensional space. :-)
Thank you for pointing out all of the problems!
