Hello and good rest of the evening.

I'm having a trouble with plotting a function (pressure distribution in a hydrodynamic film bearing).
I know how it should approximatly 'look' but am not getting the correct shape.

I've of course used the help etc. but can't seem to find out what the problem is. I've attached my mcdx file.

This is what I get:

and this is what I should be getting, approx.

1) You have a minus sign in front of the 6 which should not be there

2) You are viewing the wrong area. The Mathcad picture you provided just shows the range between the two zero crossings which happen to be at 40um and 95 um.

3) The abscissa in the picture is reversed so that 95 um is to the left and 40 um is to the right. This was possible to do with Mathcad but is something which can't be achieved with Prime.
