well
That was made using this
a = <3,8>
<3,8> = (7/3)<1,3> + (1/3)<2,3>
it + jt = at
it = <1,3>
wait
I made a mistake
and jt = <2,3>
and I could transform the cartesian plane and get another that uses it and jt as those vectors that make up any other vector in that new plane
and k = 7/3
m = 1/3 this is how much I have to squeeze or stretch out it and jt to get a
And this is pretty interesting because I could also write that vector as
a = 3i + 8j
so I have two different solutions for the same vector
by the way, it and jt stand for "i transformed" and j transformed"
I hope what I said made sense 
Everything you’re saying makes sense although I don’t really understand the part about transforming the Cartesian coordinates
I should have said cartesian plane in that part
Hm I’m not sure what the difference is. It’s been a while since I took math though
oh wait I thought you were quoting me
Yeah I just mean the XY plane
linear algebra is so interesting
so I'm gonna take a guess
are you saying that as long as the two vectors aren't coincident, then any point in cartesian space can be made up of a summation of those two vectors, and therefore you could consider that a new coordinate system?
yes
oh cool
it and jt could be considered as a new coordinate system where it and jt can generate any vector in that plane, so basically R^2
sure I don't see why not
I was never good at the semantic sort of stuff though
but I'm sure doing something like that would have some applications
@median trail yes, that's exactly it.
it's easier to visualise it with 2D as you kinda visualised it there
but 3D it's a bit harder to visualise
then for R^n, lol, wtf is that visually. so we rely on algebra for that.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1zgv24QsdzI the first few minutes kinda show the shifting of coordinate systems
Introducing vectors and defining the important terms
in 2D at least.

if it didn't form a triangle, it wouldn't have gone back to the origin. but the axioms state it goes back to the origin.
thus, c vector must be the "head to tail"
thus similarly, the converse (starting with a resultant vector) can be made with the sum of 2 other vectors where those 3 vectors make a triangle.
so starting with a resultant vector c, means that "a" and "b" can be whatever as long as it makes a triangle.
One day I want to develop the necessary skills for proving stuff by induction

Multiplica
| 1 0 | | 0 0 |
| 0 0 | | 0 1 |
date cuenta que es 0, pero ninguna de las 2 matrices es nula
Ohh i forgot this
hahaha my university uses the same platform
^
hmm
a>0 and b>0
Not sure if that's correct, but that's my interpretation of "for two positive values a and b"
@median trail dw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xT8agzwsR7Q this kid explained it
Square root ab equals square root a times square root b.
Sqrt(ab)=Sqrt(a)Sqrt(b)
idk what a 10 year old is doing algebra for but its good that he did lol
this sort of looks like stuff ive learned
No tenés que mostrar que (ab)^c = (a^c)(b^c)?
no
√a ⋅ √b =√a ⋅√b ∀ a>0 and b>0
that's what it says

huh i had written it wrong whoops
se refiere a que si no tienes que demostrar que el exponente es distributivo antes de usarlo
I don't know how to use axioms at this "simple" level
porque por ejemplo, en el caso de las matrices el exponente se distribuye de una manera especial
oh
uh
no tengo idea
no creo que sea necesario
porque ya tenemos la propiedad conmutativa de la multiplicación
y lo que se quiere demostrar no es eso, en este caso
es la propiedad distributiva de la raíz
supongo que se llamará así
bueno no, no es distributiva porque no tiene un +
pero se entiende

alguien está armando un ordenador y necesita un código de windows 10 pro? quiero regalarlo porqué lo compré por error
how come my discord is so compressed
what can I do
can I close the side bars or something?
oh ctrl + u
nice one
4(cosx(1/2) - sen(x)(sqrt(3)/2))
@gusty ermine
cos(x+y) = cosxcosy - senxseny
cos(x-y) = cosxcosy + senxseny*
cos(pi/3) = 1/2
sen(pi/3) = sqrt(3)/2
that's all you need
Sorry I don't think I understand
I get the cos(x+y) and cos(x-y) and what you explained but I don't understand why you got 4(cosx(1/2) - sen(x)(sqrt(3)/2)) as the answer
x = x
y = pi/3
cos(x+y) = cosxcosy + senxseny
cos(x+pi/3) = cosxcos(pi/3) + senxsen(pi/3)
cos(pi/3) = 1/2
sen(pi/3) = sqrt(3)/2
cos(x+pi/3) = cosx(1/2)+ senx(sqrt(3)/2)
so now that we have what cos(x+pi/3) is equal to, let's multiply it by 4
4cos(x+pi/3) = 4(cosx(1/2)+ senx(sqrt(3)/2))
The question looks weird, I am not sure if it is pi or not (??/3 thing)
nevermind
@median trail Thanks a lot! I probably have more questions haha
I'm pretty sure it's pi since that's the only way to get sqrt(3) haha
so, the part that's on the first quadrant is basically the one that's between two roots of your equation
so the vertex? Since it's a parabola?
I think the vertex is one, and the other would be...
y = 3x - x^2
y = x(3-x)
so you have x = 0 and x = 3
Is it possible for me to do dy/dx and find zero?
so I guess you have to do the integral from 0 to 3
and then divide it by 3
well... You can but you are just gonna find one of the roots
since remember that the vertex (I think this is what it is called) of the parabola is always the max or min point depending on if it's upwards or downwards
but okay
mm yes
the integral from 0 to 3 of the function 3x - x^2 is = (3x^2)/2 - (x^3)/3 from x = 0 to x = 3
I got -3
sorry my markers are running our of tint
x2 and x1 are the values used to define our integral
Your handwriting is beautiful
Absolutely love it
Thank you so much. I understand it.
When do I use derivative or not??
you don't need it, remember you use the derivative if you are studying how the graph "changes" over the time
I'm gonna check how to figure that one out after I get done what I'm currently doing
Ah okay. Thank you!
well... so
if you thing about it, let's split the function in half, and we end up with e^x and sin x
e^x is never zero unless you use limits, but we are not gonna do that
but sin x can be equal to zero at x = 0, x=pi and x= 2pi
=wolf cosx+sinx = 0
so I'd say two zeroes
just draw the graph cosx+sinx = 0 or cosx = -sinx or -cosx = sinx and find relative points.
I think three zeroes
Sin(0) = 0
Sin(pi) = 0
Sin(2pi) = 0
ah. wait. i didnt read the question. haha no derivatives here.
yeah hahaha
it's just solving e^x = 0 or sin(x) = 0
which can be done via unit circle
or graphing sine
ye
and show that e^x cannot be zero just by drawing the graph. so the sin(x) = 0 is the only part needed.

Omgggg edsel tascla

Hey math gods
I invoke you
How would you interprete this?
Let p > 0 fixed. Represent in the real line the set A = {p, 2p, -p, 0}.
@real imp can u translate that
wait nvm
wouldn't that be like zigzag
first line with postive slope then negative slope than positive slope
uhhhh
but
no it doesnt ask to graph
it asks to represent it in the real line
@gusty ermine


oh number line
i dont really understand but wouldn't you put a dot on 0, and set p equal to a postive number and stuff
so if p=1, you would put the dot at -1, 0, 1, and 2
ok so this is what i thought
but idk if its correct
because uh
you dont know the value of p
you know that 0 is 0
but you have inf values in p
and you also have -p
p>0
@real imp I think the answer could be R
since for each p you have -p
so...
you can stay as close to zero as you want
yeah
its just the whole line then right?
I guess so

I guess the idea is just to have the distance between points equal, in both the solutions

Yeah i mean idk
This is why I’m gonna hate college math
y
It becomes more about letters and less about numbers
xd
du think the formulas just magically appear?
No
something is the letter
2+x=4.9
the letter literally plays the dot of a blank space
2+__=4.9
but you add a name to that blank space
so if you reference it more than once, you know which one ur talking about
x^2+x+2=y
??
a good example of the name calling is bhaskara's formula
(-b +- sqrt((b) ^ 2 - 4 * a * c))/ 2 * a
Oh that
=tex x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}

¿Alguien sabe que función tienen {} en un ejercicio matemático?
well it depends
you can use curly brackets when studying about laplace transforms, or when defining a set, or when you already have parentheses and brackets then you can use curly brackets
like
{[(2x)+5y]3z+1}5
But I don't think that's common these days
Yeah you don't see brackets too much until advanced calculus/set theory

@real imp did you get the answer to the set thing? the A={a,b}
What does A\ B mean in matrices?
@real imp The reference you gave, that's not a matrix. That's just another set.
\ is a "set minus". excluding the elements in set B from set A
for example. Let A = {1,2,3,4,5,14} and B = {0,14}
Then A \ B = {1,2,3,4,5}
We don't want to include "0" and "14" from set A, if that makes any sense.
A \ B, I want all elements from A, excluding the elements from B.
basically find which elements are the same in both and get rid of it.
{1,2,3,4,5,14} \ {0,14} = {1,2,3,4,5} (since 14 exists in both sets, but we want to exclude both 0 and 14 [no need to exclude 0, since it already doesn't exist in set A].)
@real imp The reference you gave, that's not a matrix. That's just another set.
@abstract scaffold By "In matrices" I mean just the topic

I didn't know about this method for converting from decimal to binary
that applies to positional notation in general
12786 = 1 * 10^4 + 2 * 10^3 + 7 * 10^2 + 8 * 10^1 + 6 * 10^0

@cunning scaffold what kind of computer science are you interested in learning?
LAUREN
I have various resources but it really depends on what you mean with comp-sci
suuuuup duude
oh which one?
umm can you tell me a bit more about that method
i dont really see what is going on tbh
you check if the number is greater than 128, if it is you substract the number from 128
then
ohhh hold on i see now
you take the result and check if it's greater than the lower power of 2
ok mmmm
and then you do the same thing over and over again
let me just refresh my memory real quick and ill get back to you asap
oh right i kinda see why
but idk how to explain this intuitively
can you come to a vc so i can maybe use word words to explain
I'm in class rn
Hello 👋
the first thing we do is we find the biggest power of 2 that is not bigger than this number
2^3 = 8 < 9
so we know that we will need a 2^3 + something else to make 9
we subtract 8 from 9 to get 1
now we find the next power of 2 that is less than or equal to 1
which is 2^0
so now we have 2^3 + 2^0 = 9
so if we remember that from binary to decimal we use this formula:
x(2^3) + x(2^2) + x(2^1) + x(2^0)
where the xs are 1 or 0 from the binary number
so all we do is we put a 1 in the position that gives us the correct multiples of two to add to 9
so we get 1(2^3) + 0(2^2) + 0(2^1) + 1(2^0)
so in binary 1001
9 = 1001
idk if that helped at all lol
im bad at explaining over text
@gusty ermine ¿podrías decirme el nombre de ese libro que estás leyendo?
perdón por el ping
@bold gull prince doesn't usually see his pings, but I think he mentioned in that channel once if you wanted to try to search up what it was
actually all he said is that it was a book related to The Witcher
if you really want an answer, you have to ping him in #📘・questions-lounge while he's actively in there typing lol
I better go search "The Witcher book" on google, I trust I'll find it.
They are quite famous. The Witcher games and tv series are loosely based on it
Can someone explain to me why this is incorrect?
Like,
A={-1,0,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16}
B={0,1,2,3,4}
HOW TF IS THE INTERSECTION NOT {0,1,2,3,4}???
B = {-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4}
fuck
Note -4^2 = 16!
nice, congratulations
thx!
what about this one
why is it wrong
how am i supposed to know
that it can have 2 elements
tyt
mmmm no se
🆙 | sangstar leveled up!
me odie pure maths
lol
a mi, parece que los elementos de los conjuntos son arbitrarios
por eso no se como es posible decir que puede tener dos
there are no specifications on the elements of A and B
so I don't know how you can make a claimlike that
yeah like
i have literall no info
but it is just wrong like
lets say A={1,2,3} and B={1,2,3,4}
where du get that from?
since it says A has 3 elements and B has 4
right?
its a test
so there is NO way that A\B is different from null
since A is a proper subset of B
set theory?
yes
This is a poor question
there is absolutely no way to make that not be null
since this needs to be specified in the question itself
i got scammed man
no but there is actually no way
like even if A is completely different from B
was my spanish making any sense btw lol
lets say A={1,2,3} and B={4,5,6,7}
I haven't touched it since high school
|A\B| = 3
like
ok sure the answer "it can have 2 elements" is correct
since it CAN
but man what a shitty question and answer
why?
i hate this so much
why?
@shut gull because it CAN have 2
if it can have 2 elements in common
if A={0,1,2} and B={1,2,3,4}
for example
|A\B| = 2
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i hate this
and i hate even more that it makes sense now
xd
i dont even know man
why
this is why I stick with applied
what is applied
yes what is that
pure maths is maths for the sake of it
applied maths is maths to resolve real world problems
basically pure maths is the root and applied is the stem
pure topics are all topics which are then used and made shorthand in applied
real analysis -> calculus

@median trail
209 in base 10 is just
2 * 10^2 + 0 * 10^1 + 9 * 10^0
so, just use the same logic in base 2.
You can also use the same logic in hexadecimal.
209(base10) = x(base16)
16^0 = 1
16^1 = 16
16^2 = 256 (too big)
so in base 16, it should be something like
p * 16^1 + q * 16^0, where p and q are elements of {0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,A,B,C,D,E,F}
therefore 16 * y = 209 - extra bit
209/16 = 13 remainer 1
A = 10, B=11, C= 12, D=13, E=14, F=15
therefore we have
209(base10) = D1(base16)
since D * 16^1 + 1 * 16^0 = 13 * 16^1 + 1 * 16^0 = 209
I think the problem here is you just need to understand what "base 10" means exactly. then from there you can convert to the other ones.
I see a few people have tried to explain this already.
Like,
A={-1,0,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16}
B={0,1,2,3,4}
@real imp Just wanna be nitpicky here notation wise.
A = [-1,16] in this case means all REAL numbers between -1 and 16 (including -1 and -16, since it's square brackets on both ends) {integers, rational, irrational etc...}, just means not complex.
so there's technically "no way to list all the elements here" e.g. the number e and the number pi can be included in set A.
but in this question, you realise that just using the integers is enough here due to the intersection with set B.
a more rigorous way to find which x values satisfy the inequality x^2 <= 16
or you can rearrange it to find where it is below the x axis (y = 0) graph{more algebraic friendly}
similarly you can see if x^2 >= 16, then it's true for
x<= -4 or x>= 4

x = 15
15 is dividing 2x, so in that case you can multiply it by the two that's on the other side of the equations
so you end up with
2x = 2(15)
and since 2 is multiplying the x, then it can divide the expression that's on the other side of the equation
x = 2(15)/(2)
and you can cancel out the 2 that's both in the numerator and the denominator
therefore x = 15
¿Siempre es el denominador el que se mueve hacia el otro lado?
To sum it up:
Since you are in an equation, if you do something to one side, you must do it to the other. So, if you multiply by 15 to get rid of the fraction, you have to multiply the other by 15.
You then have 2x=30. To get rid of the 2, you divide the 2x by 2, and then you must divide the other side (30) by 2.
Then, it brings you back to x=15. You could also multiply by the reciprocal (flipped fractions) to get rid of it. Multiply each side by 15/2.
Thanks!
¿Alguien aquí ha implementado el algoritmo de distancia levenshtein?
no 😭
No creo que ese algoritmo sirve para nada
Cuando lo necesitaba, inventé mi propio algoritmo en su lugar
Hola?
buenas pixie

What's the equation for getting limits haha
i totally forget
I need help with #2 and #3 haha
@abstract scaffold If you have time, can you help me? It would be greatly appreciated.
k
@gusty ermine 2 is too blurry
and i assume the last one is limit approaching infinity
is that 3n^3 on the numerator?
and n^3 on the denominator?
My bad. I will take the picture again. and yes. number 3 is n approaching infinity and the eqation is (3n^3-5n)/(n^3-2n^2+1)
Sorry my phone's broken so I have to use computer camera and the resolution is not good
what u can do for the third one is try to plug in a super big number into ur calculator
for a "guess"
since it's multiple choice
=wolf (3(999999)^3-5n)/((999999)^3-2(999999)^2+1)
=wolf (3(999999)^3-5*999999)/((999999)^3-2(999999)^2+1)
I am not allowed to use a calculator. I am not sure how to do this algebraically
the way to do it algebraically. when dealing with limits with infinity, you want to see what is the highest power in the numerator and denominator
the rest of the powers don't matter. because for example. "x^4" approaching a really big number vs "x" approaching a big number. "x^4" is super big that "x" is insignificant
I see. In this case, there is n^3 both in numerator and denominator, would it be nonexistent?
in my made up example, u see the ones in red are "insignificant when approaching infinity"
@gusty ermine I'm assuming your course doesn't go through l'hospital's rule. because that's another trick that could be used.
Didn't learn that. Interesting name tho.
here's another way to think about it.
factor out the highest power on each. then do some cancellations.
then the limits should be easier to calculate
no no no. factor out the highest power on both numerator and denominator first.
ohhh i see!
the highest power is significant
the other powers are puny
when approaching infinity
for question 2: I'd ask. What is the area of the whole rectangle first?
and, yes. u r on the right track now.
the answer is 3 because as n approaches infinity, the fractions will be smaller and smaller therefore almost 0
yes. exactly
technically i should've placed brackets around the limits on the second line (before i separated the limits out) as to show the whole thing is being taken as a limit rather than just say "3". not including the brackets makes it look like for example "5/n^2" is not part of the limit.
I see. It was pretty clear that lim was both for 3 and -5/n^2
can you help me with number two haha
first. what is the area of the rectangle?
which in this case is?
so (b-a)(d)
Integral of f(x) from a to b?
so my equation is (b-a)d-integral (from a to b) y dx
ok. lemme step back a little. tell me how you'd solve this
get the anti derivative of 2dx which is x^2. then evaluate it from a to b, so it would be (b^2)-(a^2)
derivate of x^2 = 2?
lemme show u another method
sometimes you gotta step back to think "what does integration actually mean"
Area under the curve
Wait
I think the answer's integral (from c to d) f(y)dy
because if the graph rotates 90 degrees its under the curve...?
but then it would have excess area of (d-c)(a)
ur right that it leaves excess for the first one. so it can't be the first one alone. it needs extra terms.
I think the answer is the second one but i don't really get what would be accomplished through (d-f(x))
try to solve the integral partly and you'll see.
you're probably not used to questions where an arbitrary graph is given to you with a shaded area and you have to make your own integral, then hence solve.
one thing someone may do like in the above semicircle example is recognise it's a semicircle and find out the area immediately...
but another thing that could be done is to convert it into an integral and hence solve.
especially if the graph is some weird curve that doesn't resemble any 2D shape area. then a question may just give you a graph with no integral, but you as the person attempting the question need to recognise that it's related to integrals and need to make your own integral and hence solve.
try working from the answer to see what i mean
I tried to integrate that as parts and got d(x)^2/2 (from b to a)- (F(b)-F(a))
split it like i've done.
you don't know what f(x) is.
thus you can't really do it by parts. plus none of your answers in multiple choice seem to have the primative function F(x) in your final answer, only the integrand f(x)
yea...
see if my next line helps
it's very confusing, because the "d" from your graph and "dx" are different. so yes, this letter "d" is a very shit letter
the final line. I don't mean "dx", rather just d*x
haha, u made the same mistake.
I don't know why I am keep doing that!
"d" is just a constant here.
it's like integration is just the reverse of differentiation.... but it's like saying "i know how to write my own name forwards.... but writing it backwards can take a little practise and mistakes may happen"
or writing it upside down vs writing it normally
so mistakes with integration like that can happen
you get confused easily
Haha yeah. I don't think calculus is my thing but I am trying.
WAIT
I get it!!!
integration (from a to b) of d = the area of the rectangle!!! and when the area under the curve is subtracted, the shaded region is what is left!!!
you see what im trying to get at now? you were over complicating it by "going to the final answer", but first you needed to think "what are other ways i could find the area of this rectangle"
I can't believe how simple that was!
Yeah I see why you explained the concepts to me
Thank you so much
any time
Is it possible to ask more questions?
go ahead
first I suggest trying to draw what the question is trying to tell you, to give you a rough idea. "hint, it's kinda like the idea I was trying to get you to do earlier"
=wolf graph 1/(x-1)
i didn't understand the question and what they meant by 'and the lines x=3 and x=4' but im kinda thiking that i have to integrate y from 3 to 4?
because x=3 and x=4 are horizontal lines and that would make almost a rectangle
=wolf graph x = 3
=wolf integrate 1/(x-1) from x = 3 to x = 4
wouldn't it be ln(3/2)? Why does it say log(3/2)?
log = ln
when you see log without a number, assume base "e" most of the time, i.e. log_e
if you do computer science, it's maybe log_2
since binary is common there.
but in the mathematics world, assume base e or ln (which is log base e)
don't worry about it too much. using "ln" everyone should understand.
it is
calculator wise, the log button is base 10
in all my high school and uni life, they've been base e.
so there's always a "trick question" trying to trick ya with base 10 or base e in an exam
i feel like that's some weird australia thing
especially when it's the natural complex log. that's Log, and not Ln
oh apparently it's common in certain fields of mathematics but not others
none of which I took any of in college lol
probably not in american high school level
it's used a lot in statistics and egineering, which I avoided at all costs
Yup math is really cool but it's only for smart people
This calculus stuff is already making my brain explode
ur on the right track for question 7.
think about what tangent at a point means in terms of derivatives.
=wolf derivative of (2x+3)/(3x-2) at x = 1
it seems you flipped the quotient rule a bit maybe
wait no, ur fine.
ur number punching just must have been wrong somewhere
ah. u expanded it wrong.
ur "calculus" was correct, the the "algebra" afterwards was a bit off.
aha i see haha
i am so ashamed to be a korean and be so bad at math lol
i got -13
ok. good. -13 is on the right track. need to know what to do afterwards is the key.
Mmm no idea
what type of "graph/curve/line" is a "tangent"?
I missed the math talk :(
a line
yep, a straight line.
do you remember the formula for finding a straight line given a point?
there are 2 versions.
y2-y1/x2-x2?
that's the reciprocal of the gradient
that's now just the gradient of the line
one version is y1 = mx1 + K
where m is your gradient
and (x1, y1) are your given point
and K is a constant needed to be found.
is this multivariable calculus? 
ooh
point slope form and stuff
this is not multivariable calc
my maths friends are here
ah
i require your assistance
y2-y1=m(x2-x1)
yup
yep
