let me look at it for a sec
= 1 [1/(1/a)] at this part is the one in front of the [ supposed to be there
is the last line a =
Yeah
so u mult the LHS of the top line by 1/(1/a)
Yes
Well, both sides
You have a(1/a) = 1 so multiply both sides times the inverse of 1/a
ohh yeah, but why did you do that?
Why not?
fair
So a(1/a) is a real number, do you agree
yeah since it equals 1
So just call b = a(1/a). So when I multiply a(1/a) times the inverse of 1/a we are multiplying b times 1/a so we are multiplying two real numbers
And the reals are closed under multiplication so you can do that
i like that way too, what does closed under mult mean?
That if you multiply two reals you still get a real
Same with addition. If you add up two reals you get a real
oh ok, i think i saw that in the book too
well thx for the assitance, u a math major
nah

So there's a rectangle with
perimeter of the base is 52 cm.
The length and the height difference is 8 cm.
And the widsth minus the height is -2cm, what is the volume of the block?
idk how to solve this
Let the length be x, the width be y, and the height be z
Then, you can formulate 3 equations from the 3 pieces of given information
What are these equations?
Uhmm
the volume is xyz then
x-z = 8
y-z = -2
x = z+8
y = z-2 ?
z(z+8)(z-2)
i dont get it
(z²+8z)(z-2)
z³-2z²+8z²-16z
so now you have $$x+y=26$$ $$x-z=8$$ $$y-z=-2$$
Civil Service Pigeon
and you can start solving
what you did here is a good start
||You could've substitute these into x+y=26||
Ohhh
z+8 + z-2 = 26
2z = 26-8+2
2z = 20
z = 10
y = -2+10
8?
x = 26 -8 which is 18

Can anyone walk me how to do this
Through
Derivative is 3x^2 + 3
Also here
I did every other part I just dunno how to find the inverse derivative
Here's an example if yall wanna see
<@&286206848099549185>
Let me see
Which question are you needing help with?
You’ve got quite a few screenshots
Only the second one
I figured out the first one
This?
This one
Yep
The third screenshot is just an example for you
Of example answers
What
Oh I set the original equation equal to 0
Wait I mean
Set it equal to -14
And solved
I used a calculator
Oh wait
Now all I do is plug -3 back in the derivative
Alr
And get -20
So it's 1/-20
Ok
The inverse of this function is essentially the same function, but f(y)=x
Ok
Right
I would say because this time you have an even number for your power
So the negatives cancelled out
That would be my guess
OH
YOU'RE RIGHT*
Right
No I just did bad algebra 💀
Soery
TYSM
💀
LMFAO
Glad to help.
Right!
Imma leave this open cuz I need more help with inverse functions

Why is 5 subtracted here ? I didn't understand in example 7
I didn't quiet understand what it means by leaving remainder 5 because i did the euclid division method without subtracting the 5 and didn't get any remainder as 5 anyway
Can someone please help me if u understand
,rcw
@orchid gazelle Has your question been resolved?
did you loud understand?
Loud understand?
well you didn't quiet understand
Lol yeah i looked at a similar problem i got it
:|
Lmfaoo i got what u were saying now
I was so confused
okay but as for your problem
think simpler terms
what's the largest number that divides 10 and 26 leaving a remainder of 2 in each case
well
let's try 8
because obviously 10-8=2
you want something that when you divide 10 by it, it has a remainder 2
the obvious choice is 8
and for 26, the obvious choice is 24
for the same reason

im stuck in functions proof
Let F:A->B, where A!=emptyset then if F has cancelation property from left, then it has left invertible, how to prove it?
well thats false
that's actually what my lecturer wrote on the board
wait im sorry so much
i updated the statement and wrote a proof if you could check
@fast elm Has your question been resolved?
how about you actually show the proof
No need to ask “Can I ask…?” or “Does anyone know about…?”—it’s faster for everyone if you just ask your question! See https://dontasktoask.com/
second formalling it
i got stuck on it :((((((
okkk
@runic hamlet i think i got it, ill send it
User
Let f:A->B, where A not emptyset then if f has cancelation property from left, then it has left invertible: is my proof correct?
Let f:A->B, f has left cancellation proprety, we must show f has left invertible g s.t g∘f = Ida.
first at all lets prove that f is injective: let x1,x2 s.t f(x1)=f(x2), thus x1 = ida(x1) and x2=ida(x2), thus f(ida(x1))=f(ida(x2)), now because of assumption that f has canceltion property from left, idA(x1) = idA(x2), idA is injective function thus x1=x2.
now f is injective, lets prove f^-1 is a function, let x,y1,y2 s.t (x,y1) belongs to f^-1 and (x,y2) belongs to f^-1, let show y1=y2.
(y1,x) belongs to f and also (y2,x) belongs to f, f is injective so y1=y2
so f^-1 is a function so f^-1 ∘ f = IdA -> f has left invertible
QED
@runic hamlet
why are you inserting ida in the first part
not necessary
I wouldnt call the left inverse f^-1. just call it g
@fast elm Has your question been resolved?
oh
Yes g ok no problem
but is the structure fine?
or i could proof it easier
i think i overkill this topic
its fine. what you havent shown is that g is actually a function
right now you only have a partial function
you only have pairs (y,x) if (x,y) was a pair in f
what if y never appears in f?

✅
i did prove, firstly shown that f is injective, then shown f^'1 is a function?
you have shown its a partial function. you havent shown that you can have a total function g
im not sure what that means
@fast elm Has your question been resolved?
@fast elm Has your question been resolved?
currently g(y) is only defined when there is an x such that f(x)=y
(and then you say that g(y)=x)
but what happens with g(y) if there is no such x
g is supposed to be a function, so its supposed to do something with those y aswell

what does this notation represent and what argument should I study to be able to calculate its derivative and a related(?) delta integral?
ok thanks. what type of math is it related to?
wdym
it's part of a big exam called mathematical methods so I have zero clue what to study
¯_(ツ)_/¯
the exercise says to take that and calculate a derivative for x>=0
and the result is supposedly a sum
I'm so confused with those things because I wasn't able to follow the class and I'm studying it all by myself
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
read such an example, and rest you should analyse by yourself:
translation: define f(x)=floor(x^2) where floor (y) is the greatest integer <=0. i) Calculate f'(x) for x>=0 ii)Calculate integral

why/how did the left side get factored the way it did?
they took tan(x) common
xy-x = x(y-1)
its same as
2x^2 - x = 0
x(2x-1) = 0
taking x common here

I'm confused about number 11
the context in this question is that the vowels are always together
So I assume the formula goes like this? 7!/3!
when it says "the vowels", does it mean all 3 vowels together?
If so:
HEXAGON
EAO
HXGN
I've divided the word in two sets. The set of vowels, and the set of consonants
now:
You know that all three vowels can be in any order. How many ways can you order three vowels? -I'm calling this a
You know that the four consonants can be in any order. How many ways can you order four consonants? - i'm calling this b
The block of vowels has to be either in between any two consonants (3 positions) or at the start or end (another two positions.
So you will have a*b*5 ways
I guess so
can you get a and b?
I got 720
Btw where did you get 5?
Im confused about the number 5
I wonder where you got that
@final wedge Has your question been resolved?
I would say 5 is different ways you place the vowels
You have 4 none vowels, so there’s 5 ways to place the chain of vowels.

$\int \sin^{-1}(x) \dd{x}$
_Ω_
Im having some trouble with this equation
I found the answer but cant seem to find out how they got the answer
Whats the answer
$\sqrt{1-x^2} +xsin^{-1}(x)$
_Ω_
👍ok
i get the xsin^-1 part
Integration by parts?
$xsin^{-1}(x) - \int \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^2}}*x \dd{x}$
_Ω_
substitution
so u = 1-x^2
Yes
and du would be -1x dx
-2x dx
yeah
but i mean shouldn't you also get the right answer by integrating by parts again?
Yeah, but why would you?
IBP again is overcomplicating things
this integral is just u-sub + power rule
at first i didn't think of u sub and i tried to do it again but got a wrong answer. I think i just need some more training with u sub
Yeah, practice is the best thing to get better at spotting u-sub

Hello
How can I visualize this?
That D_vector u f(vector a) is referring to directional derivative
From where is the angle coming from?
Where is the starting point of that angle?
recall that
the directional derivative in the direction of u
is the same as
the gradient dotted with u
right?
Yes
$$D_{\vec{u}}f(\vec{a})=\nabla f(\vec{a})\cdot \vec{u}$$
Austin
That's some fast edit 😎
now if we are considering, where is this the largest or smallest
take the magnitude of both sides
$$||\nabla f(\vec{a})\cdot \vec{u}||$$
Austin
wdym largest or smallest?
We'll get to that
Okay okay
Austin
because there's one key formula that they use
||a||||b||•cos(theta)?
how do I stop spoilers
well earlier we described how the directional derivative in the direction of u was this
so now apply the formula above
Ohhh since they are both vectors
yes
Ohhhhh wait
Does that mean the angle is referring to the angle between nabla and u?
nabla I mean gradient
yes

i have to solve the following differential equation : $\frac{dH}{dt} = rH - \tau$
LF
i know its a separable equation but something confuses me
at some point after integration we arrive at $|rH - \tau| = Ae^{rt}$
LF
the solution from the manual (and wolfram alpha) seems to complety ignore the absolute value
what is the justification for that?
the constant A assimilates it
Sometimes, in books we write, A with tilda, or another symbol to show it
but since H depends on t, couldnt the sign of rH - tau change at some point ?
making A not truly constant
is that what the tilda means (that its only constant for some interval)
here, A is constant, i personally write big C
right but depending on the sign of $rH(t) - \tau$ youd have $H(t) = \frac{\tau}{r} \pm Ae^{rt}$
LF
if you ve got IVP, some initial condtion, that helps to make solution better, but in generalsolution we do nto worry ab constants
H is funciton of t
not a
i guess my point is more that A is a function of t
it is not, i can show you my solution of yoru equation if you like
but you did well
but what if rH-tau was negative?
A is a constant, that assimialtes all pluses minuses and eventually other constans,
yoru A = +-A
yoru A eats plus minus
informally saying
yeah i see what you mean but my problem is that whether its plus or minus depends on t
yeah i have initial conditions so it fixes everything
i was just wondering what to write if i didnt have this info
yes okay thank you
well put
so im not looking for a global solution
just a local one
right?
ok
alright thank you very much

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
2 for a,b,c and 1 for d
i've gotten to basically the same point for a,b and c
but i'm a bit confused on what to do about the absolute values
as for d, i havent really much of an idea
everyone ignores the absolute value on these which good job for remembering them
issue is that i'm not sure if i'm supposed to ignore them or not
sec and cos as well?
also, what about d?
yeah, you can write the assumption to the side if you're uneasy about it
it tells you the sub right? try that
oh it's not immediately clear how to do that huh
i briefly tried, but i cant see where i'm really going with u = tan(x/2) tbh
okay, will do!
what's problem 19.11? have you looked at that?
and now i have to find 18.10 ugh
ヘイリー
we have not yet covered the hyperbolic trig functions yet either
apparently $\tan(\sfrac x2) = \f{\sin x}{1+\cos x}$?
ヘイリー
ngl i've never seen this identity before, but i suppose it's convienient for this huh?
yeah prove it for yourself (it's not too far from the one I called up earlier) but yes v convenient
got it
damn i hate the fact that i dont know the half-angle identities well
completely forgot them lol
tbh I don't know them either
I only know the double angle ones for sin and cos, and cos is kind of a guess

how would i start this?
arc length of curve formula
there's no dy or dx though
x = rcos(theta)
y = rsin(theta)
can use this to derive the arc length for polar formula
so is it just x=theta(cos(theta))

$e^{-x^{2}}$ Find the derivative
Merineth
You‘ll need the chain rule
I‘m not sure I get what you mean. Do you mean after taking the derivative?
Well the chainrule states that i find the deriviate from the most outer into inner multiplied with each other, right?
and the most outer is 2, then -x and lastly e
I already knew the solution however i want to learn the process
i think giving the solution is useful since it shows you what to do
So ideally i want to use substitution method here and not chain rule?
If you sub you‘ll need chain rule in the end because u is a function of x
But you can sub if it helps you

as per chain rule, $\dd{x}e^{u(x)} = e^{u(x)} \cdot u^{\prime}(x)$
ℑμΤ𝛄𝛗θ
Wrong differential symbol but you get the idea
i use chain rule on u(x) first and then deriviate e^u'(x)
Okay that wasn't too hard !
So you got the same answer as the other guy esrlier?
yes!
I don't really like the way we write dy/dx = dy/du etc
as that isn't sosmething i've remembered or learned
but seeing it like you wrote it as e^u(x)
makes it a lot clearer

tysm!

What is the derivative of $x^{x}$
Merineth
What is the derivative of $x^{x}$
well you have two options really
implicit differentiation or using the chain rule via taking the logarithm and exponential of the function
which one do you want to use
chain rule i think
okay then
so you mean i use the rule for a^x first and then deriviate of x^a?
note that [
\m fx = e^{\m\ln{\m fx}}
]
so do that
I have no idea what to do
$y = x^x \implies ln(y) = ln(x^x) \implies ln(y) = xln(x)$
Is this fine?
xln(x) isn't to hard to deriviate, but what about ln(y)
that doesn't become 1/y, right?
If middle is ln(y) then yea
I remember something with "respect to x"?
yeah my bad
Merineth
just differentiate e^xlnx
Almost though(!) remember implicit differentiation
Tl;dr if you differentiate a function of y with respect to x, multiply the result by dy/dx

How does it work?
multiply the result by dy/dx
i don't even remember what that means
Alright then implicit differentiation another time 
See here
why would i do that?
That’s what you get when you do this
because u say u want chain rule
I mainly want to know how to solve it
but if
ln(y) doesn't become
1/y
then
idk what to do
and i need help showing it
I don't understand or rembmer how dy/dx or w/e that is means
basically “the derivative of y with respect to x”, you may have seen it denoted as y’ maybe?
Like if you differentiated y = x^2 with respect to x, that turns into dy/dx = y’ = 2x
Anyways, if you took logs of both sides that’s an implicit differentiation problem
y*
implicit differentials is when i make it into an equation?
that's very badly worded
I don't speak math
implicit differentiation is basically like chain rule
if you remember the chain rule states that like
the derivative of the "outer function" multiplied by the "inner function" gives you the derivative of your entire function
Yepp
so like when you have an implicit y, like with ln(y)
you are dealing with like
,, \m f{\m yx} = \m {f'}{\m yx} \cd\m {y'}x
which is what happened here, just replace f with ln
Like i'm sorry but i can't learn this way
Then learn both ways
$ln(y) = xln(x) \implies ln(y) = ln(x) + 1$
Merineth
you apply the chain rule as is done here to get $\ds \f1y \cd \dv[y]x$
so i take 1/y * (ln(x) + 1)
no
Then waht do i multiply it with then?
,align
\f1y\cd \dv[y]x &=\m\ln x + 1 \
\dv[y]x &= {\c b{???}}(\m\ln x +1)
what is ??? do you think
1/y would be my guess
substitute $\dv{y}{x} = t$ for any variable
Bishop
Bishop
y
,tex but if you did that you would get
\env{align*}{
\f1y \cd \dv[y]x &= \m\ln x +1\
\c b{\f1y \cd} \f1y \cd \dv[y]x &= \c b{\f1y \cd}(\m\ln x +1) \
\f1{y^2}\cd \dv[y]x &= \f1y \cd(\m\ln x +1)
}
yes
So when it says "with respective to x" and we are not dealing with x we just multiply with dy/dx and solve it like an equation?
wha
and then substitute y with x^x
arent you trying to find dy/dx?
if so then multiplying by y basically makes you "find" it
But isn't how i worded it exactly what we are doing?
$ln(y) = xln(x) \
\frac{1}{y} * \frac{dy}{dx} = ln(x) + 1 \
\frac{dy}{dx} = y(ln(x)+1) \
\frac{dy}{dx} = x^x(ln(x)+1) \
y' = x^x(ln(x)+1)$
Merineth
If you mean you have some function of y, and you’re differentiating that wrt x, basically yea 
So for example say a circle, x^2 + y^2 = 1, if you differentiated y^2 with respect to x, that’s 2y * dy/dx, so that would turn into 2x + 2y(dy/dx) = 0, and you solve for dy/dx
And as here we knew what y was explicitly, we can put it back yep 
Yeah that makes sense
So basically finding the derivative of y and then multiplying it with dy/dx, and treat it as an equation
so for example if i had
$x^3 +y^3 = 6xy$
Merineth
Merineth
Not sure what 6xy would become however
can i treat it as 6x * y where f(x) = 6x and g(x) = y?
Alright thinking that way makes it a lot easier
Some people forget however how hard math is
I can't keep up with math language ;-;
Awww 
Merineth
And i move down the x in the denominator
does it become + or * between the 2 and sqrtx?
u get
1/2*sqrtx
Ok!

Hey guys I just want to know if my homework answers are good and having trouble with some questions:
for this:
his pub has the following selection of drinks:
• 5 different types of craft beer, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5,
• 4 different types of cider, C1, C2, C3, C4, and
• 3 different types of soda, S1, S2, S3
Over the course of the evening you have 5 drinks. In each of the following scenarios,
count the number of possible drink combinations (the order of the drinks matters):
a) You have 5 drinks of any type and drinks may be repeated.
for a I put 12^5 which im pretty sure is right
You have 5 drinks of any type, but do not have the same drink twice in a row.
for this i did 12 x 11 x 11 x 11 x 11
c) You have 5 drinks, but limit yourself to exactly 1 beer and exactly 1 cider.
for this i dont know? any1 can help me for this one
You have 5 drinks and at least 1 of the drinks is a soda.
i believe im right for this one: 3 × 12 × 12 × 12 × 12
a, b seem right
wouldn't this be 2^5? or does it imply that you HAVE to have both of them at least once? the wording is a bit ambiguous?
or does it mean that you are only limited in those categories but can have freely of the other categories? dunno, i feel like its very ambiguous
i feel like it could be 1 * 1 * 12 * 12 * 12?
or no
or maybe 1 * 1 * 10 * 10 * 10?
the way im interpreting (most likely) is that you are only allowed two types of drink (one beer and one cider) but it is very poorly worded and ambiguous, i could make arguments for like 3 different interpretations of this
it doesn't say that the restrictions differ from drink to drink though, so i wouldn't interpret it that way

so I seperate the expression into 3 parts
8th root of x^9, y^8, and z^16
for x^9, it is x^8 * x^1 the x^8 comes out
yes
so its x 8throotx
y^8 and 8th root cancel
and z^16 is gonna be z^2
so u combine to become
z^2 y x 8throotx
but where tf does the absolute sign come from
is it because it perfectly cancels out?
I got it right cuz my answer was the same as number 3
but idk why the absolute sign is needed
,, \sqrt{x^2} = \abs{x}
kanna
so yea?
well if it were $\sqrt[3]{y^3}$ it wouldn't have an absolute value
🫎 ムースィー (Moosey) 🫎
cuz its odd?
yes
so if x, y, and z all were squared to 8
then it would be absolute value of all 3 variables?

P(x) has only 1 real root (which is 1) ==> the equation x² + kx + 1 = 0 does not have any real roots
which means that the discriminant is strictly negative
Wait how is it strictly negative?
Oh yeah
cause P(x) has only 1 real root which is the root of the polynomial (x-1) so the other quadratic have no real roots
So do I make am range for what values it could be
calculate the discriminant of the quadratic (in terms of k)
then solve the inequality: discriminant < 0

yes, thank you for explanation
oh so basically... does it mean that the reflected line is just opposite of the original line
yes, kind of
you can think about it like a mirror
alright, how do you do the question i sent in the beginning
just add negative to the x part
so its -2x+4
which is also 4-2x

i have a question
can you type out the formula or explain what you mean by "N per year"?
the compound interest formula for t periods at an interest rate r is P(t) = P_0(1+r)^t
I can't read the letters in the particular formula you were taught
yeah go with your formula
in the formula I gave, "t periods" means how many times it's compounded and "interest rate r" is the interest rate per period
so if it were compounded semiannually for 5 years with an annualized interest rate of 10%, r would be 5% and t would be 10
for me t was the year
if you define t as the number of years and N as the number of compounding periods within each year, and r as the annual interest rate, you can get an equivalent formula:
P(t) = P_0 (1+r/N)^(tN), but it shouldn't be hard to see this is exactly the same thing as I gave
in any case, you probably shouldn't be trying to memorize the formula

why is it that in question 3 the defined functions are connected with the limits
but in question 4 they are separate and hole discontinuities
the conditions $\lim_{x\to 0} f(x) = 4$ and $f(0) = 5$ force a discontinuity

you could throw a discontinuity somewhere in the graph in 3 and still satisfy the other conditions but it's unnecessary
