How can you represent a matrix on graph paper
As in can anyone represent [1 2 3] and [ 1 ]
2
3
Ughh
One is row and another is column matrix
wdym “represent a matrix on graph paper”
What is geometric representation of a matrix
If it's just some numbers then what sense does it make?
when you multiply a matrix and a vector you get a new vector
so you can interpret the matrix as something that transforms vectors to new ones
it’s late and i’m on my phone soz don’t have the energy to type out a computation involving matrices
What about multiplication of matrices??
Sorry
Elaborate pls
Square matrix multiplication i can understand as a composition of transformations
But what about something like a 5x3 matrix multiplid by a 3x7?
Ah, sorry maybe i should take my questions to my own help channel
As in?
What are transformations?
I just started matrix

I've trouble articulating this
Do I just say there exists no $x \in \set R$ such that $0 < x < 1/n$ for all $n \in \set N$
Sadie Carnot (η = -1)
For any x I'll give you a sufficiently large n
Isn't that kind of cheaty though since that's what I need to prove
You are proving that the intersection of those sets is the empty set
And you are proving it by showing that no real number could be in all of those sets because then such x would have to satisfy 0<x<1/n for all n in N
I mean if you want to prove 0<x<1/n for all n in N is impossible for any x, then choose n > 1/x by the archimedian property and you have found a counterexample
Oh that makes sense actually
I can just say this and tag on "due to the Archimedean property"
Okay thanks!

hi
i was wondering if there is a better way to solve this than using ghe quotient rule
$\frac{d}{dx} \left( \frac{7x^3 + 27}{63x^7 - 28x^5 + 243x^4 - 108x^2} \right)$
Alex
Factorise maybe?
Yeah
But ultimately u gotta use that u/v time tho
,calc 243/27
Result:
9
,calc 108/27
Result:
4
,calc 63/7
Result:
9
,calc 28/7
Result:
4
,w factorise 63x^7 - 28x^5 + 243x^4 -108x²
what is that magic?
Wolfram magic
Lol

is the interval for the negatives values of sin 0 to - pi ?
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
okay basically
what you said is technically right
but since sin is periodical function
well sin(x) is a periodic function so there are more intervals than that, but yeah one of the interval is that
there's a butch of intervals
but yeah 0 to -pi would give you every possible negative value of sin x when evaluated
,ask graph y = sin x
like look even pi to 2pi gives you negative values
so yeah this is one of the intervals

Try expressing the intersection of W1 and W2 as a set first
Set will be {x,y,z,t}?
it should be set of vectors
which vectors are in both in form (x, y, z, x, z) and form (0, x', y', z', t')?
Is this wrong sir?
(x,y,z,t)
well, this vector has just 4 entries
while both W1 and W2 have vectors with 5 entries
so W1 intersection W2 should have vectors with 5 entries too
Should I include 0?
E.g. one member of W1 intersection W2 could be
(0, 3, 4, 0, 8), because its both in the form (x, y, z, x, t) (for x = 0, y = 3, z = 4 and t = 8)
And also in the form (0, x, y, z, t), (for x = 3, y = 4, z = 0, t = 8)
And to determine the dimension, it would be a good idea to either find the general form of vector in W1 intersection W2, or find a basis
So if we have a vector of form (x, y, z, x, t), when can it also be written in the form (0, x', y', z', t') for some x', y', z' and t'?
Are you still here?
Even the 0 entry has to be included, (0, x, y ,z, t) isn't same as (x, y, z, t)
Oh you're offline :/
I am reading
@bleak pier Has your question been resolved?

(0,x,x,x,t)

(0,x,y,z,t)=(x,y,z,x,t)

calculate the area of the enclosed region between the x-axis and the graph of $\f(x) = \frac{6e^{3x}}{3+e^{3x}}$ for $0\leq x \leq5$
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
Why don't you use an integral calculator?
so what you are saying that I need basically to calculate $\int_{0}^{5} \frac{6e^{3x}}{3 + e^{3x}}$
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
?
should be right
yep
okay
ok i didnt knew that, math isnt as fast for me
so I prolly need to do partial fraction decomposition
consider other techniques
ibp?
you can use an integral calculator. Full steps will be provide. Off the bat I can't see a way to perform partial fractions
u-sub
okay, u = 3 + e^(3x)

,, \frac{du}{dx} = 3e^{3x}
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
$\frac{dx}{du} = \frac{1}{3e^{3x}}$
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
$\int \frac{6e^{3x}}{3+u} \cdot \frac{1}{3e^{3x}} = \int \frac{2}{3+u} \cdot du$
an integral calculator is not needed by any means here
this is easier
this function does have an elementary integral function
should just be du not du/dx
yep!
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
,,2\ln\left(3 + e^{3x}\right)
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
- C
sure but we need to evaluate on 0 and 5 and subtract them
its definite not indefinite
,, 2\ln\left(3 + e^{15}\right) - 2\ln\left(3 + e^{0}\right)
938c2cc0dcc05f2b68c4287040cfcf71
,w 2ln(3+e^15) -2ln(3+1)
thank you for the help
lowkey thought partial fraction decomposition might help but as the other guy said, we got nothing to factor
whatever
thanks

is this correct
i feel like im doin wrong
What do you need to find?
find the set of values of x
Do you know the areas of the given figures?
they didnt give us the area
area of rectangle is greater then triangle
aaa ruined the whole thing
Oh this is a quadratic inequality then
u sure
then i dont need to do question bc not in my topic list
Yeah, if area of rectangle> area of triangle
(x-1)(3x-2) > 2x(x)/2
Solve this and you will get solution set of x
kk got it boss is fine i dont need it 👍

Yes
Ok
We can battle them in the arena
No you have
So
We can choose any 3 of 9 in
9c3 ways
Now for 3 to be placed the probability is (0.01)³
So its 9c3 * (0.01)³
Here you wrote 4
Something 'between'
Here the question is different
C means combinations
ncr is defined as
n!/(r!×(n-r)!)
For 4 balls it would be 9c4 × (0.01)⁴

the top face of the cylinder of mercury is not in contact with glass
You must only calculate the curved surface area of the cylinder and that is 2πrh
no, also the bottom face
Oh and add th area of the base too
yh
2πrh + πr^2
the surface area of a cylinder of height h and radius r is 2pi r h (the curved part) + 2 * pi r^2 (the top and bottom circle)
it doesnt matter
since oyu only need to know the surface area of the section that is contacting the mercury
the question is slightly vague in that sense
but the assumption to make is that the glass cyclinder is open at the top, so you can could actually pour the mercury in
and so the top face of the cylinder of mercury is in contact with the air
thus you dont include that top circle of surface area
gets rid of one of the circles
One circle's area is pi r squared
The top isn't covered, that is what we are assuming
R squared
don't conflate area with volume
See, let's get the basics right, the circumference of a circle is 2πr. A cylinder is formed when all these circles are stacked together, giving us some height. So the surface area of a cylindrical with no lids is the perimeter of one circle multiplied by the height. That is, 2πrh.

heyy guys, im at first year undergraduate physics course and i need help with linear algebra
it says "Given U and W the following subspaces of R4, Find the dimension and a base of U, W and U intersection W"
i've solved other exercises about base and dimension before, but the vectors were always given, i dont have any idea of what to do with "a, b, c, d"
Try to form a basis for each subspace
Since the vectors in U are independent of A, (1,0,0,0) is in the basis
thanks! I'm gonna try it! Soon i'll be back with the results
@true knot Has your question been resolved?
i isolated d = -b -c
Then expressed the vectors like this:
(a, b, c, -b-c) =>
a(1,0,0,0) + b(0,1,0,0) + c(0,0,1,0) + b(0,0,0,-1) + c(0,0,0,-1) =>
a(1,0,0,0) + b(0,1,0,-1) + c(0,0,1,-1)
And got to the conclusion that (1,0,0,0), (0,1,0,-1), (0,0,1,-1) can be expressed as a basis. Is it correct?

is there an easy way to prove this graph has no hamiltonian cycle?
@maiden river Has your question been resolved?
I'd look at what happens after the cycle visits the triangles on the side. Since the cycle needs to go through 12 - 21 - 32 and 14 - 25 - 34 You can look at the necessary path to connect those two segments in a cycle.
it should reduce to showing a few symmetric cases are impossible (unless I'm missing something)

could anyone help me with this question, I can get the uniqueness part of it, however, just solving that there exists a h and k st g = hk is giving me some greif. Any help would be great, thanks.
I tried just trying to show that the image of gh^(-1) is in the kernel for some h, which seems like the right direction, but I don't know how to proceed.
because wouldn't that mean that h = g? which is not necessarily the case
the homomorphism maps from G to H, and g is an element of G 
yeah sorry, I dont follow
I guess we can then prove that H=G?
if $\phi : G \to H$, and $g\in G$, is there a statement you can then make from those two? (something very "obvious"!)
@tribal temple
oh, it pretty much follows directly from the 1st isomorphism theorem? is that what you were thinking?
Well, not quite what I meant-
I was looking for you to notice that $\phi(g) \in H$
@tribal temple
omg
haha
yeah, thanks a ton. that makes sense

so here are my equivalence class
1-{11 22 33 44}
2-{11 22 33 44 12 21}
equivalence classes should be subsets of S
in this case
an equivalence class consists of the things that are equivalent to each other
is this wrong?
like {1,2} is an equivalence class, for example
because (1,2) is in the relation, and there isn’t anything that says “1 is equivalent to 3” in R
the ordered pairs are sort of saying “these elements are equivalent in R’s eyes” when R is an equivalence relation
so we can ask the questions like “in R’s eyes, what is 3 equivalent to?”
3 is related to which?
yeah we can ask a question like that
33
44
two equivalence class
but here 1 is related to itself and 2
and same prolbem with 2
we want that though
like that’s fine for us
to say 1 is related to itself. in fact, all elements are related to themselves when we have an equivalence relation like this.
can i ask you a question that sounds different but is actually the same as this?
yes you can ask
if i have the set {a,b,c,d}, and a=b, and b=c, then how many different objects are there in my set?
2?
a a a d
yep
so here two different cases in my question
related to iteself
and related to vice versa
1 2
21
so i’m going to say that the problem you’re doing is the same thing. there are actually more than two. replace “related to” with “equal to” in your mind for a second
so the relation R says “ 1=1, 1=2, 2=1, 3=3, 4=4”
now how many different objects are there?
so we are asking a simple question to the relation R
which is defined on the set A
how many different objects in it
yeah, and R will answer differently from us, because it thinks some of the objects we see as different are actually the same.
yes
so we will say “there are 4 objects in S” but R will tell us “i only see 3 equivalence classes”
because R thinks 1 is the same as 2
[1]= 11
[2]= 22?
[1] is all the things R thinks is the same as 1
no need to use double numbers here, we just want the things that R sees as 1, which will be in S. so R thinks 1 is the same as 1, and same thing for 2 (R thinks 2=1), so [1] = {1,2}
i see
so let’s try the same thing for [2]
[2]={21}?
yep, and notice that’s the same set as [1]
okay great. what about [3]?
i meant total 4 classes?
just one. it’s the same equivalence class
or just 3?
in total you get 3, we won’t count it if we get the same set as we’ve already counted
don’t use double numbers
dont use double numbers in the [1] or [2] case either. we want to be precise with what we’re saying, so we want a subset of S. this means we really have to say “what is the collection of things in S that are the same as 1?” “what is the collection of things in S that are the same as 2?”
that will be a set, so we have to use the curly brackets, and separate things with commas clearly
closer now
remember this!
okay it gets even better, the only thing left to change is [1] and [2] to include everything
okay great
so those are the equivalence classes
is this correct now?
so we can do it directely by asking that questioin
yep
so you do this process, and then count the number of different sets that you get
for small sets it’s easy. as you get practice with it you might develop some tricks
but this is really exciting stuff, this is really foundational to a lot of mathematics
yep
we will have total 2^3=8 relations
wait uh, this is not how you count them in general
and classes will be
what do you mean exactly by relations here
we haven’t defined a relation
there are 8 subsets yeah
but there are no classes because there is no relation to ask what the classes are
in the subsets ab ba same?
yes, but make sure that you use the right notation for it, because it’ll be a pain down the line to correct yourself
{a,b} and {b,a} are the same
R = {(a,a),(b,b),(c,c)}
for this relation
yes yes
i guess this concept of classes is very important in maths
it sounds amazing
yes they’re everywhere
they come up in geometry a lot, also in algebra
in analysis even
real numbers secretly use equivalence classes a TON
you can define equivalence relations on really really big sets, and end up with a small set of equivalence classes, and then do interesting math to that
for example
if i take the natural numbers and define an equivalence relation
{(0,0),(1,1),…
(0,2),(2,0),(0,4)(4,0)(2,4)(4,2)(0,6),…
(1,3)(3,1)(1,5)(5,1)(3,5)(5,3),…

where i just have all the even numbers related and all the odd numbers related
then the equivalence classes are
[0] = {all even numbers}
[1] = {all odd numbers}
which is a cool example of an equivalence relation on the natural numbers
yes
in fact equivalence relations are secretly the same as partitions
every equivalence relation gives you a partition (into “things that are equal in R’s eyes”) and every partition gives you an equivalence relation ((a,b) is in R if they’re in the same set of the partition)
so this equivalence class and partition same?
i meant in this example equivalence class and relation are same?

is there like a compilation of properties or like formulas for the relationship between triangles and circles, along eith triangles and their special lines
i mean like fmproperties of incircle, excircle, properties of angle bisector, ect
i keep running into questions that use properties i didnt even know exists and i just want to try to learn em all
i guess the Mathematics textbook is a good compilation...
wdym
sin^2 = cos^2 - 1, u = root 1 - u ^2
I mean that that there are some textbooks which have these relations and formulas
well i dont have the textbooks that you are talking about ig
im not even sure which exists unfortunately

hold on
Steal wat
my man there isnt a shortage of channels, no one is competing
sorry, just tried to be funny
anyway
i dont know how to get the overall success rate
show "example 2.3.9"
the text mentions of example 2.3.9
real
wait hold on example 2.3.9 isnt really relevant, my question is pretty simple: how should i calculate "overall success rate"? im supposed to be comparing a legitimate medical test, and a bogus test that just says whoever takes it doesnt have the disease
slayla
sure
fungusdesu
for the legitimate test, i can get p(diseased|testedpositive)
but i cant do that for the bogus one
since no one ever tests positive
sorry, wdym?
no nothing, im just acknowledging you
oh okay
but yea, my idea of getting the overall success rate would be to use p(d|t) and p(d^c|t^c), but i can only calculate one of those for the bogus test
is there anything u guys want me to elaborate more on
would it be better if i made this a post instead?

for the first bit do i just it prove it by inserting the values in the gp equation? also how do i deduce them as a function of n? especilly for u_n
Working
you can try just plugging in the formula for u_n into the formula for v_n, see what you get
how do i do that for u_n when idk what the r value is
just try it
so you are given u_{n+1} = 3u_n - 4
yes
but you want u_n = ? instead of u_{n+1}
yes
so you just change the index to get u_n = ?
then substitute that into the formula given for v_n
yes that is how i got all of this
what im asking is how do i deduce both of them as functions of n
you were finding particular values of v_n. I am saying not to do that, and find another formula for v_n
oh
oh, your original post asked about the first part
should be raised to the nth power, not n - 1 (so you can get v_0), right
yeah I guess so
then how would i make n the subject
you don't
then how do i the second part-
you've already found v_n as a function of n
no, why would you
i thought making a function of n means making n the subject
no
if y = mx + b, y is a function of x
or if y = ax^2 + bx + c, y is a function of x
ooooh
etc.
yes you can. you are given another formula for v_n. use that

Find the number of ways in which 10 balls can be selscted from 10 identical green balls, 10 indentical blue balls and 9 identical red balls
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
$y \leq 10 $
combinatorics
$z \leq 9$
ƒ(Why am. I here)=I don't Know
other than brute force
how would I do it
i.e listing out the possilble solutions are permuting them
generating functions is an option but kinda need to know some special stuff to do it like that without a computer
does the order matter?
doable by hand though
Do you mean that each ball isn't unique?
yes
any other way?
there are "formulas" for problems like these that you can get out of doing generating function stuff
idr what they are off the top of my head
i would just have to do generating function stuff if i had to do a problem like that
I did it by listing out the solutions when it came in my exam

imagine a coinflip game where the players have to bet or dont bet if it will land on heads(you cannot bet on tails)(however there are strategies i.e. following the hand movement that allow some people to predict better than 50 50) say when person A bets on heads he is correct 80% of the time while person B's heads bet is correct 70% of the time. person C does not have any skill in following hands but his advantage is that he knows the winrates of person A and B and is able to see if they are betting or not. what would be the best strategy for person C and what would his winrate be?
i would guess the best strategy would be to only bet when both A and B are betting, cause A has an 80% winrate and the fact a 70% winrate is also betting, should make me even more confident, but does that increase the 80% even higher for person C?
This is a problem about conditional probability.
You find P(heads | A and B bet heads)
alright, so lets assume P(heads) is 0.5
Unfortunately, the problem is a little bit underspecified
ye i was asking chatgpt and he said 56% chance for person C while in my mind clearly it is at least 80 if not higher, so im probably not giving enough details in the question, what information did i skip?
In order for you to do better than 80% winrate, it cannot be the case that B only bets when A does.
Please don't ask ChatGPT
ChatGPT is horrible at math
ohh haha
can you elaborate?
If we assume that whether A or B bets is independent of the other, we can solve this question
Otherwise, if A and B are dependent, then we would need to know how.
ok so A and B are independant, they both use their own unique strategy of i.e. following hand movements or checking the direction wind is blowing
i had a probability course in uni, but its long ago and i dont remember how to do stuff anymore haha
but i will recognice what the syntax means at least
so this is the chance X happens, given the A happened right? or was it reverse
The first
ok
P(X given A) = P(X and A)/P(A)
ahh yes i recognise that one
Unfortunately, we don't have any way of specifying P(A) that's just information we don't have
However, we can forge ahead anyway
P(X | A and B) = P(X and A and B) / P(A and B)
And due to independence P(A and B) = P(A)P(B)
0.8 * 0.7 = 0.56
I'm not sure this has a single answer
No, P(A) is the probability that A bets on any given throw
Which isn't specified
ahhh
What if A only bets when they're really really confident, like 1 in every 20 throws?
what would be the issue with that?
Might change how the two probabilities interact.
ahhh
ye that is indeed what im confused about, i might not be able to know the answer then if i do not know both of their amount of bets?
i made it up, as a substitude for a more complex situation
Ok, so imagine a given sequence of heads and tails, a random sequence where each entry is independent of the previous and following.
HTTHTHHHHTHTTHTTHTTHTHTTH
So A chooses 10 and gets 8 of them correct on average
B chooses 10 and gets 7 correct on average.
But there's an underlying sequence
That is 50/50 on average
So the more densely A and B choose, the fewer "free" heads there are, meaning that A and B become more dependent on each other
And the less densely they choose the more "free" heads there are, so they become less dependent.
The fact that there's an underlying truth here makes this problem not as trivial as you had hoped
What is your original problem?
The one you are attempting to solve via analogy

How can you tell this is absolutely convergent? I know if the sum of the absolute value of the n^th term converges, then the original series converges absolutely. So do i do the ratio test on this series but ignore the (-1)^n?
well the ratio test only says whether a series is absolutely convergent (not conditionally), although i don't think that would be the easiest to apply here
i would instead take the absolute value (which just gets rid of the (-1)^n), then use something like the limit comparison test with a p-series (which is usually a good strategy for rational functions)
so I should be comparing it to 1/n^2?
which converges
and its smaller than 1/n^2 right
that seems to be true, although i think it would be easier to establish the limit comparison

what is the difference between identity relation and reflexive relation?
For any set $X$, a relation $R$ is just a subset of $X\times X$. The relation $R$ is said to be reflexive if, for all $x\in X$, $(x, x)\in R$. A relation $I$ is an identity relation of $X$ if, for all $x, y\in X$, $(x, y)\in I$ if and only $x=y$.
SWR
In short, every identity relation is reflexive, but not every reflexive relation is an identity

The two triangles are similar by AAA property, right? Do you think we can use that?
The answer is 5.25 , I think
how did you come to that?
no i do not
Do uk the concept of similarity is triangles?
yeah
yes
yes N and C are the same
And BMN and BAC are equal because the parallel lines are interesting the same line, so the angle at which they intersect would be the same
So since all corresponding angles are equal, by AAA property we can conclude that they are similar
With me so far?
Since the triangles are similar, the ratios of corresponding sides are equal
yes i think im on to something
This is what you should do after that Ig

not sure how i would go by this
the first 1 i get
it would be b
but the 2nd one is it d?
yea
howd you get that tho
cause the longest side has the largest angle
smallest side has smallest angle
and angle in between has the angle in the middle
so if u use that logic in reverse
Nooo the longest side is opposite to the largest angle
yea
thats what i said
so for a the greatest angle is b
In a right angle triangle, 90 degree angle is always the largest angle
and least is a
Yes, not a
uhhh ok
i found smallest angle mb i was doing part 2
yea so basically just know that side lengths correspond directly to angles
if the side length is the longest the angle opposite is the largest and angle'
applies to every side
yea

and how would i solve this

then isolate?
Yes. 12*5/3 = x => 60/3 = x => x = 20
sin 30 = 1/2
but can i use the other method
=> 12 / 2 = x => x = 6
x= sin30x12
Yes, this is correct. Just put in the value for sin30.
