help meeeeee

delicate sage
#

Hii

#

Which question??

midnight patio
#

<@&286206848099549185>

delicate sage
midnight patio
#

some are T, U and R

#

I need help with T

delicate sage
#

Okk

#

Let's start with the 1st t

#

Lets there be two sets [A,B,C,D] and [1,2,3,4]

#

Total possible combinations is 4c1 × 4c1

#

Or 16

midnight patio
delicate sage
#

Now just calculate the probabilities for A,B,C,D and 1,2,3,4

delicate sage
#

Probability of winning is 3/8

#

Do I need to explain this ?

#

So in 400 games expectation should be 400×3/8

#

,calc 400*3/8

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

150
midnight patio
#

oh

delicate sage
#

So we see there is a reason to suspect

midnight patio
#

do u know the bottom

#

one

delicate sage
#

Which question?

midnight patio
delicate sage
#

I solved this

delicate sage
midnight patio
#

i dont think it would be a good prove

delicate sage
#

Expectation = np

#

N is number of trials

#

P is successful probability

midnight patio
#

oh

delicate sage
#

So it's a formula based proof

#

I don't think they want you to , write something more mathematical, they only want English and an explanation

7-10
should 7 be be 0, 1, 0, -3 and domain is -inf, inf and range is -inf, 1

midnight plankBOT
#

@brisk crag Has your question been resolved?

modern sapphire
#

yes, thats correct

brisk crag
#

is it the same thing for 9?

#

it's messing me up because the graphs looks different

modern sapphire
#

uhh, graph for 9 is different

#

so nothing has to be same

#

and it isnt

brisk crag
#

Can you help me with it, I dont understand

modern sapphire
#

For domain: What can you say about the lines?

brisk crag
#

they are disconnected

modern sapphire
#

yes, so its a piecewise function

#

but, how does that affect the domain?

brisk crag
#

write 2 domain intervals

#

so -inf, 1] and 1, inf

modern sapphire
#

thats relevantfor function definition, but for defining the domain itself, its not

#

so you can just write the union of the two to say the domain is entire real numbers

brisk crag
#

So I think of them as connected?

modern sapphire
#

Or, the domain is just (-inf, inf)

modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

Okayu

#

But the range will be different right?

modern sapphire
#

Now, onwards to the range: What can you say about it?

modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

All though they are discontinued I can also do -inf, inf because they both go down and up continuously

modern sapphire
#

do they go down tho?

brisk crag
#

oh wait

#

My bad

#

they stop

modern sapphire
#

you have to chek whats the value of x for say y = -2

brisk crag
#

So [1 inf and [-2, inf

modern sapphire
#

its still wrong

brisk crag
#

1

modern sapphire
#

y(1) = 1

#

you can see that from the figure

#

thats what the thick dot on left line means

brisk crag
#

Im lost

modern sapphire
#

At x = 1, you can see theres two lines, but the line on left has a thick dot at (1,1) and the one on right has a hollow circle at (1,-2)

brisk crag
#

yes

modern sapphire
#

that means the function at x = 1 is defined as 1

#

and not -2

#

the filled circle and hollow circle is the graphical notation that says this

#

so technically, there is no preimage for the value y = -2

#

Now can you say how that changes the range?

brisk crag
#

wait so is the range 1, inf?

#

since tha hollow one doesn't count

modern sapphire
#

nope, fory = -1.9 theres still a valid preimage x

#

the hollow is only for single point 1,-2

#

it doesnt say anything about the other points

modern sapphire
#

can you modify it just bit based on this preceeding discussion?

brisk crag
#

[1, inf) and (-1, inf)?

modern sapphire
#

nope

brisk crag
#

wait

#

one second

#

ill give you it

modern sapphire
#

sure

brisk crag
#

[1, inf) -2<x<inf

modern sapphire
#

yep

brisk crag
#

Can i write that in interval?

modern sapphire
#

so instead of [-2, inf) you need (-2, inf)

brisk crag
#

BRUHHH

#

you right

modern sapphire
#

you know the difference [ and ( right?

brisk crag
#

[ is eaxct like a bullet is there

#

( is like an estinmate

#

esimate

#

estimate

modern sapphire
#

Nono, specifically, it means for a set [a,b] the point a is within the set

#

and (a,b] means a is not in it but all the rest of the points of [a,b] are

brisk crag
#

include/exclude

modern sapphire
#

yes

modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

One last thing, so the functional values for 9 are
0
1
2
3

modern sapphire
#

the range can be written as a single set, and its not a piecewise thing since f(x) is defined as a single function

#

so do [1,inf) U (-2,inf)

brisk crag
#

What does u mean again?

modern sapphire
modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

Alright tysm

#

Are there any diffcult subjects in pre calc?

modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

Like really difficult teasers?

modern sapphire
brisk crag
#

Can I hear your opinion?

modern sapphire
#

personally, I struggled a bit with calculating limits

#

the rest was pretty easy for me

brisk crag
#

Do you happen to have notes you can send?

modern sapphire
#

precalc was like 10 years ago for me

#

I have none, sry

brisk crag
#

oh alr

#

Have a nice night

Guys, what i got so far is
6a+b=4

Am i doing it right?

last slate
#

1 work = (rate of A +rate of B) * 4 days

#

make another equation with the second sentence and solve the simultaneous eq

fair kayak
#

Ohh that makes sense

feral sigil
#

No y is negative it's wrong

last slate
fair kayak
#

Ohh

last slate
fair kayak
#

Is that a physics formula?

last slate
#

Time taken by A and B to complete their work = four days
Time taken by B to complete his work = 6+ than time taken by a
Let The work done by A be x

work done in one day=
1/4=1/6+1/x+1/x
=1/4=1/6+2/x
=1/4-1/6=2/x
6/24-4/24=2/x
2/24=2/x
cross multoply
2x=24(2)
=x=24
.

#

idk if this is right

last slate
last slate
#

it’s the same principle here tbh

#

OHHJ I GOT IY

#

it’s like speed = distance/ time

#

I GOT IY

#

I GOT IT

#

only the physical implication has changed

#

speed = rate

#

distance = unit of work done

#

time = well time lol

fair kayak
#

Ohhhh

#

I need to practice my logic

last slate
#

@last slate

#

so makes sense?

#

hey how

#

should i practice eight grade maths

#

higher lvl

last slate
#

this is dino’s channel

#

if u want help, you make your own channel

#

how?

fair kayak
#

Anyways, thanks everyone for ur help!!!

last slate
fair kayak
last slate
#

post your question there

last slate
fair kayak
#

I’m understanding it

last slate
#

wut so do you know how to make the very first equation from the first sentence?

fair kayak
#

(A+B)*1 = 4

last slate
#

time = 4

fair kayak
#

Oyeahhhh

#

Wait whats the rate catcothink

last slate
#

lol

fair kayak
#

(A+B)*4 = 1

#

Ok i got it

last slate
#

but there are two people so you would give them

#

different rates

#

cuz one person could be more efficient than the other

last slate
#

second sentence?

#

you have two unknowns thus u need two equations to uniquely solve for it

#

also wait

#

what’s the question?

#

i forgot but u just posted a statement lol

fair kayak
#

Work = rate x time
1 = B*(6A)

#

This is the question

last slate
#

no question there lol

#

read it

fair kayak
#

Oh yeah

#

Oh ure right

last slate
fair kayak
#

1/B = 4+6a?

last slate
#

Start slower

#

B finishes 1 work in x days at his own rate

#

how do you denote that?

fair kayak
#

Bx = 1

last slate
#

yeah and if B takes x days, how long does A take?

#

according to the question

fair kayak
#

Holdon

last slate
#

If B takes 7 days …. he takes 6 more days than if A did the task on his own

last slate
#

yes okay

#

A finished 1 work in x - 6 days

#

at A’s unique rate

fair kayak
#

Ohhh

#

Ok i think i’m getting it!

#

Thank youuu soso much @last slate

last slate
#

did you solve it though?

#

1 = A (x -6)

fair kayak
#

I got -1 for A

last slate
#

,w A(x-6) = 1 and Bx = 1 and (A + B)*4 = 1

last slate
#

The first solution is not right, why?

#

As in, it doesn’t work in the context of our problem

#

Remind yourself again what A and B means physically

fair kayak
#

Oooooo

fair kayak
last slate
#

What does A mean?

#

or what did you define A as?

fair kayak
#

The person

#

Like his work

#

The effort

last slate
#

No

#

the rate

#

but the rate describes how much work he does in a given time right?

#

So a rate or 1/5 for example, in this context, would mean 1 work in 5 hours

#

i mean falling back to what we described. Work = rate * time so rate = Work / Time

#

so now if u look back at this

#

The first equation says A = -1/4

#

what does that mean?

fair kayak
last slate
#

it days -1/4

#

says*

#

which means he does -1 unit of work in 4 hours

#

which makes no sense (well it could make sense, he could just be undoing the work the other guy is doing)

#

but the reason why it doesn’t work is cuz this dude apparently can finish one work himself

#

so if all he’s doing is obstructing, he wouldn’t have been able to finish the work

#

so A = -1/4 makes no sense in this context

fair kayak
#

Ooohhhh

#

Ok i’m going to try again

last slate
#

anyway i have to go

#

but we’re done anyway

last slate
#

well not the value of A but what does 1/6 mean and what your question asks you to do

twilit field
#

Just wanted to ensure how I would solve such a problem, is right

twilit field
#

so let y=r

#

z=s

#

so i have $4x = 2r-0s$

grand pondBOT
#

ƒ(why am i here )= I don't know

twilit field
#

so $x= \frac{3+ 2r-0s}{4}$

#

is that right?

carmine sigil
#

I don't believe so

onyx plover
#

Where did the three go?

twilit field
#

oops

#

other than that

#

I mean assuming the constant were 3

grand pondBOT
#

ƒ(why am i here )= I don't know

carmine sigil
#

Looks good to me

#

Then simplify

twilit field
#

so $x= \frac{3}{4}+ \frac{r}{2} - \frac{0s}{4}$

grand pondBOT
#

ƒ(why am i here )= I don't know

carmine sigil
#

You can just turn 0s into 0 you know.

twilit field
#

Okay

thanks

can someone say why 180=179'59''60

midnight plankBOT
dreamy lichen
summer ravine
#

hi

#

yes

#

true

delicate sage
#

Just like 1 hr = 59 min 60s

summer ravine
#

yea

last slate
#

yes

summer ravine
#

60*60

dreamy lichen
#

60'' = 1', 59' + 1' = 60', 60' = 1°, 179° + 1° = 180°

summer ravine
#

no

#

wait

#

you can't say

last slate
#

?

summer ravine
last slate
#

its all in degree

#

my book said that find supplementery

summer ravine
#

no way

last slate
#

so it took theta as

summer ravine
#

can someone say why 180=179'59''60.

#

do u want pic ?

summer ravine
#

yea

summer ravine
#

incorrect

#

absolutely incorrect

summer ravine
#

you can't say

i have 5 water

#

I have 5 mass of brain

lavish venture
#

what are you on about meolve

#

maeth already solved it

summer ravine
#

he didn't label it correctly

dreamy lichen
dreamy lichen
last slate
lavish venture
#

yea see

#

it’s because 60 seconds is one minute

summer ravine
#

which one

last slate
#

lit it be supllmement

lavish venture
#

thus 1 minute+59 minutes is 60 minutes

#

which gives one degree

#

so 179+1=180

last slate
#

cuz its 179 59'60''

lavish venture
#

60 seconds is a minute

last slate
#

ye

dreamy lichen
#

and that gives you the missing minute

lavish venture
#

if i told you to dm me in 1 minute and 60 seconds

last slate
#

hmmm ok

lavish venture
#

would that not be 2 minutes?

last slate
#

it makes sense now

#

the 60 gets converted into one

#

and then it gets converted onto one again

#

which adds up to 180

#

Thank you so much

cyan dagger
#

Where is this x^2 coming from?

midnight plankBOT
merry skiff
#

so you have

#

$\frac{x(1 - \cos x)}{\sin^2 3x}$

#

right

grand pondBOT
#

speedydelete

merry skiff
#

now you can multiply both parts of the fraction by x

#

which is $\frac{x^2(1 - \cos x)}{(\sin^2 3x) x}$

grand pondBOT
#

speedydelete

merry skiff
#

then, you can split it into 2 fractions like this

cyan dagger
#

How come we multiply it by x?

merry skiff
#

$\frac{x^2}{\sin^2 3x} \cdot \frac{(1 - \cos x)}{x}$

grand pondBOT
#

speedydelete

merry skiff
cyan dagger
#

This is the full problem if that helps

#

Oh I think I get why it was multiplied by x

#

It was to apply the rule where limit approaching 0 for f(x) = sin theta/theta = 1

#

Maybe?

#

Idk it just randomly jumped to x^2 without explaining why so I didn't get it.

why is this not decreasing at an increasing rate?

could be anything

it’s a function

hard shard
#

oh

#

i get it now

#

my bad

idle valley
#

all good

ocean hazel
#

but the slopes get more and more negative

hard shard
#

if you take derivatives at certain points, the derivative will become a bigger negative number

ocean hazel
#

so its decreasing at a decreasing rate

hard shard
#

e.g. -1,-2,-3

#

this is decreasing

idle valley
ocean hazel
#

2024 ap calc bc frq had the same problem and it was pretty controversial

hard shard
#

you are going down at a going down rate

idle valley
#

going down increasingly quick

#

i have a test on this tmr and my teacher is russian and i can’t understand her 💀

hard shard
#

like jash said, its controversial, so i would advise avoiding the confusing wording

#

oh

hard shard
#

most people would look at the graph of the derivative and mkae their assumption from there

idle valley
#

also i don’t want to do what she wants me to do on the test but then get it wrong on the ap exam

hard shard
#

just consider concave down as "__creasing at a decreasing rate"

#

both in and de work there

#

then concave up is "in/decreasing at an increasing rate"

#

the thing is you definitely understand whats going on, its just an ambiguous wording which one way has been chosen as standard

idle valley
#

I like understanding the whys in math, and conceptualizing it. Conceptually this is hard to make sense of.

hard shard
#

i think it would be easier for you to understand if you think of it as "the derivative is decreasing"

#

since it becomes more negative

idle valley
hard shard

then if you have a positive derivative, you say "increasing at a decreasing rate" and negative derivative is "decreasing at a decreasing rate"

and or positive

alright cool

thank you!

hard shard

the idea of "negative at a negative rate" is up to interpretation though

I am trying to calculate the radius of a circle needed to create an arc between two straight lines at a 132° angle from each other, with a known distance. I would like the circle to intersect each straight line tangent to the arc. I’m sure there’s a formula for this, but I just can’t wrap my head around getting the exact arc. I’ve drawn in all of the known dimensions and where the arc needs to be located. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know if there’s anything else I need to add.

@zealous abyss Has your question been resolved?

zealous abyss

It has not

#

I believe this is another way to put the problem

rocky ether
#

for part 3, how would you find |R3|?

midnight plankBOT
floral apex
#

R is for Radius

#

Usually, you'd use the ratio test

#

Really, it should be positive, the | | are extraneous

#

Does that help?

rocky ether
#

yeah i setup |R3| = |(x-1)^4 / 4! * f''''(x)|

#

but there's also the other way to find R3 which is just R3 <= 1^(2*4+1)/(9!)

floral apex
#

R isnt remainder

#

its a radius

#

They aren't asking you to find the error in the approximation, they're asking you to propose a range of x values outside of which the sum must diverge

#

wait

#

am i stupid thonk

rocky ether
#

how come it's setup like the remainder

floral apex
#

hmm idk probably because i might be stupid

rocky ether
#

😭 😭

floral apex
#

I'm having a hard time understanding the question

rocky ether
#

yeah i'm not rly sure about it either

floral apex
#

Why would the sum not exist?

#

I mean, why would it not existing have anything to do with the 3rd term

#

maybe they mean

rocky ether
#

i saw people online who were calculating the error, but did it in some weird ways

floral apex
#

Provide a range, |R3| > |S-S3|, which bounds the error on the actual sum

#

or something like that

rocky ether
#

i thought error bound only gave an upper bound

floral apex
#

Taylor remainder? Yea, it does

#

which is what you want

#

a bound on the truncation error

rocky ether
#

how would there be an interval if the error is only a number and not an interval?

floral apex
#

At least I think that's what this problem is asking

floral apex
rocky ether
#

🙏

floral apex
#

Say that we name the exact error E

#

then S_3 + E = S

rocky ether
#

yeah

floral apex
#

or, more naturally, S - S3 = E

#

we can also create a bound, using some remainder bound R

#

R is a bound, so it will over estimate the magnitude of the error, since its as big as it can possible be

#

we can write this symbolically as |E| < |R|

#

then $|S-S_3| = |E| < |R|$

grand pondBOT
#

jan Niku

floral apex
#

i guess that should be <= but you get what i mean

rocky ether
#

yeah

floral apex
#

I think the implied interval is [S3 -R, S3 +R]

#

implied that this interval contains S

#

but its not written like that

rocky ether
#

yeah that makes sense

#

but how would you find R?

floral apex
rocky ether
#

cuz there's like this

floral apex
#

yea

#

this is it

rocky ether
#

and |R| <= a_(n+1)

rocky ether
floral apex
#

I could link a video or something if you want

floral apex
#

thats why its a cool theorem

#

I think what you wrote there is saying more or less the same thing

#

assuming a_n is the sequence thats handling everything thats not x-involved in the series

rocky ether
#

for what i wrote i was using a_n = (-1)^n * x^(2n+1) /(2n+1)!

#

so i'd get 1/9! as the maximum R

rocky ether
#

because it doesn't say where it's centered at

floral apex
#

its centered at 0

floral apex
#

see the $(x-0)^{2n+1}$ in the series

grand pondBOT
#

jan Niku

rocky ether
#

got it, what would z be?

#

also 0?

floral apex
#

z is the value of x which creates the bound

#

its some value of x between the center and your chosen value that maximizes the error

rocky ether
#

so center = 0, chosen value is 1, so z would be 1?

floral apex
#

interestingly the theorem goes further and says that there is an x in this range which also makes the approximation actually equal to the real error

floral apex
#

it is whatever makes the approximation the largest

#

so, its a classic calculus problem

#

take the derivative

#

set it 0

#

find the critical points

#

you also need to check the boundaries

#

unless you can intuit that a critical point must be the max

rocky ether
floral apex
#

the theorem says, truncate at term n

#

you can use the n+1th derivative of f (and the other stuff pictured there) to bound the error

#

so, you need to figure out what n is in the problem

#

and find the n+1th derivative of f

#

then, maximize it between 0 and 1

rocky ether
#

so set the next term's derivative of f = 0, so in this case it'd be cos(x) = 0

floral apex
#

although, its sort of baked into the sum they give you, really

#

what you could do here is just maximize $(x-0)^{2n+1}$ on [0,1]

grand pondBOT
#

jan Niku

rocky ether
#

aren't the values of x and n already set?

#

z is the variable rigth

#

or whatever's unkonwn at this point

floral apex
#

kind of, its more clear if you read the statement of the theorem

#

in this uhh

#

maximization problem, its the variable, yes

#

maybe better thought of as a parameter but whatever

rocky ether
#

so since the overall series = sin(x), the (3+1) derivative would be sin(x) again

floral apex
#

lemme grab it

rocky ether
#

and then you'd have to set sin(x) = 0 between 0 and 1?

floral apex
#

i like this statement

floral apex
#

sinx is the function we want to maximize on [0,1]

#

can you intuit where the max will be?

rocky ether
#

it'd be at 1 right

floral apex
#

if we want to maximize sinx on [0,1]

#

we can take sinx' = cosx

#

set cosx = 0

#

find that x = pi/2 seems like a candidate

#

but

#

,calc pi/2

rocky ether
#

that's outside the bounds right

#

ye

#

so yea

#

1 sounds good happy

#

sorry you had to drag me there

rocky ether
#

ok so to fill everything in

floral apex
#

you said this a while ago

rocky ether
#

lol it's good

#

so then the overall would be

#

R_3 = sin(1)/(4! * (1)^4

floral apex
#

yea

#

i'd just call it sin1 / 24

#

,calc sin(1) / 24

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

0.035061291033662
floral apex
rocky ether
#

so then with that R

floral apex
#

,calc |sin(1) - 101/120|*10

rocky ether
#

|S-101/120| <= sin(1)/24

grand pondBOT
#

The following error occured while calculating:
Error: Value expected (char 1)

rocky ether
#

and then it'd be -101/120 - sin(1)/24 < S < 101/120 + sin(1)/24

#

?

floral apex
#

,calc |sin(1) - 101/120|*10

grand pondBOT
#

The following error occured while calculating:
Error: Value expected (char 1)

floral apex
#

since S = sin(1)

#

if you wanted

#

well

#

maybe thats dumb

rocky ether
#

wdym go further

floral apex
#

just being dumb again happy

#

,calc sin(1)/24 / ( sin(1) - 101/120 )

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

-179.1749692793
floral apex
#

wah

#

o

rocky ether
#

what is that

floral apex
#

,calc (sin(1)/24) / ( sin(1) - 101/120 )

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

-179.1749692793
floral apex
#

is it true

floral apex
rocky ether
#

that seems kinda off

floral apex
#

this says its 180 times larger? which seems big

rocky ether
#

lol yeah

floral apex
#

,w sin(1)/24

rocky ether
#

is there something it's usually closer to?

floral apex
#

,w sin(1) - 101/120

floral apex
#

no, its good

#

we definitely bounded the error lol

floral apex
#

i mean, our bound is already pretty small, right?

#

its nearly 3% of the actual value

#

,calc 101/120

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

0.84166666666667
floral apex
#

so, we can say for sure that sin(1) is in about .811666 to .871666

#

,calc sin(1)

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

0.8414709848079
floral apex
#

we just underestimate how good the approximation is

#

which is alright, we were just trying to bound the error

rocky ether
#

so that works

floral apex
#

WAIT

#

:o

#

i am dumb

rocky ether
#

what

floral apex
#

sin is vanishing at even n

#

isnt it

rocky ether
#

what does that mean

floral apex
#

the next term is n=5

#

oh

#

its already captured in the way its written

#

so the 4th term is

#

i mean, our bound is

#

$\sin(1) \cdot \frac{ 1^9 }{ (9)! }$

grand pondBOT
#

jan Niku

rocky ether
#

WAIT THAT'S WHAT IHAD BEFORE

floral apex
#

,calc sin(1) / 9!

rocky ether
#

or kind of

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

2.3188684546073e-6
rocky ether
#

it was just 1/9!

floral apex
rocky ether
floral apex

,calc sin(1) - 101/120

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

-1.9568185877017e-4
floral apex
#

but now its too small bearlain

rocky ether
#

how is it too small

floral apex
#

our bound is smaller than the actual error

#

although i guess

#

what n=5 now

#

so were really working with cos

#

not sine

#

then its just 1/9!

#

,calc 1/9!

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

2.7557319223986e-6
floral apex
#

im gonna need to ask for help

rocky ether
#

i mean if we use this

#

it'd just be (-1)^4 * 1^(9) / (9!)

#

so it says error would be just 1/9! as well

floral apex
#

it doesnt make sense

#

lemme plug this thing into desmos

rocky ether
#

how come

floral apex
#

because our bound cant be smaller than the actual error

rocky ether
#

idt it is tho

#

,calc 1/9! - (sin(1)-101/120)

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

1.9843759069257e-4
rocky ether
#

and that's positive

floral apex
rocky ether
#

oh 101/120 < sin(1)

#

i mean isn't that what the interval is for

#

101/120 + 1/9! > sin(1)

floral apex
#

so R should be bigger than sin1 - 101/120

#

ooo

rocky ether
#

what's up

floral apex
#

according to this the calculator here is wrong

#

which is very suspicious

#

but it would appear that our bound is actually good

#

but, it also says that 101/120 is wrong

rocky ether
#

yeah i think they just plopped a value

#

what does the graph show

floral apex
#

,calc -7!+2^5*7 - 3^7

,calc 7451/7!

grand pondBOT

floral apex
#

ugh

rocky ether
#

what going on

#

😭

floral apex
#

idk this problem should have been so easy just not a great brain day

#

youll have to forgive me

#

what im suspicious of

rocky ether
#

nah allg

floral apex
#

is their value

#

because they have 120 in the denominator

#

which is 5!

#

oh

#

the third term

#

n=2

floral apex
#

then we want to use n=3 to calculate the error

#

when n=2, you get 5! in the denominator

#

,calc 5!

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

120
floral apex
rocky ether
#

hoping with all my might

#

that it's gonna be right this tiem

floral apex
#

,w third derivative of sin(x)

rocky ether
#

wouldnt it be minimized

#

wait

floral apex
#

igotta think more clearly before i just start babbling

rocky ether
#

we're setting -cos(x) = 0 right

floral apex
#

no

#

|-cosx| is the function we want to maximize

rocky ether
#

sin(x) = 0 still?

floral apex
rocky ether
#

is it absolutge value?

floral apex
#

yes

rocky ether
#

alr

#

so then

#

sin(x) = 0

#

at 0

floral apex
#

okay

#

so that part is 1

#

sure

rocky ether
#

so then R <= 1*1^4 / 3!

floral apex
#

,calc 1/(2*3+1)!

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

1.984126984127e-4
floral apex
#

,calc sin(1)-101/120

grand pondBOT
#

Result:

-1.9568185877017e-4
floral apex
rocky ether
#

why would it be 2*3 tho

#

the remainder formula only has (n+1)!

floral apex
#

its unfortunate for you that every other term in sin(x) taylor series is 0

#

its usual to rewrite it without these terms

#

its implied that when bounding the truncation error you use the next non-zero term

rocky ether
#

wouldn't it just be n+2)! then

#

if that's the next term

#

os is the next term just 7!

#

1/7!

floral apex
#

your next non-zero term has 2*3+1 factorial in the denominator

rocky ether
#

oh

floral apex
#

because the one you stopped at has 2*2+1 factorial there

floral apex
rocky ether
#

there exists a term with 3! tho

floral apex
#

black line is the value of the next term

#

red is the actual error

floral apex
#

because its the 2*1 + 1 term

#

where n=1

rocky ether
#

ok so that makes sense

#

so th en

#

R_3 <=1/7!

#

|S-101/120| <=1/7!

#

101/120 - 1/7! < S < 101/120 + 1/7!

#

is the interval?

floral apex
#

yea :)

#

blobsweat these problems always suck

#

idk why this one was so hard

floral apex
#

sorry i didnt mean to come in here and screw up everything

#

ive actually done quite a few of these

#

youd figure they would get easier flonshedcowboy

rocky ether
#

i mean i kinda understood stuff better through the process

#

so yknow

#

mayube it wasnt all bad

floral apex
#

it takes a lot of these

#

i guess thats not truue

#

they always suck is more true

#

maybe you will have better results with practice than me

#

good luck

#

did you have any lingering questions

rocky ether

i think im good

check the extend to 3d box

#

right. you start with 3 dimensions. if you constrain it with one equation you'll get a plane. if you constrain it with two equations, you'll get a line. if you constrain it with 3 equations, you'll get a point

#

so an example of a line would be {y = 1, z = 0}

Is there any way to rearrange RHS into 3tan(alpha - beta)

twin crow
#

The question was if
tan(beta) = sin(2alpha)/(5 + cos(2alpha))

Then prove that 2tan(alpha) = 3tan(alpha - beta)

flat veldt
#

What is beta

mortal pier
#

Still don't get how to rearrange coefficients, but maybe it will help you

twin crow
twin crow
balmy vapor
#

do you know the double angle formulas for cos2a and sin2a?

twin crow
robust forge
#

U should get a relation between alpha and beta

twin crow
twin crow
robust forge
# twin crow

What exactly have u done in the second last step

#

Where did that extra tanalpha come from

twin crow
robust forge
#

Wait nvm sorry

twin crow
robust forge
#

wut forgot it was square

twin crow
#

Yah

balmy vapor
#

alright you need to show that 3tan(α-β) = [tan(α)-3tan(β)]/tan(α)tan(β)

balmy vapor
#

you can use teh inital tanβ equastion to setup a relationship between tanb and tana with the double angle formulas

robust forge
robust forge
#

Then took 2tan²alphatanbeta to the other side and then took 2tanlpha common then divided both sides by -1-tanalphatanbeta

balmy vapor
#

arent we trying to prove that 3tan(a-b) = 2tan(a)

robust forge
balmy vapor
#

why are we starting from 3(tan-tanb)

robust forge
twin crow
# robust forge Here

Aah, i understand what you did there.
But my actual question was since i proved that,
2tan(alpha) = [tan(alpha) - 3tan(beta)]/tan(alpha)tan(beta)

And they told me to prove that,
2tan(alpha) = 3tan(alpha - beta)

Then i can say that,
3tan(alpha - beta) = [tan(alpha) - 3tan(beta)]/tan(alpha)tan(beta)

How do i rearrange this:
[tan(alpha) - 3tan(beta)]/tan(alpha)tan(beta)

Into this:
3tan(alpha -beta)

robust forge
balmy vapor
#

its not the same dude you cant use that identity for trig numbers unless im tripping hard

balmy vapor
#

o nvm yo did the cross multiplication mb

midnight plankBOT

@twin crow Has your question been resolved?

robust forge
balmy vapor
#

I proved it with a really messy way but it holds

#

unfortunately I dont know bot commands so this will have to do

#

@twin crow

robust forge
balmy vapor
#

well yeah I think to solve this you need to equate exrpession with the equation you are trying to prove

and show that its always true

so probably there is a shorter way to do it

last slate
#

is sample variance = population variance if the sample sizes are equal?

last slate
#

dumb question but well my answer is no

#

that's correct right?

modern sapphire
#

ofc not, sample variance depends on what samples you pick

last slate
#

a sample is just a subset of the population right?

#

I mean yes i chose no but the answer was yes lmao

modern sapphire
#

the ofc not meant, it would not be same

#

and you are correct indeed

last slate
#

okay anyway so like

#

in the formula

#

the sample mean would be equal to population mean in this specific case right?

#

but in general the formula distinguishes itself there too?

#

@modern sapphire right..?

modern sapphire
#

if sample size and population size is same

#

otherwise not necessarily

yall crying for help rn i would be very very gratefull all the ais gave up on me <@&286206848099549185>

last slate
#

correct?

#

in this special case

last slate
#

even if not it's still trivial because L is the inverse of all the elimination matrix

#

but wait this is my channel so u should prolly ask elsewhere
