btw how do I check the answer using wolfram
I guess I can try a specific value of the radius
but how do I make it calculate the flux
There's no command for that (as far as I know?) but you can plug in integrals
the thing is that I am not 100% confident my integral is right
Unfortunately I don't know any tools that calculate the flux given the vector field and the contour
I found this online and they got a completely different answer using green's theorem (I think)
https://math.berkeley.edu/~kwray/teaching/summer_2012/math_53/hw_5_solns.pdf
Idk why they wrote div(F)=0
That's clearly not the case
Nvm it is
Calculating divergence in head isn't always successful from the first try XD
,w Integrate[(R^2 + R Cos[t])/(1+R^2+2 R Cos[t]), {t,0,2 Pi}]
Wolfram Alpha doesn't understand your query!
Perhaps try rephrasing your question?

Good news is that we get the same answer, actually
It's not completely different answer, it's the same answer
I checked 😅
@quaint field Has your question been resolved?
Math
Clearly visible from this integral times R
so I guess you can just use green's theorem and the problem is 100% easier then
Yes
Tbf it depends on luck
No one guarantees that div(F)=0
It could be some scary expression which you would have to integrate over the unit disc
this is how to calculate it, right?
the only issue is at (0,0) the denominator becomes 0
which makes sense because I don't think the divergence would be 0 there
it would be positive since the vector field is radiating outward?
how would I calculate it though
oh, the way they did it was genius
they considered a small circle around the origin, for which the flux is easy to calculate
and then the rest of the region just has div being 0
so it's just becomes the flux of the small circle, which is 2pi
wow
thanks for the assistance btw, @queen herald, I appreciate it

hello i need help im in factoring cases and doesnt matter what i do the answer never matches with the answer keys so please help
You can use the fact that (x-1) is a factor
yes i did try that but at the end it doesnt match with the answer key
i asked everyone but all they did was dissapear the -2 for no reason and they got the answer so idk
x4 + x3y - x + y
You can’t factor that
x(x^3-1) + y(x^3-1)
gcf by grouping
how do you get x to the power of 3?
wait
what happened to the -2
This only works if you wrote the sign wrong
On the +y term in the denom
This is just the denominator
To save some time take a picture of the original problem
i wrote it right
Do you have a picture of the original book?
Also show the answer key while you're at it
alr
Oh the - is on x^3 y term
That makes more sense
This is almost right.
x(x^3-1) - y(x^3-1)
I was upset lol

Xd
a^2-b^2
Result:
-2
What do u mean
i understand this part but what happens to the x to the power of 3
.
ik
You have this $x^6+x^3-2$
Which is the same as $x^6-1+x^3-1$
Samuel
hmmm
so the x to the power of 3 -1 is another case then
because i cant divide the exponent by 2
thx
i already know what to do here

how did they get their answer?
do you know the geometric progression formula and your supposed to apply it here, or are you supposed to work your way to figuring out the geometric progression formula?
i think im supposed to apply the geometric progression formula?
but then wouldnt that be 3(1/10)^n-1?
how do they get from that to 3.1^(1-n)

Do you know how to find the point on the line closest to (8,5,7)?
i tried finding parametric form of the line
and then dot product with the Q-P
but im not getting a value for the parameter
hello?
So you're taking a point R(t) on the line
You should be taking the dot product of PQ with the direction vector of the line
The direction vector shouldn't depend on lambda
And the dot product of two vectors isn't a vector, it's a scalar
ohhh crap
so i need to add all the results
bruh i got confused because of cross product
what is the dir vector of the line
why?
from the multiples of lambda in the parametric form
hmm but why does that become the dir vector of the line? im sorry but idk how it translates
Also works if you take any 2 points on the line and subtract their position vectors
ok so sub in lambda =1,2
for eg
Yeah
but why is this the case?
Idk just intuition
Every time you increase lambda by 1 you move (2,3,5) along the line
oh opk
alright so my method here would work but it would take longer, i should just let Q be (x,y,z) and do dot product of PQ and the dir vector of the line = 0 to find Q
i think i got it
It wouldn't really work
You need to use the direction vector of the line, not the position vector of a point on it

Hey, there - I have a problem with understanding basic solutions. Given a linear problem in standard-form
$A = \begin{bmatrix}
1 & 3 & 1 & 0 \
-1 & -1 & 0 & 1
\end{bmatrix}
$ and $c = \begin{bmatrix}
12 & 2
\end{bmatrix}^T
$
I have a question, which is asking for the number of max. possible basic solutions to this problem. My intuiton told me, that, since I need an invertable matrix for a basic solution, all possible pairs of the columns of a could lead to a basic solution.
Using the binomial coefficient, I came to 6 basic solutions to this matrix and (n choose m) solutions for a general m times n Matrix.
is this approach correcT?
Edlingem
in general not every choice of m columns will give an invertible matrix
Yes, but if I only got a general matrix without any information, I can't restrict the choices any further, can I?
The question, in this case, asks for what the maximum number of basic solutions is

I’m confused by your confusion 
😭
you only care about finding an N st a_n < e whenever n > N
why do you think your choice of N does not work?
it could be complex
wait hold on
okay yeah, it seems like we’re gonna need to break this into two cases, find an N for each one, and then take either the max or the min
note that if eps > 1/3, then a_n < eps always
yeah
it’s the case when eps <= 1/3 that’s hard
thanks
sorry, I’m still working the estimate myself 
should work
if $\varepsilon < \frac{1}{3}$, then
why
higher!
ahh
the point is that the N works if you write it out 
let me try to figure out why my TeX doesn’t work
okk
\begin{align*}
n > N \implies \frac{1}{n^2 + 3} & < \frac{1}{N^2 + 3} \ & < \frac{1}{\left(\sqrt{\frac{1}{\varepsilon} - 3} \right)^2 + 3} \ & = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{\varepsilon} - 3 + 3} \ & = \varepsilon
\end{align*}
there we go

find the relationship, plug in, and solve for the parameter form
youll know the direction from the coefficients
ok ik the direction is <1,1,1>
and maybe im stupid but is x and z just 0?
its not correct here
your direction vector might not be correct and you have a syntax issue
why is the direction/normal vector not right?
is it not just the coefficients of xyz \

From what I'm understanding he's done mg=Fg, then ma=F and those combined are the average force? Is that like a thing??
Isn't that just all the forces acting while jumping? Would that not be like net force instead of average force?

im a bit lost on how to set up the integration to find the volume rotated on y axis
So you have to find the volume of that area from 0 to e underneath both lines
when its spun around the y-axis
this area
me personally I would calculate
*volume
and subtract the triangle bit (which is a cone)
this volume is a cylinder + the curve of 1/x from 1 to e revolved around y-axis
can you imagine this?
what's the formula for the volume of revolution around the x-axis?
also instead of a cylinder
and subtracting the volume of the cone
you can consider the interval from 0 to 1 the volume of revolution of f (x) = x around the y-axis
what way is there to set up an eq for this using y values
the part thats throwing me off is the xy=1
the 1 to e doesnt make sense to me
how can i make an eq with it
if i make an eq, its easy for rotate on x
what's the formula for the volume of revolution around the y-axis?
how to do for rotate ony
for some function f(y)?
use that formula
and set the bounds accordingly
ik formula for volume
how can i set up my integral tho
i cant find a nice way to cut the shape so i can calculate
]
find the volume of the black shape + red cone - red cone
the volume of the shape is equal to the red area from -1 to -1/e revolved around the "new x-axis"
- a cylinder whose height and radius are known

I'm trying to prove every real number , lies between two consecutive integers
So essentially, let $a \in \Z; x \in \R$. so $a \leq x < a+1$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
You could use the well ordering of N
That would work for positive reals
If x is negative, you can consider -x
(how are you trying to prove it? What's available to you - e.g. the whole "[least] upper bound" thing?)
I mean now that I have proven it , yeah
and that $\Z$ doesn't have a lower bound in $\R$ , along with the completness axiom
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
You mean applying it to Z \cap (-infinity, x], right?
That would also work
Not exactly
I was thinking of first considering $A =(- \infty,x) , B=(x ,\infty)$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
Then firstly by the completness axiom , such an x exists
And I then find $\Z \cap (A \cup B)= \Z$
But you already know that x exists, right?
Oh right
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
now let's consider two arbitrary integers a and b, a \neq b b>a
It is not always Z
There is the case x \in Z
I think I'll first deal with the case wherein $x \notin \Z$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
The other case is trivial anyways
yeah
what am I doing
sorry
wait, by the ordering of the real numbers , and the fact that the integers aren't bounded from below, I can say there exists an integer $s$, such that $a<x$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
After showing that $\Z$ isn't bounded from above, we can show that $\exists b$ st $a<x<b$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$
So firstly this shows that every real lies between two integers
@twilit field Has your question been resolved?
Now we know that $b>a$. We also know that $\frac{b+1}{b} \geq 1$ so $a<x< b+1$
Mr bean is not $\R \setminus \Q$

hi how do i do this?
ik $f’(x) = 1 + ln(x)$
Sho
but idk what to do after
therefore what do you think the integral of ln x is?
note that x' = 1
and -x' = -1
sorry im not familiar with the x’ terminology
that just means the derivative of x
ah
same as you used here; except x is a function equal to x
gimme a sec
it makes sense to me if i do this
but cause its a definite integral
idk how to deal with f(x)
F(x) = int(ln(x)) + int(1)
this is just me isolating the int(lnx)
where are the limits
this is what made sense to me for indefinite but idk how to deal with this as definite
hence why i left out the limits
Just + c1 +c2
$\int_{1}^{e} ln(x)dx = [f(x)]{1}^{e} - \int{1}^{e} 1dx$
Astar777
Why did u input these limits
i just sub in the limits to f(x)?
because the question asked to find integral of lnx from 1 to e...
thats how integral works, no?
😂
$\int_{0}^{1} 1dx = [x]_{0}^{1}$
Astar777
same thing here
Yurp

kinda need help i dont rlly understand his last step ik the derivitive of sec^2 is tan but how the did the intergral and du just dissapear?
cuase he didn the integral
so derivative of tan x = sec ^2 x
integral is the opposite
of differentiation
so hes going back from
sec^2 x and asking, what function if differentiated gives this
this is nkown as the primitive function
hmm im not sure i understand not sure if my way of thinking if right since the derivative of tan x =sec^2 x that means the integral of sec^2 x is tan x but bow does the du just dissapear?
yes its right
the du dissaperas cause he did the integral
like he actually integrates it
think of like activating a machine and getting the outpute
before he was tinkerring settings inthe machine (subbing stuff in the integral) then he pessed the button and got the result (tan u) and doesnt care about the machine anymore
ohh so if i think it as lets tan intergral of sec^2 x dx then it wld just be tan x but what if i had smth like intgeral of sec^2 x du then can du just dissapear or?
no the du dissapeared
cause he integraetd it
how do i explain this
like he did the integration
like actually did it
he got the answer
if you integrate integral(xdx) it's just x^2 /2 not that and dx

am i doing something wrong?
,rotate
yes this is correct so far i believe
are you stuck on what to do next?
yes
i would do a substution and replace x with u^2
and also make it so the y is on its own
whats that
so let x equal some number u^2
ohhh
then replace all the x's in your equation with u^2
like this?
,rotate
almost but it wouldnt be -10u^2
what is it]
so 10 root (u^2)
what is root(u^2)
yeah but in terms of u
that would be u
yeah
so all together we have u^2 - 10u + 25 +20root(2) = y
does that remind you of anything
quadratic formula
yes
it says maths error
What did you put in?
yeah sorry i just realised my method wouldnt work
Why wouldn’t that work?
but im not sure how you would solve this as we just have an equation of a line so i dont know how were meant to get to positive interger values for x and y
it would be imaginary roots
i was trying to solve for when y=0 but thats not what we want
it feels like were missing some information for this to be solved
but i might just not know how to do it tnh
tbh*
-(-10)-root (-10^2)-4(1)(25+20root2) / 2(1)
Wait
r u gcse
ive done up to alevel
damn
No this should be u^2-10sqrt(u)+25+20sqrt(2)
how
itwont be quadratic formula ahlie
(5-sqrt(x))^2
5•5=25
5•-sqrt(x)=-5sqrt(x)
5•-sqrt(x)=-5sqrt(x)
sqrt(x)^2=x
25-5sqrt(x)-5sqrt(x)+x
=25-10sqrt(x)+x
that says maths error tho
yeah its not the way you would solve this i dont think
ok i got the answer but im not to sure on the method
i dont know how valid a method this would be so you might want to check with your teacher but ill explain anyway
okay
so we know we want two interger/whole number so we need to cancel out the 20root(2) on the right hand side
so we need the value of (5-root(x))^2 to end up with 20root(2) as well leading them to both cancel out
so that means after expanding when we get -10root(x) we need this to equal -20root(2)
so root(x) must equal 2root(2)
see if you can solve it from there
Wouldn’t we need -10sqrt(x)+25=-20sqrt(2)?
no cause the 25 is a whole number and were only concered with the square roots
the 25 will just help give us the value of y at the end
Hm
25 + x = y
25 + (2root20)^2 = y?
Nope
That’s what the sqare root of x is
yes
yes that is right
oh i think you just made a typo when you wrote this
y is 33
yes
oh yh lol
so the two values are 8 and 33

I'm just going to claim this and I'll write down the questions since it's long
- 33^2x - 3^2x times 3^-1 = 18
- 3^x+2 + 3^x = 1-/81
- (2^x2/2^5x) = 1/16
- 4^2x - 20.4^x + 64 = 0
- 0.001^x = (1/10)^x-3
- (2/5)^x-2 = (5/2)^3x+2
I don't understand how to answer these questions
is the first one 18 or 81?
18
ok so its 33^2x-3^2x x 3^-1 =18
have u done practice questions?
WAIT IM SO SORRY
whats wrong
- 3^2x - 3^2x times 3^-1 = 18
- 3^x+2 + 3^x = 10/81
- (2^x2/2^5x) = 1/16
- 4^2x - 20.4^x + 64 = 0
- 0.001^x = (1/10)^x-3
- (2/5)^x-2 = (5/2)^3x+2
These are practice questions. I know the answer Idk how to solve them
you're familiar with the laws of indices correct?
kinda yes
that alr
so when I say a^-1
what do i mean
if i expand the indices what will it look like
heres an idea
same thing
laws of indices and laws of exponents are the same thing buddy
$3^{2x} - 3^{2x} /mul 3^-1 = 18$
dont stress on it
Wumpus Man
use a latex code generator if not familiar with texit
you weren't taught them?
wait then why r they giving you that exercise
I mean I know the laws of exponent I just- don't like getting confused...
oh ok
Wumpus Man
put a dollar in the end and it will work
huh yea that doesn't look right
mompwomp
Negative Exponent law but used backwards.
Okay

guys, some modulus functions like |2x-5| > |3-x| can be solved by just squaring both sides right, but i remember there are some modulus functions that can't be squared. what is it and why?
any examples?
since modulos is always non-negative, squaring should be fine
at least in the realm of real numbers
i can't find any examples right niw
what if one side has modulus and the other side don't
like |2x-1| = 3
i can't square it right?
that works as well since 3 is positive
if you have a negative side then it's critical
i can't square it?
bcs x is unknown and it can be both positive or negative?
OHH i seee
okayyy thank you so much bacc and alberto

Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
You would basically introduce a new additional solution, since you squared both sides, but that solution wouldn't hold for the equation prior to squaring
You can test it and see for yourself
just saying, if you solve for when both sides are equal
then use a sign diagram
you can't go wrong

What’s the difference between constant function, where different x values give one y and y^2 = x not being a function because one y can’t be determined by two x values? It’s kind of stupid question xd
yes they're different. try plotting it to see
,w plot y=5
,w plot y^2 = 5
But why isn’t y^2 = x a function
Its so Basic I cant wrap my head around it somehow
Like I get it but don’t
,w plot y^2 = x
It fails the vertical line test right
How could This create a graph
How Can √1 be y = 1 and -1 at the same time
Sorry for Basic questions 
From what I see here, they have plotted the graphical solution to y^2 = 5
When you take the square root (as an expression) you take strictly the positive solution (known as the principal root) if you have some equation you wish to solve (e.g. x^2 = 1) then you can have that x = 1, -1
Thanks for answering I think I finally get it

I need help with convergence of fourier series. The situation I am in is that I have an assignment. And my teacher keeps failing me on it, due to him not recoginizing my argument or the theorom I'm using apparently doesn't exist in our course literature
Since he doesn't consider that showing that the function f, satisfies the dirichlet conditions to be valid argument, to why the function converges to all values of f where it is continous
you want us to change your teacher's mind?
No, I want help with a theorom I found in my book
and see how I can apply it to my function
since for me it currently isn't making sense
show the theorem then
It's in Swedish, but I'll try to translate it
The theorom says: Assume that f is C^2 and T-periodic. Then the fourier series converges uniformally towards all f(t)
C^m means that the function f and all of its derivatives up to order m exist and are continuous.
This is my function
And my issue is that it's a piece wise function, which is not continous
and if I take the derivative, I'll have a f that is not continous
I don't really know if I can maybe work with anything here? Maybe prove that it's contious piecewise, and then explore the points of discontinuity with the left and right-hand limit at that point over 2
yea the last idea about piecewise is right
Okay so show that this theorom is true for each piece of the function
Now what conclusions can I draw using the method of left and right hand limit over 2?
at these points?

@wintry eagle Has your question been resolved?
what are you stuck on? did you find the values?
No, my question is what conclusion I can draw by doing that?
what conclusion are you asked to draw
I need to show that the fourier series converges to the function
taking the first derivative, I'll have 4 points which are discontinous, on my function f
This theorom says that the function f has to be continous and the derivative has to exist
Can I do something with the theorom? show that it is continous piece wise? but then what?
show the original question
Here it is
what about this?
You want the fourier series as well?
you should provid all information you know that i don't
that's relevant to your questions and original problem
I mean, I don't really know what is relevant to my question since I am lost
But sure
That's f(t) and that's the fourier series
I don't think we need the fourier series for my question
yea so you need to do it for the entire domain, including points of discontinuity
just looks like t=0 unless there's more in swedish you're not translating
so plug t=0 into the series
which is discontinous
and verify it equals your result here
how come?
Yes? I need to show that it converges for all values, my question is how verifying it at t=0 will do that
sure, we need to explore the point of discontinuity, but what about everywhere else where f is continous?

find the smallest n such that
$\tau(n^2)=3\tau(n)$
Skill_Issue
so like if tau(n)=(a1+1)(a2+1)....(ak+1) then tau(n^2)=(2a1+1)(2a2+1)...(2ak+1)
thats where im stuck
tau(n) is ammount of factors of n btw
not sure if thats stsndard or not
@viral dagger Has your question been resolved?
given that you want to find the smallest solution, it would be a good idea to limit the amount of prime factors to a small number and then see what you can do with that
Brute-forced a solution, it's 144. Not sure how to properly get to it tho.
I'd wager a guess that tau is a function of the powers of the prime breakdown. All numbers with this ratio up to 1000 have 15 divisors and factor as x^2*y^4.
the a_i are those powers
Checked up to 100k, something like 40 numbers satisfy this, all with 15 divisors.
So the problem is showing that only one multiset of numbers, namely $S = {2, 4}$ satisfies $\prod_{i}^{a_i \in S}{\frac{2a_i + 1}{a_i + 1}} = 3$
LooseEthics
no no
the problem only asks for the smallest solution
that is way easier than all solutions
if k=1 then you can quickly check that there is no solution
If you don't care about how you arrive at the solution, then that's 144.
if k=2 then you quickly find (4,2) as a solution which leads to 144
if k>=4, then your number is at least 2*3*5*7=210, which is too big
so then you only have to think about k=3
anyway, @viral dagger isn't here anymore anyway
