Idk combinatorial proof means?
Ohh ok.
you find a combinatorial problem that this expression is the answer to
and then you solve that combinatorial problem in a different way
I did it out
It’s not so bad
I am bad at combi problems 😭
But sure
Lets try
Ok. I will try after my current integration method....
I don’t think a combinatorial proof will be easy because the answer isn’t very nice
True
I am sending the answer I got btw
From the long method
|| $\frac{2^{n-1}(n^2-n+2)-1}{(n+1)}$ ||
Double_mytrouble
I guess spoiler doesnt work for texit....
You can reduce it further too with (n-k+2-2)
,texsp $\frac{2^{n-1}(n^2-n+2)-1}{(n+1)}$ will hide what you write, at least
@woeful trench
I think I got it. These are much easier.
I am just waiting for the combinatorial argument
@keen tundra Brother, what question does it become in Combinatorial proof?
didn't think much about it
but this is a possible solution to problems like this
Our next question is to prove Hockey Stick Identity using PnC
Lets see if I can use generating functions there
and then backtrack
Because I solved the no of integrals solution in a range using hockey sticks previously lol

If you have
VBB >= IB(RB + (1+ Beta)) + 0.7
and
VCC > (Beta)*IB(RC + RE/alpha) + 0.2
Then you can not simply solve for IB in the top expression and plug it into the bottom one with VCC right? Since one is >= and the other is >

No context, what could be the purpose for this?
I don'þ get it either ;v;
why no context
no context no explanation tbh
don't you think that'd be helpful
p is always 0 or 1
this is a jumble of symbols
I was given no context either bro 😭

you dont figure it out, you get told
it's basically useless w/o it

✅ Original question: #help-4 message
what are the zeros
where does your function intersect the x axis if at all
are you 100% sure
you didn't draw its graph completely yet
which x, if any, makes -3x+36=0?
which is here
and then the inifnite

Why is this question this way.
The product of 3 and a number increased by 4 is 26
I checked this with quite a few of my friends who are far farther into math than I and they all agreed that this question is written really shitty and ambigiously
I feel like if it was written "The product of 3, and a number increased by 4 is 26"
I need to like avoid missing that on the Test due monday
So I guess I'll just make a note page specifically catered to this problem
the product of 3 and a number, increased by 4 is what you did
since it'll be written the same
but with different numbers
Pearson so fun..
Not everyone fell for that question though that I asked.
My friend and their SO each had different answers.
My friend who's been helping me study had the same answer as me while their SO came up with the correct answer when asked so like
there must be SOME way to tell
Also this problem since the denominators are already identical all we're doing is solving the fraction?

got a question about an alternative proof of the MCT, and wondering if im not missing anything in my reasoning
before stating it, i make use of a key idea that's a sort of MCT but for sets that i proved; which i use as a lemma
And here's my attempt for a proof of the MCT using this^
Aslan
thx
i see no problem here
after deep read
it's precesly the monotone convergence theoreme
yeah thats what MCT stands for
hm?
hm ?
not sure what u mean by this
oh i see, youre saying im writing it clearly and in a way that doesnt make any big leaps in reasoning?
damn okay
well i guess i felt the proof "must be wrong" in the sense that other proofs make use of measure theory and mine just uses simple properties of sups and limits
its make the proof way more elegant
well thanks

Question:
I am hearing different people saying different things on whether a midpoint rule Riemann sum overestimates or underestimates and integration of a function from a to b . . .
Some said that you can determine that by knowing the function's monotonicity over an interval along with the interval's respective concavity . . . others said that you can't easily determine whether it'd be an under/over-estimate based on the graph's features . . . so what'd be correct?
well maybe you should think about what you're even asking
in the limit the riemann sum will approach the value of the integral
but for finite sums you could see all kinds of things depending on which function you have and how you've chopped up the x-axis into parts
Yes, I mean a finite sum
I will show you a generalization I found from one of the resources on YT
if you do equl sized intervals then the function f(x) = -x+1 from 0 to 1 will not overestimate nor underestimate
but you can come up with other scenarios that behave differently
actually no
I mean one way to think about this for evenly spaced intervals is whether the average of your function values is the true average of the function
and actually yeah I think this will work as I said for that reason
but why are you trying to figure this out
maybe just do some numerical exploration
and interpret the results
that's the best way to learn
I see, so does this conclusion stand for finite sums of rectangles of equal widths:
no not in general
That's right, but I was caught off guard when I saw people saying conflicting things on it
and that if I applied it to some examples maybe they wouldn't apply as a generalization
It's for the calc course I am taking
They ask for justifications on whether a finite sum of an over/underestimate
You could have a small number of intervals and see what happens
assuming the function is continuous - like they could give you a table of values to work with
Right and left sums are simple in that regard
surely if you only have one interval then it undershoots for x^2
so are trapezoidal sums
you have access to a computer and limitless time to work on your assignment
I'm just a guy on my phone on a metro whose going to get sushi
you're asking a very open ended question
Haha, by the way the help is much appreciated . . . I'll do some experimenting with some graphs and see what I come up with, perhaps a generlization
Given a partition you can always design a function that disrespects your partition in whichever form you like
but if you increase the amount of points you approach the true value
Yeah like $||P|| \to 0$
SeaSamak
Monotonicity is a weak constraint because you can still disrespect a partition by forming steep slopes at just the right points
Right, thanks! I do some more searching on this and'll do some testing
Have a nice day! bye

dimension of a cubiod is a,b,c
then prove 1/V = 2/S(1/a + 1/b + 1/c)
S=2(ab+bc+ca)
how
is it not supposed to be S/2
no.....
V = abc
its in denominator
you recipropal both side?
S = 2(ab + bc + ca)
(divide both side 2)
S/2 = ab + bc + bc
recipropal both side
2/S = 1/ab + bc + ca
Well yeah
thats what i am saying
I mean I just put S
recipropal.
In 2/S
Misunderstanding sorry
idk what you did after that
Btw which grade are you in if you dont mind me asking...
9th
but it was 1/ab + bc + ca
....
yeah
no
hello every one
hey
i am trying to understand what you did after this
There are two product of fraction. One 2/S and other (1/a +1/b +1/c)
First you found out 2/S
Which was 1/(ab+bc+ca)
Then you take the other one
its 1/ab + bc + ca bro
Bro thats 2/S
yeah
I am talking about the other think you wrote
can talk me what the question
V = abc
1/V = 1/abc
yes is true
welp
,rccw
Couldn't find an attached image in the last 10 messages.
but the group that abc includ
how do i prove 1/V = 2/S(1/a + 1/b + 1/c)
from where the 1/a + 1/b + 1/c cane from
See the photo. What I wrote is your question. Then I am saying that part
From your question....
Lock in bro
Yes
I put that in place of 2/S
In other words I substituted it
(1/ab + bc + ca)(1/a + 1/b + 1/c)
Yes
what to do after this?
You understand fraction addition of variables? (Geneuinly asking)
Yes
of variables
ok
You know LCM of a,b,c is abc
how can i find variables LCM
?
oh right
You multiply them
alr so
|| (Good lord, I wont be a good teacher) ||
@storm coyote I GOT IT
Ohh ok
i find lcm then its cancel out
and aftre that you find the
Yes
Then you are left with the required value
1/V
Where did this come from ? 💀
1/abc + 1/abc + 1/abc
you gotta tell me how to do addition man
Then multiply bc with both numerator and denominator
i kinda forgot
Watch a youtube video man
why bc
why not abc
9th grade, you shouldnt forget these. Geneuine advice
Because a is already there
1/a
A is there
So multiply bc
i never put much attention to math
since it was easy
it kinda become lil hard in 9th, i just need to lock in a bit
Lol, you will get it eventually. My brother is like this (although he is in 7th standard)
Put a bracket it looks neat (suggestion)
i know i just trying to msg fast
Only ab+bc+ca cancels out
You have 1/abc left
@storm coyote you should gimme a tip to increase math analysis man
Some people get triggered by || job||
i got 98 in 8th but in 9th half yearly i got 79
hah brainrot ig
You live in which country?
india
For the curriculum.
CBSE i am guessing
yes
You will take science in 11th?
I dont too but math after 11 is different.
and 79 in math because i got stuck on a very simple question and lost marks because of time
Understandable
is there even pcb?
Yes
i thought it was pcm and pcmb
There is just a simple math paper (not on advanced level)
Math is there but not on Joint level
but i really wanna take math instead of biology
Well if you are in 9th, you giving NSEJS?
i suck at drawing diagrams and memorizing
Or SEHSS?
no idea what they are
Diagrams disapper after 11th
Only memorisation
These are olympiads
i believe i will get good in math, i never study math even a bit after all
Bro, beleive me it doesnt work like that
I also was like that
Never studied math till 10th
In 10th also I beleived math will be easy
But then in pre board I got 92 ( tripped up a Geometry question of 5 mark and rest silly)
I am weak in geometry still because I didnt study
atleast for me
Btw if you dont mind we can talk in pc, dont occupy this help channel....

Anyone know how to make the answers appear normally?
,rotate
I think it might help if you gave the context of this calculation. is it a polynomial, or a matrix calculation, or something else?
Polynomial simultaneous equation
The answers correct but i need to subtract and add the 2 numbers they give for each x
Might be cause its solved in a matrix but wonder if theres a setting that solves it automatically
what do you mean?
In the answers it gives it shows like
A decimal minus a decimal or a decimal plus a decimal
I think ranes asking how do you make it automatically do that
Yeahh
ohhh
I can’t find anything
i have not worked with that calculator so i am clueless
I hate it
what model is it?

I have that calculator I’ll look at it really quickly
Ti84 gdc
Appreciated 🙏
Dont wanna get stuck on that during a test
Yeah
Ok so I tested it on my calc
And it auto added everything.
How did you make the x y and z into x1 x2 and x3?
Or is that a different mode
I’m on the systems of equations solver
Are you sure you’re in normal mode and not scientific or engineering?

Hi, I asked this question previously here and just wanted more clarity as my research still has led to conflicting results . . .
I was hearing different people saying different things on whether a midpoint rule Riemann sum overestimates or underestimates and integration of a function from a to b . . .
Some said that you can determine that by knowing the function's monotonicity over an interval along with the interval's respective concavity . . . others said that you can't easily determine whether it'd be an under/over-estimate based on the graph's features . . . so what'd be correct?
Based on my initial knowledge and my textbook, answering that question wouldn't be very concrete. Based on other resources, I found the following conflict:
I will send the other source shortly
Makes sense
Yes this is the other source
Yeag
but then why is it that when we have a concave up function, the midpoints sum is an underestimate?
and overestimate for concave down?
Are those sound generalizations?
@restive void Has your question been resolved?
But we can't we suppose the area outside is equal to the gap area inside
Like these
I recall in some case there was a finite middle sum that equaled the exact area under a curve
the point is that the second derivative determines if its an under estimate or an over estimate
It was like a parabola
but that is not monotonic
oh, right
I think I am getting it now
actually it might not matter
because the second derivative of a parabola is constant
So the area outside the concave down rectangular estimate is >= the gap under the curve for the rectangle?
So the blue area is greater than the red one due to down concavity?
I wouldn't know how to prove it, that'd be interesting . . . but as for the intuitive part I might've got it
The weird thing is that there isn't much of a mention of this online . . . like the proof
But only some mention the rule without state of reason
or proof
I really thank you for the help perhaps we can potentially have the proof from you if ever possible and feasible another time
but as for now the question is cleared!
Thanks!

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
god knows
what i have to do
1
and sorta 3
idk what method the ms has
its really weird
do you want to look over the mark scheme or would you like to hear me yap about it independently
u yap abt it independently
ok
ms makes no sense
1-interval trapezoid rule is exact when the function you're integrating is linear
thus when you subdivide, trapezoid rule is exact if the function is linear individually on each piece
that make sense so far?
i got more yaps to come but i want to make sure you follow @signal chasm
yeah ok
so when you divide [0,1] into n equal intervals
the partition nodes are 0, 1/n, 2/n, ..., (n-1)/n, 1
ie these are the endpoints of the subintervals
now the key thing is that your function has "breaking points" at 1/3, 1/2 and 3/4
yes
what you want is that these breaking points should each be a partition node
as i will illustrate shortly
yh
this is what happens when 1/3 isn't a partition node
you get this bullshit with trapezoid rule overestimating the area
we DONT want that shit happening
same story at the other marked x points
no here's the thing
but
what is the partition node
like
thats just the height right
the partition nodes are 0, 1/n, 2/n, ..., (n-1)/n, 1
ie these are the endpoints of the subintervals
like yk the h/2
ok
so a constant gap
in the x axis
right
when i say "partition nodes" i mean specifically the x-values at which you sample your function
do they need to be equally distanced
the question says yes
but that wasnt even my point really
my point was for you to see what happens when 1/3 is not a partition node (red) vs when it is (green)
capisce?
i really dont get
why theres an overestimate
when its not at 1/3
is it jst
a memorisation thing?
no it isn't a memorization thing
i want you to LOOK AT the sketches i have drawn for you
do you see this little sliver of extra area
you should see the little trapezoid right there that i went and drew for you 😭
no i knew that 😭
i meant like
why it goes
from red to red
and then i realised
its making trapeziums
yes exactly
the whole point of all this was that in order to be exact we need 1/3 to be one of our partition nodes
and the story is the exact same for 1/2 and 3/4
do you understand now

Need to draw the set V and write in three different "orders" the integrals
so I know 1 will be a tetrahedron so we need to figure out the vertices
we'll need four points

Is finding the limit of a function just finding at which x y points its at? Ex. lim on pics + graph. The x is nearing 5 at y 1/2
In a way, yes, but the limit is the value when you approach a point, not the exact value at the point.
it means to find an approximate value of the function approaching a certain value in the domain

Hi, is there any other way to solve this integral besides using this kind of substitution because it would never come to my mind to substitute it like this and I need to solve other integrals of similar type so I need another way? Thanks in advance.

Two things:
- Is everything I’ve done up to this point valid?
- Where do I go from here??
Yo
Bruh why u writin csc😂
so ur trying to find
integral of arccosec
,w integrate arccosec(x)
Bro
Anyone can plug anything in a calculator
I’m here trying to do the derivation
<@&286206848099549185>
Anyone???
<@&286206848099549185>
yo
i know lmao
which part exactly
gng yk u can js ask gpt right
It’s the last row
u think ur wrong or ur asking to double check?
I don’t trust that digital duffus
For double checking
So the next part of my question was how do I continue from my last line of math?
Alr
idrk tbh
Note sgn(cosh(θ)) is a constant.
So essentially this reduces to an integral of the sign function
Which is not correct
oh fr
I assume the second substitution is the problem. cosh is not a surjective function.
@umbral falcon
In other words there are values of x for which no real value of θ satisfies the equation x = cosh θ
I see, so what would the fix be? Should I do a trig sub instead of hyperbolic sub?
If you can manage with a tan sub, sure, but a sin or cos sub will have the same problem
I’ll see if I can manage a tan sub
Wait
How would that even work in this scenario?
I have x^2 - 1
So x=sec(t) would be my only option
But sec(t) isn’t surjective
I might have to scrap trig subs entirely at that point
So there must be another viable method
@umbral falcon looking at the form of the WA answer, after integration by parts try taking the 1/|x| and changing it to x/sqrt(x^2). Now perform a u-sub u = x^2
That might just get you somewhere
I’ll try that out
Wait
Do you mean x/|x| becomes
x/sqrt(x^2) or 1/|x| becomes
x/sqrt(x^2)?
Sorry 1/|x| becomes 1/√(x^2)
Ahh ok let me give it a go
||You should wind up with du/√u√(u-1), after the u-sub is done, it looks like you'll need to do the substitution v = u^2 + 1. Then you'll get to dv/√(v^2+1), which is ln|√(v^2 + 1)+v|+C||
After that it's just a matter of rewinding the definitions.
Need to go afk
Marked my work as a spoiler
@umbral falcon Has your question been resolved?
The u-sub is helpful, but then that v-sub, where are you getting u^2+1 from, if sqrt(u) • sqrt(u-1) is equal to sqrt(u^2-u)?
Wait
I have an idea, but correct me if my thinking is wrong
We still do the whole 1/|x| being equal to 1/sqrt(x^2)
But then we multiply sqrt(x^2) by sqrt(x^2-1)
We get sqrt(x^4 - x^2)
Then we can do a trig sub
Where a=x^2 so a^2 is x^4
Thoughts?
Id try an integration by parts
The derivative of csc^-1 has a nice closed form so
Oh you tried it, but your derivative is wrong
How?
Oh shoot, forgot the negative sign
But that shouldn’t be a big deal
I’ll just write a plus sign for the integral instead of minus
Ok just fixed it
But other than that, it’s still a problematic integral
That pesky x/|x|
No I don’t think there should be an absolute value at all
Actually, it’s very necessary to ensure the derivative is always negative, because f’(x)<0 for all values of x
Meant negative
csc(x)=1/sin(x), this means arccsc(x)=arcsin(1/x)
Then it’s just chain rule
Youll always have a negative f’
Itll be what
-1/(x^2(sqrt(1-(1/x)))
Something like that
But if you take the derivative of both sides, it should be possible to reduce everything to the same appearance, hence there isn’t any benefit in finding the integral of arcsin(1/x) and then applying int by parts.
I think your derivative of arccsc is just wrong lol
Arcsin(1/x) and arccsc(x) are the exact same function
And so too are their derivatives
We can either go through a lengthy process and prove that the derivative is correct, or you can do Google or even YouTube searches
The absolute value is included
But the derivative you have is NOT the same as what I got which I just looked up
You can factor out x^2 in the root and youll have |x|xsqrt(1-1/x^2)
Which then you can integrate more easilt

hii! so i have a test tomorrow and theres some things on the practice sheet that i dont quite understand. i would appreciate if somebody could help me understand them a bit. its mainly just inequalities that i dont understand
do i have to send a picture when i ask btw?
Helloo, it would be best if you sent the practice sheet itself ^^
it's not obligatory but encouraged
For number 3 i'm like 51% sure you combine like terms
ty. ill try it and see what i come up w
the answers are on the back but i wanna see if i can get the same answer
That's great!
ty. i think i did smth wrong 😭
oh ty! i think i kinda got the hang of that. i just gotta memorize which one is which
How so?
Which question are you on?
I think you should write it on a separate piece of paper yes
So like
Oh..
\begin{align*}
\frac{2}{3}x - \frac{1}{2} = \frac{7}{6} + \frac{1}{2}x
\end{align*}
You can isolate x on one side and a constant on the other..
Maddie
2/3x - 1/2x = 7/6 + 1/2 and start from here
im stupid 😭 thats what i did wrong
tyall
okay
i got 1/6x=5/3. i subtracted 2/3x - 1/2x and added the other side. did i do smth wrong or do i just have to simplify or smth?
I think there may be something wrong.
You got x/6 correct
but 5/3?
Oh you simplified
Okay, ure good
ohh okay
so to find "x"
multiply 6 on both sides
because x/6 = 5/3, you can remove the fraction from the x by multiplying by 6.
And normally, its well, what we do if we want to find x.
Thats right :3
sorry but how would i know which number to multiply by? is it the greatest common multiple?
lcd
lowest
mb i get it mixed up
Consider 1/2.
To make up 1, you need 2 halves right?
So simply multiply by the denominator on both sides.
This is also quite common if you're solving for x where x exists on a denominator on one side.
For example
\begin{align*} \frac{x^2}{2} = \frac{5}{3x}\end{align*}
ok im very rusty with latex
Maddie
ill leave it at this.
XD its okay. tyall so much!
Have you learnt uh polynomials, if you haven't its okay.
i have at some point but forgot 😭
To isolate x on one side, simply multiply 3x on both sides. Then you'd have 3x^3/2 = 5
Then just multiply 2 on both sides to remove the half fraction.
then you'd get 3x^3 = 10
divide by 3 on both sides x^3 = 10/3
You'll get the hang of it.
tyty!
does this channel delete the messages? i might have to look over it again tmrw
This one's factorising (for when you do it)
tysm!
No. Just do .close
If you need any help you can still DM me if needed
no, they stay here, just remember the number (you may have to scroll a bit)
I think it's like an equation
except if you multiply of divide by a negative number, you flip the symbol
Inequalities simply have you find where on the numberline can x exist.
if x > 5, it means that x can exist only AFTER 5 (it excludes 5).
of course if you have a greater or equal sign, ≥, then x is inclusive of 5.
oh okay that makes sense
im looking at my notes for a problem thats kinda like that one. would i multiply by the 8?
In an interval,
a < x < b
x exists within a and b, but exclusive of a and b itself. The image is a graphical representation (Note that the boundary at x = a and x = b are actually dotted lines, meaning that they are not included.)
Im not following.
all good
the 1st picture is the problem im working on. the 2nd one is from notes i took in class
-2 <= 3-5x/8 <= 1
Multiply everywhere by 8 to remove the denominator.
so -16 <= 3-5x <= 8
Now, lets actually split this up.
case 1:
-16 <= 3-5x
case 2:
3-5x <= 8
So we must satisfy both uh.... cases.
ohh okay ty. i didnt know i had to split them
You dont,
It's just to help you visualize better.
You could just mentally do it, but at this starting stage, you could split it up (IF it helps you).
okay ty ^-^ this is what i got from reading the notes. looks like i kinda got it right
Fun, youre given the function forms.
XD ye
Initially, you have -19 <= -5x <= 5
If you divided all by -5
then
-19/-5 >= x >= -1
tyty!
on the back it says the answer would be [-1, 19/5] so would the -19/-5 change to positive then?
gotcha. tysmm!
meow :3
XD
the rest i think i should have or at least i can find smth in my notes
tyall again 😭

what u want
the derivative?
like
deriving that
i mean
if u factor it out
u shld js
factor out
a+b+c
@stark inlet Has your question been resolved?
the hint is that one bracket is (a + b + c)
which terms must you have in the other bracket to make a^3, b^3, c^3?

Need help with q4
you can use conservation of energy
after it launches from the incline
and equations of motion until it reaches the tip of the incline
find the velocity at h = 10 and then use xf - x0 = v0t + (1/2)at^2 to find the maximum
.
Can you notice it
I
and it cant be 10 because u just calculated that the velocity at h = 10 that is not 0
wait lemme write
its - the acceleration
How to determine the acceleration when block is on incline 🙏
I'll ask exactly if I don't understand your solution
u get the y component of acc on incline which is contrary to the motion of the object
Minus in -gsin30 shows that acceleration axis is taken negative?
yes
the - on acceleration means that the force that is “creating” that acceleration is pointing to the negative way of the reference frame
but it doesnt mean that its automatically deaccelerating, if v and a have the same sign (++ or - -) the object is accelerating
its the y component of the velocity
like
if you throw an object at an angle, it will have velocity that will make him go upwards or downwards (y component) and sideways (x component)
@fair wing Has your question been resolved?
you took acceleration as +10 m/s as it is travelling up the incline
you could reason it for a bit and realize that it cant just accelerate as it goes up the incline
both the magnitude and the direction are wrong
hm you just use the movement equation without t because theres no time
u used it to calculate the distance of the inital movement in the ramp
Closed due to timeout
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
theres only 1 equation of movement, the other variants are just deduced from manipulating v = v0 + at
