[little wraith]

or we’re both wrong

[fringe prism]

whats the command to flip the paper again

/flip thing

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

why no work

[little wraith]

this is the problem right

[fringe prism]

i tink

[sturdy knoll]

cant you cancel the bottom out

angone know the answer?

[little wraith]

i expanded the top to (1-x^2)(1+x^2) so yes

then u cross out

[sturdy knoll]

i got rhat

[little wraith]

me too

then it becomes x^4(1-x^2)

[sturdy knoll]

yeah multiply it out

[fringe prism]

wait what

22/7 - pi

[sturdy knoll]

how the hell

[little wraith]

how

[sturdy knoll]

is that thr actual answer?

[fringe prism]

expand x^4(1-x^4)

x^4-x^8

[little wraith]

u expand the ()

[sturdy knoll]

why tho

[little wraith]

using difference of squares

and then simplify

it’s correct

[sturdy knoll]

cancel out denominator firsy

why expand

[fringe prism]

bc then u can simplify with long ivisosn

[sturdy knoll]

but if you js factor 1-x^4

you can cancel the both out

[little wraith]

then i made two dif integrals

[sturdy knoll]

simplify the integral

[sturdy knoll]

yeah

[little wraith]

yea and plug in and you’re there

[fringe prism]

ok lemme do yal way

o ShOoT

[sturdy knoll]

see

[little wraith]

yes

this is the easiest way

it’s messy as hell

[fringe prism]

lol i did some rubbish way

[little wraith]

we’ve all been there

🥹

[fringe prism]

): rip the speedrun

-# pov ur cheming rn

[little wraith]

😣

[fringe prism]

will i get flamed if i say math < chem

[little wraith]

im taking chem next yr i think

[fringe prism]

is it ap

[inland totem]

chemistry?

hated that...

[little wraith]

not sure probably not

i’ll be a freshman

[fringe prism]

bruh its so fun

[little wraith]

in tenth i choose my ap classes but im allowed to do ap math next year

i will

[inland totem]

i don't like remembering all the rules for solubility and whatnot

[fringe prism]

so rubbish LOL

[fringe prism]

tf is ap math

[pallid tundra]

they’re all the same in their triviality

[little wraith]

not ap HL

[inland totem]

ap

[little wraith]

high level maths

[pallid tundra]

AP precalc should not exist

[little wraith]

my school is weird

[inland totem]

is advanced placement

[pallid tundra]

both ap calcs are jokes

same with AP stats

[inland totem]

i'm taking that next yr as an 8th grader

😭

[pallid tundra]

it’s easy asf you’ll be fine

[daring sparrow]

guys did you solve the integral

[little wraith]

yea

[daring sparrow]

it was (1-x)^4 not (1-x^4)

lolol

[little wraith]

it’s 2/35

[daring sparrow]

no

[little wraith]

did i do the wrong problem

[inland totem]

yes

[daring sparrow]

it's (1-x)^4

not (1-x^4)

lowk

[little wraith]

i did this

[daring sparrow]

you did, in fact, do the wrong problem

[daring sparrow]

ts is wrong

[little wraith]

oops !

[daring sparrow]

it's (1-x)^4

also why you asking chatgpt

🙁

putnam link on aops

[fringe prism]

ap what

what math

[inland totem]

ap ap

[daring sparrow]

ap ap ap

ap ap ap ap

[sturdy knoll]

try ts out

it’s fairly simple

[daring sparrow]

no

wait

how are the fractions grouped

[sturdy knoll]

it’s really simple

[daring sparrow]

ik it's binom theorem

[sturdy knoll]

idk man that’s the whole question

[fringe prism]

LOL

[daring sparrow]

who tf made ts

it's so ez

[sturdy knoll]

yeah idk how it’s the medium

for the day

it’s so easy

[daring sparrow]

1/3 rbo

so ez

[sturdy knoll]

yeah

i lwk fidnt see the expansion at firsy

so i started doing synthetic

[inland totem]

DAILY CALCCC

[sturdy knoll]

it was stupid ash

[sturdy knoll]

yup

you alr know

[daring sparrow]

also where tf is this daily integral

[sturdy knoll]

it’s on the website

yo i’ve managed to reach the medium

let’s flipping go

the hard one tho i have no idea how to do ts

[inland totem]

i've only been able to solve the hard like 2-3 times a week

😔

[sturdy knoll]

ive done

1 i thjnk

ever

who is solving all of tjo

this*

yeah idk ts

[daring sparrow]

ok

i js started doing daily int

niccc

$\int_0^1(x+1)(x^2-x+1)\ \dd x=\frac54$ was my first prob

[gilded halo]

nadat12

[daring sparrow]

yayy

[sturdy knoll]

the easy and beginner ones are really really easy

[daring sparrow]

mayb

[fringe prism]

wha

[daring sparrow]

oh shi

i dont know my trig ints 🙁

[sturdy knoll]

dyk

[inland totem]

i split into intervals

[sturdy knoll]

your

pythagorean identity

[inland totem]

but dunno how to proceed

[daring sparrow]

oh wait

[sturdy knoll]

yo i got a question

[daring sparrow]

i could prob headsolve sin^2cos^2 x

[sturdy knoll]

how do you learn the stuff to do the hard integrals

[sturdy knoll]

?

oh

yeah

nvm

i read it weong

[daring sparrow]

1/4 sin^2 2x

usub

[0, pi/4] 1/8 sin^2 u

wait i forgor about factor 💀

and then int by parts?

[inland totem]

chat solve today's limit

took some brainpower

[sturdy knoll]

holy shit

[daring sparrow]

oh shi

it's lhop isn't it

[sturdy knoll]

yo

the hint says

[daring sparrow]

aw fck i dont wanna differentiate the top gng

[sturdy knoll]

taylor series expansion

[daring sparrow]

tf????

[sturdy knoll]

idk the taylor series icl

[daring sparrow]

taylor buhbuhbuh

icltspmo

wait

wtf do they mean "taylor series"

could i lhopital bash?

[sturdy knoll]

you don’t need the series

i’m looking at the app

sol*

yo guys

are there any channels that teach stuff for amc and shi

[long garden]

??

wtf is ap hl..

isnt there only ib hl

[long garden]

wouldnt this be the closest..

[sturdy knoll]

what

[long garden]

do you mean servers

[sturdy knoll]

nah i mesnt lile

yt channels

[stuck tartan]

js like swap the summation and the ingegral to get $$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{3^n} \int_{0}^{1} \lfloor(2^n*x) \rfloor$$

[sturdy knoll]

wait how dyk you can do that

[gilded halo]

vivdax

[stuck tartan]

fubini's

[sturdy knoll]

and i also have no clue how to integrate floor functions

[stuck tartan]

also like double counting

[stuck tartan]

break it up

into the intervals

so integral of floor(2x) from 0 to 1

would be integral of floor(2x) from 0 to 1/2

and integral of floor(2x) from 1/2 to 1

which is integral of 0 from 0 to 1/2 and integral of 1 from 1/2 to 1

[little wraith]

i said not ap, but hl

[long garden]

ohh

i have no idea wym..

[long garden]

um

sohil rathi

[fringe prism]

whats hl

[fringe prism]

THE GOAT

[sturdy knoll]

yo i’ve seen this guys vids

like

while teyna find ones to watch

do they acc help

[fringe prism]

probably

[stuck tartan]

probably more helpful to like

do problems on ur own

[fringe prism]

probably

[sturdy knoll]

yeah but for sum rheres lile theorems and stuff i don’t know

so i can’t do some problems at all

[sturdy knoll]

wait havr you watched any of his stuff

[long garden]

when youre on the sol page js like

click onto the formulas

and read up

[stuck tartan]

try learning them

[long garden]

on theory

[stuck tartan]

?

[sturdy knoll]

cuz i see two lile

playlists

[long garden]

and then like try to do problems on it

[inland totem]

wait

[long garden]

also you can js get like books in general to work through

[sturdy knoll]

that’s what i’m tryna accomplish with the yt vids

[stuck tartan]

try like learning them from a book

or handouts

or soemthing liek that

[inland totem]

ehh, yt vids sometimes have just as much value as a book

and they're free

[little wraith]

high level french version of ap basically

[sturdy knoll]

guys which one do we feel is better

[fringe prism]

o nice, im taking ap french next yr

[sturdy knoll]

mastering amc 10/12 course or amc 10/12 fundamentals course

[sturdy knoll]

bro i hate french

i’m gonna take ap french eventually

[stuck tartan]

?

[fringe prism]

probably like doing a buncha past rpboelsm

[sturdy knoll]

but i hate french

[fringe prism]

pourquoi?

[sturdy knoll]

my teacher

[inland totem]

i know how to solve it now

[fringe prism]

RIPPP

[sturdy knoll]

so

that wasnt an option icl

[fringe prism]

its embedded in the 1st one

[long garden]

isnt french like

dumb

[sturdy knoll]

sigh ig i’ll js do past problems

[long garden]

like it has a bunch of stupid rules

[sturdy knoll]

i started doing ts

[long garden]

or smth

[sturdy knoll]

i started from like

[little wraith]

yea

[long garden]

as in

[little wraith]

basically

[long garden]

the language might be like nice

[sturdy knoll]

the 2000 mavs

[stuck tartan]

oha ight

[sturdy knoll]

amc*

[long garden]

well english is lwk dumb too

[sturdy knoll]

yes

[fringe prism]

bruh its like easier to learn than like mandarin

[long garden]

no mandarin is eadsy

[inland totem]

how dare u

[fringe prism]

le passe simple ☠️

[long garden]

js memorize the characters

[fringe prism]

im not dissin gmadnarin

[sturdy knoll]

what year

do i do

[inland totem]

good

[long garden]

girl idk

js do them in genreal

[fringe prism]

do like 1854 amc 10 B

[sturdy knoll]

choose a random year from 2000 to present

[little wraith]

stop.

[long garden]

english: i dont have rules. i mean, i have rules. but i break all of them more often than i folow them

[fringe prism]

LOLLLLLL

[little wraith]

imparfait my baby

[sturdy knoll]

yo what is this

[inland totem]

do 1776 amc 10a

[long garden]

french: EVERYTHING NEEDS RULES

[little wraith]

passé composé as well

[sturdy knoll]

i js know futur simple

[fringe prism]

bruh passe compose = free

[inland totem]

rules for everything

[long garden]

and then spanish is like

[little wraith]

and futur proche right?

[fringe prism]

most cooked tense

[sturdy knoll]

then they went along and had a baby i believe

plus que parfait

[little wraith]

that’s easier than simple

[sturdy knoll]

yup

[little wraith]

EW

[inland totem]

o do twa

[little wraith]

I HATE PLUS QUE LATFAIT

[sturdy knoll]

my teacher says it’s not really a tense

[inland totem]

i know french

[sturdy knoll]

onb

[fringe prism]

MOI AUSSI

[sturdy knoll]

so guys 2002-present

choose a year

[little wraith]

C HORRIBLE

2012

[fringe prism]

bruh lol

[sturdy knoll]

i have truth tables

[inland totem]

truth tables are lowkey boring

[sturdy knoll]

all i need is smth to watxh now

[sturdy knoll]

nah cs made me hate them

my teacher bever taught them bever mentioned them and they pull up on a unit test

[inland totem]

they're easy to understand

it's the logical operations

[sturdy knoll]

yeah but i never knew what they were

my dad told me once in like 5th gr

i relied on my old ass memory on that test

[fringe prism]

LOL

[little wraith]

[daring sparrow]

buh

[ivory ember]

[barren anvil]

geometry honors

truth tables 🙂

[daring sparrow]

i remember i got the easy int down to [0, pi] 1/8 sin^2 u du

i forgor int of sin^2

it's int by parts right

what's the integral of sin^2

wait im dumb

[inland totem]

use reduction formulas

[daring sparrow]

ye

1/2 -1/2 cos2x right iirc

or sum

so [0, pi] 1/16 - 1/16 cos 2u du

[0, 2pi] 1/32 - 1/32 cos v dv

pi/16 by symmetry buhbuhbuh

[inland totem]

[little wraith]

hey

[daring sparrow]

wait

who solved the hard integral

i solved it

first try

no hints

hi

hard integral is like pretty easy after ||summation swap||

[daring sparrow]

i js did binary expansion

and guess

[stuck tartan]

binary expansion??

[daring sparrow]

ye

and then

like the digits appear half the time

so i got ||3/4||

hi rina

[brazen grotto]

i cant solve this math problem
a^2+b^2+c^2 = 42 then a,b,c equalc=?

[jaunty ginkgo]

any a,b,c ?

are they in real? integers? natural number?

[inland totem]

well there's infinitely many distinct solus but 8 integer solu

idk how you'd solve this other than plug and chug

[jaunty ginkgo]

no way there is only 1 integer solution

[inland totem]

hmmmm

idk

[brazen grotto]

integer

[jaunty ginkgo]

if a,b,c work then -a,b,c also work

or -a,-b,c

[brazen grotto]

ok

ok

[jaunty ginkgo]

hm

[inland totem]

so find positive a, b, and c first

the other 7 then are trivial

[brazen grotto]

i am out onpages

at google

[jaunty ginkgo]

yk

42 = 2 mod 4

any square number either 1 mod 4 or 0 mod 4

so (a,b,c) there are 1 even number and 2 odd numbers

that would lower possible cases you have to try

[little wraith]

hellorrr zelix

[fringe prism]

hallo friend

[brazen grotto]

i am in7th
so it would be in integer

[jaunty ginkgo]

there ain't many numbers to try

you know 1 of them is even

and a,b,c =<6

42-6^2=6 obv not

42-4^2=26

42-2^2=38

[little wraith]

i would just try it till it works

[fringe prism]

no integers work, so plug and chug would be pretty hard

[inland totem]

8 triplets work

[fringe prism]

i THINK

[little wraith]

plug and chug is my best friend in comps

[fringe prism]

o

[little wraith]

try each answer until one of them works

[fringe prism]

ral

real*

[inland totem]

when i have no choices left, i must

[inland totem]

i have no brain, and i must think

[jaunty ginkgo]

||26-1^2=25=5^2
26-3^2=17 ||

||38-1^2=37
38-3^2=29
38-5^2=13||

that's really fast

8 calculations

a chinese kid can do all of them in 30s /jk

[inland totem]

chinese kid 😔

ehhh it's not wrong

[brazen grotto]

we need super computer

[fringe prism]

bruh so real

[brazen grotto]

oh sry its not squars its cube

[inland totem]

[jaunty ginkgo]

blud

[inland totem]

i'm too tired for ts

holy shit

[jaunty ginkgo]

cube make it even easier

[inland totem]

yeah no no way that one could've been solved

[jaunty ginkgo]

4^3=64

so a,b,c < 4

[inland totem]

what if a is super huge, b is super huge, and c is super negative

cube of a negative is still negative

[jaunty ginkgo]

hmm

well

That would be a problem

[brazen grotto]

yea @inland totem

[inland totem]

there's no way to solve dis without computer help

imma just search it up 🥀

[brazen grotto]

@inland totem got solution?

[inland totem]

this was solved in 2019

a quick google search will tell u

[little wraith]

we can do a is 2 b is 1 and c is 6.08276

aka 4+1+37

[inland totem]

yea, but we need integer solutions

[little wraith]

or 42

[jaunty ginkgo]

it's 1,5 and 4

[brazen grotto]

omgg @inland totem

[little wraith]

oih it is

[jaunty ginkgo]

,calc 16+1+25

[inland totem]

hmm what

[gilded halo]

Result:

42

[little wraith]

mb 🥹

[jaunty ginkgo]

you can scroll up

I sent my sol

And approach

[brazen grotto]

One set of integer solutions for (a^{3}+b^{3}+c^{3}=42) is: (a=-80,538,738,812,075,974)(b=80,435,758,145,817,515)(c=12,602,123,297,335,631)

[gilded halo]

MEOW

[inland totem]

mhm

yeah it's a famous problem

requierd 1.3mil hours of computing time

so def not doable

[brazen grotto]

thx

byee

[jaunty ginkgo]

not yet, wait for me /jk

[inland totem]

i'll give u like 50 years

[brazen grotto]

i dont want

[jaunty ginkgo]

Nah, I only need 2

just kidding, I don't even like number theory

Imma just try and forget about it tomorrow

[fringe prism]

hi

[sturdy knoll]

yo

[thorny tusk]

number theory is fire tho

(its my best subject so like...)

it gets easier once u learn more

that because my puzzle rating is high so it more complicated

[little wraith]

it’s 11 pm and i’ve spent the past 45 minutes editing amc8 solutions honestly so much fun

[fringe prism]

LOLLL

[little wraith]

i am so bored

i’m not tired and for once i’m not skiing

[fringe prism]

bruh real

done with eveyrthing

besides studying for math

(meeting with calc bc teacher tmrw = cooked)

[little wraith]

me too i’ve even moved on to doing amc10 problems

i’ve edited all the amc8 one i even did some from 2013

[fringe prism]

do 12

[sturdy thicket]

No don’t

12 is so much different from 10 and 8

[little wraith]

i don’t think i’d get past problem 8

[fringe prism]

12 and 10 are pretty similar

[fringe prism]

its like bad after problem 15

[ivory jay]

they are similar but 10 and 8 are more similar

[sturdy thicket]

No 12 has different topics

[little wraith]

this is too much number theory

too much combi

i don’t like it

[fringe prism]

theyre like not even close

[ivory jay]

they were tho

this year

[fringe prism]

yes but in general no

like a question 20 on amc 8 is like question 7 on 10

[ivory jay]

idk i only did AMC 8 once

[fringe prism]

O

[ivory jay]

hoenstly AMC 10 was more easier for me so i just took that multiple times

[fringe prism]

real lol

[ivory jay]

did you do AMC in school?

[fringe prism]

yea, u cant take anywhere else(for us at least(

[ivory jay]

oh

[obtuse bloom]

does SAT count as competition math

[pallid dragon]

no

[obtuse bloom]

ok

[swift imp]

hell no.

[obtuse bloom]

what about ACT?

[swift imp]

the sat and act is just the default high school curriculum, so no it is not competitive on any level

[obtuse bloom]

i mean people in the Olympiads are usually under 20

so i thought I'd ask

[swift imp]

Yes people who do Olympiad math in the USA will probably take the sat or act like most high schoolers in the USA

[obtuse bloom]

ok

[swift imp]

just
if u can do well on olympiad math, you can definitely do well on the sat
the converse is not true

[fringe prism]

noo rip

[fringe prism]

LOLL

[little wraith]

hiii

[little wraith]

absolutely not

[gloomy tundra]

anyone have any good tips for hamilton olympaid?

[gloomy tundra]

[fringe prism]

hi

[little wraith]

wyd

[gloomy tundra]

if maybe spend around 6 hours a week from now until the day of the comp on march 20th I believe, should I be fine? I have my gcses as well just after the competition

very good mock grades in maths and further maths but very little experience of proof writing ^^

[verbal sand]

Hi

[little wraith]

i’d try for at least an hour ish a day if u can

[gloomy tundra]

i will try to fit it in

[rotund thunder]

proofs are the biggest jump so practice writing your arguments out clearly

[gloomy tundra]

I should practice writing proofs before jumping into any questions right

I tried fidgeting with some of the questions and found out I can do some of it but I have no idea how to write arguments and notations for the proofs to get the actual mark

[fringe prism]

im at school,

[little wraith]

dang

[spiral forum]

im not a beast but i was able to get top 25% in 2/3 i competed in last year
what i can say is for the week/weeks leading to the competiton immerse yourself in that problem-solving kinda mindest

so i'd solve a year's papers, then on my commute to school id watch someone solve the same year, that way im learning my corrections even though im not at my desk or sth

[cyan haven]

lowkey might ahve ot do that

i dmed you tho cuz i wanna fill u in a bit
