can somebody spoonfeed my little monkey brain as to how
2pi(5)^2 + pi(5 * sqrt74) combines into 5pi(10 + sqrt74)
i dont know where the 5pi came from or the 10
i could see 5pi happening if the square applied to the whole of 2pi(5) because 2 squared is 4 but doesnt the square only go to the radius
I mean, by factoring out 5pi

ok what did you try?
but when n=2, it doesn't work, so I'm not sure if the problem is correct
oh nvm

at this point I think they are purposely ignoring u bro
I mean isn't kinda obvious
If Co has a lower value, it means that the decibel at that given time is also lower
That is because that Co a constant and that is something like a background noise that is accounted in the experimental data
I'm not really sure, I'm just guessing based on the graph

Halp! How do I do the X-intercept here
This isn't from a test btw, just a reviewer
quadratic formula or factorisation
ideally you'd want to first rearrange your equation into general form
@whole cargo Has your question been resolved?
Factoring didn't work, unless I was just dumb again. Is this correct bro?

it looks to me you tried to change the formula to account for the negative coefficient of x and made a mistake because of it
dont do that
or just factorize $x^2 - 5x + 6 = (x-3)(x-2)$
nebula40
or use b = 5, a = -1 and c = -6 here

I'm not really understanding our induction step for this.
I see how he manipulates that ak+1 = 2^k(2)
but that doesn't actually make sense and I think I'm missing something
I also don't get why it's alternating an equality and inequality

PROBABILITY
At a hockey game, Canada and the opposite team
Ck = ( Canada scores exactly k goals )
Aj = (opposite team scores exactly j goals)
They added some formulas to help with the working
a) find P(E) = ( games end in a tie ) or the probability both teams score the exact same amount of goals so k=j>=0
DONE
b) Bn = ( Canada has n goals or more ) in fonction of Ck, k>=0. Show that P(Bn) = 1/2^n
NEED HELP
c) with a property show that C = ( Canada scored an infinite amount of goals ) = 0
DONE
d) find P(M) = (Canada has scored more goals than the opposite team ) or Canada won

Hi!
I've a volume : 3000x3000x3000.
Inside it, multiple cubes with size 1x1x1 and with known positions.
I want to render it with a "camera" position (x,y,z). I start to render the furthest points and then the closest to the camera.
The problem is that I cannot store every cube in a list and then order it by distance because of memory limits.
I think I can solve my problem by rendering every cubes at a distance D, and then at a distance d-1, and then d-2, etc.
But... What are the coordinates of every points at a distance D from my camera (x,y,z) ? Or... Is there another solution ?
At the time, I just indexed every cubes at a distance D, and then D-1, and then D-2, etc by looping on every cubes and calculating their distance... Not the most optimised way to do it...
@sharp moon Has your question been resolved?
is this a programming question? what do you mean by "render"?
i think trying to get all the points at a D distance is also pretty expensive
is there a camera angle or something like that?
yep
but I think it doesn't change anything but which visible cubes may be rendered
For example (that's not what I want to render) : what are the coordinates of these points ?
given the middle of the sphere, its radius and the cubes size
i think this is a programming question
you said you have all coordinates of the cubes right?
just store them in a hash map
with D -> point

Can someone help me find the derivative of sec^2(x)
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
Why is the chain rule applied?
Ahhh ok
then d/dx f(g(x)) = f'(g(x))g'(x)
,w 2tan(x)sec^2(x) alternate forms
doesnt look like it
yeah shoot
derivative of tan(x) = sec^2(x) right?
So then I just need the derivative of sec^2(x)
- the other part but I got that one
Are you ask strong as the team fortress guy in your PFP?
hhahah i do my best
yeah @simple cave you got it right
are you still stuck anywhere?
@plain flamewelll yea, the problem is idk how to end up with 2tan(x) sec^2(x)
for the derivative of sec^2(x)
chain rule
power chain rule
dont overthink it
and found derivative of that
you dont need any identities
then how does sec become tan?
Like, when you apply the chain and power rule how does it convert sec into tan?
yes

how would you go about this?
Simplify the RHS into 1 matrix then compare each entry
simplify as in add them together ignoring the a and b for now?
uh how would you do that?
You multiply each entry by a
so like 1a,3a,1a ...
If you're clever you'll instantly deduce from row 1 and 3 that b = -5

why is this wrong?
the answer listed is -2-sqrt3
i would like some help on where i went wrong and what i can look to do in the future
BRUHHH
NO WAY
i didnt even seee my own dummy mistake
would the denominator remain 1-sqrt3 or would it bee (1-sqrt3)(1+sqrt3)
@minor needle
it would be (1-sqrt3)(1-sqrt3) = (1-sqrt3)^2
and this iss beecause we multiply both top and bottom by 1-sqrt3 correct?
correct
and now evaluate correct?
yes and simplify
u can simplify it further, take out (-1) then multiply by conjugate again
basically rationalizing the denominator
alright got it
but now im confused at the end
i still have the -1 outside of the bracket
will i have to multiply it into the whole thing or just the first term
sending pic now
@minor needle
so i leave the negative 1 outside
and just take away the brakets?
i dont have to multiply it into 2-sqrt3 ?
making it -2+sqrt3
the - doesnt become a + ?
Modus

you can put "-" wherever you want

-5,-9
@raw grotto
am i wrong
Yes
See blue is right
Just move each blue point right 2 down 4
And trace those points
so i didnt need to rotate?
yea i rotated from the blue point thats what i got from it
Why you rotating blue points
Oh i didnt read first image
Yes
when i do it to the -9
i get
-13
im confused
thinking i went to high
and my calculations are wrong
@raw grotto
am i right on that?
ok
thank you
for your help kevin durant

my final coords are

hi
There is a king in the hand or there is an ace in the hand, or both. There is a queen in the hand or there is an ace in the hand, or both.
If only one of these assumptions can be true, which is more likely to be in the hand: the king or the ace?
depends on which one has a higher probability
if the second one has 0% probability, and from the first one, if king and ace have the same probability, 50%
otherwise, ace has higher probability
ik its the king bc he explained it a long time ago
i just dont know how
it's just this question straight up nothing more
i don't believe king has higher probability
conceptually it's because only one is true means the other one is false (and I mean that's why the king is more likely)
what? it is like
basically it says that P(1 and 2) =0 right?
no its like
(KvA)
(QvA)
but the thing says
(KvA)⊕(QvA)
because v is or inclusive which could be both
⊕ is exclusive where it is either or
so in either hand u can have an ace
its just not asking abt the queen
theres only one hand no?
like the probability of both (KvA) and (QvA) happening at the same time?
yes but you dont know which is
the hand could either be (KvA) or (QvA)
(KvA)⊕(QvA)
or their intersection is empty
yeah, as others said, the probability of picking an ace is 0
(I was wrong initially)
that doesnt make sense tho
because it could be a king OR an ace, or both
both implies you could have both
or just ace
even if just one of the assertions was true
yeah but it said only one of the assertions is true
which means the other assertion is false
P((KuA)n(QuA))=0 given only one can be true
yes so lets say the first one is
you can still get an ace in the first assertion
KvA is or inclusive
no, because assertion B is false, so ace cannot be drawn
but A is included(KuA)n(QuA)
what is telling u assertion b is false
even if it is false then the true assertion is: there is either a king in the hand or an ace or both
if assertion a is true, assertion b is false, from the problem's condition
yes but how do u know assertion a is true it says nothing about that though
that's a true assertion yes, but from b's falseness, ace cannot be drawn
they're independent assertions
because you said so
because of what youre sayign
like if you had to literally explain why the king, why
but you could possibly draw an ace
because king can be chosen, but ace cannot be chosen ever
the second assertion has nothing to do with the first one
theyre just two proposed ones
i know, but the problem states that ONLY one of the assertion can be true
yes exactly
meaning if assertion B is true, assertion A is false
so in the assertion 2 (QvA) is false, erase it entirely
so
ONLY FROM
- There is a king in the hand or an ace, or both
why king?
ok, let's forget all that and just focus on one thing
if assertion A is false, what does that mean?
yeah, but let's forget about B too
let's focus on assertion A, and try to understand what assertion A is false means
yeah, formulas are nice but understanding conceptually is easier
A included in (...)
in your formula what does A represent
bc in class A represents concusions
(sigma|A) premises|conclusion
yeah right
as i said
it is
which is like
but the other way around
A ⊃(KvA) meaning Ace, then K or A
this is a logic course
even though those are somewhat related
so the symbols ive been using is logical connectives and stuff
⊃ --- then
≡ --- iff
ok so lets write a logic proof then
@hexed hawk we know what "assertion A is true" means: King or Ace or both are in the hand. can you just state what "assertion A is false" means?
that will make things much easier to understand
Assertion A is false would mean that in that scenario there isnt a king in hand or an ace in hand
right
so if B is true, it means A is false, thus "there isnt a king in hand or an ace in hand" right?
there are only two cases, A true and B false, and A false and B true
we just took one case
don't look at the formula. think about it conceptually. it's REALLY EASY
why is there a scenario with two aces
ok i give up
conceptually is good to start w
yeah, then stop looking at the formula and stick with me for 5 minutes
the first line corresponds to "KvA and QvA cant happen both at the same time"
but yeah try following
otherwise, i'll mute this channel and see other channels thx
the conceptual part
kkkkkkk
i thought formula could help since you were stubborn with your way of seeing things
it's hard not to be stubborn if it is just stated and not explained if that makes sense
smh rules of logic is shaking its head antiguerrilla
LMFAO IT AUTOCORRECTED astaghfirullah to antiguerrilla
yes but like... explain why no ace
yeah
let me get to it
so lets do the first case
then we'll do the second case
assume 1) is true and 2) is false
so we know
KvA is true
yuh
QvA is false
but since QvA is false
that means
Q and A are false
since if one of the 2 were true
QvA would be true
So, why does the falsehood of A in the second assertion leak into the first assertion
i got everything else but this
and then QvA being true if u just said its not
its a justification
to say Q and A are false
because if Q is true, QvA is true which as you said its not
so Q is false
and same reasonning with A
but can we not assume that one is true over the other, because initially u start out not knowing
bc we are doing hypotheticals that one is true and the other is not rn
which only one is true
wdym? about Q and A?
but why do we start off choosing a wrong one
we do both cases
we dont know
then like
but we do both cases
first we imagine that one is true and not the other, we draw conclusions
and then we imagine the opposite and we draw conclusions
and since we drew the same conclusion in both cases
that means whichever it is
if KvA is true, isnt it an equal chance?
the conclusions still hold
if you only knew that yeas
but we also know that if KvA is true
QvA is false
right?
- If we assume QvA is true, then its more likely to be the queen
because then the falsified assertion cancels out the ace
whcih doesnt make sense to me
but yall both said that
bc it doesnt say that components of one assertion is canceled out by the falseness of it in another one
- If we assume KvA is true, then its more likely to be the king.
- If we assume QvA is true, then its more likely to be the queen
wdym?
in your guys' logic bc u keep saying ace is impossible but not why
since i started explaning after the formulas i didnt state once Ace is impossible
aii then go and say when ure done lol
you say im not explaninig
recap rq
we dont know which of KvA and QvA is true
so we do two cases
one where KvA is true and Qva is false
and after that
we do the case where KvA is false and QvA is true
right?
so lets do the first case
we know given this that QvA is false
so if you apply negation
Not(QvA) is true
so (not(Q) and not(A) )is true by distributing the not
and then this means not(A) is true
which is the same as A is false
so in the first case we arrived to A is false
IN THIS CASE, did something bother you?
next i'll do the other case
so int this case: the falseness of A in (QvA) translates to the falseness of A in (KvA)?
oooh so thats your issue
theres a reason why A is the same variable in both assertions
we wrote it like this because its the same thing
if i write 2=3-1 and 2 = sqrt(4)
those are the same
and indeed
u right u right
but like is there is a reason that they are the same variable and influence eachother, or just the nature of the question
its just how we interpreted what was said
A is ="there is a ace in the hand"
if you want an assertion that can be true or false
and indeed KvA is "there is an ace or a king in the hand"
"there is an ace or a king in the hand" = "there is a ace in the hand" or "there is a king in the hand"
"there is an ace or a queen in the hand" = "there is an ace in the hand" or "there is a queen in the hand"
so yeah they're the same
but we didnt even need it
to prove A is false
why so
where did i use it?
for this
like we don't need that info to prove A is false, so what do we use
re read this part, i only talk about QvA
Then in the case of KvA being true, because ~A in (QvA), it also made the A in KvA false.... for some reason bc theyre the same varibale
that is my understanding
yeah thats also true
its not for some reason,
we need to redo the set up i think
lets call A = "there is a ace in the hand"
its an assertion
that is either true or false
the same with K and king, Q and queen
or is it like
like what?
if we represent the entire thing like this
(KvA)⊕(QvA)
then have the case of (KvA) being correct
then it could be changed to
(KvA)&(~Q&~A)
nvm
that doesnt make sense
so given this setup
we can interpret the two things said
as KvA
and QvA
notice these two talk about the same A
and if you have a problem with that it should be dealt with right at the beginning
even though here there are none
none what
by calling the two variables different
no problems
since theyre not, they must be categorized as the same
what are they not?
but this whole issue i think is very weird
because you have no problem writing this
where you use the supposedly two different As
in the same expression
with the same notation
bc the question is sentences in my head LOLLL
yeah this is why we do maths, to calm things down put it on paper
and have tools to think about things and hopefully get less confused
can you understand the formal proof i gave?
ok ok so we have that written above, same A
or the first case proof?
this?
yep
line 1: (king or ace) and (queen or ace) = false....... line 2: (king and ace) or (queen and ace) or (ace and king) or (ace and ace) = false this im like ??????????????...................line 3: not(King and Queen) and not(queen and ace) and not(king and ace) and not(ace)=true.................. not(ace) is true.... (ace) is false
negation
ah ok ok
i know what it all says
understand no connection nor implication
besides for line 1
wdym?
ace or ace is 100% false bc thats not even an option
but then u have two scenarios of king/ace
this is a formal proof
ik that
when writing it you should not think about what each line means
but if the formal rules of logic are respected
and if so,
how are you supposed to do this exercise then?
even what i used in my case by case proof is the same kind of thing
you need to know how to manipulate logic expressions
and also even with the (KvA)⊕(QvA) that represents the scenario i have no idea how to get from that to answer... esp derivations
trying to understand thts why i put it in the chat
no but there are two different things,
understanding whats happening in this specific case
this feels like circles around what an answer would be tho
which can be hard if you think of it the wrong way at first
and theres also, knowing what you are allowed to do with logic assertions
and what you are not
and why
but your proof
why would u put the scenario of (ace and ace) together
bc thats not a situation presented by the question
like if u were to write out your answer to the question entirely, conceptually and formula wise... how would u do it
maybe we work backwards from that
i have like the modus tollens and substitution rules in mind
isnt meant to be understood conceptually
but just a game on rules of logic
to get to the answer
or i would do a conceptual proof by doing the two cases
son just smart like dattt
but again why (ace and ace)?
theres no why
mood
applying a rule?
that you can distribute
wouldnt it be like
(~A^A)
like (A or B) and (C or D) <=> (A and C) or (A and D) or (B and C) or (B and D)
and doing this
i arrive to line 2
like its the same if i had
a(2x+b)=3
so is this for the entire question or one scenario of a specific assertion being assumed true
this is the entire question
crazy to me how logical proofs is not meant to be understood conceptually lololol
it is
but once you understood that the basic rules are true
you can carry on calculations
and be assured that they are true
without caring about what they mean
and thats why they are useful
because you can abstract yourself
ah okok
transform the conceptual problem
into a maths problem with a set of rules
which is supposedly easier to deal with
since you know the rules
basically it says that x =False is the same as not(x)
line 2 to 3 is the definition of Not i guess
but which rule would back that up
modus tollens, negation intro, disjunctive syllogism, DeM, Definition of a Conditional?
basically its not written in here because the way of writing logic assumed here
doesnt allow for x=False
instead we just say not X
whats x
x is any statement
i mean rn rn
oh x is
like formally i shouldnt be writing
something = False
but rather
Not(something)
i dont get what this means tho bc it doesnt make sense in my head compared to the word problem
its a logic statement
so how would u properly write it out then
where does A^A come from
did u mean (Q^A)?
i'm writing it all wait a bit
okie dokey!
yeah right
isnt exclusive or this?
let me finish please
if you apply double negation to this
Not[ Not [(A and Not(B)) or (Not(A) and B)]]
we apply morgans law on the first
let me write it 2 sec its too hard on keyboard
i'm trying to explain to you the definition i used for exclusive or
because you seemed to not accept it
basically what it says is
A XOR B is :
(brb oneee sec)
not (A and B) and not (not(A) and not(B))
which is the same as not [ (A and B) or (not(A) and not(B)) by morgans law
then not [(A and B) or not(A or B))] still by morgans law
Exclusive or or exclusive disjunction is a logical operation that is true if and only if its arguments differ (one is true, the other is false).It is symbolized by the prefix operator J and by the infix operators XOR ( or ), EOR, EXOR, ⊻, ⩒, ⩛, ⊕,
↮
{\displaystyle \nleftrightarrow }
, and ≢. The negation...
w/e just read this, my definition is the same as 4th one
there are many ways to write exclusive or
im so confused what youre talking abt rn lmfao what other way did u say it
simpliest definition
P or Q, not both
overall, that is what it is right
so conjunction elimnation is for the second most line to the third?
yeah
period
so this entire proof just says
proves
~A, as in an ace wouldnt be more probable than a king
yeah
because probability of ace is 0%
ok ok ok i can understand more from seeing the rules
it's not 0%. it's an impossible event. 0% is not totally impossible
you can do a conceptual reasoning
yeah but thats enough
they ask which is more probable
have u been watching this process the whole time? 😮
patience
ok ok ok ok
i understand now thank you
i dont think its time to introduce probabilities nuances
logic is enough
but the other proof of case by case is actually more insightful
for understanding whats actually happening
not really. muted for 15 minutes and it popped up. you guys are so patient lol
the one i did is more useful to learn how to manipulate assertions
i was gonna say damn
that has the substitution rules and inference rules
?
if you have the want or time
what do u think about this problem
I think the professor said 3 cards. Obviously you need to flip 5 and 2, because if they have anything other than a letter before M it violates the rule. But what is the third card and why?
I would say X and Z are irrelevant bc the rule says only what a number less than or equal to 5 must correspond w?
noidea
the wason selection test is usually 4 cards soooo tf
ok ok ok
A(c) = " card c has a number less or equal to 5 on one side"
B(c) = " card c has a letter that comes before M in the alphabet"
then how does the quoted sentence translates
in terms of A and B?
i have no idea
there is no if then tho
yeah
Rule: Card with a number less than or equal to 5, has a letter coming before M on the alphabet on the other side
then
A=>B i could see
ok
wats the A(c) the c in this
