hi hi, a part of getting started on my project is to create an equation from a graph about an environmental issue. I can't figure it out though
here's the graph i'm supposed to work on
i can hover over the line and view the points specifically, but inputting them and trying to make an equation just isn't working
yep
the few lessons before were all about logarithmic, so i thought that might be it?
,w graph ln(x)
uhh
what is the ratio between 1970 and 1980?
and what is the ratio between 1990 and 2000?
like, the points ?
the ratio between the waste in 1980 and 1970
(1970 , 249 mil) and (1980 , 798 mil) ?
Result:
3.2048192771084
hmm
i hoped the ratio would stay constant
that does kind of change it
well anyways, a function that keeps increasing more
what types of that do you know
exponential ?
yes thats possible
but exponential curves have a constant ratio between them]
so if its 3.2 between 1970 and 1980 aand its 1.95 between 1990 and 2000 then it cant quite be exponential
so do you know any other lines that curve upwards
well quadratic but it cant be that
why not
the steps to this project are super broad, hold on a moment
do you think even an "average" of the rate of growth would be allowed ?
it's asking basically to predict outcomes
yeah it should be exponential
but the rate of growth should be constant
could you check some more ratios
yea im stumped
i think ill write an equation that basically predicts an outcome, not pinpoints it down to the decimal
because i really just need an idea of where this function will go if it continues
alright thank you
aaggghhhh
closer
one second i will do multiple linear regression

hi this is the first time posting
so i want to have three points
let's say you have point m and n
each of them has x and y coords
but i want to know what is the point in the line between them that has the same x coordinates as point u
it is not an equation to just plug in the x axis
its just two points and im connecting them
this will be used in a code
whoops i missread it
im sorry i thought im supposed to ping
midpoint formula, probably
do you know the x, y coordinates of u?
yes
well its not middle
you can construct the equation of the line connecting m and n and just plug the x coordinate of u into the line
can you tell us all the information
i am trying to render a cube
so the points of the cube are moving around alot
point m and n are just vertecies
i want to intercept them with the x coordinates of u
im sorry if this is vague but its such a weird problem never had to think about lol
well if its not the middle then youd have to be more clear about where you want it to be
cubes live in 3 dimensions
finding the point in the middle of 2 points in 2d or 3d space is pretty straightforward
what makes u position where it is
im not sure i follow
one second let me try to draw it
theres a thing called uh
perspective projection
but it may be overkill for what you need to know
hmm
id have to think its some kind of projection but im not sure, sorry
maybe i should have let @tacit arch take it 
lol its ok ive been scratching my head at this for quite a bit
the problem isn't even well formulated yet
lol my bad
i have very little to explain its a weird problem
ok actually here is another question i am not sure if this would make it better
what if you had four points
m and n
u and v
m is connected to n
and u is connected to v
is there a way to see where they intercept
considering that there is no set equation for the lines since they move constantly

Without lhopital
taylor
I am actually insanely smart

No taylor isnt allowed

-1+1
Split it into two limits? 🤔

Wont help, you gotta do it by +-1
Is there other way?
Ah yes the first thing that comes to sight
,w expand (1 + 5x)^3 - (x + 1)^2
now just evaluate at x=0
What did u even do, what is that
theres probably a more efficient way but 
Wow
riemann
wow how did you know that the numerator would have an x term, so the x on the bottom would cancel, and that the resulting limit wouldn't be 0/0?

I'm struggling for some reason with this question (this isn't homework btw, it's self-study). It seems to me that the "vision" of the ant is given at any point on the curve by the equation y - y_0 = -2(x- x_0). Plugging in the values we have for the top of the cell phone tower, we get y - 1100 = -2x. Solving for y, we get x=-550. Plugging that into the original equation to get the height, I get y= -301500 which is weird because the ants starts climbing at y=0. What have I done wrong?

nvm I have no idea what to do
Best to draw the scenario.
My instinct is this has something to do with angle of elevation.
I have it drawn out in my notebook, and I've translated this problem into "At which x does the tangent to f(x) intersect (0, 1100)
I have one point and a gradient (-2x) so I should be able to figure out the equation of the line but for some reason im really struggling with it
y - y_0 = m(x-x_0) Is the general equation for a line
plugging in the points I know
I get y - 1100 = -2(x-0)
But that leads nowhere

@zenith tide Has your question been resolved?
this is correct
you're getting your xs mixed up
Let's say that x' is the desired point, where you can just see the top of the cell phone tower.
If you're standing at x', what is y', your elevation?
(in terms of x')

I need help with what set is a feasible solution or not.
@leaden crater Has your question been resolved?
this might depend on the OR course but step 1 is rearranging the columns of A such that you can form a partition A=[N|B] where N is your non-basic variables, and B is a square matrix containing your basic variables
Thank you so much. i just figured it out after staring at it for an hour

Try being negative 
doesn't it have to work for all numbers positive and negative?
so if i lets say set n as 2 then if m is 1 that's false right
or is that not how I am supposed to do it
...there exists an integer n, such that for all integers m, n<m^2
You don't need all possible choices of n to be like that, just at least one
so if i satisfy just 1 n that satisfies the entire statement?
Picking n to be a[ny] strictly negative number should do it
it works
statement is true 😉

how do i solve this primitive throguh parts
state the integration by parts formula
Substitution then integral by parts
the problem is we can only use parts
Pretty sure that's what IV wants
i said integral when i really wanted to say primitive sorry
You can also directly do IBP
Let u=ln(x²+1)
Wtf is "primitive through parts"?
Are you trying to do $\int xln(x^2 +1)$?
dldh06
yes
That's still an integral
well we call them primitives in my language so sorry for the confusion
Also this u sub doesn't really help much
You can u sub to make it easier then do integral by parts
You can still u sub to make it easier
profs really like to handicap their students 💀
least sadistic uni prof
im just telling you state the integration by parts formula
I'm pretty sure that no where in the instructions states that you can't use u sub to make life easier
an usub makes your life slightly easier but it's not necessary
the question it self is more above but its in another language
so how would do this with sub then?
u=x^2 +1?
There's too many people now, I'm leaving. And @pliant oak Are you typing like an essay? Or trying to give the full solution because you shouldn't do that
u=ln(x²+1),dv=xdx
You just take v as the function of x²+1
Then you can directly do the integral by IBP
it's been 20 minutes and i just wanted the guy to give the integration by parts formula and it's not been given
it's important to drill the formula into your head so when you have something to ibp you can immediately recall the formula and identify the correct substitution
Integration by parts
thx
Abbreviation of Integral by parts
i know the formula
what i dont know is how to solve this particular itegral
well i wouldn't know, if you know the formula and can identify a substitution then you won't be needing help
so either you struggle with the formula or identifying the correct u/v, gotta cover both grounds 
so after the sub you should stay with just ln(x²+1) right?
it doesn't matter if you do the u-sub, you'll get the same answer, but you might find it slightly easier with the u-sub
∫udv=uv-∫vdu
Take the value of v as the function of (x²+1) to cancel the denominator then you can directly do ∫vdu
First you said u = ln(x^2 + 1) then v to be x^2 + 1?
this is the answer
No v≠x²+1 because d(x²+1)=2xdx≠xdx=dv
I got $xln(x^2 +1)-2x+2arctan(x)+C$
Sir
First post your work
I mean dv=xdx
Then Integral two sides to get v
This step is indeterminate Integral
So you can choose certain constant C to make v as the function of x²+1
@wary stream
IBP:∫udv=uv-∫vdu
I take u=ln(x²+1),dv=xdx
So ∫xln(x²+1)dx=∫udv
Then apply IBP
If what the problem required is "only" using IBP,take the value of v as the function of (x²+1)
Otherwise,using substitution then IBP is easier to understand
can you elaborate if you dont mind
In IBP
We first choose u and dv
I have chosen the right u and dv for you
You just find du and v precisely
but here u cant be either one can it?
What do you mean?
u=x? It doesn’t work,too
i mean i can use it but at least from what i know, i wont get very far and will just complicate it no?
oh nvm it works
i got it
thx giys

Hey
Would ab=-ba be equal vectors
Or opposite vectore
My teacher said opposite
But wouldnmt they also be equal?
What are a and b
AB (the vector starting at point A and ending at point B)
And -BA (the vector ending at point B and starting at point A)
are the same vector
the vector from a to b and the vector from b to a are opposites
if you put a - sign on one of them then they're the same vector, not opposite
The - is doing a lot of work here
better picture?
it wouldn't be the first time an answer key was wrong, alas
So would the andwer be “ab and ba are opposite vectors”
yep that's one valid pair

I get the answer C for this question, but on brainly it says the answer is D
im confused on how its not C, can someone explain?
I would say it's because D is completely random, minimizing the chance of any interference. In addition, it specifies to do each combo multiple times, while C doesn't specify that
but i thought that through randomization there could be repeats
which would jeopardize the experiment, no?
so there has to be a way to ensure that every combination happens
or is my logic wrong
idk
I'm interpreting it, not as "select a random combo each time," rather "go through the combos in a random order."
oh ok
so you mean that its best to randomize order of which the weights and gas are
so if it were chronological its not good
is that what youre saying?

lowkey confused aff
on how to multiply those?
It’s simplifying and multiplying i thhink
naw
Well you have to follow exponent laws
You do multiply the numerators together and denominators together, yes
ya im stuck on that. it gets confuding
$$a^b \cdot a^c = a^{b+c}$$
$$\frac{a^b}{a^c} = a^{b-c}$$
Umbraleviathan
one sec
was gonna add the divide one, thanks.
Sure
i got 84
Well yeah. You need still need to to multiply the rest of the factors
like the exponents?
Umbraleviathan
You still have to simplify that
an i add the exponenets?
Yeah, for factors whose bases are the same
i got 42wy^-4
$\frac{84w^6y^{-1}}{42wy^4}$
Umbraleviathan
Simplify this
i got 2w5y3
it was THAT easy?? wtf
@last ether
why my mom and teachers make it so complicated
Teaching math is hard
Yeah ... helping my classmates is also hard
Try explaining that you don't add all 4 numbers to do determinants
But then they end up doing division instead of some stupid shit
But easiest $20
LOL that was fuckijg hilarious
"<0,2> is a zero vector" and a bad mind is one way to lose 20

Yo im doing test corrections rn and one of the questions I think I’m doing incorrectly. The question gives me f f’ and f’’ and is asking for the critical values. I left it black because I was on a time crunch and didn’t know what a critical value was.
critical value are all the points in the domain of the original function where the derivative is 0 or does not exist, but it cant be an endpoint
So a critical point?
Wait does critical value mean something other than a critical point?
If it does then idk😎
That’s what I’m trying to figure out
Earlier it said find the critical points so I did
Now it says critical value and I’m confused
I don’t believe we ever went over a “critical value” just a critical point
Or I was just absent lol
Maybe they want the value of the function for the x coordinate?
I'm going to guess that
a critical value is an x such that
f(x) = y
where (x, y) gives the critical point
So would I be correct or
I have no idea
could you pull it up?
I’ve only ever seen critical value on the test
I only see references to critical points
No critical values
I asked during math help and they just said it was a critical number
Critical points is when f’(x) = 0 or is undefined
So…
1 and -1
For that equation
Yea?
Wait no
It would be when f’(x) is 0 not f’’(x) = 0
Wait

I think I’m confusing myself
It said critical values of f’’ for f’
Use f’’ to find critical values of f’
So you can basically remove one prime from each and it would be normal
Lol
Basically all I have to do is set double prime to 0
And solve
Which I did
Right?
I guess?

Let m be the smallest positive integer such that m^2+(m+1)^2+......(m+10)^2 is the square of a positive integer n. Find m and n
well calculate the sum first
^
i think he already did that from something he posted elsewhere
but did not share it here for whatever reason lol
Show your progress
I got upto 11(m²+10m+35)=n²
Couldn't get further
not sure if it helps but m^2 + 10m + 35 needs to be divisible by 11
so that should reduce your possible m's but not sure by how much or how much work that will take
i have no good tricks
Well, I found the answer with a calculator, but I also don't have a good trick.
chatgpt was not so helpful
11[(m+5)²+10] = n²
how do you get (m+5)² = 1 mod 11
without bruteforcing
(m+5-1)(m+5+1) = 0
Oh hey, that is a decent trick.
From there you can check like 4 or 5 values by hand until you find one which happens to be square.
But that is still not very satisfying
Much better than having to check well over a dozen though
oh yeah that's a thing 
i just mentally checked my way to m=5 and got lucky
||m=18|| was the solution I found. m=5 gives n^2 = 110, which is not a square.
yea i checked it with brute force and got the same (as omnipotententity)
oh that doesn't even work, that's only divisibility by 11 
yikes
divisibility by 11 is just a necessary condition
it works
okay so thats literally the first candidate
And 18 works. Nice. @subtle birch you still around?
How did you arrive at the 0,2 mod 3 and the 0,2 mod 4 constraint, btw?
,w Table[m^2 + 10m + 35 mod 4, {m, 0, 3}]
Oh cool, I don't think I would have seen that
you can try mod 5 too but since the coeffs are already multiples of 5 it doesnt do anything
i guess it's to make the bruteforce part less garbage if just checking mod11 didn't get a solution fast enough 🫠
Wait, thanks It actually helped
That means we have to check for values of n which are divisible by 11 like 11,22,33 so it narrows the search
hmm that's another way 

Yes
but longer than snow's method i imagine
22,33 won't make perfect squares
check for 11,44,99 and so on
Ik I mean we have to only search for numbers divisible by 11 so 77 is one
gonna add that's not rly what i was saying but still right and a good observation

ik k^2 is (n+1)(2n+1)/6 and k is n(n+1)/2
but what do i do with that -3
do you know a formula for sums of cubes?
something like that
does -3k^2 cound as ar^n-1
no
wait not -1
,w expand 1/4 ((k+1/2)^4 - (k-1/2)^4) - 1/8((k+1/2)^2 - (k-1/2)^2) - ((k+1/2)^3 - (k-1/2)^3)
so itll be k^3 - 3k^2
yes
no you'll need something like the sum of cubes formula
sounds totally off track :c
mmm

ms snow what are you doing
im reverse engineering the telescope


1 to 20 - 1 to 9 should work right?
im confused whats going on
Yea
rice is still hung up on sums of cubes i think
sum of cubes should be doable
,w expand 1/4 ((k+1/2)^4 - (k-1/2)^4) - 1/8((k+1/2)^2 - (k-1/2)^2)
so now you can sum
and the RHS telescopes
but like
if you just look up the sum of cubes formula
you can use these to piece together your sum
can i do something like n^2(n+1)^2/4 -3((n+1)(2n+1)/6)?
yes

idk what to do at all 😦
its like use summation formula
but how do i find the amount of terms cuz this is geometric
what is the general term of a geometric series
a_n = a_1(1-r^n) divided by 1-r
this is the sum
oh shoot
of the first n terms
54
2/81
1/3
yes
how do i simplify that tho
and findn
do i multiply both sides by 1/54
i mean multiply both sides by 1/54
= 54 + 54/3 + 54/3^2 + 54/3^3 + ... + 54/3^7
that gets rid of 54 in the right hand side
maybe write 81 as a power of 3 first
i meant to reply to this sorry
oh k
what
so ur left hand side is 2/81 right
??
lol sorry i keep replying to u
yes it is
can u write 81 as a power of 3
3^4
wdym
yes
now write 54 as a multiple of a power of 3
i feel like its not supposed to be this complicated
54 = 9 * 6 = 3 * 3 * 3 * 2 = 3^3 * 2
so when u multiply both sides by 1/54, u get 2/(81*54) = 2/(3^4 * 3^3 * 2)
the 2 cancels
and u get 1/(3^4 * 3^4) = 1/3^7
and this is what equals (1/3)^n-1 = 1/(3^n-1)
= 54 + 54/3 + 54/3^2 + 54/3^3 + ... + 54/3^7
= 54(1 + 1/3 + 1/3^2 + ... + 1/3^7)
= 54(3^7/3^7 + 3^6/3^7 + ... + 1/3^7)
= 54(3^7 + 3^6 + ... + 1)/3^7
Now the hard part is finding 3^7 + 3^6 + ... + 1
If you think its very painful to calculate this, then there is a formula to find it:
P + P^2 + P^3 + ... + P^n = (P^(n+1)-1)/P-1
3 + 3^2 + 3^3 + ... + 3^7 = (3^8-1)/3-1 = (6561-1)/2 = 3280
Putting it in:
= 54(3280)/3^7
= 177120/3^4
= 6560/3^4 = 6560/81

Hey, LP problem. I have solved problems without using a single subtraction, but now I have to deal with fixed, and variable costs. How do I start?
This is what I got right now, but I do not understand how I implement the aspect of costs, revenue, and profit.
thanks in advance
<@&286206848099549185>
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
Choosing to use book 1 you then have profit is 12000 * 1_{x_1>0}+(40-19) * x_1
hey
for 0<=x_1<=9000
right right
so what would the objective function be then, because usually its just 500x1 + 600x2 + 700x3 etc
but now i have to take into account that I have costs
And if i don't publish a book, i wouldnt have to pay the costs
You can write a function to be maximzed doing the same like here for the rest
thank you, isnt there some kind of bot who simplifies this into perspective
im not really used to typing out equations and functions and stuff haha
What?
Texit bot its called
because i dont fully understand the things you typed out for me
i just joined this server lol
$12000 \cdot \bf{1}_{x_1>0}+(40-19) \cdot x_1$
ahhhh
ScapeProf
i appreciate it!
so the objective function will then be that
and then +
and then the same, but for the other books right
yep

Can anyone please help me with this
can you use stirling’s formula?
+ looks like AM/GM might help, maybe? [edit: it doesn't]
I dont know that... so no i cant use it
wait I thought help 0 is where you're supposed to ask your question
That is what i did
Cause that limit is the geometric mean of something... It's just a thought atm, haven't yet validated, but then you could probably sandwich it
No it doesn't, I don't think
i think it easily goes off to inf by stirling
what about taking the log of the expression, you'll get (1/n) times the sum of log(1) through log(n), which sounds riemann sum-ish
hmm, scratch that, the spacing between the points doesn't shrink
you do something similar when proving stirling's formula
Hmm
Layla can you teach me
Whats stirling
Or rather give me a bit of hint
it’s an approximation (good enough to use for limits) for factorial that’s often more algebra friendly than a product of integers
but if you haven’t seen it i doubt you cn use it
Does it infers that the solution to this question would be https://goo.gl/search/Infinity
Infinity,
,w lim n to inf of (n!)^(1/n)
i already said that ms snow
i didnt 
Oh its good but cn any one suggest me an alternative method for this
maybe theres a bounding argument from below
alternate method 1
but what you can do is riemann sums
for the first term
and that diverges which is slightly 
but 
you can use that in some kind of bounding argument from below
maybe there’s something simple because the bound can be really terrible
and doesn’t need to be like stirling level powerful
🙏
Maybe try showing that no positive integer k is a bound for the sequence. For n > k , you have n! = [n(n-1)...(k+1)][k!] >= k^(n-k) k! = k^n (k! k^-k) = c k^n, where c depends on k but not on n. Therefore (n!)^(1/n) > c^(1/n) k. Now c^(1/n) -> 1, so the liminf of (n!)^(1/n) is greater than k
Mathematical induction?

Is there a Geometric intuitive proof of why Moment of Inertia about any axis that lie in the plane of square is equal
here is the definition of moment of inertia for proof
where Ri is just magnitude of radius vector from axis of rotation
and Mi is mass of the tiny part of square
The moment of inertia, otherwise known as the mass moment of inertia, angular mass, second moment of mass, or most accurately, rotational inertia, of a rigid body is a quantity that determines the torque needed for a desired angular acceleration about a rotational axis, akin to how mass determines the force needed for a desired acceleration. The...
this is literally a physics law lol
i dont think physicists like proofs
just write something half coherent and they will accept 🙂
Proof: mathematica said so should be fine
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
i am not a physicist ..i am a curious person who wants to know what kinda symmetry in math leads to this property of square's moment of inertia ..which is also just a formula you know ...i don't see any physics here
i dont see moment of inertia here are you trolling ??
no im not
look if you dont know the answer stop trolling me and wasting my time

when ur friend started comparing mathematician vs physict
I mean you can try the physics server

Hello, got an LP problem in Excel: I want to solve it, but I'm having trouble with calculating the Total fixed cost per book, i'd like it to be matching the fixed cost (since its fixed) IF the amount of books that are being produced is greater than 0 (because then I would have to produce the books, which will result in fixed cost) Could someone tell me which function I have to use for this, and or/if I'm doing it al wrong.
this is the problem
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> a
@alpine sable I believe what you are looking for is =IF(Cond, IfTrue, IfFalse).
hey
alright
so
id like it to be
If the amount of the books produced is > 0, then i want the fixed cost to display in this cell, if its not > 0, then id like it to stay 0
is that possible?
Almost anything is possible in Excell. What you are looking for is an If statement.
For your example, Cond would be D5=0, IfTrue would be 0, and IfFalse would be 12000.
=IF(D5=0,0,12000).
Try this, and play with the various values to understand what it does.
Well, might be better to use the cell D11 rather than hard coding in 12000.
That's good.
i hope so lmao
I always recommend looking up Excel functions.
No problem!
Thanks!

I need help on this missed school for 2 weeks from being sick 
The angle of a line is 180, and if you cross two lines the angle is the same on opposite sides
Pretty much all you need to know to solve the problem, not exactly sure of the names for the properties though

Anyone that can help me get in the right direction?
well assume it has a cycle {x1, x2} of length 2
then x1 R x2 and x2 R x1
why does that not work
is it just me or is that definition missing something? Or am I reading it weird.
if and only if xi R x(i+1) what?
Then they would be the same? If x1 >= x2 and x2 >= x1?
No idea, this is the only text included in this question.
xi R x(i+1) means xi and x(i+1) are related. because R is supposed to be a partial order you could equivalently write xi <= x(i+1)
yes
but they are supposed to be distinct to actually form a cycle. so that can't work
Ah, I was reading that as a coset notation haha
If x1 <= x2 and x2 <= x1, would they always have to be the same, isnt a back and forth path possible?
Just trying to imagine it in my head.
remember the definition of a partial order
Oh so with the antisymmetric, if (a,b) and (b,a), a must be b, is that what you are referring to?
Yeah I get it, if its a partial order, this isnt possible that (a,b) and (b,a) and a and b are distinct.
otherwise it wouldnt be a partial order
yes

Hello. I have this question
whats 2+2
xd
Don't troll people's help
I translated the question
This just provided some information
But the question is
If f(x) = x^3 - 3x^2 then f(1/2021) + f(2/2021) + ... + f(4040/2021) + f(4041/2021) =
Now I know how to find the answer, it's pretty simple
2022/2021 = 2 - 2020/2021 and so on till 4041/2021 and then we can simply tell f(x) = -f(2-x)-4
So most of the terms cancel out leaving us with f(2021/2021) - 4 - 4 - 4 ... - 4 = -2 - 4(2020) = -2 - 8080 = -8082
But that's not my question
My question is whether the information given here can be used somehow to solve this question
I feel like if it's symmetrical at a point then somehow its possible to know which terms can cancel out
Sorry for making it long
<@&286206848099549185>
Your second derivative will give you your intelection point 2
That's how you find that x=2 is your symmetry point and deduce that most points will cancel

I dont even know how to start this one
but theres still 2 unknowns?
try to work a bit more
you get a² log(b) =0
so either a=0
or log(b)=0
but can a=0?
so b = 1?
Awesome
just wondering
Is there any way I could solve this buy using the graph
cause they dont usually give me a graph
so I assumed I would need it
no
you need information about the value of the function
yeye but to help
either a graph
like is there a different method
or something that tells you some values
like theres not info in just this
not enough*

Hello, a weird question but
what is it
Hello wasn't done typing hit enter by accident, it's like a whole paragraph so give me a sec
There's a character in League of Legends whos ability scales off attack speed, meaning that the cooldown of the ability gets lower as the attack speed gets higher.
The cooldown of the ability starts at 4 seconds and the lowest possible is 1.33 seconds 66% reduction.
The lowest cooldown is achieved at 114 attack speed.
who's that
I want to know if you could graph the relationship between attack speed and cooldown reduction
yasuo
We would need to know if the relation is linear
Or perhaps related in any other way
I would guess linear, but no guarantee yet
I believe the the equation for cooldown reduction is x/1.72 = y where x is attack speed and y is cooldown reduction
What is the initial attack speed?
Attack speed is referring to bonus attack speed in the equation so it would be 0
