not too terribly bad because the top and bottom are only binomials aswell
just be careful with sign errors and stuff

How would you prove that there's no vector in the set {v1, ..., vk} in R^n (each vector is different) that does not have only 1 linear combinations?
There's also a vector w that have infinite linear combinations of v1, ..., vk.
I was thinking on proving by contradiction, and try to show that a vector 'u' have only one combination and get to a contradiction.
I'm not sure how to approach it tho, is there a nicer way to prove it?

I'm so confused about this.
If i have more questions can i still send them here? 😭 Very confused year one
I think A&D are right
Nope, D is wrong
You can simply recall that generally
[
\emptyset \cap A = \emptyset
]
idk how this is in the homework
A Lonely Bean
This is better
Sure
A∩B is the set containing all elements from A and B, right?
So those elements have to satisfy the conditions |x - 1| <= 2 and |x| >= 1 simultaneously
Yeah A∩B = {-1}U[1, 3]
Formally or informally speaking?
Infinity is not a number thus you can not compare it to other numbers
Finding B∩C is equivalent to solving the system of equations |x| >= 1 and |x + 2| < 3
If |x| >= 1, then x >= 1 or x <= -1
im alright with that so far i think
Do you want me to continue or?
Okay, so we have x <= -1 and |x + 2| < 3
We can rewrite |x + 2| < 3 as -5 < x < 1
And simply find the intersection of the intervals (-inf, -1] and (-5, 1)
That is (-5, -1]
So the second answer is 4
Alright
are the next ones 1&2?
Yes

tex:
no one can read that lmao
$I = \int_{0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{1+x^{\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}^{\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}}}} dx$
is that what u meant @cosmic niche?

I think he meant
[
I = \int_0^\infty(\frac1{1+x^\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2}})^\frac{1+\sqrt5}{2} dx

A Lonely Bean
Yup
yes

Hello, I don't know where I should post my problem. It's more a physic problem (second quantization) but I am stuck on a math issue ! (It is about topological insulator)
Should I post it here anyway?
Okay perfect !
Well unfortunately, on the physics server I did not know pings were not allowed. And today I pinged someone who helped me yesterday and in the ping message I told him that I was sorry about the ping because I know how annoying they can be, but in case he did not see my message I wanted to make sure he did.
Unfortunately the moderator was not happy about my first ping and banned me for a day ^^'
anyway, I will post my issue here if it's okay 😄
So, I am trying to reproduce simulations from an article in which they use the following tight binding model :
And, from this Hamiltonian written in k-space I need to find the diffrents parameters of the system (such as the hopping parameter, the on site term etc)
In order to do that, I need to perform a Fourier Transform of the Hamiltonian.
But, from this expression I have no idea how to start it...
Usually, when the hamiltonian is expressed with the annihilation and creation operators I get how to perform the Fourier Transform, but here I don't see it..
So, first I've expressed the vector v in term of $z_{\downarrow}, z_{\uparrow}$ and its conjugate but I don't know if it's relevant
Valentiiin
sounds research level, maybe ask in #odes-and-pdes or one of the advanced channels too
It is indeed
Okay I will look there ! Thank you very much for your kindness 😄

Hey, so how can I visualize partial derivatives in 4D, for a function like f(x, y, z)? My book shows the following diagram for a function that looks like (see image attached) for a function f(x, y), and mentions a partial derivative "is the slope of the tangent line to trace curves through the graph."
In 4D however, we don't have trace curves, we have trace surfaces (iirc). How would the concept of a slope work in this case? Or is it even possible to visually understand this?

Hi everyone , I have a question on SVD , question follows:
given this, which is false
It was explained that the following would be true
$| det(A) | = \Pi_{i=1}^{n}\sigma_{i}$
barış
- can someone explain to me exactly why that is
- Wouldnt it also be true that:
$det(A) = \prod_{i=1}^{n} \sigma_{i}^2$
\prod not \Pi
and where are you getting it from that det(A) should be the product of sigma_i^2??
thank you , is there a semantic difference ?
arent the singularvalues the squareroots of the eigenvalues of a matrix
and the det(A) is the product of the eigenvalues
if A is rectangular it does not have a det
thats new to me
But do you understand why I wrote the 2. thing ?
and more importantly do you agree ?
Sorry I forgot that A is given as a square matrix in this case
barış
no, i don't think the sigmas are square roots of the eigenvalues
they are the eigenvalues themselves, surely
but the text says that doesnt it ?
oh wait I cant read
my bad
the singular values for A are the square roots of the eigenvalues for AA^T and A^T A, thats correct right ?
sounds like it...?
I am sorry for asking stupid questions
I am just not that skilled in linear algebra yet
and a bit slow
Thank you for answering my second question. If someone can help me understand the first one I'd really appreciate it a lot

yup
okay
calculate the triangles' area
and then take that away from the area of the rectangle
ur not supposed to be giving answers to begin with
60?
this isn't "answer hw for them"
?
explain to them HOW to do it by guiding them and letting them think about the problem
Why interfere like the pesky US of A
if triangle is 60
Yea
which triangle ru calculating?
the big
200 -42.5
what's worse is that this isn't even correct
--> 157.5 cm2
huh
you're here to explain the logic and guide them, not burst in spitting out answers
pls correct urself first
we all have been clueless abt smth
thats wrong
If you interfer continuusly i might nuke your house
and ur not even giving a correct answer
so confusing
<@&268886789983436800>
i don't have time for this
<@&268886789983436800>
I'm answering right
wrong
40+12.5≠42.5
Dude. what moderators.
the answer is 147.5 cm^2
but u literally sped thru it when raj clearly has 0 idea what ur doing
@sly snow this server is not for you to verify your ego by showing off how much math you know
this server is for other people to get mathematics help
rudely pasting answers without trying to help people goes against the purpose of the server
take a chill pill and come back tomorrow
yes thats right
@short trail if ur still willing i can go thru it
or someone else here
can do it if they want to
triangle AED?
In these kinds of problems, it can often be easier to find the whole shape then subtract the unshaded areas, do you see how this concept applies here?
the large triangle is 10*8/2
isnt that since 5x5 is 20. the triangle is half
that's not 60
for Triangle AED, identify which side is the base and which is the height
oh ok
can you see which is which?
(base * height)/2
the other triangle would be (5*5)/2 since both the base and height are 5
ah wait
i have a question
ru calculating the big SHADED triangle
or the big UNSHADED triangle
big shaded
if ur doing that then yes it's 60
maybe writing like triangle AED will help more
giving the answer to be...
147.5
yep
there are 2 obvious ways of doing it
have a nice day
one way is your way
the other is to taking the area of the entire rectangle
so 10*20
and subtract the unshaded triangles
8*10/2=40
5*5/2=25/2
200-40-25/2
?
it's just the same formula
all triangles share the same area formula
regardless if they are right triangles or not

having some trouble on question 2 ( i dont know what the lines on top of the sides neither do i know what 6 is
@lavish pier Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
yea?
parallelogram, huh
im confused what 2 and 6 are
i dont know what cpctc is
nor do i know why they did ab dc ad bc
does it mean the sides are parallel ive never seen a notation like it
so are they saying ab is congurent to dc>
no we just need to prove that the diagonals bisect eachother
theyve done that already
oohh
im just confused on the working out
like the reasoning for 2 and 6
what do they mean
ok i know what cpctc means know
wait give me a sec
coul;d u help me with two though?
what is that notations on 2
definition of a parallogramm
whats the part before that though
theres line on top and its listing sides
im guessing that means parallel
but i just ant to be sure ive never seen anythiong like it in maths
yea i have a lot of ideas
if one pair of opposite sides are both congruent and parallel
im talking about question two rn @alpine sable
wha-
lines on the top means the side beetween two points
X || Y means X and Y are parallel.
yes
how do i prove a paralleogram with a right angle is a rectangle
in a paralleogram:
- the opposite angles are the same
- adjacent angles sum up to 180
so if on angle is 90 -> all angles are 90.
ah okay
so i dont need to draw a diagram or anything like that with proving it
@exotic belfry
that depends. if someone accepts the arguments 1. and 2. then you do not need. if someone (eg. teacher) asks you to explain 1 and/or 2 then you maybe need to draw a diagram.
how would i explain it with a diagram and sides with proper reasoning
my teacher is a bit draconic
its a little bit difficult for me to argue against questions someone maybe would ask if I do not know this person or the type of questions.
thats fine
the opposite angles are the same: like 3 in your example.

whats next math wizards
,rotate
the next step is to scrap all this and simplify the function itself prior to differentiating it.
at least that is what i would have done
i wanted to do this
but after asking before
i was told you cant manipulate fractions unless it only has product
on num and denom
who told you this and what were their exact words
think her name was ann
with horns
i dont remember
someone did though
for example
this you cant simplify

so, what was it that i said
if you're going to make claims about what i said, you had better make sure you can prove you are not twisting my words

like i did
yesterday
anyway someone else told me
that you couldnt subtract poly's
but maybe there was miscommunication
i dont hold things against people
i just want to improve my math

i take it very seriously when someone claims sth i said but which i didn't.
so can this be simplified?
well, x^4 + 4x^2 + 4 can be written as (x^2 + 2), sure.
yes
but when its expanded out
top left
why cant you subtract
num from denom
if you can do (new example) (4x^2)/(2x^2) = 2
if the exponents are different you can still subtract
but what i was told is if you add another variable like "a" -> (a+b^2)/(a+b^2) you can not do anything about it
there is a lot of miscommunication going on here
in particular i do not understand what kind of manipulation you are talking about at all
its ok
so how would you have simplified this? (in the beginning)
$\frac{x}{x^{-1}+4} = \frac{x^2}{1+4x}$, for a start.
Ann
ok how did you get that
besides changing x^(-1) to x
(1+4x) denom how'd you get that
they multiplied the numerator and denominator by x
multiply the fraction by x/x
(which is fine to do because we can assume that x is nonzero due to the existence of x^(-1))
to get rid of the fraction x^(-1)
it's due to the fact that multiplication by 1 doesn't change the quantity
you can multiply by x/x because x/x is 1
got it.
is there a particular reason we are getting rid of -1 in the denom though
it is essentially a nested fraction you're dealing with.
you now can do long division if you want
no thanks 
if it was x^-1, would that need to be changed to 1/x then?
so like an inception of fractions
you could say that
would probably leave it at that
can apply the quotient rule now to take the derivative
theres no way to get rid of the 1?
no magic tricks
cause id love to just subtract x^2/(4x) then find derivative 😄
no there is no way to "get rid of the 1".
if you really want a trick, after long division you'll get something with degree 1 in the numerator, which you can get rid of using the +c -c trick, after which you're left with taking the derivative of 1/(1+4x) which is an easy chain rule
but just use quotient rule
you could do that sure
probably more steps
sigh

Closed by @cunning locust

how do i describe this
in terms of
acceleration
and velocity
like describe a
and b
and c
Whats A B and C
the lines
The length ?
ya
What is velocity
velocity is on the side
@shadow needle u have to create ur own channel
left one
I mean to ask
v = d/t
ya
i needd to desribe the line
like start from reference point then move south for 5 seconds at a xonstant velcoity
at an acceleration
of
wtv
yea
Acceleration is the slope of velocity time graph
4m/s^2
5s
$$v^2 = u^2 + 2as$$
Umbra
Oh
it just wants me to describe it in terms of acceleration and velocity
Ah I see
yea
0
Correct
bec its a straigjt line
Yes
how do i desribe it
constant movement for 15 seconds?
V = U
no acceleration
ya
Acceleration means change in velocity
yea
Since there is no change in velocity throughout B its 0
ya
What will be a at C
6m/s^2
oh whops
ya
ya
Need anything else
nope tysm

hey im just wondering how i would start this question
-i know it has something to do with the normal vector (under that category in the questions)
but im just used to being given the two vectors i have to put in the matrix but now i have 3 and it's being wacky for me
couldn't you find vector ab and ac
then find their magnitudes
then find the dot product between them
then use the formula Area = 0.5 * a * b * sinc
how would you start that
okie dokie i'll go try that
sorry for fried brain had physics and chem exam so i seem little bit stupid

Why is 1/3 % 3016
= 2011?
One third modulo three thousand sixteen?
There are probably some typos here or you are rounding stuff that you shouldn't
A third of 3016 is 1005.3333...
If you subtract that from 3016 you get 2010.666....
I really don't get why it is 2011.
It clearly says the solution is 2011.
This is part of the RSA algorithm.
d = e**(-1) mod N
d=(1/e)modϕ
@vernal saddle Has your question been resolved?
"1/3" is a number that, when you multiply it by 3, you get 1
modulo 3016, if you multiply 2011 by 3, you get 1
1/3 is pretty poor notation, its usually written 3^-1

don't know how to solve
yes
2
and what do these 2 edges have to have in common for it to be a rectangle
90 degree angle
which means...
180 after addition
the top line of a rectangle is at what angle
180
which means that it is what type of line
straight
so a straight line means what for the top edges
what do they must have in common for the line to be straight
gradient and angle have nothing to do with it
no idea
If I had a straight line, with points (1,2) (6,2), what is common about these points?
no idea
think about the co-ordinates
same gradient
gradient has nothing to with it
I cant think of anything
both are positive
What else
same y axis
and a rectangle needs what?
same height
same y axis on 2 sets of lines
meaning
a rectangle has 2 horizontal straight lines on top and bottom
so that gives you a clue on where one of the points may be
yes
so this could be an example of such

@red maple Has your question been resolved?
What do you find troubling in the question?
Hmm
my work is rly messy and i lowkey did this a week ago so i cant remember what my og thought process was 😭
$R = \frac{1}{10^{12}} e^{-\frac{t}{8223}}$
VulcanOne
yeah
VulcanOne
yeah
You did well by plugging in
$\frac{1}{8^{14}} = \frac{1}{10^{12}} e^{-\frac{t}{8223}}$
VulcanOne
VulcanOne
am i supposed to change it to log here
ohh
so it would be
VulcanOne
So like
1 sec
$\ln\left( \frac{10^{12}}{8^{14}} \right) = -\frac{t}{8223}$
VulcanOne
so this is -t?
Yep

The annual basketball tournament starts with a field of
sixty-four teams. After six rounds of play, the squad that
remains unbeaten is declared the national champion. How
many different configurations of winners and losers are
possible, starting with the first round? Assume that the initial
pairing of the sixty-four invited teams into thirty-two first-
round matches has already been done.
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
1
it's not clear but i think it's just the same as the results of all 63 matches
there are 63 matches by the way
one team remains, each match eliminates a team
yes
it doesnt make sense to me
that's my answer
can u expalin more
so hard to explain 
basically after the first round you get 2^32 results, and that determines winners and losers of the first round
and then 2^16 results determine winners and losers of the second round
and that's what they mean by configuration, this sequence of 6 "megaresults"

car makes it from point a to point b in 23hrs half of the distance he covers going 80km/h one third he covers with 60km/h and the rest with 40km/h. how much km is there between point a and b
Call e.g. the total distance d [and ideally set it to be in km]
Can you find how long each section of the journey takes, in hours and in terms of d?
lets start with the first part. if the whole distance is d, which distance is the car going with 80km/h?
d/2
how long will the car need for this - expressed in terms of d?
if d = 23hrs then 11.5hrs ?
ok, lets make it a little bit simpler. if you make 80 km per hour, how long will you need for e.g. 160 km?
2hours
and for 240 km?
4hours
no, 3 hours.
and for e.g. 200 km?
200/80
perfect. and for d/2?
d/160?
aight
whicht distance with 60 km/h?
d/60 ?
first the distance.
60km?
on third -> d/3
yes.
aight we getting somewhere
and how long is the rest, if we had a half and a third? whats remaining?
one sixth (1/6
yes, and which time with 40 km/h?
d/240 ?
exactly. no we have the time for each part, and we know the whole time is 23 hours.
not splitting, sum up. d/160 for the first part + d/180 for the second part + d/240 for the third part = 23 hours. Solve for d.
youre welcome.

How 3alpha gamma derived here?
what is it with this routine confusion between the letters r and gamma?
also this work is full of typos
for real
anyway, $\frac{\alpha + \beta + \alpha + \alpha - \beta}{(\alpha - \beta)(\alpha)(\alpha + \beta)} = \frac{3\alpha}{(\alpha - \beta)(\alpha)(\alpha + \beta)} = 3 \alpha r$
Ann
and how the last term is derived? 1/alpha^3 -p/alpha^2 . . .
Put x = 1/a
As 1/α is a root of x^3 - px^2 + qx - r = 0,
Can we substitute among other two roots instead of 1/alpha
@vale wigeon, why does the first line work? let roots be ...?
sure you can. you will suffer.
the roots are known to be in harmonic progression
which means their reciprocals are in arithmetic progression (and nothing else)
oh, thanks. didnt know H.P.
@dim matrix Has your question been resolved?
$\frac{\alpha + \beta + \alpha + \alpha - \beta}{(\alpha - \beta)(\alpha)(\alpha + \beta)}$
@vale wigeon How this term derived? When I am dividing equation 3 with equation 1, I'm getting eq. 2
Sirius
... ??
How LHS derived from eq1 and eq3?
$\frac{1}{(\alpha - \beta) \alpha}+ \frac{1}{\alpha (\alpha + \beta)} + \frac{1}{(\alpha - \beta)(\alpha + \beta)}$
Ann
add the fractions here
okay
@vale wigeon I stuck here
(alpha-beta)(alpha)(alhpa+beta)?
yes

how i can solve it?
whats the purpose
semplify
then try opening brackets first
i should try to semplify what is inside the brackets?
u know whats $(a+b)^2$
BLAZE
Open both brackets add them and see what happens
also this u expand (a sin alpha - 2 sin alpha)^2
(a sin alpha)^2 - 2(a sin alpha)(2 cos alpha) + (2 cos alpha)^2
Same for other, use a pen or something
u will realise -2ab + 2ab cancel out each other
And sin5π/2 is 1 for your last step
and after expansion when you common out a^2 it will become (sin^2 alpha + cos^2 alpha) which is equal to 1
same do it with 4
a^2 + 4 - 4 + a^2 = 2a^2

How can the proof in intermediate value theorem be used to prove that there's such a number that satisfies the conditions in the question?
3p...
whats p
i don't understand the question myself, but if it makes sense to you I'd advise drawing a diagram
OH thats not part of the Q
3p as in 3 points =...=
What I said then
@pale needle Has your question been resolved?
Yes
@pale needle Has your question been resolved?
recall the IVT:
If a function $f:[a, b]\to \mathbb{R}$ is continuous, there there exists some $c$ such that $f(a) < c < f(b)$ or $f(b) < c < f(a)$ and there exsists some $k$ such that $f(k) = c$. Now you can you this idea and notice that if the two endpoints are the same, then you have a few options for how the function behaves in between. It is either constant, concave up, concave down, or some combinations of those 3

cna someone help me see what happened to get the last answer?
i understand everything up until the last two steps
i know how he got the idenity
but how do i get the integral of that
$\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2} \cos 2x$?
Civil Service Pigeon
why does the 1/2 replace the 1 ?
I just split the fraction tbh
i'm so confused 😭
this whole section has my brain in jumbles
he pulled out the constant of 1/2
$\frac{a-b}{c}=\frac{a}{c}-\frac{b}{c}$, that's all I did from $\frac{1-\cos 2x}{2}$
Civil Service Pigeon
You could also do distributive on $\frac{1}{2}(1-\cos 2x)$ and just not combine it into one fraction
Civil Service Pigeon
okay i think i see a bit more now
one last question
if we do it his way where we pull out the constant
@rustic coral
how did he get the -1/2(sin(2u))?
i know integral of cos(x) is -sin(x)
but where's the -1/2 from in his problem?
$\frac{d}{du} \sin(2u)=2\cos(2u)$ by chain rule, so divide out by $2$
Civil Service Pigeon
ohh okay
so we do the opposite of what the deriviative would be
cos(2u) * 2
and doing the opposite we divide the 2 to remove it
ohh okay
ty!

The matrix at the top was used to multiply the result below. To obtain the orinal matrix, would I need to multiply the 2nd matrix by the inverse of the 1st one?
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/878646111525568593/1078042439874531378/image.png
if so... is this correct? I cannot manage to get the result in the form of a matrix
@crisp iron :D
What do you mean exactly, is the matrix at the top the result of multiplying num5_b with another matrix or constant etc.?
num5_b is the result, num5_a is the multiplicator
I'm trying to go back to num5_b before it was multiplied with num5_a
aha ok, well conventionally you would have to do this by hand as the rules that apply to variables do not apply the same to matrices e.g. num5_a^-1 would be the inverse rather than 1 over the matrix. Try considering and empty matrix and what numbers would fill in the columns such that when multiplying this by num5_a the result would be num5_b
Also consider the dimensions of the matrices, this is quite important
isn't that
num5_b_before = num5_a * num5_b
num5_a^-1 * num5_b_before = num5_a^-1 * num5_a *num5_b
num5_a^-1 * num5_b_before = i * num5_b
num5_a^-1 * num5_b_before = num5_b
?
like doesn't this work?
I think I might have misunderstood the problem, are you trying to find the matrix num_b_before which when multiplied by num5_a gives num5_b
nvm, the issue was that the matrixes were not multiplied in the correct order
result:
works like a charm!

do you know how to find the gradient of a line
not sure what you want me to do with that info
pick any 2 points
that the line goes through
oh right i get what this is asking for
basically
yh pick any 2 points
and draw a right angled triangle
yh
that should be the answer
dont you know how to find the gradient of a line
the lines or the slope
wait what did you answer for the slope
also ive never seen anyone in my entire life draw the rise and run as up then right, instead of right then up
what did you get for the slope, did you type 1 in?
wait, if you got the last 2 right, why did you need help with this one
