Find critical points by derivating.
Hmm, you might have done, but not heard it by name?
I know that I’ve basically been asked to apply the IVT without the name itself being mentioned
the only time ive heard of that is when i was learning binary search lol
its pretty intuitive
hmm
Basically find a point where you’re strictly positive, and find a point where you’re strictly negative
Provided you’re continuous in between those points, you have to take all the values “in between”
Of course that’s a very tl;dr’d explanation of it, but you should have the picture
right
LMAO
That will never get old for as long as that’s your username 
okay so a negative number and a positive number and if its continous all values will exist

Basically yea, any value between f(a) and f(b) will be taken
(And in fact any value between the maximum and minimum on that interval, which must be taken by continuity on a closed interval, but that’s more than we need)

how do you do 7 part b?
I am really confused by how the volume of the solid is given by that equation
I thought the volume of the solid formed would be by rearranging x as the subject of y =lnx, to get x = e^y, and then revolving that
the volume of the cylinder is pi r² dh, with r = e^h (or e^y) so you're not wrong. You just didn't use the formula yet
that does explain the e^y
yeah thats true
but when i use the formula I get pi multiplied by the integral of e^y squared
Im not sure where the first part of their formula came from
im not sure how to envision the solid when its revolved around the y axis
because theres a gap between it and the y axis
it's like a quarter-donut, but not in the usual sense of quarter
ahhh
yeah that makes sense
wait wouldnt it be a full donut?
if its revolved completely around
im struggling to imagine it
you're already looking at a slice
yeah
ohh wait
i thought that x slice was revolved around the y axis, as in if you rotated the x axis arund the y axis
i didnt realize you use the shape from the y axis to the curve, and then revolve that
I know i sound lost but i just started this topic half an hour ago so im still getting to grips with it lol
you rotate the x axis around the y axis yes. The that makes x the radius and y the height
hence here pi r² dh = pi x² dy
with x = e^y
now integrate over all heights, and you've got an integral in y
that does make sense, but does the radius of the cylinder change at various points in the cylinder?
or i guess im trying to ask if itsd a regular cylinder
it's not a cylinder, it's an ln shaped quarter donut
the cylinder is the infinitesimal approximation of the slice
so its radius changes as a function of y yes
as shown here
ahh ok
there's something about this sentence that I just love lmao
you don't need meth when you got math
hahah
so is a reason for using integration
being that the radius of each cylinder slice
constantly changes
yes
ahhh that makes sense
you can't call it a cylinder, but you can call it a pile of infinitesimal cylinders
with an error that becomes negligible when the cylinders get finner
that makes a load of sense
so you basically chop the big shape into near infinite cylinders
and then just sum tem all
that is smart
whoever came up with that
Newton and Leibniz independantly, say most math history books. Though Euclid and Archimedes already had the idea I think
Calculus, originally called infinitesimal calculus, is a mathematical discipline focused on limits, continuity, derivatives, integrals, and infinite series. Many elements of calculus appeared in ancient Greece, then in China and the Middle East, and still later again in medieval Europe and in India. Infinitesimal calculus was developed in the la...
to think they came up with this
a lot of people
with hardly anywhere near as much tech as we do
which makes sense since it's a very basic concept
yeah
the part which confuses me is how, by integrating the equation of one cylinder slice, do you get an equation for the sum of all the cylinders
that's integrals
it's not "one cylinder slice"
or what im actually doing
more like a description of a cylinder slice, based on the value of y
yeah
replace the integral by a sigma and it becomes more intuitive if that helps
yeah it does
is there a reason why integrating the equation of the general slice, gives an equation for the summation of them all, given bounds for the radius
there's always a reason
for instance, you can use this technique to prove the formula for the volume of a sphere
yeah you can
it essentially is just a load of tiny cylinders
ohhh @marsh rapids the formula makes sense now. the total sum of the volume of I guess the block around the y axis is pi times the integral of 2e, which is pi times e^2 /2
you didn't just take e as a variable did you
and then you take that away from the volume of the y revolving, which is the integral of pi times r^2
which leaves the area of the region R
no i used e because I imagined i guess a massive rectangle. of width e and height 1, revolving arond the y axis
as that would include both the revolving of the region R, and the revolving of x = e^y around the y axis

If R is a local ring with maximal ideal m, how can I prove that a ring homomorphism f:M_n(R) --> M_n(R/m) is surjective on units? I.e. for a unit A in M_n(R/m) there exists a unit A' in M_n(R) such that f(A')=A

if i have an item on a scale and i push the button so the number is 0
and then i move the item to the side by pushing it
the number the scale shows goes to the negatives
why is that
it 0s it
so that whatever the weight of the item is
is now 0
and so when you remove it
No
The number goes back to 0 when i stop pushing the item
Its a physics question not a idk how my scale works question
maybe youre inadvertedly providing support while youre pushing it?
The only thing i can think of
But shouldnt be the case
This isn't even a math question look at the manual for your scale
But generally it's done to account for the weight of containers
if you look in #old-network you could try the 'physics' server 
oh cool thanks
youre the 2nd person who doesnt understand my question even after i explained it

how did they tell you to solve this?
idk
is this from homework
yes
Well they should have taught you something about how to solve these right?
maybe use ln
do you know what to use then?
yeah you can't use ln
yeah, i suspect that considering the remainders of both sides mod 4 can be fruitful.
sheesh
have you learned mod arithmatic
nope
@vale wigeon They haven't been taught mod
i think im a bit too young to learn it :)
wait, how old are you...?
and i wonder how you're expected to do this if not by that means
maybe just parity??
imma be 15 this year
im i a bit too young or what else

How should I solve it further?
Solving it means isolating x
How exactly?
I can't take x-3 to RHS
$\frac{a}{b}=c \ a=c\cdot b$
~Martin
why can you not?
bcz the value of x-3 could be a positive number or a negative number.
like x-3<0 and x-3>0 ?
yes
Shouldn't I make 0 on RHS first?
so problems like this one here can be solved just by taking the cases of denominator irrespective of sign and numerator?
splitting it up in different cases is the way to go
but beware, this problem actually has more to it than you might think
How can I figure that out?
Actually I solved a similar question
and I'm trying to understand why the same method isn't working here.
lets go through it:
case 1) x-3>0
6/(x-3)<5
6<5(x-3)
case 2) x-3<0
6/(x-3)<5
6>5(x-3)
then it gets simple
and in the end there is one small thing to note
This one here
well in this task, you would also have to check both cases, no?
How can we take (x-3) to RHS?
multiply
But just if we are sure about the values.
ok i have to go now
once you have your result, you will have one with x< something and one with x> something
for the x<something you should look back at the assumption you made (x-3<0)
this means that whatever solution we get in this case, it only makes sense if it is x<a<3
if a itself is greater then 3, then that makes no sense
if this is the case, then think about what the answer is
if you can't figure it out im sure someone here can help you out

Hii, how do I find the nature of $\sum u_{n}$ ?
lilisworld
what do you mean by nature? and what are the limits of the sum?
yes
if convergent or not
did u try ratio test
no i don't even know what it means 
i can use comparison test, riemann series
and eventually taylor expansions
<@&286206848099549185>
did you try writing the numerator as a single log and then l'hopital?
I tried changing the numerator with taylor series but how do I mae it into a single log?
,tex .log rules
riemann
power rule and quotient rule
i'm gonna try then
uhm... anyway, i couldnt write it in latex but it gave me somthing that doesn't look like it's simpler
did you taylor expand the numerator using the log taylor series
only expended $\sqrt{1+n}$
lilisworld
sqrt is only part of the log
you need to apply the taylor series of log on the entire argument
$\log(y) = y - y^2 / 2 + ...$
riemann
y = your combined log in the numerator
ok
nah
so i just divide then?
i don't know how you got that, but yes
i used an online program because it was too complicated for me
no it's the other one, the first one was the wrong result but now it gives me this
it still doesnt look like a riemann series but maybe i did something wrong
i'll try again
it's probably easier if you used the log expansion twice on the original numerator
$\log(y) = (y-1) + o((y-1)^2)$
riemann
mmhh i didnt know we could do tht
ill do it tomorrow but thanks for the tips

Binomial numbers
Chapter is about probabilities
Though if you see an exercise about them and never saw this notation you probably missed a lecture somewhere
$\binom{a}{b} = ^aC_b$
Umbraleviathan
Combination?
Looks good to me
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
wait nvm
$\binom{a}{b} = \frac{a!}{b! (a-b)!}$
strikersigmaV
How so I find n though is there some property I am missing?
Can't seem to resolve this aljebraically
Lemme recheck notes
Hint: binomial coefficients are symmetric. So $\binom{n}{k} = \binom{n}{n-k}$
Mikkel
You can also solve it manually using this
You don't really need to know a lot about binomials to use this to get to an answer
how come you're doing a test on something you havent learned yet? that's really going to be hard.
I have learned probabilities but not binomials
If $\binom{n}{k} = \binom{n}{n - k}$ then from the information $\binom{n}{5} = \binom{n}{7}$ you can set $k = 5$ and $n - k = 7$ and then solve for $n$
Mikkel
I'll try
Also what are options b and d ?
b) perish
d) 
Lmao
Cause if it's a any integer between 0 and 4 it's also correct
So I can use this, is a:12 correct
Yo
Shouldn't $k \leq n$? 
Mikkel
nCk = 0 if n < k
Okay wtf is going on
If this is not the correct way to go about it then what?
Huh, never seen this before
so it's 12
And 0
Because 0 = 0 is a correct equality
N-5 = 7 -->
So 12 and 0 are both correct?
Yes but it's not the only way two binomial coefficients can be equal
Fk
Okay meteo, assume I have a test soon and idk a whole lot, to increase my chances of guessing right should I use this?
So 12 and 0
Should I use this? To increase chances?
If this supposed to be a single answer exercise ?
I suppose, since there are 4 choices and we have to choose one and in this practice worksheet there are option a and d , 12 and 0
If you can only choose one choose 12, if you can choose many also choose 0
Alright chief
Do you have any papers/sites that defines nCk as 0 for k > n? I've never seen it in any of my courses, and can't find anything on it online

I doee
Yo my dude know any of this sheet
Where does 2¹⁰-1 come from
The correct answer is b according to the book
It's on the french wikipedia but not the English one
The English one implies in the intro paragraph that it refuses to define it for n < k
Clearly the French "people" are wrong, yet again
Even though it's a very natural thing to do both combinatorially and as an extension to Pascal's formula
Yo anyone know thies
Use $nPk = \frac{n!}{(n-k)!}$
Mikkel
Wait
What about this, they said correct answer is b
When I reread the question it is phrased really odd
Where tf does 2 come from
On or off = 2 states
Indeed
You always have to be careful with words
Words suck
I wouldn't go that far
Ahh fk me
2 states can occur for 10 bulbs
222...*2
I see
Remember that n! = n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)...(1)
I have little time, that's why I am so hurried
Yes
Mikel
But that won't reduce it would it?
It's going from n to negative infinity
n specifically
Until it reaches 1
Hmmm
Hmm
Wait
n-5 would be left in den
Num**
Not den
Think of n as some number on the number line, and (n - 5) as the number 5 before n. Then (n - 5)! is this number that is 5 before n multiplied with its predecessors. Now think of (n - 6)! as the number before (n - 5) multiplied together with its predecessors. If you have (n - 5)(n - 6)(n - 7)...(1)/(n - 6)(n - 7)...(1) you remove all the predecessors before (n - 5) of (n - 5)!
That was some word-brawling I had to do, to phrase that
Yes
Is the "3." supposed to mean that it is multiplied by 3?
I see some places using "." as multiplication
Then it's 18?
How do you get that?
(n - 5)!/(n - 6)! = n!/n! = 1 --> n - 5 = 1
Wait
You get n - 5 = 3 if you see it as multiplied by 3
Which gets you n = 8
I believe I have acquired an inner hatred for whoever has written your assignment with this notation
It's 8
It's eastern Asia, so yea we all forcus too much on bullshit and memorizing sheet than doing actual math
Half the questions are worded like a decrypting letters from zodiac killer
We truly need a mathematics police that standardize all notation
Well actually...
You know what matrix A raised to theta is
It's conjugate inverse of a complex matrix
That's the notation
Fk me
Why would you know this and be learning combinatorics at the same time ?
?
Our study syllabus is a potato salad, learned matricies before calculus
Feels like one is simple high school stuff and the other one is something you'd only really find in undergrad
My sister is learning integrals before limits
Ok wtf
That's why students un alive hemselves
Sometimes I dream about "The Great Standardization" where we overhaul everything from units to notation and throw everyone in jail who opposes this grand new system
That's what happens when you let engineers design the math syllabus
1984 flashbacks
You call it 1984, I call it Heaven on Earth
But then 2+2=5
$\binom{n}{k} = \binom{n - 1}{k} + \binom{n - 1}{k - 1}$
Mikkel
Imma write this property down
Wtf they say c is correct
I got d
How did you get d
Yes
That is correct
Soo d is correct?
13
So n - 1
12
And k?
So (n - 1)Ck = 12C9
I still got some problems left,
You guys have helped the sheet out of me, I have to memorize formulas, properties and and study physics and memorize and do shit the whole day tommorow
The day after tomorrow is my test
Know any property for this?
?
.
Doesn't matter
Replace the negative signs with positive val
Just replace n with n + 1 and k with k + 1 in this
I would say the one where you do this
But it's pretty arbitrary. It's the same thing as some people like to use "a_{n}" to show the next number in a sequence, and others like to use "a_{n + 1}"
What this one tells you though, is one of the "interpretations" that you can get from Pascal's triangle
Where every binomial coefficient is the sum of the two above it
Like this
Now I know that any of numbers from 1 to 9 can go into a place of a digit, there are 5 digits and numbers can repeat
So 9^5
But how would I go about finding repetition?
You can think about it in another way
How so
The total number of 5-digit numbers minus the 5-digit numbers that doesn't have repetitions
No
You have 5 digits, that can all be the numbers 0-9. This means you can have 10^5 unique 5-digit numbers in total
0 is also a digit
Now, if you want to know the amount of numbers that doesn't have repetitions, you can look at the first digit out of the 5. How many ways can this digit be chosen?
10
Yes
Then 9
Yep
10!/(10-5)!
Yep
Q 46, 543*2
Not sure where I am going wrong
Nvm
I get it
Actually
So I understand that 4 spaces for 5 rings is 5!/1!
4
1
4? There are 5 rings but 4 spaces
Yes. So if you look at the first ring out of the 5, you can place this in 4 different slots
Yes
There are 4 rings but 3 spaces
4 spaces
We just placed 1?
There can be several rings on the same finger
Ohh fk
This...
Or the question doesn't make sense, since you can't place 5 things in 4 slots, if you can't have repetitions of slots
But you can do 5!/1! And get permutations for it but clearly thats not the answer
Lemme think sboutbit
So the number of slots are 4! Once one is occupied 3 would be left
Can each slot contain all 5 rings?
I think you are complicating it again
I am trying to think it through
With the 5 rings, we first want to look at how many places we can place the first ring
4
3, 2 , 1
You can place the second ring on the same finger as the first ring
So there are still 4 fingers when you place the second one
Yes
And then 3 for 3rd
No
You can also place the third ring on the same finger as the two former
So there are still 4 fingers
Yes
You don't need factorials for this
Think of having 5 rings on the table and your four fingers up
You now pick up a ring and place it at random on one of your fingers, you can do this 4 ways
You now pick up the second ring, and place this on one of your fingers, you can do this 4 ways also
The same for the next ring; 4 ways
And the fourth, and the fifth
So in total, you have 4*4*4*4*4 = 4^5 ways of doing this
If 5 rings can go 4 ways, 4 ways in 1st finger, 4 ways in 2nd finger, 4 ways, in 3rd finger, 4 ways in 4th finger, 4 ways in 5th finger. Number of possible ways 4^5
I was thinking of placements

someone can tell me why derivate 3x?
this part
chain rule
derivative of 3x^0.5
3x^0.5=f(g(x))
with f(x)=x^0.5 and g(x)=3x
then the derivative is f'(g(x))*g'(x)
can ilustrate me pls
what do you mean
you dont know the chain rule?
that seams strange
as i said, if we have
f(x)=g(h(x))
then
f'(x)=g'(h(x))*h'(x)
that is literally everything
what
no
why would it
i mean
what you asked is, how does d/dx (3x)^1/2 become (3x)^-1/2 * d/dx (3x)
where do you see a csc there?
why 3x^1/2 was added i dont understand that part
hmm ok
that is not your original question
anyway
chain rule again
we have
$f(x)=\csc\sqrt{3x}$
~Martin
~Martin
we use chain rule again to take the derivative of f
maybe watch some videos on the chain rule
you mean I should derive 3x again?

I’m trying to understand this explanation for denesting radicals (390-391). The technique works but I don’t understand why you can multiply each side of the equation by it’s conjugate. Could someone help shed some light on this?
they've established that the square root can be expressed in that form in 390 (with justification),
so that manipulation in 391 is just multiplying both sides of the equation by the same value

I see that the conjugates of each side also equal each other, but why can you then multiply each side of the original equation by their respective conjugates? Is there a particular subject that would help clarify the strategy used here? I’d really like to grasp this at a more fundamental level.
@marsh ore Has your question been resolved?
Is this a systems of equations thing? I don’t get why you can do this and obtain a meaningful answer. I think I need to revisit an earlier topic, but I’m not sure which one.
no it's not
Let's say you have a = b and c = d
then ac = bd
and the way to see this
Start with a = b.
Then we can say ac = bc, since we're doing the same thing to both sides.
We also know c = d, and therefore bc = bd, since we're just multiplying both sides by b.
Then ac = bd because of transitivity
I’m not getting past your first assertion that ac = bd.
I think I need to reread this with a fresh mind. That’s good food for thought for now. I’ll revisit it in the morning. Thank you all.
wdym? you don't understand how I got ac=bd?
I literally gave the reasoning below
Yeah, I realized after reading. I thought you were making that assertion based on just a=b and c=d
well yeah, I'm saying that if you know a=b and c=d, then you know ac=bd, but I gave the reasons why

did u account for leap years
jan has 31 days
you calculated 5 yrs and 2 months as jan 27th 2000
its an extra 6 days to get to feb 2nd
yes
you are now 27th jan 2000
not November
huh
27 -> 28 -> 29 -> 30 -> 31 -> 1 -> 2
6 arrows
You start 27th Nov 1994
go +5 years to 27th Nov 1999
go +2 months to 27th jan 2000
go +6 days to feb 2nd 2000
yes
but you are going +5 years then +2 months first
You were wrong bec online calculators calculated it like this
I’d say its weird
there is no “wrong” or “right”
it’s ambiguous
unless theres a specific criteria or further instructions
4 days?
def not
where did 4 days come from
that would be feb 1st
not feb 2nd
this criteria is still not that specific
is it saying jan 27 to feb 27 is 1 month?
why
how many days?
thats even weirder lol
so
jan 27 to march 27 is what?
- how many days?
yeah thats just weird but clearly u know the specifications better than me
so if they match ur answer then its correct ?
well no calculator has ur specific specifications
based on this ur answers correct
assuming thats all correct
yea
yes if there are no seconds

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
Simplify what's in the parenthesis

Okay i'm doing my brother's homework and this question confused me: Daniela borrowed some money from her parents. She agreed to pay P700 at the end of the first month and P100 more each additional month for 12 months.
do I solve for 11 months or 12 months
but there's 100 more each additional month for 12 months
but the first month was paid for already
?!?!?
i'm a stupid senior year student, please help 😭
ah
.
How much does she pay in total after the 12 months?
so she pays 700 the first month then 800 then 900 etc right?
yeah
is the additional 100 for 12 months?
or 11 months because the first month was paid for already
huh
fixed it
well is it 700 + 800 + 900... or 700 + 800 + 800...
but either way 11 months
is when you add the additional 100(s)
yes
,w sum from 1 to 12 of 100n + 600
ohh wait something went wrong
okay either way its wrong

y=5+2x-x^2
x=5
whats the question? solve for y?
I think so, it said solve the function if that changes anything
plug in x=5 into your first equation, what do you get?
I did that and I got 40, the main problem is that the answer booklet says -10
Since it’s a problem with whether or not it’s (-x)^2 or -(x^2) so I want to get another opinion since my teacher has said these answer booklets are occasionally wrong
Well the way I took it is
5+10+25 which gets me 40
So it’s supposed to be the 5^2 first and ignore the - before it? To get 5+10-25 instead
Alright- I was always taught that if you had a negative number squared it would equal positive since negative times negative is positive
Is it different in functions or it is just implied somewhere I missed?
thats true
but its
-(x^2)
not (-x)^2
if you see -x^2 you do the x^2 first then multiply by -1
Brackets are very important in maths!!!
Ah, alright
What about
x^2 -2x -3
x=-2
Would it be
4+4-3 = 5
Or
-4+4-3=-3
hibyehibye
$(-2)^2 - 2(-2) - 3$
hibyehibye
$4 + 4 - 3$
hibyehibye
so yea the former
So in that case the answer booklet was wrong? Since the answer booklet says -3
My teacher has warned us that occasionally it is wrong
yes
(-2)^2
,w x^2 -2x -3, x=-2
Alright!
So if it’s a minus in front of x^2 do the x^2 first but if x equals a negative number then it’s the whole negative times negative equals positive stuff?
yeah i think so
you evaluate the x^2 first, doesnt matter what x is

Is this correct?
seems right
When I checked online it's given like this
Odd numbers are 3,5,7 and 9 as well
The n how can you explain the online solution.
online solution must be for some different question
no as far as I know your solution is correct
👍
Odd is any number that can be written in the form 2k+1 where k is an integer
Right
Yeah
Lol nvm
What is the question about
Wait lemme share the question
👍🏼
@inland oriole
Then 80 is the answer
Idk tbh
I think you are just interested in the last digit
Yeah
Because it determines whether the number is odd
Maybe try asking someone that knows combinatorics
Hmm
Cuz this is product rule stuff
Hmm
I don’t know what that n choose k notation means for permutations only for the binomial theorem
Ok then I gotta go... thanks for the help @inland oriole e
I will be closing this channel....
Lol
I’ll ping you if I find an answer later

How does the absolute value work here? do we just plug in 0.3 and if the answer is negative just remove the - sign?
|-a| = |a|
so it would be like |blah(0.3)| - |blah(0)| ?
indeed

how to solve this real quick just one
preassure is equal to the density times g times the height
ans is A
so take 75 cm ´times the density 13600 times 9.82
0.75 actually
and that sth epreassure of the mercury, but then there is air at the top i dont know what to do with that
I thought is (9.81)(13600)(0.08)
102000Pa , maybe I need minus something
Oh it's 1/100(13600)(10)
I forgot atmospheric pressure is 76cmHg

How to factorize xy-3x+2y=0
And 5x+5y-xy=0
I cant just search for roots like for quadratic equations
So is there any systematic methods of finding those factorizations?
Like this is supposed to be (x-2)(y-3)=6
But how?
And if you could do this one plz
factor x or y firstly from two terms
then write down same bracket next to what you stayed with
and manipulate equation such that it won't change
How to factorize xy-3x+2y=0
are these the original instructions
Yes but im looking for the method
Idk how to factorize such equatons
look at the same example
and now let's factor 'y' firstly
5x + 5y - xy = 0
factor 'y'
y(5-x) + 5x = 0
as a question, it doesn't make much sense
which makes me wonder if you're making adjustments to the original wording
I am justlooking to write it as a product
I dont get this step
we want to have common term to factor it out
