peak bough
#

And the second digit?

steep moon
#

5

peak bough
#

Yes

#

And we know that for the 3-digit number to be even, the last digit can only be either 0, 2 or 6

#

So how many ways can the third digit be chosen?

steep moon
#

3

peak bough
#

Exactly

steep moon
#

4•5•3 or we doing sum diff?

ocean sealBOT
#

Mikkel

steep moon
#

yes so it is 60

peak bough
#

Yes

steep moon
#

if 125 has 60 even numbers then it has 65 un even numbers?

#

i mean odd

peak bough
#

So we now have the following information:
-there can be made a total of 100 3-digit numbers
-60 of them are even
-whole numbers that are not even are odd

peak bough
steep moon
#

yes

ocean sealBOT
#

Mikkel

steep moon
#

oh

#

OHH

#

So we only change the 3rd digit to find the odd or even numbers

peak bough
#

Yes

steep moon
#

so 60 odd for it

peak bough
#

?

steep moon
#

65

peak bough
#

Yes, if 0 is counted as a possible first digit

steep moon
#

and if not just 60

peak bough
#

Wait no

steep moon
#

with 40 odd

#

huh

peak bough
#

One moment

steep moon
#

oki

peak bough
#

If we count 0 as a possible first digit:

-125 total 3-digit numbers
-75 even numbers

If we don't count 0 as a possible first digit:

-100 total 3-digit numbers
-60 even numbers

#

There we go

steep moon
#

OHHH I got it reversed

#

my fault g

peak bough
#

No it's alright. I got confused myself for a minute there

steep moon
#

you great bro thanks for the help

Let f : [a, b] → R be a strictly increasing function. Suppose that im(f ) = [c, d] for some c, d (in other words, its image is the whole interval [c, d], without any gaps, and nothing else). Prove that f is continuous.

floral snow
#

Is this correct?

mortal trellis
#

f(x0) makes no sense if x0 is in [c,d]

#

presumably you mean it the other way around

#

why is f(x0) not an endpoint if x0 is not

#

you have to show that x1<x0<x2, you cant just say it

#

it is because of the next inequality you are writing down. you are mixing up the order

#

you havent shown that in the end if you pick an x with |x-x0|<delta for the delta you have chosen, then you need to have |f(x)-f(x0)|<eps

#

the - hasn't been distributed inside the (x-5)^2

#

all they've done is:

#

-[a - b] = -a + b
where a = (x-5)^2 and b = 22

echo socket
#

a = (x - 5)^2 you mean?

Could someone explain the steps to rewrite this equation? Haven't had to do this yet as it wasn't covered in lecture so I'm a little lost here.

Assuming the equation is all that's needed but here's the graph as well if it helps.

dusky kraken
#

Hey, I can’t exactly see where i went wrong here

dusky kraken
#

We need to solve the first line for x

#

2dp

limpid spade
#

u didnt divide by two in both sides

#

at left side u divided by two but at right side u mutliplied by two

#

instead of dividing two

#

hence disturbing the balance and invoking mathematical chaos pandemonium

dusky kraken
#

I don’t know how my brain managed that @limpid spade

#

Let me fix that

#

Ok I still face a problem of it being incorrect @limpid spade

limpid spade
#

you didnt log the conatants

dusky kraken
#

What do you mean?

limpid spade
#

log(2 3^x)!= 2(xlog(3))

dusky kraken
#

Im sorry I still don’t see where you’re looking @limpid spade

#

What line

limpid spade
#

second

dusky kraken
#

Hmm

#

But 2(3^x) == 2(xln(2)) no? @limpid spade

limpid spade
#

no

wise forge
#

pls help

lone heartBOT
queen narwhal
#

Plug in

#

The number

#

And combine the@outputs

queen narwhal
wise forge
#

can you do (a) as an example? not really understanding

queen narwhal
#

Look at the graph for g(x)

#

If x is 2

#

What is y

#

(The output)

wise forge
#

y=2g?

queen narwhal
#

Erm

#

So

#

g isn’t a variable

#

So u don’t multiple it by 2

#

Instead it’s a function

#

So

#

Ok

#

If we look at the graph

#

Let’s start out at

#

X=2

#

Then we walk up the y axis until we hit

#

The graph y=g(x)

#

It hits at 1

wise forge
#

itd be (0,0) and (1,2)

#

right?

queen narwhal
#

Huh?

#

Where u get those numbers

wise forge
#

graphing y=g(2)

queen narwhal
#

How’d you get 1,2

#

We are inputing 2 into the function

#

And we can see that

#

Since the function is g(x)

#

We have x=2

#

So when x=2

#

What would y be

#

On the pink line

wise forge
#

1?

queen narwhal
#

Yesh

wise forge
#

uhuh

queen narwhal
#

So g(2)=1 !

#

Do same for f(2)

#

And then

#

Add both of those outputs

wise forge
#

f(2) = 4

#

g(2) = 1

queen narwhal
#

Add them nowwwww :3

wise forge
#

5?

queen narwhal
#

Yesssss

wise forge
#

wtf

queen narwhal
#

At least I think

wise forge
#

just llike that?

queen narwhal
#

Yesh

#

I sure hope so

#

💀

wise forge
#

yeah (a) was right

queen narwhal
#

Nice

wise forge
#

ugh ty so much

queen narwhal
#

Np I’m just waiting for someone to help me now 😭

wise forge
#

okok could you walk me thru (b)

#

same rule applies right

queen narwhal
#

Yep

#

Put in 1

#

Then f-1

#

I@meant

wise forge
#

but this time were (-)

queen narwhal
#

F-g

wise forge
#

okok

queen narwhal
#

Yep

wise forge
#

-1

#

okok

queen narwhal
#

Sounds

#

Correct

wise forge
#

so then (c) would be multiplying

queen narwhal
#

Yeth

wise forge
#

and (d) would be dividing

queen narwhal
#

Yep

#

P ez right v

#

V?

wise forge
#

ugh fuck

#

ty so much

queen narwhal
#

Why

#

Oh

#

Yeah np

#

I’m on a shuttle home n bored

wise forge
#

shuttle? :o

queen narwhal
#

Like

#

Bus

#

?

#

Lil bus

wise forge
#

yes ik what shuttle is

#

lmao

queen narwhal
#

wise forge
#

how far are you away from home?

queen narwhal
#

I’m right outside now

#

Parkinggg

wise forge
#

glad you made it home safe!

queen narwhal
#

Thank u

queen narwhal
wise forge
#

go where..?

pale flame
#

I do not understand how to solve problems 5 and 6. I would really appreciate any help on how to get started.

wary stream
pale flame
#

Sorry, how do I do that with a fraction?

wary stream
#

Recall your exponent rules, like $\frac{1}{a^n} = a^{-n}$

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

pale flame
#

Should it end up looking like this?

wary stream
#

No

#

try to manipulate those numbers to have the same base

pale flame
#

I’m sorry I’m SO confused. I definitely wasn’t taught any of this so I’m kinda struggling lol

wary stream
#

Take 25, that's the same as 5^2, correct?

#

How can you rewrite 36, with some base and some exponent?

pale flame
#

6^2 right?

wary stream
#

Yes

#

Can you do the same for 1/216?

pale flame
#

Yes, it would be 6 and would it be raised to the power of -36?

wary stream
#

Not exactly

#

A hint, 216 is a perfect cube

pale flame
#

Oh, so it would be 6^3

wary stream
#

Closer

pale flame
#

but would the cube be negative because it’s 1/216

wary stream
#

When you manipulated that equation to have the same base, what's the current equation you have now?

pale flame
#

I have 6^2X = 6^-3

wary stream
#

Now recall that when you have an equation with the same bases, you can just set the exponents equal to each other

pale flame
#

Oh I didn’t know that! So I will cancels out the 6s which leaves me with 2x = -3 and then arrive at -3/2?

wary stream
#

Yes

#

You can apply that same concept with question 6

pale flame
#

Okay, sorry I’m kind of confused on how to set up this one as well. I’ll send what I have now

wary stream
pale flame
#

Oh! That makes a lot of sense, I don’t know why I didn’t just recognize it.

#

I hope I am not wasting your time I just am very confused on how to solve this problem set.

wary stream
#

How would you get rid of that ln?

#

@pale flame

pale flame
#

I thought that since they both included ln(x) I could cancel those features out

wary stream
#

No

#

That's not a legal step

#

If you have something like $log_{10}(x) = 2$, how would you solve for x?

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

lone heartBOT
#

@pale flame Has your question been resolved?

pale flame
#

I truthfully have no idea, I’m sorry.

wary stream
#

That's useful

#

You need to apply the last rule to your problem

pale flame
#

How do I apply that?

wary stream
#

What's the "opposite" of ln?

pale flame
#

e^x

wary stream
#

Yes

#

So the base needs to be e

pale flame
#

okay, so I get e^x+7 = e^x + 2

wary stream
# wary stream

You're skipping a bit there. The base needs to be e, so you apply rule 7 from this

#

Putting all that to e, it makes it $e^{ln(x+7)} = e^{ln(x) + 2}$

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

pale flame
#

okay, once I do that, do I not end up getting ^7= e^2 + 2

wary stream
#

No

#

Look at rule 7, notice how the base cancels out with the log base and you're left with the stuff on the inside?

pale flame
#

I don’t really understand what it’s saying.

wary stream
#

Do you agree on this, $10^{log_{10}(2)} = 2$?

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

pale flame
#

I don’t know, because I’m not sure how to read that

vapid shuttle
lone heartBOT
vapid shuttle
#

Okay so this is the question

#

I am unsure with where to begin. Normally least squares I know is for when Ax=b has no solution

#

but I can't tell what Ax=b is in this case

#

and we want to make it the best solution possible by doing some sort of projection

#

is it going to be projecting <0,1> onto <c, 0>

#

that's all that I can spit out of my mind about this one

naive valley
#

hey

#

just found this haha

vapid shuttle
#

lol

#

hello

naive valley
#

lemme take a moment to read

#

oh this looks familiar

#

i think i saw this screenshot the other day

#

but didn't have time to comment or think about it much

vapid shuttle
#

yeah I opened it up but after a few hours went offline and nothing came of it

naive valley
#

do you have general formulas for C-hat and D-hat for a linear fit?

#

given some data points

vapid shuttle
#

I do not

#

should I?

naive valley
#

they're not too hard to derive but my god doing it on 30 mins of sleep, that's asking a lot of my brain

vapid shuttle
#

I can wait for other helpers if you should get to sleep XD

naive valley
vapid shuttle
#

do I put all the

#

<0, 0>

#

and the one

#

<0, 1>

#

into a matrix

#

call it A

#

and then multiply by column vector <c ,d>

naive valley
vapid shuttle
#

That is definitely not what I am supposed to use

#

although it might work

#

XD

naive valley
#

mm

#

for context, how do you typically approach this kind of problem

#

it's probably equivalent to what i just pasted

vapid shuttle
#

With a projection

naive valley
#

ok

#

and do you have some general formula for such a projection?

vapid shuttle
#

No, normally I would set up the Ax=b that I cannot solve and then transform that into A^T A x-hat = A^T b and solve for x-hat

vapid shuttle
#

yes!

naive valley
#

so your x would be [C D]

#

the two unknown parameters of the linear fit

#

now C is the constant term

#

so the corresponding column in the A matrix would be all 1's

#

and D is the slope term

#

so the corresponding column in the A matrix would be the 21 t values

#

to wit:

#

$$\begin{pmatrix}1 & -10 \ 1 & -9 \ 1 & -8 \ \cdots & \cdots \ 1 & 10 \end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix}C \ D\end{pmatrix} = B$$

ocean sealBOT
naive valley
#

where $B$ is a column vector which is all zeros except at the middle entry (corresponding to t=0) where it is 1

ocean sealBOT
vapid shuttle
#

1 moment let me read this

naive valley
#

are you with me so far?

#

ok

vapid shuttle
#

So, why is the left hand side 1's instead of 0's of the large column vector on the left

naive valley
#

read the system of equations row by row

#

the first row says:

#

C -10D = 0

#

the second row says:

#

C - 9D = 0

#

the third row says:

#

C - 8D = 0

#

...

#

then you get to the one with t=0

#

that one says:

#

C -0D = 1

#

(not 0 on the RHS)

#

then

#

C + 1D = 0

#

C + 2D =0

#

...

#

C + 10D = 0

#

in all cases:

#

C is the constant term

#

and D is the "slope" term

vapid shuttle
#

Yes okay no I do get that now!

naive valley
#

cool

#

now that's 21 equations and 2 unknowns

#

probably doesn't have a solution

#

so we do least squares to find the closest solution

vapid shuttle
#

yes

naive valley
#

that's where your
A^T A x = A^T B
x = (A^T A)^-1 A^T B
comes in

vapid shuttle
#

and B is all 0's except for the 11th entry?

naive valley
#

yep

#

and 1 in that entry

vapid shuttle
#

and it is just a single column

#

yah

naive valley
#

yep

vapid shuttle
#

okay so we have our Ax=B now

vapid shuttle
vapid shuttle
naive valley
#

yep

#

here x represents the column vector $$\begin{pmatrix}C \ D\end{pmatrix}$ which is annoying to typeset outside of tex

you need to do long division first

Any french here?

#

DSE = Developpable en série entière

#

Ma question est la suivante: comment pouvons-nous appliquer cette proposition à la fonction exp

#

La dérivée n-ième de exp(x) est exp(x) et exp n’est majorée par aucun nombre réel

#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

In english:
Prof gave us a theorem stating that if a function's nth derivative is < a real number M then this function is expandable in a form of a power series
And he applied this theorem to exp(x)

#

My question is: how can we apply this proposal to the exp function?
The n-th derivative of exp(x) is exp(x) and exp is not smaller then any real number

but i havent been able to

the answer ive been getting is x^2-23x / (x+4)(x-5)

tall path
#

I originally thought that my answer was 7 but it says Im wrong

#

The only other number I can think of is 2

stuck geyser
#

mb

tall path
#

nw

#

Would square root of x+18 be rewritten as (x+18)1/2

pseudo ice
#

$(x + 18)^{1/2}$ sure

ocean sealBOT
#

@pseudo ice

tall path
#

then I can derive it as 1/2(x+18)^1/2 right?

#

So where my 7 is would instead be 2 im guessing

pseudo ice
#

$\frac{1}{2} (x + 18)^{-\frac{1}{2}}$

ocean sealBOT
#

@pseudo ice

tall path
#

Ohhh gotcha so it moves back to the numerator which is why it's up there

pseudo ice
#

(actually it should be 1/2 rather than 2, my bad there)

tall path
#

No worries!

pseudo ice
#

Actually nooooo I'm being slow lol

pseudo ice
#

I ended up thinking they left it in power form for some reason without checking it bleakkekw

sacred flax
#

shouldnt the 7 be 1 or am i trippin

#

i am

#

nvm

Ohhhhhh okay that makes more sense haha. I was a little throw off for a second KEK

oh wait i think i see where your question is

#

yh the solution looks wrong

tepid crane
#

I'm self studying and I'm kind of confused as to why it's a minus on the answer. When I was solving it I got 19b^7 + 12b^4 I was so sure it was correct that I never noticed it was 19b^7 - 12b^4 instead. Why is it minus? I thought the whole 12b^4 with the plus gets brought down.

thats just them messing up lol

Oh! I was confused for days. Had to put the book down to somehow rationalize this. I'm glad I asked. Thank you!

Hello, I need help with Multivariable Limits. In normal limits if we got a limit in 0/0 form we just used L'hopitals rule, is there something similar for multivariable limits? I can't find anything on google.

I need help with the question in the image, the correct answer is 0.5 but how do I get it? Also I'm very new to the topic so I'm sorry if the question is stupid lol.

b=-6

#

a= (/5

#

9/5

which works for f(5) but not for f(3)

chrome salmon
#

3 = 5a+b , -3 = 3a+b so we get a=3 , b=-12

amber spire
#

a^2 + b^2 = (a+b)^2-2ab how?

lone heartBOT
vale wigeon
#

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

amber spire
#

If i calculate a^2 + b^b then how can i get this?

amber spire
vale wigeon
#

subtract 2ab from both sides of that, and you get the equality you asked about.

amber spire
#

a^2 + b^2

We can write like ( a+b )^2 and after calculate, we get a^2 + 2ab + b^2.

vale wigeon
#

no, a^2 + b^2 is not equal to (a+b)^2.

amber spire
vale wigeon
#

distributive law

#

(a+b)^2 = (a+b)(a+b) = a*a + a*b + b*a + b*b

amber spire
#

Ok, got it, but where we get -2ab?

amber spire
vale wigeon
#

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
subtract 2ab from both sides of this

#

(a+b)^2 - 2ab = a^2 + 2ab + b^2 - 2ab

#

the +2ab and -2ab on the right cancel out

amber spire
#

My question is how we get 2ab?

vale wigeon
#

i thought you were asking how the negative 2ab comes about.

amber spire
#

after calculate a^2 + b^2 = a^2 +2ab+b^2

vale wigeon
#

and i am trying to answer the questions you ask

amber spire
vale wigeon
#

do you understand why (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2? yes or no

amber spire
#

yes

#

After multiply we got this.

vale wigeon
#

so then are you asking why i chose to subtract 2ab from both sides, as opposed to doing something else?

amber spire
vale wigeon
#

...

#

i think i'm talking to a brick wall

amber spire
#

I am sorry, i understand a little less

wild trail
#

Do you know how to calculate (a + b)^2 ?

amber spire
amber spire
pale kestrel
#

subtract

#

2ab

#

from

#

both sides

wild trail
#

Then just calculate (a + b)^2 - 2ab

#

ie calculate the square and then subtract 2ab

amber spire
#
  • 2ab where you got this?
pale kestrel
#

from the air.

#

But u subtract it from both sides

#

understood?

#

2ab

#

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab

(a+b)^2 - 2ab = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab - 2ab

(a+b)^2 - 2ab = a^2 + b^2

amber spire
pale kestrel
#

correct, that is what I am telling you.

#

Because thats what you asked...

#

if A = B

pale kestrel
#

notice B = A

winged sentinel
amber spire
pale kestrel
#

??????

#

I dont understand your query

thorn monolith
#

it should have been easier to notice you can isolate (a+b)² instead of typing that entire comment

pale kestrel
#

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

(a+b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab

(a+b)^2 - 2ab = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab - 2ab

(a+b)^2 - 2ab = a^2 + b^2

a^2 + b^2 = (a+b)^2 - 2ab

amber spire
pale kestrel
#

no

#

no no

thorn monolith
#

equation isnt only one way bruh

pale kestrel
#

Im saying if <something> = <something else>, then <something else> = <something>

#

if apple = banana, then banana = apple

amber spire
#

I can memorize it. a= b | b=a.

I am trying to prof it, how?

pale kestrel
#

???????

#

bruh what

vale wigeon
#

you are trying to prove that equality is symmetric...?

waxen rose
#

whats central tendency

vale wigeon
pale kestrel
#

So you understand what = is representing in math

thorn monolith
pale kestrel
#

its not assignment.

#

We are claiming 2 entities are equal

thorn monolith
#

not only way, you can also type "a" where you see "b"

amber spire
# pale kestrel bruh what

I can memorize it. a^2 + b^2 = (a+b)^2-2ab.

I want to prof this. to calculate a^2 + b^2. that is my goal.

pale kestrel
#

memorize what

pale kestrel
#

i use A and B earlier which is different

amber spire
pale kestrel
#

,tex \begin{align*}
(a+b)^2 &= a^2 + 2ab + b^2
\
(a+b)^2 &= a^2 + b^2 + 2ab
\
(a+b)^2 - 2ab &= a^2 + b^2 + 2ab - 2ab
\
(a+b)^2 - 2ab &= a^2 + b^2
\
a^2 + b^2 &= (a+b)^2 - 2ab
\end{align*}

ocean sealBOT
pale kestrel
#

Have you got an image editor

#

can u circle where the confusion is

#

or call them lines 1-5

#

and say which one to which one

amber spire
pale kestrel
#

lines 2 -> 3, we subtracted -2ab from both sides

#

If X = Y, then X - Z = Y - Z

amber spire
#

wait, let me explain.

#

(a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2

pale kestrel
#

yes...

amber spire
#

Now we are align, like (a + b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + 2ab, right?

pale kestrel
#

?????

#

oh

#

I am using the fact that the order of addition doesnt matter

#

X + Y + Z = X + Z + Y

amber spire
#

Ok, So here we are change the order just. nothing elase, right?

pale kestrel
#

yes... u can check it

#

to see

amber spire
#

Ok,

The next line ( a+b)^2 - 2ab , how?

pale kestrel
#

I am subtracting 2ab from both sides

#

If X = Y, then X - Z = Y - Z

amber spire
pale kestrel
#

3 = 5 - 2

#

yes?

amber spire
amber spire
pale kestrel
#

3 + 1 = (5 - 2) + 1

#

yes?

amber spire
#

yes

pale kestrel
#

I added 1 to both sides

#

and got something thats still true

#

You can add or subtract to do this

#

3 - 3 = (5 - 2) - 3

#

If X = Y, then X - Z = Y - Z

#

This is what im using

pale kestrel
#

we subtract 2ab from both sides

amber spire
#

Ok, let me understand.

I need help on question 5. I'm not sure what equation to use to find how fast the rope is stretching

steel spire
alpine sable
#

I have inf tries on it so don't worry

steel spire
#

So initially, we can use the pythagorean theorem to determine the length (hypotenuse of the imaginary right angle triangle"

alpine sable
#

yeah

steel spire
#

If your position (the runner) is at 7.4m and you were going 2m/s how many seconds did it take for you to reach 7.4m?

alpine sable
#

3.7

steel spire
#

yup

alpine sable
#

my friend is 11.1

steel spire
#

assuming you and the air ballon started moving at the same time

#

yup exactly

#

and if you use the pythagorean theorem whats the length of the triangle?

alpine sable
#

13.34

steel spire
#

nice

#

so we got a length of 13.34m in 3.7 seconds

#

is there anyway to manipulate this so that in turns into x m/s

alpine sable
#

so just into per second?

steel spire
#

hint: 13.34 | 3.7

alpine sable
#

13.34/3.7=x/1?

steel spire
#

well it would be better if you divide both sides by 3.7

#

if you divide 3.7 by 3.7 that is 1

#

13.34/3.7 = 3.61

alpine sable
#

3.61

#

yeah

#

i just got that too

steel spire
#

3.61 m/s

alpine sable
#

ahhh

#

okay i see

#

thank you

steel spire
#

np

#

its the same case with the next question

#

i think

alpine sable
#

yup

#

i can try and submit the answer to see

steel spire
#

if im wrong im sorry

alpine sable
#

nah i have inf tries

#

so it dont matter

#

but im trying to learn and get perf score

steel spire
#

👍

#

goodluck!

alpine sable
#

ty

#

for helping

#

have a great day

steel spire
#

np. You too!

feral sonnet
#

Hello I have a few questions about my geometry work

feral sonnet
#

First i’m trying to find the area of a trapezoid without the height

neon thicket
#

post the question or image

feral sonnet
#

I sent it but it wouldn’t send

#

one moment

#

So the question is “ what is the area of a trapezoid in square units

#

All I know is Top base is 27 Bottom base is 37 and the Left side is 13

lone heartBOT
#

@feral sonnet Has your question been resolved?

@feral sonnet Has your question been resolved?

hazy ferry
#

you need to find out the green length first, then you can calculate the height with pythagorean theorem

#

and then you can use this

teal dust
#

i need help on this page

narrow plank
#

anyone know the answer?

feral sonnet
#

because I don’t know any other variables

#

all i know is it’s a right triangle with hyp that is 13

#

also it doesn’t say that they are congruent to eachother

vital wedge
#

ok so

#

first u would have to obtain

#

the height of the trapezoid

hazy ferry
#

and the red one is 27

How do I use Euler's Totient Theorem to calculate 3^103 mod 1000?

vapid shuttle
#

carefully

north hemlock
#

oh god

vapid shuttle
north hemlock
#

fr

#

the worst part is that 103 is prime :)

#

wait so like $3^{103} \text{ mod } 1000 \equiv a^{103 \text{ mod } \phi(1000)} \text{ mod } 1000$

#

and uh

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

from here....

#

103 mod 400??

#

oh

#

1000 = 8 * 125 so

#

hm

#

yeah not sure

#

,calc 400(103)

ocean sealBOT
#

Result:

41200
alpine sable
#

So Euler's totient theorem states that $a^{\phi(n)}\equiv 1\left(\mod{n}\right)$

ocean sealBOT
#

Labyrinth

alpine sable
#

Meaning that $a^{103}a^{\phi(1000)}\equiv a^{103}\left(\mod{1000}\right)$

ocean sealBOT
#

Labyrinth

north hemlock
#

oh right

#

I see

alpine sable
#

I hate that space after the left parentheses askjdaklsdja

#

$\left(!\mod{1000}\right)$

#

Cruel world

north hemlock
#

and then $\phi(1000)$ is $\phi(4)\phi(125) = \phi(4)\phi(25)\phi(5) = \phi(5)^3 \phi(4) = 2(4)^3$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

,calc 4^3

ocean sealBOT
#

Result:

64
north hemlock
#

128?

#

wait a sec

#

that's not right

#

oh wait they need to be coprime for me to just keep doing tht

#

so just $\phi(4) * \phi(125)$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

which would be...

#

200?

#

wait but $\phi(1000) = 400 \neq 200$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

o lol 125 times 8 is 1000, not 4

#

okay so 400

#

so I just need to do 3^503

alpine sable
#

Alright so I calculated the result using another method just so we can double check

alpine sable
north hemlock
#

we get that $3^{103}a^{\phi(1000)} = 3^{103}a^{\phi(8)\phi(125)} \equiv 3^{103} \text{ mod } 1000$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

so then $3^{103}a^{\phi(8)\phi(125)} = 3^{103}3^{400} = 3^{503} \equiv 3^{103}\mod 1000$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

alpine sable
#

Yeah I'm starting to feel stupid

north hemlock
#

huh?

alpine sable
#

...Does that look like progress to you?

#

I feel like I just found a way to get further from the answer

north hemlock
#

well we have that our problem simplifies to 3^503

#

as for the value of that.... no clue

alpine sable
#

I don't know at which step you got rid of the mod 1000

#

It's still 3^503 mod 1000

north hemlock
#

oh shit

#

wait

#

we have this

#

so

alpine sable
#

Yes

north hemlock
#

on the LHS we get a^503

alpine sable
#

Are you trying to do it the other way around like I was thinking of doing?

north hemlock
#

I'm just following what u wrote above

#

bc a = 3

alpine sable
#

I meant to write 3^103 but yea

north hemlock
#

and phi(1000) = 400

#

so the LHS is just 3^503 after u combine them

alpine sable
#

Actually it's anything*(anything else)^phi(1000)==anything(mod 1000)

#

Which is even more powerful

north hemlock
#

yes

#

but in our case a=3, and then we get 3^503?

alpine sable
#

Yeah

north hemlock
#

ok ye

#

is that the solution u got doing it another way?

#

also is the other way CRT?

alpine sable
north hemlock
#

chinese remainder theorem

alpine sable
#

Eh, probably, I embarassingly don't remembeer the CRT

#

I implemented a binary recursive algorithm if that makes sense

north hemlock
#

interesting

#

so u bruteforced it

#

?

alpine sable
#

No, I implemented a binary recursive algorithm...

#

Well bruteforce is subjective but that doesn't seem like bruteforce to me

north hemlock
#

to calculate $3^{103} \mod 1000$

ocean sealBOT
#

Juke | ping me if no response

north hemlock
#

wait

alpine sable
#
def calculate(pow):
     if pow == 1:
             return 3
     else:
             return (calculate(pow//2)*calculate(pow-pow//2))%1000
north hemlock
#

did u end up with a nice number?

alpine sable
#

Yep

north hemlock
#

..

#

so def not 3^503

#

shit

alpine sable
#

3^503 is bigger than 1000

#

fun fact

#

Literally could not have been it

#

Although, as expected, it has the same remainder mod 1000

north hemlock
#

uhm

#

basically then

#

I've backtracked

alpine sable
#

Okay so there's a fact I learned from looking at the solution
