What does he mean by pointing u to poly and t(u) to vector

alpine sable
#

it's telling you that u+v is a poly

#

and T(u) is a vector

limpid lotus
#

Oh yes

is 1/4?

last ether
#

Yes

rotund crater
#

b-a/n = 8-2/n =6/n
6/24 = 1/4

#

?

last ether
#

Well it's just the length of the interval divided by how many parts you want

rotund crater

#

Yeah

i can code this but i have no idea what its even asking of me, when i send back a polynomial, how do i determine the coefficients, i simply don't understand the question

tacit arch
#

$xy = x^1 y^1$

ocean sealBOT
#

riemann

normal jasper
#

i don't understand your point

#

im just confused on why a(4,2) is =2 and why the others not stated are 0, it can't be arbitrary...

tacit arch
#

the 1, 1 in a(1, 1) correspond to the powers of x and y

tacit arch
tacit arch
normal jasper
#

yea i can see that, but when im creating the program i dont get how im supposed to determine the coefficients

tacit arch
#

if you understand the math but don't understand how to code it, i suggest CS server in #old-network

normal jasper
#

i dont understand the math

#

why is a(4,2)=2, a(0,3)=1

tacit arch
normal jasper
#

2..

tacit arch
normal jasper
#

4 and 2

tacit arch
#

that's what a(i, j) x^i y^j means

#

for i=4 and j=2

normal jasper
#

yes i know but in a general case when im considering n degree, how are they computing that a(4,2) = 2 and determining that the rest are 0, it can't just be arbitrary right?

tacit arch
#

i, j

tacit arch
#

you "read off the coefficients"

normal jasper
#

its the coefficient because its' the coefficient?

tacit arch
#

yes when the same word is used in different places, they refer to the same thing

I don't know that are the steps to do this problem.

#

<@&286206848099549185>

waxen flame
#

What have you tried?

lone heartBOT
#

@pale scroll Has your question been resolved?

pale scroll
#

Stuck there

waxen flame
#

Recall that you are calculating a semicircle. What is the area for a semicircle?

pale scroll
#

1/2(pi r^2)

waxen flame
#

So how should you change the integral?

#

Let's try to understand what the question is asking you.

i have another questio

waxen flame
#

.reopen

lone heartBOT
#

waxen flame
#

What's your question?

pale scroll
#

and that would be -2cos(2x)?

waxen flame
#

No.

slender quiver
#

!show

lone heartBOT
#

Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.

waxen flame
#

How did you get that answer?

pale scroll
#

i just guest

#

calc is not my thing

waxen flame
#

Do you understand how integrals work?

pale scroll
#

the derivative of sin is cos, but after that, im stuck

waxen flame
#

Do you understand how integrals work?

pale scroll
#

f(a)-f(b)/b-a , that the formula?

waxen flame
#

I mispoke.

#

The change in a function between the points a and b, where b is greater than a, can be calculated using this expression, f(b) - f(a).

#

Does that make sense?

pale scroll
#

yes

waxen flame
#

To use an example, no matter how to get between those two points, the change in f(b) - f(a) will always be the same.

#

No matter how we change that curve, move it up or move it down, if it starts at point A and ends at point B, Δy will always have the same value.

#

This is a major premise behind integrals. If we add all the little changes that occur between points A and point B will always result in the function ending at point B.

#

The function of that graph is the antiderivative of f(x) = -x*(x-4).

#

The sum of every value on the blue line, ie. the area, represents the total change that occurs in the black line.

#

This gives us the equation

#

$\int_{a}^{b} f(x) dx = F(b) - F(a)$

ocean sealBOT
#

Kookiemon

waxen flame
#

Where F(x) is the antiderivative of f(x).

#

Does that make sense?

pale scroll
#

yes

waxen flame
#

Now, the question is asking about the derivative of an integral.

#

Which in effect is the derivative of F(b) - F(a).

#

Which we know is f(x).

pale scroll
#

this problem is a a volumes of solid of revolution?

waxen flame
#

Yes, but not a full revolution, only a half revolution because it asked about a semicircle.

#

The base of the semicircle is given as a slice of the region R that is perpendicular to the x-axis.

#

The base of the semicircle is represented by the black line segment and is the diameter of the semicircle. You have to imagine the semicircle projecting out away from the screen.

pale scroll
#

so I should use (pi r^2)/2 dy?

waxen flame
#

Yes, and you would have to account for the radius as well.

#

You are given a diameter as 2x - x^2, however the radius is half of that.

pale scroll
#

should I solve 2x-x^2 and then divide the result by two?

waxen flame
#

Yes, that will give you the radius, r.

pale scroll
#

do I substitute x with something?

#

with 0 and 4?

waxen flame
#

This will give you a full revolution.

#

But you only want half of that.

#

This will help you visualize what you are trying to calculate.

pale scroll
#

Thank you

Hello can someone help me with question 2(b)

royal depot
#

alright so first of all

#

think about which values would fit into that statement

#

|x|+3x>1

#

for example, |(2)|+3(2)>1 because 2+3*2=2+6=8 so that point would be shaded

#

and 8>1

#

a hint is to find the value equal to |x|+3x>1

**[Matrices and Eigenvectors] Having difficulty getting an Eigenvector for the matrix [1, 1; -1 1]
**
Here's what I have done so far

When I have tried to solve for eigenvectors, no matter which component of the Eigenvector I kept as constant, the eigenvalue would have been the same, but for the second eigenvalue [1-i] of the vector [1, 1; -1 1], this isn't true.

If I choose x_2 as constant, I would get Eigenvector to be X = [1; i]
But, if I choose x_1 to be constant, I would get the Eigenvector to be X = [1; -i]

My professor told me, that this won't happen (not for this particular problem but generally)

So my questions

  1. Which Eigenvector should I choose and why?
  2. Why are the Eigenvectors different?

I ran a python program on this and I got this result But, obviously, that doesn't solve my problem.

Much Thankful for your help

@halcyon monolith Has your question been resolved?

halcyon monolith
#

<@&286206848099549185>

gleaming ridge
#
  1. You don't need to choose any of them
#

Because they are both false

#

Your second eigenvector must be X2 = [i ; 1] k

#

And the right answer is of course "d" !

halcyon monolith
#

Please explain if possible.

gleaming ridge
#

I didn't understand it either xD

#

But if I were you, I wouldn't even bother to compute the second eigenvector!

#

It has been proved that if L1 and L2 are the eigenvalues of a 2x2 marix, and that they are complex conjugates

#

Then their respective eigenvectors must also be complex conjugates

#

You computed X1 without any problems, that is good

#

Then just obtain X2 as: X2 = X1*= [i ; 1] k

If t is in quadrant II and sint=1/6, what is cos2t?
I got 10/12 and just wanted to make sure if I got the right answer

tacit arch
#

,tex .double angle

ocean sealBOT
#

riemann

tacit arch
#

Did you use one of those first 3

atomic jewel
#

I used the cos(2) formula

gray isle
#

show work

atomic jewel
#

kk

tacit arch
#

cosine is negative in the second quadrant so that part's wrong at least

gray isle
#

cos(t) is neg, doesn't mean cos(2t) is neg

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

(1/6)^2 isn't 1/12

atomic jewel
#

it isnt?

gray isle
#

what makes you think it is

atomic jewel
#

oh wait

#

I'm silly

#

it's 36

#

LMFAO

#

Bleh I got so excited that I made a mistake

vale wigeon
#

(1/6)^2 is not 36

atomic jewel
#

1/36

#

is what I meant

vale wigeon
#

it may be what you meant but it wasn't what you said.

atomic jewel
#

ik, I'm sorry

#

is this correct?

gray isle
#

result can be simplified

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

what by 2

atomic jewel
#

the result

#

34/36

#

when I simplified it by 2 I got 17/18

vale wigeon
#

⚠️ but yes, 34/36 = 17/18

atomic jewel
#

ah ok

#

and I also had a question about this other problem

#

"If t is in quadrant III and cost = - 1/5, what is sin(t/2)?"

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

no,

#

recognise that the question is flawed an raise the issue with whoever gave it to you

atomic jewel
#

It

#

is?

gray isle
#

is cos positive or negative in Q3?

atomic jewel
#

negative since quadrant 3 is the bottom left square

#

OH

#

I'm so sorry I forgot to add the negative

#

ty for pointing that out

livid patrol
#

do i need to like open a ticket or something for help or do i just send stuff i need help witth?

gray isle
#

there are half angle identities

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

you

tacit arch
#

,tex .half angle

ocean sealBOT
#

riemann

atomic jewel
#

oh ok

#

so I'd use Cos(0/2)

#

for this one

#

*Sin(0/2)

gray isle
#

NEVER use 0 as a substitute for theta

atomic jewel
#

Idk how else to put theta onto keyboard

#

so I just used it to substitute theta in the text

gray isle
#

could just use t

#

or any other variable that isn't already presently defined

atomic jewel
#

ah ok

#

so would I use Sin(t/2) to solve this equation?

#

or

#

would I got about it with a different formula?

#

@gray isle

lone heartBOT
#

@atomic jewel Has your question been resolved?

gray isle
#

you're interested in sin(t/2)
and are given cos(t)
so you use the one that has those

atomic jewel
#

ah ok

gray isle
#

no excuse for using 0 for theta when writing on paper

#

-1/5 isn't 1/5

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

how are you doing this

#

sure 1 = 5/5

#

but why did (-1/5) get changed to 1/5

#

and also the sqrt should be clearly over the whole fraction, not just the numerator

atomic jewel
#

turn it positive

gray isle
#

but why do you still have the - there

#

-(-1/5) = 1/5
not -1/5

#

a - (-b) = a + b

atomic jewel
#

oh damn you're right

gray isle
#

as for second issue

and also the sqrt should be clearly over the whole fraction, not just the numerator

#

and then choose the appropriate sign based on the location of t/2

atomic jewel
#

over the whole thing?

gray isle
#

no

#

why are you squaring stuff

atomic jewel
#

you said sqrt?

gray isle
#

yeh.

#

but square and square root are NOT the same

atomic jewel
#

oh my b

#

I thought u meant squared

gray isle
#

^2 is indicating the raising to the power of 2 (squaring, is not the same as square rooting)

#

as indicated in the identity, the radical covers the whole fraction

#

square root

atomic jewel
#

so it would be like this?

gray isle
#

they way you're writing still isn't clear enough

#

ideally you'd also have () when you have skyscraper fractions

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

you should pretty much be able to form a box enclosing the radicand if you were to draw those vertical/horizontal red lines
as for the issue with skyscraper fractions, use parentheses as I've done.
it isn't necessary if the lengths are distinct enough by makes it easier to read regardless

atomic jewel
#

ohhh

#

that makes sense

#

and so would I divide 6/5 by 2?

gray isle
gray isle
atomic jewel
#

alr

#

so it would be sqrt 3/5?

gray isle
#

use () to clearly indicate what's being rooted

#

similar notation issue to the above

#

sqrt(3/5)

#

and then choose the appropriate sign based on the location of t/2

atomic jewel
atomic jewel
#

oh wait would I put 3/5 in ()?

gray isle
#

if you're communicating in plain text

#

writing properly on paper above like that, parentheses aren't needed

atomic jewel
#

oh pog

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

and then choose the appropriate sign based on the location of t/2
did you do the work related to that?
to see whether you should have sqrt(3/5) or -sqrt(3/5)

atomic jewel
#

How would I go about that?

gray isle
#

consider what interval theta is in

#

and from there get the interval theta/2 is in

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

you are told theta is in Q3 right?

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

what angles are in that quadrant

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

yeh

#

180° < theta < 270°
what does that tell you about theta/2

atomic jewel
gray isle
#

no

#

that's theta

#

i'm asking about theta/2

atomic jewel
#

it's the same but negative?

gray isle
#

no

#

don't overthink what i'm asking

#

$180\deg < \theta < 270\deg
\implies ? < \frac{\theta}{2} < ?$

ocean sealBOT
#

ℝamonov

atomic jewel
#

Im so lost

vale wigeon
#

would you like to be asked the same question but in different words?

atomic jewel
#

yeah I think that would help

vale wigeon
#

Mary says, "I have somewhere between $180 and $270 in my wallet."
John says, "I have exactly half as much money as Mary does."

what can you say about the contents of John's wallet?

atomic jewel
#

john has half the money mary does

vale wigeon
#

... that is just restating the problem

#

so not really what i was looking for here...

#

john has between ___ and ___ dollars

#

can you fill the blanks here

atomic jewel
#

john has between 90 and 135 dollars

vale wigeon
#

ok

#

so you do understand this basic algebra

#

$180\dg < \theta < 270\dg \implies 90\dg < \theta/2 < 135\dg$

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

does this make sense to you now

atomic jewel
#

yep!

#

looks like I learned another thing today

#

can I try the same problem but switch up the numbers to see if I got it?

vale wigeon
#

uh yeah sure but tell us the problem w/ the switched-up numbers so we are on the same page

atomic jewel
#

kk!

#

If t is in quadrant II and sint= 1/8, what is cos2t?

vale wigeon
#

k

gray isle
#

um

#

sin isn't neg in Q2

#

fix the question

vale wigeon
#

wasn't sin(t) positive 1/8 just a few secs ago

#

why'd you go and fuck it up

atomic jewel
#

IM SORRY 😭

#

oh wait

#

wrong problem

#

"If t is in quadrant III and cost = - 1/8, what is sin(t/2)?"

#

meant to switch this up

#

I got sqrt(3/8)

vale wigeon
#

sqrt(3/8) looks incorrect to me.

#

can you show your work?

atomic jewel
#

this is my 2nd attempt

vale wigeon
#

your work is once again poorly written

#

ramonov already pointed out the issues with how you write your radical symbols

#

they're just hanging there like something hastily slapped on

atomic jewel
#

I'll make them better

#

is this better?

vale wigeon
#

not really

atomic jewel
#

MAN

vale wigeon
#

the skyscraper fraction is still meh

#

probably better to write it as $\frac{9/8}{2}$

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

from a typesetting perspective

atomic jewel
#

wait

#

ohhhhh

vale wigeon
#

sqrt((9/8)/2) is correct but what did you do afterward?

#

any mistakes you make from this point on are arithmetical and NOT trigonometric in nature

atomic jewel
vale wigeon
#

??

#

do you have any written work to show for how you did the calculation

#

or did you try to do it all in your head

atomic jewel
vale wigeon
#

don't.

atomic jewel
vale wigeon
#

...

#

communication breakdown!

#

okay, let me try again.

#

you say that your final answer is sqrt(3/8). is that or is that not the case?

atomic jewel
#

No

vale wigeon
#

okay then what answer did you get?

atomic jewel
#

the second attempt I'm currently at 9/8 / 2

vale wigeon
#

the square root got thanos'd

#

also spacing is not a substitute for parentheses

atomic jewel
#

sqrt(9/8) / 2

vale wigeon
#

...

#

no

#

sqrt((9/8)/2) is where you should be.

atomic jewel
#

I think we're at the same conclusion

#

but I'm just typing it very wrong

vale wigeon
#

sure are.

#

and still

#

sqrt((9/8)/2) can and should be simplified

atomic jewel
#

how would I simplify that?

vale wigeon
#

well

#

simplify the fraction inside the root first

#

do you know how to divide fractions in general?

atomic jewel
#

not a fraction like this

vale wigeon
#

what if it was (9/8)/(2/1) instead?

atomic jewel
#

9/16

vale wigeon
#

okay great

#

now can you simplify sqrt(9/16)?

atomic jewel
#

would it just be 9/16 ?

vale wigeon
#

no

#

the square root of a number, with exactly two exceptions, is not equal to the number itself!

#

sqrt(9/16) = sqrt(9)/sqrt(16) = 3/4...

atomic jewel
#

OH

#

FUCK

vale wigeon
#

this was self-studying you were doing, right?

atomic jewel
#

IM SILLY

#

yeah

vale wigeon
#

yeah okay so

#

you need to self study basic arithmetic and algebra

#

fractions

#

roots

#

all that shit

#

right now you are struggling with them way too much to be doing trig

atomic jewel
#

ty for the help!

#

I also think I started struggling because i've been studying all day and it's currently 3am for me

#

I'm usually a lot better at this stuff

#

but I'm just exhausted rn

#

that being said

#

@vale wigeon ty for the help today!

#

really appreciate it

#

when I'm well rested, I'll go over some stuff I learned here

#

not sure how this linear transformation would work

wraith flint
#

i think b is an element of r^3

#

given the transformation matrix is the indentity matrix the linear transformation should be going from R^3 to R^3

#

but T being an element of R^4 just confuses me

how do I go about finding m and b?

lone heartBOT
silent plume
#

m and b being the last two boxes respectively

gray isle
#

think about what you can do with the derivative you just found

silent plume
#

hmmmm

#

I can substitute x or y from the coordinates into the equation

#

the derivative is the slope of the curve, no?

#

I tried substituting x in y' with 0.0016 but it says that was wrong

gray isle
#

why are you subbing x with 0.0016

silent plume
#

sorry I meant 2

gray isle
#

show the work you're doing

silent plume
#

-10 / (5(2) +15)^3 = -0.00064

#

oh I forgot to input the negative in the answer

#

to find b I'll do 0.0016 = -0.00064(2) + b

#
  • -0.00064(2)

b = 0.00288

pale scroll
#

can someone help me with this one

alpine sable
#

think about what 'at rest' means

pale scroll
#

0

alpine sable
#

what is 0?

pale scroll
#

a(t)=0, its correct?

alpine sable
#

a means acceleration?

#

0 acceleration means constant velocity

#

recall that velocity is the derivative of displacement, and acceleration is the derivative of velocity

pale scroll
#

so it would be v(t)=0

alpine sable
#

yes

restive chasm
#

I think the answer could be either v (t) = 0 for complete rest and v(t) changes sign for momentarily rest. So both correct.

pale scroll

that would be the second option<

alpine sable

I've got this one question in math. It's really simple, I've just been not listening to classes so I don't really know how to solve it.
Basically, it goes something like this:
There is a right angled triangle ABC with these lengths: 9cm, 12cm and 15cm.
A. What is the area of this triangle?
I answered this one easily, I just did 12cm x 9cm and divide that by 2, and it came out to be 54cm.
B. Find the "other height". I've got no idea what an "other height" is, and I don't know how to calculate it. Someone help

alpine sable
#

yea i think thats the other height or wtver its called

#

no idea how to solve it

#

@stray night

#

use the area formula and rearrange for height

alpine sable
#

use base = AB

#

so AB is 15

#

and uhh

#

idk bro im dumb asf

#

@alpine sable

alpine sable
#

purple is your height, AB is 15

#

you've found the area in part A

ornate leaf
#

the triangle formula =
base * area / 2 = area
the purple line is the height you want, and the corresponding base is c, so you can just subsitute it back in

alpine sable
#

so 15 x (54 / 2 = 27) = 405

#

cus 15 = base and area is 54

There's splitting into cases/brute force but could there be a nicer way to calculate:

A 52 playing card deck has 37 cards left. There are 2 Aces in these 37 cards.
Amongst these 37 cards and 8 other cards not in the deck (= 45), there are 2 9's.

We draw 2 cards from these remaining 37 cards. What is the probability at least one Ace or 9 is drawn?

pale kestrel
#

Looking for suggestions for approaches you'd take - I can't think of anything 'obvious', it looks annoying to calculate.

worn fox
#

1 - P(you dont draw an ace or a 9)?

pale kestrel
#

sure, of course, so the hard part of the problem is calculating P(no A or 9, drawing 1 card from 37) and then the same for 36

worn fox
#

oh is the issue here that you dont know where the 9's are

pale kestrel
#

Yes, so they can be among those 8 other cards as well.

#

Oh actually maybe its not as ugly as I thought

worn fox
#

it does seem like cases on where the 9s could be is your best bet

pale kestrel
#

35/37 * 43/45 I think this works actually?

#

I was thinking combinatorically before rather than just probabilities

#

So I reckon the final answer is 1 - (35/37 * 43/45) * (34/36 * 42/44)

#

,calc 1 - (35/37 * 43/45) (34/36 * 42/44)

ocean sealBOT
#

Result:

0.18511693511694
pale kestrel
#

That working look right? Thonk

worn fox
#

im not seeing the cases in your work

#

there should be 3 cases: both 9s in the 37, one 9 in the 37, no 9s in the 37

pale kestrel
#

I was thinking you could combine them, maybe im missing something

#

I was thinking you have:

#

37 cards
8 cards

2 9's in there somewhere

#

======
Probability of not drawing a 9 from the 37 card deck = 43/45 ?

worn fox
pale kestrel
#

But you basically are aren't you?

#

I mean sure, we can go chop it into the cases, but I think we end up with the same answer

worn fox
#

lemme check

pale kestrel
#

monke that looks really annoying haha

#

45 choose 37 is your space

#

and ig you just count

#

43 choose 35, 43 choose 36, 43 choose 37

eh yeah something fucky with my reasoning i get negative prob

"Probability of no A or 9 from a single draw"

#

uhhhhhhhhhhhhh these should be independent right Thonk

#

justifying 35/37 * 43/45 multiplied

#

no wait maybe not

#

gah

#

brain

chrome salmon
#

Don't worry

pale kestrel
#

yeah you cant both draw an A and 9 in a single draw

#

not independent

#

damn that is hella annoying.

#

how does one do math again giggle

#

I think I need to approach this by considering the 45 card deck at all times...

chrome salmon
#

What are the three cases you made

pale kestrel
#

Yeah I can also do that I guess

#

I was originally hoping to get this done without chopping into cases

#

0 1 or 2, 9's in the 37 deck are the 3 cases

chrome salmon
#

It's atleast one ace or atleast one 9

pale kestrel
#

,w (4/37) * ((43 choose 35) / (45 choose 37)) + (3/37) * 2 * ((43 choose 36) / (45 choose 37)) + (2/37) * ((43 choose 37) / (45 choose 37))

chrome salmon
#

(37C1) is number of ways to get at least one ace righ

pale kestrel
#

not sure what u mean

chrome salmon
#

In how many ways can you get at least one ace

pale kestrel
#

Which part of the problem are you referring to

#

in one draw from the 37 card deck?

#

i mean, 2 cards in there are definitely an ace

#

so i guess.... 2 ways???

chrome salmon
pale kestrel
#

i mean you can get it on either or both

#

so 3?

chrome salmon
#

Not 37C1?

pale kestrel
#

or also counting the distinct aces?

#

im confused where you're coming from with this

chrome salmon
#

No distinction

chrome salmon
pale kestrel
#

im about to i think

chrome salmon
pale kestrel
#

,w 1 - ((33/37) * ((43 choose 35) / (45 choose 37)) + (34/37) * 2 * ((43 choose 36) / (45 choose 37)) + (35/37) * ((43 choose 37) / (45 choose 37))) * ((33/37) * ((42 choose 34) / (44 choose 36)) + (34/37) * 2 * ((42 choose 35) / (44 choose 36)) + (35/37) * ((42 choose 35) / (44 choose 36)))

bruh that exceeds max chars on wolfram, u kidding me

chrome salmon
#

,w ((50 choose 35)(37 choose 1)+(51 choose 36)(36 choose 1))/((52 choose 37)(37 choose 2))

pale kestrel
#

omg thats hella annoying, how do i calculate this Xd

chrome salmon
#

Alright

#

We got it shuri

pale kestrel
#

the final answer should be approximately 20%

I don't understand your reasoning though, could u explain it once uve corrected

corrected something but not sure if theres more

k reckon this is the final answer

No wait derp

#

guh still wrong, misthought the idea

#

Think I see your point. I have to split the overall situation into 3 cases

#

Not each draw into 3 cases. Cant assume independence

#

The entire problem lacks independence a lot

How to solve this guys

raven rover
#

What have you tried?

gentle osprey
#

Limits
I just simply put the numerator into 2 + 3 sinx/x and denominator into 5 - cosx/x
Since sinx/x =1
2 +3(1) for the numerator but for the denominator i don't know how to simplify further.

brave kayak
#

is it even asking for simplification?

#

i would sub a really large number for x and prove its value

naive valley
#

sinx/x approaches something even nicer when x->inf, and so does cosx/x

gentle osprey
raven rover
#

As x -> infinity, what do sin x, cos x, and x approach?

brave kayak
#

sin(x)/x approaches 0 from the negative

#

cos(x)/x also approaches 0

#

it would be 2/5

#

since the sin(x)/x and cos(x)/x approach 0 as x approaches infinity

naive valley
brave kayak
#

if you sub in a large number for x, you get a negligible negative number

naive valley
#

,w plot sin(x)/x from -1000 to 1000

naive valley
#

for positive x, sin(x)/x has the same sign as sin(x), which oscillates all the way to infty

#

doesn't really matter for this problem, just a side note

gentle osprey
#

Ok

vague coral
#

as x approaches infinity sin(x) << x, same for cos(x)

#

so the limit should be 2/5

brave kayak
#

yeah my problem is that no matter the number i put for x i always get a negative in sin(x)/x

naive valley
#

oh wait, you want a positive

brave kayak
#

yes

naive valley
#

try x = +pi/2 + 1000000pi

#

or +pi/2 plus any multiple of 2pi

brave kayak
#

wait we are dealing in radians?

naive valley
#

yea, we are math people not schoolchildren haha

#

radians or go home

#

j/k, if degrees then you can use 90 + any integer multiple of 360

brave kayak
#

no but for degrees no matter how big x is it is a negative

naive valley
#
>> x = 90 + 1000*360;
>> sind(x)/x
ans =
      2.77708350690105e-06

woeful parcel
#

hey, am struggling with this problem, i tried to used vertex formula to find the a but i cant since i dont know what b is

woeful parcel
#

i know the leading coefficent is going to be negative due to the intersections

lone heartBOT
#

@woeful parcel Has your question been resolved?

woeful parcel
#

@crisp iron

#

<@&286206848099549185>

queen river
#

you find the formula first

#

using completing square

#

because you know the vertex

#

like this

#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
woeful parcel
#

ok, how do you solve for a then or for n

queen river
#

youve learnt product of root

#

right

woeful parcel
#

whatst hat

#

whats that

queen river
#

em

#

Sum and product of roots

#

like

#

x1+x2=-b/a

#

x1x2=c/a

woeful parcel
#

nope

queen river
#

fine

#

some complicated mehtod then

#

Lets sub -1 or 3 to the equation

brave kayak
#

do simultaneous equations with the three variables

#

x=1, x=-1 and x=3

#

it'll take a bit

woeful parcel
#

i dont know what this is

queen river
#

oh god

#

i think product of root will be the easiest method

#

Anyway

queen river
woeful parcel
#

the answer to the question

#

i dont know how to get this

queen river
#

ok

queen river
#

Then we sub -1 to the equation

#

like this

#

then find a b c

#

should be y=

violet flare
#

hey

lone heartBOT
violet flare
#

here just for a logic check not a question specifically

#

If I had the word "zajak" (case is irrelevant) and i wanted to find the number of unique combinations of the letters in the word when 'z' is always first and 'k' is always last

#

would it be $\frac{3!}{2!}$

ocean sealBOT
median oar
#

Yes, but why have you chosen 3!/2!

violet flare
#

as the z and k become irrelevant and 3! encompasses the cardinality of the letter set a,j,a and 2! is there to get rid of the non-unique combination of the a's

median oar
#

Good

violet flare
#

is that correct though

median oar
#

Semantically wrong I’d say

#

You could think of it as 3 slots choose 2 for the places of a, or 3 slots choose 1 for the place of j

#

3C1 and 3C2 represents those 2 ways of thinking

violet flare
#

Ah ok

median oar
#

And you get 3!/(1!(3-1)!) = 3!/(1!2!) = 3!/2!

#

Or you get 3!/(2!(3-2)!) = 3!/(2!1!) = 3!/2!

violet flare
#

ah i see

#

but is the logic there

median oar
#

Yes

#

You should also notice there are 1! Ways to arrange the j

#

There’s 2! Ways to arrange the a’s amongst themselves that’s why you divide by 2!

#

But you technically also divide by 1!

#

Suppose the word was zajjak

#

You’d instead get 4!/(2!2!)

violet flare
#

ah i see

#

ok very cool

#

thank you, much appreciated

hollow thicket
lone heartBOT
hollow thicket
#

getting a bit confused on how to solve the transformations

queen river
#

form g(x) to g(4x-3)

#

you know

#

first change from g(x) to g(4x) means

#

the graph contract by 1/4 time the original along the x axis

#

then g(4x) to g(4x-3)

#

which means the graph translated rightward by 3 units

#

second one will be like

hollow thicket
queen river
#

yes

hollow thicket
#

wait would it be 3/4 units though

#

rightward

queen river
#

No

#

After that

#

first contract

#

after that move rightward

#

the second one is like

#

from x^2 to x^2+ 2x

hollow thicket
#

mhm

queen river
#

change gx

#

to be (x+1)^2-1

#

Lets say y=p(x)

#

change from p(x) to p(x+1)-1

#

right?

#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
hollow thicket
#

oh yeah understandable

queen river
#

ok

#

change from p(x) to p(x+1) means translate leftward by 1 unit

#

change from p(x+1) to p(x+1)-1 means translate downward by 1 unit

#

,w plot x^2

ocean sealBOT
queen river
#

,w plot x^2 + 2x

ocean sealBOT
queen river
#

leftward by 1 and downward by 1

#

done

hollow thicket
queen river
#

No problem!

hollow thicket
queen river
#

what?

hollow thicket
#

in regards to b) the answer is this

queen river
#

Let me see

#

Only when translate the graph first

hollow thicket
#

i was thinkuing because the image of x:
x' = 4x -3
x = x'/4 + 3/4

hollow thicket
#

do it depends whcih transformation goes first

queen river
#

yes
