do you see what i've done?
Hm
This identity stuff is really confusing to me
it's annoying at first, but you'll get used to it
just think of the identity are true statements
so you can just modify the identity (if needed) and it would still be true
I still don’t know what to do with this I think
You just replace $\cos(90^{\circ}-\theta)$ to $\sin\theta$.
gekka
that's what it's trying to explain
what about that?
Is that the identity or something
the statement you posted isnt an identity
but you can use one of the existing identity to replace one of them
correct
this should explain about those identity
sin(80) = sin(90-theta)?
This is what I get after subbing the identity in
from this?
From here
I subbed in sin(90-theta) for cos
so that would be cos theta = cos theta
which is true
But I don’t think it gets me anywhere
because you are looking at the identity itself
you are not focusing on the problem
,align \tan22^{\circ}&=\cot(90-y)^{\circ}\&=\tan y^{\circ}\y&=22^{\circ}
So original problem is sin80=cos(90-x)
mhm
i don’t see anything to sub in
gekka
you can sub in cos(90-x) with sin(x)
gekka
^^identity
So I’m supposed to get rid of the sin80
okay lemme explain what are identities
imagine you have a $20 bill
because $20 is also 4 $5 bill
you can replace that $20 bill with 4 $5 bill
and it still is $20 bill
you are just simply replacing stuff with the identity
Yeah
gekka
Yeah
but we know that $\cos(90-x)$ is technically $\sin(x)$
gekka
because of the identity
so we can just simply replace $\cos(90-x)$ with $\sin(x)$ in that equation
gekka
so this would become $\sin80=\sin x$
gekka
Ah
that makes sense
correct
bingo!

im lost at finding the value of the left endpoint
when you say left endpoint do you mean an endpoint value or the whole Riemann sum
left endpoint riemann sum
is it 0.5 * all the rectange heights?
0.5 is the width
the heights are determined by the value of f(x)
You don’t need the value for f(6) here but for every other value just add together and multiply by 0.5

I wanna understand what this MVP really means in graphically.
Is there any article or video to understand it?
@sweet flame Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
the integral is just taking the average value of f on a circle of radius r centered at a
the MVP property holds if that average actually equals f(a), for every a and r such that the circle is contained in the domain

i need help finding if this converges or diverges please!
i was able to solve a similar problem where the numerator was (-1)^(n+1) by converting that to (-1)^n(-1) and then applying the alternating series test, but i dont know how to turn (-1)^(n-1) to a similar format
what do you remember about the alternating series test
it is an alternating series right
yes
so what do you need to check
i need to check if the limit of absolute value of an goes to 0
this was another problem
but i dont get how to separate the (-1)^n for this problem
$(-1)^{n-1}=(-1)^n\times(-1)^{-1}$
Element118
similar idea yeah
it turns out to be the case
since $(-1)^2=1$, so $(-1)^{n+1}=(-1)^{n-1}\times(-1)^2$

How do I proceed with the question if the intervals given for both the functions are different ?
I proved that f(x) and g(x) are discontinuous in their interval
Yep
firstly you can write f(x)+g(x) as a piecewise defined function
But how ? Aren't the intervals different in both the functions?
i'm gonna write it
Oook
$f(x)+g(x)=\begin{cases}
|x+1|+|x|+1&x\leq0\text{ and }x\leq1\
|x+1|-|x-2|&x\leq0\text{ and }x>1\
x+|x|+1&x>0\text{ and }x\leq1\
x-|x-2|&x>0\text{ and }x>1
\end{cases}$
Element118
so in each case, we combine one case from the f function, and one case from the g function
now one of these 4 cases is silly
can you tell which one
Ok yes i see it
So now i check the continuity at all the 4 cases ?
before that, one of these 4 cases cannot happen
The second one ig ?
yeah
and you can simplify the other 3 cases
$f(x)+g(x)=\begin{cases}
|x+1|+|x|+1&x\leq0\
x+|x|+1&x>0\text{ and }x\leq1\
x-|x-2|&x>1
\end{cases}$
Element118
So i simply remove the second case from existence?
yeah you can just yeet the second case
I c its become real simple now thanks

But can u explain what did the book do ?
the book realises that the only interesting points are x=0 and x=1
since x=0 is interesting for f and x=1 is interesting for g
Ig i will stick to what u said thanks 
@woeful pulsar can u help me with another ques :) ?

There are certain (a, b) such that it makes f continuous at x=1 and discontinuous at x=2
plotting all those (a, b) creates a straight line excluding where b=3
But what does "locus of (a,b)" mean ? What are the constraints ?
"locus of (a, b)" = "what you get when you plot all the (a, b) that satisfy the given conditions"
And the given condition is f(x) right ?
the condition is "f(x) continuous at x=1 and discontinuous at x=2"
"locus of all points a certain fixed distance from X" = "circle centered at X"
Where it cuts y = 3 means it is discontinuous at a point when f(x) = 3 ?
no
let's focus on "the set of all (a, b) such that the condition is fulfilled"
focus on that first
then we can draw it out to see what shape it has
Ok lemme just solve it real quick
I should start by doing lim x-> 1 f(x) = f(x), right ?
yeah you should look at the left hand and right hand limits
have you included the condition where f is discontinuous at x=2?
No, i don't which kind of discontinuity it is...so how I proceed? Should I assume it to be removable discontinuity?
Ok i c
So RHL = LHL
Ok i got another equation
Im solving it to get a, b
yeah
Ok so i got the values, now what ??
At 1 it is continuous and at 2 it has a removable discontinuity...and yes then i found out a and b.....a = 6 and b=6
also note
How ? It is continuous at 1
so this is when f is continuous at both 1 and 2
but we want the points where f is continuous at 1, but not at 2
so we take all a-b=3, and remove the point (6, 3)
What does that mean exactly? What should I do next ?
f continuous at 1 => a-b=3
Yep got this
f continuous at 1 and 2 => a=6, b=3
Ok yes
so f continuous at 1 and f not continuous at 2 implies $a-b=3$ but $(a,b)\neq(6,3)$
Element118
Ok so the locus is a-b= 3 excluding b=3 ?

how should I approach this question?
Start with the framework of probability:
(Chance of the event happening)/(All possible events)
What is the chance that all three double yolked eggs are picked? How many ways are there to pick three eggs?
so there are 6 ways to pick 3 eggs
how did you get 4?
either you say "i get 0,1,2 or 3 double yolks" or you divide 12 by 3
both are wrong, just it's some kind of reasoning
P(1st egg double yolk) = 3/12 = 1/4
P(2nd egg double yolk) = 2/11
P(3rd egg double yolk) = 1/10
P(all 3 eggs have double yolks) = 1/4 x 2/11 x 1/10 = 1/220
is this right
how did you get 6
in here
like i came up with 2 methods that will tell you there's 4 ways
to illustrate the surprise, that i couldn;t find a way that gives you 6 ways
oh
isnt the number of ways to pick 3 eggs from a dozen just 12 C 3...?
so does that mean 3/12?
what means what
the chance of the event / the total outcomes
@prime badge can you please elaborate about what are you saying there are 4 ways to do?
why
i dont get what you are trying to say
there are 12 C 3 ways to pick 3 eggs from 1 dozen
it's not interesting, it's interesting that they got 6, now they are saying they didn;t mean 6
so there's nothing left to discuss
only boring stuff
what
i meant that i thought i typed something else
and not 6
that’s phrased soo poorly but yeah
mm got it

Apply arctan to both sides and go from there
Alternatively you can sub y=4x
Find the solution set for tan(y)=1
And then sub x back in

I gotquestion a which was (a-x)u(x) but couldn’t do question b. I’m not sure what to do for that questions. Thank you!
i tried question a which i got the answer to
and i am currently stuck on question b
(a-x)u(x) was what V'(x) was but im not too sure how to do b
it says hence so i assume its using the previous answer but i have no idea...
I think this is incomplete
What did you get for the derivative of the integral
U(t)
U(x) I believe
yeah t and x are the same thing i believe
They definitely aren't
oh
But I guess for the purposes of this problem it doesn't really matter
sorry im quite bad at this topic as i just started but from my knowledge i thought f(x) and f(t) were the same thing
yep
Ah this was trickier than I thought
I thought I had a solution but it didn't work
Sorry
You'll have to wait for someone else 🙏
no worries
I might give it another shot later
thanks for your time!

Hi, a question about notations and answers. I have this question:
Is correct to use the following notations to answer the question in the final answer?
(the equation is already solved, this just a question about the answer and how to formulate it using notations)
no
Ok, how should one do it then?
you can write it as a set
for example : $S = {y = x^k \lvert x²y'' - 2y = 0, k \in {-1, 2}}$
?
Herels
Why there a need to write S seperately, can't y be the set itself?
its good, but it should be better to say which equations they are solutions to
wdym ?
$$y={x^{k}|k \in {{-1,-2}}}$$
y is a function, not a set
Ohh
Is this what you mean?
Calamity
kinda, but without using english words lol
write the equation before the conditions on k
?
Cant you write (x,y), $S = {(x,y) | y = x^k, x²y'' - 2y = 0, k \in {-1, 2}}$
no
the solution to a differential equation is a function, not a couple
no
Calamity
Did it look like you wanted it now?
yea that looks ok now
Alright cool, thanks!
Because function is a set of relation with some conditions
So (x,y) can also be written
if you want to translate it you can say : S is the set of all y = x^k such that x²y'' -2 y = 0, with k = -1 or k =2
if you want, but we dont really care about x, unless they want to add the domain of y
That's also one way of writting a function as set I guess

How do I come up with a solution like this?
How do I gather the intuition required?
That comes with practice
Do not mug up the formulas, instead try to understand and visualise what they mean
Especially ones that you can derive

Confused
@static stirrup Has your question been resolved?
get the vector components of the 3 miles 20 degrees north of west
Vector components?
vectors can be three dimensional but this is 2 dimensional so there's only x and y
So how would I approach it?
vectors can be represented as a combination of vectors in multiple directions. For example, when you walk 3 mile 20 degrees north of west, you travel some distance x west and some distance y north
Vector 'components' are usually referring to the horizontal and vertical directions, usually denoted by x and y
@static stirrup Has your question been resolved?
So how would i find say x amount of miles west?
draw a triangle of the 3 mile part of the journey
the hypotenuse will be the 3 miles
But i already have the bottom side which is 2, and by the pyth theorem i get sqrt 5 for the last side
the 3 mile line goes past the 2 mile line
so the bottom side is not 2
all you have at this stage is the length of the hypotenuse and one angle, what else can you get from this information?

Hey, I am trying to calculate how much I need to get in the final exam to get my desired grade.
Midterm is worth 10% and I got 72/100
Coursework is worth 20% of the final grade and I got 68.8/100
Final exam is worth 70%, how much do I have to get in order to achieve 80% overall grade?
85%
How much do I need to get out of the final exam which is 70%?
To achieve an overall grade of 80%
if it is out of 100 then you need 85 marks
Can you show how you got to this number
(0.1 * 72)+(0.2 * 68.8)+(0.7 * x)=80
x=85
well, 85 is the lowest mark which gives you an overall of 80+
If you wanna calculate it using a calculator, this also works.

in interval notation shouldn’t you say x>0 as $(0,\lim_{n\to \infty}{n})$
Jash
define "should"
since you can’t actually get to the number ∞
do you think that the notation $(0, +\infty)$ is illegal as a notation
Ann
yea
it is not
you can simply have (a, +∞) and (-∞, a) be special cases in the definition of interval notation
from a formal standpoint
you can also construct an object known as the extended real number line, which is the real number line with the two infinities (-∞ and +∞) added in, and with their relationships to other points explicitly defined (and some explicitly left undefined like 0 * (+∞) )
so in fact there is no illegality to speak of
oh
despite the presence of the scary infinity symbol

How would you determine a vector (that cannot be the zero vector) that belongs to both the kernel of T and range of T?
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
"Let's denote the linear transformation T as a matrix A. The kernel of T, denoted ker(T) or nullspace of A, consists of all vectors x such that Ax = 0. The range of T, denoted ran(T) or image of A, consists of all vectors y such that there exists x satisfying Ax = y.
To find a vector x that belongs to both ker(T) and ran(T), we can choose a non-zero vector from the nullspace of A. Since the nullspace contains all vectors x satisfying Ax = 0, we can pick any non-zero vector from the nullspace to satisfy the conditions."
Can't I just pick any vector?
(1, 1, 1) and then do gauss elimination using the (k_1, k_2, v) (so a matrix of the base vectors in ´ker T and then after show for in ran T as well using (r_1, r_2, v)
to show that the vector does indeed span out

Nope 😢

Hey, can someone help me with the ones that are highlighted 💀💀
Last did this in grade 8 and I don’t remember much I struggled with these things 💀💀💀
Hey can you help me?
Take a look at this and see how many you can do
Grade 10 and ma’am gave this too us to do but I don’t remember anything
I hated this in grade 8
Nah it’s geometry idk what E math is lol
I’m South African 😭😭

can I put two different integrals both with respect to x in one equation or do i have to integrate with respect to x, and then with respect to y?
like this for example
show the original problem please
what?
this is not a problem its for me
i want to create a scary looking problem with an answer of pi
and I have 2 integrals in there
so I am asking
with respect to x, then y
you can't just take the product
so this is not correct?
it is correct, you just renamed y as x, it doesn't change anything, what you can't do is assuming it's the same x and mashing it together
is it ok to write it like in the picture?
if what your notation means is calculate both integral and then take the product, yes

I got this problem in a past exam and I don’t know how to solve it, it has been bugging me. I’m asking here since I am worried I may make this mistake in the future.
The problem is to prove that 4x^2 - 10.(something)x^3 is the volume for the four conjoined square based rectangular prisms of base x^2, height y, and has some relation to 10 units^(something else).
Here I tried to prove what structure the volume might take if I had a volume I then removed a cube from or remove something from a cube.
.
The other solution I tried was the obvious one, 4X^2 x Y, but that didn’t mesh with the result, and plugging in an algebraic twisting of a formula back into itself should lead to nothing new.
On the left in this image I show why I’m confused about the line being volume, scaffolding, or surface area.
.
I didn’t perfectly remember the question, which is why there are the two areas of uncertainty.

@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
one way to try it might be like
okay consider proposal 10
it has a sum of 236 and a median of 4.0
so the average rating is 236/50 = 4.72
it has a median of 4.0, so half are at most 4.0, and half are at least 4.0
say that all the ratings are 4.0
then the average rating would be 4.0 and you couldnt reach 4.72
so some have to be higher
if you do proposal 1, lets see
the average is 164/50 = 3.28
median rating is 3
so some must be 4
but we cant be certain any are higher than 4
i dont think thats accurate
half of the scores will be at least the median
and half will be at most the median
using the deduction i talked about like with proposal 10 or 1
lets say
i write these in order:
from least to greatest
1 2 2 3 ?
whats the median
okay
say i tell you the mean is 2.6
can ? be 4?
could it be 3?
dont directly calculate it, just think about it
the question mark number
yes
lets give you some numbers that arent in order
1 ? 4 2 3
the median is 3 and the mean is 2.8
can ? be 5
dont directly calculate it
@real wadi why are you answering 
no offense
we can use the graduated axis?
the point is how much values can drag around the mean
its no because a 5 would leave the distribution balanced
the mean is below the median
so lower numbers have to dominate
idk im just trying to give some sense of what is happening in the problem
you can just follow the example of 1 and 10 though
so some of these distributions are gonna be skewed enough to make a statement
lemme see if i can make pictures
yea im not sure off the top of my head how to do this, sorry
the pictures i mean
but follow the example of 10 and 1
because its possible that 4s could drag it up that much
but if the median is 4 and the mean is 4.6
there is no way for 4's to drag the mean up that high
so in case 8
median is 2, sum is 95
so mean is 1.9
i mean the numbers could be 7
all you can say is that its not necessary for some of the ratings to be 5, 6 , or 7
consider 1,1,1,1,....,7
has sum 56
median 1
but still has a 7
all you are looking for is proposals that must have a 5 6 7
they all could possibly have those numbers
but only some of the must
it is not
okay
in what?
honestly, you could just look at the mean for these, i think
although the median gives some away
like if the median is 4.5 then ...

For any $a \in \mathbb{R}$, consider the vector $\mathbf{u}_a=(1, 1, a, -a)^T \in \mathbb{R}^4$.
So, lemme explain what my initial thought was
what is U
subspace
I thought I could use the basis shift matrix to calculate the coordinate
any subspace?
And then I would get something like v=x1b1+x2b2 and then be like, and we can see this is inside the span
hence it must also belong to the subspace u since it's calculated using the basisshift matrix
What?
you have to tell us what U is
Isn't it just a subspace of R^4?
From here?
we dont know any more than you. if you havent been told explicitly what U is then the question "show that u_a belongs to the subspace U" doesnt make any sense
SimonWin
what is b1, b2, b3?
...
give us all context
Well it's not in your language, hence why I am literally translating everything hahaha
I am not trying to cheese yall for information I promise xD
always just send a picture of the question no matter the language, then translate as needed
Okay got it, well that's all^^
So, u is the subspace that spans across the basis B, but isn't it a subspace of the vector room R^4
u_a = b1 + a b_2 - a b_3
Ye, that's the determine the vector coordinates $[\mathbf{u}_a]_B$ and $[\mathbf{u}_a]_C$, right?
SimonWin
Just do the linear combination
Ah, makes sense, so it actually answers two questions in one
That one I had to determine myself
So I have that one
But it's just the same as for b1 right
prolly
u_a = c1 + a c_2 - a c_3
What's the transpose part all about?
Is that just to show it's actually a column vector and not (1, 1, a, -a) like a point
to show that its a column vector not a row vector
@surreal meteor Has your question been resolved?
Ye, makes sense
But, how would I do this, since it's a 4x1 matrix it can't be multipled with it's basis shift matrix
which is 3x3
$-2$
I was thinking something like this
SimonWin
But that won't work since its 3x3 and 4x1
Aah, I need to find coordinates of course too
lemme try that
Perhaps, something like this
I don't know why I wrote o*() at the end I think i got confused so nvm that, but the rest could be fine right (since basis only consists of b1 b2 and b3 but subset of R^4)
I get this on echelon form
Which is the coordinates
perhaps that is enough to say Show that $\mathbf{u}_a$ belongs to the subspace $U$, and determine the coordinate vectors $[\mathbf{u}_a]_B$ and $[\mathbf{u}_a]_C$.

we don't do your homework for you.
show your work and answer
ok
wait up
so what i did
wait
i took x = -2
0
and 2
x -2 0 2
y -3 -2 -1 For x-2y=4
i do but i dont have a phone
im on mac
its graph answer
i am getting y -3 -2 -1
for both the equations
keeing x -2 0 2
keepin*
so
?
i'm having trouble understanding you
. . . .
for x-2y=4 i did
x -2 0 2
y-3-2-1
for 2x-4y=8 i did
x-2 0 2
y-3-2-1
for both i got same
so i thought its wrong?
?
@vale wigeon u there?
i'm still having trouble understanding you
The way you have it typed makes it hard to understand you, so if you get someone, they're going to have a hard time too
y-3-2-1
What does that mean?
i replace em
Still doesn't answer my question
watch a yt tutorial or something
What does y-3-2-1 mean?
when u solve with replacing x to -2 or. 0 or. 2 y comes that
No it doesn't

Why did you input 3 negative signs?
bruhh 8th grade? :yikes:
What is y-3-2-1 suppose to mean
Can you write it out on paper and send a picture of what you mean?
-2-2y=4
@bitter pond just watch the tutorial dude
then -2y = 6
y=6/-2
y=-3
nothing close it
i was correct
the sir finnaly came
...
nice
i feel like ill forget math
-2-2y=4
then -2y = 6
y=6/-2
y=-3
That made more sense than whatever this was
for x-2y=4 i didx -2 0 2
y-3-2-1for 2x-4y=8 i did
x-2 0 2
y-3-2-1
adios

it looks like a infinite series for me , because the n ranges form (1 - infinity)

can someone explain how it goes from the 2nd equation to the 3rd?
oh ic, so i can just move the constant like that, then factor it out of the limit?
and for the next step they multiplied the denom and numer by 1/n^2?
yes
thank you
they moved the n^2 down
moved it down?
so it became 1/(n+1)^2 *n^-2
ohh
👍
just evaluate the limit
sub n=infinity
i’m just gonna type the bottom bit of the fraction
(1-1/infinity)^2
1/infinity is 0
so 1^2
oh so basically its just 2 lim n infinity, 1
and u get 2(1)
yes
thank you sm
uh
so just to be clear, that 2nd to last step is just 1 + lim ^2?
in the denom
or should i just completely ignore that and focus on the constant
i’m not sure what this means
but i’ll show u what i mean
thank you

Does anyone know how to solve this:
This is a record of ECDH Key Exchange protocol Alice and Bob had using a elliptic Curve E : y^2 = x^3 +ax +b that is defined on a finite field that has p number of elements.
Round 1
A->B : (92,1101)
A<-B : (1,891)
Round 2
A->B : (1010,191)
A<-B : (76,1324)
Using this, fthe Coefficient a, b of the elliptic Curve and the p number of elements to find the value of a+b+p.
@fresh bolt Has your question been resolved?
@fresh bolt Has your question been resolved?
can you provide the definition of what the numbers refer to, from your notes
under round 1, round 2
I have no other information, this was the exact question
do you have notes where you learn about ECDH Key Exchange
nope, this is not a homework or something I learn in school
ok wait maybe I have some notes
but its complicated
does it come from a textbook where it describes what the pair (92, 1101) means
nope, this is all the notes I have
hmm
okay it seems the pair (92, 1101) are (x, y) coordinates
finally understood the question
so round 1 and round 2 are different exchanges that use the same elliptic curve
is there a method simpler than complete search? that I'm not sure
though from the 4 points I would know that
p divides $92^3+92a+b-1101^2,1^3+a+b-891^2...$
Element118
and then we can use some euclidean algorithm stuff to try to find p from there
so p shouldn't be too hard @fresh bolt
from there probably we can solve for a and b too
🤔

help not sure if im doing this right or nit
you can make sure by plugging a number in the original equation, and plugging the same number in your answer, and if it gives you the same result, you'll know you did it right
to be honest, your work gets kinda cluttered, it's hard to see
Hi
i cross out one bottom and too cos(theta)
is that the right direction
<@&286206848099549185>
Sorry I went and helped someone else meanwhile. In the screenshot you sent, I don't see what's on the denominator, but if it really is cos(theta), then you'd get something like:
$\frac{cos\theta \cdot tan\theta + sin\theta}{cos\theta} \newline \frac{cos\theta (tan\theta + tan\theta)}{cos\theta}$
ah no oops
imTyp0
thank you
wait
i broke down tantheta
for sin over cos
if i do that
$frac{cos\theta (tan\theta + tan\theta)}{cos\theta}$
steph1235
no idea how to use that
it's \frac
steph1235
fuck
i sub the middle tan for sinovercos theta
and then im not sure what to do
i cancel out
to elimate denomitao
$\frac{cos\theta (\frac{sin\theta}{cos\theta} + sin\theta)}{cos\theta}$
imTyp0
you did this?
even if you did, you should be able to find the solution, just put everything on same denominator and reduce. But you don't need to

does anyone know how to do this
I assume its sin(pi/2 - 4/9)
but idk how to simplify it
oh
Anyways I can just dump the identity in your face, but that wouldn't make you understand why
So how about you whip out a paper and draw a graph
And draw an acute angle in the first quadrant
yep now highlight theta for the angle
And also to write the adjacent and opposite in terms of theta
this is cos right?
Which one
what were drawign now
the triangle
the adjacent would be 4
hyp 9
theta is 63.6
