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
swift bridge
#

I don't know where to start

#

and how to solve it

gray isle
#

have you ever factored stuff before

swift bridge
#

yes

gray isle
#

so what's your issue with factoring this

swift bridge
#

im a little bit confused by all the text

gray isle
#

ignore all the text

swift bridge
#

and if I should include something I haven't noticed

gray isle
#

its just unnecessary padding

#

focus on factoring
0.06r^2 + r

swift bridge
#

r(0.06r+1)

#

right?

gray isle
#

yes

swift bridge
#

alright, thank you

gritty verge
#

Multiple integral Qn

lone heartBOT
gritty verge
#

im not so sure how to do this! Appreciate help ^^

crisp cargo
#

imagine that x were replaced by some constant and integrate with respect to y

gritty verge
#

hmm

#

like u substituition?

crisp cargo
#

have you computed a double integral before this?

gritty verge
crisp cargo
#

just consider the part in the middle and pretend that x were replaced with a for example

#

would you know how to integrate e^y/a dy

gritty verge
#

mhm

#

wld it be like a. e^y/a?

crisp cargo
#

yes

#

now if you apply the bounds, you should get a single integral in terms of x

#

from 0 to 1

gritty verge
#

ooh

#

okay lemme try it out now

#

is this progress correct?

crisp cargo
#

yes

gritty verge
#

wait i feel like my brain is on halt, but how is the e^(x^2) integrated

crisp cargo
#

now you can use a u substitution

#

because it is also being multiplied by an x

gritty verge
#

wait so like i let uhh x^2 be u or smth?

crisp cargo
#

yes!

#

because what would du be

gritty verge
#

yep thats where my brain dies how do i find du? issit just like 2?

#

2x

crisp cargo
#

use the chain rule

#

if u = x^2, du = 2x*dx

gritty verge
#

ooh

#

so dx is du/2x

crisp cargo
#

yea

gritty verge
#

wait how wld the whole thing look written out?

gritty verge
#

i cant seem to visualise it

crisp cargo
#

you can factor it so that it is x(e^x^2 - 1)

#

then you should be able to replace x^2 by u and dx by du/2x, as you already discovered

gritty verge
#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
gritty verge
#

i think i missed smth smwhere

#

cus it shld be -2 not -1 oml

#

oh nvm

#

found it

native venture
lone heartBOT
native venture
#

is 6 true or false?

crisp cargo
#

im assuming the first big N refers to the natural numbers and the second statement is a quantification over sets

#

it would be false then

native venture
#

can you tell why?

crisp cargo
#

what does it mean for the cardinality of a set to be less than another cardinality

#

and what does the powerset operator do

native venture
#

powerset operator gives subsets

native venture
crisp cargo
#

yes

#

u can think of it as an ordinal i guess

native venture
#

it would mean that there is a natural number which is greater than the cardinality of all subsets of natural numbers

native venture
crisp cargo
#

transitive and well ordered set

#

|X| = the least ordinal such that there is a bijection between X and the ordinal

#

thats not important tho

crisp cargo
native venture
#

yes

#

no not a subset

#

it belongs to the power set

crisp cargo
#

wait my bad 😅 thats what i meant to ask

native venture
#

N has no upper bound?

#

i dont really know what upper bound means exactly 😅

crisp cargo
#

|X| < n if after putting every element from each in one to one correspondence, there is still something left over in n

native venture
#

n is one number

crisp cargo
#

yes but you can think of it as the set of natural numbers up to n for example

#

if you want to compare cardinalities

native venture
#

oh alright so it is basically saying cardinality of natural numbers is less than the cardinality of natural numbers

#

?

crisp cargo
#

for it to be true, that would have to be the case

native venture
#

Yea which is why false is the answer?

crisp cargo
#

does it make sense to you?

native venture
#

Yup

#

there is no natural number which is greater than all natural numbers

crisp cargo
#

yes

native venture
#

thanks

native nebula
#

help

lone heartBOT
native nebula
#

am i doing it correctly?

subtle birch
#

yes

native nebula
#

what should be the next step?

#

i am confused

subtle birch
#

find the base using cosine rule and then use 1/2*a*bsinx to find the area

#

let me see if there's a trick

native nebula
#

can't apply the cosine rule

#

because the angle is unknown

subtle birch
#

105

native nebula
#

that is not the angle between the known sides

subtle birch
#

I mean use

#

12^2=(12*(sqrt(3)-1)/sqrt(2))^2-x^2+2*x*12*((sqrt(3)-1)/sqrt(2))cos(105)

native nebula
#

you mean to use this formula?

subtle birch
#

yes

#

assume base to be x

native nebula
#

i need to know angle A

#

to use cosine rule

#

@subtle birch

subtle birch
#

we know the value of y which is (12/sqrt(2))(sqrt(3)-1)

native nebula
#

x is known or y is known?

subtle birch
#

y is known

#

I just didnt write the value because it was too long

#

x is unknown

native nebula
#

ok

#

but we have to take the angle between 12 and y

subtle birch
#

take angle between x and y

native nebula
#

not x and y

subtle birch
#

it's result will be 12

native nebula
subtle birch
#

a^2=b^2+c^2-2bccosA
Here a is known
c is known
A is known
b is unknown

#

So you can find b

native nebula
gray isle
#

how is it not correct

native nebula
#

but i still can't understand

#

😭.

gray isle
#

what exactly don't you understand here

#

you have the cos rule/law
and know 3 of the 4 variables

native nebula
#

how to find y

native nebula
gray isle
#

your diagram is wrong

native nebula
#

how

gray isle
#

the side with 12 should be opposite that 105° angle

native nebula
#

ok

native nebula
gray isle
#

you have angle A

#

you have the cos rule/law
and know 3 of the 4 variables

#

a^2=b^2+c^2-2bccosA
Here a is known
c is known
A is known
b is unknown
So you can find b

how to find x

lone heartBOT
gray isle
#

you've already most of the work

#

you have a right triangle with 2 known sides with 2x being the angle in between

#

2x can be determined with trig
and x can be determine from that

lucid ferry
#

i dont really get it

ik that i have 3 sides of the the triangle

alpine sable
lucid ferry
alpine sable
#

law of sines
law of cosine
inverse tangent

x <= -3 so ]-infty , -3]
x <= 2 so ]-infty , 2]

foggy copper
#

huh

brisk heath
#

isn't that how you solve it

foggy copper
#

it's less than or equal to 0

#

if you put x to -∞ it'll just get squared to go to +∞

I don’t understand how to do the second part of the question

#

At the bottom

glacial rover
#

As in all parts from i to iv?

inner hinge
#

I need help with the bottom question

glacial rover
#

Wait yeah my bad

inner hinge
#

I get the +4 to the first part and the second part is equal to 0 but idk how they got that

fringe idol
#

integral of f' is just f(x)?

inner hinge
#

But wouldn’t that make the answer equal to -75

fringe idol
#

no idea

#

calc aint my cuppa tea

glacial rover
#

The question should be worded as fine the area

#

Then given you the integral

#

Basically because the integral of a differentiated function is the function itself the net area it is adding is 0

opal pendant
#

integral of f'(x) is f(x)

#

so then it would be f(5)-f(0)

#

by looking at the graph you can tell the y values at x=5 and x=0

#

so f(5)=0, f(0)=0

#

0-0=0

inner hinge
#

Ahhh

wintry igloo
#

dT/dx = aT + ac*sinx + bcosx

lone heartBOT
wintry igloo
#

solve for T

#

limits of x is 0 to Pi and for T is T1, T2

glacial rover
#

I’m assuming it can be left in terms of other terms

#

So start with trying to integrate the function

lone heartBOT
#

@wintry igloo Has your question been resolved?

wintry igloo
#

i tried @glacial rover

glacial rover
#

Ah okay

#

So you can split it up into three equations

wintry igloo
#

some one suggested T'-aT = 0

glacial rover
#

You are integrating aT, acsinx and bcosx

#

Hmmmm

wintry igloo
#

@glacial rover
T' - aT = ac sinx + bcosx
solving T'-aT=0 gives T=k exp(ax)
then find any single solution to T'-aT=acsinx+bcosx (hint T will be trig) and add kexp(ax) equals solved

#

i didnt get it tho why we did this

glacial rover
#

Is that the method they used to find the correct answer?

alpine sable
#

I want a solution to This: $\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x$

ocean sealBOT
#

cat-anoia😺

alpine sable
#

Book mentions how the second equation follows from integrating the first one with respect to x

worn fox
#

Well then your answer is right there

alpine sable
#

Yes but how

worn fox
#

1/2 * (dx/dt)^2

wind cloak
#

Isn't this the equation to a simple harmonic oscillator

alpine sable
#

How is it true

wind cloak
#

And the energy

worn fox
#

Differentiate it

alpine sable
#

I can see it's true

#

But I want a solution to This: $\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x$ that's it

ocean sealBOT
#

cat-anoia😺

alpine sable
#

How is that somehow equal to 1/2 * (dx/dt)^2

worn fox
#

Maybe sub u = dx/dt

#

Can't check rn

wind cloak
#

$\dv[2]{x}{t} = \dv{v}{t} = \dv{v}{x} \cdot \dv{x}{t} = v\dv{v}{x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

alpine sable
#

Ohhhh

wind cloak
#

$\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x = \int v \dd v$

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

alpine sable
#

Ahhh

#

Thanks so much

#

Wait but I have a

#

Doubt again

#

Wait lemme formulare

#

Ut

#

Basically

#

What if we

#

Integrate

#

The second equation wrt x again?

wind cloak
#

Uh

#

If you differentiate energy you get force*

alpine sable
#

We will get another constant right

#

Just like u got total energy as a constant of integration

alpine sable
wind cloak
#

Not sure what you mean

#

You should have limits whenever integrating in phsyics

alpine sable
#

Maybe we will get some constant with no physical meaning

alpine sable
#

Ok anyway thanks

#

I guess I just forgot the old d2x/dt2 = v dv/dx

wind cloak
#

You basically want to integrate the first equation to get to the second right?

median dirge
alpine sable
#

Now I want to see what will happen if

#

We integrate the second equation

#

With respect to x

median dirge
wind cloak
#

$\int E \dd x$

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

wind cloak
#

Like this?

alpine sable
#

Yea

wind cloak
#

This would be weird

alpine sable
#

That shud be something undefined right

wind cloak
#

Not undefined

alpine sable
#

Well

#

Ok wait

#

Lemme send a pic

wind cloak
#

It wouldn't be beneficial

alpine sable
#

Well get this essentially right

wind cloak
#

Did you just integrate both sides

#

There's no differential element

alpine sable
#

?

wind cloak
#

Did you multiply it on both sides

alpine sable
#

Integrated both sides wrt x

wind cloak
alpine sable
#

dx

wind cloak
#

Why is kx^2 outside the integral

alpine sable
#

I integrated it already

#

Forgot to write the constant of integration tho

#

But i wrote it in next line

wind cloak
#

You should get 1/6kx^3

alpine sable
#

I integrate 1/2 kx

alpine sable
#

Holy sbit

wind cloak
#

1/2kx doesn't have significance

alpine sable
#

I forgot to square

#

Typo

#

Ok wait

wind cloak
#

I mean you know that $\dv{x}{t} = v$

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

alpine sable
wind cloak
#

And you presumably have an expression for it

alpine sable
#

Whats integration of v^2 dx

wind cloak
#

$\int_0^v v \dd v = \int_A^x \frac{-k}{m}x \dd x$

alpine sable
#

Wait

#

Oh ok true

#

Yes

alpine sable
wind cloak
#

At the amplitude, i.e. the extreme position, the velocity is 0

alpine sable
#

Yes

wind cloak
#

And at displacement x the velocity is v

alpine sable
#

Yes

wind cloak
alpine sable
#

Why does indefinite integral work for the rest

#

But now we need limits?

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

wind cloak
alpine sable
wind cloak
#

We don't derive that equation from the equation of SHM

alpine sable
#

?

#

We did?

wind cloak
#

Instead we write the total energy of the oscillator, kinetic + spring potential

alpine sable
#

By integrating with respect to x?

alpine sable
wind cloak
#

Well yes you can

#

But why did you use an indefinite integral

alpine sable
#

Well

#

I used it

#

And I got something true

#

And my textbook did the same

wind cloak
#

You won't get anything wrong

alpine sable
#

Yes

wind cloak
#

But you need to plug in the initial conditions to get your constants right

#

Or get rid of them entirely

alpine sable
#

But we got the energy constant right with indefinite integral

#

I mean

#

I agree that

#

When we use definite integration

#

It will be a more solid

#

Thing

wind cloak
#

Energy will be constant yes

alpine sable
#

Yes so

wind cloak
#

That's a property of a simple harmonic oscillator

alpine sable
#

Why can't we further integrate

wind cloak
#

What will you do by integrating it further

#

Does Edx or xdE give you anything useful

alpine sable
alpine sable
#

I was intrigued by the fact that the total energy comes out of integrating the shm equation

#

So I thought what if

#

We integrate further

#

We will yield another constant right

#

What is that constant

#

I'm interested

#

In that

wind cloak
alpine sable
#

Yes

wind cloak
#

$-\vec{F} = \pdv{U}{x} \hat i + \pdv{U}{y} \hat j + \pdv{U}{z} \hat k$

ocean sealBOT
#

NEONPerseus

alpine sable
#

Yeah

#

But that still doesn't answer why can't we indefinite integrate further

wind cloak
#

The "constant" that you would get upon integrating again would just be the initial value of the new physical quantity defined by Ex

#

... which is meaningless

alpine sable
#

Hmmm

#

Yes

#

That quantity is just worthless I gues

#

Yea

#

I understand where I'm wrong

#

Thanks

wind cloak
#

You're not wrong

#

It's just that Ex isn't of much use

#

Or any at all

alpine sable

I thought we will keep getting some fun constants as many times we integrate

Silly me

#

Every formula you use you should know how to derive them

median oar
#

Then first learn how they got this formula

#

It’s not about watching videos that do derivation

#

It’s about can you derive them from scratch

#

If you can, you’ll understand exactly where each part of the formula comes from and which variable is what

#

Then what are the y0, y1, y2, … yn-1’s, yn?

#

And what are those values

#

What is y0 and yn specifically

#

Yes

#

What about y1 to yn-1?

#

So we want to find what n is, right?

#

Let’s see

#

y0 = first value

#

yn = last value

#

How many values do we have in total

#

Well, in general it’ll be n+1 values

#

That formulation is not particularly good

#

The last y value

#

Like yn is at x=b

#

There’s 2 different n’s here

#

It’s pretty yucky

#

The n in yn refers to how many points (-1) you have, in this question you have 5 points

#

Because x=1, x=1.5, x=2, x=2.5, x=3

#

That’s your 5 points

#

Oh wait that’s why they start with 0

#

Yuck

#

5 points give you 4 intervals

That's the AM-GM inequality

misty bison
#

do i not need to do anything with the denominator of 2 before that

misty bison
thick lynx
#

Arithmetic Mean Geometric Mean inequality

misty bison
#

never heard of it

thick lynx
#

It's useful, I used it yesterday for determining a minimum value of a function, without having to derive twice, set the first derivative to 0, ... for example

misty bison
#

oh

#

im doing first year of a level maths atm we've literally only done integration and differentiation

#

trynna prep for my end of year AS exam but these questions for revision have me fumbling

thick lynx
#

Here is a Math StackExchange post that asks for a proof of the two variable version that you have:

misty bison
#

alr lemme have a look

thick lynx
misty bison
#

i got a point of 4xy <= x^2 + 2xy + y

#

but now im just lost even after looking at that

thick lynx
misty bison
#

howd he go from here to here

thick lynx
misty bison
thick lynx
#

\begin{align*} \sqrt{xy} &\leq \frac{x+y}{2} \ xy &\leq \frac{x^2 + 2xy + y^2}{4} \ 4xy &\leq x^2 + 2xy + y^2 \ 2xy &\leq x^2 + y^2 \ 0 &\leq x^2 - 2xy + y^2 \ 0 &\leq (x-y)^2\end{align*} which is true, since anything squared is atleast $0$.

misty bison
#

oh

#

i feel dumb now

#

makes sense now

#

thanks a ton

thick lynx
#

Maybe the first answer in the MSE post is quicker

#

Np

misty bison
#

but then

#

for b

#

what would i sub in to get a number that isnt greater or equal to 0

thick lynx
#

Well, you can just try any negative x and y, say x = -1 and y = -1, that would give you 1 <= -1, which is false.

#

x = -1 and y = -1 is the counter example

misty bison
#

is that not equal to 0?

thick lynx
#

\begin{align*} \sqrt{(-1)(-1)} &\leq \frac{-1 + (-1)}{2} \ 1 &\leq \frac{-2}{2} \ 1 &\leq -1 \end{align*}

misty bison
#

ohh id have to sub it back into that inequality

#

and not the one we rearranged for

#

so -5 and -3 also work

thick lynx
#

The question asks you to give a counter example when the original inequality is not true for neg x and y

@thick lynx where what and when did u start learning from

thick lynx
# misty bison <@332561465405865985> where what and when did u start learning from

Uh, I self-studied some competition math, now I'm self-studying analysis and linear algebra from german books (Königsberger and Fischer), I'm participating in "math student seminars", our local university's math department offers them, they cover concepts from the first semesters, and I'm allowed to study mathematics at uni beginning from 11th grade, so in a few months.

#

I still do some competition math to prepare, since my high school will send out a team to participate in a competition, including me, but I think self-studying ahead uni math is more useful (Terence Tao, a maths field medalist, wrote an article in his blog about this, by the way)

@misty bison Has your question been resolved?

misty bison
#

alr

#

thx

#

lowkey stuck again

#

i went in a full circle and got to 4a/b + b/a >= 4 (the original inequality )

#

but dont know where to go from there

wild trail
#

use this form: $2 \sqrt{xy} \le (x+y)$

ocean sealBOT
#

numbpy (anti glomed)

wild trail
#

think what would be an appropriate vale for x and y

misty bison
#

isnt that the previous question

wild trail
#

yes, you're supposed to use the previous question to solve this one

#

This is pretty common tactic question setters use

misty bison
#

i mean i got in the form 4a^2 + b^2 >= 4ab

#

unless i did that wrong to

wild trail
#

it wasn't necessary but it should simplify

#

I think you can now see what x and y should be

#

compare both the equations

misty bison
#

uhm

misty bison
wild trail
#

what similarities do you see

misty bison
#

ab in common

thick lynx
#

\begin{align*} \frac{4a}{b} + \frac{b}{a} &\geq 4 \ x+y &\geq 2\sqrt{xy}\end{align*}

thick lynx
# misty bison ab in common

Both are an inequality with a factor of two on the RHS, we know that the second is true since we proved it

#

We need to prove the first

#

Both have two terms on the LHS too

#

Hint: we should substitute something

misty bison
#

uhm

#

still dont know

thick lynx
#

How can we make $x + y$ be equal to $\frac{4a}{b} + \frac b a$? What do we need to plug in for $x$ and $y$?

misty bison
#

as in what we need to sub in for a and b?

thick lynx
misty bison
#

but what does the x+y have to do with this question

#

_>

#

is that supposed to be the original form its in

thick lynx
#

If we sub in some values for x and y and we get the left hand side of the inequality in question, then our established inequality will give us a lower bound on it.

[x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy}] is true for all positive $x$ and $y$, we proved that earlier. Now, we need to prove that [\frac{4a}{b} + \frac b a \geq 4.] If we could transform our true inequality, [x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy}] into [\frac{4a}{b} + \frac{b}{a} \geq something] and $something$ happens to be $4$, then that would be great.

fossil latch
#

On a much more special case, what happens if y= 1/x?

misty bison
#

2rt4a/b.b/a?

thick lynx
# misty bison as in what we need to sub in for a and b?

If we sub in $x = \frac{4a}{b}$ and $y = \frac{b}{a}$ into [x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy},] then we would certainly have [\frac{4a}{b} + \frac{b}{a} \geq 2\sqrt{\frac{4a}{b}\cdot \frac{b}{a}},] now the LHS of our true inequality matches that of what we want to prove. We know that [\frac{4a}{b} + \frac{b}{a} \geq 2\sqrt{\frac{4a}{b}\cdot \frac{b}{a}}] is true because we established that $x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy}$ earlier, for all positive values of $x$ and $y$, and $\frac{4a}{b}$ and $\frac{b}{a}$ are also positive values, since $a$ and $b$ are positive.

#

This proves the inequality. We started with our inequality that we know is true and transformed it into that in the question by transforming the left hand side into that of the one in question, and the right hand side happened to be 4.

misty bison
#

how did u go from here to here

thick lynx
misty bison
#

oh right

#

ye

wild trail
misty bison
#

just gonna check the mark scheme for this rq

#

to see what it wanted

#

cause i think thats a lot for 4 marks

wild trail
#

a lot? this is like 3 lines

misty bison
#

well its a little more than what you need to do for a 4 mark proof question

#

at A level

thick lynx
misty bison
#

oh makes more sense

thick lynx
#

If you include all the steps and thought processes, that x and y will still be positive if a, b > 0, ... then it will look longer, of course

misty bison
#

i dont get what the mark scheme did differently tho

thick lynx
# misty bison

Perhaps they did it like this: [(2a-b)^2 \geq 0] since anything squared is atleast $0$. [4a^2 -4ab + b^2 \geq 0] and so [4a^2 + b^2 \geq 4ab,] now divide both sides by $ab$: \begin{align*} \frac{4a}{b} + \frac b a &\geq 4 \ &\hspace{3cm} \square \end{align*}

im supposed to get this

#

9 and -3 dont add up to 3

#

how do they do this

versed lily
#

is that suppose to be the final answer

#

or ?

mystic nebula
#

no thats just what the denominator is factored into

#

the only thing in the way of me solving the equation is this

hushed locust
#

try multiplying it out

versed lily
#

^

hushed locust
#

the 2y changes the way it factors

versed lily
#

^^

mystic nebula
#

i did multiply it out which proves its right

#

but that makes no sense

sonic ridge
#

what doesnt make sense about it?

mystic nebula
#

because you look for what multiplies into -27 and adds into +3

#

9 and -3 dont and neither does -9 and + 3

hushed locust
#

we're looking for something that multiplies into -27 and adds into +3 when one of them is multiplied by 2

mystic nebula
#

im lost

sonic ridge
#

when the coefficient isnt 1, that strategy really doesnt apply

mystic nebula
#

what do i do then

sonic ridge
#

youre right that the constant terms of factored form needs to multiply into -27

#

that remains true

#

you need to figure out 2 values that multiply to -27

#

and add to +3 when one of the two values is multiplied by the value in front of coefficient

mystic nebula
#

meaning what

#

i multiply the two values by the coefficient?

sonic ridge
#

lets call the two values a and b right

#

a * b = -27

#

now 2a + b = +3 OR a + 2b = +3

mystic nebula
#

right

#

wait dont you mean a +2b = +3

sonic ridge
#

yes sorry

mystic nebula
#

so 2(-9) + b = 3 or
9 + 2(-3) = 3

#

so how does that affect the way i express the equation

sonic ridge
#

well when you factor it, you should have something that looks like (2y+a)(y+b) right

#

and a*b=-27

#

2a + b = +3 OR a + 2b = +3

#

find the values of a and b that satisify the conditions

sonic ridge
mystic nebula
#

so i just do it as if the coefficient is 1

#

and multiply it by 2

so is it safe to do that method?

I feel like im doing something wrong

#

so is one of these answers is the answer for the question? because I feel like im supposed to use something else

alpine sable
#

i asked about the volume formula

#

not what the x value was

#

before cutting out the four corners of the paper

#

what are the dimensions of the paper?

#

what is the length after you cut out two corners?
what is the width after you cut out two corners?

swift bridge
#

x * 35 and the length is 5

alpine sable
#

what?

#

if the dimensions are x * 35

#

how is the length 5

swift bridge
#

I am confused man

alpine sable
#

x or 35 can be the length

#

lets just say x is the length

#

x is the length
35 is the width

#

you are cutting 5 inches from the length and width

#

what is the length when you cut out two lengths of 5?
what is the width when you cut out two lengths of 5?

alpine sable
#

2 * 5 = 5?

#

and if you fold the flaps up to make a 3d shape

#

how tall would they be

swift bridge
#

5 right?

alpine sable
#

yeah

#

what is the length, width and height after you cut out the squares and fold the flaps up?

swift bridge
#

how to write it? like (x-10) * 25 +_ 20?

#

im so sorry man, I am just very confused. these questions weren't in my lesson.

#

bear with me 😂

for question b, would the quadratic formula work for determining the number of x intercepts? Or can it not be applied to cubic functions

pearl hamlet
#

and cubics are not quadratic

spice cape
#

so do you know a potential way to determine the number of x intercepts other than the quadratic formula?

coral cosmos
#

what does CAS refer to btw ?

pearl hamlet
#

computer algebra system

spice cape

#

But is that any different from factorizing though

spice cape
#

isnt that factorization tho for the first step?

pearl hamlet
#

actually yea nvm lol

#

you can prolly use fundamental theorem of algebra

#

to check existence of roots

spice cape
#

my teacher pretty much hinted that the quadratic formula is an answer but I wasnt too sure

#

can the discriminant be used?

pearl hamlet
#

hmm, i can't think of a nice way using the quadratic formula other than factoring it first

spice cape
#

would the discriminant work?

pearl hamlet
#

cubics have their own discriminant thats different from the quadratic

spice cape
#

could i just use the cubic discriminant?

pearl hamlet
#

sure, you can

#

but that doesn't involve the quadratic equation

spice cape
#

ye idk maybe my teacher was wrong

how come it isn't -5/4loge**|2-4x|**+ c instead

median oar
#

,w d/dx -5/4 ln|2x-1|

median oar
#

5/(2-4x) = -5/2 * 1/(2x-1) = -5/4 * 2/(2x-1)

#

why the bottom x does not eliminate or reduce the top x?

gray isle
#

x isn't a common factor

#

that isn't how fraction simplification works

#

there's no justification for erasure of expressions that happen to appear in the numerator and denominator

devout yew
#

how do i know when to rest/add them to the top?

gray isle
#

$\frac{ab}{ac}$ simplifies to $\frac bc$ as
$$\frac{ab}{ac} = \underbrace{\frac aa}_{1} \times \frac bc = \frac bc$$

gray isle

identify common factors

#

here attempt to factorise the numerator

barren portal
#

If you have $\frac{5^2-5+6}{5+2}$

#

can you just cancel of 5 ?

devout yew
#

mm no because one is positive and the other negative?

lament forge
#

if you have $\frac{3+1}{2+1}$ (so, $\frac{4}{3}$), \ can you cancel out the $1$s and turn it into $\frac{3}{2}$?
