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
have you ever factored stuff before
yes
so what's your issue with factoring this
am I supposed to just factory the formula? not includ any numbers from the question?
im a little bit confused by all the text
ignore all the text
and if I should include something I haven't noticed
yes

Multiple integral Qn
im not so sure how to do this! Appreciate help ^^
imagine that x were replaced by some constant and integrate with respect to y
have you computed a double integral before this?
im not sure how i can perform u substituiton hehe...
mhm
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
yes
now if you apply the bounds, you should get a single integral in terms of x
from 0 to 1
yes
wait i feel like my brain is on halt, but how is the e^(x^2) integrated
wait so like i let uhh x^2 be u or smth?
yea
wait how wld the whole thing look written out?
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
i think i missed smth smwhere
cus it shld be -2 not -1 oml
oh nvm
found it
tysm!

is 6 true or false?
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
can you tell why?
what does it mean for the cardinality of a set to be less than another cardinality
and what does the powerset operator do
powerset operator gives subsets
Small n is not a set , it is a number right?
it would mean that there is a natural number which is greater than the cardinality of all subsets of natural numbers
what is that
transitive and well ordered set
|X| = the least ordinal such that there is a bijection between X and the ordinal
thats not important tho
is the natural numbers a subset of its powerset?
wait my bad 😅 thats what i meant to ask
|X| < n if after putting every element from each in one to one correspondence, there is still something left over in n
n is one number
yes but you can think of it as the set of natural numbers up to n for example
if you want to compare cardinalities
oh alright so it is basically saying cardinality of natural numbers is less than the cardinality of natural numbers
?
for it to be true, that would have to be the case
Yea which is why false is the answer?
does it make sense to you?
yes

help
yes
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
105
that is not the angle between the known sides
I mean use
12^2=(12*(sqrt(3)-1)/sqrt(2))^2-x^2+2*x*12*((sqrt(3)-1)/sqrt(2))cos(105)
we know the value of y which is (12/sqrt(2))(sqrt(3)-1)
x is known or y is known?
take angle between x and y
not x and y
it's result will be 12
why
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
but this is not the correct formula
how is it not correct
he edited it later
but i still can't understand
😭.
what exactly don't you understand here
you have the cos rule/law
and know 3 of the 4 variables
.
your diagram is wrong
how
the side with 12 should be opposite that 105° angle
ok
but I should be knowing angle C in order to use the cosine rule
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
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
i dont really get it
ik that i have 3 sides of the the triangle
you have three sides and an angle
yes the sides 13,12,5 and the angle 90 but how do i find x
law of sines
law of cosine
inverse tangent
inverse sin
inverse cosine
Probably other ways as well but idk

I need help with the bottom question
,rccw
As in all parts from i to iv?
I need help with the bottom question
Wait yeah my bad
I get the +4 to the first part and the second part is equal to 0 but idk how they got that
integral of f' is just f(x)?
But wouldn’t that make the answer equal to -75
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
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

dT/dx = aT + ac*sinx + bcosx
I’m assuming it can be left in terms of other terms
So start with trying to integrate the function
@wintry igloo Has your question been resolved?
i tried @glacial rover
some one suggested T'-aT = 0
@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
Is that the method they used to find the correct answer?

I want a solution to This: $\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x$
cat-anoia😺
Book mentions how the second equation follows from integrating the first one with respect to x
Well then your answer is right there
Yes but how
1/2 * (dx/dt)^2
Isn't this the equation to a simple harmonic oscillator
How is it true
And the energy
Yes
Differentiate it
Uhh sure but I want to know how it works in the inverse way
I can see it's true
But I want a solution to This: $\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x$ that's it
cat-anoia😺
How is that somehow equal to 1/2 * (dx/dt)^2
$\dv[2]{x}{t} = \dv{v}{t} = \dv{v}{x} \cdot \dv{x}{t} = v\dv{v}{x}$
NEONPerseus
Ohhhh
$\int \dv[2]{x}{t} \dd x = \int v \dd v$
NEONPerseus
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?
We will get another constant right
Just like u got total energy as a constant of integration
Yeah
Maybe we will get some constant with no physical meaning
Hmm
Ok anyway thanks
I guess I just forgot the old d2x/dt2 = v dv/dx
You basically want to integrate the first equation to get to the second right?
That I got
This is correct 
Now I want to see what will happen if
We integrate the second equation
With respect to x
Back from your JEE days, clattanoid
NEONPerseus
Like this?
Yea
This would be weird
That shud be something undefined right
Not undefined
It wouldn't be beneficial
?
Did you multiply it on both sides
Integrated both sides wrt x
You need d(somthing)
dx
Why is kx^2 outside the integral
I integrated it already
Forgot to write the constant of integration tho
But i wrote it in next line
You should get 1/6kx^3
I integrate 1/2 kx
1/2kx doesn't have significance
I mean you know that $\dv{x}{t} = v$
NEONPerseus
And you presumably have an expression for it
What expression?
Whats integration of v^2 dx
$\int_0^v v \dd v = \int_A^x \frac{-k}{m}x \dd x$
How to integrate first term in this
At the amplitude, i.e. the extreme position, the velocity is 0
Yes
And at displacement x the velocity is v
Yes
You find the value of v^2 from the above integral
NEONPerseus
Where did you use an indefinite integral
In finding the energy equation from the shm equation
We don't derive that equation from the equation of SHM
Instead we write the total energy of the oscillator, kinetic + spring potential
By integrating with respect to x?
We get this wehn we integrate the shm equation wrt x
You won't get anything wrong
Yes
But you need to plug in the initial conditions to get your constants right
Or get rid of them entirely
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
Energy will be constant yes
Yes so
That's a property of a simple harmonic oscillator
Why can't we further integrate
Property of an simple harmonic oscillator which is represented in the shm equation
I just want to see the new constant it produces
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
Because conservative force can be defined as an energy gradient
Yes
$-\vec{F} = \pdv{U}{x} \hat i + \pdv{U}{y} \hat j + \pdv{U}{z} \hat k$
NEONPerseus
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
Oh
Hmmm
Yes
That quantity is just worthless I gues
Yea
I understand where I'm wrong
Thanks
Wrong in assuming something fun will comes out of it
Yea exactly
I thought we will keep getting some fun constants as many times we integrate

Silly me
Unfortunately the world is not that beautiful

umm its still open so who cares
anyways its to find how many times a number should multiply by itself to reaches a certain number
its hard to explain i dont study it in english

Vertical strips
You can tell because of the integral you’re estimating
It says dx
How to find formula of tan(A/3)? How do you find value of tan50?
Open your own channel
do not memorise formula
What do you mean?
Every formula you use you should know how to derive them
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
-Znar
As is obvious from this
I don’t know
Show your work
You’re missing a set of brackets
(y0 + yn) + 2(y1 + y2 + … + yn-1) is bracketed

Looks kinda right

Square both sides
That's the AM-GM inequality
do i not need to do anything with the denominator of 2 before that
am gm?
Arithmetic Mean Geometric Mean inequality
never heard of it
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
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
There is a variation of this for three variables and generally n variables too
Here is a Math StackExchange post that asks for a proof of the two variable version that you have:
alr lemme have a look
This answer, upside-down, is probably what @tacit arch wanted to do:
https://math.stackexchange.com/a/1689315
i got a point of 4xy <= x^2 + 2xy + y
but now im just lost even after looking at that
At which one?
howd he go from here to here
It's maybe clearer if you start from the bottom:
(I was writing it up and I clicked away from it accidentally, now it disappeared, I will write it up in a second)
💀 oh ive been looking at it the wrong way
\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 $0$.
but then
for b
what would i sub in to get a number that isnt greater or equal to 0
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
is that not equal to 0?
\begin{align*} \sqrt{(-1)(-1)} &\leq \frac{-1 + (-1)}{2} \ 1 &\leq \frac{-2}{2} \ 1 &\leq -1 \end{align*}
ohh id have to sub it back into that inequality
and not the one we rearranged for
so -5 and -3 also work
Well, we did all the rearranging just to prove the original equality
The question asks you to give a counter example when the original inequality is not true for neg x and y
Yeah
Not anymore
ah
Now I'm doing maths all day :D
what you trynna achieve
Well, I want to study mathematics, I'm in high school currently
I want to become a mathematician
wait.. how old r u
16
On math exams? Yes.
In physics too, but in everything else not, haha
thas what i meant
cause im 17
😭
😂
@thick lynx 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)
fair
i mean i got a month to go over my specification which isnt much time but link me that article, if that isnt a big ask
@misty bison Has your question been resolved?
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
use the previously proved identity
use this form: $2 \sqrt{xy} \le (x+y)$
numbpy (anti glomed)
think what would be an appropriate vale for x and y
yes, you're supposed to use the previous question to solve this one
This is pretty common tactic question setters use
it wasn't necessary but it should simplify
I think you can now see what x and y should be
compare both the equations
uhm
i can see the similarities but not sure what to do
what similarities do you see
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
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 $y$?
as in what we need to sub in for a and b?
We should rather sub in for x and y, because with x and y, we already established an inequality that we know is true
but what does the x+y have to do with this question
_>
is that supposed to be the original form its in
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.
On a much more special case, what happens if y= 1/x?
2rt4a/b.b/a?
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.
how did u go from here to here
The a and b's cancel
I wanted to nosols this but this is honestly beyond just giving an answer
just gonna check the mark scheme for this rq
to see what it wanted
cause i think thats a lot for 4 marks
a lot? this is like 3 lines
well its a little more than what you need to do for a 4 mark proof question
at A level
The explanation makes it look long, maybe. It's just \ [x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy}] sub $x = \frac{4a}{b}$, $y = \frac b a$, then [x + y \geq 2\sqrt{xy} \implies \frac{4a}{b} + \frac b a \geq 4]
oh makes more sense
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
i dont get what the mark scheme did differently tho
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*}
@misty bison Has your question been resolved?
still processing
alr i somewhat get it now just need to practise more of these
actually
why do they do this step
actually nvm i get it i think
thx for ur help
np
Since on the RHS, they have 4ab, and they want 4 instead, as in the problem, so they divide by ab.

I'm stuck in trying to figure out how to solve BE. It seems like I could use the ratios to solve the next one but pls help me solve this problem.
<@&286206848099549185> pls help 🙏🏼

@plain boneyou know similarity of triangles right?
I can't confirm right now. I'm travellin hope someone comes to check that.
6 is right imho
$$AE/EB = AG/GC$$
$$CG/GA = CF/FD$$
$$AE/EB = FD/CF$$
GIven, $FD = EB$ .
$AE = 9$ and $CF = 4$
ok thanks to both of you!

``8. A firm selling CDs finds that the number sold(N thousand) is related to the price (P) by the formula 6p + N = 90.
a. Draw the graph of N against P for 0 <= N <= 90 (the vertical axis should be the P axis, and the horizontal axis should be the N axis)
b. Use your graph to find the price when 30 000 CDs are sold.
c. Use your graph to find the number sold if the price of a CD is set at 8 euros
d. Use your graph to find the price if 90 000 CDs are sold. Is this a sensible value?``

no thats just what the denominator is factored into
the only thing in the way of me solving the equation is this
try multiplying it out
^
the 2y changes the way it factors
^^
what doesnt make sense about it?
because you look for what multiplies into -27 and adds into +3
9 and -3 dont and neither does -9 and + 3
we're looking for something that multiplies into -27 and adds into +3 when one of them is multiplied by 2
im lost
only when the coefficient in front of the squared term = 1
when the coefficient isnt 1, that strategy really doesnt apply
what do i do then
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
yes sorry
so 2(-9) + b = 3 or
9 + 2(-3) = 3
so how does that affect the way i express the equation
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
and just plug them back into this

Is this a function?
wdym
Does the graph represents two different functions?
it can
The question is use the vertical line test to determine which graphs show relations that are functions.
ok..
{... (-1,1), (-1,-1), (0,0), (1,1), (1,-1) ...} or {... (-1,1), (0,0), (1,-1)... } and {...(-1,-1), (0,0), (1,1)...}?
If it is the first one, it isn't a function. If it is the second one, it represents two different functions, y=x and y=-x.

is it an applicable method to any similar problem?
yeah but what about the +3 at the end
i cant resolve it after doing that method?
5h^2 * 3
yes
so is it safe to do that method?
ok it was just a doubt
because i was stuck at this
i had no idea on how to proceed
and i was afraid that i wouldnt be able to do similar problems

I feel like im doing something wrong
how tall are the walls of the box
5?
Yes
where is the 5 in your volume formula?
oh my bad, ok I replaced it now its x= 2.5, x=17.5
so is one of these answers is the answer for the question? because I feel like im supposed to use something else
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?
x * 35 and the length is 5
I am confused man
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?
(x-5) * 30 right?
2 * 5 = 5?
why multiply 2 and 5?
oh okay........so (x-10) * 25?
yes
That would be the shape highlighted in red right?
yeah
5 right?
yeah
what is the length, width and height after you cut out the squares and fold the flaps up?
im not very sure
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
quadratic formula is only for quadratic equations
and cubics are not quadratic
so do you know a potential way to determine the number of x intercepts other than the quadratic formula?
what does CAS refer to btw ?
computer algebra system
its a type of calculator
well actually, you can kind of use the quadratic formula if you factor it into a quadratic times a linear
But is that any different from factorizing though
isnt that factorization tho for the first step?
actually yea nvm lol
you can prolly use fundamental theorem of algebra
to check existence of roots
my teacher pretty much hinted that the quadratic formula is an answer but I wasnt too sure
can the discriminant be used?
hmm, i can't think of a nice way using the quadratic formula other than factoring it first
would the discriminant work?
cubics have their own discriminant thats different from the quadratic
could i just use the cubic discriminant?

why the bottom x does not eliminate or reduce the top x?
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
how do i know when to rest/add them to the top?
$\frac{ab}{ac}$ simplifies to $\frac bc$ as
$$\frac{ab}{ac} = \underbrace{\frac aa}_{1} \times \frac bc = \frac bc$$
