I need help with b) and c) (fundemental theorem of calculus)
with a) its just by definition, with b) i did a substitution t = u^2
But im not sure i understand how the interval of integration is affected by this substitution
I also have to calculate the derivatives of both
not sure if b) is correct thats what im asking
and for c) i don't know
For b) you should consider the function $H(x) = \int_0^{x} f(t) dt$ and notice that $H(x^2) = G(x)$.
Hexicle
Okay, how does that help me?
This lets you calculate H'(x) directly using the fundamental theorem of calculus
and consequently you know how to calculate H'(x^2) = G'(x)
So, H'(x) = f(x) and then H'(x^2) = f(x^2) = G'(x) ?
No. You need to use the chain rule
I don't even know what C is asking. That's not even a complete sentence.
oh right, its asking what is the minimum and maximum amount of solutions the equation F(x) = G(x) can have?
i was thinking that G'(x) > F'(x) so its increasing a lot faster but for x in (0,1) its not true and a lot can happen on that interval
Is that actually what it's asking? I'm just a little surprised
Well you should differentiate both sides of F(x) = G(x) consider different cases of f(t).
I just haven't seen this asked before, it's not a bad exercise, but it's new to me
i still dont understand
f(t^2)(1-2t) = 0
f is never 0 since f() is always positive so the only solution is t = 1/2
is this right?
@last tendon sry for ping but u are the only one helping me rn
I don't know what R - (0, inf) means
Is that a function with a domain where it is the reals without the interval (0, inf) or is that a function from the reals to the interval (0, inf)
R -> (0, inf)
sorry it should have been an arrow there
That seems fine then
I checked the solution and it says "The equation can have one or two solutions"
There is probably a subtlety I am overlooking with the x^2 term adding a second solution but I would need a pencil and paper and I have neither right now.
I don't see it at a glance and f(x^2) (1-2x) = 0 looks right to me doing it in my head
i mean i can see the problem being that we derived and we lost some solutions, but f is always positive so f(x^2) (1-2x) = 0 this will always just be x = 1/2
I guess F'(x) = G'(x) tells you that 1/2 must be a solution, but you are asking for solutions to F(x) = G(x) and both are even functions

cartesian products
is 5. just a convention?>
wouldn't it be (something from A, nothing)
(nothing, something from A)
why is that equal to "nothing"
or empty set
the x is the cartesian product
so if we have sets A and B with a in A
then we will for example have the elements (a,b1), (a,b2), ..., (a,bn)
and this for all a in A
but since in this case A has no elements at all, we just get "nothing"

@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
pls help me
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
first year of uni, bio engineering
Looks interesting
which of the x is bothering you ?
ahh i see
do you know the expression of work done
in terms of change in the total kinetic energy of the system since we are talking about inelastic collision that is why we are accounting for the work done by the frictional force on the system
thus influencing the change in the kinetic energy of the system
$W=\int F \cdot dx$
[ɸ]=1.618033988749....
@alpine sable
ohhh so F here is our normal force?
oh right
cause the work done is by the frictional force
wait so why do i have equate the kinetic energy to the potential + work done?
cause of Work energy Theorem
collision is not elastic so kinetic energy is conserved
waitttttt so is potential energy + work done equal to the KE?
yah sure
no my brain hurts
so initial KE = final KE
so i get why we have the potential energy
but the work is still confusing
any change in the kinetic energy can be accounted by the work done on the system by any external force such as frictional forcce in this case
aaaaaahhhhh i think i understand so work done is the kinetic energy of the final system
thank you guys for your help!!!

So I’m not sure what to do with this step
do you want to find f'(a) for arbitrary a or do you want to find f'(0) specifically
either way you would plug shit into the limit defn regardless. there's no choice to be made yet

This is probably a mistake i have made due to not paying attention, but I got 2 out of this, while the answer cannot be 2. Here is my work (only took me 20 goddamn minutes to put togheter digitally like this 😕 )
Line 3:
a √3 should actually be 3
Your method works, but it might be easier to start by rationaling the denominator on the first fraction instead, especially since you end up rationalizing in the end

y = secx - tanx/sec x + tan x , what is dy/dx
what?
You should know to put parentheses man
ok (sec x - tan x)/ (sec x + tan x)
!status
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
between 2 and 3
ah
so first,
i simplified y,
rationalise with (sec x - tan x) on numerator and denominator,
you get y = (secx - tan x)^2
turned it into
1 + 2 tan sq x -2 tanx/cos x( as sec x isnt easily differentiable)
upon differentiation,
you get 0 + 4secxtanx -2cos^2/cos^3
and the answer is far off
which is 2 sec x(2tan x - 1)
Simplify your answer
i turn 1 into sec^2 - tan ^2?
that seems like unsimplifying..
<@&286206848099549185> , could you please explain how (2tan - 1) turns into (sec - tan )^2
Have you learned trig identities
yes
Find the one that has both sec and tan
sedc^2- tan ^2 = 1?
Did you use that at this step?
When you say "simplified y"
i did..
..
You said that was the answer
,w expand (sec(x) - tan(x))^2
Does your expansion of (sec(x) - tan(x))^2 match
What is? You're referring to your work and the solution both as "the answer"
thats the answer in the textbook
this is what i got
And where did you do this
i barely used anything but sec and tan lol
plus this is in terms of sec and tan only
You're still doing this
(sec x - tan x)/ (sec x + tan x)
i simplified y,
rationalise with (sec x - tan x) on numerator and denominator,
you get y = (secx - tan x)^2
turned it into
1 + 2 tan sq x -2 tanx/cos x( as sec x isnt easily differentiable)
upon differentiation,
you get 0 + 4secxtanx -2cos^2/cos^3
and the answer is far off
which is 2 sec x(2tan x - 1)
@spiral dirge Has your question been resolved?
What is 2sec(x) (2tan(x) -1? The answer or your work?
You said you did this but I don't see it
that is my work
What does this mean then
Show the answer
it is what i got
it isnt the actual answer
the answer to the problem was 2sec(sec - tan)^2

is anybody able to help me with this question?
Hmmm, well when you are finding volume you need three dimensions (length, width and height). Correct @true acorn ?
And problem a) wants possible dimensions.
What three things multiply to be $4x^3 - 21x^2+29x-6$
jpsz
Yes!
but idk how
Ah, well, do you remember the (x-k) rule?
RRT

no clue
i remember doing something like this
i have it infront of me, but i just cant remember i cant connect the dots
when you have a factor (x-k) you can plug in k to the equation (for x) and find the whole equation to equal 0
oh, you could test values of x and see if any equal 0. but i cant think of a way to work this out without a calculator
So, can you think of a number that you would plug in for x to get $4x^3 - 21x^2+29x-6 = 0$
jpsz
then if you find V(x) = 0 for an x then its a factor, making polynomial division
do i need to do long division tp find a factor
wait i could just plug into desmos right
Yup, so can you divide x-2 out of the polynomial?
ah, now you can use x = 2, so you want to do (x-2)/(4x^3-21x^2+29x-6)
According to a theorem (I forgot it's name), if a is is a root of a polynomial, then the polynomial is divisible by x-a
then from the x^2 polynomial uses quadratic formula
oh shit i think im remembering now
factor theorem :)
rational root theorem?
factor therem?
I don't think we need the name for this
the name is useful to find information when needed anyways
Ok, ok people. Give @true acorn a chance to solve this.
Maclain, can you divide 4x^3-21x^2+29x-6 by x-2?
yeah im doing synthetic division rn
Cool!
Remainder Theorem? :))
Oh yeah
Awesome that's the answer to a!
Now, looking at b what are the restrictions that keep the volume from being negative
when does it stop being negative?
that is some truth
hm, really? when you plug in 1 you get 0?
the volume will be negative if an odd number of factors are negative
yeah when i plug x=1 i get 0
(1-2)(1-3)(4(1)-1) = (-1)(-2)(3) = 6?
are you able to write out the conditions for V to be negative according to the hint above?
oh shoot my bad
should i just keep doing trial and error
well, 2 gives you a zero right?
so that is gonna be one of your boundary points.
What other points give 0?
x-3 and 4x-1
So what values of x?
Yup, so what ranges are viable and which aren't?
well we know that 1 is positive right (6)
YEA!
i think i remember now
WOOOOOOO
holy
thanks for refreshing my memory
that helped so much
holy lets go
youre the best fr
Np, glad I could help!

So im guessing this is not possible XD
this is all valid if 2x+1 > 0
but you also need to consider the case 2x+1 < 0
but since he just defined it as x>2, I think he is good, no?
well that work implies that if 2x+1 > 0, then x > 2
it doesn't mean that x > 2 in the other case
the first line doesn't imply -x + 2 < 0 if the denominator is negative
Sure, but if 2x+1 <0 you still perform the same operation and get the same answer, right?
ah, gotcha. Ya, you are right
wait I dont get it ,what do you mean
2x + 1 < 0
then
-x +2 >0
because that implies that 2x+1 is negative so when you multiply it the < becomes >
I still dont get is
2x + 1 < 0 okay this means 2x+1 is negative so what is the problem
to see the problem, can you explain what you did in order to go from line 1 to line 2?
I multiplied bot h sides with 2x+1
yes
and what happens if you multiply both sides of an inequality by a negative number?
the sighn changes ?
the direction of the inequality changes
the < becomes >
so your second line would be wrong if the denominator was negative
interesting I never saw this interaction
easiest to see with some specific numbers
of course 1 > 0 is true
what happens if you multiply both sides by -1
if you didn't change the inequality direction you would get -1 > 0, which is obviously false
so usually in situations like this where you have a fraction in an inequality and you want to multiply both sides by the denominator, you consider two cases
yep, that's the correct work in the case where 2x+1 < 0
so now you have to interpret your results in the two cases
so I cant just say x < 2 I have to do both
-x + 2 < 0
2x + 1< 0
right, check out the graph of the function
there are two regions where it's negative
x > 2
and x < something (not 2)
you have to work out the latter
okay I got it now I just dont see how there are 2 instance where its negative isnt only one line in negative ?
well everything over on the left is negative
and then everything to the right of x=2 is negative
but you can see for example that at x=1 it's positive
so there's some interval in the middle where it's positive
thanks I got it now !! will have to do few more but I got the idea 👍

Hi, can somebody help me out with this?
so wtf
just subsitute x = -4y-r/3
in 2nd equation
ull get a quadratic
in terms of y
use D=0 for tangency
no need to that
you can find the circle center and then using that radius is perpendicular to tangent line in the tangent point
yea u can also do this
well, the centre is (-5, -13) and radius = 10
then what?
then calculate the distance of center from the given line
do you know the formula ?
the perpendicular distance?
yep
from where to where?
from the center to your line
but I need to make that line tanget to the circle by changing the parameter r on the line equation
I can only move the line
use the formula with r
and then because it should be size of radius
you can solve for r
do you mean this?
your welcome
can you help me with another one?
if i know the solution why not
I need to find the circle that passes through these points
thx ly
ok
so you know that the perpendicular bisector of the chords of circle pass throug its center
do you know what is a perpendicular bisector ?
not really
ok
@swift sequoia
Do you know the general equation of a circle?
Yes.
First, create 3 equations and form a triple simultaneous equation.
For the first equation, substitute in the first point into x and y.
Repeat with the next two points with the next two equations.
Now, use algebra and/or simultaneous equations to solve for h, k, and r.
yeah this is a good solution too
Substitute your h, k, and r values into the formula to find your general equation.
(0-h)^2+(0-k)^2=r^2
(0-h)^2+(5-k)^2=r^2
(5/2-h)^2+(5-k)^2=r^2
like this?
Yes.
Now solve for the three unknowns.
ok, then solve for the rest
Once you have all three, substitute them back into (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 to find the equation.
yes, thank you
thank you so much
No problem. Is your question resolved?
I think it is
Glad to be of help.

I need help with this problem
Can you solve that for k?
maybe you can multiple x^5 in two sides and write it (3x)^5 = e ^kx
then get a ln from both sides and then solve it
i dont know if this works
or not
I know that's the info you have.
Do you know the steps needed to solve that for k?
I can
k = ln(243x⁵) / x
right, but i don't know what to do with that
I thought that would be more illuminating, haha
We can do this:
k = 5ln(3x)/x
k = 5ln(3)/x + 5ln(x)/x
cant we just sketch its graph ?
and see what is the range of our function
Yeah. Basically that. But I assume we can't just use tech
When x = 1, k = 0
When x approaches inf, k approaches 0,
So there's a maximum somewhere
yeah
how to aproximate the graph is out of my knowledge but if you can the problem is solved

We can use differentiation . . . ? I don't think I get the question.
What is a transcendental function?
I mean, if the function is differentiable the number of possible tangents from a certain point are basically infinite.
thats not true
See.
but you cant
You can use smaller and smaller increments and get a new tangent every time.
I said if the function was differentiable.
Is that not 200 different tangents all taken from different points?
It's possible.
no
what about a cubic
thats a differentiable function
but the number of possible tangents is limited
You said from a certain point.
??
function from a certain point
yeah like (1,2)
u have a set of points
ur misunderstanding
the question
im asking rn
This question has gone a weird direction. What did you want to know? Other methods from geometry?
Oh I see
and if the function is a polynomial i can prove it algebraically
Oh I got it.
The number of tangents that pass through a certain point
Yeah.
so this isnt my question
Yeah I get that now.
Sorry had to got for a bit. But basically you find the equation for the tangent line of the function and then plug in the x and y values of the specific point and solve for the remaining variable.
Ping if you didn't understand.
@noble frost Has your question been resolved?
that works if you have a calculator
look at log(x)
you cant solve the eq without a calculator
ill just ask in other sites

Person's base swimming speed is 5 mph
person can swim 4 miles up stream in the same amount of time that he can swim 16 miles down stream.
The homework assignment wants you to use direct and inverse variation
I can solve the problem using a system of equations but I have no idea how to solve the problem using k=xy and y=k/x
So far I got
4=(5-c)t
16=(5+c)t
for the person swimming up and down stream respectively
so what is the rate of water?
Also I am trying to set each side equal to t and solve for c that way but it doesnt seem to be working
wait i am a moron
i still need help
but i just figured out what i was doing wrong with the t part

why
why what
these are isosceles triangles
I don;t get it
would you know what the angle BCD is?
what can you say about the line segments BC and CD?
perpendicular
but yes to the others
seeing as those are right triangles and isosceles, you can deduce the triangles are 45 45 90 triangles
you should be able to figure out the side lengths from this alone

I have no clue
What does it mean for a function to be odd?
Can you give me an example of an odd function?
f(x) = x
Why is that an odd function?
it holds for any x value
What holds?
What is the definition of an odd function, to you?
the equation, in the domain of f it will hold for x and -x
That is not what it means to be an odd function, I don't know what you mean by "it holds"
thats what my notes say, im not really sure ig
I think you are forgetting a key piece
What do you think your notes mean?
an odd function, has the property f(-x)=-f(x)
Can you tell me what this means?
your function, y=x, was an odd function, because it has that property
But what does that property really mean
in simple terms
Basically, the function is unchanged if you rotate it 180 degrees about the origin. Whatever value y is to the right of the y-axis, it is the negative version of that the same distance away to the left of the y-axis
,w plot y=x
for example
f(1)=1
so f(-1)=-1
you can think of taking the function on the right hand side of the y-axis, and just flipping it about the y, and then the x- axis's and that will be what you get on the left hand side of the y-axis
so another example
,w plot y=x^3
can you see what it means to be odd?
yes, its symmetric around the origin
so rotating it 180 degrees maps the graph back onto itself
so looking back here
what do you know about the value of the integral of f(x) from say -2 to 0
is the area on the left the same as the area on the right? (over symmetric bounds)
or is it the negative version of the area on the right?
shouldnt it be negative since its below
Remember that $\int_a^bf(x)dx=\int_a^cf(x)dx+\int_c^bf(x)dx \forall c\in [a, b]$
yes, it should
Frosst
so, the value of $\int_{-2}^{0} f(x) dx = ?$
AustinU
-5
and the value of $\int_{0}^{2} f(x) dx = we know is?$
AustinU
5
you didn't finish answering my second question about the last question
?
it is the same isnt it
its just being done seperately in the first one
theyre symmetric around y axis
yes
for this one, since the integral from 0 to 10 = 4
from -10 to 0 it would also be 4 right?
yes
then adding the sum of that would be 8
yes
okay thank you, ima do some more practice on them
The two things that you just realized here is
the integral from -a to a of an odd function is zero
and the integral from -a to a of an even function is 2 * the integral from 0 to a
these are nice properties to know
good work!

hi, sorry for the noob question but where is the modus button on the sharp calculator? i need to calculate stuff like 23%7 etc, but the 2nd function % gives me ERROR 1
but when i type 27 then press 2ndF % it gives me ERROR 1
oh i see
is there a function for that or do i need to do it manually? e.g. 23-(3*7)
i’m not sure, i don’t know this calculator
but something with small numbers like these should be relatively easy to do manually
true was looking for a lil speed boost hehe

its on by book but it looks exactly like this
the answer is 60 anyways
but i was wondering why
doesnt central angle = 1/2 arc
no, the central angle equals the arc itself,
but also with this diagram it is impossible to tell that angle P is central

im stuck here. No idea how to start
Are you familiar with derivatives and integrals?
I see
I will suggest to review how position, displacement, velocity and acceleration are related using derivatives and integrals
As this will be required information to proceed studying further Kinematics
For now note that velocity is the derivative of position and acceleration is the derivative of velocity
I will have a look into that but i was hoping for someone to help me solve the question as I need them for tomorrow
It's difficult to understand the solutions with clarity if you aren't familiar with these concepts. However, to proceed here, you should find the integral of v to get position s
i've worked it out just to confirm from you guys if its right
s = 3t^3 - 6t^2 + 5t - 7
this was my answer
This is correct. Good job!
thank you very much
its really not that hard once I understood the basics
but thanks again for the advice 🙂

Determine all natural numbers n such that it is possible to cover an n x n board with T tetrominos and odd number of O tetrominos with no overlaps.
How would I solve this one?
What have you tried?
I've tried to find the configurations, but the one I ended up with use even numbers of O tetrominos
I'm still trying to find the configurations
@craggy token Has your question been resolved?
what size board did you do them on?
try a 6 by 6 board
Ah, alright.
is there any restriction on T tetrominoes?
No, there aren't
I've found a configuration using a 6 x 6 board
Using 5 O tetrominoes
can you extend this to bigger boards?
Any more? You should start to see a pattern
(generalizing this configuration)
6 x 6, 10 x 10, 14 x 14
I'm guessing it works when n = 4k + 2 for natural numbers k
(just a guess)
If you found the configurations for those, you can form a proof
what about k = 0?
Could you put your configurations here?
Sorry if it’s kind of messy
just needs to be clear enough to understand
Yea since it uses 1 O tetromino
So for nonnegative integer k
If I extend this board to 10 x 10, i can replace any 4 x 4 square I see with those 4 T tetrominoes
Yes, but are there any gaps?
yes
no there aren't
then can you draw the configuration for a 10x10 board?
Alright, hold on.
because this is to confirm a describable pattern
My thought is that, for an (4k + 2) x (4k + 2) board, I can replace any 4 x 4 i see with those 4 tetrominoes, and it'll leave an (4k + 2) x (4k + 2) L-shape that I can fill with odd number of O tetrominoes
just realized, if there’s no restriction, then can there be 0 T tetrominoes?
Yes
then it’s much easier to prove that n = 4k + 2 can be filled
for n = 4k + 2 the board will have an area of (4k + 2)^2 = 16k^2 + 16k + 4 = 4(4k^2 + 4k + 1) which is divisible by 4 (the area of an O tetromino), so we would need 4k^2 + 4k + 1 number of O tetrominoes, which is clearly odd
Is that what you mean?
assuming there are no T tetrominoes
the idea is right
but being pedantic, I will point out that the area being divisible by 4 doesn’t necessarily imply that it can be filled by O tetrominoes
for example, 1 x 4 rectangle
other than that, this is correct
how about odd n and n = 4k?
have you tried proving/disproving fillableness for n = 1 and n = 3 and n = 4? small cases are easier
yeah
can you extend those proofs to bigger numbers?
n = 1 clearly can't, because we have a 3 x 1 and 2 x 2 tetrominoes
n = 3 also can't because a 3 x 1 tetromino and 2 x 2 tetrominio will leave no room for other tetrominoes, and will leave gaps.
n = 4 also can't because we would require even number of O tetrominoes (even 0, if we are using 4 T tetrominoes)
how can I do it?
or you can prove the simpler/weaker case of having no T tetrominoes
what have you got?
I'm using the idea of the areas again.
for odd n, i can prove simply for n = 1 and n = 3 that it does not work. For odd n >= 5, I can say that n = 2k + 1 will have an area of 4k^2 + 4k + 1. I can try to cover it with O tetrominoes and T tetrominoes, but it will always leave gaps that can't be filled (for example, an L shape with dimension 1 x (2k + 1)).
for n = 4k, i can say that it will be filled with T tetrominoes and no O tetromino at all, or even number of O tetrominoes, which defies the question's requirement.
is it good enough?
i'm not sure for odd n >=5 though
just realized, for odd n, you don’t even have to consider gaps: just use divisibility by the areas of tetrominoes
for n = 4k, there is one last hole to fill in the proof(actual, not pedantic): how do you know the T tetrominoes can’t make any other square than 4 x 4?
what do you mean? like can't it make a square with other dimension?
like what if it can make 6 x 6 square? then your claim wouldn’t be valid for 4n
@craggy token Has your question been resolved?
you could consider different arrangements of T tetrominoes

$x^2 - x \equiv 31 (mod 3025)$\
here's what ive done:
- used chinese remainder theorem to split into 2 equations
$$x^2 - x \equiv 31 (mod 121)$$
$$x^2 - x \equiv 31 (mod 25)$$
both of the equations can be transformed into this
$$(x-6)(x+5) \equiv 1 (mod 121)$$
$$(x-3)(x+2) \equiv 0 (mod 25)$$
ta
first one looks useless
I can see that 6 + 5 = 11 and 3 + 2 = 5 but idk whats next
\pmod{3025} btw
anyway i think you may be best off completing the square here
so like
x^2 - x = x^2 + 120x = (x+60)^2 - 60^2
mod 121
,calc (31+60^2) mod 121
Result:
1
so (x+60)^2 ≡ 1 (mod 121)
and then
x^2 - x = x^2 + 24x = (x+12)^2 - 12^2
,calc (31 + 12^2) mod 25
Result:
0
so you have (x+12)^2 ≡ 0 (mod 25)
wait can you explain what are you doing
i understand this
completing the square
idk what this is for
your mod 121 equation rewrites as $(x+60)^2 - 60^2 \equiv 31 \pmod{121}$
Ann (glomed)
oh that makes sense now
here you do the same trick but shouldnt it be 1
whats "it"
31
like (1 + 12^2) mod 25
nvm
so now we have $$(x+60)^2\equiv 1 \pmod{121}$$ $$(x+12)^2\equiv 0 \pmod{25}$$
ta
x + 12 should be dividable by 5 and x + 60 by 11?
from this i got x = k28 k=1,2,...
and its wrong lol
I remember helping someone with this exact question, what we did was to reduce down to mod 5 and mod 11, try out all possible x, then go back up to mod 25 and mod 121, and then combine back to mod 3025
how would you reduce to mod 5 and mod 11
oh
thats what i got
so have you solved it for mod 25 and 121 yet
im trying to solve for 121
what did you get for mod 11
i currently have (x+59)(x+61) congruent 0 mod 121
cause i used this equation
so this means either x+59 or x+61 divides 121 so x = 60 or x = 62?
I think so
want: x^2 - x congruent to 9 mod 11
0(10) = 0, 1(0) = 0, 2(1) = 2, 3(2) = 6, 4(3) = 1, 5(4) = 9, 6(5) = 8, 7(6) = 9, 8(7) = 1, 9(8) = 6, 10(9) = 2,
so x congruent to 5 or 7 mod 11
which agrees with x = 60 mod 121 or x = 62 mod 121
then what is it mod 3025
i completely dont understand what you did there xd
reduced mod 11, then tried all x(x-1) for integers mod 11
inelegant but simple and the first thing I thought of
but your method looks much better
why only try integers <= 11?
because reduced mod 11
that i get
but what if there is integer > 11 that satisfied x^2 - x congruent to 9 mod 11
oh nvm
you can write x as (11k + r)
so now I have
x ≡ 3 mod 5
x ≡ 60 or 62 mod 121
it seems x can only be equal to 60 or 62
bruh why is this so difficult
nvm
121*(3+10k) + 60 or 121*(10k+1) + 62 would satisfy both equations right
<@&268886789983436800> pls
Sigh
thank you!
ok so i finally conclude that there are 6 solutions <= 3025 which look like this: 121*(3+10k) + 60, 121*(10k+1) + 62 and k=0,1,2
thanks everyone who helped

If the braking force is constant does that mean acceleration is constant?
Yes
Because F = ma
Mass is a constant
And if Force is constant
That means acceleration is constant
What is breaking force?
"braking", probably
