wait
we have (2,5)
left by 2
we have (0,5)
up by 4
we have (0,9)
g(0) = 9
?
but what does he want from us
It’s called graph transformation
Graph compression means 2/5g(x)
Shift left means g(x+2)
Shift up means g(x) + 4
@dense blaze so is it 2/5(x+2)+4? also how would i know the slope of the slope of the line and vertical intercept
you got g(x) to be y = mx + c form
gradient/ slope is m
y intercept is c

I don’t remember how to do this exactly but from what I think I remember I got 8
Is that correct and if not can someone help me
Looks good.
Used ratio of similar triangles.
No.
???
You need to estimate the values of all the line segments.
Wdym?
Assign a value to any one of the sides opposite a given angle measure and use that to calculate the lengths of the other sides.
Isn’t it simply smallest angles opposite is the smallest side
No.
I’m sry but I don’t get it all can you show me what you mean on one line v
use a ruler
??
Are you familiar with the Law of Sines?
Yes
Set BD equal to 1 and use the Law of Sines to calculate the lengths of every other line segment.
While true for one triangle, there are two triangles in the question.
For triangle ABD, you can use that rule to determine that BD is the shortest side for triangle ABD, that does not necessarily hold for both triangles ABD and ACD.
What makes you say that?
BC?
It has to be according to this
How would you mathematically prove that?
👍
Yes.
Ok thanks
What about this question?
I think it’s c
I just don’t get the radius part
Only one with -7 and -3
Correct.
construct lines OA, OB, those are of length r, use the arc's length (120) to find the angle theta AOB, arc=radius * theta
(theta is just the angle)
consider the triangle AOB construct its height which corresponds to the distance from AB to the origin of the circle, use trig to find the height
also notice that triangle AOB is isosceles because AO and OB are the same length r, that means that the height meets the chord AB in a point M, such that AM = MB
actually, mAB=120 means that the angle AOB is 120
that's right, angle AOB = 120°, but now that you've constructed its height, how many degrees is angle AOM?
it is correct but why would you say that?
angle AMO, how many degrees is that?
ok, so now what do you do to find AO?
Sine?
notice that the triangle AOM is right and AO is its hypothenuse
consider angle AOM, it is 60°, now, cosine of angle AOM, what is that exactly, you know the cosine of an angle in a right triangle is the ratio of two sides, which?
Huh
one is always the hypothenuse
so in triangle AOM, what is the cosine of angle AOM?
b/c
that's right, so in our triangle AOM, cosine of AOM, would that be also the same ?
but our b and c are names differently
Right?
yup, so now to find OM, you either do pythagoras or cosine of the angle again
Ummm so 5.76 is ao?
yeah
I got 8.33333333 for om
yeah that's wrong
Oof
what you do
you forgot to sqrt everything
yeah, and for next time you could've also used tan of angle AOM
Oh ok
👍
explain your steps
Yup
that way you find angle APC
So how would we go about this?
The answer?
37
I’ll take that as a yes
yes
Ok nice
You there?
Ye
So for the question above we have one common angle
And parallel sides
the angle in common is?
C
ACB and ECD you mean
Yea mb
Idk about the names tbh, but they share angles, 2 of them are needed for them to be similar
?
@tardy raft Has your question been resolved?
One second ok
Hi ownthpugh
How though
Idk where to go from what you said at all
what have you done already?
notice ABD and CBE are congruent
Yes I noticed
notice also that DAE and DCE, look at the same arc DE, meaning angle DAB is congruent to angle BCE
two angles, similarity
find ratios between them now
Rations between the angles?
no sides
the angles are all equal
the sides of similar triangles are proportional
I give up on this question
I will go to it later
How would I do this I’ve drawn the diagram?
in a right triangle the square of the height relative to the hypothenuse is the product of the projections of the other sides of the triangle to the hypothenuse
DC^2 = BD•DA

Let me see if I understand LU vs PLU.
For any given (square) matrix, we can suppose it can be factorised into a lower and upper triangular matrix, multiplied together, and solve the system of equations given by that statement.
Now we end up with a system of equations to solve for to find out what the L and U are exactly
Then as with all linear systems we can either have no solutions, a unique solution or infinite solutions
So for any arbitrary A, we can have either of these cases
LU decomp can be done when this has a unique or infinite solution set
PLU is needed when the solution set doesn’t exist
And both methods are numerically unstable?
this all sounds correct up to the last sentence, i'm not sure about numerical stability although wikipedia claims that LUP is numerically stable "in practice" if you use partial pivoting, so presumably the same is true of PLU

Where do I start?
wouldnt you just find the taylor series?
Write it in form of infinite degree polynomial. Then do what is asked.
Although i don't really know what is the radius of convergence so i dunno about that.
RoC is solved after you have the summation
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
I found the taylor series but I have no idea what to do next
send the taylor series
yeah
any other patterns?
you dont have to expand the factorial
keep it as n!

✅
x^n-1 ?
doesnt summation start at 0
x^n
yeah
^
send it with the factorial not simplified
dont see any pattern
try to expand it to the 6th or 7th degree at least for the derivative component to see if there is a pattern
(-45/8)/(5!) x^5 + (315/16)/(6!) x^6
i feel like theres a very obscure pattern
something to do with a multiple of 3
and 8
read #❓how-to-get-help
Ohh I'm soo sorry
16 + 8(3(n+2))?
multiplies: 1,1.5,2,2.5,3,7
nvm
how would it be that the 1st and 2nd are the exact same
the 7 throws me off
are you sire its 315
oh
wait its 16
ok so its just 3.5
@alpine sableyeah thats your pattern
trying to figure out how to implement the same term from 1 to 2
itll be something like 1/4(0.5n+1)
no it wouldnt
its like we need a half factorial
cause we will want 1*1.5*2*2.5*3...
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
this "half factorial" could be calculated as n!/2^n if I'm not mistaken
?
^
we would have to shift it forward one though
so (n+1)!/4*2^(n+1)
that might not actually work thought because we would have the right first term
are u finding taylor around x=0?
this should be sequence of derivatives, analyzing what you do at each step it seems like nth derivative evaluated at 0 is simply n! / (-2)^(n+1)
I'd recommend you analyze the process of making taylor series, instead of analyzing the taylor series itself
Spotting pattern in this is much easier, at each step you increase power by 1, change sign and multiply by n
so you can find general expression for derivative
and then make taylor
ah
i just told op to make the taylor series and look for a pattern
lol this would have helped a whole lot
Oh wait, I started with inital expression, so (n-1)th derivaitve is n! / (-2)^(n+1)

So I want to calculate the area, and diameter of the smaller circle for a project but I don’t know how i would go about this, the measurements are 110mm x 110mm for the outer circle but I need to know the smaller one.
please open your own channel. #❓how-to-get-help
post in your own channel
barev
I don't think the circle problem is solvable with your information
so you are asked to calculate the area of the small circle, but you aren't told any info about the smaller circle?
nope
then it is impossible.
is there a picture?
Idk get your ruler I guess
I took it off Google
It’s a basic wheel for a children’s scooter
idk I tried searching for the exact measurements in Google but I wasn’t able to find any so if someone has luck help me out lol
you want to find the white circle?
Yes
we cant help
damn
i think he's trying to buy a scooter? that website just sells scooters
i would guess around 25 mm or whatever
In diameter?
ok but you can only find the area of the white circle provided a radius of either circle / difference in radius
Building a electric scooter
I’m making one myself
so youre buying wheels?
well buy them, then measure the diameter or radius of the white circle in real life xd

how do i separate the a?
i need the y and the constant a to be separated from the x for integration
kinda like y=a(x)
so that after i integrate the x, i can just multiply the constant a back in
i need a process sorta like this
$\int x^2(a^2-x^2) dx = \int a^2x^2 - x^4 dx = \int a^2 x^2 dx - \int x^4 dx$ and then you can just integrate
Denascite
i need to find the area bounded by that
considering a^2y^2, would it then look like this?
It's just "find the area bounded by the given curves and lines" and this is one of the items
take roots and consider both the positive and the negative
a sketch of the situation might also help
good so far?
the thing changed, it's not considering the bottom half anymore.. hmm..
the bottom corresponds to y=-sqrt(...)
oh okay,
where do i go from here?
well now you have two functions
f(x) = -sqrt(...)
and g(x)= sqrt(...)
and you have to find the area between them
thats something you should know how to do
i just integrate this? the constant is still there
well that's the thing, it can't be integrated if it's an unknown constant
i need it to kinda be like this where i just integrate the x's
there is for unknown constants
like what if i wanted to graph the equation first
manually
well then you would pick some a like you did above
but that has nothing to do with solving the integral
you are solving it in general
for all a at the same time
picking a value for a isn't supposed to be part of the process, i just did that to see what the graph would look like and to make sure my algebra is all correct

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
No work currently since I couldnt form an equation out of the question. Trying to figure out how I can put them all tgt 👀
Ok well let's first form the equation for "300 can be produced by a machine that operates at a rate of x packages for every minute"
300 packages can be produced when a packaging machine operates at a rate of x packages per minute. A study found out that when the rate of operation of the machine is increased to (x + 3) packages per minute, the time saved is 5 minutes for 300 packages. Determine the new operating rate of the machine.
go wild
calculate the minutes needed for 300 packages for both rates
And set their difference to 5
x * t = 300?
Yep
Now let's go for the second part. Do you know how to form an equation from " A study found out that when the rate of operation of the machine is increased to (x + 3) packages per minute, the time saved is 5 minutes for 300 packages. "?
(x+3)(t-5)=300?
Let's stick with the varible t, but yes that is correct
Typo sorry
Np 👍
Now you have a system of equations

Sorry for the ping but if u could help me check my answers

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
i take the partial derivatives, i get fx = e^(-2x^2-2y^2) - (4x^2)(e^(-2x^2-2y^2) and fy = (-4yx)(e^(-2x^2-2y^2), set them both equal to zero
the e term is never going to be equal zero
so with the second equation -4yx = 0
i dont know how to proceed from this point
for fx = 0 it's pretty similar
this is what im thinking, the first equation 4x^2 needs to be equal 1 so that both terms subtract each other
so 4x^2 = 1 ---> x = 1/2
so i just plug the x in the second equation?
-4y*1/2 = 0 ?
this is not the only solution
yeah 
no
I made a mistake
yes
but thats not the only critical point? (1/2, 0)

Hello! Notice that 30° is the angle it makes with the vertical line

hello
I don't understand why the general solution to linear diff equation have this C
in the course i'm following they always says you can get rid of constants of integrations
"you just need one"
so im a bit lost
when integrating you get 1 constant at the end
but when solving a differential equation you might integrate multiple times
giving you multiple constants
i got it
equation 2 is the homog.
i dont understand why they omit the constant
it's this right?
they say the solution is just the part without the scalar
what scalar?
no
what they're saying is, if you take x_h as some non-zero solution to the DE (for example 1/2*e^(-int...) would work), then any solution of the DE can be written as C * x_h for some constant C
if you take x_h = 0, ofc you're screwed, C * 0 = 0 for any C
x_h is just some solution you use to express all the others in their thing, doesn't have to be e^(-int...) specifically
but yeah I don't really see why that's an interesting observation either

what would the adjacent of this triangle be?
what rules do you know to relate sides and angles
sin rule
like trig ratios?
things like sine and cosine rule
i know the sine rule
I think this can be done with just sine rule but it's a bit long
what would be the better approach?
you're given two sides and an angle, cosine rule relates 3 sides and an angle, so you can solve for the unknown side length
like the base?
it's much more immediate
yes, I assume that's the adjacent we're looking for here
so what is the cosine rule?
,w cosine rule
hmm not helpful
lowercase letters here are side lengths and uppercase are angles
the choice of c and b are arbitrary, what matters is the angle and opposite side
can do this question with sine rule instead if you'd like
either b or c
9cm would be a if you're applying the rule here, since you only know the angle opposite it
notice how C and B don't show up in the cosine rule
so we only need angle A and the length of two sides?
to use cosine rule?
it's pretty much like sine rule

hello what is the fastest/easiest way to factor quadratics. Like how do I factor $2b^4 - 7b^2 - 4$ into $(2b^2 + 1)(b^2 - 4)$
GamingGods
after getting the roots you can get the factored form directly
if the leading coefficient of the quadratic polynomial is a , and the roots of this polynomial are x_1 and x_2 . then the factorized form of this polynomial is a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)
but sometimes the quadratic formula wont work
like in this case its being negative and you cant have a square root of a negative number
so Ill have to bring in "i" and everything
for example if you want to factor $x^2+3x-4$ you first find the roots which are $x_1=1 and x_2=-4$ and $a=1$ here then the factorization of this polynomial is $(x-1)(x+4)$
calculus is fun
if the roots are complex then the polynmial can't be factored in terms of real numbers
but you can still factor it using the roots and its factorization will be complex not real
for example if you want to factorize $x^2+1$ then using the quadratic formula the roots are i and -i and the leading coefficient is 1 which leads to the factorization $(x-i)(x+i)$
calculus is fun
$2b^4 -7b^2 -4$ factored is $(2b^2 + 1)(b + 2)(b -2)$ but, if you solve it using quadratic formula, you will get an awnser that has an "i" in it.

wait a sec

?
you dont hve to get the values of b which give the zeros of this polynomial
you just have to get b^2
use the quadratic formula for b^2
you can get the values of b and it will still be true
the values of b that you will get are $sqrt(i)/2,-sqrt(i)/2,2 and -2$
calculus is fun
with the leading coefficient being 2
This is too hard for me. Im trying to figure out how they went from $2y^2 - 7y -4$ to $(2y+1)(y-4)$ in one step. They first tried to find multiples of 8 which were 2,4 and 1,8. They circled 1,8.
GamingGods
thank you so much, @tepid drum
wait i made a miscalculation here
np let's work this step by step

I'm currently struggling with making an equation or function of some sort
I have T, as in time, which ranges from 0 to 750 (with the step being 1)
And I need it to return Y
Y should be -160 at T = 0
Y should be -360 at T = 375
Y should be -300 at T = 750
I don't really have the knowledge to do this so if you can direct me it'd be great
what kind of behavior do you want the function to have?
Aight
ok so the quadratic equation going through those points isn't very nice
0.00092444444444444x^{2}-0.88x-160
Planning to implement this into javascript and the previous attempts were not to liking at all
Doesn't have to be
Ok
(Prefer floats)
hm
Avoid big nums pretty please though
26/28125*x^2-8/9*x-160 seems to be want you'd want, anything else is going to get pretty annoying to figure out
and it doesn't get too big
here's a graph in desmos
messy numbers but it hits all the points you wanted
yeah seems about right
if you don't want as big of decimals you could always round
ok
uh wait
i messed smth up
give me a second lol
26/28125*x^2-22/25*x-160 here's the right one
Thanks
Different topic
I happen to get this issue a lot
Like, I want to make e.g 0 - 500, 0 - 1
250 being 0.5 etc
How would you do that?
divide by 3750 and add 0.5
3750

I need some help making a linear system for question 10
So I have to subtract 25km?
no
write the equation what represents:
total distance travelled is 25
(looking at the diagram only and nothing else)
It wants the distance from home to cabin one
I know
And cabin 1 to cabin 2 wich I got x+y=13
and to find that ideally you set up equations representing what you have
(looking at the diagram only and nothing else)
K
forget about what you just got
So I need it to =25
focus on doing ONLY
write the equation what represents:
total distance travelled is 25
according to the diagram and I repeat ONLY the diagram,
what's the expression for the distance travelled
2y+x=25?
no
overthinking
I'm so confused 😭
O
do exactly as I've asked and nothing else
How do I write that equation again
according to the diagram and I repeat ONLY the diagram,
what's the expression for the distance travelled
We just learned it today in class so I'm confused
how much from
home to 1
1 to 2
2 to 3
3 back to home
Home to 1 is x
1 to 2 is y
2 to 3 is y and 3 to home is 5
X+2y+5?
lowercase X but yes
O ya mb
and you are told that's equal to 25
Yes
though unsimplified all I wanted from you was the equation
x + 2y + 5 = 25
you can simplify that setting that up, apply the basic principle first
you now have a system of equations which you could proceed to solve with substitution or elimination
Haven't learned that yet
We learning tmrw
He just wants use to use the valyes
Values*
So do I do that
For the solutions
Ramonov is saying you can get another equation by summing the distance from home to cabin 1 then from cabin 1 to cabin 2
this distance is given in the problem
use the picture and the given number :)
if you want to check with option is correct, then just substitute
check whether
the x + y is actually 13
AND whether
x + 2y + 5 is 25 (or x + 2y is 20)

Hello. i just want to know if I am correct. I did some mapping notation.
f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2
(x, y) → (−x-2,3y+2)
is this correct?
What do you mean?
transformation shifts the graph horizontally by 2 units to the right.
transformation stretches the graph vertically by a factor of 3.
transformation shifts the graph vertically by 2 units upward
Reflection across the x-axis
like, how f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2 modifies (x, y)
do you mean how f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2 relates to its parent function x^2?
yes, thats what i mean
ok, is f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2 a function you came up with trying to map these transformations?
no, vice versa.
ohhh ok
i got this from the equation
in that case you hit all the marks but there is one transformation you shouldn't have
uummm...
idk which one it is though.
f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2
it shipts up 2 units and 2 right
streched vertically by factor of 3 and it is reflected
what makes you think its reflected?
f(x)=3(**-**x+2)^2+2
the - that is in front of x
Isn't it reflected?
if it was reflected there would be a - distributed to the whole equation. not just the x
oh crap, i need to factor that one out dont i?
i graphed it so it doesnt appear to be
so what would that '-' mean
well id imagine it was placed there to trick you
i graphed it with desmos,
when i erase the '-', it relfects over the y-axis
i got confused 😅
you cant just "erase" the -
i did it to see what changed in the graph
ohh nvm
Yeah
nope
🤔
like i said you cant just erase a - without making the equation change
it is still the same equation. the '-' in f(x)=3(-x+2)^2+2 is not affecting the whole equation as you said
here, think of it this way, gimme a min
👍
ok we have $3\left(-x+2\right)^{2}+2$ lets factor out a -1 from $(-x+2)$
Judgemental Snail
if we do so we get $3\left(\left(-1\right)\left(x-2\right)\right)^{2}+2$
Judgemental Snail
Oh you did it that way
Ok I get it
lets distribute the ^2 to both multiples
we get $3\left(\left(-1\right)^{2}\left(x-2\right)^{2}\right)+2$
Judgemental Snail
Judgemental Snail
which is literally just $3\left(x-2\right)^{2}+2$
Judgemental Snail
now if you want to map the transformation now it would be less confusing considering the - is gone :)
oh, ok
does that clear things up for you?
im glad :)
np :D

@hard aspen Has your question been resolved?
@hard aspen I think it can be done in a much easier way. Here is a hint - Any square of an integer is either of the form 4k or 4k+1 where k is any integer. Find a contradiction using this.
Don't think so
@hard aspen Has your question been resolved?
This might be it....|| RHS is the multiple of 3 where as LHS is not ||
hmmm? p = 3n?
i did something similiar here tho, expressing perfect squares as 3m or 3m+1
_basudev
however, (x,y) = 1. so it cannot be 3k
i proved it here though i have no idea if its correct
I don't think greatest common divisor has a roll over here
I tried something
but I don't know if this is helpful or not
that does seem correct
this is the solution provided. i cant make heads or tails of it tho
