its pretty thick and its honestly pretty interesting
this is why intuition is also pretty important
people think calculus is so hard because they are never taught why things work the way it does
if you understand it intuitively though, its easier to memorize the formulas
yep
thanks for the enlightenment, I'm less confused about calculus now
can I close this?
I assume I can

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
i think i have an idea of how to do it but idk if its gonna work
im pretty sure u can write 2 as e^ln(2)
and then substitute it
This should work
Try this together with some manipulation, you should eventually get to really simple expression
you can do what's called a pro gamer move: ||write 2^ln(x) as x^ln(2)||
Idk how tho
so can i write 2^lnx as (e^ln2)^lnx

I have y = x(x+2)^3, and I'm supposed to find which stationary point is a point of inflection
I've calculated that dy/dx = (4x+2)(x+2)^2
and d2y/dx2 = 6(4x+2)(x+2)
and since point of inflection is when d2y/dx2 = 0, so I know that x=-2, x=-1/2 are both points of inflections
but the answer tells me only x=-2 is a point of inflection
is the answer wrong or am I wrong?
points of inflection don't always occur when the second derivative is zero
huh?
the second derivative just tells you candidates for inflection points
use the original definition of inflection point
which is?
is it when x<a, f''(x)>0 and x>a, f''(x)<0?
where a is either -2 or -1/2
is that the original definition of an inflection point?
yes
as long as concavity changes
right but I threw in -2 and -1/2 into f''(x)
no wait
I threw in -2.1 and -1.9 along with -1/3 and -2/3 into f''(x)
and both candidate x fulfilled this ^
how is that possible?
,w diff (4x+2)(x+2)^2
,w does 6(4x+2)(x+2) equal 12(x^2 + 3x +2)
your second derivative is wrong
oh
hmmm
let me take a photo of my workings
ohhhh
i know where i messed up
my bad
oh actually i wanted to confirm another thing
there
is the notation du/dx and dv/dx here correct?
since it's now going from dy/dx to d2y/dx2 and not y to dy/dx
should it be something like d2u/dx2?
that all looks right
so i dont need something like d2u/dx2 and d2v/dx2?
nope

The change is not that polar coordinates
It can be
$$\begin{cases}x=2rcos(\theta)\ y=r\sin(\theta)\end{cases}$$
Categorist
Because you want to simplify
how do you mean by simplifying
$\frac{x^2}{4}+y^2 = \frac{4r^2\cos^2(\theta)}{4}+r^2\sin^2(\theta)=r^2$
Categorist
If you don't put 2, then 4 does not appear so the 4 in the denominator is not simplified.
(2rcos(§))²=4r²cos²(§)
It's x² with x=2rcos(§)
If you want a name to this. It's called elliptic coordinates.
where did the 4 come in the numerator
2²=4
oh yeah you put the 2 so they can cancel out each other
If x=2rcos(§) then x²=4r²cos²(§)
thank you so much brother
Exactly
now I understand
Thanks so much brother @lime bobcat
It's the same for eliptic coordinates, hyperbolic coordinates and so on
I really got stuck on this for almost 2 hours
indeed
No problem, it happens to everyone

need help with this, im not sure on how to differentiate when i get 2x^2y
Use product rule, like (2x^2)(y)
d/dx x^2 = 2x right
yup
you can do the same with the parantheses here, but since there's an inner function you must also use chain rule.
so i should take y-x^2 as the chain rule subject?
f'(g(x)) * g'(x)
g(x) = y-x^2 or?
yes
ohh alright
honestly you might not even need to solve completely for y', but after differentiating just plug in x and y
kk gotchu
looking at it, solving for y' is probably easier.
i am lost man
break the problem down into steps
sometimes i would just get stuck on a certain question and wouldnt be able to solve it for like an hour lmao
so first g(x) = y-x^2
what is f(x)
3x^2
weird way to write it, but i understand what you are trying to say, yes.
what is our g'
(y-x^2)'
prime notation is when we are speaking of a definition or unknown derivative, we don't know what g' is yet, show me d/dx ( y - x^2 )
where did y go
-3x^2 * y' - 2x ?
okay give me a sec
-3x^2 = y' - 2x ?
you are forgetting the rest of the derivative.
break down RHS into two functions. f(x) and g(x). f will be the outer function.
f(x) = ?
you need to be able to recognize inner and outer functions pretty much immediately, otherwise you need to review composition of functions.
is it 2y-2x^2 * y'-2x
yes
finally haha
3x^2 = 2y-2x^2 * y' - 2x
fully expand RHS, then solve for y'
3x^2 = (2y-2x^2)(y' - 2x) remember your groupings. you could make mistakes writing like that.
yes, wrote it like that in my copybook
cool, so expand and solve. lmk if you get stuck.
you got the spirit, but no. can you show me your work?
you should fully expand RHS instead of trying to move the factors around
hmm okay
good practice for the future. there will be... so much expanding in later calculus. 
yep... expecting it haha
is this how you expand it
I just don’t understand how this helps
looks good
now factor out y' from the terms that contain it.
then solve for y' from there.
with more practice you'll realize that sometimes you gotta make a mess before cleaning up. i had the same instinct you did in calc 1
why the parantheses
no fun, only math
and you got a sign wrong i believe.
did you do something differently from this?
see, be careful. always write things out fully even though you're gonna write it 80 times throughout the problem
yeah got it
can you find the slope now?

sure why not
👍

use remainder theorem
Ye but how do I solve for m and n
you'll have two variables (m and n) and two equations
so what would the 2 equations look like
What does the remainder theorem state?
r = 14 and r = 68
I mean the general statement of the theorem
idk im learning it myself
Here you said you know it, right?
i js know that divisor would turn into 1 and 2 when u change the root
MMh I don't know what you're talking about actually
x-1 would turn into 1
and x-2 would turn into 2
do i solve this twice
or is this possible with one equation
so one with x-1
and one with x-2
If you have a polynomial P(x), when it is divided by (x - A) it gives a remainder of what? @maiden swift
No, you are forgetting what the theorem states
it would be equal to P(x) right?
A remainder can't contain an x, so no
then idk
What remainder theorem did you learn? Maybe it's in a different version of the one I know
Can you send the statement if you have it in your notes?
Ok, send that one
However, do you have any book which you are following? If yes, I'm pretty sure there is the statement
mcgraw-hill workbook grade 12
No, this is not about that theorem (moreover I can't read well there)
I'll better tell it you, the remainder theorem states that if you have a polynomial $P(x)$, when it is divided by $\left(x - A\right)$ it gives a remainder of $P(A)$
Alberto Z.
Go on page 123, on the top there's this version of the theorem
Yes, I've just searched your book online and your version is a little different, but still the same
You should have this in your book, do you? @maiden swift
You told me you follow mcgraw hill workbook grade 12 math textbook, didn't you?
here @maiden swift \
oh ty
yea its different than the workbook
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
Ah ok sorry
sure
@maiden swift is this on your book?
Its not the same lol
It's McGraw hill
There's 2 versions
One is the actual textbook
And one is a workbook
Oh my god lol
I'm using the workbook one lol
Ok, in general I believe it's much better if you study from a theory book, not only the workbook

Hi, I need help to find a solution to this depressed cubic equation (or reduced cubic as some call it)
I didn't quite understand how I can do it
first take the RHS to LHS
RHS should be equal to 0
next step is to take a way the dominator
which we can multiply the whole equation 32
then u can do it
cuz after that it will be friendlier to do
So 32x^3 - 22w - 11 = 0
x?
I'm sorry, w xd

Can someone please help
How do I differentiate x = 2^t
do you know how to differentiate e^t? and use the chain rule?
I guess that's one way? I was thinking of something else
You can use the fact that $a = e^{\ln a}$
imTypθ
replace a with 2^t and you should get something familiar to differentiate
d/dx a^x = a^x ln a
from there differentiate both sides. chain rule will be needed for the left side
can you please teach me how to use chain rule with logs
the same way you'd use it for any other type of function
d/dt ln x = ?
so you let x = u?
ln x is the same is 1/x right?
because supposedly you want to differentiate wrt t, not x
okay
so after you let x = u you get ln (u)
u = x
du/dx = 1
i still dont get it
do you know the chain rule?
that rule doesn't tell you how to differentiate logs, rather what to suffer
since you're differentiating wrt t, you'll have
$$\dv{y}{t} = \dv{y}{x}\dv{x}{t}$$
ℝam()n()v
with y being the ln(x)
okay so quickly differentiate ln(x) using chain rule
I want to see something
what do you get?
what do you get
d/dx of ln(x) is 1/x
dy/dx = 1/x if y = ln(x)
(NOT what you wrote)
dx/dt, the derivative of x wrt t is ultimately what you wanted to find, unknown atm and can be left as is
thus
d/dt ln(x) = 1/x dx/dt
oh okay
@shy dove can you explain this to me?
i think that's what they used
this is what i'm trying to solve
that property is the end result of applying chain rule
Of course. The point is to transform $2^t$ into something of the form $e^{bx}$, which you said you were familiar with. It's a simple case of doing:
$\ a = e^{\ln a} \ a = 2^t \ 2^t = e^{\ln 2^{t}} \ \dv{t}(2^t) = \dv{t}(e^{t\cdot \ln 2})$
(sorry for latex fails)
There it should be good >_>
imTypθ
See how I used the log rule in the last step? So now you just have e^t, but with a constant, so you need to use the chain rule
Because they differentiated 2^t
if you look at this and continue the work, you too will get 2^t * ln2
what exactly do you find confusing?
they are inverse functions, they cancel eachother
yes
So it's always like that?
technically
you can only take ln of positive numbers
e^ln(-1) is not -1, its undefined.
For the sake of not confusing them more, can we not?
So this is how i get confused
I think it's an important point, sorry
I mean, it is, but not in this context
I don't think they intend to take the ln of a negative number for this problem
why do i keep 2^t when differentiating?
that's the point of the trick, you use the log rule so it's not 2^t anymore, it's e^(something*t)
okay i kinda get it now
because when there's an equation like 2^t i know of the log trick to bring down the t
by using ln
but the confusing part is differentiating e^t ln 2
do i use chain rule?
I thought you said you were familiar with that? What if I told you to differentiate e^(2t)?
wrt t?
yes
you get 2e^2t
Alright, now what's confusing you about ln2 instead of just 2?
there's ln
well, it shouldn't confuse you, because ln(2) is really just a number
so you can deal with it just like you would with 2
Okay so, what would be the result of d/dt (2^t)?
almost
ln 2 e^t ln 2?
technically yes, but the right bit simplifies if you use a log rule :)
these log rules are going to be the death of me
imTypθ
(if you forgot them)
Did you find which log rule to use?
Power rule?
yup!
it might seem tedious now, but once you're done, you'll be able to find a generalization, and know the derivative to (any number)^x
the method i know or learned is taking ln on both sides
but your method is kinda easier to understand
honestly, whatever works best for you. I showed you that method because I think I helped you before and I knew you were ok with differentiating e^x.
yeah i have one last question tho
do you know how to differentiate ln x using chain rule?
I assume you would do something like
$y = \ln x \ e^y = x \ $ implicit differentiation $\ e^y \cdot \dv{y}{x} = 1 \ \dv{y}{x} = \frac{1}{e^y} \$ replace y in equation $\dv{y}{x} = \frac{1}{e^{\ln x}} = \frac{1}{x}$
imTypθ
Does this make sense to you?
no problem :) Also now that you did it once by hand, the generalization for $\ \dv{x} (b^x) = b^x \cdot \ln b$
imTypθ
just copy hole thing + ln(base)
easy to remember :)
That also shows you how the derivative of e^x is just e^x
you made me understand this which i appreciate
can i ask another question?
of course!
You would use implicit differentiation and chain rule yes. I also recommend squaring both sides beforehand
not sure, I never used subs to differentiate
but maybe your way can work too
i don't know how you get back to x from u though
The way I was suggesting was this:
$x = \sqrt{1-e^{4t}} \ x^2 = 1-e^{4t} \ \dv{t} (x^2 = 1-e^{4t})$
imTypθ
This looks much more enjoyable than dealing with square roots
ooh
,w d/dt sqrt(1-e^{4t})
Yeah you get this result pretty easily with my method. Idk about yours though. What did you get taught in class
well I'm not saying it's not a thing, I just have never used it, therefore can't help you with it
okay teach me your method
Well, are you familiar with the terms implicit differentiation?
yeah
Well, the goal is just to make both sides of the equation into something easily differentiable. Since square roots don't behave too nice, I squared both sides, and now I get something much nicer to work with
ah okay
Just try and work from here, send a screenshot of your work when you're done. I'm certain you can do it :)
using implicit differentiation?
Yeah! I don't really see another good way of doing it
and if implicit differentiation is something you're good at, then trying to use it often will make solving problems easier for you
you can also turn the sqrt into a power of 1/2 (which power rule applies to), then chain rule a few more times
oh good point
i think this makes more sense
this is how you get this
you would get the same result with any method you tried
it's alright! If you can remember a thing or two for tonight it'll already be progress! As long as you practice a bit every day you'll be fine!
for sure! Taking breaks is important

Is there a way to do this algebraically?
Besides just inputting the functions into my calculator?
well start with what a log actually is
I think you could convert all of the functions into exponential form and solve.
the base to a power of something, which is the value of the entire log expression, is equal to the other numbe
not sure what to call its placement
but log_5(125) the 125 part for example
so 5 to the power of what gives you 125
3
4
this is essentially what putting it into exponential form means
just you dont have to write it out
Hm okay.
and i would assume its easier to compute than trying to remember how to convert it to exponential form then figuring it out
at least when youre first starting out
So option A would be 4 > 3?

My topology professor gave me this problem and I keep running into a wall trying to solve it. “The Mississippi river is said to be 6400 kilometers long. What does this mean?”
this is a topology question?
it means

Yeah, I asked my prof about it. He said something about cohomology. Idk
👀
is said to be 6400km long
but that's what they want you to think
Lmao fucking with surely with cohomology
your professor has a good sense of humor
A look at topological data analysis with interesting connections to the ecology of large river systems. Part of this came from an REU project of the speaker.
maybe your professor was thinking about the cohomology of the mississippi river as a topological space. possibly use cohomology classes with characteristic classes to compute the volume of the mississippi river as a manifold with finite singularities
maybe the length given in the problem statement is measured naively, and topological analysis is necessary to compute to correct length
That's cool I had no idea, still how did he expect you to know that from what he asked lol
Ahh, I see!
maybe ultimately the problem is a critique of the river length measuring methods used by the National Park Service
No, i thought about that but I don’t think that’s what the professor was trying to get at
Ok I think I got it
Thanks

can someone give me a hint for this
I've been randomly moving numbers around
without any real direction/plan
but I've got these results idk if they're helpful
$\log_{9} p = \log_{12} q = x,(\frac{4}{3})^x = \frac{q}{p} = \frac{p + q}{q}$
nchoosek
a nudge pls
i think what i'd probably do is try and convert everything to the same base
yeah I haven't tried that
assuming this is true, you now have q/p = (p+q)/q
which is enough to solve for q/p
well
thats the bit I got stuck on 😄
everything is a variable and the same variable, how do I solve it there?
oh i misread what you had yeah that should be almost there
starting with $\f q p = \f{p+q}q$
Hayley
yeah and that is $(q + p)(q - p) = pq$
nchoosek
that might not help you much, factoring doesn't tend to do all that much when it's not = 0
this isn't super easy to see
i think if you split up that second fraction it might be useful?
I tried looking at that

i think i know how i would
so splitting up the second fraction you get what like
$\f q p = \f p q + \f q q$ right?
Hayley
yeah
when in doubt
make something a variable
lemme scribble
lmfao im getting a really weird number
I think I was probably wrong about q/p = p+q/q 🤦♂️
I mean fuck it
might as well check the solution
I've spent 45 mins on this already
i get a number involving $\sqrt5$
Hayley
ye
I mean after change of variable its super simple
I just didn't see that for 25 mins 🤦♂️
but ok checking if my math before was right

nice job! you did most of the log work i just came in to help with the weirdo equations
by the way this equation is the golden ratio https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/490557019623915520/1139423591344123924/246857845285453824.png

If the line $x+y=a$ touches the circle $x^{2}+y^{2}-λx=0$ where $\left(a,λ>0\right)$ then find the minimum value of $λ+\frac{1}{a}$
B-eard
What I've tried is\
$x^{2}+\left(x+a\right)^{2}-λx=0$\
$\left(2\right)x^{2}+\left(2a-λ\right)x+a^{2}=0$\
$-4a^{2}-4aλ+λ^{2}\ge0$\
B-eard
you should recognize the numbers 4, 4, 1 in the context of a quadratic
but dividing by \lambda^2 could work as long as you know that's never 0
I tried that and I know it is like (2a+b)^2
But look which coeff is negative and which is positive
it is in the form -(4a^2+4ab-b^2)
oh yeah oops
<@&286206848099549185>
I get a quadratic like
4q+4-1/q<=0
Idt that would help
For context I have the answer (just the answer, no process) which is $\sqrt{8\sqrt{2}-8}$
B-eard
so it seems to me that
there is some square root stuff here
Like we find (λ+1/a)^2

We know that the shaded area = 10unit^2
but the answer states that it should be -2(-10) rather than -2(10)
why?
how can the area be negative?
<@&286206848099549185>
,rotate
the area is negative because it's below the x axis
I dont understand?
The integral is negative, but most commonly we consider the areas to be positive so you have to take absolute value of the negative integral
But why you don't simply calculate this
?
so it's like a fact that any area below x-axis is negative?
or what
because I still dont understand why I need to add a negative to 10
$$A=-\int_1^3 g(x)dx$$
Categorist
I'd calculate the area this way
Sir Edgar
That would be negative because g(x) is negative on (1,3).
huh?
$$A=\left|\int_1^3 g(x)dx\right| = -\int_1^3g(x)dx$$
Categorist
g(x) is positive at (1,3)
how can g(x) be possibly negative on (1,3)?
yep
i am equally as confused as before
never mind I guess I'll just go search and internet and hope I can understand

How to solve this please i need answer for olimpiad
I does not need the answer like yes or no but just need like how to do that
And the biggest problem is how to solve int2sqrt multiplied by root of x
Remember dont give the instant answer but i want step by step
Owh yea integral x/x+1 is x-ln(x+1)+c so what happen if i change to x/x+2
this is just the normal power rule
the 1/(2+x) is u-sub
Owh so its the step one?
I don't know what that means
this one has a kinda fun algebra trick where you can split it into 2 easy integrals
My brain not fluent for some slang
Sorry I'm on my phone so itd be a pain, but "u-sub" is a super common integration technique, you should be able to find good guides online
Okay
Wait
Owh
Its differential?
Or wait i forgot turunan in english
Owh okay so u-sub is derivative?
Owh my god how stupid im
Owh nope thats not derivative but substitution
This is more complex than what i ask but..... I'll learn step by step by seeing the part
Learned from yt
So for integral 2^2✓x
Let see the x
u=x
x=u
<@&286206848099549185> someone please help abaut u subtitution im new at this
Im highschool teenager so the teacher didn't teached u subtitution
Imagine grade 11 stuck on limit
I am not good at math, but I think You should substitute X value in the equation you got

I integrated the first half of this but I foget how to do the 2nd half, I currently have -4u/(u^2 + 5)
can you show the work you've written out
Im pretty sure everything before this is correct, most of it was just solving the 1st half which I wrote in the answer box
I dont think I can solve this by changing it to arctan like I did with the first half
pls just show
makes it much easier to see what issues there are if any and how to continue
Can we just pretend -4u/(u^2 + 5) is the question? It will take a long time to type and I am confident with my work, my only issue is idk what to do next with what I have
pls just show the work you've done
is there a reason why you're unable to do that
take a pic if possible
or reproduce it in paint
do you know how to integrate stuff in the form
$$\int \frac{g'(x)}{g(x)} \dd{x}$$
ℝam()n()v
Ah yes it becomes a log
Oke I think I see what I need to do now 1 moment

if I'm on an equator and I throw a ball west side at the speed of rotation will the ball appear motion less from space (let's assuem there is no atmosphere and the ball does not touch the ground)
rotation of earth of course
depends on your frame of reference
the ball is moving at the speed of earth's rotation relative to me
sure is
but like
from which point 'in space' are you looking at the ball
are you looking at it from a point that's like.. stationary relative to the earth's axis or something
in this case yes the ball will also appear stationary
while if you were in the ISS you probably would not see it as such

@indigo storm Has your question been resolved?
I would try adding and subtracting cosAcosB in the numerator, while in the denominator I believe it's useful to use the fact "a² - b² = (a - b)·(a + b)"
Will it help me to prove?
Let me try it
Sorry, it seems it didn't work, I think of another way to do it
Yep, let me see it
$\frac{cosA}{1+sinA} \overset{t = tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)}{=} \frac{\frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}}{1+\frac{2t}{1+t^2}} = \frac{\frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}}{\left(\frac{1+t^2+2t}{1+t^2}\right)}=\frac{\frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}}{\frac{(t+1)^2}{1+t^2}}=$
Alberto Z.
$\frac{\frac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}}{\frac{(t+1)^2}{1+t^2}}=\frac{\frac{1-t^2}{\cancel{1+t^2}}}{\frac{(t+1)^2}{\cancel{1+t^2}}}=\frac{\left(1+t\right)\cdot\left(1-t\right)}{(t+1)^2}=\frac{ \cancel{\left(1+t\right)} \cdot \left(1-t\right) }{ (t+1) ^ {\cancel{2}}}=$
What?
Alberto Z.
$=\frac{1-t}{1+t} \overset{t = tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)}{=} \frac{1 - tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)}{1+ tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)} = \frac{tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) - tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)}{1+tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4}\right) \cdot tan\left(\frac{A}{2}\right)} = tan\left(\frac{\pi}{4}-\frac{A}{2}\right)$
Alberto Z.
First step @indigo storm
Second step
Third step
That's one way to do it, if you know the parametric formulas with tan(x/2)
Parametric formula?
What are they.
?
These ones, I don't know how you call them
I have never learnt these
I put the wrong image sorry
These are the ones I'm talking about
But I know only
sin2A = 2sinA.cosA
Cos2A
Tan2A
Yesh
I solved it
Finally

that's easiest if you show your work
read the guidelines here
uh no you didn't
you wrote more words claiming you showed work than your actual "work"
yeah, so can u confirm that my answer is correct?

so u dont know how to solve it
and now you've written more words claiming i don't know how to do the problem than actually showing your work

but you chose to argue
no ur arguing with me
who's the troll ¯_(ツ)_/¯
im not going through the hassle with someone who isnt willing to tell me if they know how to solve it or not

How can I calculate the smallest 4 digit number divisible by 3 and when divided by 35 then remainder is 1?
do you have access to the chinese remainder theorem
rip
What do you mean by condenders?
what can the last digit be
I mean i know the answear, I’m just not sure how to get there
1086
1056 doesnt have the remainder 1 when deviding by 35
@lost inlet Has your question been resolved?
did you try listing out the first few mutliples of 35 after 1000 and then +1 to check if it is divisible by 3?
@lost inlet Has your question been resolved?
note that 35 and 3 are co-prime, so you would just have to check at most 3 terms
