how does it transition from the 1st step to 2nd step?
even with integration by parts
u = 300+t, v = cos(t)

On the right track
Should write out p(k) explicitly
Then algebraically get p(k) in your p(k+1) expression. Your last line is close
Or second to last line
Don't distribute the 7 quite yet
mm
damn still confused
kinda seem to have
reverted to the same mistake
cant seem to find whats wrong
You want to prove 9|a_(k+1), you just need to prove 9| a_(k+1)-a_k
Which is (3k+4)7^(k+1)-(3k+1)7^k=7^k(21k+28-3k-1)=7^k(18k+27)
@magic tartan Has your question been resolved?
im not sure i understand
9 | a_k Is the condition
Say a_k=a, a_(k+1)=b
9| a is the condition
Then 9|b if and only if 9|(b-a)
So you only need to show that 9|(b-a). And I have already written the steps already
9|18 and 27

I am not sure how to solve this.
do you know what the sine ratio is?
Like SohCahToa?
yeah
So opposite/hypotenuse
yup
now determine what the opposite side to theta is
and what side is the hypotenuse
Yes
Now make the ratio based on this
But we do not have any numbers how do I solve it?
Its AC/AB
But there are no numbers
You don't need numbers
I put AC/AB it says it is wrong
Did you type in AC/AB exactly?
One second.
lol
Did you notice the tool bar on the bottom? There's a fraction button, use that if you didn't
I just forgot that its case sensitive.
I did no put it make it caps.
It worked now

Yeah, but the product is confusing me
There is no product
So summation of the I terms into the summation of the j terms?
no
It's iterated
the variables are different
Not multiplied
(To solve this problem you divide the square [1,10] times [1,10] into two parts cut by y=x BTW)

i am completely stuck on how to even start on part c)
for a) would P(N=n) = p^n * (1-p)
because we need to make sure that the next question answered is incorrect
for c), using the hint, I assume they want me to use this expression for P(Y=k)

ok so i have 3 sliders that i can drag to select a number. They all go thru 1-4 how many combinations could there be?
would you know how to solve if there were 2 sliders
not wihtout writing every one out lol
11 12 13 14 21 22 23 24 31 32 33 34 41 42 43 44
Is there any kind of structure here
yuh
Could you maybe write it as a table
got example?
11 12 13 14
21 22 23 24
31 32 33 34
41 42 43 44
Kind of like one of those number chart things
so how do we find the number of possibilities without counting them all 1 by 1
the slider goes from 1 to 4, so you shouldn't have zeros there
and we're trying to find a simpler way to find the possibilities without having to list them all like that
yes
hmm im being told multiple things from dif people
my dad said same thign as u
but chatgpt saying 64
looks right aswell idk
4 * 4 * 4 is 64
Don't use chatgpt for math
i think its right
A broken clock is right twice a day
wouldnt it be once day
cuz then its night

the derivative is the tangent line?
the derivative is a formula for the slope of the tangent line on f(x) at a given point, x.
gpt chat told me that the derivative is not the tangent line but an extension that gives information about a given point on a graph.
you shouldn't use chat gpt for math, but it is correct about the derivative not being the tangent line. you can however use the derivative to find the tangent line of a graph

is a kilogram really a "mass"
or do I still need to divide by gravity
the weight is 2 kilograms
so do I divide by 9.8, to find the mass?
So
the equation for free damped motion
$$\frac{d^{2}x}{dt^2}+\frac{\beta}{m}\frac{dx}{dt}+\frac{k}{m}x=0$$
Austin
beta is the damping constant
m is the mass
so m=2 ?
and k is the spring constant
so k=32
no damping is present
so beta=0
Is all of this a correct interpretation of the scenario?
yes then you just recover the SHM equation for a spring
I thought that slugs was for mass
what is SHM?
simple harmonic motion
are kilograms not a measurement of weight on earth?
I am confused because if it was something like
8 lbs
then in this equation
I would use
8/32
as the mass
but it is kilograms
colloquial language would use weight
So, we are sure though that in this scenario I need not divide by gravity?
when you measure yourself on a scale, it's really measuring the force of gravity, then doing the conversion into mass
its bc the scales really are measuring your weight but then accounting for gravity to give you your mass
why is this different than if it was pounds?
in this question, it's given to be mass
wow desync we really are, in sync
π
every equation involving mass is expecting a value in kilograms
what if it uses slugs
this is adding to the confusion Shuri
is this not a joke 
no
slugs are a unit of mass
I think?
or of weight
I just found them in one of these problems
I had to google it
yesthat
sorry, I thought you were joking and done
Did this make sense
no
its just like every calculus thingy
involving trig functions
is in radians
not degrees.
In a similar fashion.
There are some equations which do not work for arbitrary units of mass.
so mass is kilograms?
so slugs is a measurement of mass
(idk which ones)
kg is SI unit for mass
and you could put them in the equations, i misspoke earlier
but we have standard units for a reason
Would it not fail for some thonk
If mass is kilograms, and kilograms are like 2.2x lbs, then how come something with like 100lbs is said to be a mass of 100/32 instead of 100*2.2 ?
it would be 100/2.2 kg right?
no that is not what I have been using for all of these
my textbook tells me that if I am given a weight in pounds
I divide it be 32 (gravity)
to find the mass
it says M=W/G
it's a weight in pounds, so it's 100 pounds of force, not 100 pounds of mass
the problem is that "lb" is sometimes used to refer to both mass and weight
okay but wtf is this then because is this a weight in kilograms or a mass in kilograms?
but kg should always be mass, and newtons for force
when people say they weight X kg, it's a colloquialism
but don't british people use kilograms as weight
yes, but that's because we're used to being on earth's gravity
so mass is proportional to weight
here you have two separate things both called pounds
a weight in pound-force, I believe.
and in ft/s^2 is where 32 comes from...
see this is why I was thinking to divide by 9.8
for meters instead of feet
because kilograms instead of lbs
if your entire question works in metric units
(or SI units)
then yeah, g = 9.8 m/s^2 makes sense
One thing that could clear up confusion is writing down the units for all quantities
and like this for equations
(they should match on both sides)
so, let me ask something here. if g=9.8m/s^2, and I am given a weight in kilograms, do I divide by 9.8
as opposed to I am given a mass in kilograms here so I don't divide
yes
but in a maths question
you shouldn't really be given weights in kg
only newtons
weight aint in kg
bruh
the problem is imperial doesn't have a separate unit for force
it just reuses (the amount of force required to move x) pounds
In natural language/everyday speak, we talk about our 'weight', but we mean our mass.
our weight is our mass times gravity
this is physics right?
that bottom equation with units hopefully makes some sense
lol right now this is just unitsofmeasurementology
cant handle the pressure
yeah okay I don't understand but that's okay because I'm not @limpid turret and I don't need to know physics
I just wont divide
I can solve the quesiton
lol
thanks though Shuri and ZAC and Desync
well its absolutely cursed to take this shit and involve imperial units
what is cursed
mfw slug is a unit
slugs...
me or the question
honestly i ignored you mentioning slugs everytime bc i thought you were joking
lmao none of us knew
bro I was so confused when I read slugs in my questions for the first time
I hate this kind of thing it is so dumb
excuse me for meming earlier...
no worries lol
if I have the equation I can solve and interpret it
but if I have to like disect slugs and mass and weight or whatever
to make the equation
I just would rather die
anyways

i need help
really badly

I need to figure out the y coordinate of the vertex using only this information
here is my answer so far "We have no graph, so we can assume that the x intercepts of the 50 yard hill are 0, and 50. Therefore, the axis of symmetry is 25. The parabola is also a negative as it's going down."
(this is algebra btw)
is there a way i can plug in the x intercepts and axis of symmetry into an equation then find the y coordinate of the vertex?
im pretty sure there isnt enough information, but i still need to come up with an answer somehow
here is what my teacher said
"That's a great start!! So if the x-intercepts are 0 and 50, how would you write an equation in factored form?
Do the same for the second one - act as if that parabola is starting at (0, 0). What are the x-intercepts?"
<@&286206848099549185>
@plush valve Has your question been resolved?
34x - 16x divided by 189x
I agree that there isn't enough information
I'd probably have just used the 50 yards and 25 yards measuring lines and estimate the heights from that
but from that response, it looks like they want something like -x(x-50) to match the x-intercepts
but that gives an absurdly high peak, so add in some scaling or something
not a great question either way imo

apparently 7.5>x isn't true? Do you have to check if the inequality is true every time you solve for one?
Ideally yes, to find extraneous solutions
uhh ok... So like do I have to check for basic ones where there is only x on one side of the equation (like |7x+9|>30)

Given the 2 end points from the diameter of a circle is (4,-10) and (-2,-3), put it into standard form.
(x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2
so I calculated the distance between the two points and divided both axis by two and found the hypothenus, problem's that its the radius length, I seem to be having trouble finding the points which the origin would have to be in
consider the relation between the centre of a circle and its diameteres
I was thinking of adding the halved distance from one of the initial points from the diameter
im not sure which word you're looking for tho
given that green line is a diameter, can you indicate the location of the centre?
diameter divided by 2
distance isn't a point
yeah that was my initial problem, what I thought was, since I know my initial points and I'm able to divide the distance in the x and y axis
like mark it on the diagram,
I would just add them from one of the points
and tell me the reasoning why you marked it in that specific location
i see what you're saying. say the diameter is 4, which means the radius is 2, so you go 2 units in the direction of the "line" passing through the two points to find the center
starting at one point and headed to the other
(don't worry about doing any calculations for distance for what i'm asking)
yeah
and tell me the reasoning why you marked it in that specific location
there's an easier way is what ram is trying to tell you
given between a line such that there are two equal lines in between, you wouldve found the center
that I do not see, although im curious
that was it
midpoint
the centre is halfway between the end points of the diameter
thus you can apply the midpoint formula
ohh
you could utilise the triangle you drew above, which is essentially what the midpoint formula does
hate to break it, its the first time ive heard of it
so that would lead to the center point of it in a plane then?
yes
thanks
I have another situation which im just experimenting on for myself
given that I know one of the points within
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2
and lets say
(-2-h)^2 + (-3-k)^2 = (4.09)^2
is it possible to find the h and k here?
deriving from that with algebraic properties I mean
no

I'm differentiating to find the equation of the tangent to the curve.
But I don't understand this step at the moment.
How did 2xsqrt(x) become 2xsqrt(x) 2sqrt(x) all over 2sqrt(x)
they multiplied by 2sqrt(x)/2sqrt(x)
which is just multipication by 1
and thus leaves the expression unchanged
Oh!

How do I even start this question
@median oar
@icy violet hellu?
Yea e
Yea E
k how far are you aorn
or do you know how to calculate the vertical distance between two functions at any x?
I donβt really know anything in this question yetβ¦
k, well you can start by creating a function that calculates the distance
which would be distance(x) = |g(x)-f(x)|
the absolute value of their difference
Ok
therefore distance(x) = |axΒ²-x|
Is that the line
Yea
k, now we want to know the maximum distance right
between 0 & 1/a
what could you do to find it
Uhh no clue yet..
Differentiate?
yup!
because if we find the maximum points of the function within that interval
we can find out the maximum value of the distance function between that interval
@icy violet now, there is the annoying part of the function having an absolute value
I2ax-1I?
So this question has nothing to do with kinematic
when distance'(x)=0
Yea I get that
uh not really I suppose
except you already have specific memorized formulas for this kind of question
but it wouldn't take long to solve otherwise either
To solve for x do we do anything with the a or no
consider a a constant no
I havenβt learn how to solve between absolute values
oh wait I think this property of differentiation isn't true
solving for absolute values is fairly easy
since you just have to also consider the negative option
e.g. |5x+1| = 2
then either 5x+1 = 2 or -(5x+1) = 2
therefore x = 1/5 or -3/5
Is this formula wrong?
yeah thinking about it we have to do two differentiations I think
to first get rid of the absolute value
so distance(x) = |axΒ²-x|
first case: distance(x) = axΒ²-x
then distance'(x) = 2ax-1
second case: distance(x) = -axΒ²+x
then distance'(x) = -2ax+1
hm it holds true here but I'm not sure if it does generally
yes
same procedure
I'll briefly check if the f'(x) = |[...]'| works
no it doesn't
since the absolute value can decline of course
When I solved both I got 1/2a
yep, which means there is a maximum at 1/2a
well we can take the third derivative
and see that it decreases
therefore it's a maximum
But it says to show its 1/4a
yes you only found the x value
Oh
I get it lol
When u first looked at that question did u think it looked straight foward?
Iβm doing this in grade 11 and this is a scholarship question or paper
And like another question was
But we donβt have to do that
it's a neat one though :)
Closed by @icy violet
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
I think depending on how motivatingly it's taught the progress is faster and thereby the questions can be regarded easier quickly
@icy violet btw rest is just inserting in distance in case it's not clear
|axΒ²-x| -> |1/4a - 1/2a| = |-1/4a| = 1/4a

What's trial 1
@vivid heath ?
well you're given p_total
and have to show that it remains the same before and after
with p = m*v
since there are two objects here:
p_total = m1*v1 + m2*v2
okay allow me to try that!
yup
But ummm... The numbers don't work out seemingly?
Ah, that makes significantly more sense
it was im sorry!
such a mishap would not have happened if the author of the problem was not allergic to equals signs

so i did get 3.0 m/s from that equation so that checks out!
im gonna try to run the simulation again and see why that first ones after collision hit is wrong
when it says after collision is that as soon as the two bodies collide?
it's immediately after the two bodies collide
that super helpful
so thats alot more accurate i believe! haha
well thank you everyone!

Hey differentiation of (X/2) = 0 right?
Derivative of x/2 (with respect to x) is nowhere equal to 0
X = 1 so 1/2 where 2 and 1 are now constant so 1/2 = 0
Differentiation of X is 1
With that logic derivative of any function is 0
So final answer is 0
Correct, so what would derivative of 1/2 * x be?
??
Derivative of x is 1
So derivative of x/2 is 1/2
1/2 * 1
2?
1/2 * 1 is just 1/2
Oh okie
ππ

Every day the value of my $1 portfolio either doubles with probability p, or halves with probability 1-p. What is the expected long run value?
every day your portfolio multiplies by a random variable whose mean is 1.25
Right. But can we express this as a function of p
oh wait no hold on i thought it was a fifty-fifty chance of each mb
2p + (1-p)/2 is your expected value
(3p+1)/2
right that's what i thought too, just taking the weighted average. but the thing is that it doesn't make sense for the boundary cases
consider p=0 and p=1
like if p = 1 the value should be infinite because it's always doubling
for p=0 your thing halves always, and (3*0+1)/2 = 1/2
i'm not asking about the value after just one day
well im describing the effects after a single day
your long run EV will be 0 or infinity depending on whether p is greater than 1/3 or not
let me phrase it this way: what is the expected value on the nth day
this problem seems similar to the rabbit problem,
I rabbit is standing 2 meters away from a tree, each jump he makes covers half the distance between him and the tree.
if the mean multiplier is just (3p+1)/2 then i guess we can just consider the behavior of the function ((3p+1)/2)^n
which doesn't really make a difference actually, it just matters whether it's more or less than 1/3
btw can you tell me the criteria on what bases the amount doubles or halves? or is it random like any one option will be picked?
it's random
well considering a scenario where the amount keeps doubling it'll go on forever
[(3p+1)/2]^n

,rotate
uhuh well what have you tried so far
nothing
Pls just tell me the answer I have 4 questions on this topic then Iβm never gonna do this shit again
so you're never going to need to know how big a room is
nope
or how much paint you need
Iβm just gonna be a a garbage truck driver
Iβm set for life
Now whatβs the answerrrrrrrr
...or what size bed sheets you need π
Couldn't find an attached image in the last 10 messages.
what are you stuck on
,rotate
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
okay so do you know what a is asking you to find?
nope
he wants to edge both the circular and the outside perimeter of the garden bed in timber
can you put that into math terms?
no?
no one here is going to just give you the answer
that's boring
say you have a square
and you want to put wood along the perimeter of the square
and you're given that the side length of the square is 6
can you tell me what the perimeter of the square is?
yep! how did you get that?
it's correct
right. because squares have 4 sides of equal length.
okay so now you have a circle in the middle
and you also want the perimeter of the circle
you're given its radius is 1
can you tell me what the perimeter of the circle is?
yep! more specifically it's 2*pi.
okay so a) is asking you the sum of the perimeters of the square and circle
are you asking about a) or b)?
Nvm
because we're working on a) currently
so b) is asking for the area available for planting. it's a square garden, with a fountain in the middle.
exactly
$A={\pi}r^2$
Wumbo
for the area of a circle
So 35.86m^2
36-3.14?
not 36^2
remember the side length of the square is 6, so the area is 6^2 which is 36
not 36^2
So just 36-3.14
So itβs 32.86m^2
Ez
mhm

Now, do you know the formula for the area of a triangle? We'll be working from that
what does b represent?
let me give you a hint: b is a lenght
of the triangle and square?
if you are not sure, you can look it up = )
ok
How is the looking going?
Maybe I'll tell you this: b is a lenght of any side of the triangle and h is the triangle's height perpendicular to b.
ok i got it
If you set b to the lenght of BC in your picture, you can work out that the area of a triangle is half of the area of the rectangle it's inscribed in. What can we do about this fact?
@nocturne crescent Are you here?
yeah
Please answer
oops, bbl

yes
how to do the caculation

Find the nth term of each sequecne.
,...625,125,25,5,1
Shouldn't it be 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, ... ?
5 power 2?
Those are the powers of 5
yeah
You have 5β°, 5ΒΉ, 5Β², 5Β³, 5β΄, ... so the general formula is $a_n = 5^n$
Alberto Z.
a powered n = 5 powered N right?
$$a_n \neq a^n$$!!!
Alberto Z.
Exponents are above, indices are below

Hey guys I have no idea
Didn't I help you with this yesterday?
Yes
Where I suggested getting it into slope intercept form, y = mx + b
So then what's the issue?
$\frac{12}{-5} \neq -2.5$
dldh06
Do you understand this?
It doesn't matter which way you use, you'll end up with the same graph, if you do the math correctly
When you did x = 1, what did you get?
Wdym x = 1
When you plugged in 1 for x
For which method
?
U told me to use slope int form
So I got
Y=8/5x-4
What do I do after this?
You asked to check the second method
Right here.... you asked about the second image when I asked what the issue was
So the 2nd image is someone else's working and he told me to do it like that
So I'm just wondering
Is both methods correct
.
OK what should they both look like then
Because u told me to use slope int method
Y=8/5-4
You dropped the x
So I start at -4 on Y axis and go up 8 and across 4.
Whoops my bad
And that's not the slope
Yes
Because you typed it wrong here.... it's up 8, over 5
Oh ok
But the process is correct
So the 2nd image
Is that also correct?
Don't worry bout it actually
I jus see if the graph are the same
That's a different way to do it too
.
It does not matter what method you apply
You can apply whatever method that makes it easier for you, whether you want to do slope intercept form or creating a table of values
Well which one is better in ur opinion
You should understand that this is a linear equation
.
You can apply whatever method that makes it easier for you,
An equation that is a line
What I got to do with tht then
.
You can apply whatever method that makes it easier for you
whether you want to do slope intercept form or creating a table of values
But is it only those two methods
There are probably others but those two are the most common ones

Because it's different
No it's not
It's the same process as the last one you did
Is that slope intercept form?
Dude what
What's confusing you?
This is not slope intercept form
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b
So my
You need to make this be y = ...
I never said it was wrong, I said it's not in slope intercept form
Do you know how to manipulate an equation to set that equal to y = ....?
If you were given x + y = 12, could you set that equal to y?
Yea
How would you do it?
You want it to be in the form of y = ...., that means the other stuff needs to move to the other side, how would you do that
What's - -12 equal to?
Are you unfamiliar with what -(-12) would be?
12?
