After graphing it in desmos, i can see that is 0 yes
But how do you find that alebgraically?
Yea it says evaluate using squeeze theorem
maybe u could squeeze it with x^2-9 and -(x^2-9)
cuz like the equation is kinda like the piecewise of -(x^2-9) for x < 3 and x^2-9 for x > 3 or smth
I don't understand, how'd u come up with a piece wise function?
well u said the right side is a step function and thats correct
another way u can write a step function
is as a piecewise
like (x - 3) / |x - 3| is -1 for x < 3 and 1 for x > 3 right?
well since the other part of the expression doesnt change so abrupty (not piecewise) we could multiply the -1 and the 1 to get the piecewise of the entire thing
right cuz x^2 - 9 is just a parabola

oops what
And multiplying it by the other one since they should be equal

yeah
Hm
I understand what you've done
But where are you going with that?
How do you "trap" the function to apply squeeze theorem
well since its a piecewise of two functions
u can squeeze it with those functions
x^2-9 and -(x^2-9)
both of which are 0 as x approaches 3
yeah
As x-->3
yeah
Na it helped
not the best at explaining
Thank you

I have no idea if this is right or wrong but it seems very very wrong can someone please help?
@broken compass Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
@broken compass Has your question been resolved?
Which line if the x + y >3 constraint?
Made any progress?
@broken compassI get the line for 20y + 8x <= 100. That seems good. Which side of this line are we looking?
not sure the objective function should be an inequality. the one you gave would only be true if you had 1 veteran and 1 high schooler, any more than 1 of each would make your statement untrue. i think it may be better to write it as a function, like f(x,y)=200y+50x, where f(x,y) is your number of items shelved.
also where did you get the y>=x+3
@left isleMaybe if they come back, we should start at the beginning and get the constraint lines correct first?
If they come back.

I know how we found the denominator in this one but how do we know what the numerator is and how does that relate to the oblique asymtope
sick, never had an image act like a moire flashbang before
also you find the asymptote by doing polynomial long division
yea but like how do you get to x+1 x-1 in the numerator
you’re straight up given x intercepts
plug them in and check that (x+1)(x-1)/(x+2) =1/2 and you’re immediately done
(if not then you multiply by a constant)

is the first step
intergrate the function 0-5?
1 + x² = y
2xdx = dy
60xdx = 30dy
i did like that much
yup, id agree, though the substitution isnt necessary
im not sure what you did there actually
in which step
nvm, i see
but it doesnt really work i dont think
dx=dy/2x
but then you just have a 1/2x in your integral, and replacing it with a function of y gets messy
id just integrate it wrt x, its a simple one to do
ah i see, but even then, still just do wrt x
it would be 60 * int (x+x^3) dx not bad
i wouldnt do a sub unless its really necessary
no worries
give me 120 seconds
very specific
,w integrate (60(1+x^2)) between 0 and 5
nice
woah
thats cool
so
how would i write the answer to the problem
@jagged cobalt would i write "the min monthly charge that should be added to cover a 5-year lease would be $2800"?
$2800 is the cost of the whole 5 years, not a monthly charge
you have to split that 2800 across 60 months
oh righttt
Minimum monthly charge for a 5-year lease = 2800/60 dollars per month.
?

okiee
Between 2000 and 2015, 18765 billion cubic feet of natural gas was consumed
is about as compact as it could be
m(x) is minimum at x=-3, so are we supposed to integrate s(x) from -3 to 0?
x cant be negative
what you want to do is find when m(x)=s(x), this will be your upper integral limit
then integrate s(x)-m(x)
,w solve (x^2+6x=360-2x^2)
not quite no, youre integrating s(x)-m(x) from 0 to 10
since thats the net savings (rate)
whats this
thats just solving s(x)=m(x)
i got 2300
,w integrate (360-2x^2-x^2-6x) from 0 to 10
nice
yayyy
rereading the question, the answer is just the 10 lol
but youve provided how much the net savings actually are, so bonus marks
to bad i dont actually get bonus marks
doing the same thing here, finding the value of q where both are equal?
@jagged cobalt
I got that bc it says that there needs to be 3 employees total working at a time
azoooooooooooooooooooooooo
:((
i dont gets it
q = 52.7 for supply = demand?

hi
what help tell
(Q) is the symbol that is used to represent rational numbers. Rational numbers are sometimes called fractions. They are numbers that can be written as the quotient of two integers. They have decimal representations that either terminate or do not terminate but contain a repeating block of digits.
this q is different

what have you tried and where are you facing difficulties
tbh i don’t know where to start
is it the coefiencts ?
yeah
okay i’m just confused on how to get the w,x and z
\[
\begin{alignedat}{7}
2x && {}-{} && 4y && {}+{} && 2z && {}={} && 2 \\
-4x && && && {}-{} && 2z && {}={} && -2 \\
x && {}-{} && y && {}+{} && z && {}={} && 3
\end{alignedat}
\longrightarrow
\left[\begin{array}{@{}rrr|r@{}}
2 & -4 & 2 & 2 \\
-4 & 0 & -2 & -2 \\
1 & -1 & 1 & 3
\end{array}\right]
\]
as an example
yes yes yes ok
it's fine can you please just set up your matrix first and we can start working on that
your matrix should end up looking like this:
yes!
okay so row reduction has like 3 things you can do
what you can do is apply the replacement part first
you want to get echelon form to begin with for your matirx
do you know what echelon form is
is that all zeros at the bottom ?
not sure what you mean by "bottom" but this is the principle of it:
so you want to make a zero appear under what we call the "pivots"
do you know what a pivot is?
no
"A pivot position in a matrix is the location of a leading entry in the row-echelon form of a matrix. A pivot column is a column that contains a pivot"
you use this pivot to do all your calculations
ok ok
okay okay
now
I'll try to guide you
[ \left[\begin{array}{@{}rrrr|r@{}}
\c g 1 & 1 & -1 & -9 &-2 \
\c r 2 & 3 & 2 & 16 & 11 \
2 & 1 & 2 & 4 & 5
\end{array}\right]
]
the green 1 is your pivot
yes yes
you will use that to eliminate the 2 in the red
ok
okay now an algebra question for you
shit
what do you multiply 1 with so that when added with 2 it gives you 0?
equivalently,
1x + 2 = 0
find x
all of the numbers ?
yes
it's equivalent to doing
-2(x+y-z-9w) = -2(-2)
this is just a 1 degree equation remember
so the algebra is all the same
ok
so multiply and distribute as you would otherwise
yes great
ok ok
we care about the coefficients since this is a matrix
so
-2 -2 2 18 -4
now
add this row
with the second row
what do you have
I think your last one is wrong
-4 + 11?
ah yes it's here. it should be 4 not -4
this seems fine
so niw
[ \left[\begin{array}{@{}rrrr|r@{}}
\c g 1 & 1 & -1 & -9 &-2 \
0 & 1 & 4 & 34 & 15 \
2 & 1 & 2 & 4 & 5
\end{array}\right]
]
you eliminated your first position
we leave the last row alone?
continue repeating this process
no
it's time to eliminate the 2 in the bottom left
ok
I have to go now sorry
by the way this is called a wide matrix. You will realise this system of equations has a property that always holds
okay
I want you to figure it out yourself
and yes continue
your pivots are always among the diagonal
so eliminate everything else other than your pivots on the column

i would change them to a common base, yes
how can i do that
@hushed locust
use the change of base formula to change the base of one to match the other
you could also just evaluate the expression no?
thanks
that's what i did
$$ 2(\frac{1}{2} + 2)$$
i forgot that change of base formula lets you change the base to anything you want
Bananas in the sky
i thought it had to be just normal base 10
well for mental math
i had to change the base to 3
since log base 3 of 3 is 1
no but you can look and evaluate those logs
and log base 3 of 9 is 2
you dont need a calculator
wdym
$$log_9 3 = \frac{1}{2}$$

I've used double angle formula for both denominator and numerator and im at 1+2sinacosa/1+2cos^2a however I'm unsure what to do
Are you trying to prove the equality
yes
$\frac{1+2\sin\left(a\right)\cos\left(a\right)}{2\cos^{2}\left(a\right)}\to\frac{\sin^{2}\left(a\right)+2\sin\left(a\right)\cos\left(a\right)+\cos^{2}\left(a\right)}{2\cos^{2}\left(a\right)}$
Combustion
then i can just do perfect square
yep
thank you bro

I was thinking if it can be solved through geometry standpoint
As for the left side of the equation can be considered as a slope of a particular line
bro ngl that is way beyond what i knnonw
lmao
wait im confused what to do next
$\frac{\left(\sin\left(a\right)+\cos\left(a\right)\right)^{2}}{2\cos^{2}\left(a\right)}\to\frac{\left(\frac{\sin\left(a\right)+\cos\left(a\right)}{\cos\left(a\right)}\right)^{2}}{2}$
Combustion
ok just divide by cos squared and then 1 + tan a squared on 2
OH THANK YOU
💀 i would not have seen that
do enough problems and these will be really really easy

does this fall into case 2 or 3? do i take into account sin is raised to 1 by default or naw
case 2 is when there's only cos OR sin, not and
mhm but sin is raised to 1 which is an odd exponent no? so does it fall under case 2

I dont understand why if the bottom is even why theres 2 answers
because you have one associated with 3x+3=27, and one with 3x+3=-27
but why does it turn into + and -
like why does the bottom of fraction being even make it + and - answer
same with this one
well they say, why, += because 4 is even.
well, for example, if we have x^2=4
2 is a solution
2^2=4
but -2 is also a solution
(-2)^2=(-2)(-2)=4
so if in the problem theres an even power
itll always have 2 answers?
when solving for x
well, not necessarily
(x-2)^2=0 has only 1 solution, but in general, if you have to take an even root of both sides, you will have a plus minus
this one only has one solution because plus minus 0 is still 0
but if it wasnt 0 it would have 2 solutions?
like this has 2 solutions but didnt take square root of it
you did take an even root. 1/4
you can think of 3/4 as cubing(^3), then taking a 1/4 root
i see ok i think i get it just wish there was an easy way to tell if it had 2 answers or not

If i've got sucha function
and i need to give a set in which this function is continius and what type of discontiniutity it is
if it is
does that mean, that i just say that the denominator != 0
yes cuz u cant divide by 0
and say that function is continius in domain R \ {-2, 1}
aha
and count left-hand, right-hand limits, to state the type of DC?
for both points
and it is continius, since its a quotient of a polynomial and an id(x) + constant?
elementary functions?
you mean like the bottom part subbed by lim x-->3- and limx-->3+?
u do that when
x+2 if x<0
3x+4 if x >=0
did not count it
oh
ah yes
here we got just empty points?
in this domain
no
it could be hyperbolic
In desmos, i can see that for x = -2,
x is a cluster point, but its not in the domain
that means its a removable type of discontinuity?
-2 and 1 aint from domain
i just dont remember how to calc the type of disc
just not in the domain
not yet shown in my calculus class
in a few lectures, yes
but not yet
hence cant use it
anyone else?
Cause I assume thats the way im supposed to do it:
Calculate the domain, we get that R \ {-2, 1}.
Then get the limits f(x) when x->-2, and x->1
we do it for 2+, 2-, 1+, 1-
And I get that
lim x->2- f(x) = lim x->2+ f(x)```
That should mean that -2 is a cluster point of the domain but is not in the domain, so the DC is removable
and doing that for 1+, 1-, we get -inf and +inf
So its an infinite jump at point 1

I’m working on conic sections and I need to find the center, vertices and foci
I know how to do that by only when I have something that looks like this equation
Oh guess I should also specify that this is an ellipse
[
a = \f1{\f1a}
]
so you still have what's in your equation
So is a =81?
yeah
Ok so it’s just
But I thought you said a = 81
you misinterpreted what I wrote
I said a= 81 for the equation I wrote
if you want I'll change the variables
don't forget parentheses
Ok
Ok
also you exponentiated the 81 and 49 out of nowhere
you are meant to rewrite them as 9^2 and 7^2 to represent what you are trying to say here
This still means a is 81 so why isn’t a = 81 in my problem?
you are looking for a^2 in the denominator
you only have the numbers as integer coefficients
you can make the 81 be in the denominator to satisfy x^2/a^2 by saying 1/(1/81)
thus a^2 = 1/81
and a = 1/9
Oh ok
Gotcha
So with questions like these I basically have to find the square root of the number and replace a and b with the square root?

I have a question in topology which might be pretty trivial
How does collection of some subsets of X which obey the rules of topology help in giving a notion of closeness
For example, X = {a,b,c,d}
Suppose taking
Suppose I 'm constructing topology and suppose I want to add subsets {a,b} , {c,d},
I would easily be able to do it
t1 = {phi, X, {a,b}, {c,d}}
whereas when I want to construct a topology {a,b} and {b,c}, I am required to add additional sets from rules of topology for it to be a topology , ( My best guess would be the two sets I want to add can also describe closeness of two more subsets as well ? )
t2 = {phi, X, {a,b}, {b,c}, {a,b,c}, {b}}
I fail to see how t2 tells anything about closeness of any points , I fail to see how this notion of closeness which topology claims to solve : /
I've tried looking up what the topological space and open sets are useful on stackoverflow and reddit, they always use analogies and metaphors to describe topology and I don't see how these analogy translate to point set topology
I've never seen a concrete example , Maybe clarifying one would help
post this in another channel pls
im taking this class rn too but i wanna try this
lemme get to where u r
i got different equations

Could someone help with #14? I'm not exactly sure how to work this out.
I parameterized the sides in the xy & xz planes as lines, but I don't think that's the correct approach.
actually I just thought of something

Does this math add up? Currently, outside diameter the lid is 33.20 mm. Becuase of this, if the lid is not a snap fit for you, you can adjust the scale. Adjusting the .3% adujusts the outside diameter by about .1 mm (.0996 to be exact). This is all assuming my math is correct lol. With this in mind I would reccomend adjusting the scale of the lid by .3% at a time depending if it is to large or to small.

for finding the total distance, how do i approach this part of the question?
<@&286206848099549185>
Can you explain how the green and white boxes are read?
Or. alternatively, explain what youi want help with?
the green means i got them correct and the white are the ones im still working on
im curious on how to find the total distance
part of the question
s(t) is speed i believe
and the derivative of that is velocity (answered in question A)
yea i tried v(t) as well for this question, im starting to think its just an error on the applications part
s is often used for position ot distance
ah i see, thank you for your help
So any idea what the curve of position looks like?
I guess total distance is the positive distance plus the negative distance
But, you must work out where it stops at t=8
gotcha, thank you
thank you
Enjoy

@unkempt compass Has your question been resolved?
@unkempt compass Has your question been resolved?
Are you still working on this question? Happy to help
yeah
i still havent found a way to solve it, its too diffcult for me alone to do
What do you know about exponential or logarithmic equations? Like do you know how to solve them?
i suppose i know how to solve them
i know the exponential and logarithmic laws and how to manipulate them
for the most part
Thats great!
OK we want to start with part (a). Can you make a quadratic that has x=1 and x=2 as solutions
i know...the basic forms in the functions like y = a (function) (k(x-d)+c
(x-1)(x-2)=y
Good, let's take y=0, so that (x-1)(x-2)=0
ok, i understand that part
Now let's take the exponential of both sides.
do you know about e (natural exponential?)
or should we use a base that's not e?
i know of the ln function and that base e is some number
ok cool
and ln_e (e) = 1
so if we take e of both sides, we would get $e^{(x-1)(x-2)} = e^{0}$
alright, im still following
Do you know what is e^0 ?
=1
yep yep
now we just need to get the -12 in there
so let's multiply both side by -12
-12e^(x-1)(x-2) = -12
e is not considered a variable?
no it is a number somewhere between 2 and 3, so x is the only variable in this equation
but otherwise it does seem to be a solution although i was coming at the problem thinking we needed two graphs that intersect at x=1 and x=2
In this equation we actually need both the LHS and RHS to be equal to -12 when x=1 and x=2 (this is what we mean by a solution)
in green is the exponential function and in purple is the function y=-12
ahhhh
that makes a lot of sense
just throwing this out there but, would e^(x-1)(x-2)(x-12)=1 be another solution?
I think that should work too
In this case 1, 2, and 12 are solutions to the equation, but I think this is OK
one thing that got me confused was that...these graphs dont exactly look like exponential functions in the sense that they aren't shaped like a hockey stick
Very true. When you have a quadratic power (or in your last example a cubic power) things can look very different!
e^{ax+b} will always look like a hockey stick 🙂
the log version of this would be a bit more difficult because we cant have a log of (x-1) ?
im just plugging into a calculator right now
Yeah i had to be sneaky to use logs lol
and quickly just by extension to satisfy the last part of the question..we have infinite amount of solutions because we could just add extra factors to the exponential equation? that is e^(x-1)(x-2)(x-12)(x-14)(x-15)=1 ect ect ect
was there a log solution? im curious about that part
yes there are infinite solutions to this question
for the log part I did something weird like this $-12\log_{2}(2^{(x-1)(x-2)}) = 0$
So the log_{2} and power of 2 "cancel" and youre left with -12(x-1)(x-2)
this whole question is just about trying to find ways to sneak in an exponent or logarithm and not actually have graphs that look like logs or exponential graphs 😵💫
my interpretation of it was to find log(x)=log(x) and have points of contact like in this image
and that seemed very difficult to solve for
im not sure if seeing that changes your view on how this problem should be solved?
I don't disagree with you, I think it just makes the overall question very hard!

Yo
Bot is down pretty sure
1 sec
Okay
then obviously we can focus on the right now
Okay
do you know how we can simplify it
Cancel out the x?
no dawg think about exponent rules
we combine like terms?
IDK what that means
how did u get that
i think she might provide that
you should make it second nature
what does that mean
it should be really easy
to the extent you dont need her to provide it
its just intuitive
so do the rest of the worksheet
use the product rule
yeah
but remember the base has to be the same for most of these to work
where did the 7 come from
-1 + -4/3 = -7/3
yeah
how do i add that
you wanna make the denominators equal
so 1+2=3
no
so
cross multiply?
the key is to realise 2 = 2/1
yeah
now youve done everything you can right now
so look back to the exponent rules
ok
and see if theres something else you can apply
how
There the same
so do they stay the same? i know the bottom number stays the same
o
i used the negative exponent rule
the red is her answer
ok
do you see why her answer works?
ok

Do you find a pattern?
I don't 
Let's say, the big one is the sum of the small ones.
Try finding a pattern based on that.
In other words, see the arrows as vectors.

could someone help me understand this proof?https://www.quora.com/Can-you-use-induction-to-prove-that-the-sum-of-any-two-consecutive-Fibonacci-numbers-is-always-another-Fibonacci-number#:~:text=Yes%2C we can use mathematical,F(n%2B2).
Answer: Yes, we can use mathematical induction to prove that the sum of any two consecutive Fibonacci numbers is always another Fibonacci number.
First, we define the Fibonacci sequence as follows:
F(0) = 0 F(1) = 1 F(n) = F(n-1) + F(n-2), for n ≥ 2.
We want to prove that for all n ≥ 0, F(n) +...
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
wait wtf
F(k+1) + F(k+2) = F(k+3) follows from the definition of Fibonacci numbers; you don't even need an inductive step at all, and it's unclear why the author is (mis)using it
right?
honestly I suspect this was ai generated and not reviewed
i also suspecct that
i hate the modern Internet
but it has 230 positive ratings
just botting?
but yeah i have a final in an hour and fibonacci and induction are the concepts
so i thought id check out inductive proofs of various properties of fibs
no it has 230 views
this is sickeningly gpt
