@waxen turtle Has your question been resolved?
So the main thing that sets these 3 options apart in the first question is this:
Experiments compare and contrast a control group with a study group. Observational studies use data gained strictly from observing the subjects, as opposed to asking them any questions. Whereas a sample study, if you look up online is just about, verbatim, a survey which may be conducted as a questionnaire of sorts, in person or over the phone.
For the second question A will never be the right answer. We need a statement that's verifiable. In theory they don't tell us how many people actually agreed, if only like 3 people agreed then the answer will probably be D, but if we assume a reasonable portion of the population agreed then it should represent a decent sample statistic, which would make the answer C.

Hello
If I start here
What tells me I can slice the integrals into 3 parts like this?
Is that just a property of integrals? I’m separating the integrand into 2 terms that have countably many parts so idk if that makes things back

this solution does not put i next to 2?
Since it's a cube root, signs will survive. If it were an even root like the square root, that might be a concern.
Not always.
Consider that $\sqrt[3]{-54x^3} = \sqrt[3]{{\color{cyan}-27}(2){\color{green}x^3}}$. The ${\color{green}x^3}$ can come come out as ${\color{green}x}$ without trouble - cube roots and cubes reduce, right? Well, what about ${\color{cyan}-27}#?

(You may edit your message to recompile.)
$27 = 3(3)(3) = 3^3$, so how could we get $-27$?
Shenzao
Exactly, $-3(-3)(-3)=(-3)^3 = {\color{cyan}-27}$.
Shenzao
So we can take out the -3.
If we take out the x and take out the -3, we still have the 2 inside, so we end up with $-3x\sqrt[3]{2}$.
Does that make sense?
yes
Shenzao
thank you

yo
what does it mean for something to be proportional
it means its in multiple of that thing
say you have a square with dimensions of 1
a square with dimensions of 2 would be in proportion because its 2 times its area
wouldn't it be 4 times its area
yes
a segmented line can be
yes but you're dealing with lines that are infinitely as large
i mean theoreticially by the definition i provided then it would be proportional
the length of the x axis is infinity
the length of the line is infinity
anything times infinity is still infinity
it is a segmented line
that means it starts at a point and ends at another point?
because each segment has the same slope
what is a segment
so its just a streched/compressed version of each line
but this line has the same slope everywhere
so why is this not considered proportional

I would just need some quick reassurance on how to do an induction proof on a tree or if I am wrong some correction.
So I wanna proof something for a tree regarding its relation to a certain matrix.
My induction goes over the number of vertices in the Tree.
Now my confusion is , is it correct that in the step I'd have to do something like
"let T be a tree on n vertices. T has a leaf l . Lets look at T' = T-l. Ok hypothesis tells us statement is true and then adding l back causes x to happen with the matrix. And then were done"
So we would add l back right were we deleted it or does it necessarily have to be an arbitrary vertex in T' that we add l to?
Someone told me we cant tell where we add l back. But in my mind that seems to be not true since we already made no assumption about T other then T has n vertices.
because if we couldnt say we add l back right to the place we deleted it from, then I would say - why not immeaditely start with T' and construct a tree T := T'+ v. But thats not how I was taught induction on trees works

Let $R$ be the region bounded by the curves of $f(x)=\ln(x^2+1)$ and $g(x)=\cos x$.
Jash
The base of a solid is in the region R. Each cross section of the solid perpendicular to the x-axis is a rectangle with a base on the region and a height of 2x. Write an expression involving one or more integrals that gives the volume of the solid.
(calculater question btw)
is it just $\int_A^B (\cos x-\ln(x^2+1))2xdx$
Jash
where A and B are the x coordinates of the intersections

how should I paramaterize this region in terms of polar coordinates
my goal is integrating it over the function xy which is = (r^2sinthetacostheta)
it would be easy if it was bounded by the x axis
or should I use rectangular coordinates
can do either
is it not just r = 6, theta from 0 to pi/2
@jagged timber Has your question been resolved?
that would be a circle of radius 6 in quadrant 1
much larger
this appears to be the same thing you have?
oh yours isnt a circle
wow im baited by the arc
Yeah the radius is 3
no his is an ellipse
What no ?
Move the graph at the axis intersection, maybe it will help
Since translations don't shift angles and length
Why 3D ??
Alright so "integrating over xy" means "integrating over x and y" ?
Okay
to be clear, you could do polar here if you really wanted though
So f(x,y)=xy is your function you integrate, and the region R is the disk of radius 3 centered at (0;3) in the 0xy plane, right ?
what bounds
for polar
oh
I could
do a polar for r = 6
then subtract
maybe
no I cannot
nvm
The circle would have a wider circonference
yeah
Let's just maybe start with the inequality related to this region ?
And then implement the parameter in the equation
I guess your values in y are shifted by 3
So instead of having (x,y)=(3cos(t),3sin(t))
You would have (x,y)=(3cos(t),3(sin(t)+1))
If I'm not mistaken
parametric equation
Yeah but what parameters, aren't they the radius 0<r<3 and the angle 0<t<pi/2 ?

When entering this into my calculator I get -0.07, but that doesn't sound right
Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
,w sind(tand(acosd(-0.23)))
It's -0.07
The real question is what’s the point of this question if you have a calculator
I also got -0.07 on my calculator
how come it doesn’t sound right lol
Very good question
I entered it in chatgpt and it gave me like 200 degrees
Don’t use ChatGPT for math
It’s a writing tool
And it’s very good at confidently lying to you
Please do not trust ChatGPT or similar AI tools for mathematical tasks, as they often generate output which "sounds correct" but has numerous factual or logical errors. Use of these AI tools to answer other people's help questions is strictly against server rules (see #rules).
There was a case where a lawyer used ChatGPT in a real court case and chatGPT MADE UP case law that he trusted without looking into and got huge fines
and lying to itself lol
Its not an all purpose AI it’s an engine that is good at predicting the next word that will make its speech sound human
Frankly I don’t get why people so often use it as a reference it truly doesn’t seem better at that than google
For writing it seems great
But for research it’s a bad idea

ok so i put this into the form of b^2 - 4ac < 0
cuz it has no solution
then i get
p^2 > 4/9
!show
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
mb it was 4/9
ah
so
but how can u show it in the set of possible values?
as p itself
?
do u draw a graph?
you can
so -2/3<p<2/3?
another way to do it is to do
p^2 - 4/9 > 0 and factor
not quite, the inequality symbols are the wrong way around
wait can u explain that?
how do i acc do the inequality symbols
how do i know which way ?
how did you get the inequality in the first place so i can explain that first
this one
where did p<0 come from?
ok im not sure what youre saying so let me just explain the algebraic version first
you got to the point p^2 > 4/9, which is correct
then we get
p^2 - 4/9 > 0
hwo can we factor this?
oh (p - 2/3)(p + 2/3)
is that the only way to find the inequality sign?
we will do the graph version in a sec
ok i understand this bit
u just plot it on the graph and since the graph is >0
we know that it will be seperated
slow donw
ok yeah that works
but if you were to do it fully algebraically, you can think about if each bracket is positive or negative
like p in the bracket?
lemme use an example: if you have p = 1, you have
(1 - 2/3)(1 + 2/3)
positive*positive=positive
so we know p=1 works
the only time a sign will change in one of the brackets is when p is on another side of a root
are you familiar with the idea of a sign chart?
looks like this
YHH I DO
youre welcome
if you want the graphical version, you have to draw out p^2
got it!

This is the encryption algorithm for RSA, can you find P given that you know e, n, and C?
well the entire point of RSA is that you can't decode the message without the decryption key
"cant"
u cant solve this algebraically? P is the original text and C is the ciphertext
... if you could, then the RSA encryption wouldn't work
the (unproved) idea is that there is not way to solve this besides brute force (which the number are too large to be feasable)
I don't want to explain the number theory, but the RSA algorithm is very well studied and well known, so you can find resources easily
The only values that could help you compute d (and thus decrypt the message) would be the original prime factors you chose such that p*q = n. This is why the problem is hard in general (and why the algorithm works for encryption), because such a decomposition is unfeasible for large primes.
is there a reason why? i wont ask you for an explaination if its too long but could you point me to any resources
im mainly wondering why u cant just work backwards from the original encryption algorithm which i uploaded
the easiest answer is "why don't you try?"
perhaps itll be easier to convince yourself of it
Because you throwaway the primes once you're done.
There is no working backwards possible unless you have them.
probably*
Yeah probably and for now.
its unproven that breaking the RSA algorithm requires factoring
is there like a name for the specific problem? chatgpt said its similar to the discrete logarithm problem but idk
yeah the problem is "its really hard to factor large numbers"
maybe called the RSA Problem
discrete log problem leads to a different cryptosystem
ElGamal is the one I know
DH key exchange as well!
Thanks for pointing that out btw, I didn't know that. Turns out the equivalent bit is just about finding the private key, which in itself may be harder than finding the plaintext to begin with.
Meant to reply to the earlier message about the prime factorization problem oh well
im sorry im really new to RSA and modular arithmetic but given these randomly assigned numbers cant u find a way to solve for P:
these are weak numbers, so I suppose you could do it for these
wait whats the second line doing?
there are no solutions to the first line, and 4 solutions to the next one
no solutions
the n is very easy to factor, (and the encryption exponent is low) so this one is solvable
could u please explain how u would usually solve problems like these, maybe it well help me understand how the difficulty will increase as the numbers get higher

Per ChatGPT: The problem doesn't make sense because the remainder (100) is larger than the modulus (80), which contradicts the definition of modular arithmetic where the remainder must be smaller than the modulus. Additionally, in the context of RSA, the modulus is typically the product of two large primes, not a small number like 80.

I have $Y = aX + bZ$, where $Y$, $X$ and $Z$ are random variables and $a$ and $b$ are constants.
I know what $a$ and $b$ are, and I know each random variable's variance.
I'm trying to find the covariance between $Y$ and $X$, assuming that $X$ and $Z$ are uncorrelated.
Is it as simple as simply knowing that if $Y = \beta X$ and $\beta = \frac{Cov(Y,X)}{Var(X)}$, then in my formula, $a = \frac{Cov(Y,X)}{Var(X)}$ ?
Because if I know what $Var(X)$ is, then, I can figure out that $Cov(Y,X) = a Var(X)$?

x=a[cos t+log tan t/2] , y=asint
You’re supposed to wait 15mins before pinging helpers 
idk lol
Anyways, do you know the way to find it for parametric equations?
yee
Yep, what would you do to find it? 
like u shud denote a varible as t
it depnds if its curve,parabola or etc...
eg if slope of tangent is 1/t
the paramatric eqn is = x=at2;y=2at
u there?
Erm, well, there is a variable t in there
As in can you find dy/dx in terms of t? (Hint: chain rule ⛓️)
i got tan t as the answer
i got the answer but am not sure its correct
coz i dont belive in me lol

Still need help? @alpine sable
Show your work
like am using laptop
my phone is on charge
its simple nah i derived wrt t
and i converted tan as sin/cos
sec2 as 1/cos2

For this problem I need to find the first 5 terms of the geometric sequence
I know the first one but how do I find the ratio so I can get to a_5?
$r=\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n-1}}$
Joanna Angel
Oh ok
So a_2 would be a_2/7?
a_2 = 0.2 * a_1

How do I solve this?
I find the two derivatives, but I think I am supposed to multiply one by -1 and add the two derivatives?
But I always get the wrong answer somehow
$\text{You have to solve the system of equations:}\\f_{x}\left( x,y \right)=0\f_{y}\left( x,y \right)=0$
Joanna Angel
Wait.
Here is the example problem.
How do they get 6y-8y+30? I don't understand
they used subtraction: the first minus the second equation, because it suited them in this case, but it is not a rule
they have noticed that
6x = 6x disappears
and they get only y
but in other similar situaiotn mayeb you will need to use diffeertn oepraiton
do you udnerstand ?
oh okay I understand
🙂
But why 6y-8y and not 6y+8y?
becasue they substracted all second equations means
-(6x + 8y) = -6x - 8y
btw:
do you know how to solve systems of equations?
your case is a very simple here, since there are two linear equations, you can solve them as you were doing ti at school
but often, if it comes to extremeum of function fo two variables
you can recieve systte with algebraic euqations
more complicated
all depends on partia derivatives
Okay so my two derrivatives are
10x+6y+32
6x+10y
so you must write system:
10x + 6y +32 = 0
and
6x + 10y = 0
do it
and next
you should observe = njotice
that you can divide first equaiton by 2 and also secodn eq by two
right so I would get x=-5, and y=3
Ok I was just confused on what the example was saying where they combined the derrivatives,
Thank you for the help!

Here they say find the real roots but what does it means?
do i just factor like a usual quadratic equation?
like 129 would be (x-3)*(x+4)
well factoring is a good idea, but the actual answer they want is the roots
so for 129 the answer is x = 3 or x = -4
because those are the values that you can put in that make the equation true
3^2 + 3 - 12 is 0, 4^2 + 4 - 12 is 0
oh so like i factor like i did and then find the values of x that will lead to it being 0?
Yeah it basically means that.
The term real may be confusing in this context, because all roots in the problems will be real (I think). If they're not real, you will not be able to find them through factoring.
a "root" is basically just a value that makes something zero
in this case it's the value of x that makes x^2 + x - 12 (or whatever) zero
it doesn't really have much to do with "square root"

am i missing something with exponents
cuz i thought for the first one you can multiply 1 by 2
and get e^2
but e^1^2 is not equal to e^2
but when I do e^2^2
and multiply 2*2 to get 4
e^4 does equal e^2^2
why is that?
1^2=1
1^2 is not equal to 2
oh
it’s just 1*1
i thought you would multiply the exponents
2^2=4
x^2=x*x
(e^1)^2 = e^2
because then you have 1*2 according to laws of indices

since csc(x) = 1/sin(x)

that?
im doing this with the translator
that's it, but instead of getting an equivalence, you have to get the least common multiple

is 0 odd or even
so, youve said that
$$T_1 +T_1 rT_1 r^2+...+T_1 r^{k-1}+T_1 r^k = \frac{T_1 (1-r^k)}{1-r}+T_1 r^k$$
$$\frac{T_1 (1-r^k)}{1-r}+\frac{(T_1 r^k)(1-r)}{1-r}$$
AℤØ
by your inductive hypothesis
hm?
i dont think its right
i asked ai to solve it and they said it was wrong
dont use ai, theyre usually very off
and also i dont know how to solve it at that point even if its right
from here just add them really
the numerator becomes:
$$T_1 (1-r^k)+T1(r^k-r^{k+1})$$
AℤØ
well, youve proven that on the assumption its true for n=k, then its true for n=k+1
so youre done really
i times everything by (1-r) ?
just need to write a statement
nono
youre finished the moment you get this
just have to say its proven by induction
yeah thats just the numerator
the denominator 1-r is still under all this
$$\frac{T_1 (1-r^k)+T1(r^k-r^{k+1})}{1-r}$$
AℤØ
once you simplified it to the required format you were done
you showed true for n=1
then assumed true for n=k
for n=k+1 you wanted to show you can get it into the form on the rhs of the equation at top
which you did by having:
$$\frac{T_1(1-r^{k+1})}{1-r}$$
AℤØ
that was the right hand side
This second line you wrote is what you were showing
you were just showing the left could be written as the right under your assumption
well you couldnt write it directly like you did
this top line would be what youd write initially
then the second
then our simplifying into the required form
how what?
my lhs still looks nothing like the rhs
oh
youre showing the left can be written as the right
since thats what it wants you to prove
yep
how do i do that though
by induction, you did the base case 1,
you then assumed it was true for n=k (top line)
then we did this
which was n=k+1, on the previous assumption
thats the whole process
which second line are you referring to
might be easier if i write this out for you more clearly
gimme a few minutes

How do I set this line integral up?
I did this and got -32 but it's supposed to be +32
your parametrization for the curve seems to be incorrect
in any case if you need to find a path-independent line integral it's often simpler to set up a potential function
@hexed sonnet Has your question been resolved?
hmm im not sure why it's incorrect
I did x = 2-3t
y=-2-2t
and then dx/dt = -3 and dy/dt=-2
if you plug in your start and end-points for t, then you should get your start and end points
then i plugged that into the given equation
try doing that and see what points you end up with

Vectors are like lines, or rope. Doing A + B = 56 tells you what value b is restricted in.
I'm not certain, but you need to define a positive direction, where as a velocity vector has the opposite direction, giving it the negative sign.

I can't seem to get this question right, it simply just hurts my brain to think about but I previously got 31.121 minutes as the answer, which was incorrect.
If I remember I had previously gotten a ratio of 1/2
That checks out with your previous answer, yeah. How did you get 1/2?
*approximately
I'm thinking that the rockets (red triangles) are two separate vectors. In the rocket going to B, we can see that if we add the vectors together the combined magnitude should be 2M. I'm not sure why I thought the combination of the two rockets towards A would be M/2 though.
Do you see how you get a right triangle if you add up the two rockets as vectors when going to A?
Yes
So what would the total magnitude be? (in terms of M)
This would be a simplified diagram right?
2/sqrt(2)?
*sorry, thought you meant sqrt(2)M
yes
actually this is sqrt(2)
because 2 = sqrt(2) * sqrt(2)
Wait but isn't the outbound B rocket magnitude 2M?
And if inbound A rocket magnitude is sqrt(2)m, would the ratio be 2/sqrt(2)
Oh yeah I see
Now try calculating the time again, I think the last part of your pevious method was correct, but the 1/2 wasn't
I'm getting 22 but that shouldn't be right
I assume you are using this equation? $$\frac{1}{2}a_{1}t_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2}a_{2}t_{2}^{2}$$
Jelle
My teacher provided similarily 1/2at^2
Yeah, that's the distance and it holds for both spaceships so you can equate them
distance from A to B is the distance from B to A
Yes
and then I would solve for t_2 ^ 2
yup
So in this case would t_2 be 26.163 (rounded third dec up)
that's what I got as well

Not really sure where to go here, me and my gf both worked on this and we previously chose option 3 as the answer but apparently that was entirely incorrect.
Was using this image as a reference point to maybe figure out what each component would stand for
You could just use dimensional analysis
Or basically check the units
Do you know wha dimensional analysis is
Nope, this is a physics prep course at my university
Alg based is my weakest spot compared to calc based
Oh well this is definitely physics
Okay one way to think of it is
Since you're getting acceleration in the LHS
You should also get acceleration on the RHS
You do this by checking the units on each side
The units of acceleration are m/s^2
So look on the right hand side and see what units do the terms give.
Also, remember that only quantities (terms) with same units can be added

thank you for the guide
Anyways, what I try to think is that v=(x-x_0)/t which means that a=(v-v_0)/t but that isn't really shown

id recommend looking it up
id suspect khan academy would have it

(a*b)-(a^2-b^2)=900
a,b are greater than or equal to 1000
and less than 10000
means they are 4 digit numbers
find a,b...
can someone tell me what do I do to solve it..
i simplified it but still..
yeah
are you sure that's the whole question?
yeah.. with an example
ab - (a^2 - b^2) right?
yea
which becomes
ab - a^2 + b^2
ooh
i forgot about this
so
-a^2 + ab + b^2 = 900
still how to solve :/
because its confusing when asking for solution with 4 digits
ngl, idk, wait for someone else
ok..
are you taking a number theory class?
I remember its name, But forgot it. Anyways, this is my cousin question.. I dont think he know it
I tried my best but yeah I couldnt..
First college year cant solve this 💀
i mean see if its just a high school question, then one can just use a calculator or plot a graph or smn
haha its not particularly easy to establish a universal method to solve equations of the form Ax^2+Bxy+Cy^2 = D
90% its
But the question is asking for x, y then write it in [b+(10000*a)] form
:/ true
Exactly, finding all real (a, b) is one thing, finding all integer (a, b) is another thing
How :/
I mean there is no calc with find x, y with a range [1000,10000)
Oh
Im not really sure
Probably all integers
Yep.. That's possible to be
Let me write the full q
The total value of a pair of numbers (a, b) is said to be the product of the two numbers from the difference of their squares. For example, the total value of the pair (4,7) is 5, because
(4x7)-(4²-7²)=5
Find any pair of numbers with a total value of 900, so that the number of digits of each number is 4, and if you find the pair, write the answer in the form
B+(10000 x a)
This is the question as sent to me
There is a possibility that (a) is a decimal

No one..
Anyone
HELP PLEASE
Ok so if I understood this correctly they want integers
EQUENOS
If we want y to be an integer, x must be an even integer and 900 + 5k^2 should be a full square
This feels like a project Euler question, so that’s how I solved it. I wrote a python script to check every pair’s total value. It took 22 seconds to find an integer solution between [1000,9999] for both a and b.
But this is the more theoretical solution
By 5k you mean 5000
I mean 5 times an integer number k
Oh
Substitute x = 2k here
My brain stopped working
