dense matrix
#

is all i need to do is just to simplify?

tacit arch
#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
lofty creek
#

its simply simplifying

dense matrix
#

:D okay ill try to do and say the answer

#

give me a second

#

1,28571429 * 10^14?

#

the simple numbers added up to being 0,28571429 * 10^4

#

but to turn it to a 1,28571429 I *10 both sides

#

is that right?

#

or should i do the complete opposite with *10 the first number and then -10 the factor on the second number

lofty creek
#

that doesnt look quite right

dense matrix
#

as in 1,28571429 * 10^-6

#

oh nvm figured it out, was doing it wrong

#

sey

winter ivy
#

I know I asked this yesterday and the day before, but I am still unsure of how to contiinue from this point

winter ivy
#

is there only one correct solution? Because for example we can say that -1/n pi cos(npi)= (-1)^(2n+1) right?

#

because that would satisfy the conditions of even and unevenness

little prawn
#

hm

#

n starts at 1 right for fourier series

vale crag
#

why did your 1/n even disappear

little prawn
#

when looking at it it is just (-1)^n+1

#

also

winter ivy
#

it didnt

vale crag
#

yes it did

#

where is 1/n here

#

it's the pi's that cancel

#

not n

winter ivy
#

oh there you mean

winter ivy
#

so the n dissappears

vale crag
#

what

winter ivy
#

I plugged in the n=0, n=1, n=2 for the top, middle, and bottom row respectively

#

because I have no clue what Im doing

vale crag
#

ok fine

winter ivy
#

just wanted to find an expression for b_n in terms of even and uneven values of n

little prawn
#

you dont need to know that tho

#

cos(pi(n))

#

is (-1)^n

#

so you just have (((-1)^n+1)/n

#

right

winter ivy
#

right

little prawn
#

that is your bn

winter ivy
#

is that the only correct solution

#

what about ((-1)^(n-1))/n

vale crag
#

it also works

little prawn
#

sure

#

same thing

tacit arch
#

(-1)^2 = 1

vale crag
#

they're essentially the same though

winter ivy
#

I hate guessworking

#

thanks anyways

little prawn
#

i dont see where you have to guess

#

you could just keep it as -(-1)^n if you want

winter ivy
little prawn
#

0

#

sin(pi) is zero

winter ivy
#

I mean

#

forget that question

#

what would be cos(npi/2)

little prawn
#

tehn you have to do two sums

winter ivy
#

thats 0

little prawn
#

i think

#

two cases

winter ivy
#

right? cuz cos(pi/2)=0

little prawn
#

but n goes up by integers

#

so you have -1 and 1 for every other number in the sum

winter ivy
#

for what integer of n, is cos(npi/2) not equal to 0

#

oh I guess 2

#

all even ones

little prawn
#

2 and 4

#

yeah but its the same for 2, 6, 10

#

and 4, 8, 12

#

respectively ykyk

winter ivy
#

okay anyways ill keep practicing

#

thx

gentle comet
#

can someone help me with this?

lone heartBOT
gentle comet
#

i tried everything and its always missing something

#

<@&286206848099549185>

lone heartBOT
#

@gentle comet Has your question been resolved?

junior vigil
lone heartBOT
gentle comet
#

and the question is clear

junior vigil
#

do you know what A \ B means? How to write it in terms of intersection?

gentle comet
#

yea i think its A - A intersection B

junior vigil
#

that's still not completely in terms of intersection

#

one way you can think about this is 'everything in A that's not in B'

#

how would you write this in terms of intersection?

gentle comet
junior vigil
#

#

is intersection

#

'and'

#

well, we can use that as well

gentle comet
junior vigil
#

what is the formula for P(A U B)?

#

what happens if we add the formulas for P(A \ B) + P( B \ A)?

#

:)

gentle comet
#

we get P(A U B) but without the intersection?

junior vigil
#

what's the formula for P(A U B)

#

write it out like you did the others

#

and compare it to formula for P( A \ B) + P ( B \ A)

gentle comet
#

P(A U B) = P( A ) + P( B ) - P( A ∩ B )

junior vigil
#

yes

#

now the formula for P(A \ B) + P (B \ A)

gentle comet
#

idk

junior vigil
#

just add the formulas you got for P(A \ B) and P(B\A) together

#

what do you get?

#

@gentle comet

gentle comet
#

please idk what are you saying

junior vigil
#

P( A \ B ) = P( A ) - P( A ∩ B )

#

P( B \ A ) = P( B ) - P( A ∩ B )

#

P( A \ B ) + P( B \ A ) =

#

add the equations

gentle comet
#

P( B ) - P( A ∩ B ) + P( A ) - P( A ∩ B )?

junior vigil
#

yes...

#

and you can rearrange this...

#

to...

#

P( A )+P(B) - P( A ∩ B ) - P( A ∩ B )

#

do you see what you can do?

#

:)

gentle comet
#

sry but i dont

junior vigil
#

what was P(A U B)?

gentle comet
#

ooh

#

wait sry

junior vigil
#

you know P(A U B), you know P(B/A) and P(A/B)

#

so you can find P(A n B)

#

which allows you to find P(B)

gentle comet
#

P( A \ B ) + P( B \ A ) = P(A U B) - P( A ∩ B ) - P( A ∩ B )
.15 + .25 = .65 - P( A ∩ B ) - P( A ∩ B )
-0.25 = - P( A ∩ B ) - P( A ∩ B )
.125 = P( A ∩ B )

#

right?

junior vigil
#

you have an extra P( A ∩ B )

#

in the beginning

#

@gentle comet

gentle comet
junior vigil
#

no i mean you should just have P(AUB)-P(A ∩ B)

#

not P(A U B) - P( A ∩ B ) - P( A ∩ B )

#

P(A U B)=P( A )+P(B) - P( A ∩ B )

gentle comet
#

oh

gentle comet
#

by mistake?

junior vigil
#

i wrote the P(A U B) in bold

#

do you see?

#

@gentle comet

#

I was just writing down the equation you had for P(A \ B) + P(B\A), rearranged it

gentle comet
#

ok so P(A\B) + P(B\A) = P(A U B) - P( A ∩ B )?

junior vigil
#

yes :)

#

and this allows you to solve for P( A ∩ B ), exactly as you did before, without the dividing by 2

gentle comet
#

ok thank you i never thought of that

mighty cliff
#

The numbers 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 are all possible
five-digit numbers without repeating digits. How many
among these even numbers?

mighty cliff
#

need help with solution and explanation

#

Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.

mighty cliff
fallen verge
#

The question does not make sense

mighty cliff
#

Why

#

Of the numbers 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, all five -digit numbers were compiled without repetitions

#

How many paired among them

lofty creek
#

what does it mean to be an even number

mighty cliff
#

If the number ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, then this number is even.

lofty creek
#

so, how can this 5 digit number be even?

#

with only 5,6,7,8,9

mighty cliff
#

oh, I think I understand, if numbers can only end in 0, 2, etc. then there are only two numbers here: 6 and 8

#

then it turns out 6*8=48

lofty creek
#

how many 5 digit numbers can we make with these numbers

#

and how many of them end with 6 or 8

#

since ending wiht a 6 or 8 means its even

lofty creek
mighty cliff
lofty creek
#

its not 48

#

nevermind

#

it is 48

#

but not because its 6*8

#

its because its 2*4*3*2*1

mighty cliff
lofty creek
mighty cliff
lofty creek
#

for the first digit you have 5 possibliites, 2nd digit 4possibilities, etc right?

#

so now

#

to ge tan even number

#

the last digit has 2 possibilities

#

6 or 8

#

and the other digits are just the same

#

so the 1st digit has 4 possibilities, 2nd has 3, etc

#

make sense?

mighty cliff
#

Ahhh I understood

hi i need help i'm lost

#

$\cos^2(\theta) - 1$ is $-\sin^2(\theta)$, not $-\sin(\theta)$, but otherwise not bad

ocean sealBOT
#

@pseudo ice

leaden flint
pseudo ice
#

Well almost as you did - but you also forgot some signs too

#

You should have then found that $-2\sin^3(\theta) + 2 = 0$, which you could then rearrange to $\sin^3(\theta) = 1$, but then you can just cube root both sides of course

grizzled ermine
#

how do i solve..?

lone heartBOT
grizzled ermine
#

teacher didnt explain it well so now im stuck

open urchin
#

factor 10^(z+3) from the left side

grizzled ermine
open urchin
#

no

#

factor 10^(z+4)+10^(z+3) into 10^(z+3)*something

#

figure out what that something is

grizzled ermine
#

i dont get how you would use factoring here

vapid shuttle
#

x^(a+b) = x^(a)x^(b)

#

Because that’s how exponents work

#

Each term on the left then, using that simplification, you can show contain a factor of 10^(z+3)

#

Write z+4=z+3+1

grizzled ermine
#

actually i got it figured out

f(x)=|-3x+1|

lone heartBOT
valid ibex
#

im confused on how to select your points

elfin fiber
#

what are you trying to do or solve?

valid ibex
#

graph it

#

put it on a table then graph it

stark crater
elfin fiber
#

ok, so when is |-3x+1| different from -3x+1?

#

there's a million ways to do this but i'd start by graphing -3x + 1, then see what needs to change because of the absolute value.

valid ibex
#

im not sure what im doing wrong

stark crater
valid ibex
stark crater
#

Howd u get that

valid ibex
#

your supposed to go left 1 then down 2??

stark crater
#

You need to use ideas of transformations

stark crater
valid ibex
#

i believe so

stark crater
valid ibex
stark crater
#

I see

valid ibex
#

ive watched a few videos but im still a bit confused

stark crater
#

abs function is of form f(x)=a|b(x-c)|+d where a is vertical stretch, b horizontal stretch, c is horizontal translation and d is vertical translation

#

From your equation you can see a=1 and d=0 so you need to find what b and c are

valid ibex
#

well, I didnt learn that yet

#

I think I get it now

alpine sable
#

Can we say that an asymptote is an envelope to a family of curves?

alpine sable
#

The definition of envelope is:
A curve L where:

  1. It touches a curve from the family at every point
  2. Different curves from the family touch L at different points
#

If we consider the family of curves y - Cx^{-2} = 0, then x=0 and y=0 fail to be envelopes to this family, right?

#

(C is some arbitrary constant that generates the family)

Idk what to do now

ocean sealBOT
cinder sentinel
#

also move that y^-4 to the numerator

full kettle
#

I think you need to start by multiplying all the exponents by -1/4 before doing anything else

unborn geyser
unborn geyser
ocean sealBOT
cinder sentinel
#

so $\left(\frac{16y^\frac{4}{3}y^4}{x^8}\right)^{\frac{1}{4}$

#

you can multiply them since its the same base

astral oxide
#

sry if this is kinda a dumb question, but if i have something like $z=\frac{a^2b^2c}{c^2+a^2b^2}$ where theyre all measured values, how would i go about finding the uncertainty in z? or how should i find the uncertainty of a measured value when addition and multiplication are combined

ocean sealBOT
elfin fiber
#

so you have the uncertainty of a, b, c

astral oxide
#

yes i have the uncertanities for a, b and c

elfin fiber
#

do you know the standard error propagation formulas?

astral oxide
#

like if its addition, add the uncertainties, if its multiplication add the relative uncertainties, if theres a power its the power times the relative uncertainty

#

i dont know how id combine it when you have addition within division/multiplication 😔

elfin fiber
#

that's not my understanding, even with simple addition, you'll need a square root of the sum of squares

astral oxide
#

ohh

#

i was only given these 3:

elfin fiber
#

oh, this shouldn't be as difficult as I expected then

#

for example, can you find the uncertainty of a^2*b^2 with this information?

astral oxide
#

yeah 2(Δa/a)+2(Δb/b)

#

ohhh i see i find the uncertainties in the numerator and denominator?

elfin fiber
#

yes, find each component (numerator, denominator first term, denominator second term)

#

then, use the addition formula on the denominator first and second term

#

then, use the quotient formula for the numerator and denominator

astral oxide
#

ohhh that makes sense

#

tysm!!

elfin fiber

let me know if it goes smoothly, this is an interesting problem

does the probability formula P(A)=n(A)/n(S) only works under the circumstance that all of those events have the same probability to happen.

tacit arch
cinder sundial
#

P(A)= the probability for events inside set A to happen

#

n(A) is the number of events within set A

#

and n(S) is the sample space

tacit arch
#

Yea it only holds with equal probabilities in general

#

You can try to come up with a simple counterexample with small sample space and different probabilities

cinder sundial
#

Yet, it does not means that the answer is wrong

#

it just differs

#

<@&286206848099549185>

elfin fiber
#

Set this problem up with the lottery.

#

with the events Win $0, Win $100, and Win $1,000,000

tacit arch
#

What is your question still

cinder sundial
#

why it only holds with equal probabilities

elfin fiber
cinder sundial
#

it depends on the arrangement of the lottery

elfin fiber
#

but what would your formula imply the answer is?

cinder sundial
#

Im not familiar with the mechanism of lottery tho

#

and there a plenty of them with diffrent rules

elfin fiber
#

But your formula implies that you don't need to know anything about it, you just take 1 / 3

#

do you see an issue with that?

cinder sundial
elfin fiber
#

not necessarily, we could create a lottery where you have a 1/3 chance of winning, but the point is that you can't directly infer that from just the sample/event space

#

here's what you could do: come up with two sample spaces with the same elements, but that have different P(A)'s.

@cinder sundial Has your question been resolved?

@cinder sundial Has your question been resolved?

vale wigeon
#

what's the question/problem/doubt/issue here

lone heartBOT
#

@cinder sundial Has your question been resolved?

cinder sundial
#

P(A)= the probability for events inside set A to happen

#

n(A) is the number of events within set A

#

and n(S) is the sample space

vale wigeon
#

A is itself an event.

#

an event is (with some asterisks) a subset of S, the sample space.

#

also "sample space" refers to the set of all outcomes rather than only their count.

cinder sundial
#

I see

vale wigeon
#

anyway

#

if points in S don't have equal probabilities, then P(A) cannot depend only on n(A).

#

i can give an example if you want

cinder sundial
#

For sure

vale wigeon
#

ok

#

so let's say you are playing some tabletop game and at one point you are trying to hit a monster and have to roll a d20 to decide if you succeed

cinder sundial
#

“d20”?

vale wigeon
#

fair 20-sided die

#

tabletop game jargon

#

"standard" dice, as you might imagine, are known as d6

cinder sundial
#

I see, even I never see an die that is more than 6 sides

sleek girder
#

(if you want to see one, contact me)

vale wigeon
#

even I have never seen a die that has more than 6 sides

cinder sundial
#

Thank you

vale wigeon
#

these have the shape of an icosahedron

#

anyway ok

#

so let's say that on a roll of 1 through 8 you miss, on a roll of 9 through 19 you hit, and on 20 you get a critical hit

#

so there's two ways you could model this random experiment

#

one is you could have S = {1, 2, ..., 20} with each number assigned 5% probability, and then the events you care about would be M = {1,...,8}, H = {9,...,19} and C = {20}

#

and then the formula P(A)=|A|/|S| would work, bc each face is equally likely to show up

#

but you could also model it with a sample space of only 3 points: {miss, hit, crit}, with probabilities assigned unequally: P(miss)=40%, P(hit)=55%, P(crit)=5%

#

and then to claim you have a 1/3 chance of critical based on this alone would obviously be stupid

cinder sundial
#

I see

#

That’s a pretty intuitive yet life-related example

#

The question is solved now, thank you Ann

upbeat hornet
#

can you show your work?

ocean cloud
#

I got rid of the derivative on the left, by "integraling" both sides

#

got the point of
$x''-2x'-3x = -16te^-t$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

upbeat hornet
elfin fiber
#

did you solve the homogenous diffeq?

ocean cloud
ocean cloud
elfin fiber
upbeat hornet
ocean cloud
elfin fiber
#

Okay, what did you try?

ocean cloud
#

tried "guessing" it with the method of undetermined coefficients

elfin fiber
#

I would try

Ate^(-t)

#

and find A

ocean cloud
#

I did it

elfin fiber
#

thoughts?

#

what's A?

ocean cloud
#

and A is dependent on t

#

i get
$A = 16t/(t+2)$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

ocean cloud
elfin fiber
#

one sec

#

ok so

#

you need to assume the particular solution is of the form Ate^(-t) + Bt^2e^(-t)

#

Let me know if that works

ocean cloud
#

ok, I'll give it a shot

lone heartBOT
#

@ocean cloud Has your question been resolved?

ocean cloud
#

one question

#

so, if i get that A is dependend on t

#

it's wrong?

#

or rather, not complete enough of an answer

upbeat hornet
ocean cloud
#

well i've solved the equation

#

but the part with the asymptote is blocking me rn

#

as i'm getting that the solution has no horizontal asymptotes

lofty creek
#

what is x(t)?

ocean cloud
#

$x = c1e^{3t} + c2e^{-t} + te^{-t} + 2 t^2e^{-t}$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

ocean cloud
#

as the hogenous part of the equation is
$x''-2x'-3x=0$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

ocean cloud
#

giving the solutions -1 and 3

#
  • the particual part at the end
lofty creek
#

we also have our initial condition x(0)=1

#

so we can remove one of the c's

ocean cloud
#

how come?

#

we get

#

$1 = c1 + c2$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

lofty creek
#

so then you remove one c right?

#

because you can write c1 or c2 as the other

#

$c_1=1-c_2$ or $c_2=1-c_1$

ocean sealBOT
#

Flappie

lofty creek
#

so you can fill this into x(t)

ocean cloud
#

yes, and?

#

at a certain point in time the limit has to go towards inf

lofty creek
#

$x(t)=c_1(e^{3t}-e^{-t})+e^{-t}(1+t)+2t^2e^{-t}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Flappie

lofty creek
#

so what happens to x(t) as t goes to infinity

ocean cloud
#

goes to inf?

lofty creek
#

im kind of confused about the question

#

because it does not have a horizontal asymptote at t->inf

ocean cloud
lofty creek
#

it does have a horizontal asymptote as t->-inf

ocean cloud
#

ok, the question goes

#

Find all solutions for which $x(0) = 1$, and who have a horizontal asymptote when $t->inf$

#

uh, it's ugly

#

can i space it somehow

lofty creek
#

yes, you have the $'s at the start and end

#

only place it around the places you want it to be latexified

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

lofty creek
#

yes

#

so we have x(t) right?

#

and we have one variable we can change

ocean cloud
#

does that mean i can guess the cs for which horizontal asymptote exists?

lofty creek
#

c_1

#

so what c-1 do we need to plug in

#

such that x(t) has a horizontal asymptote at t->inf

lofty creek
ocean cloud
#

so c-1 = 0

lofty creek
#

yes

ocean cloud
#

c1-1, rather

lofty creek
#

c_1-1?

#

just simply c_1=0

#

because our term that is going crazy

#

is e^3t

ocean cloud
#

oh yeah, swapped c_1 and c_2

lofty creek
#

fair enough

ocean cloud
#

but yes, that

lofty creek
#

the constant infront of e^3t

#

needs to be 0

#

then what does x(t) become

ocean cloud
#

$e^{-t}(1+t) + 2t^2e^{-t}$

ocean sealBOT
#

ZmijaZ

lofty creek
#

does this have a horizontal asymptote at t->inf?

ocean cloud
#

it's 0 right?

lofty creek
#

so is it a horizontal asymptote?

ocean cloud
#

i like this form of student/teacher questioning haha

#

yep

lofty creek
#

:)

#

so if its a horizontal asymptote

#

are we done?

ocean cloud
#

yep, thanks a lot

#

greatly appriciated

lofty creek
#

:D

#

no problem

ocean cloud
#

the worst part is that i'll probably be asking a question or 2 more in the near future

#

after i've lost my mind with all possible ways to solve it

lofty creek
#

thats the cool part about this server

#

you can just open a new thread

#

whenever you need

#

:)

#

there is almost always someone online to help

ocean cloud
#

was kind of afraid of being to annoying tbh

lofty creek
#

that doesnt matter

#

if youre annoying then you just dont get anyone wanting to help you

#

but clearly i, and others, are still helping you

ocean cloud

'till next time

pliant cedar
#

hello

#

just send ur question

upbeat eagle
#

Is this correct for e?

#

[Its not done]

pliant cedar
#

so f(x) is supposed to be ax(3 - ax) ?

upbeat eagle
#

f(x) = x(3-x)

pliant cedar
#

what is a then

upbeat eagle
#

so f(ax) I thinkk is = ax(3-ax)

#

No?

pliant cedar
#

yeah but

#

theres no a in the finite region bounded by x(3-x) and the x axis

#

waeit

#

i may not have undesttood the question

upbeat eagle
#

Dw me too

slow sentinel
#

im guessing (a) is from the parametric equation x^2 = 4ay + c

#

So a would be 1/4 (from my understanding)

upbeat eagle
#

So, for part C

#

Becuase they just factored out the a

#

For e,
They did this???

pliant cedar
#

ah i get the question now

slow sentinel
#

Ohh

pliant cedar
#

lol

slow sentinel
#

A B C D and E are not options

upbeat eagle
#

wat

pliant cedar
#

so (e) is asking, what is the area between the curve y=f(ax) and the x axis

#

where a is some constant

upbeat eagle
#

Yes

#

I understand why the limitations are 0 and 3/a

#

OHHHHHHHHh i understand

#

Yep

#

got it

pliant cedar
#

😅

upbeat eagle
#

well thank you both

Hello

lone heartBOT
upbeat eagle
#

and then you have to divide it by (x-1) again

#

and then use that answer to divide by (x-1)

oak chasm
#

Sorry, what is the problem?

upbeat eagle
#

Wait ill draw it

#

So I am dividing it by (x-1) twice

#

I multiply the first equation by 12, to make it easier to factories, and it gives me an answer (ANS)

#

Now I proceed to divide ANS by (x-1) again

#

And it gives me ANS2,

#

Would I have to divide that ANS2, by 12 to undo, me multiplying it by 12 at the beggining?

oak chasm
#

No, I mean what is the problem, not what are the steps.

upbeat eagle
#

Ok ill show u the problem

#

This is the equation you have to divide twice by (x-1)

#

My question is that since its terrible to divide

#

Can I multiply it by 12

oak chasm
#

Why are you dividing?

upbeat eagle
#

Because you need to prove (x-1)^2 (kajdbjadg)=0

#

And you know that my picture divided by (x-1)^2

#

gives (kajdbjadg)

#

and you just need to show it

oak chasm
#

OK, so what is the x coordinate of A?

upbeat eagle
#

I dont know

oak chasm
#

Is this for a calculus course?

upbeat eagle
#

no nonono, but it technicaly is calculus?

#

Its just integration

#

Simple

oak chasm
#

OK, so you have the roots of y.

#

So, what's the x coordinate of B?

upbeat eagle
#

x = 1

oak chasm
#

Right, so what's the area from O to B?

upbeat eagle
#

5/12

oak chasm
#

OK, so they have a degree 4 polynomial.

#

Get it equal to 0.

#

Then, you can multiply it by 12 if you want.

#

You had a quadratic before.

upbeat eagle
#

Yes

oak chasm
#

OK, so what do you have after that?

upbeat eagle
#

no idea

#

I have no clue how to find A,

#

Becuase it gives me imaginary numbers on the calcaultor

ocean sealBOT
#

Chai T. Rex

oak chasm
#

So, get an equation from that that's equal to zero.

upbeat eagle
#

Left side -5/12 = 0

oak chasm
#

There's no L there.

upbeat eagle
#

But i you factorise it? im not sure which one would be A....

oak chasm
#

What's A?

upbeat eagle
#

But it also gives you imaginary nmbers

oak chasm
#

Oh, the point.

upbeat eagle
#

Yes sry

ocean sealBOT
#

Chai T. Rex

oak chasm
#

What do you get when you multiply both sides by -12?

upbeat eagle
#

-3x^4 - 4x^3 +12x^2 -5

oak chasm
#

By -12, not 12.

upbeat eagle
#

oh

#

3x^4 + 4x^3 -12x^2 +5

oak chasm
#

OK, now what is (x - 1)^2(3x^2 + 10x + 5) expanded?

upbeat eagle
#

3x^4 + 4x^3 -12x^2 +5

#

here is the the whole thing again, so you dont have to scroll

oak chasm
#

Did you do the expansion?

upbeat eagle
#

Yes

oak chasm
#

OK, so now you know they're equal and the problem is done.

upbeat eagle
#

Ok

#

What about finding A coord?

#

Do you know how I would go about that

#

Bc I have zero clue

oak chasm
#

OK, so you have (x - 1)^2(3x^2 + 10x + 5), right.

#

Why are we going backwards?

#

Usually, when you want to find a root, you have the equation equal to zero so that you can use the zero product property.

upbeat eagle
#

Alright?

oak chasm
#

We have (x - 1)^2(3x^2 + 10x + 5) = 0.

#

What are the four roots?

upbeat eagle
#

x= 1, ( -5+__/10 ) /3

oak chasm
#

What do you mean by __?

upbeat eagle
#

Sry there

#

Would it be -5+root10 /3

oak chasm
#

You can do sqrt(10).

upbeat eagle
#

bc that gives -1.8

oak chasm
#

If you want to show a square root.

#

So, which one is A's x coordinate?

upbeat eagle
#

-5 +sqrt(10) /3

oak chasm
#

OK.

#

What do the other roots mean geometrically?

upbeat eagle
#

My friend just sent me the markscheme

oak chasm
#

That leaves out what they mean geometrically, particularly with (-5 - sqrt(10))/3.

#

Think about what happens if you go further left than (-5 + sqrt(10))/3.

upbeat eagle
#

Thats the full one he told me

upbeat eagle
#

to -2

oak chasm
#

No, what happens to the area?

upbeat eagle
#

Bigger

oak chasm
#

It gets bigger until it crosses -2, then it gets smaller.

#

So, it needs to go far enough past -2 to cancel out what was added.

#

That happens where the other root is.

upbeat eagle
#

OH

#

Did not know that

oak chasm
upbeat eagle
#

Ah ok

#

< 3

oak chasm
#

The + part and the - part cancel out, so the area from the other root to O is the same as the area from A to O.

upbeat eagle
#

Right....

#

So the areas would be the same

oak chasm
#

Right.

upbeat eagle
#

Right aweasome

#

thats good info

#

🫡

#

catlove Thank you very much Chai

#

You're welcome.

can you share your working out?

solemn finch
#

Yah

#

Yes

candid flicker
#

that does not mean radius becomes 2+r

solemn finch

Then how will I calculate the new value of the radius

candid flicker
#

what does dA/dt stand for?

solemn finch
#

Change of area over time change of time

candid flicker
#

basically, rate of change of area
so assuming the radius is r
what would d(r)/dt stand for?

solemn finch
#

Rate of change of radius

candid flicker
#

okay tell me
what is d(4x^2)/dt

solemn finch
#

8x

candid flicker
# solemn finch 8x

that's where you're going wrong.... when differentiating 4x^2 with respect to t, we also multiply with a dx/dt in the end
so therefore, d(4x^2)/dt = 8x.dx/dt

lofty creek

its the chain rule

d(4x^2)/dx = 8x only

Hi 👋
I need help understanding how my teacher graphed the secant function. I missed this lesson and I’m not sure what she did here. Attached is her notes.

placid zinc
#

secθ is just 1/cosθ

#

So take any important value of cosθ, take its reciprocal, and you've got a value of secθ

stray burrow
#

That makes sense. But uh so the graph between the two parabolas that’s cosine right? Is that also part of the secant graph?

placid zinc
#

There's no parabolas here

The thin graph is cosθ

The thicker graph is secθ. Note secθ is one graph, just disconnected. It also goes on forever in both directions

I need help calculating a determinant

lone heartBOT
rain spear
#

idk what im doing wrong I used online caculators and the last one is -512

#

but I get a positive number

lone heartBOT
#

@rain spear Has your question been resolved?

@rain spear

rain spear
#

isnt that just

#

the first diagonal?

vale crag
#

ok how are you computing that determinant exactly ?

#

it's not really apparent

#

like what method are you using

rain spear
vale crag
#

?

rain spear
#

there is a small thing that im missing

rain spear
vale crag
#

I'm still not sure what you're talking about

#

there's a few different things about determinants and triangles

rain spear
vale crag
#

ok yea

rain spear
#

but I think I did that right

#

its just after

#

some calculation is fucked

#

and my brain is way too fried to get what im missing

#

I did it like 3 times already

vale crag
#

you should have 6 of them

#

so you missed two "triangles"

rain spear
vale crag
#

I only see 4

rain spear
#

the one above I called it quits

#

cuz not enough room

vale crag
#

40* - 20 lambda is -800 lambda

#

not -80

#

@rain spear

rain spear
#

now I can get to doing the hard part

#

damn man these multiplicactions

#

got me acting up

slim epoch
#

The other day I was going over the sumatoriums and productoriums and I was wondering if there was such a thing as a "restatorium" or "divisorium"?

slim epoch
#

If so, it would be done just like the 2 main ones, but with a subtraction or division series?

#

Would it be done with another letter instead of sigma or pi?

#

I have a lot of questions...

lone heartBOT
#

@slim epoch Has your question been resolved?

<@&286206848099549185>

alpine sable
#

you mean

#

$\sum_n a_n$? Same for product?

ocean sealBOT
slim epoch
#

No

alpine sable
#

but instead of this two for subtraction right?

slim epoch
#

Sigma is for summation.
Pi is for productorio.
"Restatorium"?
"Divisorial"?

alpine sable
#

what is restatorium

vale crag
#

so what do you mean actually, what should these new operations perform ?

#

the nice thing about addition and multiplication is that they're associative

#

the order you use to perform the additions doesn't matter, (1+2)+3 = 1+(2+3)

#

for substraction and division that doesn't work

slim epoch
#

That instead of adding or multiplying, subtract or divide

alpine sable
#

just put a minus sign for the first

#

$-\sum_n a_n$

ocean sealBOT
slim epoch
vale crag
#

well you have to specify the order yes

slim epoch
vale crag
#

that's exactly what I'm asking you to do

slim epoch
#

I mean if something like this exists: $\sum_n a_n$
but instead of the letter sigma another one that makes it subtract or divide

ocean sealBOT
#

H^Ψ(r)=EΨ(r)

vale crag
#

there's no standard thing for that

#

and i don't even know what that new operation of yours is supposed to do anyway

#

at some point, you have to explain it in detail

#

like give some examples or whatever

slim epoch
ocean sealBOT
#

H^Ψ(r)=EΨ(r)

slim epoch
#

Look, replace the letter sigma with any other letter that is not in use in this operation: $/sum_n a_n$.
And what that letter would do is subtract or divide the series (with it's respective rules)

ocean sealBOT
#

H^Ψ(r)=EΨ(r)

vale crag
#

and what do you mean by substract a series ?

slim epoch
#

The summation adds series, the "subtraction" subtracts them.

vale crag
#

that's also what I thought in the first place

slim epoch
slim epoch
#

Thanks anyway

alpine sable
#

there is not a global letter for that I know

vale crag
#

(sorry for the ping rize)

alpine sable
#

no problem

#

I was curious

#

I’ve seen capital delta used for subtraction which can be defined in terms of capital sigma notation

last walrus
#

You define subtraction as addition of integers. You define division as multiplication by a rational number. Then we only require addition and multiplication 😎

alpine sable
#

Since a - b = a + (-b)

vale crag
#

let's say I give you the sequence '1 2 3 4 5 6', how would you compute the 'restatorium' of it and what would be the result ? @slim epoch

alpine sable
vale crag
#

I didn't ask you

alpine sable
#

Thats what they mean

vale crag
#

who knows what they mean

alpine sable
#

I do

vale crag
#

are you them?

alpine sable
#

Yes

#

chill

#

logic dog wait the answer

#

@slim epoch put an example of divisorium also

#

thx

alpine sable
#

That’s how big delta notation is defined in terms of big sigma notation

#

You can use an upside down pi symbol or some other symbol and do something similar for division

#

I don't think so by the way, the notation of - sum_n a_n is equivalent to say -(a_0 + a_1 + ... a_n) = -a_0 -... - a_n

#

Write it using the notation without products

#

but, I will wait the answer

alpine sable
#

You multiplied the series by negative 1

tepid hearth
alpine sable
#

Define big delta notation in terms of big sigma notation

#

I show a different thing

#

from my idea

#

Ok

alpine sable
#

What were you saying “I don’t think so” to?

#

About your idea, for me is better to say in this way. In fact, for be sure I wrote "but, I will wait the answer"

#

That’s literally how it’s defined. It’s not my idea.

alpine sable
#

no

#

If you are talking about big delta notation

#

I'm not talking about that

how do I solve this with U substitution starting from step 1 on part 1

#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
vague coral
#

wrong

thin sedge
#

ok

elfin fiber
#

2u - 5 = 2(x-5) - 5 = 2x - 15

#

now do you see what to do?

vague coral
#

2(u+5)-5 = 2u + 10 - 5 = 2u +5

thin sedge
#

hmm

#

yea I don’t get it

#

so u put u for x

#

?

vague coral
#

you said u = x-5

#

so 2x-5 becomes 2(u+5)-5 = 2u + 5
