are you rotating 90 degrees each time?
Yes but it’s double direction
One o clock other anti o’clock
It’s the only way u get this sequence
that's what I meant by impossible
is that you can't have the same center for all 4 rotations
If you go the same rotation 90 degrees no
If u do double rotation yes
If you rotate more than 90 degrees yes
So there are two possibilities
1->2 image = 90 degree 2->3 =270 degree
Or
90 degree one direction then 90 degree inverse direction

I'm having issues with solving this differential equation:
\begin{align}
\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{1}{245}(49^2 - v^2)
\end{align}
Trouser Zipper
i get to:
\begin{align*}
\frac{1}{49^2-v^2} \frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{1}{245}
\end{align*}
Trouser Zipper
After that I try integrating both sides with respect to t
and I do a substitution on the left with v = 49sinx, so that v^2 = 49^2 sin^2x
that way, I end up with \begin{align*}
\frac{1}{49^2} \int \frac{1}{1-\sin^2{x}}dx = \frac{1}{49^2}\int \frac{1}{\cos^2{x}}dx = \frac{1}{49^2}\tan{x}
\end{align*}
Trouser Zipper
ah, that's huge, thanks
o that might be helpful
ty, but i am going to try to work it out with what you both have given me for now
yeah i uh went back and changed my thing so that i use x = v/49
so right now my work looks like [ \frac{1}{49^2} \frac{1}{1-(\frac{v}{49})^2} \frac{dv}{dt}]
Trouser Zipper
there is what you sent earlier
which would be the same as if i had never done what i did...
ah i had to search it up
derivative of inverse tanh^-1x... i'm sad that i had to search it up but i don't think i ever would have gotten it otherwise
anyway big thank you for the help

i know how to do this question
but i have no idea what its actually doing
so what i did was
r = parmetric equation of c2 = (x, -x^2 + 4)
then i substitute that into vector field F
and then i do dr/dx dx = (dr/dx) dx
dr/dx is derivative of r with respect to x
i sub it in
F(r(x,y)) dot product (dr/dx) dx = that formula
boom there u go
but i dont understand whats going on
im substituting the equation of a line, into a fector field, then taking the integral of that line on the vector field?
so what exactly is the value im calculating working out?
is it summing up each of the individual points of the vector field on that line?
you're summing up each individual vector field point, dotted with your tangent vector
eg if the vector field was a force
this would give you the work done to move from point A to B

what did he do wrong since he only got one answer when he should get two
-3
0
i didnt do it
but its the task
that asks us to show what he did wrong
0
How do i know that it should be 0
using the abc- formula?
How did you find that x=-3 and x=1 cuz idk if i did it correctly
yes the abc thingy
quadratic formula
ax^2+bx+c=0
I dont understand why
when you divide by x+3 you are implicitly saying that x is not equal to -3, otherwise you would be dividing by 0 and thats not allowed
so you are missing out on the possibility that x=-3
what value is given to it
given to what?
x is still unknown at the point you divide by x+3
but you have missed out on the possibility that x=-3
since it becomes 0?
i dont get this part quite
so you would need to check whether x=-3 is as solution, as it could be a solution in addition to the ones you get going forward
i know that the answers is 1 and -3 by using the quadratic formula
Fredrick arrived at x=1 by assuming that x is not -3, as thats what allowed him to divide by x+3
he still needs to check whether x=-3 is a solution
so he needs to do the quadratic formula first to check what the different answers are?
no, he needs to check any options that he assumed x cannot be when he does division
in this case -3
so he needs to check every single number till he finds out?
i dont understnad
understand*
you only check the options that you had to exclude in order to do the division
he excluded x=-3 so that he could divide by x+3
he needs to check x=-3
at the second step, we are dividing by $x+3$, implicitly assuming $x+3\neq 0 \implies x\neq -3$, because otherwise it will be division by zero. however, $x=-3$ is a valid answer, because you have $(x+3)$ on both sides which could be both 0, effectively making 0=0 which is true.
artemetra
so every time you divide by something like that, you need to also check if you didn't get rid of a root
if in a different question you were to at some point divide by say x-5, then you would need to check whether x=5 is a solution
in this case he divided by x+3, so needs to check if x=-3 is a solution. it happens to also be a solution in this case, sometimes it might not be, but you still need to check

Hi, I was trying this question and decided to approach it using a coordinate system and calculating the distances, then proceeded to calculate the left hand side and right hand side separately and seeing if they were equal, but they weren't. I retried it a few times and I can't find any errors, so why won't it work? Have I accidentally made an assumption or something?
LHS ends up being 4px and RHS ends up being 2 similar but messy roots subtracted from each other (the inside of the roots only differs by a minus, but there's not relaly a way to combine them)
@still ibex Has your question been resolved?
@still ibex Has your question been resolved?
@craggy dagger
Is there anything wrong with my setup?
Unless like did i label the square wrong
@still ibex Has your question been resolved?
asssumptions are fine, just that you have messed up a bit on the distance formula
How exactly?
e.g.
you've assumed A to be (-x,x)
then |PA| should be √((-x-p)²+(x-q)²) which is √((x+p)²+(x-q)²)
Side note: Since your setup is really nice, you should make it even more decent by setting up A,B,C,D in Q1,Q2,Q3,Q4 respectively to make it easier to calculate next time 😛
I thought it would work like this?
Oh wait
is it because
q is gonna be a negative number
so it ends up being x minus something
I calculated all of the distances using a similar logic
you can say that, but that's what you do after the setup and calculations
also, P is a point on arc CD
so p might be negative too
true
see i'm bad at learning formulae so i kinda wanted to do it by intuition instead of using the distance formula
and i figured if i treat them all as positive quantities, it'd work out
you can first setup correctly, then start to use the fact that (p,q) is on arc CD and it's properties to prove
e.g.
if you really want q to be positive, and conside p in the positive side, you can split cases
like
Case 1: for p>0
Case 2! for p<0
Case 3: for p=0
and you can also set P as (p,-q) for q>0
but that's another story
😆
that makes sense
but i don't entirely understand why my method didn't work
like if we just assume that p>0
that case
and q is just a distance
then is my way of calculating AP right?
then i calculated the other ones in the same way
but didn't get the two sides to be equal after i evaluated them
e.g. if q is just a distance and p>0, then P will actually be (p,-q) and -q=-√(2x²-p²), which come back to q√(2x²-p²), which is still good up till now
but then since (p,-q) is on CD, you might have to use some fact that p<x and q>x
which might mess up the calculations somewhere
oh yeah that's true
that probably is it yeah
it's hard to use an inequality in solving an equality tho
i can't imagine how that could be done
can you show the rest of your work so that i can check?
it's like 2 pages of messy scribbles all over the place lol
but i did it twice and got the same answers each time
so i think all the algebra was right
but as you said, it doesn't take into account the fact that P can only be on CD, so i don't think my method would work anyway
you can try and show it if you want 😛 I don't mind reading
lets see
They were the exact workings I had (the guy beside me kept doodling on the page, sorry about that)
reading
i tried it like a normal geometry problem too, but didn't have any luck, which is when i swapped to trying to coordinate system
Perhaps if the point P was written as (x + p, x + q) instead?
Which then gives the restriction that P is on the arc CD?
Given that p is an integer and q is a natural number
I feel like that could actually work
I don’t see any problems with it
I’ll give it a go tomorrow hopefully if I have the time
But it’s almost midnight here now lol
finished reading
a few things:
- you can keep the q as q all untill you've done simplifying, but in this case, it won't be much easier😆
- this is a very decent of work, and please don't feel bad posting, it's definitely not "messy scribble"
and Finally
2x²±2p√(2x²-p²)
= (2x²-p²)±2p√(2x²-p²)+p²
= ( √(2x²-p²) ± p )²
and you're done
this is the final step for proving, hope that helps!
Wait so this method will work?
right now, i think P is in CD is a constraint helps you to make it easier to solve using geometry only, the fun fact is that it's useful for all points on the circle
I was acrually thinking to myself “the only way this could work out is if I could somehow complete the square”
But I couldn’t see how
And thought it was more likely that my workings had an error
But then I did something
your working is decently fine
Actually wait nvm lol
Is it formal enough to just say 4px = (that mess) and simplify?
Or do you need to evaluate each side separately
I think you have to do the latter
?
But idk if I’d ever spot completing the square like that lol
Like we have that LHS = 4px
you will, there are a lot of times
So would we have to get an equation that says RHS = 4px
that you'll encounter something like that
Or can we just take 4px = (the other stuff) and square both sides etc. and show that they’re the same?
ah i see, you don't need to do both sides in this case
you just need one way
e.g.
|PB|•|PD|-|PA|•|PC|
= that mess
= something
= another something
= ...
= 4px
= |PA|²-|PB|²
Rigjt okay
|PB|•|PD|-|PA|•|PC|
= that mess
= something
= another something
= ...
= 4px
= |PA|²-|PB|²
AHHH YES ITS SO SATISFYING
hint for your further studies:
you can try to split the non-squareroot term into the 2 piece of the sqrt term ÷ 2 to see if it works
A problem that I first attempted 4 months ago, finally found the answer 😄
congratulations!
now sleep 😛
good night!
I don’t exactly get what you mean by this 🗿
e.g.
√(3+2√2)
And do what with that?
it's more like completing square XD
Cheers!
And for being both really patient and encouraging
I really appreciate it!!
Enjoy the rest of your day :D
you too!

yeah that's correct but two stylistic points
- you should get out of the habit of using x for multiplication, especially if you're using x as a variable in the same expression
- i'd probably write that as $3e^{2x} + 2e^{-x} + 1$; just looks cleaner to me. but what you have is equivalent so nbd

Yee
I got a feeling for the right side
Let’s convert them into cos and sin
Of course
Of course my gentleman
I want to get it out of the denominator
So
Let multiply the top and bottom by cos
hmmm this feels weird
,w (sinA-cosA+1)/(sinA+cosA-1) = 1/(secA-tanA)
i just check Wolframalpha
I don't think it is true for all theta
on Desmos they have the same graph
Just multiply both numerator and denominator with sinA + cos A +1 . You'll get it.
Sohcahtoa baby

how do i determine whether the orthocenter is inside, outside, or on the triangle using coordinates of the vertex and the orthocenter
so a triangle can be defined on the cartesian plane as the solution of a system of inequalities
we can set up those inequalities and plug in the values for the orthocenter, and if it follows all 3, it must be inside the triangle
that's an idea
so for example if the triangle has the vertices (-2, 1) (2, 1) (0, 4)
the inequalities we can set are like
-2 <= x <= 2
0 <= y <= 1
but then don't those theoretical inequalities form a rectangle
we can use x and y in the same inequality, too
for example if we wanted to express the triangle with vertices (0,0), (1,0), (0,1), we have this:
x >= 0
y >= 0
x + y <= 1
we just have to find the equations for the lines connecting each of the points and turn those into inequalities
OHHHH
based on the location of the third point
that makes sense
okay i think i get it now
but how do i decide what to convert into inequalities
let's do this case as an example
i think you'll understand the ide after that
the easiest line to solve is the one between (-2,1) and (2,1)
it's just y=1
mhm
since the third point is above this line, then all points in the triangle must follow y >= 1
then we do the next line
do i need to use the slope intercept form of the side as an inequality
you can use the slope intercept form yeah
almost
yeah
okay
and the final one is pretty much the same

Hi
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 was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
right?
ok
sxt
oop
s*t?
yes
where s is distance and t is time?
wdym?
what is s in your formula?
(asking cuz different schools might use different notation)
speed
ok
this is equivalent of saying that Ethan travelled one part of those 203 and Noah travelled the other
Ok
so we get $v\cdot t + (v-64)\cdot t=203$
artemetra
okie ty
You sure? Using your method, v would be 104 km/h, $v \cdot1.4$ would be 145.6km, and $65km/h \cdot 1.4h$ would be 94km, they don't add up to 203km.
Good
,w v*1.4 + (v-64)*1.4 = 203
,w (104.5)*1.4 + (104.5-64)*1.4
you did something wrong
Exactly, v would be 104.5. And vt+vt= 203 wouldn't work.
?
it's not supposed to be vt+vt
it's supposed to be vt+(v-64)t
are you confusing it with $v_1 t + v_2 t$?
Supposing Ethan and Noah goes in the left and right direction. The distance Ethan travelled is $65km/h \cdot 1.4 h=91$, and Noak $v \cdot 1.4h$. Their sum distance would be 91 + 1.4v = 203.
ethan doesn't have 65 km/h as his speed
the only thing we know is that his speed is 65 km/h SLOWER THAN Noah's speed
Ops, my bad. I misread that.
it's okay lol
yall so smart lol
you don't get how to solve it or what i wrote?
i got it now
awesome
You wrote 64 instead of 65.

What are the difference between local maximum and absolute maximum?
a local maximum is bigger than all nearby points
an absolute maximum is bigger than all other points
an absolute maximum is also a local max, but not vice versa
so basically, local max is the highest y in the interval and absolute max is the highest y in the whole function?
so the absolute max can be a local max but not other way around?
close but not quite. you maybe mean the correct thing
the whole function could still be defined on an interval
so you need to be precise with your language
let's say it's a continuous function?
Wat I mean the whole function is referring to a continuous function
this doesnt really have anything to do with continuity or not
so, the function is defined on some domain
which might mean an interval or all real numbers
a local max is the biggest point on a smaller subinterval
the absolute max is the biggest point on the whole domain
I thought it does cuz let'say there's a hole where the y value could be inf
well then the function wouldnt be defined there and has no local or abs max there
which isnt an issue
so absolute max could also happen in an interval where it indicates the highest points of all the x which are one of the critical points?
ohh I see I see
the absolute max is just the biggest of all the local maximums
I thought the local max is indicating the highest point in the interval?
yeah that's why it is in a certain interval? Did I get the idea wrong?
if you imagine the function as some kind of landscape. then the hills are the local maximums. and the biggest hill is the absolute max
it reminds me of noise map and I think I kinda get it
so whenever there's like a curve up or curve down in the graph
it's indicating a local max there
am I correct?
not technically because it could be something like an upside down V which has no "curve"
but in practice its good enough to think like that
so it's a point where it turns from increasing to decreasing?
or other way around

- Is there some gap in my understanding
Why is C=0
You probably have to assume V(0)=0
I just assumed c was zero since I didn’t know the initial volume
Yea the problem is underspecified

hi, i think this is the answer but could someone give me a second opinion, thank you!
whats wrong with D
since the number under the square must be 0 it cant be 0 or a nonzero value
unless im misunderstanding the question

when i want to inverse a function f(x)
i have the function
((y^2)-1)/5
do i just switch the y value for x?
More or less
Switch the x and y, then solve for y
Or in your case, first solve for x, then switch the x and y
does this work for every inverse or just mine
It works for every function (whose inverse exists)
Does each input of one corresponds exactly with each output of the other?
If I understand you correctly: You ask if f(x) = y always implies that x = f inverse (y) ?
Actually, this is false. Let f(x) = x^2. Then f(-3) = 9, but f inverse (9) = 3.
Ok that’s because sqrt(x) and x^2 are not inverse functions
Sqrt(x) only gives and accept positive values
@tiny bay Has your question been resolved?
how do you know if a funchions inverse exists?
Checking if it’s bijective
In other words: Checking that no two x values give the same y value
In other words: Horizontal line test
The inverse function of( f(x) = \sqrt{x} ) is ( f^{-1}(x) = x^2 ) with the restriction ( x \geq 0 ).

Evaluate
You do not

You're conditioning on them failing the exam, not getting less than 6 hours sleep (as the exam result is what's known)
10/120?
10/18
Pick one
10/120??
That's the probability that they failed and got less than 6 hours sleep
This is not true
P(failed AND less than 6) = 10/120
Not the same thing
$\cap$
For it
Steakanator
Anything else need to be added?
What do you mean added?
I mean that’s it?
What's "that"?
Well the question asks for P(failed | less than 6), which you haven't yet found
What that
Well how is P(A|B) defined?
AB
What?
Idk
How have you historically been taught to compute conditional probabilities?
No I think
The question started with "how," it's not a yes or no question
Idk
Well then you have something you need to go back and review
If you can't differentiate between P(failed AND less than 6) and P(failed | less than 6) then you need to revise a little
That's also something for you to review
We just started that recently
then you should have notes you can review

Hi, how do I solve these? Just give me an idea, and I'll do the rest
Show that the following sequences are convergent and determine their sums
Show the divergence of series (using the condition of divergence of series):
Using the comparison criterion, examine the divergence of the series
Using the d'Alenbert criterion, examine the convergence of the series
Using the Cauchy criterion, examine the convergence of the series
Using the Cauchy criterion of compaction, examine the divergence of the series

@lime hemlock Has your question been resolved?
for the first one you can think of spliting it into terms like vn , v(n-1) such that vn - v(n-1) would be some constant times the Tn
i think you can use the same for the second one
you can use the same method in 4th too i think
(ping when here)
yeah
Tn -> nth term of the series
we're doin this, right?
yeah so here for a
Tn---> 1/(2n-1) (2n+1)
okay
can you split it into two terms
yes, 1/(2n-1) * 1/(2n+1)
?
idk
could you pls solve the 1st one on paper
and then explain your reasoning
i think it'd work better

hello, i need some one to explain radicals and their rules
clarification question: are you talking about this?
(why does that look like a weak CAPTCHA)
yep
yes 2^2 is 4 because 2 x 2 is four
that's great
give me more examples
2^3 is 8
alrighty
radicals answer the question of "?^3 is 8. what is ?".
is that enough for a start?
from there, a lot of rules will follow
im currently learning on how to simplify radicals
good luck
for the moment, tell me what you're struggling with in particular
sorry for responding late
so uhhhhh
like the rules of radicals and how to simplify them
well, give me a few example problems
then we can do it better
that, you need rule 4
so, it's "?^3 = 2; ?^2 ="
a nice thing to notice is that you can square the ? and the 2, to make "(?^2)^3 = 2^2"
as for why a^b = c then (a^d)^b = c^d, I'll just use a concrete example
2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8
(2__^4__)^3 = (2 * 2 * 2 * 2)^3 = (2 * 2 * 2 * 2) * (2 * 2 * 2 * 2) * (2 * 2 * 2 * 2) = 4096 = 8__^4__ = (2 * 2 * 2)^4
so the base and the result can both be exponentiated :)
ok thanks

matrix size: 3
what is this
this is a symmetric matrix
I need an algorithm, preferably using permutaitions or recursive functions, that can detect how many symmetric matrices are possible in a determined matrix size
the matrices should be symmetric to the main diameter
and there can only be 1 checked cell (with the 1 mark), on each row
can you solve it?

but the time complexity of my solution is too high

I want to reach at least 30
sorry i don't understand the problem in the slightest
do you have the problem in writing
wait a minute
The problem is asking for a recursive solution to find the number of symmetric matrices of size n×n filled with zeros and ones, such that each row contains exactly one element with the value of 1, and the matrix is symmetric with respect to its main diagonal.

for example if the matrix size is 5,
there can be 26 possible symmetric matrices in it.
out of 5^5 which is 3125
and for 2 it is 2. out of 2^2 which is 4
@vale wigeon here is explained it
I think this is the hardest problem I've encountered in my life lol
ok this statement is clearer
can you show your code
sure
@vale wigeon did you read it?
do you think its possible to make it as fast as they want?
@rough jungle Has your question been resolved?
sorry, i only got out of class just now
do you want to only COUNT them or are you also required to display each one?
don't be,
will you be able to guide me through this?
i would like a straight answer to this
yes,
only count them
??
ok only count
then all of that code you wrote goes out the window
iterating over what seems like all (or a huge subset of) zero-one matrices is not the way to go at all
great so you know a solution
anyway, im gonna have to present it to you in a decidedly not programmer-like fashion.
what is a "permutation math formula" specifically?
regardless, here is what i am thinking of...
in my 11th grade in math class there were problems like:
how many 6 letter words can be made using "abcd" that start with "b" and end with "c", and etc
the solution of them was using permutations
ok but i don't know what you mean when you say the phrase "permutation math formula".
and you are kinda throwing me off with that alone.
give me your solution ignore that lol
regardless...
let f(n) be the count of symmetric 0-1 matrices of size n. then the following are true:
f(1) = 1, f(2) = 2
and for n >= 3, we have the following recurrence relation:
f(n) = f(n-1) + (n-1)*f(n-2)
and here is how i derived that recurrence
also in each row there can be only 1 one
the rest are 0
so if i convert this to code it's done?
sure, but are you interested in hearing how i got this?
don't be!
you are a life saver thank you!
you don't know how hung up on this i am
yes
right
but i think i know,
because you are smart
so every one of your matrices has either a 1 or a 0 in its top left corner
if the top left corner is 1, then the rest of the first row and first column are full of zeros, and the rest is a matrix of the same type (0-1, symmetric, single 1 per row/col) but of order n-1
if the top left corner is a 0, then there is a 1 in exactly one of the n-1 spots remaining in the first row, and a 1 in the corresponding spot in the first column. strike out that row and the first row, and that col and the first col, and what you will be left with will be a symmetric 0-1 permutation matrix of order n-2.
i am on the go rn so can't draw it. otherwise i would.
what if in the first row, the third column is 1.
in this case the first column of the third row has to be 1.
... yeah? that's part of my second case.
and a 1 in the corresponding spot in the first column
i am aware that a 1 off the diagonal forces a 1 at its reflection
by symmetry
I don't understand your formula at all
what are the inputs of the function
can you simplify it a bit, or give me a small code
there is only one input: n, the size of the matrices to be counted.
def f(n):
if n == 1:
return
if n == 2:
return
f(n-1) + (n-1)*f(n-2)
am i doing it a bit right?
anyway here is a naïve implementation that will run slow but adheres closely to the formula:
def matrix_count(n):
if n <= 0:
# throw some error or NaN or whatever
# ig also handle non integer input somehow
sys.segfault()
elif n == 1:
return 1
elif n == 2:
return 2
else:
return f(n-1) + (n-1)*f(n-2)
oh my god
Ann
you are a genius
thank you so much
it worked!
omg it calculated 30
i hope you don't take the segfault thing seriously, but you're welcome.

$Let \ ( f ) and ( g ) be monotonically increasing functions. It always holds that \g(n) = \Omega(f(n)) ) or ( f(n) = \Omega(g(n)) ).$
how can i prove or disaprove this pls
try some examples first. see if it is true for those
if yes, try to understand why its true for those
if not, then you found a counterexample already
\f isn't a command btw
wtf haha

Let $f$ and $g$ be monotonically increasing functions. It always holds that $f(n)=\Omega(g(n))$ or $g(n)=\Omega(f(n))$.
Ann
should we also assume f(n), g(n) > 0?
so as not to get any silly edge case bullshit with negatives...
so its disprove i guess
is this in the context of like algorithm complexity
sounds like a yes to me
if so then you can probably assume the functions are positive
cause the ones you care about are like, time or space complexity for algos. and those are positive
got any idea on 2 functions for example?
it dosnt really matter if its time or space its just a math question
even if its algo course
where i study algo course is 95% math
if not 99%
i mean ok like
alright
i have an idea but it might be a little too spoilery
bc i know of a pretty elegant way to characterize big Omega and other asymptotic notations
on the condition that neither function takes on the value zero too often.
I can draw a graph of 2 functions which show that its not correct
but i dont know how to define the 2 functions
can you show me the graph you have in mind
sure sec
maybe i can come up with something fitting
Here
got my idea? x.d
wait haha actually
I can just do sin and cos? lol
@vale wigeon
ye something like this
but wait its more easy just o pick sin and cos? no?
to*
oh wait
no
lol
and the points where g(n) goes down to zero, does have a vertical tangent there?
Big Omega doesn't just mean "one function is above the other"
i can draw another 2 graphs
You are trying to find a counterexample, which is fine, but I'm pretty sure the statement is true
Get to the definition of Big Omega

Hahaha
how do these continue tho
I think in the end one function will win
ye true
one function will always be on the upside of the another one
you have not specified them in full so it's impossible to evaluate this as a counterexample or not
I think it is matter
right
well here is the definition of big omega:
$we say that (T(n) = \Omega(f(n))) if there are positive constants (c) and (n_0) such that (T(n) \geq c \cdot f(n)) for all (n \geq n_0), $

should i to assume negatively that its not true?
i don't know to be honest
i can't tell intuitively if we should be going for proof or disproof
The fact that both functions must be monotonically increasing makes it tricky
Im trying to prove assuming negatively that its not true
im trying to say that there is no c > 0 and n0 in N
That's not how negation works, you need to keep the n0 part
I think im stuck x.d
wait can i assume that if g(n) is not big omega of f(n) and then i prove that f(n) is big omega of g(n) ?
Yes that's what the statement means
same thing if f(n) is not big omega of g(n) and then prove that g(n) is big omega of f(n)
That's exactly the same thing, you just changed the names of your functions
dont tell the answer pls lemme try
sec
ye ye
if I say that g(n) is not big omega of f(n) then i can say that there is no c (constant) > 0 g(n) >= c*f(n)
@fickle heath
Yes for all n > n0
so if i also calc g(n+1)
then i substract
i got that its wrong lol
sec lemme screenshot
@fickle heath
<@&286206848099549185>
@polar prism Has your question been resolved?
can I divide the problem to 2 cases?:
case1 when f(n) > g(n) and then I can pick c = 1 and say that g(n) is big omega of f(n) @fickle heath
or 3 cases even
case 2 when g(n) > f(n) and then if we pick c = 1 and say that f(n) is big omega of g(n)
case 3: g(n) = f(n) then we can say that the function is big omega of itself
@vale wigeon
and since f(n) and g(n) are monotonoically increasing then for every n0 > n f(n0) >= f(n)
so its true to every n >= n0

have you tried looking it up or looking in your book or do you just not understand it?
we have a wiki on it and i cant seem to grasp it
The antiderivative of that function, is the function which when you differentiate you get your original function.

dicrete math
It represents the composition of functions.
I think r and s are relations rather than necessarily functions
Pretty weird to name relations with lowercase letters though
Anyway, given relations $R \subseteq A \times B$ and $S \subseteq B \times C$, the relation $S \circ R \subseteq A \times C$ is defined by $(a, c) \in S \circ R$ for some $a \in A$ and $c \in C$ iff there exists $b \in B$ such that $(a, b) \in R$ and $(b, c) \in S$

Given the set ( A = {2, 3, 6} ), define a relation on ( A \times A ) such that ( aRb ) if and only if when ( 3 ) divides ( b ), then ( a = b ).
Fate
2 is in relation with 3 right
Cuz implication is false only if A is correct and B is not
But 3 isnt relation with 2, cuz thats the only thing where implication gets false
Can anyone check?
what is aRb
