log
yes
is that what u got
it slighlty differs
which part
yes its right
if is xsinx
i sloved it further
and i got the answer in terms of y
yes
other than this thats what u got?
yeah exactly
e^x(x-1)/xsinx + C/xsinx, x ≠ nπ, n ≠ 0
you dont have to do all the stuff here
with positive and negative x
.
yes right
why some places they have the positive and the negative cases
no no if its mod then just open it
mod is abs value?
yes then you put the limit on it
the possible limit
no not here
okay
they specify it in the question
i see
yes
okay thank you

i understand all of this up until it goes = e^0 = 1
is it because we took the log of both sides?
Yes, since you took ln of both sides and found the limit of lny to reverse it you take e of that

is 1+55+55^2+55^3+...+55^90 prime or composite ???
what do you think
So far i have already checked that 2,3,5,7,11,13,17 dont divide it
Light Yagami
also equal to $\frac{55^{91}-1}{54}$
Light Yagami
13×7
,,\sum_{r=0}^{6}55^{13r}(\frac{55^{13}-1}{54})
Light Yagami
this is 7 groups of 13 👆🏻
I didn't understand what this step is. Can anyone explain?
thanks
OP grouped the terms into 7 groups of 13
we make 7 groups of 13, (1+55+...+55^12)+55^13(1+55+...+55^12)+...

i know the asymptote is y=-3, but when i plug in values for x they are all resulting in points below the asymptote?
and?
is that ok?
why should it not be?
because if i try to put those points there is no graph line
not sure what you mean
if thats a software issue then I cant help with that
the graph is below the asymptote. that is correct

im not understanding something here
why is my answer double theirs
cuz i thought i was only finding hypotenuse
which is 1 tension
and they will be the same
Nope. Since there r 2 cables, it would be 2t
i dont understand why
Wait, I'll have to see ur solution properly once
See, both the cables work together to balance out the force
The weight force is 245N
And each cable handles half of that
122.5N
Hence $\cos{52.5^{\circ}}=\frac{122.5}{T_{cable}}$
so what force did i really find here?
Suika
how would u draw dat?
I didn't get what u mean by this
liek how would i draw all the forces on
Like, as in visualise it?
draw a free body diagram?
ya
Would this be easier to visualise?
wait since forces are balanced here and its in equilibrium
force down must = force up
so Tdown + Tdown = Tup
Yes
oh
W = 2T_y
Yes
In lower case

detirmine the volume. im trying to find the bounds here. what is the thought process behind this i thought the bounds would be (0 -> 2pi, 0->sqrt(3), 0->sqrt(4-x^2-y^2) )
but its acctually (0 -> 2pi, 0->sqrt(3), -sqrt(4-x^2-y^2)->sqrt(4-x^2-y^2) )
so 0->2pi is the area around the sphere we are searching for, 0->sqrt(3) is the distance but what is the last one? the outer shell?

are histograms/distribution graphs illustrating F(x) or f(x)?
uh whats a distribution graph
if you sample data and put it into a histogram it will begin approaching the pdf
if the graph is called pdf then whats the graph of F(x)?
its just a graph
the smooth thing you call pdf
the cdf graph isn't that useful in general
you're just gonna plug and find values from it
also idk what this means exactly
should F(x) be even called a distribution function?
the graph isnt called pdf, the funcion is
its called the cumulative distribution function
ohh
if we int pdf in an interval thats between 0 and +inf, what would the result look like on the cdf?
idk
its not a useful thing in general
oh wait
youre integratig the pdf
you'll get some offset version of the cdf
is it a portion of the cdf or is it a transformed cdf?
its the CDF + some constant
from the properties of integrals
You're asking $\displaystyle \int_a^b f(t) \dd{t}$ right?
neon
actually before that, definite int gives a number, then how can it be represented on a cdf which shows a collection of numbers? unless its just 1 x value of the cdf giving 1 single y
yes

im confused on a and b
i don’t hmeven know how to start
idek how to read
wtf is that
$a)\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{(-2)^n\sqrt{n}}{5^{n+1}}$
where did u get 2n
please help im struggling with it
I'm so sorry wrong server
which 2n?
im curious what server ur sending it on
$b)\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\sin(\frac{1}{n})}{n}$
dawg that’s e
wanted to ask if i did these integrals right

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
i already said it
Dunno where to begin?
yes
@bleak heath can u help me
Are there any particular methods that they expect you to use?
direct comparison, limit comparison, and ratio
So, for the first one, you write it in this way:
$\sum\frac{\sqrt{n}}{5(-\frac{5}{2})^n}$
uh what
Suika
As n approaches infinity,
The denominator grows much faster than the numerator
Hence, the last term approaches 0
Hence the summation exists
Is that a valid proof that you can use?

I don't actually understand what a b and d are considered here
a seems like a local maximum but thats wrong, d doesn't appear to be a local maximum or minimum and b seems like a local minimum
Honestly I don't know what local means, but it seems that b is local minimum
local means nearby
Between increasing and decreasing [a;c], c is the bigger value
I.e., the functions behavior around x=a.
I think between an increasing and decreasing
For a, there isn’t a second side to it.
wouldn't that make a a minimum then?
It has to have both a left and right side.
s doesn't have a right side tho
Look at graph
Technically speaking, the limit from the left doesn’t exist, so we can’t necessarily classify a as a maximum.
Yes.
and d isn't minumum and max either then
Yep.
thats literally wrong though
There might be multiple points that correspond to each cateogry. Keep that in mind.
it autofilled into a local minimum existing so one of them has to be a minimum, I already tried entering all of them as non mins or maxs
Why would a be a local minimum...?
d at the middle of the whole thing, it must be neither
its not it just auto filled to an answer I can't leave it blank
a local minimum must exist because I cant leave that section blank
We determined this already.
the thing is
Then just put in b instead.
correct me if im wrong but because b isn't differentiable its not a minimum or maximum correct?
Which is b, right?
Inverted cusp?
No, differentiability doesn’t have to imply there isn’t a minimum or maximum.
If you see it have a dip, it is a local minimum.
GG
I already tried that earlier
Where did a go?
with this answer
old answer
Maybe b and r?
bro ngl I don't understand this 💀
Try to find out what is local
I think this is just an error on the computer’s end, personally.
r is the absolute minimum its the smallest point on the graph
I see, maybe u need to put it as well such as local min

b should be a local minimum since there's a smaller overall minimum here (r) and (a, d) should be neither max nor min
the problem is having b as the local minimum
is apparently wrong
and either theres more than 1 local minimum
This has been disproven.
^ Talk to your professor about it.
as a local minimum?
Yes
and then for neither I put a and b?
oh my I just realised that b will not be differentiable
Try it, we don't know
i has opposite half-tangents
yeah but i've already been told that doesn't matter the minimum can still exist at that point no?
minimum can't exist since a condition for a local minima is f'(x) = 0
that specific point being a kink in the graph cannot be differentiated
I don't remember the exact reason why, could be what lucifer mentioned
Try to put, "no local minimum points"
^
"
okay well I got locked out of the question
i'll ask my prof about it in class today
i don't understand
Even @north rover didn't understand
Let him know the answer when you have it.
Sometimes he makes kindful terrible mistakes, but he's a good person.

on a side note whats all the ways to impact what a graph looks like again?

hello, i alrdy asked this before but i still need help. I need to model/find the f(x) of the shape of the guitar above the x axis. PPL alrdy told me to do largange polynomial. It does not fit the curve accurately as seen in the photo. ive tried other polynomials and diff degrees, none of them fit. SO my next approach is to do piecewise, so i cut up the guitar in the third photo can someone pls tell me what functions would be suitable for each. or give me a new approach or helping hand.
ive been working on this for ages and im starting to lose my shi
are there any constraints on f
you can fit it exactly with a polynomial of degree n - 1 if you have n points
idts?
ok. you have 16 points so you can use a degree 15 polynomial
These are my points (the second table is just more detailed and a bit more accurate)
but the function may be very wonky and do weird things between the points
hold on second pic is wrong
this
so how do i approach this😣
cuz like im thinking of piecewise but im gen tired of this
like to have 4-5 piecewise fuctions
how did you find that degree 4 polynomial in the image
if you are doing some optimization thing you can add a regularization term to try to prevent the polynomial from doing crazy things
i js used a wbsite like this to insert said points
oh
ive tried doing it manually as well and it aint working
ive tried geoalgebra and its awful
ignore my shakey hands but one thing i established w my teavher is that it has to look like this
you can try to find a tool for ridge regression
cant rllt find one for free
but thx ig
<@&286206848099549185> or if someone could pls be kind enough to js find me a funcrion that actually fits cuz im exhausted as f
Performs and visualizes a cubic spline interpolation for a given set of points.
@acoustic flume Has your question been resolved?
I think with a lagrange interpolation
if u see my message above, i did say i did lagrange
and that it is not fitting correctly
or precisely
whatever you did is not lagrange. lagrange fits precisely through your points
it will look awful and is not what you want, but it will fit your points perfectly
this seems promising
https://github.com/maltaisn/svg-equations
can you make an svg file of that curve that you want?
it'll be parametric though, not just y=f(x)
Hoe many degrees you used?
im afraid i dont know how to do that..
I think also this
i mean i can do some searching
ive tried until 5.. and above 6 is started doing like this
ig im doing smth wrong then
But how did You do this lagrange interpolation?
cuz this is how i understood lagrange. just finding the precise x values and cooresponding with y
and these were the x values..
and i inputted these values into the smth like this
i mean this omne didnt accept more points so i used another wbesite and yeah

how do i procceed..
give me a sec
uhm idk how to insert the values..
not letting me change anything
Inside the curly brackets
yupyup give a momentpls
just fyi lagrange interpolation may not give what you want. it will give you a polynomial that goes through all the points exactly. but what happens outside the points is up to the polynomial
you presumably want something that's nearly linear between adjacent points and there's no reason the minimal interpolating polynomial will do that
but ofc it's worth trying it first to see if it works
your photo is from the internet right?
put the image link there
ah.. ill shorter the x values
yes ofc
nah my own pic
ah, you'd need to download inkscape or krita, or some other art program then
try the langrance thing first and ping me if that doesn't work
dyk whats the problem..

Mb lots of points idk
let me pull out my laptop
sorry but based off the pics i sent do u think theres any effective way i can lesson the points
Well with this code that i send to you it's a hardcore solution to your problem xD
let me see
dumb ass ques
does it matter which table i use
table 2 is hardcore estimate and table 1 ig the x values are kinda conrete idk
mvm imma js do tab 1
the code stops the process after some w no output
imma try the other rable myabe..
this makes no sense man
it says error in line 50??
wtf
but why does it say from scipy.intermpolate import cubicspline, isnt that extracting smth from a file
but even if it does work how do i get the f(x) from that
langrance doesnt seem to be working…
have you also tried this thing?
it kinda works, and the thing is i showed this my teacher during school and he said that theres too many piecewise functions
bc the reason im trynna find this f(x) is to use it for volume of revolution andfurther calculus
and yeah its just not working properly as u can see
like he said if i wanna do piecewise functions he’d recommend 5 max.
oh, I don't think my method would work then
ah
can you share that desmos sketch?
I'll try to manually do it and share the method
you have to decide between good fit and easy function
hm i also lessened the points but its acting strange
like this? https://www.desmos.com/calculator/ypt3wbhwpq
ah wait i removed some point
yeah
mb the code is working now look
how do i get f(x) tho..
and thank u i gen appreciate any help at this stage
for the first few points, until the top there, looks like aln(x+b)+cln(x+d)+f works
you should think of a function that have a shape that looks like a part of it, then use desmos's regression
i js realized one of the points was wrong, dont think itll change much btu yeah https://www.desmos.com/calculator/kkeydzjpbk
oh i'm missing a step, make a table only from the points in that part, then use regression

because the lim x->infinity ln(x)/x = 0

How does it relate

then let : ln(x) = y

Hello
I'll help with 9 I guess
😭
Let's look at y=x^2-24 and y=x-12
Who's this
You got this
Yeah u got this
Solving this system of questions means finding all the pairs of x and y that fulfill the equation
Since both x^2-24 and x-12 are equal to y then x^2-24=x-12
We can then solve for values of x
Of which you will probably get 2
Because quadratic
have a blessed one though
sure bud
which one u stuck on
so u got 2 simultaneous equations on question 9
but they both equal to y
so it makes sense that x-12 should equal to x^2-24
then rearrange into a solvable quadratic x^2-x-12=0
either use the quadratic formula or factorise into (x-4)(x+3)
so x= 4 or -3. then, substitute x in and u get the y results
do that for 10 as well

Number 1
I have a quiz on this
Or big test
Since I was sick for it I never got to even learn it
ok
(Like hospital sick)
so number 1 is a parabola
or a quadratic whichever term u prefer
its either like a U or a upside down U correct?
Yea
do u know when U is upright or upside down
I know when the parenthesis are negative it's upwards facing no?
Or is it the other way around?
if its something like x^2, its a U
if its -(x^2), its a reverse u
as u can see, there is a -2 in front of the (x+6)^2
So if it's positive U then if it's negative it's a n
yes
ok now we now know that its an n
how do we draw it
lets start simple by substituting x=0
because we love x=0
Yes
-2(0+6)^2 -4
that gives us -76
since (0,-76) lies on the y axis, we can say that is the y intercept of f(x)
wait im going to draw it real quick
oh okay
let y=0
so -2(x+6)^2 -4=0
does that make sense
i assume it does
if we divide both sides by -2 to get rid of that ugly negative
the -4 is affected but the 0 is not
so we get (x+6)^2 +2=0
which part do u not understand
its mostly how Im supposed to write it
the roots aka the x intercept, is where the graph touches the y axis
the horizontal line where y=0
write it in the general form of a quadratic
ok lemme draw smth for u hold on
okay thank you
ur usual quadratic
u can see the graph pass the horizontal line, known as the y axis twice
oh like on a graph
an example of a quadratic having no roots
Yes
arent we solving for the 2 x intercepts
oh sorry
ty for uploading again i dont have to scroll
Youre welcome
so does it make sense that we treat f(x) as 0
because in order for f(x) to have a root it needs to intersect the y axis, hence called the x intercept
yes
heres a lil trick we can do to make solving this easier
divide both sides by negative 2
So -2(x+6)^2 becomes (x+6)^2
and 0 becomes 0 because well yknow
but keep in mind, the (-4) also gets divided by -2
so -4/-2 =2
we now get (x+6)^2 +2=0
yessir
show me the new equation u have
correct!
YESSIR
yay
now
minus both sides by 2
so we get (x+6)^2=-2
do u notice something odd here?
would u agree that anything squared becomes either 0 or a positive number
yes
cuz negative * negative = positive
so we shouldnt get -2 at all
no value of x should give us a negative number
right?
so there are no roots to the equation
so now what?
so given that the graph is an n shape as we discussed, had a y intercept of -76
just draw the thing freehand
hold on mb
sorry
sorry
oh okay]
we still need to find the turning point
every quadratic has one
have u learnt complete the square yet?
not surew
were on triginometry
so probably
this was from awhile ago
just got released from the hospital around a week ago
Trig is easy though (for now)
good thing the equation completed the square for us
we know that y=-2(x+6)^2 -4
and since its n shaped
it gets to a point where its y value cannot increase any more
then it goes down again
making sense?
not really
for example this graph
can u see that the y value gets to a certain point
then goes back down again
it says sketch the graph so
no clue
refer to question 7
I thought graphs could be infinite
the graph looks like its going up
but it gets less steep
then it goes back down again like a roller coaster ride
so that point is called the maximum
huh
because u cant get a y value higher than that
aka thats the highest the roller coaster can go before they run out of budget
Lwk if we can just do the formula and help me learn how to make the graph
whats lwk
ill send some of the notes
but I dont know if youll understand them
cuz i dont really
and the teacher I had didnt either
for my hospital
i’ll have a lookasee
oh nah...
im cooked
dawg these are all the notes
wait
are these even the right ones
nah i can see u have a good layout
sure
lets expand -2(x+6)^2 -4
into a form of ax^2 +bx +c=0
firstly expand the brackets
u should get -2(x^2 +12x +36) -4
we distributed the two i see
all good dude
but now we have a quadratic in the form we want
lets do -b/2a
its an option
only on discord 
If youre in the US don't
possibly somewhere else not sure how they get payed
in other places
that divides to -6.
no we're just using -b/2a to find the maximum
like how u wrote it down in ur notes
theyre clear enough for the examiner
oh no im sorry
u have to do -b/2a separately
like we have the equation in the form we want
now dont touch it
just take the coefficients a, and b from the equation
to calculate -b/2a
and we have the x coordinate for our maxmimum/vertex which is -6.
u ok so far?
ik this is a lot of info to handle
wait is this better?
im sorry i should rephrase again
thats how the notes are no?
o no dont worry abt the =0 yet
just trying to find H first
and K
H comes first tho
we can set it equal to 0 later in the equation no?
yea?
wait what
we can derive it from somewhere but icbb to do it at this time of hour sorry
lets move on for now
because
if x is any other value
the -2 would affect the square
making it a negative
and the -4 at the end makes it even smaller
wait can u write down where we are now?
making the inside bracket 0
because how can one make H= -6/-4
they go into common factors
but cant be distrubuted
like
they dont go into eachother
no no no h is -6
the x we're finding equals h
now we're gonna find k by subbing in x=-6
then the bracket becomes 0
-2 times 0 is 0, 0-4 is -4
so k = -4
I think we're too worried on explaining it that I'm just getting lost
The Y has no maximum value doesn't matter no?
if u dont get it u cant do questions like these on ur own thats the thing
the maximum value of y is -4, because the maximum value of y is k
and the x coordinate where the maximum value of y is at, is called h
lemme draw the sketch to Q1
Oh okay
something like this
the tip of the roller coaster ride is at (-6,-4) and when it touches the finish line (the x axis) we’re at -76 already
thats the best analogy i can do for graphs
roller coaster rides
😭
i apologize if u still dont get it
-76 is a crazy number
😂
I sorta get it
Sorta don't
But -76 is where the y int hits b
yes
yes
now we need to state the domain and range
domain means the range of x values which are valid
u get me?
which is infinity
because x could be a million a billion trillion or -0.0000001 and u would still get a y value
does that make sense
Yes
now the range is the range of y values which are valid
(-inf,+inf)
yes
we have shown the shape of the graph
the highest y can go is -4, as it is the tippy top of the mountain
but y can go down to infinity as well
so we write the inequality y<-4
or (-inf, -4]
ok i think ur ready to answer domain and range now
those terms are not easy to understand
good job
theyre sorta not easy
just grasping the concept
is a little hard
how do I like draw the range?
@quick wind
u dont
u just state it using an inequality
wait the range is (-inf,+inf)?
