now what do you think is the last thing you need?
you know if a vector in parametric form
(a+b+c)+k(a'+b'+c')
then (a',b',c') is the direction vector of that vector?
yes i do know
you know Direction vector of both vectors that lie on the plane, so their cross product will give bormal vector
yes
so you have everything
im not quite getting it for some reason
try and tell me if you get the answer
so lets say im taking t=0 right?
yes that will give coordinates (x0, y0, z0) of a point on the plane
yes
i got -x+5y+22z-62=0
thats exactly what i got doing my method also lmao
so like just tell me what were the two direction vectors you cross multiplied?
or tell me what (a,b,c) you got
its probably calculation mistake
so you had already got the answer but these little calculation mistakes 
no
damn
what are two vectors you are multiplying
ok so i am cross the two direction vectors of the two vectors we generated right?
(5/2,1/2,4) x (3/2,5/2,1/2)
5/2,1/2,0 it should be

so
i too took 4 first lol but i saw the mistake
(-0.25,1.25,-5.5)?
omg
yea i finally got it
yea that was pretty intuitive
i think its just the 3am is getting to me
lol
probably because i used fixed points and standard way they had used some variables p,q,r then simplified it lol
ok bye

let $a,b,c\in\mathbb{R}$, if $a^4+b^4+c^4=1$ find the minimum of $\frac{a^3}{1-a^8}+\frac{b^3}{1-b^8}+\frac{c^3}{1-c^8}$

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
do you know Lagrange multipliers
@raw jetty Has your question been resolved?
no

you hated geometry and number theory time to add algebra to the list :p
algebra always been my least favorite
NGCA, any other order is wrong
cant see how this helps but you can do
3-a^4+...=2
3+a^4...=4
then add then and use am gm on each part to get 3>=sqrt(1-a^8)+sqrt(1-b^8)+sqrt(1-c^8)
nvm thats obvious
actually i can do it better
First make a substitution and work with one individual part. Like work with only a^4 for example.
sum>=3cbrt((a^3b^3c^3)/((1-a)^8...))
using amgm we get 1/3>=(abc)^4/3
(1/3)^(3/4)>=abc
and using what i did earlier
1>=((1-a^8)...)^1/6
so we multiply that together while adjusting powers and you get a number
(1/3)^(3/4) i think
its an upper bound but i dont think ive proven its a minimum
uhh how did you get the 1>=((1-a^8)...)^1/6 part
3-(a^4...)=2
3+(a^4...)=4
add and average
then amgm
actually the signs switch because we need the 1-a^8 stuff in the denom and 3/4 is a power less than 1
and then multiplying together
doesnt change signs
still think thats just a lower bound tho
because lowest i can get is (9/8)(1/3)^(3/4) by setting a=b=c
Like say a^4 = x, b^4 = y and c^4 = z. Then x+y+z=1. Then only look at the a^3/(1-a^8) = x^(3/4) /(1-x^2) part and prove that it’s always going to be greater than or equal to something in terms of x. Then you can apply the fact that x+y+z = 1 to obtain a minimal value
oh yea i missed this
im going to bed
what did you even do there cause wouldnt addinf them get 3+3=4+2 lol
just dont cancel
im tired
ill think about it again when i wake up
but ive always been bad at ineqs, so no practice is saving me rn
what can you even do to get a lower bound on that?
Use AM-GM. Actually work with a instead of x so we want to get a bound on a^3/(1-a^8) in terms of a^4. Let this quantity be greater than or equal to c * a^4 for c is some constant. Then do some rearrangement, and notice the AM-GM you can apply
if you do am-gm wouldnt the denominator always have that 1- part or no
cause if it has that 1- i dont think it can be in the form c*a^4
Yeah it would but upon rearrangement you have the (1-a^8) * a is less than or equal to 1/c. Also i should’ve mentioned before that c is just a random constant, not the one referring to c = z^4. Those two are different. Then from here you just raise it to the 8th power and try use AM-GM
what rearrangement what
oh
bur c wouldnt be a constant tho wouldnt it
It would be a constant. You just have to try make it a constant by doing what i said before
sorry i still dont really get what yoh mean
NO
check my bio
check my bio too

i cant believe you put combi at top
Wait a min, one of my friends has the same as yours except G and A swapped around
A used to be my top
my best friend is the same as you
Yes, I love combi. Honestly how I did it was how much I liked the area. But still I do better in combi ngl
then functional equations hit.
i do best in FE, todays training was on FE
fakesolved IMO 2023 A4 then i depressed
sry if yap too much off topic stuff
All good. Just we will assume for now that a^3/(1-a^8) ≥ c * a^4 ⇔ 1/(1-a^8) ≥ c * a ⇔ 1/c ≥ a * (1-a^8). Raise both sides to the eighth power and find maximum value of RHS by using AM-GM
how do youe ven get good in FE's
why the eight power specifically?
When raising to the eigth power, then we can use the fact that a^8 + (1-a^8) = 1 in our AM-GM.
1/c^8>=a^8*(1-a^8)^8
like this??
Yeah

smart
wouldnt a^8*(1-a^8) be the GM
How??? I need to know the strat
Yeah
so like 1/c^8>=a^8*(1-a^8)^8<=something or do you want to squeeze the am between 1/c^8 and a^8.... somehow?
whats FE?
functional equation
Actually by AM-GM you determine exactly what the c is. No need to combine the two
Also people who put A before C are doing a crime. Who even puts A before C? That’s despicable. C will always be the winner. At least we all show our appreciation for how great N and G is (and btw A sucks, I hate A a lot). A is seriously not nice at all, jk
what is ngac 😭
get out
the muirhead cult will find you
Nothing, it’s not a thing
okay
Yeah, so we want to change that so we multiply a^8 * (1-a^8)^8 by 8 before applying AM-GM
Whoever joined this cult clearly has no head
look at my status
"muir your head"
No you shall not
Interesting references
I don’t get it, maybe I have no head
Also controversial opinion but I like 2024 IMO P5
with what black magic
No turbo
I feel bad for the china team lmao
Yes, black magic is used. But if you see that we want to use a^8 + (1-a^8) = 1, we need 8 of the a^8 since by AM-GM 8 (1-a^8) are already used
Pls don’t ask me too many questions, this is exactly why I put A at the bottom
Yes turbo. That problem was needed. Turbo is needed
Same
Just edited this message. Should make sense now (the number of brain cells I have decreases during the day)
aaa i still dont understand how
like for AM-GM if one of the terms of GM is unbalanced, then you can duplicate some AM terms to balance it, and it will only mess with the coefficient
but if you try to duplicate GM it messes with the exponent but thats the part we dont want to change
Uh, let’s try from the top, shall we? We want to find the maximum value of a(1-a^8).
This ^8 part is pretty annoying so we raise this to the power of 8 for the exponent of a to match it such that we find the maximum value of a^8 * (1-a^8)^8
Again this looks close to our GM, but we’re not done because this is not AM-GMable by how you said before (the extra (1-a^8) terms). We know that by AM-GM (regardless of how many terms we have), the AM will have 8 of the (1-a^8)’s. To counteract this, we multiply the a^8 by 8 such that the a^8’s cancel out in the sum of our AM. Hence why we multiply 8 to our original expression to get (8a^8)(1-a^8)^8.
Then we see that the number of terms used in our inequality is 1+8 = 9 so we now can use AM-GM with 9 terms to arrive at an answer
I’m so sorry if this isn’t making sense, I’m trying to also derive the motivation behind the solution
We just try to manipulate it into an AM-GM inequality if that makes sense
Correct, you can simplify it more if you like
You’re nearly done now :)))
Numerator can be written as 9 * 3^(1/4)
so original sum>=k*(a^4+b^4+c^4)=3^(9/4)/8?
and its equality is at a=b=c=1/sqrt4 which holds for the a^4+b^4+c^4=1?
I think that’s incorrect. We only found that inequality for one term, you have to sum it with the other two terms
yeah for the term with a its c*a^4 right
c(a^4 + b^4 + c^4) is not the same as c(a^4)
Yeah
summing with the rest and factoring the constant out you get c(a^4+b^4+c^4)
Correct, but you left the c as the same. It should be 3c
Okay good
Yes, correct, but we only found an inequality for k(a^4).
why would it be any diffrent though?
or k(b^4) or k(c^4). You need to add the 3 together. You left it the same though as for one only
Look at the RHS here. It’s the same as k. It should be 3k
Yeah ofc ik that
Okay, so we got that a^3/(1-a^8) ≥ k(a^4). So as well b^3/(1-b^8) ≥ k(b^4) and c^3/(1-c^8) ≥ k(c^4). Adding the 3 inequalities together, we get that S ≥ k(a^4+b^4+c^4) where S is the wanted sum.
uhh i forgot we did some finnicky stuff back then
wait but didnt we define a^3/(1-a^8)>=k*a^4 instead of just k
Oh wait, you’re right
I’m so sorry, mb
Okay so then this is correct
Closed by @raw jetty

No problem. So sorry for confusing you a lot. I’m horrible at algebra
me too
At least we both can get better at it by grinding more problems (I seriously need to work on my proofs)
me too
Also sorry for asking but do you do olympiads? Cause this is definitely a competition problem
Nice
carbonite also is an olympiad (a really good one)
Oh yeah, you said that
I can tell. I need to reach their level of algebra soon
guess their age
They told me. I feel so old. 😭
We need an age limit on olympiads. Because honestly now I see that 9 year olds are taking olympiads like it’s nothing
yuh
like make amc10 actually for 9-10th graders??
you cant just let carbonite take part it ""because amc8 is boring""
ughh i envy him so much
Exactly
They let people who do well in amc8 take amc10. Just please wait until you’re old enough.
Same, I asked if we could switch ages and he said no chance. And worst part is that organisations favour the young people because they have more potential
LMAO
can we switch is crazy doe
Uh that’s how I made it that time. Thank goodness for that
At least I tried
uhh
howd you do in aime
Alright, like 10+
what the fuck does 10+ mean
10 or above out of 15. I’m not revealing my actual score
It’s okay, you have time young one
I’m sure you will make IMO. I can foresee the future
a year flies by man 💔
thats my goal 🙏
Me when time runs at the speed of light while I’m running at a snails speed.
You better make it in. Then I can say that ik someone who made it into imo
im not telling you weather i made it in or not
gimme your full legal name first then maybe ill consider
I’ll never know if you made it in
Um no chance. I never reveal my name on here
The only thing I can say is that IMO is held in my country yet far away from where I live so I’ll never have the chance to go to the IMO, even as a volunteer
isnt you going to the imo subsided by your country
Omg. You better start preparing. Best of luck on the national mo, I’m sure you do well. and btw don’t stress about it, I find that one does best by not stressing
Yeah but it’s too far away for my parents to consider driving all the way there
oh your australian?
Yes
but you participated in amc??
This centre does outside competitions so I did the American amc as well, yes
Anyways I have to go now, but it was nice chatting with you!
you too!

Is this accepted as a "showing"? Or do need to use an example? Thanks
This is sufficient
You could add some words probably
i think that looks good
I'd guess that there is a lot of space because they expect you to write a bit more than 4 random matrices
at least describe what each matrix does
maybe put an arrow for the last matrix as well
but really the answer is to ask your teacher
oh the arrows do that
Could be clearer tho yeah
we aren't the ones grading your test
Yh I'll ask
criss crossing arrows are hard to understand
otherwise it's fine tbh
if i read this as a marker i'd be like
ok this guy knows what's up

this is for an exam without a calculator so i calculated the arithmetic mean to be 6 and geometric mean as √35 so how would i find the difference
find sqrt 35 using differentiation
√36 is 6 but how would i approximate √35 to get an exact value from these answers
its a quick exam i wont have that much time
well then just see how many decimal places the subtraction goes till
the options are a decimal apart each
wdym ?
sqrt 35 will be something like 5.8
and 6- 5.8x
would be 0.08x
so which one is closest
how did u get 0.08x
do you understand?
it's all approximation
it's closer to 0.1
but the options have 0.08

I have a set x & y position and a chain of lines defined by their angle off of the positive y direction and their distance from the endpoint of the previous line.
I also have variance values for the starting position, the angles, and the distances. I would like to generate a shape which approximates all the possible polygon configurations with the given variance values.
This is (relatively) easy to do with an open shape, but when the same method is a applied to a closed shape there are many configurations calculated which do not produce a closed shape.
I attached a sketch of an open shape and it's variance approximation, as well as a closed shape and (what I think) would be the end goal of the variance approximation
In my mind I feel like this is an inverse/forward kinematics problem, but I don't know enough to be sure
isnt this a problem for computer?
It is, but I can't write an algorithm to calculate it without the mathematical solution
Well
is the variance only for angles btw?
Or for distances as well?
For closed shapes, you could just generate the shape until the very last line
and for the very last line, accept only those that lead back to starting point
So like, you have a sequence of angles and distances, and you can perturbate all angles by +-a, and all distances by +-delta, and the goal is to draw the region that will be covered by all possible options?
So what I understand you want to generate an approximate polygon that represent the variance in x,y position, angles, and distances?
Correct
alright
after this, you'd have to recursively delete the ones that didnt lead back to starting point smh
so i think that what we need is given some point, we need to find the area from which we couldve gotten there
that's the bit we will need for the recursion thing
oh
We could just go in 2 different directions
and then get the intersection of the 2 polygons
i think that should work
ill try to draw what i mean
Wait so we're interested only in perturbations that lead to a closed shape?
open shape is easy was said
but yeah
oh okay
I was thinking about some boundary calculation algorithm
so for one point, angle and distance the region would look like this if im not mistaken
section of circular ring
So basically this problem is "finding all parameter values within a given region (in configuration space) that satisfy a system of 2 equations"
2 equations being (1) x coordinate of the end point = x coord of the starting point, (2) same for y
I think that we could just generate the region in the original direction first
then the region in reverse direction
and intersect them
ill have to draw this on paper, as it would took ages otherwise
cant find my phone to take a photo ;-;
okay
The red is our starting point
the red region is everywhere we can get from red
and there is one key thing to notice
if we reverse the direction, we can apply the same procedure to reverse it
i.e. the blue region is the set of all points, which could serve as a starting point to get to point blue
@stark flicker you here?
imma just continue, you can read it later
so now how can we use it
you got your set of directions and angles with variances
so you just start at the starting point and start generating the region as you normally would for open shapes
once you get to the end you stop
now the problem is that there is some extra region, from which we cant get to the endpoint
and we need to find and delete that region
so what we instead do is we find the region, from which we can get to the endpoint
and we do it using this
we reverse the list of directions and distances and also flip all the directions (e.g. add 180° to them)
then we start at the startpoint/endpoint and start making new region
this new region will be the set of all points, from which we can make it to the endpoint
and finally - we take the intersection of the 2 regions we got
so now every point in the region has guarantee that:
- we can get to it from the starting point
- we can get from it to the end point
Oooh, that is actually a very elegant solution
thanks :)
Thanks much, I was sitting here trying to code this in a vacuum for like 3 hours
I'm writing a mapping tool to generate roads and building/property edges from a list of azimuths and distances, and also to calculate single locations based on azimuth triangulation. Similar tools already exist, but none that do exactly what I need, and in particular there aren't any that give a good visualization of instrumentation error

i dont understand how to get from the RREF to this basis
that x_1 - x_3 - 2x_4 is 0 and x_2 - 3x_3 - 4x_4 is 0
and x_2 is 3x_3 + 4x_4
Okay so if I write an arbitrary vector (x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄) but subject to these restraints
Then I can replace x₁ and x₂ with these
So in other words, the vectors look like (x₃ + 2x₄, 3x₃ + 4x₄, x₃, x₄)
Or, (1, 3, 1, 0)x₃ + (2, 4, 0, 1)x₄
Aha these can be the basis vectors
so its just how many of the free variables?
Huh?
What is?
these vectors
Okay I was being informal
why is everyone awake
The set of vectors V, are ones that satisfy the leftmost augmented matrix
Incidentally by nature of Gaussian elimination, they also satisfy the augmented matrix on the right
Hence, V = {(x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄) ∈ ℝ⁴ | (x₁, x₂, x₃, x₄) = (1, 3, 1, 0)x₃ + (2, 4, 0, 1)x₄, for some x₃, x₄ ∈ ℝ}
i just dont understand exactly how we got there or why
Now you need only check that those 2 vectors (1, 3, 1, 0) and (2, 4, 0, 1) are linearly independent from each other
Where did you get lost
Since they definitely span V, if they are LI then it’s a basis of V by definition
ah, so yes it is a fair jump from the final RREF to that basis
if you accept that the basis has dimension 2 (4 - 2 = 2 by rank-nullity)
You don’t even need that theorem
then you could have two free variables u, v for the 1st and 2nd columns
An important thing is that basis is not unique
If you chose to set x₃ and x₄ in terms of x₁ and x₂ you will find a different basis
would it still be valid?
Yes
fucked up
It says to find a basis
It’s not fucked up
That’s just how it goes, bases are not unique
And it’s very useful that they aren’t unique
yeah to get that exact basis, they just set the first column to have coefficient 1 and the last column to have coefficient 0
so if a1 = 1 and a4 = 0, you get 1 * 1 + 0 * u + -1 * v + -2 * 0 = 0
1 - v = 0, or v = 1
so (1, anything, 1, 0)^t would satisfy
but then you also have to check the (0, 1, -3, -4) as well
so (1, x, 1, 0) dot (0, 1, -3, -4) = x - 3 = 0
x = 3
you must get (1, 3, 1, 0)
similarly repeat everything except now the first column has coefficient 2
why r u not sleeping??
ok yeah I better sleep

How can I fix the mistake because there ist (n+1I missing in the denominator but I need to have this solution?
what is "this solution"
I have to show that In+1(b) is equal to -(b+1)^(n+1)*exp(-b)+(n+1)!
Yes
What if you muiltiplied b^(n+1) by (n+1)/(n+1)
Wait no that's dumb
I think you need to multply it by (n+1-k)/(n+1-k)
So that you can include the (n+1)-th into the sum
I mean you simply just included it just like that
But then again hmm
can you just show the whole problem and where you got I_n(b) from

Looks pretty unbusy
no sir it is yours please ask away
Okay, thank you very much.
My question is about arithmetic, well I'm more looking for advice and suggestions.
I am an arithmetic student, and I want to know what advice or suggestions you can give me.
I study in this order:
-
Natural numbers
-
Ordinal numbers
-
Even/Odd numbers
-
Multiples and divisors
-
Prime and composite numbers
-
Fractions
-
Decimals
-
Integers
-
Rational numbers
Is this order okay, or is there anything else I should add?
what are you looking for?
oh, about the order
IDK I think you could/should jump around as you are comfortable a lot of these topics are going to overlap and it really depends on what material about them you cover
I study arithmetic, basic mathematics :b
its not really clear what youre lookin for I guess.
The collection of topics seems fine.

You wanna write XZ in the form of λ(6b-2a) = λXY to show they are colinear. So they factored a 3/2.
3/2 • 6 = 9 and 3/2 • (-2) = -3

this is the answer
i got as far as 1/2(4a-b)
but i couldnt understand how to get AC
why is OC labelled 3/4 and 1/4
i thought it would be 3/7 and 4/7
slight mistake
when ratio is 3:4 it means 3/7 not 3/4
so OA would be 3/7 and OC would be 4/7
This is not correct.
im lost....
mb bad just woke up brain not braining
If OA:AC = 3:4 , then it would be 3/7 and 4/7.
But we have OA:OC = 3:4 , where OC is the total length, so OA is 3/4 of OC.
since there 2 ratios
make a ratio constant to keep it from getting messy
what he did is correct
how do u know to split it into 4 tho 😭
what he did was write the ratio as fractions
OA/OC=3/4
then he sent OC to other side

this is probably the simplest question on the planet but i'm just not sure what to do to start finding the equivalent exponential function (these are just optional homework questions)
im most likely just overthinking it because I tend to do that and overlook the more simple ways of answering questions
Is this graded
Sure
wai
\log btw
sorry, just looked at the question again and remembered logarithms exist which is probably the whole point of the question, i'll try it on my own for a minute to see if i can do it
got it!! just used the base change formula, i was definitely just overthinking it for no reason
thanks for the help though!!🫶

no

<@&286206848099549185>
The major axis is x=3
I think the problem is that you've computed the foci as if the ellipse had a horizontal major axis 
your ellipse has a vertical major axis though
so the foci are at (h, k +- c), not (h +- c, k)
after checking on Desmos, that does seem to be the error
wait so its verticle not horizantle?
okay yeah got it then
ok thank you!!

how does this proof look?
I'm feeling a little uneasy about it 
i feel like something looks weird
||a + bi|| = a^2 + b^2?
oh that's a norm
shouldn't there be a sqrt
and it's not good I think
also, lie groups dont have norms on them?
I think they meant the modulus
oops, yes
but it won't change the fact that it's equal to 1
where do the issues... Lie? 
i feel like i would've rather used 𝜑 to denote S^1
it looks like S^1 is 2 dimensional with the a and b
but really if you parametrise it in polar coords it's just 1 dimensional
I'm treating S^1 as a subset of C
what's U(1)?
unitary 1x1 matrices
mhm!
yeah i mean you've convinced me that they're lie group isomorphic
although my proof for SO(2) and S^1 just sends (cos 𝜑, sin 𝜑) to (cos 𝜑, -sin 𝜑; sin 𝜑, cos 𝜑)
but that works too
all three?
I'm scared of angles 
ya
I really ought to get more accustomed to that perspective though
okay, awesome 
thank you so much for your time frosst
I really appreciate it

idk how to do this
i think maybe i need to use the log rules
oh wait yea
i can do log(m-2/m)
log(m-2/m) = 2log(1/n)
okay stuck here
wait cant you do now "(m-2/m) = log(1/n)"?
brackets please
like remove the log on the left and remove 1 log on the right
m-2/m is not the same as (m-2)/m
hi
no
ok im out dont wanna confuse anyone. 😭
use another log law on the other side
oh yeah hold up i know one
its the exponent one
log(m-2/m) = log((1/n)^2)
is this what you meant?
now in this situation am i able to 'cancel out' the logs
ohhh
m-2/m = (1/n)^2
i need to write m in terms of n
hmm
is multiplying everything by m right or nah
thats good
this is the same type of equation as m-2=17m would be
ohh ok
then hmm
i want to subtract m from both sides
2 = m((1/n)^2) - m
oh wait
that might not be the right move
it is
its exactly the move you would do here
ohhh yes
i see what you were trying to say now
now the issue is
if i divide (1/n)^2
then i will have m-m
which isnt good
yes
here you would divide both sides by 17-1
yes
now i need to simplify the left side
hmm
oh wait
1/n^2
that what it can just become
the (1/n)^2
yes
2/(1/n^2-1)
is this still not fully simplified?
if its not now i need help
i cant think of ANYTHING else
you can multiply top and bottom by n^2
or you can combine the fractions in the bottom and then simplify the double fraction you get
when you say this do you mean like
it becomes
2n^2/1-1
or did i mess up
cuz nothing can be divided by 0
💔
you messed up
yea i understand
you have to multiply the entire bottom by n^2
ohhhh
2n^2/(1-n^2)
yes
we multiply the entire fraction by n^2/n^2
aka we multiply it by 1
so we dont change its value
yes
thanks a bunch
yw
oh wow
this was an excellence question
that means it had like a lot of points

Can someone help me to solve this?
a balloon is rising uniformly with a velocity of 10 fps, when a stone is dropped from it. The stone then reaches the ground in 3 sec, Find the height of the balloon when the stone hits the ground?
I’m getiing 114 ft
fps?
I feel like there should be more context
like you need to find the initial height of the rock's freefall
it's a mechanics problem
O
I think you should be able to assume g = 10
but you also need to account for the balloon rising while the rock is falling
gravitational acceleration = -10 m/s^2
Nvm then imma head out
g = 32.2 ft/s^2 because burger units
this came from the kinematic equation
can you write down the equation in full before you plugged any numbers into it
baloon go up , gravity pull baloon down
vector issue
you forgot to consider the opposite direction
you did not
i take it back
aight lol
ok right and s is displacement
yes
ok so this is correct for the rock's starting height.
but again,
the balloon still rises after letting go of the rock.
right
for 3 seconds, it keeps rising at 10 ft/s past that starting height.
so 30 ft
yes, add another 30 feet to it

I need help caculate the lenght of this graph.
Aa förstår formeln men fastnade sen på BC längden. Jag kan visa
Man ska bara använda L formeln. Men får inte till BC delen😭
Så om jag förstår rätt så har du lyckats hitta vad f’(x) ska vara för AB och CD för att sedan använda det med L formeln?
Har ej gjort CD delen än eftersom jag fastnade på BC.
Men har försökt på flera sätt men tror att de är vinkeln som man ska räkna ut som förstör det. Har försökt att ex tänka Anta B(0.10) och C(3,10) och får begynnelsevillkor g(0)=10 g(3)=10 och xsym blir 1.5 och då g’(1.5)=0. Och anta g(x)=ax^2+bx+c
Mhm
Hur gjorde du för AB? Den skulle hjälpa!
Det är så du kan få reda på vad BC måste vara
Ty, vi vet att att dem (parablerna) delar samma lutning vid punkten B
@lone plaza
Okej, hur ska man tänka då?
Kan ta fram hur jag gjorde på AB brb
Kalla parabeln för AB, för f(x)
Dvs. y = f(x) beskriver parabeln AB
Grymt!
Det är BC jag ej fattar😭
Kalle nu parabeln för BC, för g(x)
Är du min matte lärare irl🤨
Vad vet vi händer vid punkten B för bägge f(x) och g(x)?
?
Skämt 😭
Okej :3 lol
I’m completely lost😭 har problemet med vinkeln liksom.
Mhm
Dem delar lutning där
Det ger dig ett extra villkor för g(x)
Du vet ni vad lutningen är i B
g’(x) är ju på formen ax + b
Du vet också nu att f’(8) = g’(8)
Jag skriver ner det, ge mig några minuter!
Vill dock inte ge ut svaren direkt; så fundera gärna eller fråga, men jag kan ge en skiss på hur vi ska tänka
Är du min matte lärare reveal urselfffff😭👆
Okej ska försöka😔
Men kan du iallafall säger om de är rätt att man ska förskjuta grafen så punkten B blir (0,10)
Och C(3,10)
Det är rätt!
Men tycker att du kan ha kvar så som det var innan
Dvs. Att g(8) =10
Och g(11) =10
Men då kan jag väll inte använda g(0)=10? För att få ut C. Tänkte så eftersom lättare ett få ut c variabeln?
c konstanten kommer ju faktiskt inte bidra till något då vi endast behöver g’(x); men jag ifall det känns lättare gör så
Det kommer att bli samma ändå
Så det har du rätt i att göra
Men måste man inte veta C för att kunna räkna ut de andra variablerna. Förstår att vi deriverar försvinner c. Men om vi ska använda beygennelsevillkoren liksom.
Tycker att din lösning blev bättre, kanske inte behöver skissa min lösningside då det blir onödigt komplicerat
Mhm, jag tror det kan gå att undvika
Men gör så som du tänkte!
Men vi behöver dock ett begynnelse villkor för g’(x)
Mhm, vi kan få reda på det mha av f’(x)
Jag tänkte g’(1,5)=0 eller om vi ej har förskjutitgrafen blir de g’(9,5)=0
Det låter bra det
Så vilka begynnelsevillkor ska man använde för för den förskjutna g(0)=10, g(3)=10, g’(1,5)=0 eller icke förskjutna g(8)=10, g(11)=10, g’(9,5)=0
För bägge så räcker dem på det sättet du tänkte lösa det!
Eftersom du har tre ekvationer och tre obekanta
Okej vilken ☠️
Säg att du kör med den förskjutna
Veckla ut vad allt betyder, du har ju villkoren som du skrev
Det är ekvationer
Som du skrev är ju g(x) på formen ax^2 + bx + c, mhm?
Fick fram från derivata 3a=-b och vanliga med g(x) fick jag 9a+3b=0
Använt g(3) och g’(1.5)
Har redan använt alla 3 villkor
Okej, ser du hur man löser ut a och b från det du skrev ovan?
Ajdå
Bro wanna watch me suffer 😭
Första gången jag gör en sån här uppgift därför jag är lite efterbliven
Mhm det är okej
I’m not serious😭😭
Vet man inte att symmetri linjen är kopplad till koefficienterna av andra gradaren?
Typ att b/2 är precis symmetri linjen
Vänta jo!
Det är -b/2
Som ju ska vara symmetri linjen
Vet du om detta också?
Använde xsym för att lutningen är 0 där
Nop, men det kanske blir fel i beräkningen då vi har förskjutit. För riktiga xsym på uppgift bilden kommer jue vara på 9,5
Det okej, vi vill ju egentligen bara beräkna längden av parabeln
Då spelar det ju inte roll vart vi förskjuter den!
Okej men hur ska ja tänka
What's this language 🥲?
Bro spying on us😔
Låt mig skissa
In my most vulnerable moment aswell😔
Aslan is a good protector, jag vet
U guys prob making fun of meh🥲
Heyy I'm trying to help not spy 😑
I’m trying learn this. It’s my first time with this kind of problem.
Aslan is a pookie bear
and in his eyes there is big hope in you!
Is this chemistry in maths?🤔
Nuh just need calculate the lenght of the graph. And I’m stuck on calculating the lenght on BC part.
I meant it as a joke
looks like a trigonometric function
How so?
Actually, it's more a polynomial, now looking at it
I’m trying my best to learn a new concept instead getting violated 😔
So you would need some sort of interpolation with points A, B, C and D
Or are you given the curve?
If this could be translated, i wouldn't be so lost
Två sätt att tänka
Du vet ju att g’(0) = -g’(3) av symmetri
We assumed on first part AB
Oh then it's plain and simple
Också uh strunta i det jag skrev senare senare om -b/2
Okej, men jag hade gjort så här. Hur ska man förutsätta ja försökte lösa ut a och be med ekvationerna 9a+3b=0 och 3a=-b men de tar bara ut varandra.
Mhm, använda att g’(0) måste vara lika med -g’(3)
Ser du varför?
Det borde ge ett extra krav
Varför just -
Uhh guys it's not so tough
8,10 and 11,10 are roots of the quadratic equations
Ax^2+bx+c=0
Okej, strunta i det
Det verkar inte hjälpa
Det är nog bäst om vi går tillbaka till min gamla strategi
Uhh well I think u guys got it so see ya
Är det okej om vi gör det?
Ok
Ditt extra krav på g(x) är nämligen f(x)
Titta på denna bilden
Håller du med om vad som pågår vid B?
Aa
f’(8) ska ja beräkna de med värdena jag fick på A och B i börja uppgiften
Dock är detta för icke förskutnja g
Japp!
Det blir -4,824
Okej bra, då borde g’(8) vara lika med det, eller då g’(0) om du gillar den förskjutna
Okej om vi kör icke förskjutna. g’(8)=-4,824 g(8)=10 g(11)=10
Mhm
Min fråga dock blir de inte problem med C? Isåfall men förstår vad du menar med lutningen nu iallafall.
Du behöver ju egentligen inget med C att göra med senare när du använder L formeln, då du endast vill veta g’(x)
Okej ska prova
Så egentligen är g’(8) = -4.824 och g’(9.5) = 0 tillräckligt
Kan man inte förresten (säger ej att vi behöver använde de nu) men skulle man också kunna tänka att g’(11)=4,824
Dvs g’(8) och detta?
Alltså att de är samma lutning i c som B fast positivt (undrar bara generellt
Ja precis
Försökte säga detta förut, här
Men det verkade inte hjälpa för att lösa problemet
Ger ingen ny information eller krav på g
Men ja, förlåt att det tog sin tid
Hoppas detta har hjälpt
Iallafall har använt begynnelsevillkoren för g’(x) och kommit fram till 19a+b=0 och 16a+b=-4,824 tror du jag kommer behöva använda resten av g(x) begynnelse villkoren
Inte enligt mig! Då du endast kommer att använda g’(x) i beräkningen av L
Men g’(x) har ju bara två obekanta
Okej ska försökte beräkna nu. Skriver när ja är klar
Fick 8.1m
Det är väll rimligt😭👆
För AB 22.1M
m”
Ja det verkar rimligt
Okej bara CD kvar om du inte orkar behöver du inte hjälpa med de också
Det är okej, den verkar ju lik AB så jag tror du klarar det galant!
Okej men om du orkar skulle du kunna rita en bild sen så ja kan på inspiration av hur ja ska rita tydligt sen när ja ska visa min lösningen för läraren. Ska börja lösa uppgiften nu dock.
