Jag antar att vi inte har fått givet vart D’s x k koordinat är?
Har kallat den ”b”
Dvs. D = (b, 35)
what language are you guys speaking
Kanske borde ha kallat den något annat än b lol
Swedish
Har kommit fram till villkoren h(11)=10, h(Dx)=35, h’(Dx)=0 h’(11)=4,824
Precis!
Vi kommer behöva räkna ut Dx?
Ja
aslan is the lion in the movi right
Yeah
i have seen all three of the movi
Awesome!
the movies were good
Det blir då en liggande tanget. Men hur ska ja ta delta x om jag ej vet vart slutet är 😭
Yes
well sorry Interrupting
Det gäller att skriva om steg för steg vad vi vet
in your study
Aa kom fram till det. Men hur kan du vara anta direkt vad c är får man göra så? Förstår att c brukar typ vara start värde för y
Jag antar inget om c
Inga problem
Fyyy vad jobbigt 😭
Tror du att man kanske ska tänka att 1 och 3 hör ihop till ett ekvation system och 2 och 4 till ett annat
Dx=-b/2a tror du man ska använda de
Jo precis!
Hoppas miniräknaren överlever
Varför skrev du 25 istället för 35
35 - 10 =25

I have a question im doing discrete maths now and i was wondering if i can say that if a|k and b|k’ then ab|kk’??
a|k means that k=a*d for some integer d
b|k' means that k' = b*n for some integer n
what does that say about k*k' ?
Kk’ has a factor of ab
It means its divisible by it
But the problem is that some correction mentioned that it only holds if a n b are coprime and I don’t get why is that so
Its in french so..
But the goal of the ex is to prove that for p>3 where p is a prome number p^2 -1 is divible by 24
the math part is the same
One sec
I dont have the full solution but this is my main idea
In the solution they said that to be able to say 6|p(p-1)(p+1) u must mention that gcd(2,3)=1
ok
so you didnt use what you wrote above
you wanted a|k and b|k => ab|k
and that indeed only works if a and b are coprime
for example 2|10 and 2|10 but not 4|10
Aaa yea k is the same
Ah i see thanks
Is this the reciprocal of gauss’s lemma ??

can anyone
Yk to draw FBD ?
Then draw it first
coz how am i meant to know if the box is on top of the boy
The boy is on top of the box 😭
A boy sits *
Let's not assume that the boy is spiderman, and the box is glued on top
NP
i know there is an equal and opposite force
Which part are we solving
A b or c ?
It's written there
Ok so what's your issue
Yk right gravity is acting downwards
yea
And the lift is moving upwards
yes
So net, acceleration downwards is g-2
yes
That's the normal force exerted right
yes
Therefore (g-2)*weight of boy
i see but could u pls draw it on the diagram
i can zoom into the pic in the right
Yeah that's what you need to do
Like what to draw man !
g acting downwards
There's an upward acceleration
Therefore normal will be (g-2)*m
okay one sec lemme just go over everything i got the main idea
Yeahhh !
i get it now thank u

Which way an I supposed to do this my answers seem wrong on both, I don't know what I'm missing
@earnest geode Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
let me see
the first way u did it is how id start it
and the 5/x^2 = y seems right
they are the same exept in one of tyhem i multiplied by the cost
the base area is 2x^2 thats right
it wants the least expensive
so i feel like you might have to form an equation for cost and differentiate
the side areas would be 6xy right
ye
i did
and get 2x^2 +6/x
typo
30/x
so the cost is 10 for the base area
so 10(2x^2) = 20x^2
and the cost of the side areas is 6
so 6(30/x)
oh i multiply the cost after i dirive it?
so you get that the cost, C = 20x^2 + 180/x
no
now you differentiate the cost
dC/dx = 40x - 180/x^2
the derivative = 0 at the minimum point right
so you get 40x=180/x^2
i accidentally put 20x=180/x^2
nvm
remember it wants the cost
so when you w at the minimum point you can plug it back into the equation you had for cost

im confused as to why this is being marked wrong
$10 says it's an arithmetic error 
im doing the integral from 0-1, 0-1/2+y of 2x/3 + 4y/3 dxdy
WA says its 5/6 and thats still marked wrong 😭
wait i didnt type it correctly
41/36
which is what i got originally
you're supposed to integrate over only the blue region but you integrated over the blue plus the red
with the bounds you stated
i mean 41/36 cannot possibly be correct for a probability
better would have been to compute the complement tbh
instead of trying to integrate over that mildly complicated region
how do i do that? i have no idea what that means i wasnt taught how to
@crude parrot Has your question been resolved?
Complement = (the cases out of all the possible cases, which you do not want)/(total possible cases)
(For probability).
how do i apply that to this problem though?
is the total possible cases 36?

Okay so for the first one, we have a double integral from y = 0 to y = 1 and x = 1/2 to x = 1
You're fine with that right?
yeah i got that one right on the first try
Do you understand what you're doing with that one, though? It's possible to follow a procedure and get the right answer without understanding what you're doing sometimes
yeah i just replaced 0 with 1/2 for the bounds, and i did the integral from 1/2-2, 0-1 of f(xy) dydx
either order works since the bounds are all constant
1/2-2?
sorry 1/2-1
that dashed line is 1/2 + y right?
Yes
We want to integrate over the blue region this time
If you just integrate up to 1/2 + y, then you're integrating over the red region as well
so do i have to set up two different integrals? one for the full thing and one to subtract that red part?
There are various ways to do that. I'll go through 2 ways and then we can check our answer as well
Well you could do it that way if you wanted to
i was just thinking of that way because of ap calc, from the washer method or whichever method it was called
I was going to integrate from [y = 0 to y = 1/2, x = 0 to x = 1/2 + y] and then from [y = 1/2 to y = 1, x = 0 to x = 1]
Does it make sense why I'm doing that?
Yes
okay that makes sense
!occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
the way i was saying i think i could do y from 0 to 1, and x from 0 to 1/2 + y, and subtract y from 1/2 to 1, x from 1 to 1/2 + y?
sorry i got a text from my cousin halfway through typing this i dont mean to make you wait😭
Yep you could that if you wanted
We're doing 2 integrals either way so it doesn't matter
Actually, I'd slightly prefer my way since we only have to deal with x = 1/2 + y once
But it's not a big deal either way
was it way off or close
Close
lemme put my version into WA to check rq
oh i think i just messed up my algebra somewhere
it gave me 65/72
yeah i got 11/72 for my second integral but it should be 17/72
which makes sense 17-11 = 71-65
Yeah I got 65/72
My first integral is 17/72 and my second integral is 48/72
yeah my first was 41/36 and my second one was 17/72 (or at least it shouldve been i just did something wrong)
-> 17/72
And everyone is happy yay
always some stupid algebraic thing haha
integration is impeccable but i cant simplify fractions 💀
Maybe you get complacent at that point
Let's do the other method now
P(A) = 1 - P(Not(A))
So we can integrate over the region we don't want and subtract it
What are the bounds of that integral?
is that what i did or is that different
y from 1/2 to 1, x from 1 to 1/2 + y? if thats the region youre talking about
It's different
That's not it
That's what you did last time
We want the region that doesn't satisfy our condition
So the entire region is y = 0 to y = 1, x = 0 to x = 1, right?
if we arent bounding it by 1/2+y yeah
oh i see you kinda folded the red region over
?
If we look at the definition of the function
It's defined between x = 0 and x = 1, and y = 0 and y = 1
yeah its defined on [0,1] x [0,1]
What's the integral of the function over that region?
so is that 1 - the integral of the red region?
wait no integral y 0 to 1/2, and x 1/2 + y to 1
Yes!
i see, just that white triangle space that the blue square doesnt cover
Mmhmm!
that makes sense
Let's just Wolfram that since I'm happy you can do the integration
,w 2/3 ∫[0,1/2] ∫[1/2 + y,1] (x + 2y) dx dy
🥳
thank you so much this makes so much more sense now lmao
That's what people were talking about with the "complement" thing earlier
yeah i didnt understand that because i was never taught that way 😭
The complement is Not(A)
i actually already took the final for this class, we never learned this part but it was on our homework
Well... I wouldn't say it's a method in itself
It's just combining different aspects of probability
right but i mean we never did stuff that involved separate integrals
like taking that and applying it to probability
P(A) = 1 - P(Not(A)) always, so it applies to density functions too
And if the probability is equal to an integral, then you can use the usual integral techniques to solve it
As we've seen here, you can look at the same region in various ways
yeah that makes sense
e.g. a larger region - the extra bit, or breaking it into smaller simpler regions
All good now?
yes thank you so much
haha real, i teach math part time (obviously not this level) and i love that "aha" moment students have
I think you can close now

@naive sorrel Has your question been resolved?
Looks like a stars and bars problem
i htink so too but im not sure how to set it up
The -1 -2 etc aren't important
why not
Because you can just solve the version of the problem without them and then add 1 to O2, 2 to O3, etc
WOWWA
i was wondering about this as a simpler case anyways
but i dont even know how to solve this one
like i dont see a clear bijection to the stars and bars scenario
Think of having m-1 stars which are increments by 1
and then you have n-1 bars which are your N_1 N_2 etc
so if there are two stars between N_3 and N_4 it means N_4 = N_3 + 2
would it instead be N_3 = N_4 + 2?
since the sequence is weakly decreasing

First im going to get rid of some zeros and say the business man has 420, gets a total income of 26, and savings gets 2 less than the other two combined
Since savings gets two less than the other two investments and you know all 3 have to add to 26, the only two numbers that add to 26 with one being two less than the other are 14 and 12
Now that you know 12 is coming from savings and 14 is coming from the other 2, do you have an idea on how to work from there?

Hi i need help on matrix problem (from my highschool homework)
i will really love to have the step shown so i can study it
You asked the same question in two channels
but either way. What have you tried so far?
does chat gpt count i cant do any math.....
I would probably not count chatgpt
then i sadly have not tried anything
My first thought here is to use a system of equations, especially since we are looking to use matrices
yea the teacher spesificly ask to use matrices
You know that the money you put in savings (s) + time deposits (t) + bonds (b) will equal 420,000,000
That can be our first equation
your talking is way to advance for me
Sorry I can try to simplify
First thing. You are going to put all your money into either stocks, bonds, or time deposits correct?
ill try that

Hi! Answer to this is supposed to simplify to 0 after combining trig functions, seeing it’s even, and u-subbing 1/u. Having trouble seeing how it evaluates to 0
(I u-subbed 1/u in second line, just didn’t change variable to u)
1/x is odd
Probably something about the sine as well
Something something odd function integral = 0
That’s my guess
It’s even because it’s a product of two odd functions
the sin part can be written as sin((x^2-2024)/x) which is also odd
so the whole thing is even
Ugh
I wish that was it 😭
Answer key just says
“substituting x->1/x eventually leads to 0”
Do the sub
like bruh
Oh you did
@knotty yew Has your question been resolved?
x - 2024/x is almost odd
Try u = sqrt(2024)/x and see if you can get sin(odd function) in the integrand

3/2
Oh yes
so if we wanted to make the largest possible volume of the mixture, which bottle would we use up first -- the weak stuff or the strong stuff?

How to do?
it's doable, just kinda need to motivate the solution... hmm
do you know power of a point? try applying it
no...
then try to create some congruent right triangles to exploit the length information you know
how?
In Euclidean geometry, the intersecting secants theorem or just secant theorem describes the relation of line segments created by two intersecting secants and the associated circle.
For two lines AD and BC that intersect each other at P and for which A, B, C, D all lie on the same circle, the following equation holds:
...
do you know this?
no... my school only teaches us some common theorem:
angle at center twice angle at circumference
angle in semi circle is 90
angle in the same segment are equal
line from center perpendicular to chord bisects chord
line joining center to mid-pt of chord perpendicular to chord
arcs proportional to angle at center / circumference
equal arcs, equal chord and vice versa
opposite angle in cyclic quadlateral
equal chords, equidistant from center
chords equdisant from center are equal
Only these, and the question I asked is the exam question
but idk how to do
equidistant from center?
yeah, draw those lines in
ok
no...?
do you have anything about tangency?
oh wait
yeah we have enough power to get the answer
oh
now that we drawn the lines, can we mark out any angles?
umm I'm not sure
oh the right angle
yeah
great
oh

In this question I was told that we should not take limits to parts of the expression. But in the question (approach 2) we multiply and divide by x to remove the tanx term. (This reduction of sinx or tanx by multiplying and dividing by x is done in a lot of limit questions) -> Which shows that we are applying limit to a part of the expression only (as applying the limit to the whole expression may result in an inderminate form).
That's because in the second example x^2*(tanx/x) is of the form f * g where the limits can be evaluated individually (given they exist).
In the first example however, you have applied the limit only to the numerator in a f/g form, hence resulting in the limit becoming infinity- this partial insertion of limits isn't allowed since if we consider f* 1/g, the limit of 1/g (which is 1/x) does not exist (in a finite form) at x=0.
@median flame Has your question been resolved?
I see. So in general, tanx or sinx can be multipled and divided by x to remove the term, although the expression may not be determinate yet and would still need solving?
Provided that the limit (trig function)/x exists at that particular x (which it usually does), yes

Just to be clear, while applying lhopitals you did differentiate a^x as a^x * lna correct?
(Btw I'm assuming the answer you got by the second approach is the correct one, i haven't checked it).
yeah, the second approach is correct
I think I have the problem in differentiating, lemme send a photo
,rotate
Yeah this differentiation is incorrect
You need to individually differentiate both the num and the den. Also, the differentiation of (a^x-1)/x is not lna
what I did was the I took the lim(x -> 0) (a^x - 1)/a = lna, which becomes a constant, whose differentiation becomes 0
Try applying the quotient rule and deriving it yourself
Oh you took the limit not the differentiation
this is the part which I think is the problem, but I don't understand what is it
Well it's the same problem again then isn't it, you evaluated just the limit of f from f*1/g
Partial limit evaluation will not give you correct answers
but what I don't get is why this problem doesn't happen in tanx/x or sinx/x, why are we able to seperate them, but not this?
im failing math and a single math problem could help me pass
but i have no ideea how to solve it
and the translation in english is kinda ass
!occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
I get that this is very subtle, pardon me for going in circles
Because then you evaluate the limit of tanx/x as a whole not just the limit of tan x from tanx * 1/x
Is that understandable
yeah, now that you mention tanx/x and tanx*(1/x) I am kinda starting to get this
If you have some other example problems i can help you understand with those
basically here we try to eval the numerator, and get something finite (0) but the problem lies with 1/x which is going to infinite?
Yep
You can only evaluate lim f*g as lim f * lim g if the limits of both those functions exist and are finite
and if we had some other expression f(x) instead of 1/x which we could solve further, we would have done that, but not here since we get infinite * 0 indeterminate form?
Yep
finally this makes sense.
Pog

For ii), is the answer e-1
@hot vale Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
e-1 makes no sense because e-1>1 yet the region is a subset of the unit square
oh true
@rustic coral is this working out correct?
i think i did the algebra wrong then
lol i keep getting e-1
ik its wrong though
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
@rustic coral is this the answer
i realised the integral of lnx is not 1/x, the derivative is lol
thats why i kept getting the e-1
,w (integral of e^(x-1) from 0 to 1)-(integral of (1+ln x) from 1/e to 1)

Okay so can you tell what kind of transformations have happened here?
like ik for the first one, there is a vertical reflection and then vertical translation since the horizontal asymptote is moved 6 units up
but how do i tell if theres vertical dilation, horizontal dilation or horizontal shift
-2^x+6
Yeah so the way you can tell that here is because we have notches on the axes we can read off some points our function passes through
For exponentials a nice fact is that horizontal shifts are the same thing as vertical dillations
So you're looking at something like f(x)=6-a2^{bx}
and to work out the values of a and b you can just plug in points on the graph
so like id have to equations and i do substitution or something?
so i can either do -2^b(x-c) + 6 or -a2^bx + 6
yeah
but i think the a one is easier, so does that mean u cant have a vertical dilation and a horizontal shift together?
is there a reason why?
[b2^{a(x-c)}=b2^{ax-ac}=2^{-ac}b2^{ax}]
lance
That 2^{-ac} is a constant
so its like we've secretly just vertically dilated by b*2^{-ac} the whole time
nw!
fuck ur math
quick question
could there be multiple answers for these types of questions
i did a and got the right answer, and looked at the answer for b but it has a horizontal translation
is it the same if i write the horizontal translation in terms of a vertical dilation
Yeah there can be multiple correct answers
A good way to check your work is to open up something like desmos and graph your equation and see if it looks the same
yea thats true lemme try part b real quick
@heavy viper Has your question been resolved?
is there a way to see if theres a better time to use the horizontal translation vs the vertical dilation
i tried doing it with the dilation but im getting a different answer
Do they both give you the same graph?
Not really, I personally just use the dilation factor approach since it’s usually easier on the algebra
Check the points you plugged in
and i used points (-4,0) and (-6,4)
Does the graph of the equation in the book pass through those points?
the book answer passes through (-6,6)
but the graph they gave doesnt look like that
but my answer doesnt pass through (-6,4) as well so i think i did something wrong too 😅
yes part b
Ah yeah then your algebra must’ve been a bit off
i just redid it but now my equation matches the answer in the book, even though both of them dont pass through -6, 4 and i used -6, 4 as a point 😭
Send your working
ok 1 sec
This is what I did
I used -4,0 as a point then once I got a=(2)^1-4b I plugged it into the next equation
And got b= 1 ( I used -6,4) for that one
And b=1 gives me a= 1/8
Sorry if I'm reading this right you have
\begin{align*} 6&=2^{1+2b} \
6&=2^1+2^{2b}
\end{align*}
lance
yeah exactly
Oh so 3= 2^2b?
I haven't been taught how to do questions where u can't make the bases the same my teacher said we can't use logs
U can't make the bases the same in this case right ?
Yeah you can't
so I'm assuming this question had a typo in it
and it was meant to pass through (-6,6)
I think if I were to get a question like this, I would just stop here
Yea I think they just graphed it wrong
If you get a question like this you raise you hand and ask your teacher if they made a mistake :p
Alr but all my steps were correct up until that right ?
Yea lol
Yeah excluding that mistake about + instead of times I didn't see anything
you too :)

How the hell do I stop being so superficial? I make mistakes on almost any problem I solve, whether its just from just copying the task from my pc to paper, missing minuses/numbers... HOW, PLEASE
paying attention to what you're doing, probably.
make a habit of doing things slowly.
and one thing at a time.
maybe you could show us some of your rushed/error-filled work
for more precise diagnosis
Guys, I need help identifying the set of functions.
go to #help-4
I'm good, I just rush too much probably
but ignored the problem
until now
thanks guys ❤️

what's the difference between a function that is lipschitz, and a function that is continuous + every secant has finite slope
or do i need it to say the set of all slopes of secants is bounded
then the set of all slopes of all secants will have a maximum, and i can set L to be that for the lipschitz number
most secants have finite slope...
oh true
i guess the lipschitz is just saying this maximum exists
or minimum same thing
The bounded part is important. Namely, e^x is not lipschitz
i think neither is like x^2 then
Oh yeah true. Tough condition
i suppose it says something about uniform boundedness
it looks kinda like uniform convergence but for slopes and not really convergence
so just the uniform part 
interesting so ln(x) is lipschitz on [a, inf) for a > 0
so the function (can) go to infinity, it's just that the slope can't
x is lipschitz
so if f is differentiable then you just need f' to be bounded
if f is between differentiable and continuous then it's cringe

Unable to visualize. Can someone help?
the questions are divided into three types:
- known, correct answer
- guessed, correct answer
- guessed, wrong answer
(there would also be "known, wrong answer" but we assume that doesn't exist)
right
of all the correctly answered questions, 1/6 are guessed
and of all the guessed questions, half are correct and half are wrong
ok yes
this means that known : guessed-correct = 5:1
and this means guessed-correct : guessed-wrong = 1:1
so this kinda directly gives you that the ratio of questions by category is 5:1:1
no

Translation : Find the dimension, equations and a base of the subspace
I don't seem to get how to find whats being asked
could you give some context, in what chapter of your math book is this?
this is definitely a linalg book.
it looks you need to create a matrix
it is linalg
yes, indeed, i understand that. I tried making a matrix then using gauss for the range of the matrix, but im unsure wether the range is the same as dimension
try reducing the matrix to a row echelon form
so
yes, by gauss i mean row echelon form
that's just how its taught in spanish
i guess
so where did you get stuck?
hm you'll have to look it up if you want the full def but I think they mean how many directions can the given vectors go in
alright, ill look into it. But how do i find the equations and the base?
so once you have your final echelon form you can form the system and you'll have your equation
if you get x y z you have 3 dimension if you only get x and y your answer will be 2 dimensions

the answer should be 0 but I got what did I do wrong?
how do I differentiate between floor and greates integer value?
sorry for the stupid question
[] is the integer less than
huh😭
I meant how do I know if the question want the floor or the greatest integer value
lmao

how do i do b?
Consider what you would do with standard divison. If you do 59/7 which has a remainder of 3 what would you do to make 59 divisible by 7
minus 3 from 59?
yeah do same idea here
-5
where are you getting 5
The point of this is to show the quotient doesn't really matter once you have the remainder
In that example we subtracted 3 from 59, none of these numbers are the quotient
true
The end goal is to force the remainder to be 0
then 12 - 13x = 0?
so we equate ax + b to the original polynomial
yes
and then
Yeah basically just subtract the remainder from the orignal polynomial
Like we did in the 59/7 example

$\frac{sin(x)}{x}+cos(x)$ is the LHL and RHL of this function equal at x=0
17
i got LHL as cos(x)-1
wait thats 0
lhl as 0
and rhl as 2
because its 0^-
then sin(x) can be written as -sin(x)/x right
and sin(x)/x would be 1
and it becomes -1
-1 + cosx
cos(x) becomes 1
It cannot be written like that
and we get 0
sinx/x as x approaches 0 is always 1 irrespective of the direction you approach it from
but the angle is indeed negative right
sin is also negative then and signs cancel
uh ? :(
do you know the infinite series of sinx?
When you divide by x on both sides, you will be left with even powers of x in rhs
So sign does not matter
When you perform the limit, everything except 1 in the rhs approaches 0
$\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(x)}{x} = 1$
Ann
this is two-sided
(so both one-sided limits exist and agree)
maybe that's easier even if OP doesnt know the taylor series for sine

Nothin'
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

I am not doing homework
Okay
server policy still applies, we do not give out answers
No need to worry about @lone anvil
anyway there is one rather obvious root
Ohh

if you write the equation as x^2 + x - (p^2 + p) = 0
there is one root that is very directly visible
I am seeing it
ok can you tell me what this obvious root is
Wait a sec
do not overthink it
front and back terms look similar...👀
What?? How? What u talkin' about?
The root u talkin about is that a number
they are hinting, that x^2 + x and p^2 + p look similar, and they are subtracted, so x = ? is an obvious root
this is the hint for that root😭
it is a number but it's not a raw number
literally just
god ok you ARE overthinking it im sorry
ok
let me try to make it even more on the nose for you
With variable
x=p²+p-x²
no
overthinking it
dont do that
dont do any algebra
x^2 + x = p^2 + p
just stare at it
what can x be to make this true
no algebra no numbers no calculations NOTHING just stare at this
Common
Cancel the squares
compare the terms
no algebra no numbers no calculations NOTHING just stare at this
what can x be to make this true
What do u mean by true
like to make the equation true
you know what the word "true" means right...
look idk how else to say this without just revealing it and making you facepalm
cause i promise this IS the kind of obviousness to induce a facepalm
ok
im gonna set a timer
@delicate prawn aight your two minutes are up
have you come up with the obvious root for x^2+x=p^2+p as i tried making you
Still doing it
ok no
that's too long
cut
since you're DEFINITELY overthinking it
im just gonna tell you
listen closely
for the equation x^2 + x = p^2 + p,
the obvious root, the one you can see with zero extra calculations... is p.
Is that so how?
literally look at the thing like
