tired axle
#

show me ur process too

cinder sundial
#

am i correct

tired axle
#

yes!

#

then just multiply them

#

and u got ur self a new ratio

#

and youre done

cinder sundial
#

wait multiply those y and x

tired axle
#

not quite

#

just the numbers

#

just multiply across

#

the "y" stay the same

#

just the whole numbers change

#

well only the numerator to be exact

cinder sundial
#

am i right

tired axle
#

bingo!!!!

#

also dont forget!@!!

#

u can do something to that right side

#

😉

cinder sundial
#

wdym

tired axle
#

its not reduced !!!!

#

lol

cinder sundial
#

i have no idea bout the next step

tired axle
#

lol

#

just recude the -6/3 (x)

#

and u are done and u have ur new ratio

cinder sundial
#

ohhh

tired axle
#

LOL

craggy steeple
#

are u done now

tired axle
#

thats it

#

chill homie ^

#

lololol

craggy steeple
#

Lol

#

didnt mean 2 sound rude

#

ready tho?

tired axle
#

all g

#

NO

#

LOL

#

ill tell ui

#

when

craggy steeple
#

ouch

tired axle
#

we are done

#

yikes

#

@cinder sundial show me ur new ratio

craggy steeple
#

expected u guys to be done

#

xd

cinder sundial
#

am i right @tired axle

tired axle
#

yep

#

and u can get rid of that "-1"

#

because -2/1 = -2

cinder sundial
#

oh i forgot

tired axle
#

so change that real quick

cinder sundial
tired axle
#

x

cinder sundial
#

Should I put it in parentheses

tired axle
#

dont forget the x

#

if u want sure

#

but no need

#

-2x

#

the "x" did not go away

#

just the "-1"

cinder sundial
tired axle
#

yes

#

no need for ()

#

but other than that

#

looks good to me

#

and that is ur new ratio

craggy steeple
#

:D

tired axle
#

and u should be done

#

LOLOLOL

#

this guy ^

cinder sundial
#

And actually

craggy steeple
#

been watching this chat

#

🤣

cinder sundial
#

There’s another

tired axle
#

LOL

craggy steeple
#

..

cinder sundial
#

With that xy

craggy steeple
#

die

tired axle
#

delete that plz ^

#

kk

#

@craggy steeple u can dm me ur quiestion

#

i can help 2 at once

#

no problem

cinder sundial
#

(5x+3y:(2x+9y)

#

thats kinda tough, cuz theres double x and y

tired axle
#

?

#

what is the question asking

#

excatly?

cinder sundial
#

its like 5:3 to 5/3

tired axle
#

?????

cinder sundial
#

emmm

tired axle
#

yes 5:3 does =5/3

cinder sundial
#

yes

tired axle
#

so what is the question asking?

cinder sundial
#

thats the final one

#

5x+3y: blah blah blha

tired axle
#

what is it asking>?

#

lol

#

i cant interprett it

#

lol

jagged imp
#

express one variable in terms of the other using 8x+5y=4x-y and then the ratio is only in one variable

cinder sundial
#

make 5x+3y:blah blah= 5x=3y/blahblah

#

and simplify them i think

jagged imp
#

i assume the task is to simplify that ratio given 8x+5y=4x-y

#

so do what i said

cinder sundial
#

no its to find the x and y

tired axle
#

so then

cinder sundial
#

then use the x and y to those other question

tired axle
#

do the same exact thing we jsut did

#

for the first quesiton

#

and apply it to this new qeustion (apply the methods)

cinder sundial
#

i have no idea

#

whats the x and y

#

its inside of it

tired axle
#

im still confused

#

on that the question is asking LOL

#

is it saying" use the x and y we just found and plug it into this new ratio then simplily?"

cinder sundial
#

i think its make them into numbers/numbers

#

like those i have done earlier

tired axle
#

ok

#

if its asking for just that

#

just do some arithimetic and youre good

cinder sundial
#

what

tired axle
#

so u plugged in everything what

cinder sundial
#

i have no idea

tired axle
#

just do the multiplcaiton and addation

#

and then set them as a fraction

cinder sundial
#

should i find the value of x and y

tired axle
#

its not asking for that doe???/

#

u just said it wants to be simplified

#

and then put into a fraction

#

am i correect?

cinder sundial
#

yes

tired axle
#

ok

cinder sundial
#

but its weird

tired axle
cinder sundial
#

left the x and y undone

tired axle
#

if that is just what its asking then i do not see why not?

#

u can always have a (equation with x and y terms in it/ same thing )

cinder sundial
#

really i can have a x and y in equation and its normal

tired axle
#

i mean im just going by what ur directions are

#

and they do not seem clear to me

#

if only they were translated exactly to english

#

im not entirely sure with asain culture and rules of how they do math

#

meaning

#

what if ":" really means =

cinder sundial
#

it is correct

tired axle
#

i have no idea

cinder sundial
#

i have no idea what im doing

tired axle
#

yes ^

#

dont forget

#

the

#

y in the first term

#

and the x in the last term

#

u keep forgetting them

cinder sundial
#

im trippin now, the question is weird

#

am i right

tired axle
#

yes

#

'

#

now if its just asking u to convert that into a fraction

#

just do it lol

cinder sundial
#

can i simplify them

tired axle
#

only 3 of them yes

cinder sundial
#

am i right

tired axle
#

yes

#

get rid of them 1's

#

they make it look sloppy

#

even doe its still correct

#

and then merge them into a fraction

cinder sundial
tired axle
#

so (-(15/2)y-2x)/(-2y-6x)

#

yep

cinder sundial
#

wait

#

so those x and y

#

dont have a true value

#

like a number or sth

tired axle
#

i dont understand

cinder sundial
#

like x= 4 y =8

#

sth like that

tired axle
#

u just told me that all we had to do is plug in the x and y we found in the way beginning

cinder sundial
#

yes

tired axle
#

and then simplifly

#

and put into a fraction

cinder sundial
#

but i wonder if it have an true value

tired axle
#

so that should be right

#

well its not asking us to do that

cinder sundial
tired axle
#

because doing that will make the directions unclear and wrongf

cinder sundial
#

like those x and y

#

we solved earlier

tired axle
#

well in that problem

#

u told me "solve for x and y"

#

for this problem

cinder sundial
#

does they have an true value

tired axle
#

its not asking that

#

.....

cinder sundial
#

can i find the true value of them

#

or they dont have an true value

tired axle
#

well yea

#

but its more work

cinder sundial
#

god

tired axle
#

and now its just making

#

ur directions SUPER unclear

cinder sundial
#

my bad

tired axle
#

so what ur saying now is

cinder sundial
#

what should i do to find the true value of this

#

8x=5y=4x-y

tired axle
#

"using the first x and y we found, plug it in the new ratio and then solve for x and y again"

#

is that what ur asking

#

???

cinder sundial
#

yes

tired axle
#

wow

#

ok so i have work tomorw LOL and i dont want to be here for another hour

#

because if that question is asking that

#

u will be here for a while

#

LOL

cinder sundial
#

omg

tired axle
#

anyways

#

trust me

cinder sundial
#

it is hard question right

tired axle
#

its not that hard

#

kinda

#

just time consuming

cinder sundial
#

god

tired axle
#

literaly dont panic!

#

just do what we did for the first problem

cinder sundial
#

use the same method, u taught me

#

i will

tired axle
#

yeesssss

#

so like

cinder sundial
#

god

tired axle
#

write out ur ratio

#

then put an equal signs

#

and put all ur "x's" on one side

#

and same for "y's"

#

then solve for them both

#

same process

#

just longer equations

cinder sundial
#

god

tired axle
#

thus makiing it a little bit more difficult

#

but same exact process!

#

just with extra terms

cinder sundial
#

ok let me try

tired axle
#

and DONT forget to simppily

#

!!!
\

#

anyways

#

good night and good luck

cinder sundial
#

so x and y does have an true value

tired axle
cinder sundial
#

like an number

tired axle
#

well it may or may not

#

meaning it may be like the first x and y we found

cinder sundial
#

ok

tired axle
#

foor exaMPLE

#

x=-2/3y

#

ORRR it can be like x=-2/3

#

with no y

#

either or

#

okok

cinder sundial
#

why we dont get -2/3

tired axle
#

..........

#

that was just an example

cinder sundial
#

do we left sth

ionic jewel
tired axle
#

meaning x and y could be a interger or rational number

#

orrrrrr can be a number with a variable

#

anyways im gonna go

#

good lucky

cinder sundial
#

ok

tired axle
#

ciao!

cinder sundial
#

i will, thank you

#

@ionic jewel wdym, y = 1

#

could you just give me the answer, so i can have an direction.

#

8x+5y=4x-y

#

find the x and y, and x,y can't be the 0

ionic jewel
#

I'm pretty sure I already gave you answers

#

and you already solved it yourself

ionic jewel
cinder sundial
#

but x and y is unsolve

#

we dont know the true value of them

ionic jewel
#

that's correct

#

there is no set numerical value

cinder sundial
#

here

ionic jewel
#

yeah that's the exact same answer you got

#

note how it says y=-2x/3

#

that's what you got

cinder sundial
#

and x=?

ionic jewel
#

you solved it yourself

cinder sundial
#

but i cant understand

ionic jewel
cinder sundial
#

it is an irrational number

#

or sth

ionic jewel
#

no

#

it's not a number

cinder sundial
#

what it called

#

theres still had unknown numbers

ionic jewel
#

one solution to the problem is x=3 and y=-2 but it's not the only solution

cinder sundial
#

i have no idea, i got x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 earlier

#

why x became 3 and y=-2

#

i want an number, i dont want those xy

#

what should i do

#

8x+5y=4x-y
find the x and y, and x,y can't be 0

ionic jewel
#

there are an infinite number of things x and y can be

ionic jewel
cinder sundial
#

could you show me why x=-3y/2 = 3

vale wigeon
#

can i see the original question

cinder sundial
#

sure

vale wigeon
#

i might not be here long

cinder sundial
#

8x+5y=4x-y
find the x and y, and x,y can't be 0

vale wigeon
#

is that it?

cinder sundial
#

still have another and another with those x y applied

vale wigeon
#

the equation 8x + 5y = 4x - y has infinitely many solutions.

cinder sundial
#

5x:3y=

vale wigeon
#

even when you exclude the zero solution (x=y=0)

#

wait

#

can i see the whole problem? just to be sure?

cinder sundial
vale wigeon
#

,rccw

ocean sealBOT
cinder sundial
#

it said

#

x and y isnt zero

vale wigeon
#

what does the : mean?

cinder sundial
#

and 8x+5y=4x-y, then what is (1)5x:3y=

#

ratio

#

its ratio

vale wigeon
#

okay

jagged imp
vale wigeon
#

well... bunny and you arrived at 2x = -3y earlier, right?

#

which would make x : y = -3 : 2

cinder sundial
#

why

#

its diffrent from what i get

vale wigeon
#

what did you get

cinder sundial
#

x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3

vale wigeon
#

these two are the same

#

and both are the same as 2x = -3y

#

from x=-3y/2 you can divide both sides by y to get x/y = -3/2

cinder sundial
#

x=-3y/2 divided by y=2

vale wigeon
#

we never said y was equal to 2

#

i never said y was equal to 2, anyway

cinder sundial
#

x should become 2

vale wigeon
#

never said x had to be 2 either

cinder sundial
#

oh im confusing

#

like what you get x : y = -3 : 2

#

from x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3

#

like if you took away the 3y, then its 2 for x

vale wigeon
#

"took away the 3y"?

cinder sundial
#

yes

vale wigeon
#

you can't just remove symbols from an equation like that. this is like ripping out a patient's heart and lungs during surgery.

#

$x = -\frac{3y}{2}$

divide both sides by $y$

$\frac{x}{y} = -\frac{3y}{2y}$

ocean sealBOT
cinder sundial
#

still cant understand

#

theres still unknown numbers

vale wigeon
#

and that's okay!

cinder sundial
#

ok

vale wigeon
#

x and y are unknown by themselves, but that's ok

cinder sundial
#

then 5x:3y=

vale wigeon
#

what's important is we know the ratio between them, namely x : y = -3 : 2

cinder sundial
#

ok

vale wigeon
#

then 5x : 3y = -15 : 6, which can be simplified to -5 : 2

cinder sundial
#

what it called btw, from x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 to x : y = -3 : 2

#

whats the process called

vale wigeon
#

i don't know of a special name for it. to me it's just some algebraic moves

cinder sundial
#

i never see x=numbers with y

vale wigeon
#

by the way, you keep saying "x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3" as if they're not literally the same equation in different forms

cinder sundial
#

and y = x with numbers

#

yes bcuz i dont understand how it become that

vale wigeon
#

you don't understand how to get from one to the other?

cinder sundial
#

yes

#

it confusin me

vale wigeon
#

$x = -\frac{3y}{2}$

multiply both sides by 2

$2x = -3y$

divide both sides by $-3$

$-\frac{2x}{3} = y$

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

this is one of several paths you could take (the others are almost the same as this but with very small differences)

cinder sundial
#

i got stuck

#

4 divided by -3

vale wigeon
#

okay so

#

no

cinder sundial
#

ohh

vale wigeon
#

$-\frac{3y}{2} \times 2 \neq -\frac{3y \times 2}{2 \times 2}$

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

this isn't how multiplying a fraction by a whole number works

cinder sundial
#

thats what u means

#

since 3y/2 muliply by 2 is 3y

#

so just take the buttom 2 away

vale wigeon
#

that's what you mean

cinder sundial
#

thank you

#

why i have to mulyiply 2 then divide them with 3

#

why you choose 2 and 3, and why you do that

#

becuz x=-3y/"2" and y=-2x/"3"

vale wigeon
#

you don't have to do anything

#

nobody's forcing you to do anything

cinder sundial
#

am i correct

#

but i have to find an number and get rid of unknown

vale wigeon
#

my goal here is to go from x = -3y/2 to y = (something)

cinder sundial
#

yes

vale wigeon
#

that's what i'm doing

cinder sundial
#

thats what i need

vale wigeon
#

yeah

#

that's why i'm doing things that will get y to be alone

#

honestly? i could've done this in one step: multiply both sides by -2/3

cinder sundial
#

wut

#

how

vale wigeon
#

(-2/3) * (-3/2) = 1

#

so (-2/3) * (-3y/2) would become just y

cinder sundial
#

do you multiply those x and y by 2 then divide them with 3

#

becuz i got x=-3y/"2" and y=-2x/"3"

vale wigeon
cinder sundial
#

yes

#

2 and 3 is Denominator

#

of x and y

#

so you multiplied x by 2 then divided by 3

vale wigeon
#

i have to go now sorry

cinder sundial
#

its ok

#

thank you so much

#

ure the smartest person in the universe

cinder sundial
#

like from x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 to x : y = -3 : 2

#

from my perspective, bcuz 2 and 3 is the Denominator of x=-3y/"2" and y=-2x/"3"

#

but why 2 is being used to multiplying and 3 is dividing

#

and what it called, the method

shell widget
#

@cinder sundial You have $x = \frac{-3y}{2}$

ocean sealBOT
shell widget
#

And you want to solve for y

#

yes?

cinder sundial
#

i wanna x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 be a number without unknown

#

that proves x and y are same thing right

#

but ann said x : y = -3 : 2

#

i can't understand why

#

i have no idea bout all of it

shell widget
#

Oh

uncut osprey
#

If x and y are the same, why not plug in 1 into your 2 equations and see if they produce the same result?

shell widget
#

x : y = -3 : 2 means x/y = -3/2

#

basically the sign : means ratio

#

and ratio means divide

cinder sundial
#

i know, but from x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 to x : y = -3 : 2

#

i dont understand the process

#

even i have wrote it down in paper

shell widget
#

You have x = -3y/2 correct?

cinder sundial
#

yes

shell widget
#

y is being multiplied with -3 on the right side

#

you can bring the y to the left side, but then it comes in the denominator

#

btw

#

you don't need to go from x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 to x : y = -3 : 2

cinder sundial
#

but i wanna a exact number

shell widget
#

you cannot solve this

cinder sundial
#

could u explain why x=-3y/2 and y=-2x/3 = x : y = -3 : 2

#

thats what confussin me

shell widget
#

Okay so first of all

#

you should know that the sign : means divide

#

thats all

#

so you have x : y = -3 : 2

#

that means x/y = -3/2

#

okay?

uncut osprey
#

that's honestly a very strange problem

thorn geyser
#

How big is “countably infinite”.

#

can anyone explain this ^

ionic jewel
#

as an example every real number is not countably infinite becuause there are infinite real numbers per integer

#

obviously this isn't a technical definition but it's a way to think about it

alpine sable
#

shouldnt the break even point be lower?

#

It's $1.30 per cup and the fixed costs is $56,640

#

56640/1.30 = 43,569 cups

#

56640 cups * 1.3 = 73,362

#

So I only need to sell 73,362 cups to cover costs of $56,640

#

?

#

<@&286206848099549185>

vale wigeon
#

56640 < 73362...

alpine sable
#

Hi Ann

vale wigeon
#

your break-even point is like 57k cups

#

you say it should be lower but then state a higher value, about 73k

#

what gives?

alpine sable
#

the formula i have, it gives 56640?

vale wigeon
#

yes

#

look

#

each cup costs 30c to produce and sells for $1.30

alpine sable
#

yes

vale wigeon
#

so with each cup sold, you gain $1 profit

#

your profit is $1 per cup

#

do you understand this

#

yes or no

alpine sable
#

makes sense now

stable pecan
#

Hello Ann. pls hlp in #help-2 as well . I think I am doing something stupidly wrong.

alpine sable
#

when profit =56640 i break even

vale wigeon
#

yes

alpine sable
#

I was thinking i have a profit of $1.30 for each cup sold

vale wigeon
#

no, you have a revenue of 1.30 per cup sold

#

each customer gives you 1.30 when they buy a cup

#

but of that $1.30, thirty cents go to cover your production costs for the cup you just sold

#

and the dollar that remains goes in your pocket

alpine sable
#

1.30 is revenue, 0.30 is variable costs than $1 is gross profit?

vale wigeon
#

it counts towards gross profit

#

but gross profit itself is all the money that goes in your pocket

alpine sable
#

variable costs can also be known as cost of goods sold?

#

cogs?

stable pecan
#

btw Ann, we got it in #help-2 . no need to help now. (:

vale wigeon
#

i'm tempted to say no, but also all this terminology being thrown around is kinda talking its toll on me

alpine sable
#

thanks Ann

quartz tusk
#

Why is 0 not a composite number ? . It has more than one factor

#

Probably infinite

#

Also are there any negative composite numbers ?

rich basin
#

The definition of a composite number requires it to have a multiplicative inverse, which 0 does not have.

cloud matrix
#

0 cannot be written as a product of primes

coral pagoda
#

Also true

charred flint
#

cuz it doesn't have a unique factorization

coral pagoda
#

Alright, now we're just saying fancier words to represent the same thing :p

vale wigeon
#

by that logic, 4 isn't composite since it d doesn't have an inverse in Z

rich basin
#

It is a positive integer that has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.

vale wigeon
#

if you mean positive then say positive

quartz tusk
#

@rich basin Thanks

#

But what is multiplicative inverse ?

vale wigeon
#

reciprocal

#

the multiplicative inverse of x is 1/x basically

quartz tusk
#

Ah

rich basin
vale wigeon
#

nowhere in the defn of a composite integer does it say it should have a multiplicative inverse

#

i mean tbh, zero is special, bc every number is a divisor of zero.

rich basin
#

True, I may have taken "divisor" too liberally.

quartz tusk
#

Also one more thing

#

Can relatively prime be defined over following pair
(-3,5)

#

?

cloud matrix
#

check the definition of relatively prime

quartz tusk
#

I know about it

cloud matrix
#

you can answer that yourself tbh

quartz tusk
#

But my question was that since one is negative nand other is positive there GCD Or HCF is not 1

#

Thus they are not relatively prime

#

Further the pair (3,5) is as they have 1 as HCF

#

Which leads me to conclusion that relatively prime are defined over same type of integers i.e either positive or negative

cloud matrix
#

In number theory, two integers a and b are coprime, relatively prime or mutually prime if the only positive integer that evenly divides both of them is 1. One says also a is prime to b or a is coprime with b. Consequently, any prime number that divides one of a or b does not divide the other.

quartz tusk
#

@cloud matrix what about -3 and -5 ?

cloud matrix
#

look up coprime's properties on wiki

vale wigeon
#

gcd(-3, 5) = 1 yes

cloud matrix
#

"The greatest common divisor (gcd) of two integers is the same as the gcd of their absolute values. Therefore, the function can just replace negative integers by their negatives, which are positive."

quartz tusk
#

Thanks man

#

Also just a little more

#

Can we define factors of 0 ?

#

For the purpose of finding whether (0,5) as re relatively prime or not .

#

@cloud matrix

#

One more thing

quartz tusk
#

Like LCM of (3,5), (-3,5) and (-3,-5) is 15 ?

thorn kindle
#

yes

#

just ignore negative signs

@thorn kindle thanks , just a bit more . So whenever mentioning factors , we are talking about factors of absolute values . Is it ? .
Like factors of -20 is same as that of 20 . ??

thorn kindle
#

yes. +-

quartz tusk
#

+- ??@thorn kindle

thorn kindle
quartz tusk
#

Oh . Thanks

#

But this also raises a doubt . Since we have disregarded -ve signs for lcm and hcf of given numbers ( we have used there absolute values only ) doesn't this makes it wrong to say that 15 is LCM of (-3,5) as 15 is multiple of 5 but it's not multiple of -3 ?.

tight locust
#

-3 * -5 = 15

quartz tusk
#

So this means negative numbers are also multiples ?

tight locust
#

yep

f(x) = (1)/(\sqrt(-x)) , g(x) = f(x-16)

#

can anyone show how to find g(x)?

rancid flume
#

substitute x for x-16

alpine sable
#

the answer is not correct

#

I mean, the graph for the function you said above doesn't match the graph in the answers.

rigid smelt
#

it would be better if you said what your answer was

alpine sable
#

גרף - graph

rigid smelt
#

no i meant, what you wrote as an answer

#

and i cant read that sorry....

alpine sable
#

I don't have an answer I just don't know how to get the function

#

If I know that g(x) equals f(x-16)

#

f(x) = 1/sqrt(-x)

rigid smelt
alpine sable
rigid smelt
#

again

#

you need to write your answer

#

so i know if you did it correctly

#

and btw, they are right

alpine sable
#

Cool, now how?

rigid smelt
#

you sub (x-16) into places where x are present

alpine sable
#

I know

rigid smelt
#

so what is your answer?

#

you keep saying its wrong but didnt show me what you did

alpine sable
#

g(x) = 1/sqrt(16-x)

rigid smelt
#

yes

alpine sable
#

its wrong

rigid smelt
#

then your textbook made a typo or sth

#

what answer was in your textbook?

alpine sable
#

It's not a textbook. It's an old exam.

rigid smelt
#

sure, still what is the "assumingly correct" answer

alpine sable
#

Oh never mind it's right I had a typo while writing the func on Desmos. Thanks for the help

whats up with this weird way of calculating 3rd order determinants?
everything looks so random

<@&286206848099549185>

^ This series of videos will help you appreciate why we calculate determinants the way we do and make it seem non-random so it makes sense

#

A determinant is basically a unique number associated with a square matrix. If you want to understand why we define how to calculate determinants the way we do, I highly recommend the playlist.

If we have 4 red socks, 6 blue and 8 white in a drawer, what is the probability of getting a red pair given that we take 2 socks.

Why can't we just take (4c2)/(18c2)?

I understand the other method for calculating it with conditional probability but why is this wrong?

stable pecan
#

Are we replacing the socks after taking them?

fast jay
#

No, not putting it back.

stable pecan
#

Your method is correct then

fast jay
#

Oh I misread the question lmao, thanks!

stable pecan
#

Ok

#

You are welcome ^^

quaint ivy
#

Can I get help with this problem (and where to start)?

stable pecan
#

Assume the number of bacteria at any instance is x

#

how will we express the rate of change in the number of bacteria with respect to time?

quaint ivy
#

dx/dt?

stable pecan
#

yup

#

Also, the number of bacteria is already y according to the equation, we didn't need to assume it, sorry

#

Now integrate dy/dt=ky

#

What do you get?

quaint ivy
#

I'm not sure how to

#

As in I know how to integrate things, just not what I should be integrating with respects to here

stable pecan
#

Have you heard of integration by variable seperation method?

quaint ivy
#

I believe so?

#

should it be the integral of 1/k * y^-1 equals the integral of dt?

stable pecan
#

integral of (dy/(ky)) will be equal to the integral of dt, yes

#

Now try it

quaint ivy
#

Is this correct so far?

stable pecan
#

You have made a mistake while removing the log

#

Can you spot it?

quaint ivy
#

Should I have multiplied both sides by k before raising both sides with e?

stable pecan
#

yes

quaint ivy
#

Alright, I fixed that, and got y=Ce^(kt). I'm not sure what to do from there to solve for k though

#

And/or if I need to solve for C first somehow

stable pecan
#

Well, the question has given you 2 values of y and t

#

try substituting them in

#

to find k and C

quaint ivy
#

I think that's what I'm really stuck on, I'm not sure how to solve for both given that there's 2

#

And substituting in one of the two sets of y/t will either leave things in terms of k or in terms of C

stable pecan
#

Substitute y=123,t=1 for 1st eqn

#

then y=357,t=3 for 2nd

#

Now try

quaint ivy
#

I'm not quite sure what to do from here

#

I imagine this is something related to a system of equations, but it's been like 4-5 years since I've had to use techniques to solve for these lol

stable pecan
#

You need to do something to remove one constant from the equations. Which operation (+,-,*,/) can you perform?

quaint ivy
#

Would I be able to divide the top equation by the bottom?

stable pecan
#

Why not?

#

Try it

#

Experimenting and playing around is always a good idea when you don't know what to do exactly

quaint ivy
#

I hope the order of the work isn't too confusing, I ran out of page space lol

#

I don't believe this is one of the answers unfortunately ):

#

Though it's entirely possible by algebra is just wrong somewhere

stable pecan
#

Note that the question asks you to find dy/dt, not k

#

You need to find k and c

upbeat gorge
#

Also there’s a slight mistake

stable pecan
upbeat gorge
#

Remember $\sqrt{\frac{a}{b}}=\frac{\sqrt{a}}{\sqrt{b}}$

ocean sealBOT
stable pecan
quaint ivy
#

Oh shoot, I didn't notice I forgot to carry the sqrt over

#

Yeah, that was a typo, but I wouldn't have noticed it otherwise

stable pecan
quaint ivy
#

Thanks CST (:

#

And that makes so much sense Alacris

#

Lemme try that real quick

upbeat gorge
stable pecan
quaint ivy
#

Wait, which step/equation would I plug that K value back into to solve for Y?

#

Since all of them have C in it

upbeat gorge
#

Your choice

stable pecan
#

y=Ce^(kt)

stable pecan
quaint ivy
#

How would I solve for y since C is there though?

stable pecan
#

you already have the values of y,t,k

#

you just need to find c first

quaint ivy
#

Ahh

#

I solved for C, but what would I use for t when solving for y? Since I have C and K

stable pecan
#

I think the question is incomplete as they haven't mentioned the time at which we have to calculate the rate of growth (which increases as time increases)

#

But try putting both 1 and 3 for t and see if the option matches

quaint ivy
#

None of it matches :/

#

I think I'm doing this wrong

#

Can we possibly eliminate C since y=1 at time 0?

#

or at least I assume it is, I have no idea

stable pecan
#

I think the question is incomplete

quaint ivy
#

Unfortunately I won't even be able to see the answer or whether I got it right or wrong lol. I'll just put in a random answer, but thanks otherwise!

stable pecan
#

You are welcome ^^

quaint ivy
#

Any chance with getting help with this one? This was the other I was stuck on

# quaint ivy

can you fig out the equation using the hint? after that, you just differentiate it for the RATE of change

can i calculate employee turnover rate by no. of people who left / total employees (including current employees and those who left)?

teal fox
umbral pecan
#

thank you

teal fox
#

umbral pecan
#

I'm not sure, I don't think the dataset gives enough information, hence : turnover rate by no. of people who left / total employees (including current employees and those who left)

small helm
#

Lets say I say the cartesian equation of a plane is -6x -6y + 3z + 15, what does that actually mean?

stable pecan
#

It's not equating anything

small helm
#

sorry -6x -6y + 3z + 15 = 0

stable pecan
#

If you plot all the solutions (values of (x,y,z)) of that equation in a cartesian coordinate system, you will get a plane

small helm
#

will that equation have 3 solutions? Cause don't you need 3 points to plot a plane?

stable pecan
#

a solution will be a set of 3 values

#

the equation has infinitely many solutions

small helm
#

ok

rich basin
stable pecan
#

All the points in the above graph are solutions to the equation

rich basin
#

Yes, but I didn't understand "a solution will be a set of 3 points".

copper umbra
stable pecan

I meant values

#

It's fixed now

stable pecan

#

Yeah I get it now it's just a 2D representation of all the values that satisfy that equation, just like how the line y = x is a line of values that satisfies that equation

cinder sundial
#

do you guys have any idea, where should i getting started with

#

i just forgot how to solve question like that

#

0.4=4/10 if my memory serves me right

alpine sable
#

find out what the left side of the equation is. Then divide that from 0,4

cinder sundial
#

6/7 for left side

alpine sable
#

find it what 0,4 / x = 6/7

#

just find x

cinder sundial
#

when i subtract a fraction, i just like subtract it right

#

dont have to make it equivalent

#

or i have to before i subtractin them

alpine sable
#

you mean like 1/4 - 1/2?

cinder sundial
alpine sable
#

yeah just like addition just subtract at the end

cinder sundial
#

am i correct

alpine sable
#

no it's 16/35

#

6/7 - 4/10 right?

cinder sundial
#

yes

#

7-10=-3

#

6-4=2

#

thats how i got the answer

alpine sable
#

no you have to find equivalent

#

2 sec

cinder sundial
#

yes, i did remember i have to find equivalent

#

but im not quite sure bout that

alpine sable
cinder sundial
#

yes

alpine sable
#

ya like that

cinder sundial
#

then whats the number inside of square

#

what should i do to find it

alpine sable
#

well you have to make it an equation like i said before

#

so

cinder sundial
#

square = x

alpine sable
#

0,4 / x = 6/7

#

yes

#

in the end you'll get 0,4 / 6/7 = x

cinder sundial
#

im trippin again, i dont know what am i doing rn

#

just forgot what i did before

#

let me rewrite it

alpine sable
#

forget the subtraction stuff

cinder sundial
#

so i dont have to do that

alpine sable
#

yeah just solve for x

#

Here’s a step by step of what you’ve done so far

#

let's say box = x

cinder sundial
#

yes

#

i dont know what should i do next

alpine sable
#

you just need to solve 4/10 : 6/7

cinder sundial
#

u wanna me to take the riciprocal then multiply them

alpine sable
#

yes

#

so the answer is?

cinder sundial
#

28/60

#

=x?

alpine sable
#

yes

#

or 7/15

cinder sundial
#

yes

alpine sable
#

same thing

cinder sundial
#

finally

#

thank you so much @alpine sable

Just wondering if would this be a valid way of using L.H's rule? My end answer is apparently correct, but my method seems completely wrong.

alpine sable
#

what really pops out at first is that you didn't made a simple cancellation 2x/2x=1.

#

some tips, your working is a little bit messy as in there are too many arrows/changes of direction, i'd recommend trying to keep this linear, to make it easier to read, go line by line from left to right, you'll waste even less space and it'll be more organised.

#

if you insist on using L'Hôp on this, simply using it at first sight works as well and may be easier than what you did

#

can't you solve that by saying that the x on top and the x on the bottom are both to the power of 1 since there's the square root and then just not counting the 1 because infinity-1 is still infinity

#

so you'd get x/x which is 1

#

this is how my teacher taught me to solve this at least

velvet pelican
#

Dividing by x works aswell for more rigour

alpine sable
#

the question was directed to L'Hôp

#

gotcha

#

can I jump in with another question?

#

or I should go to another channel?

#

i'd go in another channel just in case thet pop up with doubts

#

and i'm not done yet

#

aight

#

thanks

#

and i'm not a fan of your notation/syntax, while you're doing a substitution f(x)=x/sqrt(x²+1), you are missusing/ignoring the actual limit you were finding, you need to be respectful to what you're finding as well on all of the steps.

alpine sable
# sage jacinth thank you for this. if i wanted to use l'hopital from step one i would just get ...

just saw this, you'd get 2sqrt(x²+1)/x and yeah this leads nowhere, this is a bad example to use L'Hôp anyways. but yeah i wouldn't recommend using it either and you can consider some algebraic manipulations like dividing by x on numerator and denominator, or not do this, and consider another method that consists of when talking about infinity-wise, the constant terms like 1 can be pulled, as the leading terms will be the ones who will mark for the behaviour on the ends, so you can solve for =lim x->+∞ x/sqrt(x²) which easily simplifies to something.

@alpine sable The radius is just the hypotenuse of the right triangle, and the 2.64 is the horizontal distance (2nd side of the right triangle). You can compare the ratios for a. cos(theta) = adj/hyp = 2.64/sqrt(2.64^2+1.81^2). For B i think it is 1.81/hypotenuse and the sin(theta) = opp/hyp = 1.81/sqrt(2.64^2+1.81^2). Keep in mind theta is the angle formed by the x axis and the terminal side. Also think about the range of sin and cos (they cannot exceed 1). I just realized that they gave you the radius from the start after writing this, but I'll leave the work so you can see how they got it. Hopefully that helps!

@nocturne gazelle try asking questions that people actually know how to answer next time

#

90% of the people here (me included) don't even know what a disjoint subset is

#

maybe ask about something a bit simpler like systems of linear equations or trig functions

#

i'm really good at systems of linear equations

i was going to answer but then he had to go and be rude about it

#

there's a good few people here that know higher level math, it will just take longer to get an answer

#

I understand what they say about the sequence

#

but what is the notation 1010(subscript 5)

turbid idol
#

It means 1010 in base 5

#

For example

tight locust
#

well you see

#

numbers are just sums of powers times coefficients

#

1234 (in base 10) = 1* 10^3 + 2*10^2 + 3*10^1 + 4*10^0

#

so what is 1010 (base 5)? i'll leave that exercise to you

cunning cape
fleet steeple
#

hmm

#

it would be 1*10^3 + 1 times 10^1

#

@tight locust ?

#

oh base 5

turbid idol
#

Yes in base 10! And now on base 5

fleet steeple
#

hmm base 5

#

1^5*3 + 2 times 5^?

#

wait before that how did they get 1010 subscript 5

tight locust
#

2020/2 = 1010

#

which is the k'th number

fleet steeple
#

ok

#

f it started at 0

#

would it be 1011

#

?

tight locust
#

yeah

fleet steeple
#

ok

tight locust
#

i think you get it

fleet steeple
#

so 1010 written in base 5

#

wait

#

im not getting it lol

#

1 times 5^3 = 125

#

but how do you get

#

1010 frorm 125

tight locust
#

read what i wrote above

#

numbers in base n are sums of coefficients times the powers of n

what would 1234 be in base 5

the same thing
