or is it unsolvable
Ok that’s so much simpler thank you sir
Is it cool if you check if I did 9a correctly, my textbook is inaccurate since it’s a dated textbook.
I got this
nope, doesn't look right
to make it easier for yourself, multiply 2pi into the parenthesis
on both the terms
x+y/t1+t2=42 6/17 , x=30t1, y=60t2
you should solve it
youre looking for x/x+y
Ok thank you
How should 2pi be in the variable or 3.14 form?
its not engineering 🤮
pi isnt a variable
Ok thank you
My bad
i’m looking for how much of the whole distance he travelled so, d1/total distance
the t1 or t2 will cancel out
i got to where you got in the first box
now how do i solve for the 2nd box
@lapis harness
@midnight marsh
looks way better 😉
@lapis harness i see
Thank you 🥺
how do i have x?
is it cool if I ask another theory question
look at the begining
x = 30t1?
😉
\
yes i know that
so you can get t2 in terms of t1 ?
so 30t1 = 42 6/17*t1?
i dont know t1 or t2
i’m so confused
wait
if you expand those brackets
its all wrong
@lapis harness you get 42 6/17t1 = 30t1
the only thing
holding us back
is the t2
so
if you could get
t2 in terms of t1
what about t1 though
you would solve the question
we dont know t1 either
you can cancel it out
thats what we wanna find
how
so we manipulate the equations
what the
multiply the brackets one variable on right 2nd on left the usual stuff right ?
yes
and you took away 40 from both
i mean 30
dont you have to take away 30t from both
im confused
i’m more confused
thats all correct
the 2nd line i understand
how did you go from 2nd line to 3rd line
if you have ax=by to get y you divide by b right so you get a/b x = y
you just divide by the thing next to your t2
so you divided by what?
(12 6/17)/(17 11/17)
hey guys is the answer 240? I finished I just wanna make sure
but dont they both cancel out
wait
why do you just stick 42 in there @lapis harness
i get everything else
Thanks!]
12 6/17 t1 = 17 11/17 t2
you move the t1 parts to the right and t2 parts to the left
🙂
i read it properly
you switch it
then minus them both
then you land up with that
then you realise that @lapis harness is really good at math
yo wth i think someone posted these exact same questions a few days ago
lol thats interesting
well whenever i see questions like these my first instinct is to get one side to equal 0
because then u can factor and use zero product principle
so how would i go about getting one side equal to 0?
do i cancel the sin on both sides?
no thats bad
never cancel on both sides
if you do that its really bad because you exclude solutions
the only time its safe to cancel on both sides is if youre 100% sure its not gonna equal 0
#help-2 message here's the old post btw
i still dont think u can cancel sin(θ) like arent we gonna lose 0 and pi
can cot(theta) be defined for 0 and pi?
😔 i stand corrected
although not cancelling is the correct and consistent way of solving equations
this is what i wrote for b) the last time
would smn mind helping me with a vector qu
ok sounds good
ill give it a go!
u need to show that NM is a scalar multiple of NZ
thatll prove that NMZ is a straight line
how do i do that
exactly!
find NM then find NZ then show that NZ = q * NM where q is any real number
try make a vector in terms of a and b for PY?
you know that M is the midpoint for PY
woldnt that make the b vector point straight in the opposite direction?
i mean PM or MY
py = a - 3b is right
how is b+a-3b/2 a multiple of -2b+2a
i think u did something wrong
can someone walk me through how to do this pls
is this "find x"?
do you know cosine rule?
could you explain that to me
c^2 = a^2 + b^2 − 2ab cos(C)-cosine rule
same, just a biiit to late
idk can easily search "cosine rule" and figure what to plug in?
@alpine sable literally just plug in the values
okay thanks guys
Hello guys
I need your help
I have math question which contains max min problem and I want to throw it, can you help me
?

Translation results
The closest point of the function f (x) to the point A (a, a) is B. accordingly | AB | ?
is this a correct way to do hypothesis testing? or is the >= sign for the halpha?
!Help
Does anyone know how I'd go about learning the volumes and surface area formulas for 3d shapes? there are so many of them and I have a test tomorrow in which we aren't provided a key for them 😭
For all prisms the volume is V=B*h. For all pyramids the volume is V=B*h/3
For frustum (pyramid cut at the top) you take full pyramid, and remove the small part.
What remains is the ball: here you remember the full volumne, the cut from the middle, and the slice.
For the ball you also learn the 3 surface formulas.
Prism surfaces are easy. 2*B + all_vertical_sides. Pyramid is B + all_side_triangles.
The side triangles are computed by the help of the pythagorean theorem on some right triangles in there.
@wise jewel
@civic crypt these are my current notes on surface area formulas
Rectangular Prism: SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Rectangular Pyramid: SA = ½(lp) + B
Cylinder: SA = 2πr² + 2πrh
Trapezoid: SA= hp + 2B
Cone: SA = πr^2 + πrl
Triangular Pyramid: SA = ½(lp) + B
Sphere: 4πr²
Hemisphere: 3πr²
ive got the volume formulas nailed down i think
Hemisphere is just half the sphere, lul. You dont memorize that 😄
No, it's not. The formula isn't
oddly enough someone else said its half too
i need help on a whole work sheet cause i forgot how to do this
Cause he made a typo
its probabilities
@sour lynx First read #❓how-to-get-help
@civic crypt also when i search online it says the surface area of a hemisphere is " 3πr2" ?
It might be the hemisphere with the base?
That
It's because of that reason
hm, so lets say the hemisphere is connected to, idk, a cylinder for example. in that case, would i make it 2πr^2 since the base is not facing the air?
well regardless, when it is closed (and assuming by closed you mean connected to something) the surface area formula would be 2πr^2 and when it is open it would change to 3πr^2, right?
What about the case of a square pyramid on a cube?
wdym?
Flip it, open hemisphere is 2πr^2, and closed is 3πr^2
If a square pyramid is on a cube, would you include the base of the square pyramid in the calculation?
OK, but you dont learn these formulas in memory. Sphere is 4πr^2. You only remember this.
Open hemisphere is half of that. And for closed you also add a base circle which is r^2π to the half.
Kinda like the idea of a hemisphere on a cylinder
Usually not, and you wouldnt include the top base of the cube either.
@wary stream but doesn't this show an open hemisphere as 3pi*r^2 ?
If it's closed, it has a base
Open means the blue face is missing.
wait so does open mean it is connected to a different shape?
i might have mixed the definitions of open and closed
an open hemisphere would be a hemisphere connected to another shape though, wouldn't it?
the base can only be missing if its connected to another shape id presume
Well it can be missing if you say it is missing.
If you say it is not missing than it is not missing.
well we're not finding the surface area or volume of a bowl
You sometimes do.
not in my grade we're not
It is classical task to find the surface area of a spherical cap
hahaha not in geometry level 1 though 😂
That is basic geometry.
right
well we havent done that yet
but currently the only time ive seen a hemisphere with an open base is when it is connected to another shape
Anyways, cyllinders and prisms behave the same.
You dont memorize the formulas. You just know that V=B*h, and for the SA you compute the 2 bases and the sides.
Same, cones and pyramids behave the same.
I think that it would specify
This is 99% open hemishpere + open cone
@wary stream here my teacher solves it without the base, so I'd assume so
@civic crypt wdym by "99%" ?
You can always ask the teacher to clarify if the base of the sphere and cone are included in the shape
OMG
true
I mean if I run a plane through the intersection of the two objects to separate the two, I would consider them to have a base
but you're not running a plane through it nor splitting them apart
that shape is one entire shape
but can be seen as a cone and a hemisphere
99% chance that the task ask you to consider open hemisphere.
@civic crypt we haven't been asked anything like that at all yet so I'd assume it's not in my test tmrw
even if it is at least i know it'll be 3pi*r^2
Not really. I saw that same definition on wiki.
The plane just defines where the shape gets cut
and not 2pi*r^2
and that's what matters
regardless, i think i figured out what it was I was looking for, I suppose I will just have to memorize the other stuff (except spheres and hemispheres)
@wary stream @civic crypt ty!!!
can anyone help me make a histogram?
Honestly, it's been years since I've done geometry. All I deal with is imaginary numbers and phasors
I mean, you have the point. It is ambiguous.
I think I provided the correct interpretations with 95% probability.
But you can always argue it is ambiguous and you will be right.
@wary stream just assume you're trying to explain geometry to a baby in my case lol
never even heard the word "phasor"....so yeah LMAO
just looked it up and the definition looks to be in a different language hahaha
"a complex number representing a sinusoidal function whose amplitude (A), angular frequency (ω), and initial phase (θ) are time-invariant."
LIKE WHAT
😂
Read #❓how-to-get-help first
the only word i understand from that explanation was "number"
i dont know how to do simple probabillity and i have a whole worksheet on it please elp
help*
alright my bad
can someone show me or something
Eigenvalues and eigenvectors and orthonormal are big words too
@wary stream thought you were speaking german for a second 💀
lmfao
by hand or in a program?
@ashen wave What is the exact question?
by hand
It says make a histogram for the following data set: 12, 14, 14, 14, 16, 18, 20, ,20, 21, 23, 27, 27, 27, 29, 31, 31, 32, 32, 34, 36, 40, 40, 40, 40, 40, 42, 51, 56, 60,65
A histogram can group different values, or it can show each value in its own bar.
I think you need to show each in its own bar?
I would assume so, it doesn't mention any binning
yeah I think so, thats what we usually do
If you usually do, this means you saw couple of examples of this already. What is the problem then?
erm...what do you mean? theres multiple
no he's helping me lol
Yes, explain what frequency means
erm.. like the rate of something
in this instance, freq = the count of data with respect to x
Ya
alright
Like how many times the x value repeated
looping back do your original data, x = 14 three times, so y = 3
Where is x .= 14
ok yeah that was a big "ohhh" moment
No worries, sometimes y is labeled as frequency or count
ok I think I got it let me make the graph and ill upload it
im so confused on how to determine whether or not something is a length or a width
is length the longer side of something?
@tacit bay option 1 is correct because sin&csc are +ve in 2nd quadrant and tan&cot are +ve in 3rd quadrant so 4th quadrant is only option where cot&csc both are -ve.
Oh my goddd i feel stupid now
Thank you
So much
@wise jewel you can't say by looking at the number that this is the length and this the width.
You have to visualise it or unless it's not given in the question..
Alternate exterior angles
And sum of angles on a line equal 180
thx I cant understand my teacher
For 8 a) iii), what would the sketch look like?
I just want to confirm my answer since I got the same answer for i) and ii) as my textbook, but our graphs for iii) are very different
what rule do you need to use?
Yes and chain rule
i don't know power rule
I don't know chain rul
esorry
I didn't learn it
Im in pre calc
Then learn them before attempting a differentiation question
I don't want to do calculus
I just wana kill myself
ive learned so much shit alread
ywhy do i have to learn more shit
Newsflash, learning is life long
wherever I see h(x) I plug in -1 and wherever I see g(x) plug in 3
then u get the function for f(x)
$f'(x)=2h'(x)+2g(x)g'(x)$
moshill1
bro that is a chunky calculation
$2+139⁵
sorry
Find Absolute minimum and maximum within vertices (0,0) (0,2) (2,0).
$f(x,y)=x^2+y^2-2x-2y$
Orubieso
need help w/ this ^ pls, thx
have u tried implicit differentiation
well start off by calculating gradient
^ and do that via implicit diff
finding grad f doesn't involve implicit diff
I'm not sure if I'm missing any points of evaluation
So far I have 6 points evaluated
kinda blurry
can't see anything but if you've already found your points just plug them into the determinant to see whether they're maxim/min
if im trying to figure out length vs width, then how would I be able to "visualize it" when the shape can be looked at in 2 different ways?
in the case of a 3D shape
if i need to find the surface area of a rectangular prism for example, the formula is 2lw * 2lh * 2wh
how can i know what the length and what the width are?
How to be good at maths ?
I get my arse whooped by my mommy
@alpine sable I mean I searched online and it said the same thing
But if that’s the case, why does my teacher put 8 (the shortest side) in for the length in the surface area formula?
Someone above said what she did was correct though, lemme quote that they said “you can't say by looking at the number that this is the length and this the width. You have to visualise it or unless it's not given in the question..”
Ah ok
Yeah true since I get the same answer regardless of what number I put there as long as I do the rest of the formula correctly

Q: What are the coordinates of of the third segment from Point A?
How would i go about solving this question?
wait oops someone else using this channel
@alpine sable can you help me here since someone else is in the otehr chat
part c divide both the top and bottom by sqrt(x)
1/(1+sqrt(x)) and you can plug in x=0
that gives me 1
yo where can I get help??
yeah thats the answer
ask in an unoccupied channel
Wait so i just divide by Sqr x
Ight
divide the numerator and denominator by sqrt(x)
fack i dont have permission
the top cross out and the bottom ur left with x no?
no
ohhh
for part d the numerator has a negative sign and the denominator has a positive sign
unoccupied ?
yeah think so
@alpine sable
Sorry give me one sec
answer for part d is -1
k
the work isn't right, you wouldn't plug in x=-5
you would consider a number slightly smaller than -4
-3?
I get positive 1
so as x approaches -4 from the left, x+4 is negative and |x+4| is positive
Hello
how'd you get that
repost this in an unoccupied channel
-4.01 + 4 / -4.01 + 4
you forgot to take the absolute value on the bottom
yeah that's right
You have to find out the number of ways the marks can be allocated here
yep
how did u know lol
next month is HKIMO and it is so different than our national exams
wdym
Dude highest marks are 28*4 lowest marks is zero. Now just think how many people you need to have 3 people with same marks
oh
what does "how many people you need to have 3 people with same marks" mean
im not native speaker and it looks complicated for me
That no matter what the situation, there would be 3 people with the same marks
Out of the given candidates
oh i get it
Azerbaijani
my second language is Turkish
english is 3rd
anyway
how can i find how many numbers are there in [1,27]
1 to 27
oh right
lets say 1,2,3...26,27 how much numbers are there
is there formula for that
27 numbers
the number of natural numbers between a and b including a and b is b-a+1
well i prefer english one bcs google translate is not accurate
can anyone help explain what a jordan block dot diagram is and it's function in abstract linear algebra?
oh answer is basically 3 x 28?
ohhh i get it now
yep yep i get it
yep im in secondary 2
lmfao
what a coincidence
which country?
allright
heat round first
$\frac{1}{n+1}$ how can I decompose this?
Hyl1s
Can someone help me please
Decompose?
i mean $\frac{1}{n}+\frac{1}{x}=\frac{1}{n+1}$
Channel occupied please move on to some other one
What do you want to do with this
Hyl1s
Oh ok I guess move 1/n to RHS
I mean i want to decompose RHS to similiar type of LHS
$\frac{1}{n+1}=\frac{1}{n}+\frac{-1}{n(n+1)}$
Hyl1s
i am so stupid lol
yep it was stupid question
i think it is topic of physics
It's also a highly unrealistic question. Such an object would reach terminal velocity long before the speed of 5km / s.
(also, why the rocket would need to be qualified as chinese seems out of place)
Oh, really? I have to check if someone actually estimated the speed reaching 5km / s then.

,w 2018 mod 7
He's asking 2018^8102
the answer is 4 btw not 2
,w 8012 mod 7
okay i understand how to calculate but in exam calculator is now allowed
how can i calculate this by hand
I'll give you a hint: 2018 = 2 mod 7 and 2^3 = 8 = 1 mod 7
product of remainders is what you'r supposed to use
you can also use the binomial theorem to expand (2016+2)^8012 if you know that
Yeah but it's mostly maths so that's why i asked here
math is language of physics ofc it will be
- the physics server is just a mess
but formulas :s
exactly
it's a question i found on a twitter page
i didint understand it
ik but just do the maths right hahahahha
should i find 8012 = x mod 7?
if you aren't familiar with the binomial theorem, I suggest you go and learn the basics of modular arithmetic first. You wouldn't understand the method otherwise. If you do know BT, I can give an alternative method
https://brilliant.org/wiki/modular-arithmetic/ this is pretty good for starters
Modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, which considers the remainder. In modular arithmetic, numbers "wrap around" upon reaching a given fixed quantity (this given quantity is known as the modulus) to leave a remainder. Modular arithmetic is often tied to prime numbers, for instance, in Wilson's theorem, Lucas's theorem, and ...
Looks like it is orbiting at around 7km/s. Someone probably thought it could maintain similar velocity on reentry...
Are you interested in a calculation given those premises, or what would be a realistic scenario?
given those premises
this is a physics question, let's just assume the atmosphere doesn't exist
$\frac{m{v_f}^2}{2} = \frac{m{v_i}^2}{2} + mgh = E$
E/4184000 would be kg TNT equivalent
error 404
probably
I'm sure all the energy isn't converted into "impact effect" but it's convenient
I think it's pretty clear that the question is assuming the impact is completely elastic.
I m preparing for IIT can u help me in maths
Me too. Which class r u in
I am pretty sure you can solve this using vectors and the formula for internal ratio
is_your_space_bar_broken_blue_guardian
bad thing is idk what is formula for internal
If a point P internally divides the line AB in the ratio 1:m P=(mA+B)/(1+m)
what is the name of theorem
formula for internal ratio?
Section formula
What do you think is the min amount after which the graph repeats itself
Start at any point (say origin) and see after what value will the shape repeat
@alpine sable
here?
Yeah so what do you think is the period
pi/4+pi/2=3pi/4
Um no
You need b
3pi/4/2=3pi/8?
The period is 3*pi/8
See if f(x) is periodic after a,
Then f(bx) is periodic after a/b
Since graph is tan(bx)
But a is zero
It's periodic after π/b
Tan(bx) is periodic everywhere
Dude...
Do you mean $50^{\frac{3}{2}}$?
NickPro
Yes
So by definintion of a fractional power, $50^{\frac{3}{2}} = \sqrt{50^3}$
NickPro
Ye
Into a mixed radical
So my coefficient was 250
And the root of 2
My answer
And what's the problem?
What is the answer turning it into a mixed radical
Am I right or wrong
@grand kelp
Right
Wtf my answer key is wrong
It said 125 coefficient swaure root of 2
Mine is 250 coefficient swaure root of 2
square*
125root2 is correct
How
you got till 50sqrt(50) right?
It cannot be correct since this has to be a muliple of sqrt(8)
@stark lantern Yes, and 50*5 = 250
50 x 50 x 50 is 125000 and 250 x 250 x 2 is 125000
I should just go to sleep lmao, 50 times 5 = 125 🤦
Chai T. Rex
,w simplify 50^{3/2}
are u guys done?
we are
shoelace
which grade's topic is this?
You can use Heron's formula or the cross product of two vectors
11
heron's when you have coordinates? that's not very cash money
@harsh acorn Get the lengths of all three sides and use Heron's formula.
is it 1
those circled numbers are 1, the area is not 1
yep i was asking for circled ones
@woeful pulsar I mean, if you haven't studied matrices, that's the only option
i know what is matrics but it is absoluetly not topic of low grades lol
Can you use Heron's formula?
yep
Lol this is Olympiad!
i can find sides by S^2=root of y^2+x^2
cross product is pretty fine too
area and cross product has quite a bit of relation
not area
U would've to form vectors
not that bad, given we have coordinates
Matrices is easier
I just don't like random square roots appearing
HKIMO 8TH past paper
Dude have u heard of jee
yep
You can find the distance between one of the vertices and the opposite side and just use the base-height formula
Yeah our papers make us cry
can someone solve the problem step by step?
Whatelse do u need.¿
Gimme a sec
That's unnecessary. You would have to write eqn of line too for perpendicular distance
why spanish tho
si
enserio?
yep i understand
It would probably take forever to use Heron's formula for this
Chai T. Rex
That's the expansion of the cross product formula isn't it
Probably.
Using vectors you can find the area of any polygon
is the opening like $\frac{1}{2}(x1y2+x2y+x3y1-x1y3-x2y1-x3y2)$?
Hyl1s
you can use x_1 for the subscript
is the answer 1.5
Try a simpler version with cross products
k
Yo
Nickpro
How do I turn this into a mixed radical
All I know is that 3/4 turning it into a 4/3 to make the exponent positive
So 4/3 and 7/2 as an exponent
That's great already
How do I turn into a mixed rsdical
first write -3.5 as -35/10= -7/2 (you reverse the base) and you get 7/2 on the power
$(\frac{4}{3})^{\frac{7}{2}} = \sqrt{(\frac{4}{3})^7}$
NickPro
oh right
I cant use a calculator btw
no need to calc
You can use the property of square roots to find that this is equal to $\frac{\sqrt{4^7}}{\sqrt{3^7}}$
NickPro
The root at the top opens up just fine and that is 128
(2^7)
$\sqrt{3^7} = 3^3\sqrt{3} = 27\sqrt{3}$
NickPro
@dense mirage Does that work for you
Chai T. Rex
Why does it scale everything down by a factor of 2
Not sure why they keep giving answers that are off by a factor of 2.
Chai T. Rex
So, 81 is the new denominator.
I have written opening below in the same pic
Chai T. Rex
ohh thanks
No problem.
so my answer is X = 5y/9 and Y = 9x/5
am I correct?
no, that's not the answer
oh
and also, you should not just capitalize math notation carelessly. math is case-sensitive.
Chai T. Rex
also, you should read and understand what chai t. rex is asking you to do
and do that
Uh
I assume by "pure" number he meant a number without any variables(x or y). So it's fine if x+y is -ve
First go to first grade and practise writing. Then ask again.
ahh okay I got my answer then
wym?
thanks
I can't tell what that says at all
First go to first grade and practise reading. Then answer again.
What did you get as x and y tho? Neither should be negative
I got Y=117 and X=-65
did I do something wrong?
Is the equation y + x = 52 or y - x=52?
if it's the latter you should have got +65 instead
@smoky barn You're getting close.
wait no the equation is x+y if y-x = 52
@smoky barn You got one of the numbers y = 117 and x = -65 wrong.
I see
@dense mirage Sorry, I think the channel is still busy.
I got 2 to the power of 178
yea I cant figure it out :/
@smoky barn Just redo your work.
You got very close the first time.
Unless you're saying you redid it.
In which case, show your work.
okay im gonna redo it again
yo i got a math test on trigonometric functions in like 4 hours and i got no clue what i'm doing man
here's some examples
I think X = 65 im not sure
correct. you can always verify by plugging the x and y values back into the original equation to see if they satisfy the conditions
ahh thanks

@surreal meteor what da fuq
Have you tried anything yet?
This is a math and cat server sir
well tbh ik how to do these kind of qns, but the english kinda fumbled me
The half life being 8 days means after 8 day, the number of atoms is half what it was originally
So N(8) = N_0 / 2

No
it should be $\frac{1}{2} = e^{-\beta t}$

because it's n(8)/n_0
@ocean seal is a bot lol
LMAOO oops
$\frac{N_0}{2}=N_0 \cdot e^{-8 \beta}$

$$\frac{(n-2)*180}{n}=12n+6$$ and $$180n-360=12n^2+6n$$
Hyl1s
@harsh acorn Yes.
i tried to solve for n but answer is not integer
idk why
,w solve 180n-360=12n^2+6n
Lol
xd
but it was giving me 2.2525... lol
How do I solve the equation $x^2-8x-9=0$ with the algebra methode?
TeddyA
use the quadratic formula
use quadratic formula or viet theorem
You can also complete the square.
viet is easier
indeed
No because it says I should use algebra
it is algebra
All of these methods are algebraic.
quadratic formula is systematic and always works, other methods require a previous think and can save you time
$$x^2-8x-9=0$$ and $$x_1+x_2= 8$$ $$x_1*x_2=-9$$

as you can see answer is $$x_1=9$$ $$x_2=-1$$
Hyl1s
yep you can use quadratic formula too
i think it is faster
which formula should i use for this problem?
ik how to solve by hand
@harsh acorn Select the positions of the girls.
i just want to know formula
The boys will take the remaining positions.
So, how many ways are there to place the girls?
stop. no. bad.
you should not fixate on knowing "the formula" as much as youre doing rn
also this question is all kinds of ambiguous
like, are the boys and girls all distinct from one another? or can we swap two of the girls without getting a different arrangement?
if they are indepedented from each other then answer is 8! right?
and if they are all distinct then why even mention that theres 2 boys and 6 girls as if that's of any relevance to the problem?
good point
there don't seem to be any restrictions along the lines of "the two boys must not stand together" or something
so if they are distinct answer is 8! but if they are like a group of boys-girls answer is 2
right?
What are the two arrangements, using G and B in like BBGG.... format?
No, do it with individual children.
There should be eight children.
What are the two arrangements of eight children?
Like, BBGGGGGG and GGGGGGBB?
yep
What about BGBGGGGG?
is the answer 8+7+6...+1?
No, because you also have GBBGGGGG.
Again, counting them all up is the long way.
Oh, wait.
from this type there are 8 times
How did you come to 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1?
Oh, OK.
Yes, I see.
But from that one, there are only 7 ways.
yep
So, 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1
But there's another, more general way.
Do you know about what 12C3 means?
no i dont
OK, it means you have 12 things to choose from, and you want to choose 3 of them.
okay
OK, so we have 8 positions to choose from.
And we want to pick 2 of them for the boys to stand in.
Then we have 6 positions left over.
And we want to pick 6 of them for the girls to stand in.
Chai T. Rex
equals to 48C12?
No.
Does that make sense?
Can somebody help me?
@lucid arrow Sorry, channel is busy.
yep it does
OK, do you know what the ! means?
Oh okay
No, not exactly.
The girls aren't in the picture.
8C2 is about 8 positions and where to put the boys.
So, let's say there were three groups.
10 red flowers, 2 green flowers, 5 yellow flowers.
How many arrangements where the same color flowers are indistinguishable from each other?
Chai T. Rex
Yes.
Chai T. Rex
0! was 1 right?
Yes.
Right. You can also cancel the (7 - 2)! with the 5! on top.
oh yep
Instead of the 5! on bottom with the 5! on top.
But yes, that's right.

The parentheses with two numbers written above and below each other with no fraction line is another way to write nCk.
It's called a binomial coefficient.
You may have heard of it from earlier algebra.
so answer is 28
Because there's only one way to choose them all.
And there's only one way to choose none of them.
,w Binomial[8, 2]
Yes, the answer is 28.
for this question answer is 8C3 * 5C5?
Yes, that's right.
well now it looks so easy lol
Pick the positions of the math books. From the remaining positions, pick the positions of the English books.
thank you so much
You're welcome.
