Did you do $$A - \lambda \cdot I = 0$$ and then RREF?

Can someone explain how line 3 turned into the equation on line 4?

prisma cape
#

i know the overall concept

silver current
unique ingot
#

My textbook answers are full of errors so you might be able to solve it a diff way

silver current
#

like there is a bracket on the power of 32

unique ingot
#

Yeah confusing

prisma cape
#

yeah

silver current
#

I hope this helps

#

The scratched out is 1/2

unique ingot
#

Oh wow thank you!!!

#

Wait the roots aren’t 1/2 and 1?

wary stream
# silver current

I know that you are trying to help but next time, don't do the full work. Ask the person for their attempt and see what they got stuck on

unique ingot
#

I got the same answer as you too

silver current
silver current
unique ingot
#

I wonder how it got 1/2 and 1

silver current

#

I’m an idiot, the final solutions are 1/2 and 1

#

Ok I got it now, thanks 🙂

Hello

#

I am taking a CS class called 222 "intro to discrete structures"

#

and on the homework there is a problem that I just wanted to run by someone to see if I did it right but basically

#

they have a sample of 50 people and want to take 8 of them, how many different ways can they be arranged

#

and I thought it would be 50!/8!

small bear
#

You can use just combinations to solve the problem

kindred harbor
#

for Part A it would be35,254,642,500 because

#

but idk about part B

#

I think its just (50 - 8)! * 8!

#

but that seems like too big of a number

small bear
#

Well in this question, we care which student is where (they are distinguishable)

kindred harbor
#

maybe when it says "arranged left to right" it means that you pick a group of 8 students and its asking how many ways you can arrange that 8 students?

small bear
#

From the 50 students, we permute them, and we get all the permutations

kindred harbor
#

I fractured my foot so I missed a few lectures which doesn't help

small bear
#

However, once we sit down the students, or we draw a line at the 8th person, we don't care about the arrangement of the other people

kindred harbor
#

okay so its just 8! then?

small bear
#

rather we would have 50! / (50-8)!

kindred harbor
#

oh right

#

but isnt that a huge number?

#

ohhh nvm

small bear
#

This is just 50*49*48* ... *43

#

well it is a big number

kindred harbor
#

2.16 * 10^13 ish?

small bear
#

the factorial function is a very fast growing function, so this shouldn't be surprising

kindred harbor
#

yeah true

#

just seems like he usually gives us numbers we can write out on paper

small bear
ocean sealBOT
kindred harbor
#

cool

#

now for the last one

#

its kind of confusing because

#

c) 8 of the students are lined up from left to right. In how many ways can this be done if we consider only their majors, and not their names?(3 points)

#

idk where it mentioned names in the last problem but if I had to guess thats what it means by left to right?

#

so if I had to guess, instead of 50! / (50-8)! it would be for each major, take 8 students from their group and see the possible arrangements?

small bear
#

Names mean they are distinguishable, John sitting next to Alex from left to right is different than Alex sitting to John (we can't use combinations*)

craggy fossil
#

pls help me 1+1

kindred harbor
#

so

#

kinda similar to the first problem?

#

I just figure out the permutations of each different major and then multiply?

craggy fossil
#

PLEASE 1+1

kindred harbor
#

what would the first group be?

#

just 8!?

#

if theres 8 students in the major and I am finding the possible arrangements for those 8 students, it would just be 8!?

small bear
kindred harbor
#

so for example

small bear
kindred harbor
#

for the major with 12 students

#

it would be (12-8)! * 8!

small bear
#

We still have the ordinary 50! students aligned

kindred harbor
#

but its by major

small bear
#

Still, we need to work with all of them

kindred harbor
#

it says arranged considering only their major

#

but I digress, im not really sure what you are getting at

small bear
#

So first of we choose 8 people from the 50 to be selected right?

kindred harbor
#

I dont believe so no

small bear
#

Why not?

kindred harbor
#

because its not just any 8 out of the 50

#

the 8 all have to be of the same major

#

similar to part 8

#

its basically asking

#

if I have 8 students from each major

#

how many combinations are there

small bear
kindred harbor
#

so I would find out the possibilities for computer engineers, then for computer science majors

#

I think they do?

#

oh

#

I keep trying to assimilate part c with a

#

but they are different

#

you are right

#

so its just 50! then?

small bear
#

No no, that would be if we wanted to select 50 students for something, 50! is bigger than all of our answers (for part (a) and (b)) so it certainly isn't

kindred harbor
#

like I dont understand why the majors matter at all if they can have any group of any major

#

oh wait I think im starting to see now

small bear
#

Let's rephrase the problem into something that makes sense

kindred harbor
#

so I pick 8 students given the 4 different majors and their criteria

#

so I have to find the number of possibilities per major and add?

small bear
#

Yes, and here the name doesn't matter of the student, only the major does, let me explain in detail with an analogy

#

I have a box of 50 balls, 8 are coloured red, 12 blue, 20 green and 10 yellow,
(c) In how many ways can I put them in a row (only 8 balls*) so they all give a different arrangement of colours

#

This is the same statement, just simplified

kindred harbor
#

hmm okay

small bear
#

Now when we have for example, green blue yellow ... and another case where I choose perhaps a different green ball to be in first place, it wouldn't matter, they are both green

#

Does it make sense?

#

(The explanation I gave is really poor lol)

kindred harbor
#

yeah it does

vale wigeon
#

wait what problem are y'all doing

kindred harbor
#

order does not matter

vale wigeon
#

i'm a little suspicious of peacegiant's analogy

vale wigeon
#

ah.

kindred harbor
#

heres the majors and the number of students in each major

small bear
dense haven
#

i have a question, - - equals + right? what does + + equal? and what does - + equal?

#

i forgot..

kindred harbor
#
    • = -
small bear
#

So instead of looking at the students as students, we just want to put the names of the majors in a line of 8 so that each time, we don't get a repetitive combination

CS EE CE ...
EE CS CE
EE CE CS

are all different

but

CS (Anna)    EE  CE
CS (John)    EE  CE

would be the same
kindred harbor
#

subtracting a positive is just subtraction

#

subtracting a negative is addition

kindred harbor
#

so basically I can only take one student per major?

dense haven
kindred harbor
#

adding a positive is just adding

dense haven
#

good i thought that too.

small bear
kindred harbor
#

im confused on how I would like write that out though

#

for Part A I kinda wrote it like this:

small bear
#

If that is the product of all of them it should be correct

#

With this one it's permutations with repetition, have you perhaps written a formula down (so we can make an intuitive sense out of it) or do you not have it?

kindred harbor
#

I may have a formula in my notes let me check

#

nPn = n! / (n- n )!

#

oh here with repetitions its

#

n! / r1! * r2! * ... rk!)

small bear
#

Nvm, so we have 50 majors in total right?

kindred harbor
#

no

#

50 students in total

#

theres 8 CE majors, 12 CS majors, 20 EE majors and 10 SE majors

small bear
#

yes, 50 majors when we combine the students, 8CE Majors etc

kindred harbor
#

yes

#

right

#

but we only pick 8 of them

small bear
#

Yup, in how many ways can we permute all of them?

kindred harbor
#

50! / (50 - 8)!? aka 50! / 42!?

small bear
#

That would be directly yes, this means that we don't care about the rest 42 students/majors

#

Now, all of those combinations will have repeating students with the same majors, we don't want that

#

We need to remove very permutation from all of the majors

kindred harbor
#

so I need to limit it to 1 per major?

small bear
#

Starting with the CE Major (8 students), how many permutations would we have to divide so that we have no repetition

kindred harbor
#

divide by the number of students in each major?

small bear
#

Well by the factorial, since we permute the students

kindred harbor
#

so like

#

(50! / (50 - 8)! ) / 8! + 12! + 20! + 10!?

small bear
#

We wouldn't sum them

kindred harbor
#

multiply?

small bear
#

There is something off since this is not an integer

kindred harbor
#

wdym everything is an integer

#

oh the result has to be an integer yeah

#

well the problem is

#

I have to have more than one student from a major

#

theres not 8 majors

#

so its okay to have 4 computer engineering students for example

#

and its okay to have the same student multiple times since they say the name doesnt matter?

small bear
#

We need to view it like that yes, A permutation of (CS, CE, EE, SE) with repetition, in a row of 8

kindred harbor
#

okay

#

so what would the formula be?

small bear
#

Gimme a second

#

It would be just 4^8 I believe when we rephrase the question like that

#

Alright so what we want to do is fill in this row with (CS, CE, EE, SE)
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

#

Does that make sense?

#

(since each major has more or equal to 8 students, we just need to put the letters in that row)

kindred harbor
#

yeah

small bear
#

Alright, for the first one, how many options do we have?

kindred harbor
#

4

#

4 options per letter

#

8 'letters'

small bear
#

yup, so that would give 4^8

kindred harbor
#

okay

#

thanks so much for your help

#

turned it in with an hour to spare 🙏

small bear
#

No problem, we got there in the end

spark reef
#

guys i just started limits i need some clarification

alpine sable
spark reef
#

would A be f(1)?

#

oh no i just need this quick clarification i’m about to go to class

#

but when it’s a line like that does it still count as a limit or does it not because it actually crosses 3?

small bear
# spark reef would A be f(1)?

A limit is just a value that a function approaches (in this case the function f(g(x))). This value would be same as f(1) since g(x) is well-defined for x=3

spark reef
#

ohh so since the values at x->a- and x->a+ are approaching 1 its still the limit?

#

thanks for clearing that up!

bronze flint
#

can anyone help me with this one?

tawdry sphinx
#

do you know Pythagorean Theorem?

bronze flint
#

yea

#

supposed to be 4.24

tawdry sphinx
#

the this should not be hard right?

bronze flint
#

it said wrong

#

is it 4.24?

glass lichen
#

Yeah it says exact...

#

4.24 isn't exact

bronze flint
#

like the whole thing?

glass lichen
#

The radical

tawdry sphinx
#

yeah exact result sqrt(18)

bronze flint
#

oh

#

what about second question?

#

kinda confused

tawdry sphinx
#

never round when not in physics lol

glass lichen
#

That you can use the decimal expansion

tawdry sphinx
#

or you can see that sqrt(18) lies between sqrt(16)=4 and sqrt(25)=5

bronze flint
#

ok

#

thx

tawdry sphinx
#

np

#

have a nice day :D

bronze flint
#

u too

tawdry sphinx
#

@glass lichen could you maybe check out #help-9 if you have time?

glass lichen

No

tawdry sphinx

4pq + 4qr + 5pq -7qr -8qp

oak chasm
#

@alpine sable First, put the variables in alphabetical order in each term.

alpine sable
#

ohh ok so 4pq + 4qr -+ 5pq - 7qr -8pq

oak chasm
#

Yes, but you have an extra - now.

alpine sable
#

why

oak chasm
#

ohh ok so 4pq + 4qr -+ 5pq - 7qr -8pq

#

See the -+ in front of 5pq?

alpine sable
#

sorry i didn’t realise i put that in by accident my bad

oak chasm
#

OK, so you have 4pq + 4qr + 5pq - 7qr - 8pq.

alpine sable
#

yes

oak chasm
#

OK, the first term is 4pq.

#

It has one copy of p and one copy of q.

#

What other terms have exactly that?

alpine sable
#

5 and 8

oak chasm
#

Right.

#

Those are called like terms because they have the same number of copies of each variable.

#

So, you add the number in front (the coefficient) from each together.

alpine sable
#

ohh so the answer would be pcq -3qr

oak chasm
#

4pq, 5pq, -8pq

#

The numbers in front are 4, 5, and -8.

alpine sable
#

pq*

oak chasm
#

4 + 5 - 8

alpine sable
#

yo can yall help me on 9 questions?

oak chasm
#

What's that?

#

@alpine sable Sorry, this channel is busy.

alpine sable
#

aight

#

1

oak chasm
#

So 1pq.

#

And if the number in front is 1, we don't write it.

#

So, pq.

alpine sable
#

ah yes i see now

oak chasm
#

OK, what other terms are left over?

alpine sable
#

thanks i was getting it wrong because i wasn’t putting the like terms in alphabetical order

oak chasm
#

4pq + 4qr + 5pq - 7qr - 8pq

#

4qr and -7qr are left over.

#

Each has one q and one r.

#

So they're like terms.

#

We add the numbers in front.

#

4 - 7

#

-3

#

So, -3qr

alpine sable
#

that’s right thanks

oak chasm
#

No problem.

alpine sable
#

u guys done?

#

i have questions

$A=\frac{1}{2}h(b_1+b_2)$

$\frac{A}{(b_1+b_2)}=\frac{1}{2}h$

3rd one then innit?

woven sphinx

ty

woven sphinx
desert oyster
#

could you explain me?

#

i don´t need answers only explanation please

woven sphinx
#

don't understand as in you don't know why it's true, or how to apply it?

desert oyster
#

both

woven sphinx
#

all right

#

so we don't necessarily need to prove this but i can explain a bit later

#

anyways

#

i'm assuming you know $(x+y)^n=\sum^n_{i=0}\binom{n}{i}x^iy^{y-i}$ right?

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

desert oyster
#

yes i do

final crystal
#

Solve: d2y/dx2 - 2 dy/dx + y = x^2 + 4 e^3x ????

woven sphinx
#

cool

#

bro wait

#

anyways

#

we apply the following substitutions:
$x=3y$

$y=-p$

$n=19$

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

woven sphinx
#

i may have chosen bad symbols sorry

#

forgive my abuse of notation

#

anyways

desert oyster
#

No worries keep explaining

alpine sable
#

L=M-N for N

#

L=M-N

#

damn doesnt work

bronze flint
#

@alpine sable

alpine sable
#

yep

bronze flint
#

what were ur question again?

woven sphinx
#

those substitutions would give $(3y-p)^{19}=\sum^{19}_{i=0}\binom{19}{i}(3y)^i(-p)^{19-i}$

alpine sable
ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

bronze flint
desert oyster
#

Mmm so i should substitute then?

bronze flint
#

N = -L+M

alpine sable
bronze flint
#

k

#

N=M-L

#

very bottom

woven sphinx
ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

bronze flint
#

did u try it?

#

@alpine sable

woven sphinx
#

turns out we actually want the specific case $i=2$

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

alpine sable
#

thanks

#

is right :)

bronze flint
#

np

alpine sable
#

this right?

woven sphinx
#

anyways if we only consider the $i=2$ term of that particular expression, we have the expression $\binom{19}{2}(3y)^2(-p)^{17}=\binom{19}{2}\cdot3^2\cdot(-1)^{17}y^2p^{17}$

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

woven sphinx
#

so our coefficient is $\binom{19}{2}\cdot3^2\cdot(-1)^{17}$

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

woven sphinx
#

which is -1539 i think

#

@desert oyster does this help?

are you very sure

alpine sable
#

honestly no

woven sphinx
#

suppose e is 10, h=2

#

then the question becomes 10-10 times 2

#

are you sure that's equal to 10-2*10?

alpine sable
#

1st one then?

woven sphinx
#

no

#

2nd one

#

i mean surely you know that e.g. the number 11-10, when multiplied by 2, equals 2*(11-10) instead of 2*11-10 or 11-2*10

alpine sable

do you know the compound interest formula

random seal
#

yes

#

i used it but it gave me the wrong answer

uncut tapir
#

And be careful there's a trap on this question

woven sphinx
#

what did u try?

random seal
#

i mean i put in the wrong numbers, I am supposed to put the intrest rate as "5.4%"

#

as in 1.35*4 because it is quarterly

uncut tapir
#

That's not correct

random seal
#

but I don't know why

uncut tapir
#

Oh yeah ^4 is

random seal
#

it gave me an answer that's why

woven sphinx
#

so you're not paid every year, you're paid every quarter

#

how many quarters are in 6 years?

random seal
#

24

woven sphinx
#

and each time you're paid 1.35% of your income

#

so the correct balance would be $1000\cdot(1.0135)^{24}$

ocean sealBOT
#

A Fellow Human

random seal
#

shouldn't it be like this?

#

1000(1.003375)^24

uncut tapir
#

No, that's not 1.35/100

random seal
#

following this formula

#

since k=4 because "quarterly"

uncut tapir
#

I don't know why they have k in the denominator but that can't be right. Unless the rate refers to annual interest

#

But it doesn't. It says the interest rate is quarterly

Maybe basic calculator needs to evaluate arcsin(155) first

#

So try that and then multiply answer by 60 and divide by 97.73

small bear
#

Domain of arcsin(x) is -1 <= x <=1

hollow basin
#

I m having no luck

rigid wind
#

what are you trying to compute? why is arcsin there

hollow basin
#

My prof told me to put sin-1

rigid wind
#

what compels you to put arcsin(155) ...

#

what's the og problem

alpine sable
#

arcsin 155 is undefined

#

because the domain of arcsin is [-pi/2, pi/2]

small bear
alpine sable
#

then what is the domain

#

and how do i realize it without memorization

small bear
#

arcsin(x) is the inverse of sin(x), that means the domain and ranges are swapped, if we constrict sin(x) from -pi/2 to pi/2 due to periodicity (and the fact the function must be injective), it's easy to see that is the range for arcsin

alpine sable
#

ah yes i see

#

so the domain is [-1, 1]

hollow basin
#

Fuck you prof he made a error in the class

If I have 3 vectors and one is supposed to be perpendicular to the other two. Does that mean the other two have to be parallel to each other?

rigid wind
#

in 2D?

brazen forge
#

3D

#

For one of my questions I have to figure out, out of 3 vectors one is perpendicular to the other two

rigid wind
#

means they belong on a plane

brazen forge
#

I found the that one vector is perpendicular to the other two, but those two aren’t parallel to each other

brazen forge
rigid wind
#

for simple test just take (0, 0, 1) and any 2 vectors on xy-plane

brazen forge
#

Idk how to do that, I took the dot product and then compared that to square root

#

And compared that to the magnitudes of the vectors *

rigid wind
#

dot product == 0 means they perpendicular to each other

brazen forge
#

Yes and that’s how I found that the one vector is perpendicular to the other two vectors

rigid wind
#

what does the question ask

brazen forge
#

But when I compared those other two vectors to each other I got that they aren’t perpendicular or parallel to each other

rigid wind
#

they don't have to

#

they simply belong on a plane in 3D

brazen forge
#

One of the vectors ,
u =< 5, -2, 1>
v = < 2, 3, -4>
w = < 7, 6, 8>
Is perpendicular to the other two. Which is it

brazen forge
#

I got U and V are orthogonal and V and W are orthogonal

#

So I said V is the one perpendicular to the other two

tawdry sphinx
#

yes so you are done right?

rigid wind
#

yeah

brazen forge
#

But I thought that would’ve meant U and W would have to be parallel

rigid wind
#

again

#

means u, w lies on a plane

brazen forge
#

But I thought planes were 2D

rigid wind
#

a 2d plane in 3d you can rotate it around

#

put your pen perpendicular to your notebook

#

it's perpendicular to any line you draws on the notebook

#

doesn't matter if those lines parallel or whatever

brazen forge

?

swift nexus
#

probably a very silly question: I have an amount (say $1500) that I'm going to pay as a loan for 30 years. I originally got $1000 and paid $1500 in 30 years.
How do I calculate the yearly average interest rate of this loan?

ashen blade
#

@swift nexus so you're paying $1500 once a year for 30 years?

#

kind of don't understand how you've worded your question, need some more clarification

swift nexus
#

@ashen blade: No. I'm paying $1500 after a total of 30 years of payment. I'm paying monthly (theoretically, I'm not actually paying anything :D).
I originally got a loan of $1000.
I'm trying to understand how to calculate the annual average interest rate

ashen blade
#

ok

#

original loan is $1000 and you're paying $1500 by the end of 30 years?

swift nexus
#

exactly

ashen blade
#

1 sec

#

1000(1+i/12)^(30*12) = 1500

#

if you're paying interest monthly its like that iirc

#

I know for sure if it's yearly it'd be
1000(1 + i)^30 = 1500 so

#

oh if you want the annual rate just do this one ^

swift nexus
#

how do I get i from that?

ashen blade
#

1000 is your starting amount, 1500 is your ending amount

#

do you know how to calculate compounding amounts normally

#

its lit the formula PV * (1 + i)^n = FV
PV = present value
n = num of years
FV = future value

swift nexus
#

like literally 1(1+ i)^30 = 1500/1000 , how do I extract i

ashen blade
#

its just rearranging that to calculate interest

#

simple math?

#

if there's an exponent to 30 on one side, what do you do?

swift nexus
#

sqrt of 30

ashen blade
#

yeah so

swift nexus
#

or however it's called

ashen blade
#

so its 1 + i = sqr30 of (1500/1000)

#

now what do you do

swift nexus
#

it's the 30th sqrt

#

yeah, thanks! 🙂

ashen blade
#

np

#

gonna post my question here since you're done

#

anybody know how to prove the subspace for the following?

#

{ p ϵ P | p(1) = 0}

#

where P represents the set of all polynomials

alpine sable
#

do you know the conditions for a subspace

ashen blade
#

yup

#

needs to have zero vector / function etc, needs to satisfy closed by addition and closed by scalar multiplication

#

the answer in the book is finding some strange span for it and it's confusing me because there's no explanation about how to do that

alpine sable
#

You are finding that { p ϵ P | p(1) = 0} is a subspace of something? if so what

ashen blade
#

if I do say: let m ϵ P, n ϵ P
and then have m = a0 + a1x = 0
and n = b0 + b1x = 0 I'd just prove it normally? or

alpine sable
#

or that it is itself a subspace

ashen blade
#

P is the vector space of the set of all polynomials

#

I guess I could think of it as a larger subspace

alpine sable
#

Could you post the exact question please

ashen blade
#

it's d)

#

oh it should've been P2 ... guessing it refers to set of all degree 2 polynomials(?)

#

so something in a0 + a1x + a2x^2 form im guessing

alpine sable
#

2 or less

#

so there only three cases (degree 0, 1, and 2)

#

a0 = 0, a1 + a2 = 0, and a1 + a2 + a3 = 0 for degrees 0, 1, and 2 respectively

ashen blade
#

that had me confused too

glass lichen
#

One is bounded degree and one is just that degree

#

Ironically in the opposite order to what I said

ashen blade
#

so for a), I'd only have to prove for some arbitrary polynomial p(x) = a0 + a1x + a2x^2 is a subspace for P?

#

feels like if I can prove degree 2 for (a), wouldn't it mean I could prove the lower degrees are also subspaces by default for (b)?

#

because the set of higher degree polynomials seems to encompass the set of lower degree polynomials

#

like how you can have p(x) = a0 + a1 * x for one and q(x) = a0 + a1 * x + a2 * x^2 for the other

#

or am i just misunderstanding this?

glass lichen
#

Yes, for a you can only have quadratics, but for b you have constant, linear and quadratic polynomials

alpine sable
#

What do the highlighted things mean?

ashen blade
#

thank you for the clarification

ashen blade
alpine sable
#

Yeah

ashen blade
#

although they often don't really clarify things and don't feel that helpful for me personally

alpine sable
#

What textbook is this?

ashen blade
#

it's some dank book only my school seems to use

vague coral
#

send it :o

#

I need a book about linear algebra in english

ashen blade
#

I don't think I have the right to distribute this freely with others, sorry

#

you'd have to be from my school taking the same course

#

okay, I think I'm starting to understand this better

#

and I'll avoid the span method for now because it's still honestly confusing

#

but with a question like https://i.imgur.com/EFqMB8I.png

I only need to prove it is a subspace through the 3 tests normally by accounting for deg 0 ~ 2 (which in turn seem to be proved once I just show that a poly 2 function is always a subspace of P)

#

I'd just create some arbitrary deg 1 polynomial function and set it to 0

ie. a + bx = 0

#

and then do the three tests to prove

#

thanks for the help, blake and mosh!

Hey was wondering if anyone could clarify to me if my answers for this problem to see if it looks ok? was doing them for a while

small bear
#

Expand 3 (x-3)^2 - 4 and see that it doesn't equal 3x^2 - 9x + 5

raw bloom
#

ok

#

Im stuck on it, i expanded it but i dont know what to do from there

small bear
#

We start from 3x^2 - 9x + 5 right

raw bloom
#

yes

small bear
#

A good move is to get the coefficient of x^2 in front of the parenthesis

#

Something like 3(x^2 - 3x) + 5

#

Does that make sense?

raw bloom
#

i see

#

hold on

#

ok yes

#

i have that now

small bear
#

Great, now you need to complete the square inside the parenthesis, do you know how to do that?

raw bloom
#

i think so let me try

sudden garden
#

if the perimeter of the parallelogram ABCD is 52cm^2 find its area. i want the method how to find the area when the perimeter is given.

small bear
raw bloom
#

would i have to take half of 3 then?

small bear
#

yup

raw bloom
#

if i was completing the square

#

ok

#

ok so i have so far 3(x+1 and a half)^2-2 and a quarter+5

#

looking good so far?

small bear
#

You skipped a couple of steps, let's go step by step

raw bloom
#

ok

small bear
#

which number do you have to add and subtract to get a perfect square?

#

(sometimes referred to as the magic number)

raw bloom
#

-3?

small bear
#

Nope, we have x^2 - 3x and we would need (-3/2)^2

ocean sealBOT
#

peaceGiant

raw bloom
#

arent we suppose to half the that number though?

#

im sorry

small bear
#

Yes, that number is -3, half of -3/2 is that, and then we need to square it

alpine sable
#

6859 how about not being rude for no reason

raw bloom
#

Wait so

#

You told me tto expand first

#

i did that

small bear
#

This isn't the channel for you then, read the #rules

raw bloom
#

and i had 3(x^2-9x)+5

small bear
#

not 9

raw bloom
#

yes

small bear
#

Alright, so when we have the following given A^2 + 2AB + B^2
and we know what A is, we can figure out B which is our magic* number

#

please stop flooding the channel

amber urchin
#

Imagine if that worked lol

raw bloom
#

so B is then -3

wary stream
#

Stop

glass lichen
#

At least he pinged mods himself

raw bloom
#

im sorry @small bear would it be possible to do this in dm's?

#

these people are spamming

glass lichen
#

<@&268886789983436800> apologises for 2nd ping

How to find P value for 2.06

short pumice
#

Heyy can anybody help me with this ?

harsh belfry
#

I've been working on this for a little while now,

#

My equation for s(t) is

#

What I was assuming I could do is plug in my values into the following equation

wary stream
wary stream
harsh belfry
#

👍

short pumice
harsh belfry
#

Im assuming that the final velocity would be 0, we are calculating for v_o, and a = to the acceleration, and h would be 3.

harsh belfry
wary stream
harsh belfry
#

Ah would it be 220 here?

wary stream
#

Nope

harsh belfry
#

Hm

wary stream
#

I think having it like this would be better $$v^2 = v_{0}^2 +2a \Delta x$$

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

harsh belfry
#

If this is the case how would I calculate for my change in x?

silver current
#

read the question again

wary stream
#

$$\Delta x = x_f - x_i$$

ocean sealBOT
#

dldh06

silver current
#

first writing down the given things helps

#

then execute them

harsh belfry
#

ah so if its xfinal - x ininital

#

then if my final destination - the initial of 3

#

then 220-3

wary stream
#

Yes

harsh belfry
#

Thanks

harsh belfry
# wary stream Yes

I appreciate the help here dldh. @silver current Haha, yeah I don't know why it didnt compute that if its being thrown from 3ft high that it wouldnt be included in h.

#

Thanks again.

#

Hey does anybody know the answer for this ?

snow wraith
#

Can anyone help?

oak chasm
#

@snow wraith When you prove two things are congruent by saying that some things are the same in them, you need to know that those things are the same in them.

#

Hypotenuse-Leg means the hypotenuse is the same length in both triangles.

#

And a leg is the same length in both triangles.

#

Does that make sense?

snow wraith
#

Yeah

oak chasm
#

OK, so what is marked on the diagram as the same in both triangles?

snow wraith
#

the angles that make them congruent?

proven flare
#

Guys is this channel free/

#

*?

oak chasm
#

@snow wraith The right angle in each and a leg in each, right?

#

@proven flare No, sorry.

proven flare
oak chasm
#

One leg in each is marked with a dash, right?

#

@snow wraith See the red line there across the leg?

snow wraith
#

Yes

oak chasm
#

The same number of lines is across the leg in the other triangle.

#

Since you have the same markings on both legs, they're the same length.

#

That's how they mark lengths the same.

#

So, we have a leg the same in both.

#

We have the right angle the same in both.

#

But they said Hypotenuse-Leg.

#

We don't know that the hypotenuse is the same in both.

#

The hypotenuses aren't marked as the same length.

#

Does that make sense?

snow wraith
#

Ye-ye

oak chasm
#

So, Hypotenuse-Leg is wrong since we don't know that the hypotenuses in both are the same and one leg in both are the same.

#

We can't use Hypotenuse-Leg because of that.

#

Does that make sense?

snow wraith
#

understanding it

#

yeah

oak chasm
#

OK, do you know how to answer the question?

snow wraith
#

Yep! Thank you for the help

oak chasm
#

You're welcome.

wary stream
#

I feel like this is just a horrible question but just find the odd one out

#

I told you what to do

#

Find the odd one out

pine mural
#

easier said than done

charred flint
#

@pine mural there are multiple answers, just pick one and give a math-y reason

pine mural
#

how do i do that?

charred flint
#

you have to be creative, notice something special about one of them

#

anything will do

harsh belfry
pine mural
#

yeah i was just about to say that

harsh belfry
#

👍

pine mural
harsh belfry
#

I don't think this should be too crazy difficult considering you know the answer.

#

You could write the intervals for each graph and state that the bottom right one is not infinite in either direction.

#

I don't know what your requirements are.

#

@pine mural

pine mural
harsh belfry
#

Vegeta I'm not going to do your work for you buddy.

#

If it was up to me I would start off by writing the graphs out in interval notation. Then I would state that the observation was that the bottom right one was non-continuous in either direction.

#

If you need help writing it in interval notation feel free to ask.

pine mural
harsh belfry
#

Alright, but you know what to do now.

#

Do you have any other questions?

pine mural
#

im good

#

thank u

#

😄

harsh belfry
#

👍

#

I've been trying my best at this question for a good bit and I'm wondering if I went about it incorrectly.

#

I started off with finding the derivative of the function s(t)

#

s'(t) =

#

I plugged in the given value of 12 seconds into the expression and solved for velocity.

#

v=-18.2

#

I then plugged in the velocity into the following equation and solved for the pos.

#

I solved for s which was 133.4

#

I believe this should be correct.

#

And the velocity at impact would indeed be -18.2.

#

But It seems it's incorrect

#

Ideas?

modest yew
#

so idk if i'm the best person to help with this as i'm actually taking what appears to be the same level of physics as you are

#

but i'm pretty sure you just went about it the wrong way

#

you need to find initial height first.

modest yew
#

oh lmao

harsh belfry
#

is the equation I am working with right now.

#

Not sure if that looks familiar to you

#

(my gravity constant is different for the moon obviously)

modest yew
#

is s0 initial speed?

harsh belfry
#

That would be the initial position

#

v_0 would be the initial velocity.

#

and -0.8 I believe is the gravity on the moon.

modest yew
#

no

#

thats the mistake i think

#

-1.6 m/s/s is the gravity

#

its acceleration yeah, but thats also the force of gravity

harsh belfry
#

Ah I was judging it off of this value.

modest yew
#

hang on

#

im gonna solve it on my own real quick

harsh belfry
#

Alright.

#

I'll try it again with a value of -1.6 acting as G

#

Only reason I think the gravity would be 0.8t^2 is that it's derivative is 1.6t

#

And it's second derivative (acceleration) is 1.6

modest yew
#

but...

#

yep thats the mistake

#

ok

#

so

#

gravity is acceleration

#

it is not velocity

#

when you drop a ball it accelerates towards the earth

harsh belfry
#

s(t)=position
s'(t)=velocity
s"(t)=acceleration

#

I'm not sure if theres a disconnect in the wording here.

#

I haven't done physics before actually.

modest yew
#

hmm

#

i'm not sure how to explain this actually

harsh belfry
#

I was given s"(t) so i reversed it to find the previous value.

modest yew
#

i solved it, maybe it would help for youto take a look?

harsh belfry
#

Yeah sure.

modest yew
#

you're like 90% of the way there so i feel fine showing u

#

ok

harsh belfry
#

.rotate

#

I forgot the command to use here lmao.

#

Time to tilt my head.

modest yew
#

lol sounds about right

charred flint
#

,rotate ccw

ocean sealBOT
modest yew
#

thanks!!

harsh belfry
#

👍 thanks

#

hmm even if this is the correct answer I would have to find the answer utilizing the equations given to me.

modest yew
#

it is the same equation

#

h0 is equal to s0

#

at least i'm pretty sure*

harsh belfry
#

To make sure your calculated height it feel until impact was 320.

#

And the velocity at impact was?

modest yew
#

yeah thats my best guess at least

#

didnt get that far yet

#

can you explain your thought process for the velocity question? then ill take a look

#

sorry @dull harness ! try a different channel

#

<@&268886789983436800>

sly mantle
#

b&

harsh belfry
#

(I took a screenshot in case they deleted their own post)

#

It's a bit difficult to explain my thought process being that I am new to the subject.

modest yew
#

quick thinking! you got this calculus stuff :)))

#

yeah no worries i totally get it

#

(and same)

harsh belfry
#

I believe mathematically I should be correct here but I'm assuming I muddled up one of my variables somewhere.

modest yew
#

what formula were you given for this question?

harsh belfry
#

Finding the original eq right now. Second.

#

Then I was given the method to find the derivative for that same equation.

#

The first derivative gives me the velocity, the second gives the acceleration.

modest yew
#

so the equation you just posted

#

what is that meant to be equal to?

#

like whats s(t)

harsh belfry
#

s(t) is the position, (sorry should have said)

modest yew
#

no worries

harsh belfry
#

so heres why I came to the conclusion that the gravity was -0.8

#

They give us the acceleration. (which is the second derivative)

#

-1.6

#

the first derivative of that would be
-1.6t+1

#

and if we took one more step back

#

we would have
-0.8t^2+(rest of the original equation)

modest yew
#

OHHHH

#

ok

#

yesssss i see what you're thinking

#

alrighty

harsh belfry
#

Is this the correct thought process though? haha

modest yew
#

kind of

#

so the most recent equation you posted

#

the original

#

you do not take the derivative of that to find the first answer. the one where i got 320. all you do is use that pure formula.

#

now for the second part, you do need to take a derivative

harsh belfry
#

I simplified it to just

#

for the sake of being able to find the first derivative

modest yew
#

ahhhh there it is

#

v0*t

#

can be written as v0t

#

and the derivative of that is what

harsh belfry
#

The derivative of this expression (cant include time yet)

#

is...

#

-0.8*the exponent, then minus the exponent by one

#

-0.8*2 then 2-1

high crest
#

Is v0 = 1 then? 😕

harsh belfry
#

hmmm

#

Wait kex I think you helped me out alot there.

#

We dont know the velocity

#

therefore I cant find the derivative

modest yew
#

we do

#

v0 is initial velocity

harsh belfry
#

0

modest yew
#

and we know initital velocity

#

yessir

harsh belfry
#

ahh wait

modest yew
#

or ma'am

harsh belfry
#

0*1=0

#

so my first derivative is actually!!!

#

No wonder

modest yew
#

@high crest ur so smart

#

that actually fixed everything

harsh belfry
#

-19.2 is my actual velocity!!!!!

modest yew
#

oh also

#

i just noticed

#

for question 1

#

i solved using 20 instead of 12 as time

#

so 320 def isnt right

#

sorry about that

harsh belfry
#

I noticed that dont worry

#

I decided to not mention it lol

modest yew
#

oh ok good lol

#

yeah i was just thinking about it and i was ike hmmm thats a weird number to get

harsh belfry
#

if I set this equal to 0 and solve for s then It should work

#

Unfortunately my positon is incorrect haha

#

but velocity is right

modest yew
#

hey good job on the second

#

yeahhh hmm

harsh belfry
#

Thank kex.

modest yew
#

thats probably my bad

#

im not sure then...

harsh belfry
#

how far did it fall... idk

modest yew
#

115.2???

#

wait wait

#

i think thats it

harsh belfry
#

wait

#

how did you get that

modest yew
#

one seccc

#

think i screwed up my signs at the end

#

AH

#

you used

#

final velocity

#

instead of initial velocity

#

initial velocity is 0

harsh belfry
#

OHHH
IM AN IDIOT

dang we really covered all the bases

candid atlas
#

guys

#

can someone tell me how the fuck this is wrong

#

lmao

modest yew
#

great teamwork

candid atlas
#

it says its wrong

#

why

harsh belfry
modest yew
#

and... life goes on. see y'all next time

candid atlas
#

yo

harsh belfry
#

See ya dude, nice to meet you lol

candid atlas
#

how is that wrong?

modest yew
#

ya you too mate

#

right lets see what we got here

#

how did you try to solve it?

candid atlas
#

1/80 + 1/70 = 1/x

#

LCD is 560

#

so

#

7/560 + 8/560 = 1/x

#

that is 15/560

#

take the reciprocal

#

you get 37.3 minutes

#

convert that to seconds

#

2238

modest yew
#

alright

#

give me a minute to attempt it myself

#

something must be wrong but the logic sounds right

candid atlas
#

oh

modest yew
#

nah thtats right

#

try rounding??

candid atlas
#

lol

#

37.33

modest yew
#

oh nice

#

thank god i was questioning my sanity

candid atlas
#

it still says its wrong

#

LOL

modest yew
#

try flat 37?

candid atlas
#

oh

#

yea

#

37 works

#

lmfao

modest yew
#

...

#

software is dumb sometimes

candid atlas
#

now why does it say 2220 seconds is wrong

#

lmao

#

wtf

modest yew
#

try

#

2240

#

just a hunch

#

@candid atlas

candid atlas
#

oooh

#

lol

#

nvm

#

its 37 minutes AND 20 seconds

#

lmfao
