for the blue line
is the slope for every 1 drop the conductivity increases by 111 µS?
sorry my handwriting is bad I can clarify anything
but the equation for the blue line is 96.7x+4200
so how did I get 111 since the slope is 96.7x
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
yeah, that's a question for yourself, how did you get 111mu S in the first place?
then again 111 and 96.7 are pretty close
my bad the problem was the grid was too small so I couldn't tell exactly what the numbers were

how do i find x_0 such that theres less than a 10% chance of X<0 ?
what do you mean "such that X>0"?
sorry my finger slipped on the enter key
it's a normal distribution, right?
yep, sorry about that, shouldve mentionewd i edited the original message
uhhhh, should i know what a z score is?
oh its just how many standard deviations away from the mean a point is?
in that case, a z score of 0 would be 16
0 would be 16 standard deviations away from the mean?
16 is 0 standard deviations away
oh wait, it's the other way around
wait a minute no
it's $x_0+2$ with a z-score of 0
Element118
yeah there's something to do with inverse normal
oh! woops yes i confused the parameters together
yes x_0 + 2 has a z score of 0
ok so i am looking for Pr(X =< x_0) < 10
right?
wait but Pr(any event) < 10
0.1*
keep making silly mistakes
ive never dealt with inverse normal, would I just integrate the pdf for the normal distribution then use that to work out x_0?
i think i can integrate it if i change it to polar coordinates since it looks to me like the normal is of the form e^-x^2
maybe theres some bs in statistics that doesnt allow me to do that but i see nothing wrong with that approach?
you can't integrate it with elementary functions
the CDF can be looked up on a table
typically
so you can find the z-score of various values
whaaaaaaat, something so intrinsic in stats doesnt have a nice antiderivative??? O.O
man, im beat, i have no clue how to find x_0 here
Try finding what z score corresponds to a probability of 0.1
what are you struggling with...?
have you done an integral before?
it's the integral of x dx
coefficient but yeah.. it's just x^2/(4sqrt(3))
oh, cause it wasn't your channel...

Help
use a calculator...
,w calculate (456)^2
yes
no
maybe so
what
it's correct.
no, 1 millions is not 10^5
wdym
if it's correct, I want my old world back
so, like I said, yes it's correct.
lmao
207936 = 2.07936 x 100000 = 2.07936 x 10^5
1 91/125
dont need echos btw
,w calculate (1.2)^3
that's it
is my answer right it's 1.2³ = 1 91/125, 1728, (6/3)³
Because scientific Notations or smth
I have... no clue what you're trying to say in your answer
why the fuck do you have a random (6/3)^3?
Basically it's only 1738
That .. is not scientific notation
??
1.728*
1.728 in scientific notation is 1.728
yeah I know
and scientific notation is only used when needed, how can you further simplify 1.728 ?
so what are you saying with the nonsense that is 1 91/125, 1728, 2^3?
sure you can write 17.28 x 10^-1 but that's useless lmao

Photomath on crack
that's also not SN.
So it's 1.728
ight
in Physics we sometimes use this to include helpful prefixes
sure it's not
#4 0.1024
#5. 5⁸
@glass lichen My answer for 4 and 5
5's clearly wrong.
and in SN the number needs to be b/w 1 and 10.
so 4's also wrong
@glass lichen so 0.1024 is wrong?
Said that, yes.
I thought it was the answer
it's not in proper SN
How is it supposed to be
check your notes for the rules of SN.

Can someone quickly explain this
you add pi to it to do a 180 turn
you just add pi
So this dosent have a thing to do with Sin(x) being the same with Sin(pi-x)

For $k \neq 0$, find the value of $k$ such that $f(x) = kx^4 -2k^3x^2$ has a local maximum at $x = 1$.
KaiML

I found the derivative of f(x) , but I'm not sure where to go from there
You'd want that derivative to have a zero at 1
derivative of f(x) being 4kx(x^2-k^2)
it has 2 properties
f’’(x) must be greater than 0 at x = 1
i think that’s how it works, don’t remember for sure
if you just use the first derivative you don’t know if it’s a minimum or maximum

Shouldn't it be less? because greater means concave up right?
less than 0
oof
Oh ok
oh yeah i thought they said minimum oops
So, I need to find second derivative. Give me a second while I do that
A second has been given
huh
oof
yes
So I need k to be something so that f'' is less than 0 at x=1, so maybe I sub in x=1?
yes
12k-4k^3,
I'd prob start with the first derivative
oh yeah
Since it's more specific rather than less
Ok lemme do that
It'll give you exact values to check with the second derivative
you want f" to be negative at x=1
because that would imply
the derivative function decreased to 0 (meaning your function was increasing 👀)
4k(1-k^2)
if that makes sense
Yea I get that
my brain can’t comprehend lol
So I ignore this rite
4k - 4k^3 = 0
and then
k=k^3
?
then k=1...
or -1
so then we check f'' right?
there is one more answer
0?
but your condition is k not 0 so works out

@vale hill Has your question been resolved?
How many people from P haven't submitted a response?
You seem to be adding all the nonsubmitters to Ps who travel by car.
But you can't add any Q nonsubmitters to Ps who travel by car because they're not Ps at all, so they can't be Ps who travel by car.
34 + 12 + 29 = 75 Ps have submitted a response. 94 - 75 = 19 Ps haven't submitted a response yet.
Those Ps can be added to Ps who travel by car to get 12 + 19 = 31 Ps who travel by car.
Then there would be 31 Ps who travel by car and 21 Qs who travel by car, so 21/(31 + 21) = 21/52.

You must learn about functions, the x is probably the input u must give
if the problem doesn't specify the input, then you can usually test the function with simple inputs like -2, -1, 0, 1 and 2
that simply means they do the same thing but has a different name which are the f and g letters
for example f(x)=1+5x and g(x)=1+5x
the input which is (x)
you put a simple number like I mentioned above -2 -1 0 1 2
if I put -1 into the function it becomes f(-1)=1+5*(-1)
so that means the function takes -1 input and turns it into 1+5*(-1)= -4
you can graph it too
do you know how to graph x and y
function is just a fancy word
1+5x
input which is the number you give it
it can be any number
f(x) = 1 + 5x
isn't really something you "solve"

Hello
I have a simple function R -> R, x -> x²
how can I test if it's surjective?
this must be really simple but I can't see it
I tried writing down f(x) = x² but then got no further
.close
Closed by @raven girder
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
@raven girder A function is surjective when its codomain = range. Here you can see that the codomain consists of all real numbers >= 0 but the range is R and so it isn't surjective.
Or take some y value in R for which there does not exist an x value in R, for example y = -3 which gives us -3 = x^2

Hello, wtf do you want ?
please be respectful
Sorry brah

<@&286206848099549185>
uhh lemme try
thx
then?
I find more than the numbers in the options
i'm literally studying this today
lmao
! is a factorial, basically multiplying it by any value below the number you give it
n is the total number, let's say students
r is the amount of groups of that number there are
so like let's say 19 students and you want to find out how many pairs of 2 you can make
2 is r, 19 is n and ! is factorial
just plug it into ur calculator and shabang
“Multiplying” by ! is wrong language and a bad way to think about this
It’s like saying sin(x) is sin times x
For n in N, n! := n(n-1)...(2)(1)
With 0!=1
i am trying to solve this question with this equation but i think i am getting something wrong because i am finding very hign value numbers
idk man, just try and logic check as much of it as you can, try doing it again fresh, if you still get the same result it’s likely either right or you’ve missed something
Are u trying to spell a racist word?
??
Say you have 15 students and want to discover how many pairs you can make with them. “r” will be 2 and “n” will be 15, then apply it to the formula and you’re done
15! Would be (15 x 14 x 13 … 2 x 1) for example
ok i got it
Find the general solution to the following differential equation. I tried making a substitution of v = H/p but it didn't work. I am unsure what to do lol
Oh woops i didn't realise this is occupied uhhhhhh i hope you finished it
I have a question
so i understand that there's 32 possibilities
now i could just write out all 32 possibilities and then count the ones that fit
but i want to understand the systematic approach to this
Well, picture the sequence of coin tosses
That has an order
(H,H,H,T,T) fits the bill just as well (H,T,T,H,H)
And then notice that the only thing that uniquely characterizes these two sequences is the position of the "heads" throws
So, the number of ways to get exactly three heads is the number of ways to choose three spots for each "heads" where the order of the heads doesn't matter
In the general case, this is called a binomial coefficient
written $n \choose k$
Syst3ms
and pronouned "n choose k"
And n choose k is precisely the number of ways to choose k elements from a set with n elements, where order doesn't matter
In this case you may conceptualize it as choosing 3 elements from the set of all positions (1 through 5)
So in your case the number of ways to do that is 5 choose 3, which equals 10
5 choose 3
but uuuhh, hang on
let me try to grab this
as in understand
ok yes, i understand this bit.
so for the second answer, i could add up 5 choose 3, 5 choose 4, 5 choose 5?
what i don't understand is... if i write 5 choose 3... what number does that become?
is that a fraction, or?
,w calculate 5 choose 3
i mean, i'd have trouble picturing a fractional number of ways to choose elements from a set
KEK
,w calculate 5 choose 3
well thank god for the internet, but how would i calculate that "by hand" ?
there is a formula but i want to give the intuition for it
$\binom{n}{r} :=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$
Mosh
my math teacher considers this a sin more or less
it hides the nature of the number a bit
anyway
say you want to choose r elements from a set with n elements
so great - this formula is not in the theory i have to cover to answer these questions... it's later
For the first element, you have n choices. For the second one, you only have n-1 options left. For the third one, n-2... For the r-th one, n-r+1 choices
So the total number of ways to arrange things is n(n-1)...(n-r+1)
However, in the definition we said that we didn't want to worry about the order
Which we do here
Since we choose each thing in order
So we have to divide by the amount of ways to order r elements, and that's precisely r!
So, the "true" formula is ${n \choose r} = \frac{n(n-1)(n-2)\cdots(n-r+1)}{r!}$
Syst3ms
But it turns out the numerator can be written as n!/(n-r)!
but that's a copout >:(
i'm slightly joking
yeah so this is the first time seeing this... man i think our lecturer might just hate our guts
because he surely doesn't respect our time
if you didn't know that, then well, get to writing the 32 possibilities
hahaha yeah i am absolutely not doing that
but this is the way you would avoid doing that
thanks for showing me this
because i was looking at what the teacher is covering in the next class and this is not part of it
so they either made a mistake or want us to count all possibilities by hand

Hi, I'm trying to solve this problem: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/3369782/sup-1-a-1-inf-a-for-inf-a-0 , but I didn't really get the guy's answer.
I don't really get the epsilon --> 0+ part, but anyway, I would like to solve it without it because I didn't learn about it in class.
After successfully proving that 1/inf(A) is a higher bound of 1/A I'm stuck at proving that it's the supremum. I tried to use the fact that there's an x in A s.t. x > inf(a) + epsilon but without success.

Solve this equation
?
@alpine sable post on a new channel plz…
Which one
What?
Hmm thanks, I can't access that channel though
why…
You have to get the advanced role
how do you change the equation you see, x^2-2x-3, to x^2-3x-2
this'll be related to a line
how is this not 0
why is 0
cuz if u plug in 0 u get 0^0 which is 0
also when i graph the function it approaches 0 from the right
It doesn't approach 0 from the right.
Do it algebraically.
0^0 is like 0/0, basically a tell that you haven't solved the limit yet
ok i will but it is 1 right
yeah
beyond that, it could equal quite literally anything
finding examples of it approaching anything in existence is quite interesting i'll admit

Is this a valid proof? If f(x) = 1 if x is in the cantor set and f(x) = 0 if x is not in the cantor set, I want to show the integral from 0 to 1 of f is 0. Let f_n(x) = 1 if x is in c_n and 0 if x is not, where c_n is the sets in the construction of the cantor set, like for example c_2 = [0, 1/9] ∪ [2/9, 1/3] ∪ [2/3, 7/9] ∪ [8/9, 1]. Notice the integral from 0 to 1 of f_n(x) = (2/3)^n. Since f_n(x) >= f(x) for all natural numbers n and x in [0, 1], the integral from 0 to 1 of f_n is greater than or equal to the integral from 0 to 1 of f. The limit of the sequence integral from 0 to 1 of f_n is 0 because (2/3)^n goes to 0, and then by the order limit theorem the integral from 0 to 1 of f is less than or equal to 0. Since f(x) is always positive, the integral is greater than or equal to 0, which implies the integral equals 0. I'm unsure if this is valid because I'm assuming f is integrable, but it might still be valid because the proof might show f is integrable.

Hello, can anybody help me with this problem? It wants me to solve for the values for [0,2pi]. The only thing I understood from my teacher is that your supposed to get cosine by itself and refer to the unit circle to find the values.
try setting cos(x) to a variable like y, then solving the resulting quadratic. then sub cos(x) back in for y and solve for x

Quick question to help my understanding. Working on standard form to vertex form questions by completing the square. If I have say: y=x^2-8x+17 the b, (8) that I am diving by 2 is a -8 in this case? But since it becomes (-4)^2, it turns out positive?
@molten jewel Has your question been resolved?
So it's -8/2 = (-4)^2 = +16, correct?
Yup

how do i found an asymptote of a hyperbola ? like for examle
y = 4/x + 3
what would the asymptote be and how do i identify that
You'd want to know things about 1/x, then apply transformations onto it
,w graph 1/x
what does that mean lol
And x cant be 0 again, but you would move the graph 3 units up
Good call, you're right
right so would the asymptote be y = 3 ?
So if at x0 for example f(x)=y, by stretching it would be f(x)=4y
x0-as in index
With those transformations in mind, the y = 0 asymptote becomes y = 3.
The x = 0 asymptote stays as x = 0
Ye
It dont
well the equation i gave was just an example im trying to understand how to identify and asymptote bc i have an exam coming u
so the y axis asmyptote is determined by the constant on the end
and the x axis asmyptote never changes?
ohh
unless
y = 3 / (x - 2 ) + 4
asymptotes:
y = 4
x = 2
is that right

A sensor node uses a radio (IEEE 802.15.4) that consumes 25 mA when transmitting or receiving. Assume that the battery holds a maximum of 2500 mAh with a required voltage level. The radio transmission speed is 250 kb / s. In practice, the radio is active during 4% of the time (duty cycle 4%), ie. the transmission speed is 10 kb / s on average. During the time the radio is idle, it is assumed that the energy consumption is approximately zero. Given these conditions calculate: After how long time does the battery need to be recharged?
I would tell you what I calculated, but I think you would laugh
I think this is more of a physics question but idk
I got it to like 100 hours using thishttps://www.digikey.com/en/resources/conversion-calculators/conversion-calculator-battery-life
DigiKey's battery life calculator uses battery capacity (mAh) and device consumption (mA) to caclulate estimated hours of battery life.
but since it is just 4% active it's actually 2500 hours
I think the reason it holds so long is because it is just a transmitter receiver sensor node (what is sensor about it) that is attached to a battery, no phone running any calculations or anything
@pearl jetty Has your question been resolved?
im confused what do u mean?
. . .
@pearl jetty Has your question been resolved?
From a purely mathematical perspective these are the only useful information:
- The radio comsumes 25 mA
- The battery holds 2500mAh
- The radio is active during 4% of the time
All the other things are redundant.
So you first calculate how long it lasts if it's active 100% of the time
2500/25=100 hours
And then divide that by 4%
100/0.04=2500 hours
And if it is not the answer, please seek help in a…whatever field the problem is from…server
I derived 2500H too
Is that wrong?
I can't say since I don't know, but it was the same as I came up with
I do have a second question to this one
If the transmission speed or the standard it's using are irrelavent to energy consumption, then it should be 2500h
yeah
How many bytes can be transferred from the sensor node, e.g. to a mobile phone, during a battery life if we assume that the sensor node only transmits and does not receive data?
I derived it to 450 GB
It transmits 10kb/s on average as given, so in 2500 hours, which is 2500*3600=9*10^6 seconds, it should be able to transmit 9*10^6*10=9*10^7kb of data
So if I have not mistaken, you multiply kb by 8 to get KB?
and then you divide 1024 for GB, I think?
8 bit = 1 Byte
Kilo1000 is mega and 1000mega is giga
Mb = megabit and MB = megabyte
Ehh?
The speed is given as kb/s so it's in kilobits
You have to multiply them by 8 to get Kilobyte isn't it
The megabyte is a multiple of the unit byte for digital information. Its recommended unit symbol is MB. The unit prefix mega is a multiplier of 1000000 (106) in the International System of Units (SI). Therefore, one megabyte is one million bytes of information. This definition has been incorporated into the International System of Quantities.
H...
yeah
wait
divide kilobits by eight to get kilobytes
Yes
80 kb = 10 KB
It's common to mix up the basic arithmetics so don't worry
And I'm 3 years into my computer science major
Which is embarrassing
you are also using 2500 H when it should be 100H
since the radio is transmitting at all times
it would run out after 100 hours
so 100 H x 3600s x 10 000kb/s (or 1250KB/s if divided by eight) = 450 GB

help, mainly asking for the third question
It asked for a real root and I have no idea how to get it
In another word im not sure if i did it correctly
do you mean for (iii)
yes
it's incorrect for (b) and (c)
right then how do i solve it
If it's asking for real roots, you can just look at how many times the curve crosses the x axis
you're correct for ii
for the number of x intercepts
ii and iii are asking the same thing
I kinda dont understand
pan4 bie2 shi
you need the equation or the graph
if you have the equation, you can calculate it
the b^2 4ac thing?
and if it is >0, then 2 real roots
yes
if = 0 then 1 real root,
if <0 then no real roots
ah alright thanks
yup np

In what circumstances is equation (2) useful over equation (1) for solving the top optimisation problem
also just realised I'm missing an inverse sign on the inner bracket of (2)
oops we posted at the same time
if it helps, R is upper triangular as we are looking at the QR factorisation
One idea: For lambda sufficiently large, equation 2 allows us to ignore the term after the minus sign

How can I solve this without L'Hopital's?
@odd obsidian Has your question been resolved?
interesting question, I can't figure it out yet but wondering what you have tried?
Multiply by the conjugate of the numerator
On the top and bottom of course
does that work with cube roots?
I've tried that... it doesn't seem to work
I've tried just factoring it out, using the conjugate
Are you using the congujate or cbrt()+2?
That's not the conjugate in difference of cubes
Whats difference of cube factorization
oh! is it (a-b)(a^2+2ab+b^2)?
Yes.
= (a^3-b^3)
Sorry, what does that mean?
the 2nd factor being the conjugate
as in, how would that work?
ohhhhhh makes sense now
You multiply top and bottom by the congujate
ah so I multiply by a^2+ab+b^2?
Yes.
I see. That makes a lot of sense. Thank you!!
Okay, so I did that, but I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do past this
Simplify
(2-x)/(x-2)=?
Ah right oops! My mistake, yeah it's plus 8
But then I still think I'm doing something wrong since it's supposed to be -1/12 but I'm getting -1/16
I'm not sure, I think I may have messed up the factorization
But thank you very much!!

need help
Answer is 7.
uploading
wait
Yes
I don't know how to solve this
what do they mean with points and how to solve it?
I got this equation after taking the derivate with respect to time
but what to do farther what do they mean with points?
points will just be spots on the x-y graph
you have the right first step, now you want that equation to become dx/dt=2dy/dt
although maybe it's a trick question because x^2+y^2-2x=-1 is a really weird graph
the graph is just the point (1,0) lol
?!
feels like a mistake in the question, but let's pretend it's a nice function that actually has a shape lmao
Yeah I think it's a mistake
you have 2xdx/dt + 2ydy/dt - 2dx/dt=0
Yes
and want the condition dx/dt=2dy/dt
right so only a few values of x and y will satisfy the condition
and those values are your points
so moving dx stuff to one side and dy stuff to another
(2x-2) dx/dt = (2y) dy/dt
Yes
and the condition says 2x-2=1, 2y=2
(2x-2) dx/dt = (2y) dy/dt
dx/dt = 2 dy/dt
I'm just matching the numbers in front of the dx and dy
alright cool
so If I got more than 1 x or more than 1 y that's mean I have multiple points
But because all the variable I have now is to the first power I only have 1 point right?
right
x1 = the first value of x
and y1 is the first value of y
and the same goes to number 2

But there's deep relations to integrals and the video gives an intuition for why that is
