anyone knows
if i got 2 equations
and they want me to find the range
0<m(x)<10
cuz i got 2 equation
first 1 is m(x)=3p-5/3
and n(x)=1/2x+5/6
any clues to get the range?
m(x) = 3p - 5/3 ?
should i draw a graph and find out how?
Range of what tho? you gave 2 different functions
wait
For each of them?
ill show u
i cant continue write the questions
m(x) is ....
0<m(x)<10
Okay so we have to solve 0 < m(x) < 10
By plugging in the expression of m(x)
0 < (3x - 5)/3 < 10
owh
And this will be domain of n as far as I understand
"Define domain for n(x) when range for m(x) is ..." is this the question word by word?
Is there any relation between m(x) and n(x)?
Oh
the question actually need the p and q from the equation
So
and i solved them
Domain of n is the same as range of m
And range of m is (0, 10)
So domain of n is (0, 10) as well
Because they're inverses
i dont rlly
Thus n is defined for 0 < x < 10
understand
Which part
this
and the rest
that u just said
So n is inverse of m, right?
yes
So if m: A -> B, then n: B -> A
yes
So if we know range of m, we also know domain of n
yes
And we're also given that 0 < m(x) < 10
yes
So the range (of m), B, is (0, 10)
0 < x < 10 means that x is in the interval (0, 10)
Part of the real number line
In this case, it's the segment of numbers between 0 and 10

the number of pupils in a school decreases by 4% each year. Find the period of time, in years, when the number of pupils in the school becomes less than 1/3 of its original number
can someone help me with this question
its about arithmetic or geometric progression
@jaunty crane Has your question been resolved?
Geometric
Hint: Let the number of pupils in the school initially be x. Then the next year, the number of pupils remaining would be $x - 4%, \text{of}, x$. The year after that, this number would reduce to $(x - 4% , \text{of} , x) - 4% , \text{of} , ((x - 4% ,\text{of} ,x))$ and so on...
Ansh
It's sort of like compound interest if you know that
Write number of pupils remaining in school after n year as $x_n$, then you have $x_n = x_{n-1} - \frac{4}{100}x_{n-1}$
Ansh
You're subtracting 4% of it, then the next year, you're again subtracting 4% from the previous result
you can follow the same notion as from here
For example, 100 -> 96 -> 92.16

A plane started a journey of 2500 miles at 2:00 pm and arrived at its destination at 7:30 pm.
Show that there are at least two times during the flight when the plane's speed
went 400 miles per hour
I can help you with this
:0
Though i dont know about lagrange, I would have to take some time to look into that first 😦
essentially we know that the flight took 5 hrs 30 minutes, or 5.5 hrs
and 2500 miles / 5.5 is 454.54 mph is the average velocity of the plane if it stayed at its avg velocity the whole time. So the plane for sure has to go faster than 400 miles per hour (thus 400 is not the max velocity and occurs twice)
but isnt asking to show 2 instants where it reached 400 miles?
The above statement just proves beyond a doubt it has to reach 400 twice
consider what a plane does irl when it travels between locations
yeah it makes sense, i can only get a instant velocity when they give me a function right?
you could create a velocity function from the distance function via derivation but you'd need to know more than just (X, X0, and T) or else you'd simply be making an avg velocity function
exaclly so it gets a little confusing
Do they give you more information like the acceleration at take off and landing?
then they simple want you to use the concept of average velocity (change v / change t) to prove the plane must have a peak velocity faster than 400 mph ( and we know then that that value would have to occur twice when they sped up and slowed down)
some of this exercices are time consuming to understand and i cant use calculator so its messed up
let me know if your having trouble with any others, I'm doing a mechanical engineering degree so this is right up my alley lmao
im doing the same
Heck ye
What course are you taking?
aircraft engineering
dang haven't taken that yet 😦
can you jump on voice?
not right now cause I'm in the library, but ill add you as a friend
okok
2500/5,5=454
And you cant get an average of above 454 if you never get 454
And it has to be at least 2 because it is accelerating to above 400 so it hits 400 and it has to stop so it will hit 400 again
Oh the question was already answered
yeah, but thanks !

i have a problem
find the numbers a, b, g so that each of the following equations is true for every real number x
- x²=a(x-1)²+b(x-1)+g
- 19x²+11x+5=(a+2ab)+(b+3g)x-(2b+5g)x²
i cant find the numbers
You can make the equations true for every number x by making the coefficients on LHS and RHS equal
For example in the first one we have x^2 = a(x^2 - 2x + 1) + b(x - 1) + g
Expanding the brackets yields x^2 = ax^2 - 2ax + 1 + bx - b + g
x^2 = ax^2 + x(b - 2a) + 1 - b + g
Alright
So here
Coefficient of x^2 on LHS is 1 and on RHS is a, right?
yes
So they should be equal
a = 1
Because we need coefficients to be equal
Now let's do coefficients of x
On LHS there no term x by itself, so it's 0
And on RHS coefficient of x is b - 2a, which also is b - 2 as we just found out
So what would be the value of b?
2

Hello! So this is a chemistry problem however this requires heavy mathematics which is why I came here. It is a half life problem. I have no idea (I did try to go on YouTube and find things but I couldn't) on how 400x(1/2)^20/5 became 25.
$400 \cdot (1/2)^{20/5} = 400 \cdot (1/2)^4 = 400 \cdot \frac{1}{16}$...
Ann
heavy mathematics 
Hm ok
damn i made a silly mistake thats why
thanks
idk what i was thinking and how I missed that
for some reason I did 20/5 = 4 * 1/2 to get 2
thank you very much
yea I was just tryna say that this more of a math problem than chemistry.
and i didn't want to get warned for doing a different subject

How can this be proved by induction?
I know that there are m^n functions since every time you pick an element from A you have m possibilites to assign it to an element from B
But how do I use induction for proving this?
so how many you'd have for n+1?
there should be m^(n+1)
looks like you induced it from your assumption that it's m^n
by using your induction hypothesis that it's m^n
does that make it clearer?
well when doing induction you should start from a base case and generally that would be 0
in my case m^0 = 1
that would mean that there is a function with domain the empty set
i don't know how this would be possible
so i think my base case should be n=1
right?
well the mapping from an empty set to another doesn't defy the definition of a function
after all how can you have a mapping of one element to 2 elements simultaneously , if you have no elements

I mean.. if I would prove it, i'd show it for both n=0 and n=1
since n=0 is sort of what is called, a trivial case
and then proceed
f(empty) should be empty
if we're mapping subsets of the domain here
or did i misread
but isn't that still a function?
im talking for a general function
as for a function with empty domain, no clue --- defn will say
I think we're mapping values from a given set tho
it is.
well the definiton of a function is something along the lines of for every element from A, there is a corresponding element from B
and since A is the empty set this def is ok
because for every element in the empty set it is true
since there are none
it can also be a set of ordered pairs
wait actually no not necessairly
it doesn't really matter either way
Making {} a function
But how does
| Hom( {a1, a2, ... an}, {b1. b2 ... bm}) | = m^n TRUE
imply
| Hom( {a1, a2, ... an, a(n+1)}, {b1. b2 ... bm}) | = m^(n +1)
?
how many new mappings do you have after adding 1 element?

I've already solved the question. Was just wondering what an appropriate explanation for the boxed part would be?
I mentioned that "Since $a^2$ is a root and always non-negative, then the cubic in $u$ will always have a non-negative root for whatever value of b,c,p. Provided that the values of b,c,p obeys the first equation"

How do I reduce this further
$\frac{sin^2(x)}{cos(x)}$
Eyesonjune
I tried doing this
Eyesonjune
But I'm not sure how that would help
Tan = sin/cos
So like uhh
sin(x) * tan(x)?
I need to reduce this into f(x) - cos(x) and find f(x)
What's the original problem?
Then this here is good, you can separate fractions
im an idiot how do i do that
If you had 1/x - 2/x^2, the common denominator is x^2 so you have x/x^2 - 2/x^2 which then becomes (x - 2)/x^2
Do you think you can determine the reverse using your problem?
You have a denominator, you can split it up
Same process with my example
Denominator is the same for the fractions, numerator is each term, and sign is in the middle of the fractions
yeah so you get
Eyesonjune
Yes
which becomes
Eyesonjune
And 1/cos is?
Yes sec
is sec^2(x) the same as 1/cos^2(x)
yes
Eyesonjune
,w tan^2(x)+1 = sec^2(x)
how the hell does one get cot(x) from that
no
wait that would be if tan^2(x) + sec^2(x) = 1
not like the sin^2 cos^2 rule
so it's cot(x)(1+tan^2(x))

Write an equation for the polynomial graphed below
so far i tried
(x+1)(x-2)
i forgot how to do this can someone refresh me please
u can use an unrealted polynomial

@calm willow Has your question been resolved?
the problem is that (x+1)(x-2) is a quadratic with x^2
but the graph isn't U-shaped, so it's probably cubic
if the graph was slightly lower it'd look like this right?
2 zeroes really close to each other on the right
when a graph bends backwards at the x-axis like that, it's actually multiple roots
so what should i do
i dont understand sorry
like the 2 roots part
i was doing this in class i my head
and it i got it every time
repeated roots are hard yea
it goes back and forth twice, so it's probably a quadratic
but you only see three zeroes, so one of them is actually multiple
ok how can i tell which one
whether it bounces back
oH
like how the graph y=x^2 looks
right
oops I messed up there
it's facing downwards in the graph
so minus sign in front
oh tru
,w graph -(x+3)(x+2)(x-3)^2
top offset?
yeah i mean coefficitent sorry
ok
so -2/54
then u get that
alright thanks
heere lemme do one with u just to make sure i got it
2/3(x+2)(x+1)(x-1)(x-3)
right

ok last one this time sorry @charred flint
oh nvm im just dum
oh no wait its still wrong
if its squared doesnt it become a positive four
so its 4 * 3 * -1 * 4
oh nvm
yeah
-1/96...
4 times 3 times 4 times 4
this hw is a big oof
oh that's 192
-1/192 aaaa
wait
yeah

oh this is even harder wow
does that mean -1/27(x-2)^2(x-3)^3
it just keeps going
yeah then you need the coefficient
it's ^3 because it curves to being flat
yeah i just got the multiplication part confused i think i got it
-1/27(x-2)^2(x-3)^3
that looks good
it was wrong but i got it
i just realized i need help on a different type of question
and its this one
im sorry lol
this is how i feel
🌈 use a calculator 🌈
(x-1)^2(x0)(x+1)
this is the question i sent above

idk how to figure this out
You can use sine to find x
soh?
u mean 52?
Yeah sorry
52 right?
so 79 ft?
I got that with my actual calculator twice. Don’t know why you aren’t getting that
What calculator are you using?
photomath
Is it in degrees or radians
Lol
I think Photomath is assuming in radians
0.8
should i just use normal calc
Sin of (90 degrees) is 1
Sin of pi/2 radians is 1
Yeah prolly if you don't wanna use radians
Desmos scientific calculator is what I use. It’s great. There are other calculators out there too. You also might want to consider using a physical calculator to get used to tests and stuff.

What would be a sensible way to go about solving this?
Or rather maybe this style rather because obviously you can solve this by eye
like this
so basically you're asked to evaluate $10^{100} \pmod 3$
Ansh
can't you do that though? 
or here, for example, $10^{10} \pmod 6$
Ansh
i mean a more methodical way for more complicated ones because i saw someone do it algebraically but i didn't really understand it
I need to give a harder example, both of these are nice
I don't know how hard you're talking but here's one if you want to try
Let the sum of digits of a number n be denoted as $S(n) \$
Find $S(S(S(4444^{4444})))$
Ansh
I think this is the one that was more difficult
It's still as simple tbh
how tho
$10 \equiv 3 \pmod 7$
Ansh
$10^2 \equiv 2 \pmod 7$
Ansh
$10^6 \equiv 2^3 \equiv 1 \pmod 7$
Ansh
so $10^{10^{10}} \equiv 10^{10^{10} \pmod 6} \pmod 7$
Ansh
How are you going from the first line to the second, and from second to third like that
wait lmao
im dumpy rart
actually i would appreciate it if u could still explain pls
Hmm >_<
SO uh
You understand when I write $10 \equiv 3 \pmod 7$ I mean, 10, when divided by 7, leaves a remainder 3, right?
Ansh
yes
and i understand why its 10^2 = 2 mod 7
and also part of the last line
But from the last line, can you just cube both terms like that
like go from
10^2 = 2 (mod 7)
to
10^6 = 2^3 (mod 7)
Yes
= (98 + 2)^3 ?
= (98^3 + 3(98)(2)(98^2 + 2^2) + 2^3)
leaves remainder 2^3 when divided by 98
:o

I don't know what this question wants me to do
I understand that the first half is basically defining k
but how do I show the top and bottom are the same
hint: you subtract k in the integral (you know what that means on a graph, right?)
Something like this?
,rotate
Or Am i overcomplicating it
@fleet hearth Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
@fleet hearth Has your question been resolved?
By definition
How do I show that the top and bottom regions will have the same area
So basically the average value of f(x), k, is on the interval a<=x<=b
Yes
So the average value lies between a and b
So make a line parallel to x axis, y=k
Now see
I understand this far
Diagram should look something like this
Yep, that's roughly what I envisoned
Hmm
This much is intuitive but I don't know how to "show" it
That's what I'm also thinking about too of how to go over it
Please give me a minute to analyze this
Is there anyway to simplify this maybe?
Well you can say the integral to be equal to F(x) and say
$$F(x).(1-\frac{1}{b-a})$$
Pencil
Hmm, but that doesn't take me anywhere useful
I have an idea
See this
Let the intersection of the line y=x and the perpendicular drawn from (b, 0) be c
Now we will deal with two graphs here
Also let the distance from b to c be (c-b)
Yeah I'm following
For the first graph h(x), we can vertically shift it down to x-axis by subtracting (c-b)
And then we can find the area from k to c of this
For the second graph
Mhm
Note we're still maintaining the continuity of both the functions, so whatever we're doing till now is acceptable
Wait
There
With this info we can proceed
Yes, it looks like changing the boundaries was the step
Yes
And then you can add/subtract k(b-d)
Mhm
And this will be true
Oops forgot the dx there at the end
Okay so we need to prove both areas are equal
I think this statement would be necessary to say we're just manipulating the area under the curve and maintaining the continuity of the function f(x)
Hmm
So we need to prove this
Yes
Alright so c and b are both y values
Since it's downward shift
So b will have y value 0
Since it lies on the x axis
Yep
This definition of the regions looks easier to work with
So what do we do next
Our k interval is a<=x<=b
So we can say
I just replace a with a weird symbol lol
Alright so by wording
k is the average of the continuous function x
That makes sense but what happened to the (b-x)
Sorry
Alright so in the LHS, can we say the integral is equal to the sum of the integrals F2(x) + F1(x)?
We surely can right
Hm
Yes
This is a really tough question
Yeah
Can we find something here to ease our working
Wait let's do this part again
This
Alright
Say the integral in the LHS to be F(x)
Mhm
Alright, we've divided both sides
I don't think that achieved much
Yep
Yes
I just substituted our value of F(x) in this
Does that accomplish something?
I'm looking onto it
It's currently 2:30am for me so my mind is working very slowly now
Oh.... Sorry for taking ur time...
It's fine, it's better than no one showing up
Then I'd have gone to sleep without getting any closer
Logically we can say F2(x) > F1(x)
Resulting a positive area
When that area is halved
And divided by the length (b-x)
We get the rhs
Hmmm
Oh we made a lot of progress
Let's connect the dots
I think we can accomplish this
So basically
So that means we need to find f2x and f1x
Yep, we are trying to prove they are equal
They must be non-zero though
Like when they result 0, F2(x) = F1(x)
The area of the two for every known continuous function isn't always equal right. Sometimes they can be unequal
We can reject b=a case
since b≠a
b=x is acceptable
Wait let me check
Wasn't the Defintion of x that it is a Point between a and b
I just realised this but if our example graph had just been a square then x would be unneeded
In that case, x = b
So that would be acceptable
So I guess it works
Yeah it will
So we proved that by our example graph
If k=0 or b=x, or both, then F2(x) = F1(x)
Because obviously, it will not always be true for the two areas of every continuous function to be equal
Like if f(x) = sqrt(x)
But this makes me curious of if the calculation becomes a lot more simple had we used a rectangle as our example regions
Yes
But area above the line doesn't exist
So it would be f2(x) = 0 + f1(x) since b=x
The does not makes sense
So b=x is also incorrect 🤔
Because it would mean 0 = f1(x)
So if k=0, then only f1(x) = f2(x)
Maybe it doesn't apply to a rectangle because it isn't continous
Since it has vertical lines
Let me check pls give me a min... Sorry for consuming your time....
But a linear function is continuous
Because it has no sort of discontinuity
Like if u take the limit from right or left it stays the same
If the f(x) is equal to the line y=k, then b=x, which implies that f2(x) doesn't exists
Rectangles are not functions tho, their relations, I think that's why it doesn't work for them
I believe triangles would work
If k=0
Like k has to be 0 for the relation to make sense
K has an asymptote at 0
For b=x, it only appears if f2(x) doesn't exist
But how is k asymptote?
I think this condition should work, if k =0, f2(x) = f1(x)
Sorry for taking up ur time... If u want we can end it here... I'll go through whatever we did once again
If your available tommorow then sure
Night
@fleet hearth Has your question been resolved?
I just realized that i stated F2(x) = F1(x), but did not prove A1 = A2

Here, why the graph of function is not different when we divide the function by 3?
Yes, but here the value of function is zero.
yes, as you can see these two functions share the same zero of the function

Hey, have been stuck on this problem for like 4 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated 🙏
Noticed that x_(j+1) < x_j when x_j > sqrt(2). But dont know how to continue from there
So you have showed decreasing or what?
tried showing that x_(j+1) > sqrt(2) if x_j > sqrt(2) by induction but got stuck in the induction step
ill post pic of work
I mean everything cancels in induction step?
You want to show x_{j+1}>sqrt(2)
Write def of x_{j+1} given
Use x_j>sqrt(2)
And you get x_{j+1}>sqrt(2)
its ok to just swap out x_j with sqrt(2) in the def?
We are doing induction
We prove base case
Suppose true for j=k
So we suppose x_j>sqrt(2)
So you get an inequality using that
ok ill try
