sure
I said x first ill make it 100a nothing changes but easier is it a problem for you
nope
It said 60% the games you won . 60% of 100a is 60a
alright
You won 8 more games and played totally 10 more games
yeah
(60a+8)/(100a+10)=65/100
that makes so much sense
Becouse at the beginning i said the amount of games your team played is 100a
Because*
oh yeah
You can give whatever you want
If you ask why we divide them it is because you played 10 games and you won 6
Can you show that with fraction
It is 6/10
yeah
yeah
Can you solve that or should i solve
You are welcome and dont forget you should find 100a after you find one a

Tasked with proving equivalence classes of $\sim$ in S form a partition. Im at the last step of showing the union is S, however stuck on 1 detail:
Trying to show $a\in S\implies a\in E_i$ for some equivalence class $E_i$. If I assume there isn't an $E_i$ such that $a\in E_i$, does that then mean ${a}$ forms an equivalence class by itself?
Mosh
ie if $a\notin E_i\forall i$ then is ${a}$ is an equivalence class?
Mosh
if it didn't then wouldn't the union of all equivalence classes exclude a?
right but im proving $S\subseteq\bigcup_{i=1}^nE_i$
Mosh
so need to show a in E_i by virtue of a in S
But I think it does, cause $a\sim a$ by reflexivity, the singleton should form a new equivalence class, contradicting preassumption of n equivalence classes
Mosh
Indeed, a ~ a by reflexivity. So it must be in some class
yeah
I think there is notation to represent the class an element belongs to? something like [a] or (a).
You can say a \in [a] by reflexivity, hence there exists some i for which a in E_i

Can somebody help me with this ODE
I need to find the general solution. I know there has to be a complementary part you get from the roots of the auxiliary equation. And I know there is a particular component
so the General Solution Ug = Uc + Up
I rewrote the question as: (U'' + U' - 2)U = 2t
So the auxiliary equation can be written as U^2 + U -2
and my roots were 1 and -2
so Uc = C1*et +C2e-2t
But I am confused on how to do the particular part
How can I solve for Up?
Particular solution try $\alpha t^2+\beta t + \gamma$
azeem321
someone told me I can use something called a particular integral
do you know what this is?
also im really new to this, can you help me understand what to do with this eqn
You find the homogeneous solutions (L[u]=0)
then guess at a function based on the forcing function
idk what L[u] means, or the forcing function
I thought I already found the homogenous solutions
Find a YouTube video explaining this or find a textbook
Whats the point of the help channel if not something like this lol
I tried watching a video on particular integrals but i dont understand
The ODE you've presented is a very simple case. If you can't solve that means you haven't learned the topic properly. Find some videos which go through this. It's gonna be hard to explain to you what to do otherwise
ok
It's like trying to explain to someone how to count when they don't even know what numbers are yet
it wont make sense
until you learn about this shiz

Hi!
So i have this problem, where i have a wheel on a 1m surface area.
So the wheel height is 1m, so diameter of circle d=1m, the r=0.5
I also know that the wheel should spin 110 degree.
So if i double diameter of the wheel to 2m, the r=1m, the wheel should only spin half as much, so 110/2=55 degree.
If i half the diameter than it should spin twice as much, 220 degree
How can i calculate for this wheel any other diameters? For example if i want the wheel to be, 2.45 times bigger? Or any other number
So youre trying to see how many degrees the wheel has to spin to travel 1 meter?
For a certain diameter
Yes
How far a wheel goes when it spins is basically just arclength
The arclength of a circle is angle * radius
Angle in radians specifically
So if distance = angle * radius then angle = distance/radius
If you want to mess with it in degrees and diameter you can do some more conversion
Starting with
$angle = \frac{distance}{radius}$
PapaBread
$angle = \frac{2 \cdot distance}{diameter}$
PapaBread
This would be the way to do it with diameter
The reason the 2 is on the top is because you need to divide diameter by 2 to get radius
And dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal
yea, that is clear
Then you need to convert the angle to degrees
degrees = 180 * radians/pi basically
So you can just substitute that in
yeah i must work in degrees for sure
$degrees = \frac{360 \cdot distance}{\pi \cdot diameter}$
PapaBread
I think that should work
okay
sounds great
i'm working in a 3D program, for animation and i can't get the wheels to stick, when i use different sizes
the distance is always 1m, as it's just extends it after the 1st meter
This formulas will help a lot
thank you kind sir!

Find c
According to this answer, this question is doable by pure algebra
After you obtain the relations
=================
a + b = 12.5pi
b + c + e = 12.5pi
a + b + c + d = 25pi
a + b + c + d + e + f = 100
=================
I feel convinced this is impossible
Surely they must have a mistake?
Isnt this from that one youtube video
There is just no way to isolate c from this alone
no idea, saw someone ask it today
Just run through the solution you linked
I'm finding it very hard to go thru it but will try
Different labelling annoying af
I mean - just looking at this alone I feel it's impossible to eliminate
๐ค
Throw it into an RREF calculator and see what happens
They're all linear equations
(1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | -25/2 (ฯ - 8)
0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | -1 | -1 | 25 (ฯ - 4)
0 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | (25 ฯ)/2
0 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 0 | -25 (ฯ - 4))
thanks good suggestion
damn that means c isn't free?
๐
been too long since I done systems with matrices
No no, surely that means c aint fixed.
(used estimations of pi)
yh guess must be a mistake.

You can set up a system of two equations given the two pieces of information
The first thing you can do is defining the two numbers as variables
Such as x and y
And try to translate the given info in terms of x and y
Well 3:4 is the ratio not the exact values of the two numbers
I have a lot of sweets. I split them evenly into 7 jars; 3 jars are red ๐ด, 4 jars are blue ๐ต.
There are 17 more sweets in the blue jars combined than the red jars combined.
How many sweets are in the red jars combined? How many are in the blue jars combined?
.
@past schooner Has your question been resolved?
If you don't know something. you should call it something like x
To help form equations.
That is true.
When you're forming equations it is helpful to be more concise
b = r + 17 for example
Now, there is something else that is useful. You know something about the ratio between b and r
From the first line.
"I have a lot of sweets. I split them evenly into 7 jars; 3 jars are red ๐ด, 4 jars are blue ๐ต"
related in some way, I agree...
hmmm
How about this
call one jar j
You split the sweets evenly
So a single jar always has j sweets.
so how is j related with b and r?
no no.
So to be clear
j is the total number of sweets in the 3 red jars
b is the total number of sweets in the 4 blue jars

Hey!
It would be nice If you could help me with this question.
Manny borrowed โน9000 from her neighbour. Out of which โน3000 were borrowed at 12% and the remaining at 15% rate of interest per annum. What is the total interest after 3 years?
I actually did it like 3000ร12ร3/100
I've already learned about this last year but can't remember the steps.
Then I multiplied the rest like 6000ร15ร3

may i know if my solution is right?
,calc 3^7
Result:
2187
,calc 7!
Result:
5040
how should it be phrased then?
assume claim (k) is true for k\geq 7
what is claim (k)?
for all k\geq 7? are you sure
in mathematics, there is a very big difference between saying "for all x" and "for some x" - by default if you write "for <condition>", it means "for all satisfying <condition>"
for all x, means it applies for all x
for some x, means that there's some specific x it applies for
how does induction work in general?
Take this as a reference.
A question Camilleone: after we have defined our inductive hypothesis, is it okay to start with the inductive step and show that it holds when our inductive hypothesis is true.. or is it compulsory to build up from the inductive hypothesis to the inductive step?
but i did not say for all k in line 4 right? i just write k>= 7
or is the latter just the convention?
depends on the level
in high school and in foundations you want to see the hypothesis
anything above that we can jump straight into the meat
because it's understood that you're doing induction
which as any mathematician will tell you, generally reads as "for all k\geq 7"
Thought so.. It's the same as how it's a usual practice to assume LHS = RHS in some proofs and manipulate both sides till you're left with some obvious result, which in higher levels is not desired.
so i have to add it to become for some k ?
When you say $k\geq 7$ it also includes numbers like $k = 7.5$ say, does your induction work on these numbers too?
Ansh
reread the reference and check how they chose to define the variables they introduced such that every line of the proof is pretty well defined.
I THINK I got it
i just need to write for all integers k>= 7
that will solve the problem right?

quick question if i multiply both sides by -4 does the constant C remain as C or do i have to multiply it by -4 as well
is this meant to be the solution to an ODE, with C an arbitrary constant?
if so, then the C can absorb a constant multiplicative factor.
yea solution to an ODE
my friend and i have conflicitng answers can you tell me what i or he did wrong
can you show yours and your friend's answers
yea
uh huh
is that all your work?
i dont care about that
let me check
your solution does not satisfy the initial condition y(1)=2
i'm not going to say anything lest i accidentally fuck up myself
Right. So your solution doesn't satisfy the initial condition
idk where i fucked up
if i left it as ln
then i get the right answer?
,w integrate x/(1-2x^2)
Ansh
|1 - 2y^2/x^2| = 7/x^4, so 1 - 2y^2/x^2 = ยฑ7/x^4
da heck ๐ that how abs works beans? 
lol
but yeah, your initial value suggests a -ve sign on opening the abs
wdym -ve
never seen someone say -ve
ooo
yha
It looks like there are 4 solutions
yes..
except you use the initial condition
to check which curve actually works for you
in this case, the -ve sign one works
okay sounds good
btw I'm also curious, have you not learnt about integrating factors yet?
i ahve
:O
i already finished my ODE class last semeester
my friend is doing it
and wanted some help
Ah
im a cs major so this math stuff doesnt really matter to me

hi, if I want to find the partial derivative respect to x of this function: f(x,y) = x^2 + y^2 + (12-x-y)^2 , can I apply power rule+chain rule directly to the last part or should I distribute the square first?
I ask because I did it that way (without distributing) but I end up with a different solution if I distribute it, which is correct?
can you show your work
Both should've been same and correct. Perhaps there's a miscalculation somewhere
,rotate
why did you write D_y
is D_1*, to refer to the partial derivative respect to the 1st variable
oooh I understand now
I saw the "y" as an 1, thats why this happened
Happens when trying to go so fast lol
why not just write 1s with a vertical stroke
yep true its just that I'm just fast practicing stuff, so I'm not trying to go fancy

y=x*exp(y) what type of equation is this?
and can I solve it using matlab?
Solve for x or for y?
yeah
So which one?
y = xe^y
ye^(-y) = x
(-y)e^(-y) = -x
-y = W(-x), where W is the lambert W function
y = -W(-x)
As a side note, lambert W function is defined to be the inverse of xe^x
sorry, is there any particular name for this type of equation?
I have this equation and I have to solve it in matlab, and plot graph
I guess y = -W(-x) would be graphed just like y = W(x) but reflected around the origin
oh that's good then
and easy to do
hold on
x=[exp(-1)-0.05:exp(-1):exp(-1)+0.05];
y=[0:0.5:2];
y=x.*exp(y);
plot(x,y);
why there are no lines?
It is supposed to look like this
Weird, that's how it should look yeah
plus there are no lines, there should be something
x=[exp(-1)-0.05:exp(-1):exp(-1)+0.05];
what were you trying to do with this line?
i have a feeling that at best this just wouldn't produce anything meaningful
I am trying to change x from exp(-1)+0.05 to exp(-1)+0.05
damn now I remember, this will take exp (-1) as difference between subsequent value
so you want to graph $x = ye^{-y}$ for $e^{-1} - 0.05 \leq x \leq e^{-1} + 0.05$?
Ann
do i understand your goal correctly?
aye!!
right
let me show you something
so this means you'll have $y = -W(-x)$...
Ann
where W is the lambert W function
also, when specifying a linearly spaced vector with colon notation you probably shouldn't be enclosing it in []
This is what I want, this graph came from that equation, y=x*exp(y). I have considered x=ฮด
Oh is that so?
yes. the output of a:b:c is already a vector
anyway
y = linspace(0, 4);
x = y .* exp(-y);
plot(x, y);
modulo color/style settings, this should get you what you want
the dashed lines will have to be plotted separately of course
aye the graph came out!!
and you'll need to write hold on so that the curve doesn't get overwritten
This MATLAB function creates a vertical line at one or more x-coordinates in the current axes.
you can use this for your vertical lines
xline(exp(-1) - 0.05, '--g');
xline(exp(-1), '--k');
xline(exp(-1) + 0.05, '--b');
so now I just have to do this
hold on;
u=exp(-1)+0.05;
v=exp(-1);
w=exp(-1)-0.05;
plot (u);
plot (v);
plot (w);
I can do this as well? without assigning value?
i don't think what you wrote will work
this worked though
Thanks for the help!!
also any idea why this didn't work?
I specified the variable but didn't defined the axis?
when you feed a single vector of length n into plot, it plots the entries of the vector on the y axis vs. the numbers 1 through n on the x axis
a scalar is a vector of length 1, so all you got is three solitary points at (1, u), (1, v) and (1, w)
so instead of plotting straight lines, matlab marked graph with points
you didn't communicate properly to matlab what you wanted to plot.
you shouldn't be surprised when matlab doesn't do what you want

ight, this time its the trigs
i am aware i need to use these equations
i got them under the same cos function
but idk what i can do with the co efficients
$X\cos(\alpha t) + Y\sin(\alpha t) \equiv R\sin(\alpha t+ \beta)$
?
azeem321
Solve for R and beta
how to i remove the coefficnets of x and y?
expand out sin(alpha t+beta) and you will see the path
legit provided in the eq
expand this out
$\sin(\alpha t + \theta)$
azeem321
this^
good
Now you have $X\cos(\alpha t) + Y\sin(\alpha t) \equiv E(\sin(\alpha t)\cos(\theta) + \cos(\alpha t)\sin(\theta))$
right.
Can you see what to do?
azeem321
You've left out the E's for some reason
right, ill include the E for both then
From this equation, you can find an expression in terms of X and Y for E
ok, ill see what i can do
hows this?
can i expand the cos with tan^-1(x/y)?
i dont think i can tbf
hmm, ok i can see what i need to do now
thank you

It's a geometric series @alpine sable

This is just 2^(n-1) I believe
Where n is the amount of powers of 2 on the list
Probably better ways to do it than counting the amount of numbers on the list but thats what I'd do
1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024
12 numbers
n=12
Hope this helps
i don't know what im looking at, like what is that large sign that looks like reverse Z
Sigma
sigma = sum of
That notation is called the sigma notation
focus on this equation:
a (starting value) = 1
r (common ratio) = 2
n (number of values) = 12
negative / negative = positive
Oh nvm
this looks familiar, was it derived from something?
That's the geometric series
not sure where it was derived from, but it is the sum of series eq. so ill keep it with tat
putting those values into here doesnt work, it gives smth around 372 which isnt right
i got 4095
oh what
You calculated it wrong

Q. the probability of hitting a target in any shot is 0.2. if 5 shots are fired find the probability that the target will be hit at least twice.
Is my answer correct?
P (hitting target) = 0.2 = 2/10 = 1/5
This means that, P(not hitting target) = 4/5 = 0.8
Therefore, we can say that from the 5 shots fired 1 will hit, while 4 shots fired will not.
So the probability of target hit once = the probability of hitting target one-time ร (the probability of not hitting a target 4 times) = (0.2)ร(0.8)^4
And the probability of target never hit = 0.8^5
So now,
The probability of the target hit twice will be = 1 - target hit once - target hit never
= 1 - [0.2ร(0.8^4)]โ0.8^5
Here taking 0.8^4 common, we get
1 - (0.8^4)(0.2 + 0.8)
= 1 - (0.8^4)(1) = 1 - (0.8^4)
= 1 - 0.4096
= 0.5904

Let me know if this is an approved way to post my question. I am essentially stuck on this part. I'm lost where to even begin. I have tried substituting t for 6 since that is the time we are looking to solve with. I imagine I want to swap cos function for the sin function as well but unsure. Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks
@dim bane Has your question been resolved?
wait a minute
i dont get it
youre supposed to conclude the function Q using its derivative?
@dim bane
I believe so? Also, time is represented by seconds, not number of hours... according to the video provided with the etext
Let me get back to that problem.
Q(t)=((480sin((t*pi)/12)/pi)+40x+c
wait let me latex it
Alright this should be our beloved function
Still, how are we getting 240 from a coefficient of 20?
does it have to do with going from cos to sin?
yeah we basically have to plug du/dx to be t*pi/12
240 is just because we multiplied 12*20
in the process
wait let me show you
oh!
so this function is obviously linear
the slope is too big
we still need to figure out that +C
hopefully they gave us informations in the text of question
when t=0 the thing is empty
that means Q(0)=0
now its easy to solve for C
Got it?
Not entirely.
Okay so
If we have a function
And we want to integrate it
It wont give us simply another function
but rather, it will give us a bunch of functions with the same slope
so when we integrate the given function at the question in order to get what we want, we will get a function with a constant nomial
the constant nomial wont change the slope of the function, but it wont help us do our calculations
I set the function = 0 and subbed x out for 0 to solve for C but that just equals 0
How come?
Or maybe it does but im just lost
You are missing the part where 'why is solving for c necessary"?
I really dont get anything about this problem honestly. Looking for a pattern to follow to solve it
x^2 + c
right
so
if the text question told us that the function we need is f(x)
and they stated that f'(x)=2x
the function we need is obviously f(x)=2x+c
now look at these functions
all of these fit to be integrals of 2x
but which one do we use?
The one that intersects where we want to be?
exactly, so basically we need more informations
and that information is when they said that "when t=0, the thing will be empty)
now, with the same idea
which one of these functions gives y=0 when x=0
x^2
right
so basically the function is x^2
hence c=0
and thats basically it
in such integration problems you have to solve for c
and we just did
so now we have our function
just put the function and make it equal to 0
the text said that when x=0 y=0
so we can plug x and y for 0
like you did here
you plugged 0 for y on the left, and 0 for x on the right
if the text said that when t=0 the reservoir will be 100m^3 we can solve for 100=f(t)
if that was the case we do this
the fraction = 0 and 20*0 = 0 so
c=100
basically, in such problems, just plug the given x for x, and the given y for y
and solve for c
its kind of annoying on non linear functions but yeah it has to be done
Lol I'm still not seeing it. Did you just throw "100" out as a hypothetical?
as an example to be precise
yeah
just to demonstrate
this function isnt linear, its almost linear
in linear functions, c will equal whetever the function equals when x=0
in this case, y=0 when x=0 hence c=0
not to be confused, this function isnt linear, but it kind of is at small values of x
like if x is below 200 this rule should work
Ok
so now we have our function
we can go ahead and solve the question
do you get that part?
Re-evaluating this
This is the integration of the original function/formula?
yeah
ok
they gave us the derivative of the function that we need
So its the antiderivative?
yep
And when we set the antiderivative equal to zero, and substitue out " t " for 0, we get c = 0.
I know we're going around in circles, but makes more sense now. In the word problem they state t = 0, meaning the reservoir is empty at the time
t=0 to be precise is about the time
Right
it means that before we start filling
we solve the actual thing i guess?
Umm, Im getting 40 but I know thats not correct
let me recheck
Ok
20[ 1 + cos (pi(0)/12)] was the formula I used
the original formula, swapping " t " for 0
why are you using the derivative function?
Because I dont understand what I am doing.
I should be using the antiderivative function?
i mean even i am a bit confused at this point
we do know that the container circulates based on the function of antiderivative
The correct answerr is 78.20. I used up my attempts at that version of the problem.
what
whyyy
the question said that
whats the y when x= 2
by the antiderivative function Q(2)=78.20
comon i was getting to that...
you got any more questions?
The extext will provide me with another version of that question.
ok
its easy
just replace 20x with 50x
and do 12*50 as the coefficient of sin
so its (600 sin (tpi/12))/pi + 50x + c
ok
c=0 in this question also
Right
we have the function
plug t for 6
and calculate the Q(6)
the antiderivative one
wait let me recheck
( sin600(pi(6)/12) )/ pi + 50(6)
Sorry, not good at LaTeX yet. Just started using it the other day in a computer science class.
yeah
it doesnt matter
i myself prefer writing equations directly
but yeah
its equal to 490.986
๐ตโ๐ซ
we've been doing derivatives for too long we cant let such mistake ruin it all ๐
b. Find the function that gives the amount of water in the reservoir over the intervalโ [0,t]
yeah thats the just the antiderivative function
nope
this is the slope of our function
i would say we need to calculate the amount of water
use this
q(t)=3500
so set the function equal to 3500?
We dont sub t out for 3500 in the function?
we dont plug for t
we solve for it
leave as it as
and set the function equal to 3500
put x instead of t and retry?
Still no solution
How did you go about it
70.9942
I get that, but the formula?
Weird, wonder why it wasnt computing no my end.
try a different calculator
Thank you for your time and guidance.
๐
id suggest desmos maybe
these calculators arent the best
Have a good day! Currently snowing two feet where I live. Desmos and symbo lab are handy

can someone explain the lim t-->infinity to me
why does it go to zero
I believe s-k is positive, and the limit of exp(-x) when x goes to infinity is always 0
If T goes to infinity, the expression becomes $\frac{1}{s-k}e^{-\infty}$.
You can write $e^{-\infty}$ as $\frac{1}{e^{\infty}}$. Any constant raised to infinity other than -1, 0 and 1, tends to infinity as well, which makes the expression to become $\frac{1}{ยฑ\infty}$, which is ยฑ0 or 0 itself.
So the whole expression when T approaches infinity, approaches 0.
Pencil
Hence the answer
Also any constant times ยฑinfinity tends to ยฑinfinity too, hence the first part of my answer
but if you write the inside part as e^{k-s}t, which is the same as e^-(s-k), how would the infinity go to the denominator
cuz when solving i wrote e^(k-s)t rather than e^-(s-k)t
so thats why im confused
this makes sense, but why not the other way
I believe that was deliberately done to get rid of the $e^{\infty}$ indeterminate
Pencil
That's basically just algebraic manipulation
At times while solving limits, we often come accross $\frac{1}{0}$, $\frac{0}{0}$, $ยฑ\frac{\infty}{\infty}$, $0^0$ problems too. We just do some algebraic manipulation and proceed, because we're just analyzing what's the value f(x) is approaching to when x approaches some value a.

for french speakers is saying estimation d'erreur is the same as majoration d'erreur ?
I don't really know, but I prefer saying estimation d'erreur
Or calcul de la marge d'erreur
donc c'est juste de donner une majoration et s'ils nous demandent de calculer on calcule la valeur exacte ?
C'est quoi le contexte ? Suite numerique ?
@vestal quartz Has your question been resolved?
interpolation numerique
jai zero connaissances ร propos de l'interpolation numรฉrique (ร part que je sais c'est quoi le polynome d'interpolation de Lagrange), mais en gรฉnรฉral tu peux pas avoir de valeur exacte pour quelques choses dans un cas rรฉel, c'est la qu'intervient la marge d'erreur, utile pour les approximations si je dis pas de betises

so I've got #1 and it seems pretty straight forward
just that $\hat \lambda = \frac{1}{\bar x}$
jan Niku
my teacher assures me its just notation for the second portion but im having a very hard time understanding
I think its something like
$\sqrt n (g (\frac{1}{\hat \lambda} ) - g (\bar x) ) \to N(0, g'(\frac{1}{\lambda})^2 \sigma ^2 )$
jan Niku
is what im supposed to write?
im not sure
its probably not
im not really sure what to write
dont we have to show that the estimator is asymptotically normal first?
or its just understood that bar x conv to the mean
i'm not sure
im having a hard time understanding this section
according to my notes, the estimator has to be asymptotically normal
then we are allowed to apply a function to it
but if the estimator isnt normal
idk if we ignore that
do you get the remaining portion of the problem?
like this form
this is more what im confused about
specifically the start i guess, the first portion
how do you know what you want to end up with there?
like do i want to throw the reciprocal of the estimator in? or just the estimator?
how do you decide
like this term
how do you know what you want to be in the parenthesis
i have to decide on arguments for the function
or if youre able to help in general with this problem
im not really sure what im doing
I have the MLE im assuming its pretty straightforward from there?
im not really sure either, its just what the question says
its delta method
or propogation of error
although its not clear to me like
what its doing or why were using it
or what its supposed to mean if we do it right
so if you know any of that
itd be helpful
why do we care about the asymptotic distribution of the MLE
IAttemptToIntegrate
so it should be important what gets passed through that function
i guess this makes sense
what doesnt make sense is passing the MLE through a transform
or why thatd be important or useful
especially in this specific case
is that not given by just being asymptotically normal?
IAttemptToIntegrate
I dont understand
oh
okay
but then
sigma^2 is still in this new distribution
and we still dont know it
well im assuming it is
i havent gotten that far yet 
i need to figure out whats up with the left hand side and those functions
unless something insanely lucky and nice happens it will still be unknown after the transform
right
how do you know
right but its still multiplied by the original variance
which youre saying is unknown
I dont know
If im being honest
It's not really clear to me what the utility would be
it seems like you still dont know what you already didnt know
and instead like
now everything is transformed around
so i guess at best you still know exactly as much as you already did
woah cool symbol
okay
IAttemptToIntegrate
this is what we have
$\hat \lambda = \frac{1}{\bar x}$ estimating $\lambda$ in $f(x) = \lambda e^{- \lambda x}$ for $\vec X \sim Exp(\lambda)$
yea
oh, so we'd want to use a transformation on the MLE to get at bar x?
๐
okay
so the idea is that
we have some MLE for a parameter, but its a transformation of something we know a lot about
so if we can trust CLT through a transformation, then we know about the MLE too

okay so
i want to figure out how to finagle the transformation to end up with like
$g(\hat theta) - g(\theta)$ becoming $\bar x - \mu$?
jan Niku
then just determine what the transformation has done to screw up the variance if anything
of this new distribution
jan Niku
implies id want to do $g (\hat \lambda) - g(\frac{1}{\mu})$ providing $\bar x - \mu$
i think
jan Niku
jan Niku
do I use $L( \lambda ; \vec x) = \lambda ^n e^{- \lambda \sum x_i}$?
jan Niku
the variance of lambda
i think?
i think we need the variance of the thing were trying to estimate there
im not actually sure thats what it means
what usually goes there
i just assumed
but exponential gives variance of the RV right
not of the mean
or the reciprocal of the mean
unless you can just do like
$\sigma ^2 ( \lambda ) = \int _0 ^{\infty} \left( \lambda ^2 \cdot (\lambda e^{- \lambda x}\right) \dd \lambda - \left( \int _0 ^{\infty} \lambda \cdot \lambda e^{- \lambda x} \dd \lambda \right) ^2$
sorry one sec
im typing
i mean to say
just integrate using shortcut method
jan Niku
how do you know?
but the

the distribution of x this way and the distribution of lambda are different
okay
they are
well we have the variance of x
not of lambda
unless im just like
if im completely not understanding what variance is
like variance should change with lambda right
as we move lambda around
since our MLE treats lambda as a statistic and x bar as a parameter
we should have a different variance
one that depends on x bar
just like variance of x depends on lambda
or im assuming thats how variance of a distribution works
but im pretty mind fucked from this semester so far
i mean

okay so
the variance of the distribution doesnt depend on the data
it only depends on the parameter of the original distribution
if this is true
idk im lost
you did say you believe this is mu^2?
actually now im thinking this is wrong
shouldnt this be $g( \bar x) - g(\mu)$
jan Niku
