long iris
#

Can i change something to make it easier

faint thicket
#

sure

long iris
#

I said x first ill make it 100a nothing changes but easier is it a problem for you

faint thicket
#

nope

long iris
#

It said 60% the games you won . 60% of 100a is 60a

faint thicket
#

alright

long iris
#

You won 8 more games and played totally 10 more games

faint thicket
#

yeah

long iris
#

60a+8/100a+10=65/100

#

Can you solve equations

faint thicket
#

yeah

#

whys it 100a

long iris
faint thicket
#

that makes so much sense

long iris
#

Because*

long iris
#

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

faint thicket
#

yeah

long iris
#

And you said after that matches your teams won rate became 65%

#

65% is equal to 65/100

faint thicket
#

yeah

long iris
faint thicket
#

thank you!

long iris
#

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?

ocean sealBOT
glass lichen
#

ie if $a\notin E_i\forall i$ then is ${a}$ is an equivalence class?

ocean sealBOT
wanton junco
#

if it didn't then wouldn't the union of all equivalence classes exclude a?

glass lichen
#

right but im proving $S\subseteq\bigcup_{i=1}^nE_i$

ocean sealBOT
wanton junco
#

oh..

#

right..

glass lichen
#

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

ocean sealBOT
pale kestrel
#

Indeed, a ~ a by reflexivity. So it must be in some class

glass lichen
#

yeah

pale kestrel
#

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

glass lichen
#

Yeah, I just chose to use E_i for mine catshrug

#

$[x]:={s\in S|x\sim s}$

Can somebody help me with this ODE

lone heartBOT
meager fiber
#

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?

supple tundra
#

Particular solution try $\alpha t^2+\beta t + \gamma$

ocean sealBOT
#

azeem321

meager fiber
#

someone told me I can use something called a particular integral

#

do you know what this is?

meager fiber
glass lichen
#

You find the homogeneous solutions (L[u]=0)

#

then guess at a function based on the forcing function

meager fiber
#

idk what L[u] means, or the forcing function

meager fiber
supple tundra
#

Find a YouTube video explaining this or find a textbook

meager fiber
#

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

supple tundra
#

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

meager fiber
#

ok

supple tundra
#

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.

silent tiger
#

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

bleak ridge
#

So youre trying to see how many degrees the wheel has to spin to travel 1 meter?

#

For a certain diameter

silent tiger
#

Yes

bleak ridge
#

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

#

$angle = \frac{distance}{radius}$

ocean sealBOT
#

PapaBread

bleak ridge
#

This ones taken

silent tiger
#

aham

#

these ones help for sure

bleak ridge
#

$angle = \frac{2 \cdot distance}{diameter}$

ocean sealBOT
#

PapaBread

bleak ridge
#

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

silent tiger
#

yea, that is clear

bleak ridge
#

Then you need to convert the angle to degrees

#

degrees = 180 * radians/pi basically

#

So you can just substitute that in

silent tiger
#

yeah i must work in degrees for sure

bleak ridge
#

$degrees = \frac{360 \cdot distance}{\pi \cdot diameter}$

ocean sealBOT
#

PapaBread

bleak ridge
#

I think that should work

silent tiger
#

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?

bleak ridge
#

Isnt this from that one youtube video

pale kestrel
#

There is just no way to isolate c from this alone

#

no idea, saw someone ask it today

glass lichen
#

Just run through the solution you linked

gray isle
#

a = c + e
from symmetry

#

wait nvm

#

you get that from the first two eqns anyway

pale kestrel
#

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

#

๐Ÿค”

glass lichen
#

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))

pale kestrel
#

thanks good suggestion

#

damn that means c isn't free?

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

#

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.

fiery flame
#

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 ๐Ÿ”ด, 4 jars are blue ๐Ÿ”ต.

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?

lone heartBOT
#

@past schooner Has your question been resolved?

pale kestrel
#

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 ๐Ÿ”ด, 4 jars are blue ๐Ÿ”ต"

#

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!

lone heartBOT
alpine sable
#

It would be nice If you could help me with this question.

#

Manny borrowed โ‚น9000 from her neighbour. Out of which โ‚น3000 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 3000ร—12ร—3/100

#

I've already learned about this last year but can't remember the steps.

#

Then I multiplied the rest like 6000ร—15ร—3

#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

Sorry for the ping

#

But it's been 15 mins

proven rune
#

yes u r right

#

just calculate the values and add them @alpine sable

alpine sable
#

Alright

#

3780?

#

Is that the answer?

proven rune
#

yes

#

well done

hasty elk
#

line 4 is badly phrased

#

otherwise the logic looks ok

tranquil kestrel
hasty elk
#

assume claim (k) is true for k\geq 7

#

what is claim (k)?

#

for all k\geq 7? are you sure

tranquil kestrel
#

yeah greater or equal than 7 right?

#

thats the assumption isn't it

hasty elk
#

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?

little drum
#

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?

tranquil kestrel
little drum
#

or is the latter just the convention?

hasty elk
#

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

hasty elk
little drum
#

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.

tranquil kestrel
little drum
#

When you say $k\geq 7$ it also includes numbers like $k = 7.5$ say, does your induction work on these numbers too?

ocean sealBOT
little drum
tranquil kestrel
#

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

vale wigeon
#

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.

full frost
#

yea solution to an ODE

full frost
vale wigeon
#

can you show yours and your friend's answers

full frost
#

yea

vale wigeon
#

and the original ODE

#

just to make verification simpler

full frost
#

vale wigeon
#

uh huh

full frost
#

its sending hold up

#

taking a while...

vale wigeon
#

is that all your work?

full frost
#

yea didnt sovle for y yet tho

#

is that right up till there?

vale wigeon
#

i dont care about that

#

let me check

#

your solution does not satisfy the initial condition y(1)=2

full frost
#

rip

#

any clue where i messed up?

vale wigeon
#

i'm not going to say anything lest i accidentally fuck up myself

full frost
#

if i plug in y(1)=2 i get -7 = 7 right

#

then i get the right answer?

,w integrate x/(1-2x^2)

#

$\left| 1 - \frac{2y^2}{x^2}\right| = \left|\frac{7}{x^4}\right|$

ocean sealBOT
little drum
#

what next?

#

|1 - 2y^2/x^2| = 7/x^4, so 1 - 2y^2/x^2 = ยฑ7/x^4

#

da heck ๐Ÿ˜ that how abs works beans? zoomEyes

full frost
#

lol

echo socket
#

Yes if |a| = b, then a = ยฑb

#

Can't see any other cases possible

little drum
#

but yeah, your initial value suggests a -ve sign on opening the abs

little drum
#

negative

#

|1-8| = |7| ._.

full frost
#

never seen someone say -ve

little drum
#

-(1-8) = 7

#

ah

#

srry, it must be an Asian thing

full frost
#

so its this?

#

im asian

little drum
#

ooo

full frost
#

but im in america lol

#

asian american yk

little drum
#

yha

echo socket
#

It looks like there are 4 solutions

full frost
#

oh yeah there is

#

is what i sent correct?

little drum
#

yes..

#

except you use the initial condition

#

to check which curve actually works for you

#

in this case, the -ve sign one works

full frost
#

okay sounds good

little drum
#

btw I'm also curious, have you not learnt about integrating factors yet?

full frost
#

i ahve

little drum
#

:O

full frost
#

i already finished my ODE class last semeester

#

my friend is doing it

#

and wanted some help

im a cs major so this math stuff doesnt really matter to me

if i was a math major then id care

solid plume
#

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?

solid plume
#

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?

gray isle
#

can you show your work

little drum
#

Both should've been same and correct. Perhaps there's a miscalculation somewhere

solid plume
gray isle
#

,rotate

ocean sealBOT
solid plume
#

oh

#

I forgot to distribute the 2 to the y

gray isle
#

why did you write D_y

solid plume
#

is D_1*, to refer to the partial derivative respect to the 1st variable

gray isle
#

D_x would be clearer

#

and your 1s are horribly written

#

and also 2 * 12 isn't 23

solid plume
#

oooh I understand now

#

I saw the "y" as an 1, thats why this happened

#

Happens when trying to go so fast lol

gray isle
#

why not just write 1s with a vertical stroke

solid plume
#

yep true its just that I'm just fast practicing stuff, so I'm not trying to go fancy

fiery finch
#

yeah

echo socket
#

So which one?

fiery finch
#

oh wait, y

#

I misread your question, sorry

echo socket
#

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

fiery finch
#

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

echo socket
#

I guess y = -W(-x) would be graphed just like y = W(x) but reflected around the origin

fiery finch
#

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

echo socket
#

Weird, that's how it should look yeah

fiery finch
#

plus there are no lines, there should be something

vale wigeon
#
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

fiery finch
#

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

vale wigeon
#

so you want to graph $x = ye^{-y}$ for $e^{-1} - 0.05 \leq x \leq e^{-1} + 0.05$?

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

do i understand your goal correctly?

fiery finch
#

aye!!

vale wigeon
#

right

fiery finch
#

let me show you something

vale wigeon
#

so this means you'll have $y = -W(-x)$...

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

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 []

fiery finch
#

This is what I want, this graph came from that equation, y=x*exp(y). I have considered x=ฮด

vale wigeon
#

right.

#

so you want that graph

#

hm

#

i think what would be better is this:

vale wigeon
#

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

fiery finch
#

aye the graph came out!!

vale wigeon
#

and you'll need to write hold on so that the curve doesn't get overwritten

#

you can use this for your vertical lines

#
xline(exp(-1) - 0.05, '--g');
xline(exp(-1), '--k');
xline(exp(-1) + 0.05, '--b');
fiery finch
#

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);
fiery finch
vale wigeon
#

i don't think what you wrote will work

fiery finch
#

yeah it didn't work

#

๐Ÿฅฒ

fiery finch
#

Thanks for the help!!

fiery finch
#

I specified the variable but didn't defined the axis?

vale wigeon
#

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)

fiery finch
#

so instead of plotting straight lines, matlab marked graph with points

vale wigeon
#

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

fiery finch
#

fair enough

#

wait I shared the wrong code

Hello,
y = x^2 is called a parabola in 2d space,
but what is z = x^2 called in the 3d space?

Is it still a parabola?

edgy sparrow
#

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

supple tundra
#

$X\cos(\alpha t) + Y\sin(\alpha t) \equiv R\sin(\alpha t+ \beta)$

edgy sparrow
#

?

ocean sealBOT
#

azeem321

supple tundra
#

Solve for R and beta

edgy sparrow
#

how to i remove the coefficnets of x and y?

supple tundra
#

expand out sin(alpha t+beta) and you will see the path

edgy sparrow
supple tundra
#

expand this out

edgy sparrow
#

the Ysin(at) func?

#

$\sin(\alpha t + \theta)$

ocean sealBOT

azeem321

supple tundra
#

this^

edgy sparrow
#

uh... ok ill try

#

thid right?

supple tundra
#

good

#

Now you have $X\cos(\alpha t) + Y\sin(\alpha t) \equiv E(\sin(\alpha t)\cos(\theta) + \cos(\alpha t)\sin(\theta))$

edgy sparrow
#

right.

supple tundra
#

Can you see what to do?

ocean sealBOT
#

azeem321

edgy sparrow
#

like this?

supple tundra
#

You've left out the E's for some reason

edgy sparrow
#

right, ill include the E for both then

supple tundra
#

From this equation, you can find an expression in terms of X and Y for E

edgy sparrow
#

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

odd rover

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)]โˆ’0.8^5
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?

dim bane
#

No

#

<@&286206848099549185> If anyone is available, I'm in help-0. Thanks

cinder sorrel
#

wait a minute

#

i dont get it

#

youre supposed to conclude the function Q using its derivative?

#

@dim bane

dim bane
#

I believe so? Also, time is represented by seconds, not number of hours... according to the video provided with the etext

cinder sorrel
#

Okay

#

so

#

By anti differentiating that function we will get

dim bane
#

Let me get back to that problem.

cinder sorrel
#

Q(t)=((480sin((t*pi)/12)/pi)+40x+c

#

wait let me latex it

#

Alright this should be our beloved function

dim bane
#

This is the new problem, since I botched the one I posted.

#

How did you get the 480?

cinder sorrel
#

because the first problem had 40 as a coefficient instead of 20

dim bane
#

Still, how are we getting 240 from a coefficient of 20?

#

does it have to do with going from cos to sin?

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

oh!

cinder sorrel
#

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?

dim bane
#

Not entirely.

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

I set the function = 0 and subbed x out for 0 to solve for C but that just equals 0

cinder sorrel
#

perfect so now we have our function

#

C=0

dim bane
#

But that doesn't seem right

cinder sorrel
#

How come?

dim bane
#

Or maybe it does but im just lost

cinder sorrel
#

You are missing the part where 'why is solving for c necessary"?

dim bane
#

I really dont get anything about this problem honestly. Looking for a pattern to follow to solve it

cinder sorrel
#

Okay lets simplify it

#

Can you integrate 2x?

dim bane
#

x^2 + c

cinder sorrel
#

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?

dim bane
#

The one that intersects where we want to be?

cinder sorrel
#

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

cinder sorrel
dim bane
#

x^2

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

Still not seeing how to solve the problem with c= 0

#

just replace the c with 0?

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

yeah thats what I did earlier and you get c = 0

#

Hold on.

cinder sorrel
#

if the text said that when t=0 the reservoir will be 100m^3 we can solve for 100=f(t)

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

Lol I'm still not seeing it. Did you just throw "100" out as a hypothetical?

cinder sorrel
#

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

cinder sorrel
dim bane
#

Ok

cinder sorrel
#

so now we have our function

#

we can go ahead and solve the question

#

do you get that part?

dim bane
dim bane
cinder sorrel
#

yeah

dim bane
#

ok

cinder sorrel
#

they gave us the derivative of the function that we need

dim bane
#

So its the antiderivative?

cinder sorrel
#

yep

dim bane
#

And when we set the antiderivative equal to zero, and substitue out " t " for 0, we get c = 0.

cinder sorrel
#

thats only when they say that y=0 when t=0

#

yeah

dim bane
#

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

cinder sorrel
#

t=0 to be precise is about the time

dim bane
#

Right

cinder sorrel
#

it means that before we start filling

dim bane
#

Theres nothing present.

#

ok, so whats the next step

cinder sorrel
#

we solve the actual thing i guess?

dim bane
#

Umm, Im getting 40 but I know thats not correct

cinder sorrel
#

let me recheck

dim bane
#

Ok

cinder sorrel
#

i got 98

#

@dim bane

#

because the Q(98)=2000

#

because we need 98 hour

dim bane
#

20[ 1 + cos (pi(0)/12)] was the formula I used

#

the original formula, swapping " t " for 0

cinder sorrel
#

why are you using the derivative function?

dim bane
#

Because I dont understand what I am doing.

#

I should be using the antiderivative function?

cinder sorrel
#

i mean even i am a bit confused at this point

#

we do know that the container circulates based on the function of antiderivative

dim bane
#

The correct answerr is 78.20. I used up my attempts at that version of the problem.

cinder sorrel
#

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?

dim bane
#

The extext will provide me with another version of that question.

cinder sorrel
#

ok

dim bane
#

Lemme try and figure out the antiderivative

cinder sorrel
#

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

dim bane
#

ok

cinder sorrel
#

c=0 in this question also

dim bane
#

Right

cinder sorrel
#

because it said its empty at the begining

#

490.986

dim bane
#

So, I don't know what we do from there.

#

What do we do with that antiderivative

cinder sorrel
#

we have the function

#

plug t for 6

#

and calculate the Q(6)

#

the antiderivative one

#

wait let me recheck

dim bane
#

( sin600(pi(6)/12) )/ pi + 50(6)

cinder sorrel
#

yeah it is

#

thats the answer

#

wait

dim bane
#

Sorry, not good at LaTeX yet. Just started using it the other day in a computer science class.

cinder sorrel
#

yeah

#

it doesnt matter

#

i myself prefer writing equations directly

#

but yeah

#

its equal to 490.986

dim bane
#

is giving me299.57

cinder sorrel
#

sin 600?

#

its 600 sin

dim bane
#

๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ

cinder sorrel
#

we've been doing derivatives for too long we cant let such mistake ruin it all ๐Ÿ˜…

dim bane
#

b. Find the function that gives the amount of water in the reservoir over the intervalโ€‹ [0,t]

cinder sorrel
#

yeah thats the just the antiderivative function

dim bane
#

Would be 50[ 1 + cos (pi(6) / 12)] ?

#

Oh

cinder sorrel
#

nope

cinder sorrel
#

i would say we need to calculate the amount of water

#

use this

dim bane
#

Yeah part c is asking how many hours it takes to fill it

#

3500 is the capacity

cinder sorrel
#

q(t)=3500

dim bane
#

so set the function equal to 3500?

cinder sorrel
#

yep

#

and solve for t

dim bane
#

We dont sub t out for 3500 in the function?

cinder sorrel
#

we dont plug for t

#

we solve for it

#

leave as it as

#

and set the function equal to 3500

dim bane
#

Gives me no answer

cinder sorrel
#

put x instead of t and retry?

dim bane
#

Still no solution

cinder sorrel
#

the answer is 70.99

#

or 71

dim bane
#

How did you go about it

cinder sorrel
#

70.9942

dim bane
#

I get that, but the formula?

cinder sorrel
#

out function = 3500

#

this

dim bane
#

Weird, wonder why it wasnt computing no my end.

cinder sorrel
#

try a different calculator

dim bane
#

Thank you for your time and guidance.

fallow badger
#

can someone explain the lim t-->infinity to me

fallow badger
#

why does it go to zero

vague coral
#

I believe s-k is positive, and the limit of exp(-x) when x goes to infinity is always 0

alpine sable
# fallow badger can someone explain the lim t-->infinity to me

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.

ocean sealBOT
#

Pencil

alpine sable
#

Hence the answer

alpine sable
# ocean seal **Pencil**

Also any constant times ยฑinfinity tends to ยฑinfinity too, hence the first part of my answer

fallow badger
#

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

fallow badger
alpine sable
#

I believe that was deliberately done to get rid of the $e^{\infty}$ indeterminate

ocean sealBOT
#

Pencil

alpine sable

That's basically just algebraic manipulation

oh ok isee

#

thanks

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 ?

vague coral
#

Or calcul de la marge d'erreur

vestal quartz
#

donc c'est juste de donner une majoration et s'ils nous demandent de calculer on calcule la valeur exacte ?

vague coral
#

C'est quoi le contexte ? Suite numerique ?

lone heartBOT

@vestal quartz Has your question been resolved?

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

d'accord

so I've got #1 and it seems pretty straight forward

#

just that $\hat \lambda = \frac{1}{\bar x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

my teacher assures me its just notation for the second portion but im having a very hard time understanding

#

I think its something like

#

$\sqrt n (g (\frac{1}{\hat \lambda} ) - g (\bar x) ) \to N(0, g'(\frac{1}{\lambda})^2 \sigma ^2 )$

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

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?

ocean sealBOT
#

IAttemptToIntegrate

#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

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

ocean sealBOT
#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

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?

ocean sealBOT
#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

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 thonk

#

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

ocean sealBOT
#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

this is what we have

#

$\hat \lambda = \frac{1}{\bar x}$ estimating $\lambda$ in $f(x) = \lambda e^{- \lambda x}$ for $\vec X \sim Exp(\lambda)$

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

yea

#

oh, so we'd want to use a transformation on the MLE to get at bar x?

#

๐Ÿ‘€

#

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 $\bar x - \mu$?

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

then just determine what the transformation has done to screw up the variance if anything

#

of this new distribution

ocean sealBOT
#

IAttemptToIntegrate

#

IAttemptToIntegrate

remote heron
#

alright

#

so then $g( \hat \lambda ) = \bar x$

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

implies id want to do $g (\hat \lambda) - g(\frac{1}{\mu})$ providing $\bar x - \mu$

#

i think

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

lemme try writing it out

#

hmm

#

i need $\sigma ^2 (\lambda)$

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

do I use $L( \lambda ; \vec x) = \lambda ^n e^{- \lambda \sum x_i}$?

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

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

ocean sealBOT
#

jan Niku

remote heron
#

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 $g( \bar x) - g(\mu)$
