when do I use the integral symbol with a circle in it and when don't I?
from what I understand, it's a line integral along a closed curve that's positively oriented, but aren't both positively oriented?
why use the circle integral symbol for 4. but not 5. ?
@sturdy glen Has your question been resolved?
The "circled" notation is optional
So yeah, you could use it for 5.

i am confused on the u-substitution here. how does u^(3/2) come to be?
Solve for x in terms of u
x^2 = 1-u...
ah that makes more sense
either i missed something or i was never taught to do that because i havent seen anyone do that yet. thank you so much!!!

I get what it represents (like the (x+h) thing) but since it's in the denominator i don't really understand what I'm meant to do with it, I tried plugging in h to every deltax and evaluating it but that was also wrong so im just confused
well you recognized it is in the form of the definition of a derivative
so by that, you should know what your function is
tbh you don't even need to do any math, you should know what the graph of this function looks like
i don't though
I know its in the form of a derivative but would that make it 3(x)^-1 ?
do i take the derivative of that or
weird way of writing 3/x but yes, that's the function
if you really don't know the graph of it's parent function then you should try getting a common denominator and simplifying, see how it works out for you
I graphed it and i get infinity but that's not the correct answer
yes it is
and yea i write it that way just cause it makes more sense to me
webassign doesnt like the answer π
well "infinity' isn't the correct answer
when we write a limit "equals" +-infinity, we're saying the limit DNE while describing it's behavior
so (if the answer does not exist, enter DNE)
dne is also not the answer though
I got dne earlier and tried it already
does not want
hm
well ain't that something
i'd argue that it's wrong
,w limit as x approaches 0 from the right of 3/x
indeed your website is wrong
it's something about the way its written then that's making it different
we never covered this kind of problem in class and i really need this right
if you're dumb then im moreso
let me write somethin real quick
π ty for the help so far
oh yeah i'm mad dumb
this whole time i've been thinking "x is approaching 0 from the right hur dur" yet literally the first thing i said to you was "you noticed it was definition of derivative π "

it is quite literally just taking the derivative of 3/x
OH
ok im stupid t oo
because i tried that earlier and i did the derivative of 3/x wrong...
THANK YOU that was correct

Could anyone suggest me how to approach this mathematics IA HL and comment if its suitable for an investigation
So basically I want to find
Basically I want to find the fastest way down this track from the top sattele to the bottom reinswald using the bellman-ford graph
The weightings will be the time it takes to ski down a particular track so as we can see there are red trails blue trails and black etc
and they have a particular angle which will influence how steep the slope is so the velocity
and then the length of each trail i take from google earth
and at the end i use the bellman ford algorithm to find the quickest way down
Would really appreciate some feedback on it
or does it seem too "SL"

my uncle sent me this but im a lil confused
i suppose its saying that 20% of the pocket money = 240
thats what im understanding rn
and im a lil struggling about b)
the way it's phrased implies that she spent 20% of her pocket money on top of $240
if x is the amount of pocket money, yes
though this feels like insufficient info
well my first idea is
the 20% is refering to the 240
and apparently my uncle said the answer of a) is 4k
which im
to understand how
240+0.2x = 1.3y
wait, hold on.
maybe what was meant is
that she spent $240 on books, and 20% of pocket money on stationery
bruh no shot
imma try that theory
bc if its like that, there should be a respectively
else it gonna be scuffed as hell
oh crap you are right

weren't you alr given the source tho
Oh
Wasn't able to find the solution online
have you made any progress on this yourself or are you stuck not knowing how to begin
have you made a diagram?
Yes that's the only thing I did but I didn't knew how AD can be written as m/n like do you use trigno ratios or what specifically?
can you show your diagram
it should be clear to you that your real goal is to find AD; the "written as m/n with m and n coprime" is just a crutch to force the answer to be a positive integer (for whatever reason)
do you understand that much at least
y/n
Yeah definitely that's understandable
ok
?
that stands for "yes or no"
Oh ok
also your 1 looks very easy to misread as 2, just saying
Yeah I should make it like the classic I shaped
anyway, ok, so your diagram seems not to include D
Thanks for the advice
Yeah I didn't got the concept of ray like where is a ray
They are line segments
Ray AC but AC is a segment
Sorry idk this sounds too stupid but I didn't got thatπ
@vale wigeon sir?
don't call me sir.
Ok
would you call a woman sir?
...i don't like being called ma'am either but whatever
this is what your diagram should look like
Ok
Oh
do you see how to proceed from here or should i go into more detail
So basically AD here is m/n
forget about m and n
Ok
you read this and you said you understood it but then it went right out of your head
Like I understand this diagram very well but what next
No m/n where m and n are co prime is because it stands for a fraction instead of a non fractional integer
sigh
Like that's what I understood
look at the diagram again.
Sorry no?
our goal is to find AD.
do you see how you can say something about one of the angles here?
something trigonometric.
yes
Yeah if we got CD it's pretty easy to get AD then
you don't need CD!!!
I said the opposite wait
getting CD will be more effort than it's worth.
Oh ok
the problem has been reduced to finding the value of tan(3a) knowing that tan(a) = 1/5
which is pure trigonometric bashing and nothing else
Yes
do you know the angle sum identity for tan
Angle sum identity for tan? Can you explain what do you mean?
do you know how to express tan(x+y) in terms of tan(x) and tan(y)?
??
so you don't know $\tan(x+y) = \frac{\tan(x)+\tan(y)}{1 - \tan(x)\tan(y)}$?
But not with variables
Ann
No I didn't knew that thanks for letting me know right now
then you do not have the right tools to do this problem, i'm afraid.
Oh
Ah but can you continue further I'll just keep this tan(x+y) in my mind till then
i don't want to keep going with one hand tied behind my back
that's what it'll be like to find tan(3a) in terms of tan(a) without using angle sum and/or double angle identities for tan
Oh
Ok I'll learn about them today
And probably that'll just help me solve it
Thanks for your time

how do i find the value of x y and r of special angles?
<@&286206848099549185>
^^"
sorryy
you draw a right angled triangle for each.
and/or familiarize yourself with unit circle
i dont really have time to familiarize myself with the unit circle π our activity is due today
were supposed to look for the 6 trigonometric functions using the x y and r of special angles
but i cant find the value of x y and r
Do you know what are the special angles?
30 45 and 60
And 0 and 90
yeaa
wdym?
Nvm i thought of something else
ohh lol
this is our homework
but i dont know the value of x y and r that's why i cant find the trigo functions
yes yes
Tell
y/x
idk t-t
ik the definition of tan, but idk the x y and r that's why i cant substitute it
i asked my classmate btw, is it this one?
It's fine, just draw a right angled triangle (with any lengths you like) with angle theta as 30Β°. Take the side (y) opposite to angle theta, and divide it by the side (x) adjacent to theta (not the hypotenuse). You'll always get the ratio 1/sqrt(3)
so if i try to look for the tan of 30 degrees, it's β3/3?
wait lemme try, i dont get it lol
yeah but i have to rationalize
Well, alright
For ease, take base of triangle 1 cm, angle theta as 30Β°. Use scale and protractor
To draw
Trigonometric functions for angle theta in case of right angled triangles are just the ratios of two sides of the triangle
ooooh
You understood right?
i dont rlly have a protractor, but i understand the following msg

What are pythagorean triples
A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b, and c, such that a2 + b2 = c2. Such a triple is commonly written (a, b, c), and a well-known example is (3, 4, 5). If (a, b, c) is a Pythagorean triple, then so is (ka, kb, kc) for any positive integer k. A primitive Pythagorean triple is one in which a, b and c are coprime (that is,...
A Pythagorean triple consists of three positive integers a, b and c such that a^2 + b^2 = c^2.
@lethal dock does this answer your question?
Yes but I dont really understand how the Euclid formula works in there
What does it refer to when it says m and n
given an arbitrary pair of integers m and n with m>n>0
So m and n can be anything, if I follow m>n>0
m and n can be any integers, so long as they are positive and m is bigger than n.

Help! We get 5$ from our teacher if we solve this if we solve this.
I get the steps for solving for absolute equations, but im stuck at whatever is in it.
how do I get the value for k?
ty ty..
As for the inside...
having a sqrt in there looks fun
idk, I would recommend graph sketch to get an idea
At least.
so fun π
As for algebra its π€ π€ π€ π€ π€ π€
I did, but still its an aberration
oiiiiii
$$\abs{x+\sqrt{1-x^2}} = \sqrt2(2x^2-1)$$
Shuri2060
take conjugate XD
The RHS is also π΅βπ«
Uhh
which one XD
Oh wait this is a fripping equation
:p
$\frac{|(2x^2 - 1)|}{|x-\sqrt{1-x^2}|} = \sqrt{2}(2x^2 - 1)$
Ansh
It is tricky, but I think it is really this way.
can you work from here?
still π΅βπ«
why is the numerator that way?
hmm?
da heck an identity
$$\abs{x+\sqrt{1-x^2}}\abs{x-\sqrt{1-x^2}} = ???$$
Shuri2060
This was the hint π
oooh.. then I just assume the absolutes are not there?
multiply to get a trinomial.. still inside the absolute?
what no
$\abs{x}\abs{y}=\abs{xy}$
Shuri2060
@alpine sable please post your question in an available channel.
yeah that was I was thinking.
sorry, didnt realise
how about the RHS?
would it give me k for free?
reffering to this
ignore this
oki oki
If I multiply get the conjugate on LHS, does that mean I should also multiply it on the RHS? or is it like multiplying by 1 case?
where I put it under the denominator.
you multiply both sides of the equation by the same thing?
just note multiplying by 0 could cause issues
yes.
so, would it be better if...
the right hand side of equality is $\sqrt{2}(2x^2 - 1)$
Ansh
ah I forgot the x^2.. sorry
And yes, this is fine. Simplify the left hand side denominator
this is what I got. I can't get the root out of the equation. I'm looping.
._.
This is the simplified LHS, I was able to cancel (2x^2 - 1).
Then I did conjugate again. then the result is above..
I don't think you're allowed to cancel (2xΒ² - 1) without any conditions lol
really, oof.. coz getting the simplified version of LHS got me (2x^2 -1)
so I thought they should cancel
$\abs{x+\sqrt{1-x^2}} = \sqrt2(2x^2-1)$
Ansh
$|x-\sqrt{1-x^2}| = \frac{|(2x^2 - 1)|}{\sqrt{2}(2x^2-1)}$
Ansh
Either ways, I think I probably know where you got this question from... And you're supposed to be practicing how to deal with absolute value functions
So
'Somehow, Palpatine returned' XD
I shouldn't walk you through any far than this
Not really lol. no
Yeah, but giving this to grade 8 is a bit demanding.
So let me just summarize the steps
Still, getting identities from who knows where and with only tools of equality and a bit of absolute. We were never meant to get that 5$ XD
one last ques
how did the (2x^2-1) get into the RHS's numerator
I get that's the conjugate, but something is missing for me.
I think after this its repetition of the conjugate steps.
$\abs{x+\sqrt{1-x^2}} = \sqrt2(2x^2-1)$ \
$\implies \abs{x+\sqrt{1-x^2}} \cdot \frac{\abs{x-\sqrt{1-x^2}}}{\abs{x-\sqrt{1-x^2}}} = \sqrt2(2x^2-1)$ \
$\implies \frac{|(2x^2 - 1)|}{\abs{x-\sqrt{1-x^2}}}= \sqrt2(2x^2-1)$
Ansh
You're free to think, if you're the next Sir Isaac Newton or LeBobbe Newton or something but my instructor always advised me to solve stuff on pen n paper ^^"
what I mean was the |x-sqrt(1-x^2)| will keep reappearing.
Ansh
bad.
Pencil and paper smh π
π
Sorry didn't read this.
hint: ||the right hands side in the last equation is free from the variable "x" as long as you know the right conditions for the absolute value function to disappear||
uhm so anyway, I won't take up much of your time.
Thanks for the steps. It propelled me closer. I guess we aren't suppose to get that 5$. It's a bonus question anyway.
will do!
wait... that means.. I can do this
hahaha.. alright alright.. ty ty π₯³

Could someone help me understand how to answer this question? I know the answer is dependent but I am not sure how to prove it mathematically.
@empty forge Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
@empty forge Has your question been resolved?
Our null hypothesis is indepedent, so that would mean that we would assume that the prob is the same for each job position
so find prob of that observation or a more extreme observation happening
@noble sinew Independet is not the same as evenly distributed and a null hypothesis has nothing to do with independence
what?
Two events A and B are independent, if $P(A \cap B)=P(A)P(B)$. So you just take to events, e.g. "Person is male" and "Person belongs to the Faculty and check whether P(Person is mal and part of Faculty)=P(Person is mal)P(Person is part of faculty)
Alexander42
yes job position is independent with gender?
use whatever test you have been taught to use on contingency table
No relationship between job and gender is the same as saying Job and gender are independent?
jes
so what is your problem?
i only know the null hypothesis from significance hypothesis testing and as far as i know, these tests aren't related to this problem.
so i thought that the term null hypothesis was unappropriate
Which is the same we are doing here
For example Chi square test for independence is 1 way (there are many tests for contigency tables)
This will give us a p-value, if less than 0.05 we reject they are independent
I assumed to randomly pick a person and then check for independence of the events to Pick a certain gender and job. with the formula i mentioned. I have never heard any lectures on statistics and i don't know Chi sqaure test or p-values, so i guess you have a different understanding of whats going on (and probably better one, as i don't see the connection to the hypothesis test i learned in school)
Another way to view it is we have a general model, this follows a multinomial distribution, where the parameters varies freely. Now we wish to test if we can simplify our model to a simpler model, namely prob is the same (so independent between job and gender).
We can accept our simplification of our model if prob of them being independent is p>=0.05
But we have two hypothesis, so this fits the definition of hypothesis-testing

@dense sleet All the strings you need to subtract contain ONLY 0,1,8
One string of seven is written on each coupon of the spring lottery with the inscription spring number
digits, from 0000000 to 9999999. If the coupon is rotated by 180β
, digits 0 and 8 are
they do not change, digits 6 and 9 pass into each other, and all other digits lose meaning.
Thus, the spring number 9980896 will rotate to 9680866. Such coupons, whose spring
numbers rotate by 180β change their decimal value, we consider invalid.
How many invalid coupons are there?
(Note: Coupon with spring number 8680898 or 0808080 is a valid coupon.)```
AND they need to be palindromic
What do you mean by that
And they need to contain at least one 6 or 9
0808080 is a valid combination
It should be all combinations - valid combinations
4β· - 4*4*4*2
But thats wrong
INVALID:
Choose 1st 3 digits. Must be from 0 1 8 6 9. Must contain at least one 6 or 9
Choost 4th digit. Must be from 0 1 8

Thus, the spring number 9980896 will rotate to 9680866. Such coupons, whose spring
numbers rotate by 180β change their decimal value, we consider invalid.
How many invalid coupons are there?
(Note: Coupon with spring number 8680898 or 0808080 is a valid coupon.)```
No.
All other digits lose meaning
It should be 0 1 6 8 9
1 is in other too
It says 0 and 8 stays same , 6 and 9 switch and all others loose meaning
Im guessing 1 is in the other
Why
0
You could say 0 is in other
????
All depends how you write it
For all intents and purposes
Usually 0, 1, 6, 8, 9
Are considered
Unless your question says otherwise
I mean we could try with 1 that would then be
5β· - 5 * 5 * 5 * 3
no it isn't.
===
INVALID:
Choose 1st 3 digits. Must be from 0 1 8 6 9. Must contain at least one 6 or 9
Choost 4th digit. Must be from 0 1 8
This is how to count.
Remove 1 if you want, but this is the correct method
surely?
You need to include the fact AT LEAST one 6 or 9
is contained.
Otherwise it is valid.
Well 609 is valid too
arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh nooo
In any case, what you wrote is not the correct counting method either
Need to think about it carefully
write down examples with only 3 digits
Inclusion Exclusion is probably the correct method
count valids maybe?
I mean a 3 digit digit is valid if first is one of 5 second is one of 3 and last must be firsz digit or opposite if 6 or 9
Invalid = all possible - valid
Yha, which 5 btw? 0, 6, 8, 9?
var l = [['0', '0'], ['1', '1'], ['6', '9'], ['8', '8'], ['9', '6']]
var invalid = 0
for (var a = 0; a < l.length; a++) {
for (var b = 0; b < l.length; b++) {
for (var c = 0; c < l.length; c++) {
for (var d = 0; d < l.length; d++) {
for (var e = 0; e < l.length; e++) {
for (var f = 0; f < l.length; f++) {
for (var g = 0; g < l.length; g++) {
if (`${l[a][0]}${l[b][0]}${l[c][0]}${l[d][0]}${l[e][0]}${l[f][0]}${l[g][0]}` !== `${l[g][1]}${l[f][1]}${l[e][1]}${l[d][1]}${l[c][1]}${l[b][1]}${l[a][1]}`) invalid++
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
invalid```
=====
(very primitive js program)
77750 or 16256
=====
So I agree with this counting method. 5^7 or 4^7 minus valid strings
5^7 - 5.5.5.3
4^7 - 4.4.4.2
@dense sleet Are neither correct ???
Exactly what you wrote
Its around 25k btw
Yes but idk how to get to it
Thats what i thought too
Can you give the exact given answer
26256
Surely must be typo
16256 makes perfect sense
Oh
unless 2 and 5
are considered opposites too???
Question is vague with how the numbers are written
Could it be 7 segment display?
Thats what im thinking too
Im goona ask today if its a typo

Hello, beginner problem here
How do i aproach this problem
xβ (0,pi/2)
cosx=1/5
Demonstrate that tanx=2β6
Draw a right angled triangle
did you label it
Label it with what? >-<
you're given a ratio with respect to angle x
I might be too dumb
But how does drawing a triangle prove that tanx=2β6
Isn't there a formula for this?
did you label it
That i can't find
yes
do you know the ratio for tangent
No
never heard of SOH CAH TOA?
how'd you know the ratio for cosine

@alpine sable .
- Make forwards statements throughout. Upon reaching the final answer, verify to make the final backwards statement, in order to do the same as above.
===
Construct me an example where this does not work please.
I am serious.
no
If I am wrong, then I need to know.
Do you need help?
Yes, when does this method of solving equations fail
What?
this is the method
wrong order
what???????
I'm confused as heck what you'are asking me to do here
You told me to solve x = 2 for x
Now solve the equation x=3
I am doing as above.
since x<2031 x=2
$$x = 2$$
$\implies$
$$x < 2031$$
tf
so now 2=3
Shuri2060
okay I need to create a more complicated example
π
If it really doesn't work, then I need to know.
Not joking, not being sarcastic.
solve x+2=5
Solution:
Since it's cloudy outside, x = 3
Verification:
3+2=5
It works
huh?
how is this a valid implication
cloudy does not imply x = 3
huh???
My point is you construct a solution using VALID implications
And then check the reverse by validating the answer
No, that is MY point
YOUR point is to make ANY implications and then as long as the verification is good, we're good
x+2=5
implies x+2-2=5-2
implies x=3
3+2=5, hence x=3 is a solution
what?
read your method 2 carefull
How do you interpret my point in such a way
carefully
Yeah, you're the one misinterpretting here flr
make VALID forwards statements throughout, clearly.
Why would anyone tell you to make invalid statements, that's implicitly implied
Closed by @pale kestrel

The weather is a quintessential part of doing math btw \s
In the question whence this dialogue came
.reopen epic snipe
β
You did not say to verify that both expressions should be positive
You don't need to.
I don't get it.
As long as your implications are valid
Then uh... I don't see what can go wrong, really.
sqrt{} is defined for any real number, some you just get iR
Invalid implications are just bad math. Rather than bad method.
the only check needed is if the thing inside is well defined, which it clearly is
Oh great, I needed another weather forecast
when you square x you have to do three operations
Let $x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$.\\
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$$
I can't math, 1 sec.
hah
exactly ou can't XD
12+2sqrt() no?
yes
probably
Shuri2060
π
there ya go
Yeah
yh ok, step 1 successful
okay
but yeah, regardless there's nothing wrong with that step in practice
π
now what do you do
move 12 to the left
the problem is the next step
and square again? idk
exactly : )
$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{(6+4\sqrt{2})(6-4\sqrt{2}})$
Ansh
?
I mean I haven't ACTUALLY tried the questoin but imo that isnt bad
Thanks Ansh
da heck
I'd just simp the radicals from diff of two squares ^
Let $x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$.\\
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$$
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{36 - 32}$$
The step that Ansh took is the one I was talking about
Shuri2060
I hope I did that right?
You did
π€
You're implying that's wrong because $\sqrt{6 - 4\sqrt{2}}$ can be negative and we can't combine the two square roots together?
Ansh

combine is not defined
Let $x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$.\\
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$$
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{36 - 32}$$
$\implies$
$$x^2 = 16$$
$\implies$
$$x = 4\quad\lor\quad x = -4$$
you used the property sqrt(a)*sqrt(b)=sqrt(ab)
Shuri2060
that is the problem
Then $\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5} \neq \sqrt{10}$?
or implying that we made a mistake of not checking whether 6-4sqrt(2) ad 6+4sqrt(2) are positive?
Ansh
I wonder
correct
In actual writing I should 'justify' my implications but...
hm
There is nothing wrong with them, mathematically.
You will straight up get a wrong answer if a and b are negative
and get a correct answer accidentally if one of them is negative
yeah it fails when they're both negative.... but that isn't relevant here
how so?
cause they're both positive
that is strongly implied and I didn't feel the need to mention that 6 -4sqrt(2) is approximately 6-5.7 and clearly positive
you decided to do the genius step of verifying your step
in the explanation
that is what was required
It's not required though
then get a wrong result
what you are doing here is called checking
which is what you need to do
Gosh if someone verifies that 6 \pm 4\sqrt{2} are positive in my homework
.. i might write a comment saying "please omit trivial details, i have 500 people to grade"
6>0 4sqrt(2)>0
their sum is positive
Everything is trivial until you make a mistake
That is your philosophy
No
How do you not know that on top of your head?
You do math, you know numbers, simple as
i was even being generous

Not every single step needs, nor should be, explicit imo
If you have n-digit approximations of square roots in your head then ok
cause then your work becomes clunky
but the guy who asked the question does not
I didnt do any square root approximation
Let $x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$. Then\\
$$x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}$$
$\iff$
$$x = \sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}+\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}\quad\land\quad x \geq 0$$
$\iff$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{6+4\sqrt 2}\sqrt{6-4\sqrt 2}\quad\land\quad x \geq 0$$
$\iff$
$$x^2 = 12 + 2\sqrt{36 - 32}\quad\land\quad x \geq 0$$
$\iff$
$$x^2 = 16\quad\land\quad x \geq 0$$
$\iff$
$$x = 4$$
whatever this discussion is fruitless
Shuri2060
Yep. this is called checking
It isnt
How is this for a bidirectional proof?
what I said needed to be done
Logically sound imo
okay then 36 does not exist?
Sure you can check it in your head i guess
whatver
close this
K, stop putting words in peoples mouths
excessive rigour
for me I saw the expression and I saw all the steps and arrived at 4
yeah, and we all arrived at 4 too
g4u, want a cookie?
so then you are suggesting that the guy who asked should write "4"
and get full points,
I am just saying the requirements that are likely expected by the school
This discussion is moronic
No we are saying something as trivial as sqrt(36) > sqrt(32) can be omitted
bye
You cant say shit about their expectations
It really is
That inequality is verified in the backwards proof anyways
If I'm not mistaken
That 3rd last line going to the 4th last line
verifies it.
Yeah
oh no but based on your explanation you seemed to imply you "know" that
sqrt(6-4sqrt(2)) is 2 - sqrt(2)
and not sqrt(2) - 2
you didn't feel the need the check that

You omitted that 4 >= 0 this is so wrong

$$ 3*(a+b) / ( 3a+b) $$
Big xdddd
Big xdddd
i can write it like this: $$ 3a /(3a+b) + 3b /(3a+b) $$
Big xdddd
but this wont help
so the actual problem is that i want to proof that:
$$ 3(a+b)/(3a+b) <= b $$
Big xdddd
,w graph 3(x + 1) / (x + 3) and x between -5 and 5
i can write $$ 3a+3b/(3a+b) $$
Big xdddd
and then i can estimate that too
$$ 3+b/(3+b) $$
Hmm. Looks like the sign flips a few times.
Big xdddd
So the thing you are trying to prove is false.
nah its correct
this works

2ce^-c^2 = -1/2e^4 + 1/2 solve for c
$2ce^{-c^2} = -\frac{1}{2e^4} + \frac{1}{2}$ ?
Ansh
this?
@limpid garnet Has your question been resolved?
@limpid garnet e and c are just variables ?
I think i got a question above my level π
I thought it was just variable and try solving it

And got something weired
it sll hoof
Huh ?

,w 2xe^(-x^2) = -1/(2e^4) + 0.5
x ~ 0.5!?
Can i ask u the value of e if any ?
?
2.71828 ?
Pucky
sorry what is this
what is x when (3x+2)^2=4
my work
2x+2=β4
3x+2=2
3x=0
x=0
this answer was right but my math book said it was 0 or -4/3
$2ce^{-c^2} = -\frac{1}{2e^4} + \frac{1}{2} = K$, say
$$\implies 4c^2e^{-2c^2} = K^2$$
$$\implies (-2c^2) = W(-K^2/2)$$
$$\implies c = \sqrt{-\frac{W_0(-K^2/2)}{2}}$$
Ansh
,calc -1/(2e^4) + 1/2
Result:
0.49084218055563
,w W(-0.49^2/2)
dont u take the ln
Well, you can't separate the variable "c" from e^{-c^2} here
ok then how do we bring the -c^2 down
we can use the Lambert W function here to solve for "c"
sorry how do you use lambert function never heard of it before
btw, where'd you get this equation from?
if I know some context, maybe it's just a troll question or smth?
It one of my homework problem
Is it explicitly written to solve for "c", the equation: \
$2ce^{-c^2} = -\frac{1}{2e^4} + \frac{1}{2}$ ?
Ansh
no it a mean value theorem
