this is as close as i could give away
Hello.
@pine kettle hmm and ?
Yep
Hot ACD but CAD
That makes AC = CD
@pine kettle I've also gone up till that not I'm a bit confused
Hmm?
@pine kettle you still there man?

Angle subtended by a chord at center = double angle subtended at the corresponding arc
Yes
=> BD = diameter
Ok
Gotcha
@covert agate Here's a question
So all the other stuff was useless?
Prove that C is the center of the circumcircle of triangle ABD
it was useful
same problem, different takes
screw geometry 
Hmm but if we take the triangle inscribed in a circle it's useless
I agree 💯
i got 30°
Ahh

Man so what would the answer be
construct AE, find a bunch of angles
$$\frac{BC}{\sin(x + 40)} = \frac{AC}{\sin x}$$ and $$\frac{AD}{\sin 40} = \frac{AC}{\sin 20}$$
pretty easy to solve now 
Indeed 😊
solve for cot x and you get a huge ass mess
welp, that's a disappointment tbh
figure an elegant way through this
there is one
through tan x = (sin 40)/(2 cos 20 - cos 40)?
Yes
cos 20 + cos 20 - cos 40
cos 20 + 2 sin 30 sin 10
cos 20 + sin 10
cos 20 + cos 80
2 cos 50 cos 30
√3 cos 50
(sin 40)/(√3 cos 50)
1/√3
x = 30°
(yey my solution was right)
not elegant enough
what yuck lol
.
$\implies \tan(x + 20) = \tan(30) \tan(20) \tan(80)$
the hell
There's a very nice identity that applies here, at this step
how ;-;
what I did was basic algebra tbh, combined with trig identities
can’t see it directly
$$\frac{\sin(40+x) + \sin(x)}{\sin(40+x) - \sin(x)} = \frac{\sin 40 + \sin 20}{\sin 40 - \sin 20}$$
can’t see this either 
oml
this is literally the first step derived from the previous equation
$$\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \qty(= \frac{a+c}{b+d} = \frac{a-c}{b-d}) \implies \frac{a+b}{a-b} = \frac{c+d}{c-d}$$

oh i’m so sorry omg
oh my god i’m so sorry i should’ve waited i totally understand

usually a good idea is to split into polygons you know the area of
try splitting it into triangles

can i get help here
so my what my teacher did is
he found the slope for the line in the equation and then divided the -1 to that slop
which i dont understand why is he using two slopes and how is dividing -1 gives the slope
Because that's how you find the slope for a line perpendicular
if m is the slope of a line, the slope of a line perpendicular to it (normal line) is -1/m
Parallel lines have the same slope, perpendicular is the negative reciprocal
oh now i get it
so -1 is a not because of of the point (2,-1)?
No

How to construct a rectangle when sum of two adjacent sides and one diagonal are given?
Anyone?
(the sum of (two adjacent sides)) and (one diagonal) or
(the sum of (two adjacent sides) and (one diagonal))?
so do you know two values or one
second option
the thing is that there is no value, i could choose the values myself
yea
and the perimeter is given in the form of a length segment?
(because you told us to 'construct')
yea
hmm
one way is to 12-sect the segment
then make a 3-4-5 triangle
there are many sufficing triangles but i think this is the easiest
a and b are the side lengths of adjacent sides of the rectangle?
yes
then it's infinitely easier right
just pick a point on the line segment
then make a rectangle
first I should draw a line which length represents the sum of a and b, than I should draw a line which represents the diagonal, so using these 2 lines I should construct
a rectangle
wait, you're now given the sum of a and b, and the diagonal?
yea technically
bruh that's the first option then
you have any ideas?
AC = diagonal, AB = sum of adjacent sides
ok
basically you want to find the point P on segment AB such that when we draw the circle with midpoint P through B and intersect with the perpendicular line through P to AB in Q to get right triangle APQ with AP+PQ = AB for which Q lies on the circle with midpoint A and radius AC
if that makes sense to you
you want to find P such that Q lies on the big circle
right
because then AQ = AC so the diagonal is AC
yes
notice that PB = PQ and QPB = 90deg so PBQ = 45deg
so we can intersect the line that makes a 45deg intersection with AB with the big circle
and find Q
then it's easy from there to construct P
and so the rectangle
I see
yea only the position would be different
APQR is your rectangle
notice that we can all do this with compass and straightedge
(e.g. 45deg angle is a right angle + angle bisector)
you can try it on paper even :)
I will

there are supposed to be 4 answers to this
my attempt is two spread the power to-> [2^(1/2)]*[-1^(1/8)]
but that doesnt work
or does it
idk
cum, answer
answer, cum
ping
cum
so first we do this for formatting
[(-4)^{\frac{1}{4}}=\sqrt{2}(-1)^\frac{1}{4}]
now we solve for [(-1)^{0.25}]
[\sqrt{2}(-1)^\frac{1}{4}=\sqrt{2}(\cos(π+2πk)+i\sin(π+2πk))]
Scythe
via de moivre's theorem,
actually, nvm, since this is how you get factors
and you want the root. Very sorry abotu this.
its okay 🙂

Given a group A with an associative operation <>, an identity element id, and a function inv : A -> A s.t. ∀a : A. a <> inv a = id && inv a <> a = id, can it be shown that ∀a : A. inv (inv a) = a?
why must you word it this way?
is that how the original question is given?
Could you not just ask:
For a group $G$, can it be shown for all $g\in G$, $(g^{-1})^{-1}=g$?
Shuri2060
That works too
The way you wrote it was such pain to comprehend 
And yes, you can prove it.
Try.
Any ideas how to start
I think the existence of inv does imply that that λx -> a <> x is injective
So we have that inv a <> inv (inv a) = id and inv a <> a = id, so then you can extract that inv (inv a) = a
None. Just piddling around with groups. I'm writing my own Prelude for Haskell
From the multi-character names?
Shuri2060
Would this be comprehendible to you
Yes
this is usually how the inverse law might be written
Ok, you can get what you want immediately from this
I will write it a bit more formally, though
If the below statement holds for some $g\in G$,
$$(\exists h\in G)(gh = hg = e)$$
we say this $h$ is the inverse of $g$, and denote $g^{-1} = h$
Shuri2060
(You usually start with the group axioms and then prove all inverses are unique, so the notation g^-1 is well defined)
So if h satisfies the above criteria
we call h: g^-1
Now using this exact definition
We are able to justify (g^-1)^-1 = g
We have the above holds for any g
Hence g is also the inverse of g^-1
Therefore (g^-1)^-1 = g
The uniqueness of the inverse is what I wasn't sure about at first. It's weird, because even though I feel like I did prove the uniqueness, it hasn't really sunk in
Right
So the first 2 things you usually prove
Are unique identity
and then unique inverses
Suppose we have identities a and b
then a*b = a and a*b = b
Hence a = b
Suppose for some g in G, we have inverses a and b
Then ga = e
Then b(ga) = be
Then (bg)a = b
Then ea = b
Then a = b
We generally omit the group operation * and write it like multiplication
And now you have proven inverses are unique
You can assume the notation g^-1 for the inverse of g
If you like, you can consider the ^-1 operation to be a bijective function
inv : G -> G, denoted by ^-1
The group axiom shows surjectivity. The uniqueness shows it is a well defined function. To show injectivity you need a little more.
This is a little harder to parse. Is this right:
Given inverses a and b of g:
By right-inverse
ga = e
Left multiplication by b:
b(ga) = be
(Added) by identity:
b(ga) = b
By Assoc.
(bg)a = b
By left-inverse
ea = b
By left-identity
a = b
yes if i were to write out my reasoning
Then ga = e (a is inverse)
Then b(ga) = be (left * by b)
Then (bg)a = be (associativity)
Then (bg)a = b (e is identity)
Then ea = b (b is inverse)
Then a = b (e is identity)
Yes
left-inverse/identity is more precise

Expectation is linear. That is:
E[Y] = E[1/k(Z - m)] = 1/k E[Z] - m
okay i gave it another go
but idk if i m supposed to get a concrete number??
i found k as an attempt to go somewhere with this but got stuck :"))
the wording of the question seems to imply that you already have the mean and variance of Z
is it not somewhere in a-e?

A group of 6 women and 9 men must select a four-person committee. How many committees are possible if it must consist of the following:
a. At most of 3 men?
How do i do this? 15C3?
You can do the opposite
If I'm not mistaken the final answer should be 1170
Ok so do you know what is combination though?
Yes
1365?
Yeah yeah
I actually expect you to say 15C4, but is ok
Now the four can me at most 3 men
Which means we have four cases
First case is none ot them is man
Second is only one
Third only two
And fourth only three
There are two ways to solve it
One is calculate the ways of getting at most 3 men
Another way is just take all the possible way minus will the all the four people are men
Can you show me how u will do it if this is what you use?

f(x)=2/(3+e^x)
I suck at Domains and Ranges a bit, how would I solve this easily?
is a calculator necessary?
no, you do not need a calculator here.
you might find it helpful to note that your function is monotone (specifically, monotone decreasing) which will help a lot with finding the range
it is also helpful to note that e^x is always positive, so 3 + e^x is also always positive and so no division by zero will ever occur
yeah it's decreasing but how would you write this
write what
it's monotone decreasing right? but how would you write this out in set notation or something
is it the same as the domain anyway?
set notation is not appropriate to write "f is monotone decreasing"
no, the statement that f is monotone decreasing is not the same as the statements "the domain of f is ___" or "the range of f is ___"

Can someone explain why it can go from top to below
persumably you have Y = aX + b?
This is regarding linear transformation of a random variable
Yes
But i dont understand why sigma y P(Y=y) can change to sigma x P(X=x)
they replaced y with ax + b
Y = y thus become Y = ax + b, which is equivalent to aX + b = ax + b, which is equivalent to X = x
why would E(Y) become E(X)
we're only messing with the right hand side here.
The expected value of X is the sum of x*P(X=x), not (ax+b)*P(X=x) ; as Ann said, only the RHS is manipulated here
yea so the expected value of Y is the sum of y*P(Y=y) right?
so how come we can just plug P(X=x)

The correct sketch is one on the left, my sketch is on one on the right
It seems in the correct sketch, there is a concavity change
How would I infer this without finding further derivatives?
well you know that y'(0) = 0
but for x close to 0 you have y' > 0
so the derivative is increasing, at least locally

oh ok
Do you know how to factor a root?
do you know factor theorem
ye
do you know polynomial division
no
do i need it for this?
i found this video
the factored form he got looks like how i should get it
but i dont get how he got it
this is the answer btw
You do kind of need it for this (well, it makes things simpler)
So yeah, find a good resource on long division/polynomial division (same thing, different term)
But the crux of the problem is that if you know P(k)=0, then you can write P=(X-k)Q with Q another polynomial

Please clarify what your question is, what exactly you have tried so far, and where you are stuck.
What you've sent so far is an equation with nothing else.
Okay, so you wish to solve for the unknown variable x here?
yes
Alright.
Maybe they wanted clarification
@sour sparrow do you need help with anything else?
It's ok

This is the question
what is this?
r
Completing the square works, but it would be much easier to instead expand the right
ohk
The steps look good. Not too easy to check for no mistakes
Im not too sure how to do that tbh, I got this from pacing a video, could u show how to complete it with expansion?
You can complete the square but you can't expand a binomial? That's very, very backwards haha
Have you heard of FOIL or rainbow method or something similar?
never
Give FOIL a quick Google imo
Not my kind of thing. Perhaps someone else might.
(x-r)^2 =x^2-2xr+r^2
and then u times that by q
qx^2-2qxr+qr^2
and then just add 7 at the end
it's q(x-r)^2+7 right
so u expand (x-r)^2 first
and then times that by q
and then add 7
can u solve the whole thing with expansion, I want to study the steps thoroughly to understand
like with numbers
huh?
like can u solve it with numbers normally
like i did, but i used square, can u use expansioon
thank you
3x^2-12x+p=q(x-r)^2+7
3x^2-12x+p=q(x^2-2xr-r^2)+7
3x^2-12x+p=qx^2-2qxr-qr^2+7
qx^2=3x^2
q=3
-2*3xr=-12x
-6xr=-12x
r=2
-3*2^2+7=p
p=-5
u might wanna check ur p again
?
u r very welcome
@versed elm
sorry, but could you explain with words what u did
I apologise for bothering
it's okie
the main concept here is expanding square
so something that is in the form of (a-b)^2 can be expand as a^2-2ab-b^2
because (a-b)^2=(a-b)(a-b)
and you would have a(a-b)-b(a-b)
and so on
like the others said, check foil method and try to understand what's going on in that method
then it should be a lot easier
oh so its mostly based off of foil
yeah tbh I didn't learn it with foil and I can't remember how I learned it cuz it was ages ago so I can't explain it....QwQ, but I googled foil and it's a great method , 120% recommending
okok bett
okie, try to do the problem after searching up

d(x^4)=4x^3dx
oh okok
So (1/4) dt/sqrt(1+t) where t=x^4 and (2(sqrt(1+t))’=1/sqrt(1+t) that’s why you have 1/2, (1/4)*2
what about 41
okok thx
41 is not hard better you figure it out yourself, using 3=e^(In3)
And (t^a)^b=t^(ab)
thankyou!

any ideas how to solve this liimit
?
probably is meant to Lhospital rule
type is like 1^(does not exist), i dont know how to move further
Ansh
Ansh
Yes.
And I hope you can now solve the limit within the bracket pretty conveniently
still I dont get it, how did you come up with this form
i ended up with e^( (1/x) ln((1+x)^1/x/e))

Do you know the definition of the remainders?
what's the earliest thing you don't understand?
$e^x$ ?
riemann
I can't see what you're looking at. either take a picture or screenshot
what in the convoluted taylor remainder formula is this
do you have a name or textbook source for this result
oh ok maybe it's this one
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taylor's_theorem#Explicit_formulas_for_the_remainder
"Lagrange and Cauchy forms of the remainder"
Show the other two
I really doubt it's the one in your picture
Probably peano
or lagrange actually
Do you have one that looks like this?
Alright I think you can start calculating pieces of it then
Every term in the remainder has the nth derivative. Take the derivative of your function and evaluate at your specified c
@hasty bramble Has your question been resolved?
if you can find in your notes a remainder that looks like this, you're basically done. or maybe if you find what your $\varepsilon(x^{n+1})$ equals we can help. You just need to show your $R_3$ is nonnegative for all $x$, which is pretty easy.

$S = M_n(\mathbb{R}$ where $n \geq 2$ and $A \star B = \frac{1}{2} (AB + BA)$
what are you trying to show? this is a group?
Right but you specified a relation $\star$ and want to compute its inverse
riemann
so you're just trying to find the inverse?
No, I'm trying to determine whether the inverse exists
I've just defined a set and a binary operation
If S were a group, then by definition an inverse would exist
Right
If an inverse exists, I'd imagine I want to find some way to find a way of expressing it
If it doesn't, I'd want to find some matrix A that has no inverse, I suspect
I'm a little stuck on moving past $AA^{-1} + A^{-1}A = 2Id_n$
Waes (Wires)
Plenty of matrices don't even have inverses
so is that enough?
or did you mean $GL_n(\R)$ instead of just all square matrices?
riemann
Nah I did mean $M_n(\mathbb{R})$
Waes (Wires)
ik GL(n, C) is a group under matrix mult.
Then how do you know $A^{-1}$ exists?
riemann
This might be a notation thing
So you don't mean inverse matrix?
No
I mean the inverse under the star function I defined
i.e. A*B = 1/2 (AB + BA)
Although maybe that should extend?
Probably don't want to use that notation then
Unfortunately it's exactly the notation my course uses
dafuq
Most of the group theory work done so far has not involved matrices tho so interpreting a^(-1) as the inverse of a under some given operator is not too difficult to grasp
But obvs this is confusing for matrices
can you take a picture of what the original question is asking for
I guess the inverse element under $*$ is the inverse of the matrix itself.
by this calculation
riemann
Yh I might have to go with that
And then ofc that means the inverse can't always exist (say if det A = 0)

I have a Poisson distribution task and managed to answer other questions but I have to give a probability of P(X>=3) (X takes a value of atleast 3). The lambda (or E(X)) is 2. I figured I have to calculate the sum 2^k / k! * e^-2 for all k values from 3 to infinity. As the k grows, this 2^k/k! gets smaller and smaller so it should be some kind of geometric progression and concentrate (idk the correct term) to some certain value? If so, how can I get the value, if not, how is it calculated?
$P(T \ge t)=e^{-\lambda t}$
Disorganized
In my case then it should be e^-6?
0.002478752176666... 🤔
this feels too easy
I did nastier shit than this in my undergrad
when this came up
I have a book at home but it isn't on me
<@&286206848099549185>
that's what I used
The answer doesn't match tho :/
what is the answer
0.323
P(T >= t) = 1 - P(T < t)
I am dumb 😦 I thought it like it and I had already calculated P(x<=3)
?
you already calculated the answer?
how.
I am expecting an integral
so we can sum-up the values from 0 to 3
Poisson distributions are discrete
^ yup
so it's just a sum of 3 terms or something small
but I remember doing something funky with the e 😛
did you get the right answer using this @astral breach ?
you reliably divide by the lagrangian or something
sec, jumped behind the desk
It should be correct yes. I just used previous answers probability (which was that X upmost value is 3 so P(X<=3) instead of P(X<3) and gave up as this seemed too easy anyways. Brain doesn't function correctly after 8 hours of studying >D
so you just did 1-previous answer?
yeah but I lost focust and didn't see it was <=3 not < 3
P(X>=3) = 1 - P(X<3) yes. Strictly smaller
Yes, it worked, thanks

Is this the correct negation:
y != 0 AND (y+1)/y is greater than or equal to 1
what's the original statement you're negating?
the image
y != 0 AND (y+1)/y is greater than or equal to 1
is the negation of the statement in the image
not(P => Q)
is
not((not P) or Q)
is
(not(not P)) and (not Q)

P and (not Q)

I don't know if you are able to help, but if you can, what is the time complexity of this code?
the code does nothing
doing nothing is a constant-time endeavor
unless you're a human in which case there's something known as fucking around
I think its more of a how many times does the code run type of thing
however, if the "Do Nothing" were replaced with something more meaningful
that'd be a different story
where the do nothing signifies O(1)
outer loop runs n/2 times, inner loop runs log(log(i)) times for each i
what would the overall complexity be though? thats where i'm stuck on
Use what Ann said
If the inner loop runs bank many times and that loop is ran blank many times, what would the time complexity be? (Think product)
do you mean that it is O(n)*O(log(log(n))?
which is O(n(log(log(n))))
I am confused as to what to put for i in log(log(i)) since i changes
how many values does i take on?
n/2 right?
the problem is, the inner loop depends on the current index of the outer loop
it doesn't seem as simple as multiplying outer * inner
yep
lmao

if you can write code, you can implement this with a counter and figure this out in <5 minutes

the time complexity of the upper limit
then evaluate the counter for 10^3, 10^4, 10^5 and you'll find a pattern

Set up a recursion equation whose solution describes the repayment of the baker's loan.
Set up a formula for calculating the debt at any time, n, where n = 1, 2, 3, ...
How many years must it take before the baker has repaid the loan
Use Binets formula to solve this:
