noble sinew
#

try applying that logic to the question

hazy knoll
#

so -150/52?

noble sinew
#

no not that

#

where did -150 come from?

hazy knoll
#

and thats how many off we are on each term on avg

#

oop

#

-182/52

noble sinew
#

yes

hazy knoll
#

-7/2

#

How can I use this information to find the mean

#

I just do 150 -7/2?

noble sinew
#

yes

hazy knoll
#

o nice

#

ok thx

#

Do I need the second equation for the variance

noble sinew
#

what?

hazy knoll
#

the question wants variance and mean

#

we calculated the mean

noble sinew
#

Seeing how its close to the definition of variance, yes

hazy knoll
#

if I divide the 2nd equation by n, in this case 52

#

that would be the forumla for variance right?

#

so Σ(m - 150)^2 / 52 = 34

hazy knoll
#

Can anyone help me calculated the variance

#

The mean is 146.5

smoky adder
#

see coding

#

like suppose m-150=d

#

the mean would be then for d

#

sumof(m-150)/52

#

that mean is equal to

#

the real mean (x)+a

#

and that a=150

#

since d=x+a

#

mean of (d)=mean of (x) + a

#

and then the variance u just get by the formula

#

square this formula to get the variance

#

and note that if u use sum of d^2/n and mean of d in this formula

#

you’ll get the same variance and standard deviation as if u used the sum of x^2/n and x

I don't understand how the explanation proves anything about what passes in front here

ornate heath
#

I found the same thing by using the equation $t_B\mathbf{v}_b=t_U\mathbf{v}_u+\mathbf{d}_i$ to find the point where their paths intersect and see how long it would take each to get there, but this method looks much neater

(Where t_B, t_U are the time it takes the boat and ship to reach the crossing point, v_B and v_u are the velocities, and d_i is the initial displacement between the two)

So i have found the value of k that is 1/8 now how do i proceed?

terse oak
little drum
# terse oak

P(0, Y < 0.5 | X = 1) = P(0 < Y < 0.5 && X = 1) / P(X = 1)

#

and you can integrate for the numerator and denom.

#

$$=\frac{\int_0^{0.5} k(1 + y) \dd y}{\int_0^2 k(1+y) \dd y}$$

are u certain this is the correct way? I mean does the denominator needs to be integeated from 0 to 2?

my bad for being incompetent. Let me rephrase myself a bit

tacit arch
#

You said the answer was 0.08, why

little drum
terse oak
#

am sorry

little drum
#

basically

#

the P(X = 1)

#

is the probability when your event rep. X is fixed, but your Y can vary in it's entirety

terse oak
little drum
#

so Y from 0 to 2 works

ocean sealBOT

Result:

0.625
terse oak
#

i see i understand, if there is nothing given bout y then we integrate it to its full extent

little drum
#

Also your partner should probably revisit integration

terse oak
#

huh, it came out to be 0.08

little drum
#

$\int (1 + y) = y + \frac{y^2}{2} \neq y + y^2$

ocean sealBOT
terse oak
little drum
#

okay: $$\frac{\int_0^0.5 (1+y)\dd y}{\int_0^2 (1 + y) \dd y} = \frac{0.5 + 0.5^2 \cdot 0.5}{2 + 2^2 \cdot 0.5}$$

#

I will try it, I remember I try it yesterday but nothing work

little drum
#

,w P(Z < -1.08)

alpine sable
#

0.14 = (120-122) / std, would that work ?

#

zscore = (observe value - mean) / std

#

why the picture changing so fast ?

little drum
#

._.

#

use: Area = P(Z ≤ -1.08) = 0.14

alpine sable
#

Here's a hint: using the z-table, you can find that the z-score for a height of 120 cm. Find the box with the value closest to 0.14, and you should see that occurs at the z-score -1.08.

If 120 is 1.08 standard deviations below the mean of 122, then what is the standard deviation?

#

this is a hint message

#

he got 1.08 from the zscore table

little drum
#

Yes I figured all of those without the hint. As you just saw

alpine sable
#

I could not understand the hint, I feel like its the answer

#

but its not an answer

#

Z = (120 - 122)/sd

Anyone can help me do this..pls

little drum
#

write x = that thing

#

square and write x² = x + that thing

#

and solve

oak perch
#

He means x^2=x+30

alpine sable
#

Why did we take X + 30

#

I guess I know what to do after that.. but I don't understand the starting

oak perch
#

There are infinitely many sqrt(30+) if you let that thing to be x, x^2-30 is just x with 1 sqrt(30+) deleted, which is still x

alpine sable
#

So if I get some other no. For eg like ✓15 + ✓15 + ✓15.. then x^2 = X+ 15 right?

oak perch
#

Yeah

gray isle
#

you really need parentheses there

alpine sable
#

After this we will get a quadratic equation.. then solve it right?

oak perch
#

Yeah

#

Choose the root which is greater than sqrt(30)

alpine sable
#

Thanks a lot

#

Answer is 6 I got it.

little drum
#

When I'm supposed to show that a polynomial, say x² + 1, is irreducible over Q, I'm assuming the definitive way is to show that there does not exist two linear factors (ax + b)(cx + d) of that polynomial.

little drum
#

I'm looking for an abstract algebra way of doing this ._.

pale kestrel
#

Factor theorem.

#

or spot i and -i split this in C

#

Therefore it cannot split in Q

little drum
#

wha

pale kestrel
#

(If it splits in Q, that means it splits in 2 different ways in C)

#

x² + 1 = (x + i)(x - i)

#

Factorisation is unique in C.

#

Or because its degree is 3 or less, if it has factors, at least one factor must be linear.

#

Then you can use the factor theorem - the linear factor must be (x+-1) (if it exists)

pale kestrel
#

K[x] is a euclidean domain if K is a field

#

Eucliean domain -> Unique Factorisation Domain

pale kestrel
little drum
#

wait I do not understand.. (x - 1)(x - 3) can be split in 2 different ways in C?

pale kestrel
#

what?

#

x² + 1 = (x + i)(x - i)

#

how

#

(x - 1)(x - 3) is written as a product of irreducible factors

little drum
#

"if it splits in Q, it splits in 2 different ways in C" were you talking about the x² + 1 in specific?

pale kestrel
vale sapphire
pale kestrel
#

If it splits in Q, x² + 1 can be written as (x+a)(x-b) for a, b in Q

#

But we already know one way it factorises in C

#

(x+i)(x-i) which does not have a, b in Q

#

So yes I was talking about this specific example

vale sapphire
#

but like, what did you mean by "two different ways in ℂ" ?

pale kestrel
#

Suppose, for contradiction we have

x² + 1 = (x+a)(x-b) for a, b in Q

#

We already know
x² + 1 = (x+i)(x-i) if we consider this polynomial in C[x]

little drum
#

then we have the contradiction argument on T_T

pale kestrel
#

C[x] is ED hence it is UFD. This is impossible.

little drum
#

Anyways, this one's kinda being convenient for Shuri with the +i , -i roots

pale kestrel
#

Well yh pick a better example lul

little drum
#

What about $$x^3 + 9x + 6$$

ocean sealBOT
pale kestrel
#

This is eisenstein.

little drum
#

:o

pale kestrel
#

You're just gonna have to remember it

little drum
#

proof where pandaOhNo

#

need proof for abs alg.

pale kestrel
#

The proof isn't v. hard but I can't remember it.

vale sapphire
#

Eisenstein's criterion is a tad tricky to prove actually

#

The cleanest way I remember it is using some modular arithmetic

pale kestrel
vale sapphire
#

It's nothing too bad once you have the tools, but the tools are convenient

pale kestrel
#

Statement.

little drum
#

Ik the statement

pale kestrel
#

Here.

little drum
#

and da heck is UFD ED QD UD wtvD

#

;-;

pale kestrel
#

I gave you the list before, just learn it lul

#

It will take a long time to understand why the inclusions work

#

so for now just learn it imo

little drum
#

remind me

#

what's R[x]

pale kestrel
#

R is a Ring

#

polynomials in x with things in R as coefficients

#

Rings
Integral Domains (ID) - no zero-divisors (ab = 0 implies a or b = 0)
Unique Factorisation Domains (UFD) - all factorisations are unique
Principal Ideal Domains (PID) - all ideals can be generated by one element
Euclidean Domains (ED) - euclidean algorithm exists
Fields

little drum
#

nu ;-;

#

if I learn those, I'd definitely most certainly not understand my already skipped lessons

pale kestrel
#

Well you need to learn the definitions regardless

#

As for the set inclusions, I cannot remember for most.

#

But you don't really need it for Galois stuff (the why, I mean. You just need to know the inclusions sometimes)

little drum
#

Aight √ I see first due to eisenstein

#

what is Q(√2)

vale wigeon
#

Q extended by sqrt(2)

frozen stump
#

all the scary math people are talking here

#

damn

pale kestrel
vale wigeon
#

you can think of it as Q[x] quotiented by the ideal (x^2 - 2)

pale kestrel
#

This is a really important theorem to know. Using it, you know it is just

little drum
#

Yeah I kinda know Q(√2) is extension of Q, and that Q[x]/(x² - 2)

pale kestrel
#

{a + b√2}
Because the theorem holds

little drum
#

but

#

sadcat it's really hard to understand how to arrive at {a + b√2}

#

or what exactly is meant by Q[x]/(x² - 2)

pale kestrel
#

One thing at a time then

#

Your 2nd question, think of it as polynomials in Q

#

1 + 0.5x + 3.5x^2 +... -2x^n

vale wigeon
#

you know how C = R[x]/(x^2 + 1)

#

same idea

pale kestrel
#

But you now need to mod them out by (x^2 - 2). You treat this as 0 (equivalence relation).

#

So basically, anything degree 2 or above can be reduced to degree 0 or 1

#

because euclidean algorithm. (K[x] polynomial ring where K is a field -> K[x] is an ED where you can apply the eucliean algorithm)

oak perch
#

Maybe Eisenstein. x^2+1 is reducible in Q iff it is reducible in Z. Replace x with (x+1), it’s equivalent to whether (x+1)^2+1=x^2+2x+2 being reducible in Z. This can be applied with Eisenstein

#

Where p=2

little drum
#

the remainder would always be of the form (ax + b)

pale kestrel
#

indeed.

little drum
pale kestrel
#

Because x^2 - 2 is irreducible, the quotient gives you a field.

little drum
#

how to continue to show this is {a√2 + b}

pale kestrel
#

Use this theorem telling you K[a] = K(a)

#

You proved it a while back iirc.

little drum
#

wha

pale kestrel
#

This comes up a lot in Galois so like...... prove it again if you want to

#

But remember it

#

Oh wait this is not the one you proved (but were important)

#

It is proven using the fact K[x] is a euclidean domain though. For the basis part

#

The first part of the proof is similar to the other theorem you proved ig.

#

So you need to convince yourself this is an isomorphism.

Q[x]/(x² - 2) === Q(√2)

little drum
#

A question

#

what exactly is Q[x]/(p(x)) ?

pale kestrel
#

Think of it as Q[x]

#

polynomials in Q

#

modded out by p(x)

little drum
#

no I understood the thinking

#

but

pale kestrel
#

This is how you form the equivalence classes

oak perch
#

The quotient ring of Q[x] respect to the ideal generated by p(x)

pale kestrel
#

(p) <-- this is the ideal generated by p

#

You understand this?

little drum
#

ohh

pale kestrel
#

Also I would recommend this notation
Q[x]/(p)

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

pale kestrel
#

the other day and they recommended the left

little drum
#

Yeah K[x]/(f) I understand

pale kestrel
#

Do you understand this quotient is a field if and only if.................

little drum
#

If (f) is a maximal ideal?

pale kestrel
#

maximal ideal

little drum
#

🤔 or smth like that

pale kestrel
#

f minimal polynomial <-> (f) maximal ideal <-> K[x]/(f) is a field

#

Otherwise the quotient will just be a ring.

little drum
#

da heck

#

what's a quotient

#

(@_@;)

pale kestrel
#

the divide sign

little drum
#

no

#

really?

pale kestrel
#

K[x]/(f) is K[x] quotient (f)

#

,w quotient

pale kestrel
#

Quotient refers to division

#

But no one calls it division in uni+

little drum
#

so like, pick any (2x^2 + 5x + 2) from Q[x] say, and f = x^2 + 1

#

so the quotient would be \frac{2x^2 + 5x + 2}{x^2 + 1} ???

pale kestrel
#

ill call your left thing f

#

it is f mod x^2+1

#

It is a different kind of quotient from normal division

#

x/y <-- x and y numbers
X/Y <-- X and Y algebraic structures

#

========
Z/2Z is a quotient ring (or group if you like)

#

It is all of the integers mod 2

#

You can draw a lot of analogies between quotients of numbers and quotients of abstract structures

little drum
#

So quotient is basically modular division?

pale kestrel
#

yes

#

If you care for an analogy, I thought of an ok-ish one

#

Take $600 = 2^3\cdot3\cdot5^2$.\
If we divide by the maximal power of $5$, which is $5^2$, we can make the new number coprime with $5$.\
$\gcd(5, 2^3\cdot3) = 1$\
If we divide by $5$ only, this doesn't happen.\
Can I say $24=2^3\cdot3$ somehow 'behaves' like a field for a full analogy?\\

We can say something like 'after we take our quotient, we want all of the factors to have inverses mod $5$'.\\

So the 'full analogy', we take $n\in\bZ$. We want to quotient $n$ by a number so that all the factors of the new thing have multiplicative inverses mod $p$. For that to happen, we need $\gcd(\frac nk, d) = 1$. So in this sense $k$ needs to be the 'maximal' power of $p$.

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

oak perch
#

Quotient groups, quotient rings, they are all, first , are quotient sets. You know equivalence relation equivalence class right

#

Like R=Q[x], I=(p) . R/I first is a quotient set R/~ ignoring algebraic structure , where f~g iff f-g belongs to I.

little drum
#

so it is indeed modular division

#

._.

pale kestrel
#

yes you can consider quotient

#

as 'modding out'

little drum
#

now

#

I just need to build up the facts with the modular division definition in mind

#

smh

pale kestrel
#

Q[x]/(x^2 + 1)

#

Compute what the class of x^4 + 2x^2 + x + 3 is (mod x^2 + 1)

little drum
#

x + 2

oak perch
#

Yeah

pale kestrel
#

yep

little drum
#

now

#

if we're considering

#

the ideal generated

#

by an irreducible thingy

pale kestrel
#

god i wrote that sht

little drum
#

hmm

pale kestrel
#

Let $f = x^2+1$\
So $x^4 + 2x^2 + x + 3\equiv x+2 \pmod f$\
Or\
$x^4 + 2x^2 + x + 3 + (f) = x+2 + (f)$

#

Either notation works

little drum
#

bruh

#

big bruh moment ._.

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

pale kestrel
#

Its like 15 === 3 mod 4

15 + 4k = 3 + 4j
15 + (4) = 3 + (4) is alternate notation

little drum
#

so if f has a root \alpha (say), then ofc F/(f) would have a root (\alpha) if f is an irreducible poly.

pale kestrel
#

im confused

#

Justify why.

#

or what you mean

oak perch
#

Any f actually. This case x+(f) is actually a root of f(T) in R/(f)

little drum
#

Let $\mbb{F}$ be a field and let $f(x) \in \mbb{F}[x]$. Let $f$ be irreducible over $\mbb{F}$.
Q) Does $\exists$ an extension K over F such that f has a root in K?

ocean sealBOT
little drum
#

Ans. yes : K = F/(f)

pale kestrel
#

Do you see what the root is, though.

little drum
#

absolutely not

#

lmfao

pale kestrel
#

right

oak perch
#

Yeah x+(f) is one of the roots

pale kestrel
#

noooooo

#

dont spoil

oak perch
#

Oh

pale kestrel
#

🤦

#

Think about what the elements of F/(f) are

little drum
pale kestrel
#

The elements of the quotient are polynomials mod f

#

Now we claim f has a root in K

#

What does this mean though......

#

it doesnt make sense unless we consider the polynomial ring of K

#

K[y]

#

so we are saying f(y) in K[y] has a root in K

little drum
#

no absolutely not

#

bruh

#

(2x^2 + 2x + 1) = 2x - 1 mod (x² + 1) does not have the root I

#

._. t

#

f

pale kestrel
#

listen

#

We want to construct a field

#

So that f has a root in that new field

#

Call this field K

#

This means there exists a in K such that f(y) in K[y] and f(a) = 0 in K

#

Does this make sense?

#

Take the polynomial in R[x] x^2 + 1. We want to construct a field so this has roots.

We are then considering x^2 + 1 as a polynomial in C[x] and saying +-i is its roots

little drum
#

uhh 😂 yeah and also, I'm wondering if all this time F/(f) just meant stuff like polynomials under modular division with f

#

oof

pale kestrel
#

Yes yes

#

So back to the thing

#

we claim f has a root in F/(f)

little drum
#

can not :| f(y) in K[y] does not sink in

pale kestrel
#

Write down K[y] for the example

pale kestrel
#

Does the x^2+1 make sense

little drum
#

what you said originally

pale kestrel
#

We say x^2 + 1 has a root in C

#

For this to happen we must be taking this polynomial as a complex polynomial

#

in C[x]

#

(are you familiar with the evaluation map?)

little drum
#

nothing

#

absolutely nothing 😑

#

oof

pale kestrel
#

When we write down x^2 + 1 we can consider it in Z[x], Q[x], R[x], C[x]

#

or whatever

little drum
#

It takes knowledge to ask a question smh

#

Got it !

pale kestrel
#

But if we say 'x^2 +1 has a root in C'

little drum
#

I give up sadcat

pale kestrel
#

We are saying x^2 + 1 in C[x] equals 0 when you plug in an x from C

little drum
#

what

#

whaaa

#

da hec

#

🤔

#

a + ci

pale kestrel
#

what are u doing pandaHmm

little drum
#

Anyways forget this

#

Show me

#

$\mbb{Q} (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt[3]{3}) = \mbb{Q} (\sqrt{2}, \sqrt[3]{3})$

pale kestrel
#

You should really get this idea of quotient rings down pandaOhNo
You're almost there

ocean sealBOT
little drum
#

minimal poly. for left = degree 6.

pale kestrel
#

thats a guess, isn't it?

little drum
#

nope

#

$$x^6 + 12x^4- 6x^3 + 36x^2 - 36x +9 = 2(3x^2 - 2)^2$$

ocean sealBOT
little drum
#

._.

#

degree 6 nonetheless

pale kestrel
#

not on the right

#

Anyways

#

How do you know this is irreducible

little drum
#

Good Q

#

idk uwucat

pale kestrel
#

In fact if you found rational factors for it

#

it isn't

#

(3x^2-2) <-- if this factorises into it, its not irreducible.

little drum
#

well, since it is indeed a degree 6 poly, it is reducible in quadratic factors

pale kestrel
#

???

#

There are examples of irreducible polynomials for all degrees

little drum
#

🤔

pale kestrel
#

If you claim the minimal polynomial is of degree 6, then it cannot be reduced, of course.

#

The question wants you to find the minimal polynomial last

#

not first

#

First you need to show this

#

I would recommend via inclusion

#

But I can't fully remember how to do this

#

One way is easy, can you see?

little drum
#

mwahahaha

#

yes I do uwucat

#

cuz I'm smort

#

show that √2 and cbrt(3) are elements of Q(alpha) and therefore Q(..., ...) subset of Q(alpha)

#

the other way is trivially true

pale kestrel
#

yep

little drum
#

hence, equal uwucat

#

sadcat the minimal polynomial thingy does whaaat

pale kestrel
#

Have you seen the primitive element theorem?

little drum
#

tf is that -.-

#

Shuri

pale kestrel
#

nevermind that

little drum
#

do you like to play with big words sadcat

pale kestrel
#

I don't get how you just showed this

little drum
#

gib me a sec

#

and some paper

pale kestrel
#

$$\mbb{Q} (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt[3]{3}) \subseteq \mbb{Q} (\sqrt{2}, \sqrt[3]{3})$$

ocean sealBOT

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

This is not.

little drum
#

I showed that tho UwU

pale kestrel
#

where

#

or maybe just how

pale kestrel
#

what?

#

How do you know root 2 is in the right thing

#

$$\sqrt{2}, \sqrt[3]{3}\in\mbb{Q} (\sqrt{2} + \sqrt[3]{3})$$

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

pale kestrel

You actually just need to show this ofc

#

but I don't see how you did it

little drum
#

$$\alpha = \sqrt{2} + \sqrt[3]{3}$$
$$\alpha^2 = 2 + \sqrt[3]{9} + 2\sqrt{2}\sqrt[3]{3}$$
$$\alpha^3 = 2\sqrt{2} + 3 + 6\sqrt[3]{3} + 3\cdot \sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt[3]{9}$$

im dumb, i dont see how

little drum
pale kestrel

oh you mean sub

little drum
#

Yes

pale kestrel
#

i shall try

little drum
#

I literally wrote sub

#

wait not sub lmfao

#

eliminate

#

but yeah same thing devastation

pale kestrel
#

whats the 'or'

little drum
#

👀 an alternative that's more quick

#

$$(\alpha - \sqrt{2})^3 = 3$$

ocean sealBOT
little drum
#

and you only get \sqrt{2} terms only once ._.

#

altho you'll need an inverse

pale kestrel
#

yes this is the usual way iirc.

little drum
#

anyways

#

you end up shoing √2 and cbrt(3) in that thingy

#

and hence, they equol

pale kestrel
#

yep

#

can i check my work with yours

#

$$\sqrt2 = \frac{\alpha^3+6\alpha-3}{3\alpha^2+2}$$

ocean sealBOT
#

𝐒𝐡𝐮𝐫𝐢𝟐𝟎𝟔𝟎

pale kestrel
#

cbrt3 = alpha - that

#

did we get different answer

little drum
#

but

pale kestrel
#

pandaOhNo first time i done this exercise

little drum
#

don't we need to show that 1/(3alpha^2 + 2) \in Q(\alpha) 🤔

pale kestrel
#

I am doing the first question right

little drum
#

Yes

pale kestrel
#

Why would I need to show that

little drum
pale kestrel
#

but this is a field

little drum

oop

#

hmpf

pale kestrel

wait how the heck did you do it then

little drum
pale kestrel

or did you just write those equations and write 'qed'

#

😠

little drum
pale kestrel
#

well whatever.

#

next

little drum
#

no

#

lmao

pale kestrel
#

huh?

little drum
#

uwucat every such questions I've seen solved so far,

#

had √2 or some surd like that expressed as a polynomial in alpha

pale kestrel
#

then wtf did i do wrong

#

I did elimination as you said

#

Either im crap at algebra

#

or

little drum
#

:| I thought it being expressible as a polynomial must be a necessary condition for

pale kestrel
#

😠

#

moving onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

little drum
#

oof shuri

pale kestrel
#

5i)

little drum
#

okay

#

1/(3alpha^2 + 2) exists in Q(alpha)

#

and the other thing exists in Q(alpha)

#

so

#

√2 exists in Q(alpha)

pale kestrel
#

sorry

#

im happy with 5i lul

and I absolutely understood nothing lmfao

pale kestrel

I will write the argument u are using

little drum

I really need more of these questions/solutions

#

oof

pale kestrel
#

You are showing y^3 - 3 is irreducible in Z[sqrt 2] using eisenstein (p = 3).
Then (x - sqrt2)^3 - 3 is also irreducible in Z[sqrt 2] (lemma)
Then (x - sqrt2)^3 - 3 is irreducible in Q(sqrt 2) (Gauss' lemma)

little drum

Also, can you flip through dummit n foote and gib me the topics I must read

to proceed with splitting fields, etc.

#

favor, do sadcat

pale kestrel

you need to understand F/(f)

@tacit arch

tacit arch
#

plug in the equation of f(x) for g(x)

#

do the same for f(g(x)). if you get x back both times, then the answer's yes.

fallen kayak

f(x)-3x+5 and g(x)=5x-3?

tacit arch
#

f(x) = -3x + 5 yes

#

read "Steps To Find An Inverse Function"
https://www.cuemath.com/algebra/inverse-functions/

The inverse function is a function obtained by reversing the given function. The domain and range of the given function are changed as the range and domain of the inverse function. Let us learn more about inverse function and the steps to find the inverse function.

fallen kayak
#

−15x+14

#

@tacit arch

tacit arch
#

looks right. so that means the composition is not x, meaning it's not an inverse

fallen kayak
#

g(f(x)) means just replacing the f(x) with 'x' in g(x)
g(x) = 5x-3 f(x) = -3x+5
g(f(x)) = 5(-3x+5) - 3

its probably rlly easy but im dumb so can somone pls help

merry depot
#

Can you fill in the blanks with the correct porbabilitiies?

raven rover
#

@smoky jungle Start with the tiny tiny steps ^^

smoky jungle
#

i got it wrong so i have a new question now but is this right so far?

merry depot
#

yeah, that's correct so far

smoky jungle
#

okay good

#

how do i do this bit?

merry depot
#

you'll add the probabilities where he ends up doing his homework in the two cases of going to the park, and not going to the park

#

So if he goes to the park and does his homework you'd multiply those probabilities together.
Same for not going to the park and doing his homework.

smoky jungle
#

so 7/10x1/2?

merry depot
#

yep, that's one probability you'll need

smoky jungle
#

and 3/10x3/4

merry depot
#

yep.

#

Then add those two probabilities together

The graph shows f(x). The dashed line is a vertical asymptote.

#

What is the correct statement?

storm pebble
#

it says fx

#

Clearly the graph goes infinitely downwards near 1

the question is asking what the limit is approaching 1 from the positve side

See, tis homework. But I'm having trouble using the limit definition

raven rover
#

Have you ended up starting?

#

With the limit definition, the first steps are:

  1. Finding f(x + h)

  2. Finding f(x) (most of the time you're given f(x))

modest yew
#

Yes I have, but I don't know how it applies to this question. I think I have to use it but I don't see how

#

Ah, this is for question 2 I see

#

So then I would do the limit def for both of those right?

#

Nvm I see what you're saying

#

Ok thank you!

When are the values of f(x) larger than g(x)

I think around -120 to 0?

yep

Do i

knotty spire

will I get the mark from just writing that down or do I have to do more

anyone know this?

lone heartBOT

you need to find the function

#

you can map it to decide if it's linear or exponential

Show that if f is a continuous function on the real line such that for all x and y, $$f(\frac{(x+y)}{2})=\frac{f(x)+f(y)}{2}$$ then f(x)=ax+b for some real a and b. Then, show that this holds for any borel function f, but not for a non-measurable f?

seems like the cauchy functional eq? unless the tex is scuffed

junior condor
#

sure I get the first part, but how do I show that it holds for any borel function f

#

but not for a non-measurable f

#

A second question is:
Show that for every distribution function F there exists a probability measure $\mu$ on $(\mathbb{R},\mathcal{B})$ such that F(x)=$\mu {(-\infty, x}$

I was trying out this problem and I got average revenue per passenger as 15.7 $ and SD as 19.95 $ which is correct. In the second part, revenue expected of 120 passengers, I did 15.7 * 120 = 1884 which is also correct.

In the case of SD in b part, should I multiply 120 with the Standard deviation (19.95)?

In a) part I am finding SD per person right? so in b) part, for 120 people, It must be multiplied right?

viscid wren
#

can someone help me factor this lol?

lone heartBOT
viscid wren
#

the denominator i mean'

buoyant kayak
#

let u = x^2

viscid wren
#

i have never been taught to factor using a substituion

#

substitution

buoyant kayak
#

cool

torn forge
#

uh

torn forge
#

done this before?

viscid wren
#

completing the square right?>

torn forge
#

ye

viscid wren
#

its been literally forever

buoyant kayak
#

what

buoyant kayak
torn forge
#

After that use the difference of two squares

torn forge
viscid wren
#

this doesnt really help lol

torn forge
#

a

buoyant kayak
#

turn it into a quadratic

placid zinc
#

Basically, you just want to factor
u² - 40u + 144

viscid wren
#

ye looks like im just gonna learn how to do this

#

ill go watch a vid on it.

buoyant kayak
#

uhh

placid zinc
#

I wouldn't say there's anything to learn, haha

buoyant kayak
#

on factoring?

#

you're doing integration rn bleak

placid zinc
#

Unless you have forgotten how to factor, which a lot of people do, haha

torn forge
viscid wren
#

i mean using the usub to help factor lmao

#

never done that

buoyant kayak
#

you've done substitution before

#

if you've taken an algebra class

#

it's just like that

placid zinc
#

So it's an algebraic substitution, not a u-sub. We're just looking at the denominator in a new way:
u² - 40u + 144

#

If you can factor that, you can factor the original

viscid wren
#

Lol I don’t remember and if it was algebra two that was like 7 years ago

#

Looks easy enough tho so I’ll just go do that now

buoyant kayak
#

i assume you've covered u subs in calc tho?

viscid wren
#

Yeah of course

buoyant kayak
#

it's just like that except no du

viscid wren
#

Applying it to algebra shouldn’t be hard at all

buoyant kayak
#

it's u sub but easier lol

viscid wren
#

It’s just new or something I don’t remember so I’ll have to do it a few times to get it

#

But yeah I see

buoyant kayak
#

👍
