those are x's now, not u's
Xerral
right, and both of those things are factorable as well
Why (x^2)^3 not (x^3)^2 at the beginning 😂
So difference of squares?
yes
hm that probably would've made things a bit easier huh 
would still have to do subs tho lol
$(x-1)(x+1)(x^4+x^2+1)$
It will be though… those two cubic functions have roots that can be easily spotted by eyes…
Wdym?
that quartic function doesn't factor to (x^2+1)^2
Oh Sorry
Xerral
Then how do i proceed
…
Try
No
Soery gotta go
x^3-1=0 also
Funny, you asked and you leave when it’s not solved
||x^6-1=(x^3+1)(x^3-1), x^3+1 has a root -1 so it’s divided by (x+1), so(x^3+1)=(x+1)(1-x+x^2), similarly (x^3-1)=(x-1)(1+x+x^2) since x^3-1 has a root 1 ||

Hello
Question: Greg wants to open an account that is maturing 10,000 while using the initial investment of 8500 over the course of 5 years. assuming he does not do anything what is the interest rate?
so I did 10,000 = 8500e(r)(5)
first divided 8500
so i get 10,000/8500= e(r)(5)
- after this step im lost im not sure what to do from here
where is e?
EndTimes
Are you given that it is continuously compounding?
EndTimes
I know but what do I do after having divided this
10,000/8500= e(r)(5)
my main problem
Take the logarithm base e
That is how you inverse the exponentiation
Are you familiar with that?
Yep
ok
after I did ln I got 0.1625189295
so I divide by 5
then I received 0.0325035
So when I plug this in, by doing 8500e^(0.0325035)(5)
I should get 10,000
i get an answer that isnt 10,000
@tight locust
,calc 8500e^(0.0325035*5)
Result:
9999.9857050325
oh
Yeah thats just because the decimal representation isn't exact

can someone help me with the 2nd last question please
you have 2u • du/dx = 2x
then u du = x dx
nvm, i forgot that part,
substitute x dx for u du
and root of u^2 in the denominator
you should get either du or 1 du
i think
sorry but do you have any video recommendation of questions like this?
@solemn grove
du isnt the answer
what would g(t) be?
x/sqrt(u^2)?
sorry g(u)
that’s the working
how did you get g(u) for the last question?
@solemn grove sorry for being a pain
last one?, same substitution stuff?
did they accept du/ 1 du tho?
if not, email your lecturer/professor/ whoever is taking your lesson
yeah
yeah du/1du didnt work
email them
and show your working
i could have made a mistake somewhere, just check for that too
okay all good ty for your help
yeah thats right
du/1 du is the same as du/du right?
Oh my b, by that I mean either $$\int du$$ or $$\int 1 du$$
yeah du isnt the answer
Name_me
Did they tell what the right ans is?
nah they dont
isnt du=2*x?
because even 2*x is not right
@steady echo
Idt du = 2x
We defined u = sqrt(x^2-25), did du/dx which gave us
du/dx = x/sqrt(x^2-25) = x/u
So u du = x dx
We took this into our initial integration, where x dx were together subsituted with u du
The u then simplified with the denominator (which was also u), to leave just 1 inside the integration

Hey fellas, I just started studying fields.
I have this question: 3x^2 - 2x + 1 = 0 over Z(11)
I encountered the square root of 3 in one of my solutions, and I don't know how to translate it into a valid field value.
The question
What does the square root of a natural number equate to in a finite field?
@brittle sun Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
the root of a number is a number such that when squared it gives that number
aka. the solution to x^2 = 3, which if my math is right are the numbers 5 and 6
Ah I see. So in the context of Z11, the square root of 3 is pretty much this:
_^2 = 3
_ = ... 5 and 6, you're right.
Wait. so I need to split this equation into 2 equations, and check what happens for both the values of 5 and 6?
6 is actually just -5
and the quadratic formula is already split into two cases where you've got either a plus or a minus in front of the root
Right, so what I found was something amongs the lines of:
(-9 +- 5) / 6
and
(-9 +- 6) / 6
So, 4 cases in total?
and if you take into account 6 = -5
(-9 +- 5) / 6 and (-9 +- -5) / 6 are your 4 cases
which you can see are actually just two cases
since the first expression is the same as the second
Oh, so I can use either 5 or 6 and the solution should be identical? It's up to me? That's a little weird.
Oh no, you meant -5 = 6 and -6 = 5
Sorry, I misunderstood you
All clear. Thank you very much

alright im stumped could someone help me please
do I multiply by g on both sides first?
nevermind i got it wrong
this one
no clue either
how do I know where to start here?
are all other letters constants?
the problem doesn't specify but we can assume that I think
it just wants me to single out h
so just rearrange the equation such that h is on one side and everything else is on the other
here I'd multiply by 3+h both sides, then divide by F both sides, and subtract 3 from both sides
thats what the explanation told me
i just dont see it
it's the first time I see a problem with 4 variables so it's kind of weird but i get the idea
in reality you'd have to be careful for 0s in each of those multiplication and division steps, but here they just want the final equation so you can ignore all of that
it's not 4 variables, it's 1 variable and 3 constants
right
treat all other letters as if you know what they are
and you are just trying to find h
so on that second one I multiply by (h-f) on both sides first
correct
or can i just multiply the whole denominator at once
yep
if you have trouble imagining the problem try replacing all other letters with numbers
good job
i've gotta do one more but it seems tricky
hold on
i'll try doing it myself
I got d= (b+4-ac)/a
yep
Yes but usually you can just leave it in one fraction
jesus christ that was stressful
thanks yall!
that saved a lot of headaches

can anyone help me with differential queatin
abbout logistic growth
the place has an ability to host 10 000 animals
B = 10 000
The constant is
k = 0.0001
you can set a differential equtation equal to N' = k * N * (B-N)
but do you know what to do if 1000 animals are shot each year
just put -1000?
and N(0) = 2000
you cant do that
you need to find the new limit to the differntial equation
if x new animals are born each year, but 1000 is shot each year
fewer animals will get born
yes but the shots are constant so your new n+1 = n*k*(b-n) - 1000
yes i do, i folow civil engineering
i am 99% sure its wrong
but you could always try it yourself in geogebra
so the new limit will then be 9000
instead of B = 10 000
can you ask someone else
i am pretty sure thats wrong
no, the limit is not that, its a next cycle, in order to find the limit you must solve the eqation firsst
ohh
ye
dude
ur fcking amazing
i am having a math test currently
will be getting 100% because of that!!

I need to know if this is correctly proven
I already sent this recently, but had no response in the matter
@harsh ocean Has your question been resolved?
I think the problem is step 2
while that limit is indeed 0, the infinite product also contains infinitely many of the other terms that each approach 2, which multiply together to give something approaching infinity
so the mistake in step 2 is that it's assuming infinity*0 = 0
instead you'd have to solve a limit of the whole expression as n goes to infinity, and since at every step the expression is just x^a-b, the limit will also be x^a-b
@harsh ocean is everything clear now

Hello, I have a latex band that I need to find the approximate weight and size of once rolled. This is not for any school assignment.
The band is 4 inches wide, 9 feet long, and 0.5 mm thick.
I calculated a volume of ~8.5 inches. However how can I find the approximate size of it rolled up? We would have to guess the diameter of the inner role, I assume its very small due to the thickness and material.
i would assume that there is no inner role (or it has diameter 0)
Correct, let's assume it has an inner diameter of 0.
So the width is easy, that won't change. 4 inches.
However how can I find the height and width
If you roll it into an approximate cylinder, the height of the cylinder is the width of the band
Why would that be the case?
The width is going to be a static 4 inches.
The height is going to change due to the length and thickness
Maybe I'm not visualizing the problem correctly then
I'm not entirely sure what this latex band looks like or what rolling it entails
Similar to a rubber workout band. 4 inches wide. 0.5 mm thick. 9 feet long.
How can I calculate how tall it will be once rolled
And if you roll it like this, the height wouldn't be its width?
Ok, so in that orientation, the height is a static 4 inches, always will be. The width is going to change based on length and material thickness
Correct
So how do I find out what that width will be.
I have the length the material thickness and can guess the inner diameter
That's the part I'm trying to work out rn but I love this problem
I can find lots of information of how to calculate the the length based on a roll. However I can't find the reverse..
You could approximate by ocnsecutively adding up washers (pi(R^2-r^2))
If you start rolling it such that the first roll has no hole through the top, it makes a cylinder with height 4 and radius 0.5
Then if you roll once more around you get a second washer with an inner radius of the sum of all previous washers (0.5 at this point) and an outer radius of that plus 0.5
So the first two iterations would yield:
pi(4)(0.5)^2
+
pi(4)((1)^2 - (0.5)^2)
As for the limits of that, I'll have to play around more
That would be calculating volume
I'm figuring out an integral right now but sorry if I haven't been as helpful as I could be
Not a problem. I am terrible at math. I am with a humanitarian organization and we are buying a large amount of compression wraps for hospitals in Ukraine. Unfortunately their data sheet is terrible and doesn't include how much volume 10 of these take up in a case. So just trying to figure it out.
I'll keep playing around but this is at least an integration problem and I'm relatively new to integration but I'd love to help however I can
Thank you!

when finding the zero crossings of a function, do you write $x = a \land x = b$ or $x = a \lor x = b$
illuminator3
don't know the english word
then x=a=b
when the function intersects the x axis
x = a and x = b
<->
x = a = b
let's say $x = \pm 1$
illuminator3
would you say $x = 1 \land x = -1$ or $x = 1 \lor x = -1$
illuminator3
??????????

What is the max of $\left(x-x_{0}\right)^{2}\left(x-x_{1}\right)^{2}$
Yeetus
is it $\left(x-x{0}\right)^{2} \times \left(x-x{1}\right)^{2}$?
Charan
yeah... I just copied it... markdown ignored it...
Fair fair
$(x - x_0)^2$ is always positive...
Charan
Yes the minimum is clearly 0
yeah...
But the maximum I have no clue
we should maximize $\text{abs}(x - x_0)$
Charan
let's divide it into cases...
Two cases. Furthest away from either a or b?
if x < 0; x_0 = b
if x > 0; x_0 = a
I think... gotta check..
Is this question well defined? we need to know information about a and b, I guess..
What is the domain of $x$?
Charan
Okay, it's [a,b]... it is well defined..
@desert zephyr Has your question been resolved?
Answer is
2 * (b - a)....
informal argument is... we want to maximise... abs(x - x_0).. to do that....
we want x to be as big as it can be... and we want to subtract as little as possible
b > a
big - small
so it is
b - a
or we want x to be as small as possible, and subtract as high as possible...
a < b
small - big
a - b
abs(a - b) = abs(b - a)
so answer is 2 * (b - a)...
it is an informal argument... I hope you got insight to prove it formally...

I have a pretty basic question a bout Inverse Derivatives and the two rules... This is how my book shows these two different rules
So for the problem f(x) = x^2 . If I use the top rule and put the derivative under 1 and then evaluate at say 4.... I get 1/8
if I evaluate with the bottom rule I get 1/ sqrt(4)*2 and I get 1/4
What gives? haha
Let g=f^-1, so g(f(x))=x. Apply chain rule, take derivative both sides, g’(f(x))f’(x)=1 . This gives you that two results
No… 1/2sqrt(x). You let x=1 it gives you 1/2
f^-1’(1)=1/2
1/4
isn't 1 / derivative = 1 / 2x?
1 / 2sqrt(4) = 1/4 but 1 /2x = 1/8 - I'm not sure what I'm missing

I am stuck proving the set of Natural number N is well-ordered using induction. If A is non-empty subset of N, then A has a least element. I tried using contradiction by assume A has no least element. I considered the set S of all natural number m such that m <= n for all n in A.
Trying to use induction, 1 is clearly in S, I assumed m is in S for any m >= 1.
Now if m + 1 is not in S then n < m + 1 for some n in A.
This is where I am stuck on, I am not sure how to move on from here.
I have n-1 is in S, maybe I could use that?
hmm, if m + 1 is not in S then n < m + 1 for some n in A or equivalent n - 1 < m. By assuming m was in S we have m <= n which implies m - 1 < = n - 1. So combining that we have m - 1 <= n-1 < m.
Wouldn't that imply m - 1 = n - 1?
<@&286206848099549185>
any suggestions?
try to think of the set of all subsets of N
and prove that every single one of them either has a least element or is empty using induction
(I'm suggesting a different line of thought but it leads to a really clean proof)
thanks for helping. isn't that what I am doing already? Trying to show every non-empty subset of N has a least element using induction.
I guess I need to give a bigger hint
it's good, I think about it more.
the hint: ||the thing I have in mind for the induction is to prove that, for any n, all subsets that contain at least one number between 0 and n have a least element.||

hello
anyone good at maths?
i need help with something
im learning how to find an area the circumferance of a circle..
i know a little bit of how to do it
just wondering how its useful?
help channels aren't really meant for telling you whether or not math is useful. that belongs in one of the #discussion channels or #math-discussion
With what?
Use the formula
You want to bake a cake / make a pizza with a certain amount of dough
Such a formula would tell you the radius of the cake
and what size of baking mould you want
for the amount of dough you have
(or you could reverse this and figure out how much dough to make for the specific mould you have)
To give one application of such a formula.
i got an example of what i know
accidently done cm instead of m
@late lake Has your question been resolved?
i do have another question
how do you know the uhm
the number
in the circle
like
how u know theres 8.25cm
how do u know theres 4m in this circle? or other shapes?
do u know how much cm or m is in this cup how do u measure it and then find out the circumferance or radius?
Ruler
Or any other length measuring device
You pick a chord (line segment in a circle) and if it passes through the center, you measured the diameter
oh thanks

the population is positively skewed but the sampling distribution will be normal, why ? because of the Limit Theorim, but Why ?
mean, median, standard deviation, and the range, they all will be normally distributed because of the central Limit Theorim, but I cannot understand why and how this is True
the variance will be positively skewed
<@&286206848099549185>
@alpine sable Has your question been resolved?
context?
this should always be True
even in uniform distribution when we get the means it will be normal
should I just memorize this ?
because I cannot understand why this True
is their a logic behind it ?
so its not a class just an online free course
there definately is a reason, if i remember well you can show it with the poisson model
should I search about poisson model ? Idk what is this
id probably just remember it for now

$\pi \int_{-1}^{1} [(2)^2 - (x^2 + 1)^2] dx$
lexitorius
$\int 3 \dd x \neq 3$
Brontochad (Shuri for honorable)
That should have been written 3x
But I followed that in the next step when I wrote 45x/15
then what is this step?
you have some quantity - itself
how did you not get 0?
,w integral from -1 to 1 of (4 - (x^2+1)^2)dx
Well then everything would go to 0 and that would be wrong

I just did this in a quiz and I have no clue how to tackle it. I just know how to name it, but I dont get to figure it out how to prove it, counterprove it, or even find out if its T/F.
This is what I stated, but I just shot a triple:
A) False
The sumation of a specific rational number by every irrational number plus any irrational number by a specific rational number isnt a rational number.
B) True
The difference of every rational number by an irrational number by a specific irrational number minus a specific irrational number by a any irrational number is a rational number
For some reason I also dont fully "understand" how to prove rational and irrational things...
Yes, I see it, but no, I dont get it. I feel dumb as hell
This is some work done by the professor back in the day, but it doesnt really help me out
probably mainly because of me not grasping this^
Could we go over one of the followings given/done by the professor so I can fully understand "the simple part" and then jump to the ones I just did?
(Not fully sure if I should ask in #discrete-math or in here)

halo
okay so I want to factor 24x(squared) + 18x - 15
I multiplied 24*-15
which equaled -360
and then my friend and I figured out -12 and 30 would multiply to -360 and add to 30
so we then went
24x(squared)-12 + 30x - 15
and so far we got
2(x-6)
but if we devide -15
we get -7.5
did we do something wrong?
here's a visual
im no expert but im pretty sure u cant do it just like that
use quadratic formula maybe

hello
We will prove the contraposotive. Suppose $x$\notin$B. $\forall$x((x$\in$A$\land$x$\notin$B)$\rightarrow$(x$\in$C$\land$x$\in$D)), so x$\in$D as required. Thus if x$\notin$B then x$\in$D. Therefore if x$\notin$D then x$\in$B

$y=\frac{4x}{(x^2+1)^2}+1$
sills
how do i find the range of this function
You start with x
Which ranges from -infinity to +infinity
And then you slowly build your function from that
Adjusting the inequality
thats a lot of numbers
Yes..anyway did you get what I said or should I explain how to actually adjust the inequality
?
im a bit confused on an inequality?
Btw would you like to get into a VC or smth?would be easier to explain?if not ,that's ok
sure
Ok
?
ur muted i think
@proven heart
d) Find the range of the solution found in part c).
,w find the general solution for dy/dx = x(y-1)^2
@proven heart yeah i have the wrong function
Ohh
so for question A would i set F(x) and g(x) = x = -2 for both functions and sub them in the Quadratic? my awnser came out to be f(x) = 20 and g(x) to be 5, so for b i would just sub these 2 and make d(x) = 15?
?
^^
Some integral theorem I misremembered
lol
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Looks good to me
^^
Yeahh
I was like how is the integral just the negative version of the integrand?lol
Okay...I guess I was actually kinda wrong when finding the range..
$y= \frac{-1}{\frac{x^2}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}+1$
sills
So get me the function actually as x as the subject?
so i solve for x
Yeah
$y=\frac{x^2-1}{x^2+1}$
sills
Yeah...now solve it for x
BUT I JUST PUT ALL THAT EFFORT INTO SOLVING FOR Y
but?😅
Don't ping random people
sills
@proven heart
Well.. great
So...just let me think for a bit..btw .I'm just tryna help 😭
I don't know if I actually can
$x = \pm \sqrt{\frac{-y-1}{y-1}}$
sills
so
Yes...
the sqrt can not be negative
You think what values of x are not allowed
or undefined
There you go
so y = 1 is not included
wdym
Yes..
now when is the sqrt negative
No like do you notice that on the top...y has to be lesser than negative one
Or equal to negative one
true
so
im seeing that -2 and -3 make it negative
so i assume any value below -1 make it not an output
No like ....y has to lesser than or equal to negative one.
oh
That's for thetop restriction
so y >= -1
Bottom restriction is y has to be greater than or equal to postive one
No I meant lesser than?😅
So the range is ...(negative infinity to negative one] union [positive one to postive infinity)
Ok
ok byee
I hope I helped
you did
I was trying 😅
thank you so much for your help
its ok
theres times where i really wanna help people with stuff but i forget completely

Did i factor this correctly?
@outer hearth Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Is it not already factored? (x+1)^2 is as factored as something can be. Or are you trying to turn it into a polynomial?
yeah but we can pull out a common factor of 1/2
out of both
Is the top equation the original?
There’s no more common factor after. You can’t pull out 1/2 from (x+1) because there’s no more variable attached to the 1
Well yea nvm you can do that
But the second half of the equation is wrong
What would benefit you the most is turning (x+1)^-1 into 1/(x+1)
Then multiplying both 1/(x+1) by their respective fractions.
(1/2)(1/(x+1)) + (3/2)(1/(x+1)) = 2/(x+1)
@outer hearth
looking
how did you get the 1/2 to multiply by both
How did you factor 1/2?
You know it's okay i'll just ask my teacher tomorrow. Thanks for trying to help
You can’t factor 1/2 from (x+1)^2
@outer hearth try using Desmos as you factor out an equation. Whether it’s factored or a polynomial they have to make the same graph. If not you messed up somewhere

i have (x-6)(x-6) = 0. but to solve for x, i'll need to assume that x =! 6 because then i'll have 0/0, but at the end i'll still get x = 6 which is pretty obvious. so is my steps correct then?
i know by the zero product property that x-6 has to equal 0. but now i'm stuck because i can't solve for x without getting 0/0
or does that mean i can't solve for x like this?
You don't need to put (x-6) in denominator, it's simply states x= 6 is a factor of above quadratic equation
And both roots are same
,w calc (x-6)^2
It touches x axis at a single point x=6

so does that mean i can't solve for x by putting x-6 in the denominator?
and then adding 6 to both sides
Nope we don't do it like that
i guess that's what's confusing me a bit. since if i have 0/0 before, then the equation would be undefined and i wouldn't be able to solve for x or anything but here i can still solve for x even though i have 0/0
Yeah

Im trying to convert this into a telescopic series, I tried using partial fraction decomposition but then there's no solution for n^2+n+1=0 so I'm kinda stuck, are there any other way or am I just thinking too much
I assume you don't know complex numbers?
well i do know a bit but not how to use them. U mean like imaginary number u get from quadratic equation?
Ceveat: These are complex (besides the first)
Even with this is it is difficult though.
The culprit is that 1/(n-1) is not a convergence sum and has no pretty partial sum formula.
so then I have these, well I'm supposed to plug in n ? according to organic chemistry tutor tho lol
Wait a second, how do we even proceed after that?
Okay this is a very bad sign lol.
I mean here is a fun fact,
seeing 'euler-mascheroni constant' is how you know it's screwed
sum 1/n² is going to be pi²/6.
TL;DR if you want to find the exact value of this then you are screwed
So these polynomial fraction sums can be pretty terrifying.
sum 1/n^3 is a constant with no elementary expression, afaik
It is possible Wolfy is missing a better representation.
also
if you want to do partial fractions
it's A/(n-1) + (Bn+C)/(n^2+n+1)
and also plugging in values of n is not the only way to find the coefficients in a pfd
anyone who teaches you that and that alone and says that's the only way is a liar and a cheat
I see

1/x
🙂
ty
wait then for the x/3x i get 1/3 again and i go back to the original problem
yes
use a/b + c/b = (a+c)/b
that is why you made the denominator equal in the first place.
i confused now
I typoed
ok i got it right but is this a formula
nvm
it’s not

yep thats what i dunno how to get to
yes
it's literally just that
huh
oh wait ur right im braindead
wtf is a logarithmic sprial
how do i know it is that
what does it do
it spirals, logarithmically 
no that's just the defn of a spiral
its log cus it e
a logarithmic spiral has the property that there is a scaling which maps it to itself
cos(x) = 1/2 (exp(ix) + exp(-ix))
since 
wait i think i did it
horrendous working
but i turned into cis form
and just used cos(-n) = cos(n) and sin(n) = - sin(-n)?
yes
tytytytytytytyytyt
now i try b
wait there is no common ratiop
😦
iis there?
am i braindead
is common ratio cos(n * theta)
$$\sum_{n=0}^N x^n = \frac{1 - x^{N+1}}{1 - x}$$
M8732
so the common ratio is e^itheta
It looks like you applied this incorrectly.

Rohan went to market to purchase some fruits. Fruit seller said that the cost of 2 Kg apple = Cost of 5kg oranges. If you purchase 1kg each then the cost of apple will be 2.5 times the cost of orange
Ques - Cost of 3kg apples
Ques - Cost of 9kg oranges
Ques - Total cost of both the 2 fruit,1 kg each
Ques - Cost of orange is how much less than apple
let price of apple /kg = a, orange = o
2a = 5o
if a+o are purchased together
a = 2.5 o
5o = 2a
changes nothing
@lilac orchid does that sound right ?
