How do I even approach it?
I have dealt with finding h(x) where x = a
but not sure why i have a function
as my x
use chain rule
^^
You have a composition of functions
You’re looking for the derivative of a composed function
h'(x) or h(5x^4)
dy/dx of h'(x) is 1/xln(2) but wouldn't that make it the 2nd derivative?
but it's asking for h(5x^4)
you want to find $\dv{x}h(5x^4)$
Mosh
well yeah
it's said to be a function
also no
recall chain rule
there edited
recall power rule
and you know what h'(x) is
there
.
h'(5x^4)*(20x^3)
so our answer will be:
log_2 (5x^4) * (20x^3):?
yes.

A friend gave me the answer for each, but i need the steps to solve each item
Answers:
a) 5π/4, 7π/4
b) 4π/4, 10π/4
10 pi/ 4 is not in 0 to 2pi
this option is not right
What do you mean tho??
theta should be between 0 to 2pi but 10 pi/4 is not in this range
so 10pi/4 is not right
for this question
Ok, so that was wrong. But how are they solved??
your friend know about its values or may be he\she has chart of these values
first is like find $\theta$ if $\sin(\theta) = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{2}}$
Solution
So, -1√2/2...???
Wait, before moving on, the values of theta must be between 0 and 6.3, right??
I tried sin^-1(√2/2) = -45 = (-1π/4)
And then sin(-1π/4) = -0.0137...
I gues this is wrong
So... -45???
-pi/4 is also not in range
Yeah...
but you can make it
By finding its absolute value...??
okk, do you know where sin x is negative ( in which quadrents)
Quads 2 and 3...??
yup
so just p + pi/4 and 2pi - pi/4 ( i am taking pi and 2pi because sin will not change )
5pi/4 and 7pi/4
π + π/4 = 5π/4 like that??
yesss
So, i have to show this first
and then this
yes you can
Why is pi/4 positive in the first solution? Is it bcus
π - (-π/4)????
beause you want 1/sqrt(2) which is possible at pi/4 and you are in 3rd quadrent so pi+pi/4

can someone explain why x-x0 gives the vector in green? I thought subtracting a vector just meant going in the opposite direction, so I thought x-x0 would just get you back to the origin, i draw a depiction of this in red and blue
the only way i could go close to reconciling this is by drawing x+x0 and then flipping the direction like this
but i still dont get the exact vector which is supposedly x-x0 (in green on the original image)

How much would you save in interest (over the life of the loan) on a 15-year mortgage at 2.5% if you reduced the amount you borrowed from $325,000 to $200,000?
Im not to educated on this but would it be like this: (325,000x(1.025)^(15)) - (200,000x(1.025)^(15)) = diffrence

How to show that?
ok @zenith compass so i've never done limits like these before so i may be wrong but i think i got it so here's my soln?
from here its pre obvious to see that c approaches zero as h1 and h2 approach zero
but i may be wrong
ty 😁
i was pre sure i recognized that formula from somewhere so i just fiddled around with right triangles until i got something
Actually the problem is from proving differentiability
Ya this idea is genius

how do i solve a second order diff eq that isn't equal to 0? i have the mark scheme, and i got $e^{-x}(A\cos(2x)+B\sin(2x))$ in my solution, but apparently the answer is $e^{-x}(A\cos(2x)+B\sin(2x))+\textbf{10}$
ALIAS
Solve the related homogeneous differential equation first. Find a particular solution, by any means, and the general solution will the addition of the two.
could you clarify that, please? i'm not exactly sure what you mean, particularly with the "addition of the two" step
A particular solution is the term used for the any solution which satisfies the actual differential equation.
I'm not sure how much stuff you know about differential equations to guide further guidance.
Are you aware of complementary functions and particular solutions?

how would u answer this
my friend
hello
u just have to add it
what so 10/5h?
on mathway the answer is different
how would you simplify something like
$$\frac12 + \frac13$$
ℝamonov
shouldn't be using bots yet to solve your problems
find lowest common denominator
that would be 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6
@gray isle
apply the same idea to your question
so add a h
so 40/5h + 2h/5h
yea
then cant that be 2(20 + h) / 5h
yea
but like
factoring a 2 out isn't really gonna do much
its helpful in most instances to factor stuff out
so it can be 40 + 2h / 5h aswell
yea
ok thankyou so much

Can anyone help me to find the inequality that I circled
I already found the equation but the answer key says x+2y<4
So do I just move my 2 to the left? Then i move my -x to the left?
But where do you get 4? So i also multiply 2 with 2?
Ohhh okay thanks
I also noticed that if i have -x, i always move it to the left, why is that?
Just nicer to deal with positives rather than negatives

Where did the m+n in the denominator go?
The (m+n) went to the other side of the equation and multiplied by zero hence got it’s value as zero.

Don't think so.
Yo the last a3an-2 should be there
I think it should be
a1 an
a2 a n-1
a3 a n-2
a4 a n-5
...
an a1
Yep.
Don't know
The problem looks interesting. Might give it a try after 5 minutes.
Okie
I think you should try partial decomposition and then add up the first and last terms.
1/a1an = x/a1 + y/an like this. When you will have a lot of them like
1/a1 + 1/an + 1/a2 + 1/an-1 + ... + 1/an + 1/a1
Actually then
Nah, decomposition won't be useful if we add lol.
Wait I tried it
You pair those 1/a_k+1/a_n-k on the right hand side
$\frac{1}{a_{1}+a_{n}}(\sum_{1\leq k \leq n}\frac{1}{a_{k}})= \frac{1}{a_{1}+a_{n}}(\sum_{1\leq j \leq \frac{n}{2}}(\frac{1}{a_{j}}+\frac{1}{a_{n-j}})= \sum_{1\leq j \leq \frac{n}{2}}
\frac{1}{a_{j}+a_{n-j}}(\sum_{1\leq j \leq \frac{n}{2}}(\frac{1}{a_{j}}+\frac{1}{a_{n-j})=\ sum_{1\leq j \leq \frac{n}{2}}\frac{1}{a_{j}a_{n-j}}$

how to show isomorphism between these groups ?
Don't think there is one. R is uncountable but Z^2 is, so there can't be a bijection
I think exactly same.
do you think that is enough to show this ?
By contradiction is quite obvious. If there is one, you have a bijection from R to Z^2. But Z^2 is countable so you have a bijection from Z^2 to N. By composing them, you have a bijection from R to N (or a subset of N or an injection, depending on your definition for countability). However R is not countable, so that can't be.
can I ask you what is the difference between (Z,+)x(Z,+) and (ZxZ,+)
?
because, im not able to imagine it
Assuming that + is the usual addition (i.e. no shenanigans), there shouldn't be any
As the addition for a product group is done component wise

Just to be sure about definitions: a maclaurin series is a taylor series centered around 0 rather than any point right ?
Then sometimes Maclaurin is better because the formula is nice, sometimes Taylor is better because because of convergence reasons
Maclaurin series are just not as general as taylor series. They're nice for functions like sin, cos and exp, but sometimes they suck. Like if ask you to approximate sqrt(300), well... I let you compare both methods
Turns out the Maclaurin series isn't even defined because sqrt has no derivative at 0
but the linear approximation at x=289 is really good
You can do a series at any point, and locally (assuming it's well defined) it will work well. The problem is "locally", some functions lead to only a radius of convergence, then a taylor series is much better if you can compute some special values
you can do it at 0 yes
it's very nice at 0 because cos has a nice development at 0
how have you defined a taylor series
that's not a definition
a taylor series is the generalization of the local approximation of a function by its tangent line or parabola
a taylor series always has a center. Look at the definition you have. The center is the point where you can guarantee the approximation to be exact
the area around the center is the area around which the approximation is going to be the best
Here the order 2 approximation of cos and order 1 approximation of ln produces a really good parabola
That's not math, that's physics. That's basically saying "I know how it is at that point, but I don't know how it behaves, so I'm just going to assume nothing else happens"
that is correct, but the interpretation is based on physics liking t=0
the mathematical reason is you have no reason to prefer 0, it depends on the situation
t=2.52 and you approximate centered at 0 ? Look at the function dude
just approximate at the next root
there's no wrong and right. When comparing approximations, there's only better and worse
In practice when you want to approximate using Taylor polynomials, we choose the center such that:
- It's a convenient point where we already know the value and the formula is nice (otherwise it is not simpler to approximate)
- It's close enough to the value we want to approximate, so that we still get a good approximation
Hence the example of x=289 to approximate sqrt(300)
approximations is a game of intuition
Do you think the information you have at 0 is appliable to what happens at t=2.52 ?
intuition
The function literally goes to -inf and comes back before reaching t=2.52. What information do you expect to carry over that trip ?
how good an approximation does that look ?
Doing approximations is like doing physics: it requires intuition
it requires an understanding of the function
ok can you easily compute an order 2 approximation for the function centered at 2.5 ? Obviously not using anything that would be about as hard or harder as just computing f(2.52)
Wdym "do" ?
center at 2.52 ?
ok what's the first step to center at 2.52 ?
I mean what's the first term you need to compute for your function/approximation ?
do you understand the point of taylor series ?
If you can plug the function into WA you don't need an approximation
solve what ?
That's precisely why you approximate
also in contexts where there is no calculator
yes please do, this is clearly trivial
Clearly a simple solution to your physics problem. Easy to deduce properties of this function looking at that formula
I frankly don't know if this is incompetence, bad faith or a lack of understanding
do you see how Taylor series are useful ?
avoids that hell of a formula
just slap an error term at the end of the approximation, and say "I did the approximations such that it's small enough for our purposes"
you got || normally, where did it go ?
another reason to use an approximation I guess

I just have a quick question
In my textbook Markov matrices all row elements add to 1
And on YouTube a MIT professor is saying all columns add to 1
The book is a probability book and the YouTube lecture is a linear algebra video
I’m not good with linear algebra do I’m not sure if it even matters which way you do things
As for my knowledge there is differences in schools, some teach to work with columns, some with rows. Just stick to your learnings and don't mix up the relative positions of some operations.
I feel like didnt say anything useful, so wait till somebody helps
@wet pulsar Has your question been resolved?
It does not. But you should make it clear what your vectors are. Are your vectors row vectors or column vectors?
If the transition matrix is written $P_{ij}$ from state $i$ to state $j$, where $i$ refers to the row index and $j$ is the column index, then it is clear row elements should sum to 1.
In this case, if columns also sum to $1$ then the matrix satisfies a very special property, but I don't think that is what you are asking about here so it doesn't matter

A booklet wants me to differentiate the following.
I got dy/dt = 36t^2.
The booklet however says that the answer is: 72t^2
What did I do wrong?
is that $y=1\cdot 18t^2+22\cdot 4$ ?
Big xdddd
Yes
formular is : $f(x)=x^n\to f'(x)=nx^{n-1}$
Big xdddd
so if you differentiate that you get 36t
Oh yeah I forgot that one step.
Regardless I think I solved the problem now. Those dots are actually decimal points instead of multiplication symbols apparently

whats the correct way to prove a number is equal to another number sorry for the bad phrasing
is there context for this question?
see #❓how-to-get-help to open your own channel
i need to show that (1/root(10)) = (1/10)(root(10)) without using a calculator
So you want to look at rationalizing the denominator
oops didnt notice it was occupied
here are a couple of examples of rationalization.
The idea is to basically multiply your denominator by a factor that turns it from a radical (or a root) into an integer (or fraction). Then multiply that by top and bottom
so id end up with (1 root(10) / root(100))?

This only shows that the sequence converges right?
But it doesnt converge to 0
please pin me if u answer
What do you mean. You calculated the limit and it's zero
The question asks also to find the value it converges to
I found the limit, which means I know that the sequence is convergent, I still dont know where it converge to
unless it's 0 as well?
isn't that the value it converges to
I wasn't sure if that were the case, so Im just asking that
mb mb
<@&286206848099549185>
?
what exactly did you mean to do when you calculated "limit of a_n as n tends to infinity"?
There is a theorem that said if limit exists at infinity then the sequeunce is convergent, if it doesnt exist, then its divergent
so i calculated the limit of an as n tends to infinity to see if it converge
unless my notes was wrong?
nope.
I hope this enlightens you a bit
when is a sequence called convergent
-> A sequence is "converging" if its terms approach a specific value as we progress through them to infinity.
ohh, i see. So it converge to 0 in this case
Yes it does

Just want to make sure I set everything up correctly before I move on
Yes so inf - inf
Which would leave you with 15x(1) - 15x
Yep
Ok so is my setup and evaluation correct?
And then I think I have to divide the numerator and denominator by the highest power of x in the denominator
Yh aslong you've multiplied correctly it's fine but isn't really necessary for this questions
Oh I mean I'm sure they will teach us a shortcut eventually but they are teaching us this method first
I still have inf- inf in the numerator
225x(e^(2/x) - 1)
No clue tbh

Hello
Someone was kind enough to help me with a problem, but I lost internet connection.
Could someone explain it for me please?
I have 2 static numbers. 5 and 10. I want to increase 5 slowly over the course of a week, or any set length of time, to reach 10.
So as soon as an event happens we start at exactly 5. Then every second we increase a little towards 10.
As we get further in time, it increases the more the number goes up each second.
So then on day 7, or any other set time frame. It reaches its cap and stays at 10

any tips on how to prove $\bar{A} \in \overline{P(A)}$ is false
mahmooz
huh
oh
lol
of course
so you're trying to show that the complement of A is not in the complement of the powerset of A?
ye
well
you can try to show that the power set is closed under complement
after that, it should make sense
what do u mean by closed under complement
so
if you have A, P(A) being the powerset, then for all B in P(A), show that B-bar is in P(A)
B-bar is the complement of B
If you can show this, then by definition of complement, A-bar can't be in P(A)-bar

How fundamental theorem of calculus connects integration and differentiation?
From what I understand it connects area under the curve and anti-derivative.
@crude birch Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
The first fundamental theorem says that $\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^x f(t) : dt = f(x)$. That is the link between the definite integral and the derivative.
PhenomPlasma
In words, the rate of change of the area under the graph is equal to the height of the graph.
The second fundamental theorem says that $\int_a^b f(x) : dx = F(b) - F(a)$, where $F$ is any antiderivative of $f$.
PhenomPlasma
In words, the area under the graph is the difference in the value of the antiderivative at the two endpoints.
Doesn't this mean that differentiation of anti-derviative will lead to original function?
That's not what it says. Differentiation of the antiderivative is always the original function. That's the definition of antiderivative. What it says is that the function $\int_a^x f(t) : dt$ is an antiderivative of $f(x)$.
PhenomPlasma
I see. But what about d/dx part?
It says the derivative of that given integral is equal to f(x). Which by definition means that the given integral is an antiderivative of f(x).
Does f(x) is original function?
Yes.

is it true that if i multiply two or more functions, the graph of the resulting function is the union of the graphs of the initial functions?
It depends how u “multiply”
If u set the RHS to be 0, that is kinda obviously true
I know you are talking about something like (Ax+By+C)(Dx+Ey+F)=0
But we usually don’t say multiply function is the union of the functions
The condition is to set the RHS to be 0
Otherwise the multiplication makes no senses
But if you set one side to be 0 and multiply all the nonzero sides and set them equals to 0
Then as long as the functions are well-defined, the desired graph is literally the “union” of the function
@hoary crest can I answer your question?
it does sometimes
even if rhs isn't zero, there is some rule about multiplying idk

Hello, I would like to calculate the variance of a random variable but an having trouble extrapolating to a larger time scale.
Say I have a normally distributed variable X with Var[X]=a. X is say the change in value of something after a time delta of dt. I want to determine what the variance of a new random variable Y is that is the change in value after a time delta of 2*dt
I thought that this would be as simple as Var[Y] = Var[2X] = sqrt(2)*Var[X] but my model is falling apart. I think it is because I am not manipulating the underlying distributions correctly
I am calculating the variance of a lognormally distributed variable
This is a simulated stock price
doing a walk with geometric brownian motion
You can see that I am calculating the returns of the asset at each timestep and calculating the std. I am correcting for the fact that this volatility is observed at a higher fidelity than once every unit timestep by dividing by sqrt(dt).
I can tell this is incorrect because I am using the volatility to price some options -> the options should make no money to be fair -> but the options are making money. This means I am overestimating the volatility on my adjusted timeframe
The next reasonable adjustment is rather to calculate std(a)/dt but I don't see why I would divide by dt and not sqrt dt given the explanation I have above for my variance.
$$ shortreturn^{1/dt} = longreturn $$
demo
from nor on short return = sr and long return = lr
$$ var[lr] = var[sr^{1/dt}] = var[exp(ln(sr)/dt] $$ from wikipedia

Okay, so given that µ = 23.26 and σ = 4.10, find the probability out of 10 samples, that at least 4 of them have a mass greater than 25kg.
I tried solving this by calculating the probability of them being over 25kg via a Normal Distribution
M~N(23.26, 4.10) then** P(M>25) = 1 - P(M<25) = 0.3352**
So if **0.3352 **is my calculated probability of them being over 25kg
I can now use a Binomial Distribution to calculate the probability of at least 4 of them
**Y~B(10, 0.3352) **where P(Y>=4) = 1-P(Y<=3)
I got **0.5541 **but the answer is 0.4469
Could anyone see where i've gone wrong?
Eh......?
one sec
alr i redid it and I got precisely 0.552962702004
23.26 and 4.1 are just from the mark scheme which differed slightly from mine since i didnt round earlier
Like I said
Okay ive got 0.335640617297 on my calculator now
So that's ^ the probability of getting over 25kg
oh shoot
i've got it now
thanks

the radius of convergence is infinite right?
if the ratio converges to a finite number then I put the part with X between -1 < x < 1 and test endpoints

If the store needs to start seeing a profit after 230 units are sold, how much should they charge for the vacuums?
I've thought of one equation: y = 86x + 9200 where x is the number of vacuums they buy and y is total cost
but idk how to incorporate the profit after 230 units sold
Its not a profit of 230
You want to know how much to sell 230 vacuums for to match the total expenses
yeah typo
hm okay that actually makes sense but
the question asks to set up an augmented matrix
so like whaa..
wouldn't you need 2 equations?

can anyone help me on 7
,rotate
or are you allowed to solve this using the inverse trig functions
probably not right
we can solve it in any way
teacher said as long as work is shown
i have formula for it
but i dont know how to start
can you show the formula
so let's start by using the last formula for tan(2x)
ok
i think
we have the value for cos(theta)
the pythagorean identity, which is sin^2(theta) + cos^2(theta) = 1, gives us a way to find sin(theta)
tan(theta) = sin(theta) / cos(theta)
oh then you can already calculate tan(theta)
that looks correct
ya but idk what to do next
tan(theta) = sin(theta) / cos(theta)
plug the values in there for sin(theta) and cos(theta)
you should get a nice fraction
$\tan\theta = \frac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta} = \frac{3}{5} \cdot \frac{5}{-4}$
why do we multiply it
Navix
I just took the reciprocal of cos theta
yes thats correct
but we have sin(theta) / cos(theta) = (3/5) / (-4/5) = (3/5) * 5/(-4)
oh so we flip to multiply
exactly
fractions inside of fractions usually dont look good
now you can simplify the expression
the 5's cancel
oh so just 3/-4
yep
and i am done?
so the last formula
of your sheet
tan(2x) = ...
$\tan(2\theta) = \frac{2 \tan(\theta)}{1 - \tan^2(\theta)}$
Navix
so the top will be 6/-4?
or -3/2
did i do it wrong
why is it not negative
oh
like (-2)^2 = 4 not -4
oh ok
16/16 - 9/16 = ?
7/16
we multiply again right
14/-48
now simplify the fraction and you're done
7/-24
thank you
on the paper it says i should have got 24/7
what part was wrong
hmm
oh wait i did it wrong
instead of 16/7 i put 7/16
ya that was it
thank u
