i rlly hope i don't lose marks for not putting an answer like this in the convoluted form the ms gave it in
don't have one sadge
im a private resits student
ask one of your mates then
lol yea that works too
with him its hit and miss lol
hes not a teacher
hes an engineer who does maths tutoring
so he cant answer specific questions about mark schemes sometimes or exam content
he can definitely help me understand the work though
anyways back to it
thanks a lot though man

Hello for this question
to find the pivots I need RREF form
so I take A and got 2 rows
but I'm a bit confused on the 2nd part
which asks whether the eqn Ax = b has a soln for each b in R^4
how can i approach this?

i need prove this identity twice in two diffrent ways
i already proved it once
now i need help to prove in another way
i need someone to hop on vc and help me
so i can show him what i already did
<@&286206848099549185> 'please
@half salmon Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> someone anyone?
pleaseee anyone
<@&286206848099549185>
i just need to prove this identity
likr 5 minutes
another way than i already did
<@&286206848099549185>
wouldnt it be helpful if you show your first way
its like 4 pages but i will send
ok this is the first proof
now i need another one
honestly just try to use a different identity at the start or start from the other side
what diffrent identity icant 😭
idk what to use
it doesn't actually matter just write cosa / sina squared or something
ok so i factorised the bottom
what can i do next
@sly bolt
ok i made it easier <@&286206848099549185> what can i do next
Ur basically there
Your looking to get rid of
$(csc(\theta)-1)$ on the bottom. You also don't want cot on top so it makes sense to convert cot into csc using the Pythagorean identity, then factorise and look for cancellation
And you should get the final result
Max..
how can i convert cot into csc
this is the pythagorean identity how will i conver cot into csc
@near hollow ?
divide by sin^2 theta
Divide both sides by sin^2 and you get one of the other 2 identities
You can do the same for the tan - sec identity by dividing by cos^2
like this?
Noooooooo
ohhhhh
Containing cot and csc
ok so on the left side we get this
but what do we get on the right
?
Then move the 1 to the other side and get rid of the cot on top
$csc^2\theta=cot^2 \theta +1$
Max..
Then move the 1 to the other side
how did u get cot^2 +1?
And you get cot^2 on its own
It's literally the LHS
you said divide both sides by sin^2
the left side gives csc^2
how does 1/sin^2 give cot^2 +1
@near hollow
The right hand side gives csc^2 not the LHS
The LHS gives $sin^2/sin^2 + cos^2/sin^2=1+cot^2$
Max..
OK SO LIKE THIS
@near hollow ok then what do i do

So I know what laws to use for all 3 of these, the thing is I know how to solve for certain sides, but not the entire triangle.
Is this a test or quiz
solving for a while triangle is just doing additional work
I have no idea what solving the triangle means
if youre able to correctly apply to theorems/laws to solve for one side, you can apply it again or other relevant laws to find out everything else about the triangle
solving a triangle just means finding all sides and angles
If it means finding all a, b, c, α, β, γ
Ah
Yea, it's just simple process of applying cosine rule sometimes and normally sine rule
Just apply appropriate rules
multiple times until you find all

what next?
Look earlier
Do you know the derivative of log(7)?
isnt it natural log?
Any base
log (7)/log(10)?
I use log for natural log
Result:
1.9459101490553
Now do you know the derivative of log(7)?
0
Start back after simplifying the log(7x) step
Nah
i dont get it
what do u mean by this?
what about log(7x)
Oh shit I read the whole problem wrong
Start aaaallllll over
Write f(x)=7x+5-x^3
Then you have log(f(x))
You can't split log of a sum as a sum of logs
Try it in your calculator
Which part
confusing
You're looking for the derivative of log(f(x))
I'm just calling the stuff inside log a name
i wanna differentiate this
So I don't have to type it out
the last thing i want is someone polluting my brain
okay how is it useful
im trying to differentiate it with this formula

Find all primes p such that $$ 5p+2 $$ is a perfect square
liviu
so far I've got $$ n^2 - 2 = 5p $$
liviu
1 * 1 = 1
2*2 = 4
3 * 3 = 9
4 * 4 = 6
5 * 5 = 5
6 *6 = 6
7 * 7 = 9
8 * 8 = 4
9 *9 = 1
Last digits
May be very helpful
pretty sure there's a more systematic way to solve it
yeah
Well look at the table your perfect square ends with either 7 or 2
There is no perfect square that gives last number 2 and 7
how would I write this in a proof form
proof by contradiction?

when you integrate using substitution , do you consider the variable which you substituted as a constant
No
like sometimes if i replace say dr with dt , i get some terms of r as well
Why'd you treat a variable as a constant? Especially in integrating
what to do with that r
You need to rewrite that r using t
oh
i have a very complex function e^(alpha.x^2) .dx
so cant decide how to replace x completely
🥴
As I remember you can't integrate that
you can
alpha is constant btw
error function
Without defining any new functions
how
Yeah that one
erf
i need to check how to use this erf
btw what are complex numbers doing here smh
actually i have to integrate this
so ilate method
yeah you don't have to worry about allowing complex values of z
- this erf 🤔
oh you have a z^2 lmao
xd
that makes things a lot simpler. why didn't you say so
oh
just let u = -az^3
i thought its harder
the u sub gets rid of all the nasty stuff
because we have that factor everything else cancels nicely

can someone explain to me what happened in the 4th line? they're using singular value decomposition here, how did the 2 V and V' come out of the inverse?
we have $(abc)^{-1} = c^{-1} b^{-1} a^{-1}$ which can be checked by multiplying $abc$ with $ c^{-1} b^{-1} a^{-1}$
Denascite
and then they use $(V')^{-1}=V$ and $V^{-1}=V'$

here how come they wrote a + 2c = 0 and b = 2a+b?
if a +2c = 0 then we get 0/0
i did this
to evaluate the left hand one both a and b cannot be equal to zero, then we just get 0/0
hello?
<@&286206848099549185>
For the limit of (a + 2c)/h to exist, a + 2c must be 0. The limit would equal 0
This would make the entire limit b
Then, the left hand and right hand limits must be equal, so b must equal 2a + b
but wont we get 0/0?
Only when h=0, but it won't equal 0. We're only approaching 0
We have the limit h->0 0/h
0/h = 0 for all h ≠ 0
That means, for any h really really close to 0, the function 0/h = 0
Remember, the function doesn't need to equal the limit at that point, it just needs to get arbitrarily close. In this case, the function equals the limit everywhere except 0, but sometimes the function never actually reaches the limiting value

How do I start
I tried finding x, y, a and b values and substituting in LHS, but it gave me -1/csc θ - cot θ
try putting in the parametric form of x and y
Para what?
parametric
I don't know it
x and y are a function of theta
Yeah
it is theta what links the two
for example
equation of a circle x^2+y^2=1
its parametric form is (1 X cos(theta), 1 X sin(theta))
I will be honest with you, I don't get it
okay
What is parametric forn in the first place
Okay
you introduce a third variable and find the function of x and y in terms of the new variable
okay?
you there?
I'm here
yeah so
for example of a circle
do you know what the equation of a circle is like on a graph?
Not really
okay
But I guess it is a circle with origin as centre and 1 as radius
Ok
$$ \sqrt {x^2 + y^2} $$ i think I'm not sure
ThickduckPlayz
umm idts, actually thats only for distance from the origin
Oh
Then I don't know
Ahh I'm sorry I forgot it
Ok
it would be sqrt((x2)^2+(y2)^2)
now say this point lies on a circle
the definition of a circle is that it is a figure or shape whose distance from a point is always the same and the distance is called the radius
so
a circle from the origin with radius 2 would be
I have a doubt
yea
Which point
This is a function
no
Oh
x2 and y2 are arbitrary
you get it right?
those whose distance from the centre is less than the radius
Yeah I get it
yes
What does this refer to
The above equation?
it means the arbitrary point lies on a circle
of radius 2 for example
so
if it is
x2^2+y^2 = 2^2
basic pythagoras
have you followed?
Yeah
okay
so now
we can replace x2 by variable x and y2 by variable y
and it will represent all points
Ok
Yeah
Yeah?
Yeah
what do you think the point it cuts on the circle would be
hint: you have to use sine and cosine in a right angled triangle
what do you think?
I have no idea what it will be
i am
I think I need to find the base and perpendicular and use the distance formula
What do you think?
Lol forgot
so just use trigonometric ratios
yep
and they basically are the coordinates of you see closely
should it not be (r cos(theta), r sin(theta))
x=r cos(theta)
y=r sin(theta)
now this is finally called the parametric form
Perpendicular/hypotenuse
Oh f
P = sin θ x h
and hence this is the parametric form of a circle
And similarly cos θ = base / hypotenuse
Yeah
but we don't actually need the terms here
it's actually my bad that i used it and you got confused
but anyways
now lets get to the problem
Okay
do you want to send what you have done so far?
I erased it
Into LHS?
Yeah
do it
And the same with y?
Ok
did you?
Thank you
voila
no worries bro we're good

Can someone explain how these inequalities are converted into a equality contraints?
Like if I have x1+x2>0 I can just say x1+x2=0 and how can I even determine such slackvariable to make it be x1+x2+y=0?
It could had make sense if i had two constraints x1+x2=> 0 and x1+x2<=0 then it can be converted into an equality constraint simply saying x1+x2=0.
I hope someone can give an example.
@woven hamlet Has your question been resolved?
@woven hamlet You have x1+x2 > 0. Obviously we would need to subtract something positive from x1+x2 in order to get 0. Hence x1 + x2 - y = 0, where y > 0
But y is arbitary how do we know what y is?
or is y evaluted after x1 and x2 is known so to make it zero
x1+x1-(x1+x2)=0 I dont know if this is a bad example but does this constraint not always turn true?
If I recall correctly, I don't think what y is matters

Can anybody pls solve that?
do you know discrimant?
if the graph never touches x axis
the discrimant is always neg
for those ms
so u can rewrite what values of m satisfy the equation
$6^2-4m^2<0$
so I need to solve it by discriminant?

2 nd one
what have you tried?
@spare plaza Has your question been resolved?
Nothing yet idk how ti Start this
<@&286206848099549185>
had you tried it @spare plaza
No
Can u give me a solution pls
sure..
Factor out e^x out of sqrt
Then substitute $e^x=t$
You will get $e^xdx=dt$
GG・Goof
Can u give a solution pls
It's a little more complex than that I guess
Wait
Not the complete solution, but you can do it from here.
Integral sec³udu =I, the 2√a is not included
Ok lemee try
Uhh
why don't you use e^x as A for a while and then make it similar to the formula
$ sqrt(X^2 + A^2)
Where do you think the formula of √(x²+a²) comes from xD
Indian student vibes coming from you
what??
look at this then
isn't it making things simple
ig you can substitute $a=e^xtan^2(\theta)$
GG・Goof
Dude u remember a formula. You take cannot take it as a fact that everyone knows it
i know how to derive that formula very well..i am just saying when we have formula why don't use it
I'm pretty sure the asker doesn't know this formula
It might work :?
so now you will teach the asker how to derive the formula..or make things simple for them
I'll show them where the formula comes from
I bet that's what your teacher did when he first taught u indefinite integration right?
it dosen't matters...
Or he just wrote this formula down and told you to remember it.

If i have a line can i find out if its convex or concave and increaseing or decresing just from having a points?
eh?
...?
,w what is convex function
...Can you make a diagram of what you mean? This is probably a lot more confusing than it sounds
When you say "line", do you mean "curve"? And "a points" isn't very English, although I can understand the struggle if English is not your native language
concave or convex @alpine sable @ocean seal
Ah, I see
So, what do you mean by "having a points"?
That's not relevant, but kinda funny
A line is made of points.
But I have a numpy serries of values for the y and Im using the index for the x values.
Oh, so you need this for a program... That's interesting, most people need help for school
So, basically, you have a bunch of x-y pairs and you need to use them to figure out whether or not the curve is concave or convex?
yes!
Are we assuming that the curve is always either strictly increasing/decreasing?
Ah... I see, could you perhaps give us a visualization of your data?
Oh wow, can that even be called concave or convex? It looks like it's neither
Unless you have a different definition in mind
This is clearly convex increasing!
Im asking what is the best option to get that category?
The general trend is, but it is going up and down a lot
I remember in math class using a point but using a line whats the usual option.
People use the first and second deriviative or something.
How can a line be convex or concave?
What if the trend looked like this? Would this be considered concave or convex?
They meant a curve
Oh
lines can be cuved.
Again what is convex and concave in a curve either?
This
Am i underqualified for this?
Probably not, it's just a bit confusing
Again, would this be considered concave or convex?
im not sure tbh it looks intentionally dificult
This channel's occupied. Read #❓how-to-get-help
I think from that logic , it's concave in a certain range , and it's convex in a certain range
im looking for a basic tool in math to do it im sure there is
i dont think a cuve can be perfectly both
/ine
line*
Oh, sorry, I am just asking them so that we can agree on the definitions, the question wasn't meant for me
Bish send me a request cuz i can't send u
I cant type
Nah I don't dm
Wow
thanks for fogging up the post where im actually trying to ge actual work done
Oh yeah sorry m8
Okay, chill 👁️👁️
Anyways, if we're not sure what convex/concave means, how could we put it into code?
mathematically how does one categorically say a line/curve is concave or convex?
increasing or decreasing
if a curve is convex , then it's derivative is an increasing function in that region where it's convex. And vice versa for concave
Depends on your needs, to be honest
can the region be the entire line?
/curve
Yes, in theory
It could be
i think thats only for a point
What do you need this for, by the way?
Derivative being a function doesn't go for a point
dy=np.diff(y,1)
dx=np.diff(x,1)
yfirst=dy/dx
#And the corresponding values of x are :
xfirst=0.5*(x[:-1]+x[1:])
#For the second order, do the same process again :
dyfirst=np.diff(yfirst,1)
dxfirst=np.diff(xfirst,1)
ysecond=dyfirst/dxfirst
xsecond=0.5*(xfirst[:-1]+xfirst[1:])
It goes for a function , as in a curve
if i have the points not th equation how can i? I got this code from a post online idk if you all know python
@sick python It's important you tell us what you need to know this for, otherwise there's some edge cases that we can't really figure out
Such as this
can you define the edge cases?
i dont have a definition for anything so i cant give you the answer
He doesn't even have a function, he just has a set of points, and he wants to figure out which is concave and which is convex. Right?@sick python
but like anything there would be caviats etc
Can you convert points to a function?
Depends, not always
An "edge case" is just a case where the general rules don't apply. In my screenshot, for example, the rules for determining whether or not something is concave/convex don't work
It's not really a Math thing
yes but in your example we dont have the typical yardstick or standard so lets first try to figure out that then get to the edge cases
You can try fitting polynomials or logarithms to your points first
Then once you have a function, then you can talk about concave/convex
sounds rational
Well, then you could check if the middle point is below the line between the first point and the last point. Also, can your points be decreasing?
that sounds super basic sorry
something 15 year old use in algebra class
:/
What's wrong with it being basic?
Is it too innacurate for your needs?
(which you have not specified)
tell us more!
i how can you convert points to an equation!?
you use python?
You want us to help you figure out whether or not a curve is concave or convex without defining concave or convex or giving us any more information...
U can approximate it by using different functions and applying graphical transformation and what not. But i need to looks at ur points and then we may talk about how to do that
That's a popular one. Of course whether or not it works for you depends on your data
You have any other ideas you are thinking if? Ill look for this in python btw.
i need to looks at ur points and then we may talk about how to do that
Of course whether or not it works for you depends on your data
Those are both versions of "We need more info". Seriously, what kind of data are you actually working with? And what are you gonna do knowing that the trend is concave/convex? The last question is to know how we should define concave/convex
I'm clearly not the only one who needs more information here
i can share with you another example and give you more points but youll have to plot them!
Sure. Give me a couple more, please

Ah fudge I'm trying to code and Windows is lagging
Imma just switch to Linux once I get the opportunity
ok im here
what are you trying to do plot the values?
Yes, using matplotlib
But Windows decided to do stuff in the background for some reason
You are using windows 11?
No, Windows 10
ok that still terrible but its not as bad!
Once 2025 comes around and they stop updating Windows 10, I'll just hop over to Linux
I'd even use MacOS if I had to
windows has gone to the dogs 100% stupid garbage OS its so slow now windows 11 clearly they are whrehousing user data and doing 'updates' to disguse
Good enough... Is this what the data is supposed to look like for the second one?
I guess not. This is what it's giving me for the first one
I suck at programming
:/ idk
i didnt plot them
With the power of ugly code, I fixed it
Ah, the last one looks convex, but only if you ignore that tail at the beginning
Day 2 of not having any idea how to define "convex"/"concave" in this scenario
what did you do?
Turns out not only was I plotting strings, but some of them were empty strings
So many exclamation points... Back to business, where are you getting this data from?
its a decomposition
im trying to use a method called dbscan
but i want to find the elbow!
automatically! so i have to pass 2 parameters through the funciton
you get me? @alpine sable
Oh, then that's trivial!
There's 2 things you need to know:
- Is the end point above or below the starting point?
- Is the knee above or below their average?
If you though checking whether or not the midpoint was above or below the average was too simple, this one should be 5x more reliable (and cool)
what?? why do you sound releaved?
...It's a genuinely reliable solution?
we still dont have a valid method of gtting if the curve is convex or concave
Oh, shoot... My bad, I though it didn't require you to know in advance whether or not the function was concave or convex :/
Well, at least now I know what you need it for
_>
so you see what you wanted to see
tell me what about the ideas you had
i posted more data
Honestly, the last example makes it all the more difficult. It looks concave and convex at the same time, and both answers from kneed are reasonable
I guess... Maybe one way would be to check the double derivatives at the points you get for concave and convex and take the bigger one
Kind of an ugly solution, but it sounds like it works
Dude Im asking you what will we use to check the curve to say if its concave or convex?
without looking at it with out human eyyes
That's what I answered. Let me explain it more clearly
Suppose you use kneed to check the elbow, assuming first that it is concave, then assuming that it is convex. One of these answers will be useless. To figure out which, check the double derivatives at both elbows, and keep the higher one
dude im passing concave or convex before i run kneed
I know, what I'm saying basically is that you can run kneed on both assumptions and check which answer is closer to reality
It's kind of a sucky solution, I admit
At this point, you should probably ping helpers
I'm trying to figure something out, but very slowly
<@&286206848099549185>
Thats not my intention.
It can tell you whether or not a curve is concave or convex, though. But scratch that, I think that matching it to a polynomial idea could actually work better
So, turns out kneed has an option to "interpolate" by matching the curve to a polynomial, which is a numpy thing
Then you just need to check whether or not the leading coefficient is positive or negative
Oh well... I'm not too sure about this either
If you are tired or giving up jus say that. Its fine.
Yeah, I'll just leave you alone until I find a solution that actually works
The interp_method still didnt negate them asking or requireing curve and interp_method
@tacit arch Do you think using the sign of a leading term in a polynomial is a good way to determine concaveness/convexness?
To be more precise, the method I'm using approximates the data using an nth degree polynomial and then checks if the leading term is positive or negative
Actually, I guess you also need to know whether or not the data is increasing or decreasing, but that's trivial
@sick python Has your question been resolved?
@sick python I take it back, the polynomial method works well. Could I have some more data to try it on?

How would i go about integrating this?
u = sin(t)
so what do you get for du? @zenith sparrow
i tried doing it by parts
but im not sure how to integrate sin^t
oops
sin^2 (t)
cost x dt
cos(t) dt correct
so if you replace sin(t) with u and the cos(t) dt with du
what do you get
u^2 x cost x dt
replace cos(t) dt with du
what does that then give
oh also there’s a times 2 factor but we can just factor that out of the integral
u^2 du so (2u^3)/3 is integral and then replace with u = sint
i see, is this the only possible method to integrate this?
oo yes thats what i got and was confused for a sec haa
thank you a lot
i'll use substitution from now
i was confused since my teacher integrated it with no working in between
since sin and cos are both trig you can (in many cases) use u-sub
x^2 * e^x + e^x ?
don’t use x as a variable and a times symbol in the same expression lol
o true
but yes (x^2 + 1) e^x would be integration by parts
mhm thats the method i got taught for these things
my teacher solved it in a line hah
super genius! or something
lol

Rewrite the root as a power
$\sqrt[q]{x^{p}} = x^{\frac{p}{q}}$
Nonna
is the answer c
yes
u are
It's better to give a little room for discovery over giving the answers
I'm sorry
@night pumice please change your profile
why ):

Could somebody show me how to do 96 so I can do the rest of the problems like it
pythag, double identity
could you explain it step by step for me?
okay so you have sin^2 theta + cos^2 theta = 1
16/25 + cos^2 theta = 1
cos theta = 9/25
then use double angle cos
to find cos(theta/2)
and use that for sin(theta/2) in the double sin angle identity
because sin theta = -4/5
sin^2 theta = 16/25
?
oh right thanks
do you understand the rest of the steps
I'm trying to understand them rn give me a min
how does using the double angle identity for cos help to find cos (theta/2)?
because you could say cos(2theta)=9/25- sin^2theta but I don't see how that helps
not really no
ok.... so in the case of trying to find cos theta/2
cos theta = 2 cos^2 theta/2 - 1 right
3/5 + 1 = 2cos^2 theta/2
4/5 = cos^2 theta/2
makes sense now?
2/sqrt(5) = cos theta/2
I really wanted to avoid spoonfeeding you
I'm trying to understand it rn
Is this $$\frac{3}{5} + 1 = \frac{2 \cos^2(\theta)}{2}$$
Or $$\frac{3}{5} + 1 = 2 \cos^2(\frac{\theta}{2})$$

latter
was too lazy to put proper brackets
Well, as you can tell, lazy made it much more difficult to read
nah, i clearly specified what I meant previously, so there should be no miscommunication.
alright I got it thanks
idk why I had such a hard time with that but I'll try some of the other problems now

Arctan a - arctan b formula
doubel angle?
An inverse of a function is defined only in a domain where the original function is bijective
So sin is not bijective for all x
But in -1, 1 it is
So arcsinx is defined for x belonging to -1 to 1
Yes depends on the argument
-1≤2x/1+x²≤1
Solve for x now it's a simple inequality problem
alright give me some time
Sure
0<=(x+1)^2<=2(x^2 +1)
discrediting the lhs since its true for all real numbers
(x+1)^2 <= 2(x^2 +1)
0 <= (x-1)^2?
which is still true for all real numbers
or am i balding
Okay
So
This is the double angle formula I suppose, but what's your question lol
x can be all real because of arctanx being R in (-π/2 to π/2)
i understand how the domain restriction works for the normal arcsin graph, however shouldnt it change when its not just x but rather 2x/(1+x^2)? sorry im talking about the first eq with sin for clarifcation
this makes sense
Well 2x/(1+x²) is always bounded between -1 and 1
Same case for 1-x²/(1+x²)
no ok uhm I understand the derivation
Yea I understand your question
the thing is I understand why and how the domain is
But when it's converted to that form
x is already all R
From the arctan equation
uhm
mhm
To bound this x
