what's the "inverse" of integration
illuminator3
why did you pull that formula out your ass
that's if you want to integrate a polynomial
I saw it in the book
you have $\int f(x)dx$, how do you get $f(x)$
illuminator3
f'(x) + C?
illuminator3
Change y and x
no, you just apply $f$ to it
illuminator3
$f(f^{-1}(x)) = x$
illuminator3
I see
do you understand that
Yes
in our case f is differentiation
and f^{-1} is integration
if we have $\int f(x)dx$
illuminator3
how do we get $f(x)$
illuminator3
d/dx ∫f(x)dx ?
yes
Oooo
differentiation is the "inverse" of the integration
Okie
in your question you have $g(x) = \int \limits_1^x f(t)dt = F(x) - F(1)$ where $f(t) = \sqrt{2t+7}$
you want to find $g'(x)$ so you can just differentiate $F(1) - F(x)$
illuminator3
You messed up the order of F(1) and F(x)
fuck this is the third time this has happened this week
illuminator3
remember that $F(x) = \int f(x)dx$
illuminator3
you don't need to differentiate f(t)
So I just substitute?
g(x)=F(x)-F(1). How do you find g'(x)
$\int \sqrt{2\left(9\right)+7}-\int \sqrt{2\left(1\right)+7}$
AirToastie
What do you want to sub
don't substitute yet
Okay
just find $g'(x)$ for now
illuminator3
@native cloud
F'(x) - 0
F(1) is a constant
yes
and what's F'(x)?
the prime signals differentation
and the uppercase letter integration
$F'(x) = \frac{d}{dx} \int f(x)dx$
illuminator3
But how do I calculate that?
.
re-read our past convo
about how to inverse integration
d/dx ∫(d/dx ∫f(x)dx) dx ?
no
what happens if we differentiate something we've just integrated
remember that differentiation is the inverse of integration
f(x)?
illuminator3
do you understand that ?
Yes
illuminator3
G(x)
illuminator3
illuminator3
f(x)
illuminator3
0?
why
It's a constant..?
Are you just guessing stuff?
g'(x)=f(x). Then what is g'(9)
yes
Woah this is confusing
what part
I don't know what I just calculated
you calculated g'(9)
given f(x) = 2x, how do you calculate f(2)
Substitute 2 in x
Yes
Oh so this problem is teaching me how to calculate
given g'(x) = sqrt(2*x+7), how do you calculate g'(2)
1/2(2(2) + 7)^-1/2 * (2)
This exercise is teaching you that differentiation is the inverse of integration
Oh
Is this right btw?
And that you can compute the derivative of an integral without having to calculate the integral and the differentiate it
No
Why are you differentiating that
It's a prime?
g'(x) is already given. You just need to substitute
Yes

Think about what's happened to the graph
How has the x axis been affected
Has the y axis been affected at all
hmmm
And remember whatever you do in the brackets is opposite
no the y axis has not been affected
I.e a stretch is a fraction
Firstly 1/2 would stretch the curve by a scale factor of 2
So yes
That looks right
there is no f(1/2x)
there is only f(-1/2x)
erm
In the y axis
afaik there's not much of a discernment of a reflection
it looks identical in terms of shape
Reflection in the y axis not x
but uhh
it's not in the positive axis?
its literally no different
in terms of y axis to me
Ok forget the 1/2 for a second
Imagine you have the curve f(X)
And f(-x)
For X= 2 f(X) gives f(2) but for F(-x) we get f(-2)
So it is a reflection in the y axis
Let's say f(X) = x
Or the line y= x
f(-x) = y=-x
A reflection in the y axis
i still don't understand i really apologize
maybe you can tell me the difference between -1/2f(x) and f(-1/2x)
that's also something i'm a bit stumped on
So
If it's outside the bracket
It's a stretch in the y axis
If it's inside
It's a stretch in the x axis
Nw
if i divided 30 / 0.75, it becomes 40
if i multiply 30 * 3/4, it becomes 22.5
which one?
the first one right?
because we need to divide, opposite operation of what is provided for that numbe

So I have my mathematics exams coming up in some days and I have no clue of what to do , and like the syllabus is 4 chapters
So I’m starting off with the chapter expansions
And then I realised I do not remember learning anything from the past grades
I am currently in 9th grade
So like I asked my friend about it and all and he sent me this
And the problem is
I absolutely do not get what any of these mean unless someone explains me
So I went to trustworthy google and YouTube
And I might be so dumb that I couldn’t find the videos even if I was continuously searched for one hour
So my question was , are there any good videos of people explaining the formulas so I’ll remember them?
Sorry if I made any typos or you can’t understand some parts of my question , English isn’t my first language
these look like memorization tables for common expansions of binomials. Have you learned the FOIL method?
I have not learned the foil method
ok, it looks like there are some trinomials in here as well, so you may be better off learning the table method, but the basic principle is that when multiplying two polynomials, you need to multiply each part of the first one by each part of the second one. If you can understand this principle, you'll be able to absorb much of this without having to memorize
using the first one as an example:
$(a+b)^2 \
=(a+b)(a+b) \
=a(a+b)+b(a+b) \
=a^2+ab+ab+b^2 \
=a^2+2ab+b^2$
GoldenPhoenix
notice how for lines three and four I distributed the entire first binomial into the second one.
This is often done through the FOIL method, where FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last, as a reminder to multiply each part of the first set of parentheses with each part of the second set.
I am very confused still , that’s the thing that’s stopping me from understanding
I feel like I have neglected middle school algebra and this is why I’m failing to understand the ways it’s being done
But thanks for mentioning the methods , I’ll try to look for videos that explain it with these examples , if you know any please send the links for them
can you name the specific part that's confusing you, or is it just a general fuzziness?
I guess general fuzziness because i haven’t done math in a long while
Like I understand what some sentences try to mean but when I imagine putting them into practice I just don’t get it and then I reflect back it turns out I don’t get what the sentence means from the start
that's fair. I recommend looking up some more basic concepts like distribution for multiplication, which is the foundation of how this works

hello
is anyone now

,rotate
why it is not minus 1
you gotta be careful, you can't take a cube root of a binomial like that
princeton lifesaver page69 lol
when you have a plus sign under a radical, you need to make sure that the entire thing is an expanded power before taking the root, you can't just do it term by term
where would the -1 be?
Just leading power of that
thx bro
say...I only do that step by step?
I see now
it is not a standard-form of poly

wait nvm
so dab is 95?
nvm forget what i said
ok
my brain lagging, i was seeing a trapezium idk how
but yes it's the same
dab is 85
k
yes, since DAB + CBA=180, CBA+A=180
just use exterior angle theorem x=A+ABD

vertices?
Just calculate those three dot products
@bronze hazel Has your question been resolved?
<PQR
so
basically find vectors PQ, QR, PR
use the dot product rule such that it equals 0
then you know which angle is 90degrees
which is angle PQR

How would I express answers in rational form?
do you know what a rational form is?
i would just calculate it tbh
2^6=64
1^4=1
so you get (16*64)^1/2
and note that 16=4^2 and 64=8^2
so sqrt(1664)=48=24
or just say that sqrt(16*x^6y^4)=4x^3y^2
i think so
Doesnt look right to me
it is
wdym
Question asked specifically to express in rational form with positive exponents
one second writing it up
ig he meant to say that you can write it in the form (54)^-1
but representing the answer as 1/54 is correct
as its just the correct representation of the answer that the question is asking for and 1/54 is rational and doesn't have any negative exponent
and also we can write 24 as (1/24)^-1
so would you say that 24 is incorrect answer?
i think so
yes, (16 * 2^6)^(1/2) = (2^4 * 2^6) ^(1/2) = (2^10)^1/2 = 2^(10/2) = 2^5
for a)
yeah it's 32
so did I get mine right?
yes you did
yes, thats incorrect. Where did the (2^2) in the first line come from?
?
yes so if you rewrite the numbers inside the paranthesis into rational form you should get
(2^4 * 2^6 * 1) ^(1/2)
seems like you wrote 2^2 instead of 2^6
@hard mountain very long way of explain
@azure trout 7a) (16x^6y^4) = 4x^3y^2, sub x=2 y=1 then u get 4(2)^3 which is 2^5
2^5 isnt rational form
oh
is this right
going to check it now
7b) can also be written in rational form with positive exponents
this is right
1/54 is the right value, but isn't what the question was really asking for. To write it in rational form: 1/54 = 1/(2 * 27) = 1/(2 * 3^3)
wdym
but is it the right value
random question, are you saying that 1/54 is the wrong form?
yes
how?
think it should be 1/(2 * 3^3)
reason?
question asked to express it in rational form with positive exponents
you're right, it does technically meet the requirements
yeah forgot everything i said. 8a) is correct
1/54 is a technically a rational form with a positive exponent. A rational exponent form, however, would have been 1/(2 * 3^3)
rational number = a/b for some natural numbers a, b ?
it wants it in exponential form
rational number = a/b for every real number where b not equal to 0
it doesnt say that it wants it in exponential form
it says that it needs to have a positive exponent
lol ok bro write that as the answer
hhh, its always an interpretation issue
1^1 / 54 ^ 1
but it's exponent is positive
like 7a) was 2^5
thats assuming they wanted "rational exponent form", but the question actually says "rational form with positive exponents"
but it's still a positive exponent
bruh fo sho
thats what i thought too. Question is should we answer what we think they want, or what the question actually asks for ?
depends on the teacher ig

I've solved this but got - 4th root of 2
where as my prof got it positive
why did he do it like this ?
i instead got this
sqrt( x * ( 1/6x - 1)) => sqrt(x) * sqrt(1/6x - 1)
what is correct now ?
wow ok
the 2nd step is already too much for me
and then the x = -n
never have seen this before
ok this makes sense
now why di the prof all of the sudden took the absolut value ?
whats the reason for that
you mean the part marked in yellow?
yes
@keen python Has your question been resolved?
but look sqrt(6-x) = sqrt(x * (6/x -1) ... why all of the sudden -x * (1-6/x)
ahhh by in my case....
sqrt(x * (6/x -1) -> sqrt(x) * sqrt(6/x -1)
sqrt(x) would be a complex number right ?
yes ,sqrt(x) is a complex number because x<0
but still we could just do
sqrt(|x| * (6/x -1))
the order of 1 and 6/x is reversed
ye but why
and -x is positive
sqrt(-x) is OK
so again its not complex number
I see I get it, since x < 0...
6/x - 1 would be an negative number, and that under the root, wouldnt work out
thats why we tricked around
correct
you should ensure the number under square root is always positive
the imaginary number is not considered
and -6/x does not need to be absolut
bc x is <0 thefor -6 / some number < 0 => positive
yes
hahaha actually no, you can directly get the answer from the second formula
but it's limited to this question because the largest power is an even number
change the variable is a safer method
my solution is simpler i think
the -∞ goes to +∞
only when x goes to -∞
other than going from -inf to inf, i dont see what it changes
but if we look at the professors approach
then going to +inf
would have been easier
so i wouldnt need to take care of -negatve value in root right ?
yes , but +∞ means you donnot need to consider the change of +and-
ye
thats the advantage
i will keep this in mind and also your root trick is also nice
thanks for the help !

why is the graph a loop?
Obvious typo lol

I missed a bracket there but sinx and tanx are being multiplied on the right hand side
@austere smelt Has your question been resolved?
I can't help, other than by telling you that it's not clear what the question is
Please state what the question is
it's a trigonometric identity where you need to make either side equal to the other
to prove that the statement is true
here I'm trying to make the left hand side equal to the right hand side ( sinx * tanx )
(1-cosx)(cosx+1)
=cosx+1-cos^2x-cosx
=1-cos^2x
Yet you wrote down cos^2x-1
ooh

(1,2) and (2,1)?
yes i have given a counter example
(1,2) is not in R but....
im not seeing where the miscommunication here is
yes you want a counter example to show that the second relation is not symmetric
which means you needs to find (x,y) in R such that (y,x) is not in R
I gave you two ordered pairs
you tell me exactly what it means for a relation to be symmetric
(1,2) is in R but (2,1) is not, so not symmetric

How would I transform an appropriate base function for this?
What do you think is the base function?
f(x)=x^2?
why did you choose that one?
You have a function which has been transformed
Yes
Your job is to understand what transformations have been used and to obtain that function, but with the least amount of transformations possible
What transformations can you see in this one?
Compression by a factor of 4
Translated down 7 units
Ummmm
That’s all I can tell so far lol
What do I do with the exponent? 😅
$2^{x-5}$
Nonna
That looks like a translation on the x axis to me
I’m not that familiar lol
Ok, let's say you have a transtation vector
which says how much you are translating a function on the x and y axis
Nonna
When you have a function, to translate it by that translation vector you subtract each component to the variable you want to translate
Let's make an example
v(3, 2)
f(x) = y = 3x²
that becomes
(y - 2) = 3(x - 3)²
or
y = 3(x - 3)² + 2
I’m so confused
Ok
let's say you want to translate f(x) = x² (totally unrelated function) and you want it to go 2 upwards and 5 on the right
it becomes
y - 2 = (x - 5)²
and usually is written like
y = (x - 5)² + 2

2^(x - 5) probably means that they translated the function 5 steps on the right
It just becomes 2x
do you mean 2^x?
Yes oops 😭
So how would I get my points from@the base function
What do you mean?
Look at b)
Oh
What do they mean by "in mapping the base function onto the given one"? Do you just have to say which transformations took place?
Also is it a vertical or horizontal compression
I think so
Stretches: g(x) = f(c · x) [c>1]
Compressions: g(x) = f(c · x) [0<c<1]
I thought it was the other way around?
Ayy, my bad ahah
lol no problem
So what kind of compression is it? Horizontal or vertical
It looks horizontal
I'm pretty sure it's vertical
Have a fabulous day!! 
nice

For question 4, how do i start with finding y = 1/f(x)?
Like do i find the intercepts first or
for starters, write what 1/f(x) is... derive the asymptotes
then you may use the derivatives to figure the highs and the lows, pick out some points of the curve for your convenience and sketch it
hmm
ohh
if u sub the bottom equation for 0 the x is rly weird tho..
-.49663
btw, just so you know, you can think about f(x) as the graph of ln(x) moved 1/2 to the left and ln 2 + 5 upwards
it's just $y = \ln (x + 1/2) + (\ln 2 + 5)$
Arya
oh right that makes sense
wait but do i need that when i wanna sketch the reciprocal?
wait also how do i find the vertical asym lol, is it this?
yeah
the answer is really weird thou, alot of decimal places
no worries? you just need to sketch a rough graph-
oh lol
okay so ive found that
now ill find the y intercept?
when do i know if i have to use differenciation to find the turning points?
yes... points on the curve like: 'as x tends to infty', 'when y = 0', etc. helps understand how the graph roughly looks like
the icing on the cake is when you take derivatives, as the first derivative helps you check when the graph starts falling and when it starts rising
Oh so do i have to find it everytime i draw a graph?
Or only when the question explicitly asks for the rising/falling points
the second derivative helps you derive whether the graph is convex or concave in an interval
I mean, it's suggested to do so whenever you're plotting a graph
looks correct
except, you could literally have used $\frac{e^{-5}-1}{2}$ instead of -0.4966
Arya
Also
wait lmao
what's with the left end of your graph...
you need to make it so it looks like it's descending along the asymptote and not like as if it's about to intersect it-
stretch it just a little more so the steep descent is actually visible and you should be fine
great
,w plot y = 1/[ln(2x+1) + 5]
,w ln e
:p the 'ln' for wolfram is log as the natural base is e
if it's any other, it'd simply mention the base
ohh makes sense
all is good yes
Actually do u mind helping me check this part as well ◉‿◉

Hi,
I came across this question and I can't seem to figure out how to even start solving it. I don't even know how to search for methods for these types of questions.
Could someone possibly explain how I could solve these types of questions?
Please ping me if you reply, thanks!
Let 'x' be the total quantity (in ml)
Sarah drank x/3 amy drank x/4
Given that (x/3) - ( x/4) = 100
Solving the equation, you get x=1200
So the answer is 1200-300-400 = 500
Wow, I never thought of it like that. Thanks for your help!

Is this super easy? As in saying $f(x,y)=u(x,y)$ then $u_x=v_y=0$ and $v_x=0$ so $f^\prime(z)=0$?

Yeah u is constant therefore f is constant

segs
how do i think about this?
Use exponent identity:
$$a^b = e^{b\ln{(a)}}$$
Umbraleviathan
$=5(1+(\frac{4}{5})^{n})^{\frac{1}{n}}$
Cogwheels of the mind
(4/5)^n tends to zero?
Yeah, but you need to be more rigorous: 1<=1+(4/5)^n<=3/2 for n large enough, so 1<=(1+(4/5)^n)^(1/n)<=(3/2)^(1/n)
Take limit on left and right hand side you will see the limit of the middle term which is what you are looking for
where is the 3/2 coming from
left and the right side of the inequality?
hello
Or just
Use Hopital :
That limit equals the limit of
$e^{\frac{In(\frac{4}{5})(\frac{4}{5})^{n}}{1+(\frac{4}{5})^{n}}}$
Cogwheels of the mind
Therefore =e^0=1
Never mind, I thought it was wrong, but it’s correct on second thought
the answer is 5
Yeah , limit of 1 and limit of (3/2)^(1/n) are both 1
i will get 5 but i have one thing im stuck on
You forgot 5 in the front
5 multiplied by the thing whose limit is 1
ok so the middle limit is also 1?
I took 3/2 cause it’s a number greater than 1, can be anything you like, 3/2, 2,7,100…
Yeah
the l hopital method looks a bit confusing cuz we have not learnt much of derivatives yet, only some basics.. we applied it on this step?
Yeah I brought up hopital cause I thought my first thought was wrong, but my first thought is actually correct so never mind that hopital thing
how would i find the limit of (1/n)(4/5)^n
n tend to infinity
hey segss
Actually it’s true for any a>0, people who answered that guy explained in their answers
ok but
what abt this
here what does n tend to?
Infinity
okay i see
ok i found this
by using l hopital💀 , this is a part of the basic differentiation i know
it comes 0
and i get 5
but i remember our teaher saying theres many places i cant use it, and i also doont know how to check when to use it
0/0 or infinity/infinity
f/g should be one of those two kinds
And f’/g’ should also be of those kinds or it has limit
not those
What do you mean
f and g differentiable in neighbourhood of a except possibly at a and find interval around n where g' is never zero except possibly at a
I expand them to be real functions
f(x)=In(1+(4/5)^x)
g(x)=x
When limit f(x)/g(x) exists then limit f(n)/g(n) also exists and it equals limit f(x)/g(x)
im not sure what this mean💀
Here
as in what is a real function
I mean I expand them from a function N—>R to (0,infinity)—>R
what does x tend to here?
Positive Infinity
is N set of natural numbers?
Yeah
we can change the domain?
Why not I just did
Because of this
if x tend to positive infinity is this limit equal 0?
what is the benefit of replacing x by n
why cudnt we use it before
okay so when we use n, we talking abt the function N-->R, and when were talking abt x we mean function (0,inf)-->R
Depends, this case it is functions from (0,infinity) to R, or [0, infinity) to R,
Can be an another interval , just depend on questions
We don’t ask why we do something, you can do whatever you want, as long as you make no mistake in your steps
are we talking about both f and g?
or just f
Both
as in the f/g form?
Yeah
Whatever you want, (1 million,infinity), (7π,infinity)
We only need the limit when x approaches infinity
(-1375926, infinity), whatever
Or just R
💀 but that might be wrong still cuz the domain of f/g is R-{0}, i can see it wont have any effect on finding the limit
but thank you for your help, i have to go now

does this logic work,
for all A, B is true (given)
if B is true, there is a chance for A to be true (conclusion)
if B is true for all A then A must be true for a subset of B, yes
every cat is an animal but not every animal is a cat
how would i write this with logic symbols?
$$\forall a \in A : B(a)$$
$$\not \forall b \in B : A(b)$$
illuminator3
the first line is about for all a in the set A where B is true
second is there is some b in B where the set A contains it?
not for all b in B, A is true
=> there is some b in B for which A is true
in other words for some b in B?
and the A(b) part means for some b in B, A of this is true
this being b
so the b is true under condition A
in the animal example it would be there is some animal that is a cat
yes
ok, what's the difference between the small a and the big A
small one just means any one u select
small a is one big A is all
ok ok 👍
thank you very much for the help lost so much of this from 2years ago haha

According to textbook, the set S of all positive integers which are perfect squares is countably infinite with f:N->S: f(n)=n^2 as bijective function. Now, why is this function bijective? It isn't surjective. For instance, -2 can't be mapped to S.
@ebon bloom -2 is not in S
N and S both contain only positive numbers, no?

$x^{\frac a b} = \sqrt[b]{x^a}$

@fair ingot Has your question been resolved?
When you have a variable raised to a power then raised to another power you just multiply the exponents
ok in general, $\left(a^b\right)^c = a^{bc}$
geometric
so you can rearrange the expression to ${4}^{\frac{5}{3}\cdot\frac{6}{5}} \cdot {a}^{\frac{2}{3}\cdot\frac{6}{5}}$

Let $A \in K^{n,n}$ be a matrix.
If $\lambda \in K$, then the set forms $VA(λ) = {v \in K^{n,1}
\mid Av = \lambda v}$ a subspace of $K^{n,1}$.
When exactly is $VA(\lambda) = {0}$?
Levens
When lambda is not an eigenvalue

✅
per definition of what an eigenvalue is
lambda is an eigenvalue if and only if there is a nonzero x with Ax=lambda x if and only if VA(lambda) is not {0}
so any other value would always give {0}?
lambda is an eigenvalue of A <=> there exists v != 0 such that Av = lambda v
hence lambda not eigenvalue <=> only v such that Av = lambda v is v = 0

now this :)
do i have to actually put in values? I don't see a way to do it analytically
sin(x) = sin(pi - x)
consider factorising the denominator as well
and applying limit identites
you can also choose to do a sub to get something more recognisable
im confused
if you cant immediately spot what to apply
what do you have after applying
sin(x) = sin(pi - x)
and factorising the denominator
best you can do is look it up and find a translation
Hmm u forgot to replace the x with t+pi if u take t= x-pi
what is t
did you look up "substitution"?
yep
t is another variable
im substituting x for pi
no
that's not what i'm recommending you do
do a substitution to change the variable to get something nicer
we already know that plugging in x=pi will get you 0/0 (an indeterminate form)
so what we currently want is to do some manipulation, apply some identities and cancel the components responsible for that 0/0 indeterminate form
which will allow you to evaluate the limit
ok, what identities would allow me to do this?
the one involving
$$\lim_{k\to 0}\frac{\sin(k)}{k}$$
ℝamonov
Do u know l'hospital rule?
yes
ok that's where I got to
@gray isle I know im difficult lol. If it were up to me I wouldn't take this course :)
but if you can walk me through it it would be greatly appriciated
ideally your substitution would've directly led to you having sin(t)
anyway since you did this, you can apply sin(-t) = -sin(t)
ok. now what do I do with the (t+pi)
leave it as it is for now
after applying the odd property of the sine function you'll have
$$\lim_{t \to 0} \frac{-\red{\sin(t)}}{(t+\pi)\cdot {\red{t}}}$$
ℝamonov
you can then consider more limit properties to get
$$\br{\lim_{t \to 0} -\frac{1}{t + \pi}} \cdot \underbrace{\br{\lim_{t \to 0} \frac{\sin(t)}{t}}}_{\text{you correctly identified this to be 1 earlier}}$$
ℝamonov
which is just -1/pi
yes
and that's the final answer right
