youre overthinking it

#

$\int_a^b f(x) \dd{x}$ gives the area under the graph of $y=f(x)$ (whatever $f(x)$ may be) between $x=a$ and $x=b$

ocean sealBOT
vale wigeon
#

and in this case you are integrating the constant function 4

tropic oasis
#

so it would be a straight line going through y=4?

lone heartBOT
#

@tropic oasis Has your question been resolved?

vale wigeon
#

the horizontal line going through (0,4) if you will

tropic oasis
#

okay got it

#

i got area is 16

tropic oasis
#

4*4=16

#

does that sound correct?

vale wigeon
#

the width is what?

tropic oasis
#

well like the shape

vale wigeon
#

the shape goes from 0 to 3 on the x-axis

tropic oasis
#

of the line on x=0 and x=3

vale wigeon
#

and how does that give a width of 4

tropic oasis
#

wait

#

i confused myself

#

with the 0

#

it should be 4*3?

#

=12?

vale wigeon
#

yes

tropic oasis
#

okok

#

ty!!

I need help finding a probability of a system in a video game.

I have had an average of 73 (pity) across 8 trials (rolls)

i have a data set here, column D is what i'm mostly intrested in.

I have been told that the mean is ~69.4 and the standard deviation is ~14.5 (im assuming this is correct)

i want to know what the probability of getting an average of 73 across 8 trials.

currently i've gotten a chance of 681.495041708 our of 1 000 000 but I dont believe that thats correct.

mighty arrow
#

here is the work for my result of 681/1000000

#

0.40196 is the result for X>73

#

this may seem simple but i have zero experience with standard deviations

#

also i want to know how to find the probability of this for any number of trials

placid zinc
#

What is a pity? What is a roll?

mighty arrow
#

so

placid zinc
#

Note that the normal distribution is just an approximation. It may be a little weak if you only have 8 trials

#

Also may not matter if you are just trying to get ideas

mighty arrow
#

okay the complete context is

#

genshin impact is a gacha game

#

in this game you can "roll"

#

a roll in an attempt to get a valuable item

#

every unsucessful roll adds to a "pity counter"

#

your pity is the roll number where you got the valuable and can be between 1 and 90

placid zinc
#

Okay so the chances you're successful change, based on how unlucky you've previously been?

mighty arrow
#

there is a data set for the sucsessfull roll pity and looks something like this

#

the data that matters is distibution of sucessfull pulls

#

pull = roll

mighty arrow
#

the mean average pity is 69.4 (from what ive been told)

placid zinc
#

Ok I see. Your odds increase if you've gone ~70 without a success

mighty arrow
#

my average pity is 73 (from getting 8 valuables)

placid zinc
#

Okay. So, the bottom right is pretty important. However, it looks nothing like a normal distribution.

#

So, normal distribution calculations won't work well on it

#

Luckily, they've done that calculation for you, and put it into that top chart

mighty arrow
mighty arrow
placid zinc
#

The probability that you'll get it in less than 73 pulls looks to be approx 35%?

#

Just looking at that chart anyway

#

You probably have the raw data already

mighty arrow
#

yeah

#

the columns for the chart are

C = IF(B90<74,0.6/100, C89+6/100)
D = (1-SUM(D$1:D89))*C90
E = D90*B90```
#

the pity count is shifted by +1 from the row number

#

the functions are taken from pity number 89

mighty arrow
lone heartBOT
#

@mighty arrow Has your question been resolved?

mighty arrow
#

i assume the probability would go down with increased trials

#

like the probability of getting 90 is ~1% but the probability of geting 90 twice is 1%^2

#

but i dont think thats the right method

#

because 73 isnt far from 69 and i dont think the average would be 0.075/1000000 to get a 74 average across 18 trials

#

imma try to better phrase my question.

#

given the data set / graph (distribution of sucessful pulls)
ive detemined the average mean to be ~69.4.

#

with this, i want to find the probability of getting a mean average of X or higher, given a sample size of Y samples (from the data set)

#

for example, i know the probability of getting N>69.4 being 50%

#

what is the probability of the mean average being > 69.4 given 15 trials

#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

is it just 0.5^15?

#

and is there a way to find this for anu data set and with any values of X & Y, because i have been unable ti find one.

#

ngl this channel is prolbably gonna get timed out

placid zinc
#

What is a "mean average"?

#

What is a "sample"?

#

Getting N > 69.4? What's N?

mighty arrow
#

mean average is the mean of all the samples plots in the graph

#

sample is a random selection of a data point

placid zinc
#

Mean of a plot?

mighty arrow
#

so you would have a 50% chance to get higher / lower when taking a sample

placid zinc
#

What is getting "higher" or "lower"?

mighty arrow
#

the mean average i want to test the probability of is the average of Y random samples being greater than a value X

mighty arrow
mighty arrow
placid zinc
#

You're trying to make it as vague as possible but that's going the wrong way. This made a bit more sense when it was a game

mighty arrow
#

sorry

#

im very bad at explaining things

placid zinc
#

yeah, but i want to know the probability of my average pity of getting a valuable being equal to or greater than x with n valuables being obtained

#
  • That one seemed important
mighty arrow
#

yeah

placid zinc
#

But my problem is that I don't think I understand the pity system

#

Actually, that "per pull probability" chart might be the correct thing to use

mighty arrow
#

the pity system is just based on this graph, the details arent important, just know the chance of getting a valueable on a certain pity is exactly the percentage on the graph

mighty arrow
#

the important one is ,for every valuable gotten, what is the pity it was obtained at

#

which is the sucsessful pull one

placid zinc
#

Right. That's what you want to know more about

#

One sec I'll read the site

#

I don't see where they give pity a number?

#

Like, what's the pity at if you fail pull 75?

mighty arrow
#

oh

#

pity is just the pull number

placid zinc
#

OH

mighty arrow
#

so if i got a valuable at pull 60, i got it at 60 pity

#

yeah sorry i shouldve made that way more clear

placid zinc
#

I think they're using "pity" as the sharp incline on the bottom left graph

mighty arrow
#

thats "soft pity"

placid zinc
#

But regardless. Okay. So you want to know "what's the probability that you get n items in less than x pulls"?

mighty arrow
#

no, kinda the opposite

#

if i get n items, whats the probability that the average pity is greater than x

placid zinc
#

Oh I see.

#

n items being your sample, you want to know the mean "difficulty" in attaining them

mighty arrow
#

yeah basically

placid zinc
#

I have good news and bad news

mighty arrow
#

huh

placid zinc
#

If n is somewhat large (like n = 30) then the central limit theorem kicks in, and the thing you are asking for is well approximated by a normal distribution

#

For the bad news,
if n is fairly small, then this will be so messed up, I doubt it has a closed form

mighty arrow
#

Oooh. so thats why i was told to find the standard deviation

placid zinc
#

You are better off using a programming solution for small n

mighty arrow
#

yeah a programming soution would probably work...

#

ill see what i can come up with...

median leaf
#

hey in my class tmrw, we are going to go over the FTC and i am just trying to read a bit ahead so i wont be lost, can someone explain how this works?

vale wigeon
#

FTC?

#

fundamental theorem of calculus?

median leaf
#

yes

#

i like

#

dont really know whats going on

#

how is it useful?

#

i dont get how a function can be an area of another function

#

when that should mean it should be a horizontal line

vale wigeon
#

a function is just a thing that takes in a number and returns a number (in the simplest case)

median leaf
#

okay

#

it kinda makes sense

#

this just means integral of f(t)

#

not like

vale wigeon
#

this means integral of f(t) over the interval [a,x]

median leaf
#

integral of f(t) from a->x * dt

#

well

#

ok

vale wigeon
#

the interval of integration depends on the input to g

median leaf
#

so its saying that the integral function(?) of a given function is also continuous and differentiable on the same interval as the given function and its derivative is the same as the given function

#

idk if "integral function" is the right word

karmic rapids
median leaf
#

oh is that the term

vale wigeon
#

yeah integrand

#

also you don't need f to be differentiable

#

just continuity will suffice

median leaf
#

okay

#

i think it kinda clicks

#

the FTC really just shows the relationship between derivatives and integrals

#

bc the 2nd part is much much more intuitive to me

#

cuz i kinda figured it out in my head already

#

where the integral of f(x) from an interval [a,b] is the same as the difference of the antiderivatives

#

on the end points

karmic rapids
ocean sealBOT
#

illuminator3

karmic rapids
median leaf
#

oh yeah yeah

#

its like a staircase

#

if you go up the staircase of 2x

#

it goes like 2x-> x^2 -> x^3 /3 ... etc

#

which is integration?

#

and down the staircase is like

#

differentiation

#

this is mindblowing NGL LMAO

#

Isn't $2x+dx^2$ ?

lone heartBOT
ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

lean depot
#

No, because we divide by dx on the bottom

#

(dx)^2/dx = dx

alpine sable
#

ah you mean, $x^{2}+2x.dx/{dx} + dx^{2}-x^{2}/dx$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

alpine sable
#

Thanks.

lean depot
#

Ok I need you to be a bit more precise with this

alpine sable
#

I thought i can just replace that dx with 1 because there is dx.

lean depot
#

You're writing dx^2 ,but you need to be writing (dx)^2

#

Just as a first thing

lean depot
#

Let's try from the top

alpine sable
vale junco
#

Doesn't everything cancel?

lean depot
#

It will cause issues in the future

#

let's work this out

alpine sable
#

Ah

vale junco
#

I'm confused

alpine sable
#

Thank you.

lean depot
#

$\frac{x^2 + 2x\cdot\mathrm dx + (\mathrm dx)^2 - x^2}{\mathrm d x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

What I notice first is that on the numerator, the $x^2$s cancel

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

so in fact this is equal to

vale junco
#

Yes

#

Everything cancels

lean depot
#

$\frac{ 2x\cdot\mathrm dx + (\mathrm dx)^2 }{\mathrm d x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

Not everything cancels, I disagree with that

vale junco
#

Why

alpine sable
lean depot
#

But now this is much simpler right?

alpine sable
#

Yes

lean depot
#

Now this is where the confusion seems to be

#

Because I say that

#

$\frac{ 2x\cdot\mathrm dx + (\mathrm dx)^2 }{\mathrm d x} = 2x + \mathrm dx$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

Do you agree with that?

vale junco
#

I do but when u multiply by dx everything cancels

lean depot
#

I'm sorry mope, I still don't see what you mean by that, but this is shihab's question so I'm going to continue

vale junco
#

ok

#

Sorry

alpine sable
lean depot
#

No worries

#

OK so I think there's some confusion here regarding how fractions work

#

Let's ignore the dxs for a bit

alpine sable
#

yes

lean depot
#

Let's just say this

#

$\frac{a\cdot x + b\cdot x}{x} = ?$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

Do you think you can simplify this expression into something nicer?

alpine sable
#

yes

lean depot
#

What do you reckon it is?

alpine sable
#

$\frac{a\cdot x}{x}+\frac{b\cdot x}{x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

lean depot
#

Yeah great start

#

Can you simplify it even further?

alpine sable
#

yeah i think

#

$\frac{a}{x}\cdot\frac{x}{x}+\frac{b}{x}\cdot\frac{x}{x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

lean depot
#

OK, sorry

#

This is wrong

alpine sable
#

Ah

#

oh yeah

lean depot
#

OK, so you seem to be struggling with fractions

alpine sable
#

i forgot

lean depot
#

Oh do you want to give it another shot?

alpine sable
#

yes

#

$a\cdot\frac{x}{x}+b\cdot\frac{x}{x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

lean depot
#

Yes, this is right

alpine sable
#

yeah

lean depot
#

Now there's a really great simplification you can do here. I'll wait for you to spot it.

#

Tip: What is x/x?

alpine sable
#

hmmm

#

1

#

so

lean depot
#

Great

alpine sable
#

$a\cdot1+b\cdot1$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

lean depot
#

And....

alpine sable
#

which is a+b

#

Thank you

lean depot
#

OK

#

So I want to just reflect on this for a second

vale junco
#

So everything does cancel

lean depot
#

mope, I don't think this is helpful right now

#

You had this: $\frac{a\cdot x}{x}+\frac{b\cdot x}{x}$

vale junco
#

Fine

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

Now shihab, I just want you to appreciate that when you have the fraction symbol, what it means is that you divide the thing on top by the thing on the bottom

#

So let's just focus in on a.x/x

#

$\frac{ax}{x}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

This is: a times x, then divided by x

#

Right?

alpine sable
#

yeah

lean depot
#

So it's just a!

alpine sable
#

yes

lean depot
#

$\frac{a\cdot x}{x} = a$

#

Great

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

We're clear on that?

alpine sable
#

x cancels x it will result 1

alpine sable
lean depot
#

Yeah that's another way of seeing it

#

OK so let's go back to our problem

#

$\frac{ 2x\cdot\mathrm dx + (\mathrm dx)^2 }{\mathrm d x} = 2x + \mathrm dx$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

Now I'm just gonna remind you

#

$(\mathrm dx)^2 =(\mathrm dx)\cdot(\mathrm dx)$

ocean sealBOT
#

Boytjie

lean depot
#

So can you use this rule to show why it's 2x + dx?

alpine sable
#

yes

lean depot
#

Can you give it a shot?

alpine sable
#

yes

lean depot
#

Go ahead!

alpine sable
#

$2x\cdot\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm d x}+\mathrm dx \cdot \frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dx}= 2x + \mathrm dx$

ocean sealBOT
#

Shihab

alpine sable
#

So it is 2x + dx and not 2x + dx^2

lean depot
#

Hey that's right!

#

Yeah

#

Do you think you can see why, in a conceptual way, now?

alpine sable
#

Yes because the + in fraction can collect multiple numbers i mean the bottom one so when we cancel some numbers we should know that bottom number is not just one number.

#
  • and -
lean depot
#

Sounds good to me

#

Happy with that?

alpine sable
#

Yeah, i know now thank you!

lean depot
#

No problem

function that is not like f(x)=x+a when a is constant

oak perch
#

f(3n) can be anything

clear tendon
#

f cant be f(x)=x^2

#

I can't sent the question because of it not in English

#

and translator don't work good for Discrete mathematics

oak perch
#

$f(n)=\frac{(w^{n}-w)(w^{n}-w^{2})}{(1-w)(1-w^{2})}g([\frac{n}{3}])+\frac{(w^{n}-1)(w^{n}-w^{2})}{(w-1)(w-w^{2})}(g([\frac{n}{3}])+1)+\frac{(w^{n}-1)(w^{n}-w)}{(w^{2}-1)(w^{2}-w)}(g([\frac{n}{3})])+2)$ for any g from $N_{0}$ to $N_{0}$, where $w=\frac{-1}{2}+\frac{\sqrt{-3}}{2}$

Cogwheels of the mind

#

I don't this that what they meant, i need to say the size of the set of the funcion is bigger then א0

#

alef zero

oak perch
#

Size is cardinality of {maps from N_0 to N_0}

clear tendon
#

the problem is they what me to prove bigger than alef zero with Cantor's diagonal argument

oak perch
#

Not sure whether it’s greater than alef zero

oak perch
clear tendon
#

they want me to prove it not countable set

oak perch
#

Got it:

clear tendon
#

you not need to try and google translate it

#

I told you everything by now

clear tendon
oak perch
#

Suppose {g: g is a map from N_0 to itself } is countable, so it equals {g_1,g_2,…}
Then you have a list
g_1(1),g_1(2),…
g_2(1),g_2(2)…

Let g(n)=g_n(n)+1
Then g doesn’t equal any those g_n, contradiction

#

Therefore it’s greater than alef zero

clear tendon
#

i have hard time making the new function that don't have an origin

oak perch
#

N_0 includes 0? Then just fix the list

clear tendon
oak perch
#

And I proved it

oak perch
#

If g=g_n for some n, then g_n(n)=g(n)=g_n(n)+1 contradiction

#

Your set has a bijection to {maps from N_0 to itself}
Mapping f to g where g(n)=f(3n)

clear tendon
#

sorry

oak perch
clear tendon
#

but I don't thing I'm following sorry my English is not good enough to discus

oak perch
#

Me neither, but I don’t think there is any obstacle made by language

#

Any part that you don’t understand?

clear tendon
#

let's start from what i did

oak perch
clear tendon
#

I made this set to describe any function that follow the conditions

oak perch
#

That is not true

#

Told you your original set is bijective to set of all maps from N_0 to N_0

clear tendon
#

but I think now it not enough and i forgot some

oak perch
clear tendon
#

i don't really know what bijective to set mean

oak perch
#

Means there is a bijection from your original set, to the set of maps from N_0 to N_0

clear tendon
#

wiki after i know

oak perch
#

I let this bijection be such a map: mapping f to g, where g(n)=f(3n)

oak perch
clear tendon
#

I'm sorry i need to go thx for the help

oak perch
#

Whatever

Need help checking if this is true

lone heartBOT
vale wigeon
#

vacuously

#

unless the pi is not meant to be taken as meaning the circle constant

flat saddle
#

by it saying less than 3.14 it means 3.139999999 and below

#

or just 3.13

vale wigeon
#

no, it does not mean 3.1399999990 and below.

#

less than 3.14 means less than 3.14.

flat saddle
#

ok but if I do 3.13999999 squared it is not less than 9.85

half epoch
#

Then it’s false, no? You found a value < 3.14 whose square is > 9.85, thus the proposition can’t be true

flat saddle
#

Book says it is true

vale wigeon
#

[your statement is] vacuously [true]
unless the pi is not meant to be taken as meaning the circle constant

flat saddle
#

I don't know what that means

half epoch
fresh parcel
#

How is pi less than 3.14

half epoch
#

Or 3.139

vale crag
half epoch
fresh parcel
#

Bruh

#

thats kinda 1 iq

flat saddle
#

In this case it is just a proposition

half epoch
vale wigeon
vale crag
#

But that means you have an implication with a false premise

#

Therefore the whole implication is true

flat saddle
#

I see, so they used pi as a reason, pi < 3.14 is false and pi squared < 9.85 is also false, false implies false?

vale crag
#

The otherway of interpreting the statement is thinking it is some sort of quantified statement

lean depot
vale crag
#

Ie for all pi in R, if pi < 3.14 then pi^2 < 9.85

half epoch
vale crag
#

(The pi as a variable thing)

#

And yeah the quantified stuff is false if I trust matas' calculations

flat saddle
#

I'm lost flonshed

vale crag
vale crag
flat saddle
#

Do I just treat pi < 3.14 as false and pi squared < 9.85 as false?

#

and then False implying false is true

vale crag
#

They are false (assuming pi is the circle thing)

vale crag
flat saddle

Okay, thank you everyone satisfiedblob

serene mist
#

To find the inverse function of square root of x + 1, would u swap square root of x with y or just x?

flat saddle
#

you have to do the inverse

#

to get f(x) you have to square root x and add 1

#

to get the inverse you have to do the steps backwards

#

oh

#

just swap the variables

serene mist
#

So just x and y? And not the square root

flat saddle
#

yes, just x and y, and you can see why because if you can see what the function does to x

#

f(x) takes x, square roots it and adds 1 to it

#

so the inverse would take y, square it and take 1 away

#

the answer is at the end

#

i just dont know how it got from the first step to the sexond

#

second

wary stream
#

Common denominator

#

Find a common denominator for the numerator, add/subtract them

#

Find a common denominator for the denominator part, add/subtract that

serene mountain
#

i just get x from the numerator and put it in with y/x

wary stream
#

What?

#

That makes no sense

#

Let's start one step at a time

#

What is the expression in the numerator?

serene mountain
#

plus

wary stream
serene mountain
#

x divided by y

wary stream
#

The full expression that's in the numerator

serene mountain
#

plus 1

wary stream
#

You broke it into pieces, I'm asking you for the full expression, it one text statement

serene mountain
#

x divided by y plus 1??

wary stream
#

Yes

#

What's the common denominator you need to combine those two?

serene mountain
#

1 NervousSweat

wary stream
#

No

#

How would you add 1/2 + 3?

#

What's the common denominator there?

serene mountain
#

i learned to just put the fraction into a decimal

#

im guessing 2

wary stream
#

You do not need to use decimals

serene mountain
#

6

wary stream
#

Not quite

#

I suggest reviewing how to add fractions

#

Welcome to Adding Fractions with Unlike Denominators with Mr. J! Need help with adding fractions? You're in the right place!

Whether you're just starting out, or need a quick refresher, this is the video for you if you're looking for help with how to add fractions with unlike denominators (aka - adding fractions with different denominators). Mr...

▶ Play video
serene mountain
#

im going into calculus how do i not know this shit this is embarrassing angerysad

wary stream
#

So as I stated, for step 1 to get to step 2, you need a common denominator for the expression in the numerator

#

And you need a common denominator for the expression in the denominator

edgy flare
#

If you have two fractions 1/a and 1/b and you add them. You take the denominator of the first one and multiply the second one by that denominator over itself. (1/a) + (1/b) * (a/a)

#

Notice a/a = 1

#

So you’re not changing the value of the fraction, just changing the way it looks: like 1/2 is the same value as 5/10

#

Now do the same for the second fraction to the first: (b/b) *(1/a) + (1/b) * (a/a)

#

This will make any two fractions have the same denominator so that you can add the numerator over your new denominator.

#

So in my example you should end up with: (b/ab) + (a/ab) = (b+a)/ab

serene mountain
fresh parcel
#

its okay lmao

real gazelle
#

yeah it's okay I do stuff like that all the time

#

don't sweat about it

#

just practice :)

serene mountain

#

b = 1*b

serene mountain

wait the 1 just makes it a b

edgy flare

ab=ba

No biggie

how do i find the sin equation?

#

i got y=-3sin(180x)+4

#

but idk if thats right

lone heartBOT
#

@static ibex Has your question been resolved?

static ibex
#

<@&286206848099549185>

abstract fractal
#

Show your work

static ibex
#

am i correct?

abstract fractal
#

No

static ibex
#

where did i mess up

#

im guessing the 180x

abstract fractal
#

How am I supposed to know if you don't show your work

static ibex
#

no i mean in the equation

warm apex
#

well first of all, multiplying x would compress the graph, not stretch it

iron mulch
#

Show your work broski

abstract fractal
#

The -3 looks right. That's about it. Now show work

iron mulch
#

Otherwise we can’t see where you went wrong

knotty spire
#

well the +4 is probably also correct

iron mulch
#

also it’s in degrees luffyTragic

knotty spire
#

Maybe it's a really stretched out sin

abstract fractal
#

Maybe. I didn't think about it, I just saw x=0 doesnt give 4, but if the input is wrong, then that'd make sense

iron mulch
#

I’m saying it’s in degrees and that’s disgusting

knotty spire
#

sin in degrees is like riding a bike with training wheels

knotty spire
warm apex
knotty spire
#

@static ibex So, concluding our thoughts here, send your work.

#

(Also do tell us whether your sin is in degrees or radians)

abstract fractal
#

Yeah on second thought +4 is def right

static ibex
#

i think it might be degrees

#

everything seems right except the 180 im just looking how to fix that

warm apex
#

horizontal stretch and translation are off

static ibex
#

?

knotty spire
#

or, from my physics perspective, angular frequency and initial phase angle

static ibex
#

its y=a sin(bx)+c

#

how do i find b from the graph

warm apex
#

oh wait hold on mb

knotty spire
#

There is definitely some kind of phase shift.

#

look at x=0

#

it's neither the maximum/minimum nor 4

static ibex
#

i found a from doing max-min and becuase its sin its -

#

and c from max+min/2

#

but i got something wrong finding B

knotty spire
#

well, do you know how to find the angular frequency?

#

or what you call b

static ibex
#

well i thought you just count the length between at the peeks

#

but thats wrong so idk

knotty spire
#

well and you got 180 as the distance between peaks?

static ibex
#

yes

#

i got y=-3sin(180x)+4

knotty spire
#

well that's because you misunderstand

#

what you measured is the period

#

but the coefficient b is the angular frequency

static ibex
#

ok how i find that

knotty spire
#

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T} = \frac{360^{\circ}}{T}$

ocean sealBOT
#

Remavas

knotty spire
#

where omega is the angular frequency and T is the period

static ibex
#

ok ty

knotty spire
#

For an intuitive sense, the period of a "bare" sine function is 2pi

#

So since your period is actually 180, you need to multiply your x by a factor of 2pi/180, to "slow it down"

#

,w plot -3sin(x*pi/90) + 4

static ibex
#

so b = 2?

static ibex
#

oh

knotty spire
#

well, you choose the appropriate version, for whether your sin is in degrees or radians

#

but as you can see, it still doesn't match your graph

static ibex
#

yea what happened there

knotty spire
#

there is a phase shift

knotty spire
static ibex
#

so is c 2.5 then

knotty spire
#

try plotting that

#

,w plot -3sin(x*pi/90) + 2.5

static ibex
#

bruh

knotty spire
#

Your actual equation actually needs to look like $$y = A\sin\left[{\omega(x + \delta)}\right] + C$$

ocean sealBOT
#

Remavas

static ibex
#

💀

knotty spire
#

which leaves me to wonder why you didn't include phase shiftfrom the very beginning 🤷

static ibex
#

idk what im doing

#

so what should it look like

knotty spire
#

well finding the phase shift is easy

static ibex
#

y=-3sin[??????]+2.5

#

is it +2.5 or +4

knotty spire
# ocean seal

find out by how much you need to shift this to the left/right to get the same graph as you have

knotty spire
static ibex
#

ok

#

so whats the equation

knotty spire
#

And then retry

static ibex
#

🗿

warm apex
#

oh nvm I was reading it wrong

knotty spire
#

no it's an innocent sinusoidal

warm apex
#

the distance between your peaks is 180, so your period will be 2pi/180

knotty spire
#

the angular frequency*

#

If the distance is 180

#

the period is 180

warm apex
#

I don't like using proper language :(

#

I called the phase shift horizontal translation a second ago lmao

knotty spire
#

but this is kinda important 💀

warm apex
#

to be fair they're technically the same but anyways

static ibex
#

yall are confusing me

warm apex
#

wait

static ibex
#

whats the equation supposed to look like

warm apex
#

yeah my bad you're right

static ibex
#

or what is it

#

im just trying to move on with my life here

#

i need to edit

warm apex
#

oh I just wrote mine weird sorry

#

period is 180

static ibex
#

yes

knotty spire
#

And just to show you that it is possible to solve

warm apex
#

so your equation will be y = -3sin(2pi(1/180x + phase shift))

static ibex
#

can soemone just give the equation and explain it

knotty spire
#

especially when you did all the hard work already

#

finding the horizontal shift i easy

warm apex
#

to take the phase shift into account, we want to shift 30 to the left

static ibex
#

ok yes but u just confusing me

#

i dont mean liek give it i mean explain it

#

like show the answer and how u got it

#

so i can understand

knotty spire
#

$$y = -3\sin\left[{\frac{\pi}{90}(x + \delta)}\right] + 4$$

ocean sealBOT
#

Remavas

knotty spire
#

This is what we have so far

static ibex
#

or do it with a smiliar equation or something

#

graph*

#

ok

#

what is that weird symbol

knotty spire
#

delta

#

this is what we are trying to find, the phase shift

static ibex
#

i thought there was no phases shift

warm apex
#

hm?

knotty spire
#

Now, I took the liberty to also plot our function, with no phase shift (delta=0)

warm apex
#

wouldn't it be delta/2?

knotty spire
#

orange is delta=0

#

blue is the secret function

knotty spire
warm apex
#

wait mb

#

2 delta

#

wait no

knotty spire
#

again why

warm apex
#

god

#

delta over 2

knotty spire
#

again again why

static ibex
#

ok so is the phase shift like -1.5

knotty spire
#

,w plot 2x^2 + 5x

warm apex
#

how did you go from how did you go from 2pi / 180 x to pi/90 x

knotty spire
#

@warm apex shift this to the right by 5 units for me

static ibex
#

how do i find delta

warm apex
#

2(x-5)^2 + 5(x-5)

knotty spire
# knotty spire

take the orange function, and find out by how much you need to shift it to match the blue one

knotty spire
warm apex
#

yes indeed

knotty spire
#

same with this

#

y = Asin(wx) goes to y = Asin(w(x + delta))

warm apex
#

oh my god i'm an idiot mb

knotty spire
#

Literally take any peak

#

and find the distance between the peak of our untransformed fucntion and the real one

warm apex
#

Idk why I thought we were shifting by 30

static ibex
#

ok i cant measure from your graph tho

#

whats the distance

warm apex
#

so I was confused as to why it would be 15 instead

knotty spire
warm apex
knotty spire
#

With no phase shift, at x = 0, the sin(...) part will go to zero

#

And we will be left with y = 0 + 4 = 4

warm apex
#

at x 45, y is 1

#

we want y to be 1 at x = 30

knotty spire
#

So then we find out by how much it is shifted

warm apex
knotty spire
#

we see that y = 4 occurs at x = -15

#

therefore, delta = 15

static ibex
#

-3 sin[pi/90(x+15)] + 4 ?

warm apex
#

yay

#

it is indeed

knotty spire
#

assuming your sin is in radians

knotty spire
#

in most regions, implicit multiplication by juxtaposition binds more strongly than /

#

with the exception of the US because yes

#

I wonder which convention wolfram follows

warm apex
#

if sin is in degrees, you can just replace pi/90 with 2

knotty spire
#

,w 6/2(1+2)

knotty spire
#

Ah, the American one

warm apex
#

well i mean

knotty spire
warm apex
#

this is why we use brackets 😊

knotty spire
#

Here, Julia uses the more international/scientific standard

warm apex
#

well I think it's because of bedmas/pemdas

knotty spire
warm apex
#

if we follow that, first is parentheses so 6/2(3)

#

after that, 2(3) is just seen as 2*3

#

hold on

knotty spire
#

PEMDAS gives you 9

#

The convention I brought up (which julia uses) gives you 1

warm apex
#

yeah

#

interesting, although maybe it's best to just write things out how they're meant to be

#

also I should say that with a lot of math software, typing a / will immediately give you a fraction

knotty spire
#

yep, hence why I brought it up 😉

warm apex
#

and fractions are generally treated as if they have brackets around them

#

(6/2)

knotty spire
#

And / and * have the same precedence

#

so there you have no problems

warm apex
#

,w 6÷2(1+2)

warm apex
#

magical

knotty spire
#

yeah, wolfram decided to use PEMDAS

static ibex
#

can one of yall explain this to me

warm apex
#

here's what desmos does when you type /

warm apex
# static ibex

how do you find values of x where y is at its maximum?

knotty spire
#

Heh, one reason I heard for the convention where juxtaposition binds more strongly is because of distribution. Obviously if you write something in front of parentheses, you want to distribute it

#

AND

#

6/2x

#

Pemdas would give you 3x

#

instead of 6/(2x)

#

,w 6/2x

warm apex
#

that can't be right

#

it should just be 6/2x

knotty spire
#

see, PEMDAS treats it as 6/2*x

warm apex
#

@static ibex the maximum of your equation is 2

knotty spire
warm apex
#

we know that x=30 gives y=2, how can we find out what other values for x are y=2?

static ibex
#

what does it mean by other values of x

knotty spire
#

,w plot sin(x)

knotty spire
#

e.g. sin(x) has a maximum at pi/2

warm apex
knotty spire
#

And those maximums repeat periodically

warm apex
#

how can you find the x values of the peaks for 2cos3(x-30)?

static ibex
#

oh

#

so its basically asking how to find the maximums

knotty spire
#

yes

#

given that you already know the value of one

static ibex
#

so cant you find it by simply adding

warm apex
#

well, that and the equation

knotty spire
static ibex
#

x

warm apex
#

2 = 2cos3(x-30)

#

we can say that 1 = cos3(x-30)

static ibex
#

wouldnt x+x just go to next peak

#

idk

knotty spire
#

not necessarily

#

counter-example:

#

,w plot sin(x+pi/4)

warm apex
#

this is in degrees btw

#

just gonna mention that

static ibex
#

ok so what is an equation to find other values of x

warm apex
#

cos(0) is equal to 1

#

and we know cos(3x-90) = 1 as well

#

which is what gives us x=30

knotty spire
#

I would suggest having an understanding of periodic functions

warm apex
#

i believe you can just add any multiple of 360 to x

knotty spire
#

especially after our last struggle

knotty spire
warm apex
#

well it isn't

#

but I just distributed the 3 in

#

the period for this one happens to be 120

knotty spire
#

well, if you want to solve it algebraically

warm apex
#

that's how I prefer to do it for this one

#

y = 2cos(3x-90+n*360)

#

n can be any number

#

integer

knotty spire
#

$\cos{360^{\circ}n} = 1, , n \in \mathbb{Z} \implies 3x - 90 = 360n$

ocean sealBOT
#

Remavas

warm apex
#

it's the number of the peak you're looking at

knotty spire
#

but again, this is the more tedious and boring version

warm apex
#

so at x=30, 2cos(3x-90+0) = 1

#

then at x=150, 2cos(3x-90+360) = 1

#

and so on

#

once you figure out your period is 120 you can just add 120 as many times as you want for x values

#

and if you want a formula, x=120n+30

knotty spire
# static ibex

How to find the answer in seconds: A periodic functions repeats after 1 or more period is either added or subtracted. The angular frequency here is 3 by equating this function to the general form for a sinusoidal. Therefore, the period is 360 deg / 3 = 120 deg. We know one maximum is at x = 30 deg. Therefore, every maximum is at x = 30 + 120n, where n is any integer.

warm apex
#

worded it better than I ever could

knotty spire
#

But if you are not sure, you can do it the algebraic way Neem did
