but I would have to factorise to find the solutions, wouldn't I ?
ah sorry, it says x > 0, mb
yeah
@arctic granite Has your question been resolved?
You might be able to make something using Vieta's formula
The sum of the roots is equal to (-a) in this case.
@arctic granite Has your question been resolved?
Actually the solution is very elegant
suprisingly, if you take -x-2 to RHS
and sketch the graphs
oh, that is really nice
regardless of the 'a', there would be just one positive x-value

a more generalized approach is to find the derivative and complete the square to see when the function starts increasing or decreasing
this is more or less a coincidence
or u can complete the cube and look for the discriminant
just two thoughts

Im pretty sure this is right, but just wanna double check.
well

but if you can help I would be thankful

Is this in calculus or before calc?
this is calculus
why this rong
Cool so I assume you've learned about using derivatives to find critical points
,w critical points of f(x) = 3/(x-5)
why
at 5 it does
wait no
it errors at 5
so it cant = 5
Let's take the derivative
ohhhhhhhhh oops wait lemme do that
ok i got -3/(x-5)^2
ok we should have a local max yes?
Due to its asymptotic behavior I'm not sure
wait
We can however input arbitrary values into the derivative on either side of the discontinuity and see if they're positive or negative
i got negative for both sides
^
so it never increases

Hi guys! A bitt stuck on question iii here. Just a bit lost
So far I have found the theta for i which is 63.4 degrees using sincostan, and I found the equation for the line which is y = -2x + 240
But I'm just a bit stuck on how my thought process should be for iii. I know I can find the total area of the triangle
The area of the section of the house is 1/2 x 2.4 x 1.2 which is 1.44 meter^2
I'm just kinda lost on how to determine the expression I need to work on
I think I've done something wrong. As the area of the rectangle (trunk) differentiates to -4x which doesn't make sense as I would need to equal the derivative to 0 to find the maximum area
I assumed that the height is 2x and the width of trunk to be x
I tried forming an expression that gives the area of the trunk as a function. I somehow got a negative value for x after differentiating.

I’m doing partial fraction integrals right now but I have one that’s improper
It’s the integral of x^3-x+3 / x^2 + x - 2

I'm trying to understand the limitations I should put on a bipartite graph G such that the complement of G is also bipartite.
I couldn't make of anything since it doesn't seem like the complement of any bipartite graph with more than 2 vertices will be bipartite given that the 3rd vertex will always have to connect to one of the two original vertices
in other words, a triangle can't make a bipartite hence I don't see how it's possible with bipartite graphs w/ more than 2 vertices.
what do you mean by complement
just to be sure
but if its the graph with edge set E' such that (V,E U E') is a fully connected graph
i think its very hard to have some general result about this
other than, the complement graph can be mmany many things
but not bipartite i think
@old edge Has your question been resolved?
Yes that's what I meant by complement. This is one answer I've come across, although I'm having a hard time understanding (K2 U K1) paired with P3 and C4 paired 2K2 could be valid parings.
look at the adjacency matrix
i dont even know these notations
but yeah there are a few
that have the property
oh yeah their argument is actually very good

6th
@mighty temple I'd suggest u stay as far away as possible from this troll
just send the problem and i’ll see if it’s a troll
just get the question and put it in the chat
i don’t give a shit where it comes from
ok
just dividing by decimals?
ok
so what i would do is make a box
graph
and something like this is what it should look like
say it’s 7 divided by 19.76
i’ll send a picture
i’m giving an example
that would be for multiplying after to check your work
just set it up now so you don’t have to later
what i would do is divide like you would normally do
except you have to keep your decimal points in place or it won’t work

So basically I'm stuck on getting rid of the square root and the exponent under the square root
i got x is 23
x is going to have 2 different answers
i dont know about the second one but i hope my first one is correct
i can send work if you wish
yes please
for some reason its having trouble downloading :/
oh im sorry
nevermind I got it
i hope its helpful
how did you get rid of ^3?
cube rooted it
oh okay thank you
did it help?
I think you're missing on the RHS. Wouldn't you need to have $64^4$ as well?
MellowDramaLlama
oh i think i did something wrong sorry
but the answer is still correct 🙂
im sorry i dont get what i did wrong
$\sqrt[4]{(4x + 164)^3} + 36 = 100\\$
$\sqrt[4]{(4x + 164)^3} = 64\\$
$(\sqrt[4]{(4x + 164)^3})^4 = 64^4\\$
$(4x + 164)^3 = 64^4\\$
$4x + 164 = (64^4)^{\frac{1}{3}}\\$
$4x + 164 = (64^{\frac{1}{3}})^4\\$
$4x + 164 = 4^4\\$
$4x + 164 = 256\\$
$4x = 92\\$
$x = 23\\$
MellowDramaLlama
yes i did that however i got 2^(24/8) = 2^8 = 256
just from the notes I see here
you took one side to the 4th but not the other
that's all I was saying
these are the notes we took in class but im still confused on how to get 2 answers for x
Oh i See. Yeah it's 2 answers if you take an even root
if it's odd it's only 1
so like in this, we take a cube root
which is an odd power

i'm a bit confused with the vector i've circled in red
because Y appears in the place of the x component, i'm not sure what that indicates?
well that at the point (3,1) for example you get the vector (2*1, 3)
and it looks like that? (black arrow)
i do but I might have forgotten, i probably need to practice this more. I'm only drawing one point (the one you said before)
at the point (3,1) you attach a vector (2,3)
in general at the point (x,y) you attach a vector (2y,x)
i thought that was what I did? the initial point of the vector and the final point is what you've said
the vector you attached is (-2, 2)
the vector (2,3) goes 2 units to the right and 3 units up
and you need to attach it to (3,1), aka its initial point needs to be (3,1)
like that?
yes
and would this be the graph of the vector field overall?
wth i think my lecturer said that this was the graph though?

Hi, I have a doubt. I can't remember how to solve this type of easy problem.
I have to find if the Domain and the Codomain are limited or unlimited.
I have also to determine the lower and the upper extreme, indicating if they're the maximum and the minimum of the function.
here's the graphic.
I found the Domain and the Codomain yet
Dom: x< -2 V -2 < x < 2
Codom: R
Now I can't remember which is the lower extreme. The upper is 2, but the lower is -∞ ?
My terminology might be a little different.
Do you mean you're looking for the global maximum and global minimum of the function?
In other words, the greatest output and least output from the function?
yes, I have to find them. Sorry but I have translated badly.
x
Ah okay
x∈(-∞; -2)U(-2; 2)
I mean, yeah, it looks like there is no lower extreme, and the upper extreme is 2
yes, but the -2 isn't included in the function
it doesn`t matter
and u also can`t say that upper extreme is 2
it also not included
It really depends the specific definition of 'extreme'. I think it's not really clear.
ah ok, fine. So the greatest output is 2 and the least output doesn't exist in R?
So 2 isn't the maximum of the function, but is the greatest output.
2 is the upper bound of the input
All of the inputs for which the function is defined are less than 2
yes. I'm italian and we use another lexicon, so I messed up with the terminology.
i`d say that this function has no min and max
yes because 2 isn't included
and there's no lower bound
Yeah, generally I would say that 2 is a supremum, not a maximum
I just didn't know what is meant by "extreme"
ah ok, in italian we say "massimo", in english is supremum. Ok thanks
is the upper bound
Supremum means it's greater than everything in the set, but it's not necessarily included in the set
ah ok
perfect
thank u very much
👍

Hi I would like to know how to do 11a thank you
Your setup for the 4th week needs a little adjusting
That tells you the amount of the bonus received for that week, but not the total amount accumulated
150 is the sum of the first 4 weeks' rewards
You seem to have lost a 1 on the last line
Oh 😂
Also, it looks like your use of r has changed
Your initial terms seemed to represent a geometric sequence with ratio (1-r)
Yet your updated work has ratio r
It's not necessarily wrong but be careful
so I can choose either use ratio or not to use ratio to calculate it right ?
to be consistent in order to get the right answer

could anyone give a hand on this? I mean i know how the unit vector is made but adding "t" into there kinda throws me off. Not entirely sure how to calculate the magnitude, and whether I need to calculate the magnitude at all
find magnitude of unit vector a (hat) in terms of t and make it equal 1
@raven carbon Has your question been resolved?
man idek what i'm doing somehow i'm getting t = sqrt(1/90)
what's your length of a (hat)
(in terms of t)
should be sqrt( 2t^2 )
Modus
yeah
for some reason i decided to take the denominator out and that completely messed it all up
now:
$$\sqrt{2t^2}=1$$
Modus
+/-

how do u know which values are right? help please ;-;
L: (x-3)(x-2)>=0 . R:(x-1)(x+6)>=0. Make a form to show when each side is negative, positive and equals to zero.
Yep yep. Find the set of x for which x >=0 for each of these two cases, then take the intersection of these two sets.
I think you have already found out that for x^2 - 5x + 6 >=0, x ∈ (-∞, 2]∪[3, ∞) and for x^2 + 5x - 6, x ∈ (-∞, -6]∪[1, ∞)
@rare shore Has your question been resolved?
@pure verge @faint prism well i got these values at the bottom but idk what to do with them
it’s all X >= the value ;-;
i don’t understand sorry 😔
think about it one more time
You make a form and use dot-lines for negative, line for positive, and a zero for zeros.
just consider x^2 - 5x + 6 first
oh so it’s greater than zero before 2 and after 3?
i meant the two cases you considered for |5x- 6|
i know what to do
yeah i was just supposed to do one graph not two of those separately
like draw the graph by getting all the numbers to one side right??
i...kinda lost you there
like uh
instead of drawing a graph for x^2 and |5x-6|
i draw a graph for this instead
and the other one
yeah sorry i got it thank you!!
then consider the domain of each graph, then take the intersection of both sets

question d and k
,rotate
and what is the question ? i dont understand this language
ok so what have you tried first ? what do you know about invertible function ?
we need do to 3 steps
and what are the steps ?
well yea if you want
now how do you apply this to your cases ?
i dont understand the third step and the outcome
so x = y^2 - 4y + 6
then i need to find y
yes
well, finding y ?
there is a lot of algebra method
not now
then what
try to find a way to have only y = something
now i cant say how since I would do your exercises kinda
idm
but a hint : maybe try factorisation or something else
factorisation y?
you have y^2 - 4y
you can try to factor this
your goal is to have y only
now this part is tricky
you need to see something
well i need a 👓 ig
but the goal is to have something like this : (y+a)^2 = ...
with a some constant we dont know yet
use this thing : (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
what is the outcome
did you try ?
Dont give up 
To summarize, you have :
y^2 -4y = x-6
and we want to have y alone
but we have two terms with y on the left
so it makes things complicated
I multiply both sides by -1
so, we want to only have a term with one y on the left
yeah
since we have a quadratic
I thought about this formula :
a^2 + 2ab + b^2 = (a+b)^2
so we will have something that will look like this : (y+a)^2 = something
with a some constants we still dont know
but the thing is we have y^2 - 4y
the b^2 part of this is missing
so remember this trick : we will add "0" on both sides
in other words :
y^2 -4y + 4-4 = x-6+4-4
why 4 ? because if we look at our quadratic, we have y^2 -2*2
it looks like the start of the formula I just gave : a^2 - 2ab
now I have something I can factorize
y^2 - 4y + 4 = x-6 + 4 = x-2
and y^2 - 4y +4 = (y-2)^2
now i will sqrt both side to get rid of the square
but we will have two solutions
$$y-2 = \sqrt{x-2}$$ and $$y-2 = -\sqrt{x-2}$$
Herels
ig thats a way
therefore : $y = f^{-1} (x) = \sqrt{x-2} +2$ because they said $x\geq 2$
Herels
everybody does
but its beautiful, so we kinda like it too
idk, maybe you want to do something that doesnt evolve maths
but you cant really escape it
i can

Yea, paying taxes and counting money doesnt involve maths, nice
Anyways
thats the way

We have a parabola like this. Why is it (-infinity, 0> in decreasing matter if the infinity is clearly going up?
In decreasing shouldn't it be (+infinity, 0> as the infinity is going up?
When we talk about an interval like (-inf, 0> we are talking about the values in between these numbers on the x-axis. So the "-inf" in this case is to the left on the coordinate-system.
So its about x not about y

hi i have a question about measures of positions in grouped data, when you do cf do you start from the lowest or just start from the bottom?
just a simple question

Can someone help me with formulas
So I am struggling to keep track on combination problem and I need help finding them
I have a formula for different balls in different boxes where boxes can be empty, and for identical balls in different boxes where boxes can be empty and also for if they are not empty. I have a formula for different boxes in identical boxes too. But there are four cases I can't seem to find formula for
They are
Different n balls in different k boxes (no empty box)
Different n balls in identical k boxes (boxes can be empty)
Identical n balls in identical k boxes (No empty boxes)
Identical n balls in identical k boxes (boxes can be empty)
Hi, i'm confused. What are you counting? Let's try the first one: You have n different balls and k different boxes, do you need to count what?
yeh u worded it quite confusingly. The two fundamental principles of counting I think ur getting at are 1)The number of permutations of k types of objects, each type is identical and the ith type has ni
objects, is n!/n1!*n2!....nk! where n = n1 + n2 + ... + nk. and 2)The number of ways to choose r objects from n types of objects (each type of objects is identical and has at least r objects is r + n – 1Cr =(r+n-1 over r)
problem solving questions, I kinda felt lost and I kind of need guidance to check if I am doing right and I will definitely need that sort of help on the exam.
Lets say I have n different balls that I need to put in k different boxes where no boxes are allowed to empty. Can I then use sterling number like S(n,k)*k!?
yes but u have to multiply by k! by the sterling number
its the stirling number of the second kind
What about identical n balls in k identical boxes where boxes can be empty?
@tall tusk What is this problem counting? Oh, I got it. The "number of ways to partition a set of n elements into k nonempty subsets".
yes
and the second order sterling number is really just calculating it recursively
I already have a formula for that, what I need is the number of ways to partition a set of n identical elements into k subsets where subsets can be empty?
Wait this
the cardinality of the power set right?
No wait it is not because here I said identical elements whilst it is not for the power set
(n+k-1) C(k-1)
S(m,n) = S(m – 1,n – 1) + nS(m – 1,n). this is sterling number of the second kind
Is it defined recursively?
this is
lemme give u an example
What about this?
But how do you use it?
1
yes and S(3,2) is is 3
if we have S(3,1) and S(3,2)
we can recursively define S(4,2)
by the formula I gave you: S(4,2) = S(3,1) + 2 * S(3,2) = 1 + 2 * 3 = 7.
u just plug the number in???
lets say there are 4 boxes and 2 balls
but that formula is for different n balls in identical k boxes?
(2+4-1) C(4-1)
n identical balls in k boxes such that there may be any number of balls in each box
and can be empty box
and the recursive one is putting n objects in k boxes with no empty sets
are the boxes distinct or identical
or does it work for both?
wait
i think it's just k^n
since empty sets are allowed
so if u have n objects divindg into k subsets
empty sets allowed
the total ways would just be n^k
I think that is for when the balls are different because in this case
we think all the balls are the same so 3 balls in box 1 and 3 balls in box is the same combination
yeh it is for different
for same, the ways will be less
idk a formula for it
@viral blade
maybe he can help
Yes
stars and bars method
A frequently occurring problem in combinatorics arises when counting the number of ways to group identical objects, such as placing indistinguishable balls into labelled urns. We discuss a combinatorial counting technique known as stars and bars or balls and urns to solve these problems, where the indistinguishable objects are represented by sta...
lol
this is a pretty hard one to just figure out
if you don't already know it
you end up getting like (n+k-1) choose n
for n balls and k boxes
I knew it just didn’t realize it’s the same thing
n^k is for distinguishable balls and distinguishable boxes
if both are indistinguishable you get https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partition_function_(number_theory)
In number theory, the partition function p(n) represents the number of possible partitions of a non-negative integer n. For instance, p(4) = 5 because the integer 4 has the five partitions 1 + 1 + 1 + 1, 1 + 1 + 2, 1 + 3, 2 + 2, and 4.
No closed-form expression for the partition function is known, but it has both asymptotic expansions that accur...
tl;dr it's very hard
i can't remember if there's a good way to do it when only boxes are distinguishable
under which title can i find it
There is one i found that is recursive but it apparently only works for non empty boxes
for non-empty boxes you could try to calculate the distinguishable boxes case first
then divide by k!
since every arrangement where all boxes are non-empty for indistinguishable boxes there'll be k! ways to assign labels to the boxes
also if only 1 box is empty it's still ok

What have you tried
If you increase by 20 dB, the sound is 10x as loud
The rock concert is more than 20 dB louder than normal conversation, so how could it be less than 10x?
Classic set theory question
Normal conversation is 60 dB
80 dB is 20 more than 60
So 80 dB is 10x as loud as 60 dB
What if you go another 20 dB?
Can be done easily considering the venn diagram
This isn't their channel
Who said we were decreasing?
Sorry I'm new to the server
Real the how to get help section
Go up another 20
What do you get?
I just want you to add 20 to 80
That's all
Yes
100 dB is 20 dB more than 80 dB
So 100 dB is 10x louder than 80 dB
And 80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB
So how much louder is 100 dB than 60 dB?
I mean like how 80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB
I'm looking for "100 dB is (something)x louder than 60 dB"
No
We know 80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB
And 100 dB is 10x louder than 80 dB
No
No
100 dB is 10x louder than 80 dB
80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB
If Jim was 10x faster than John, and John was 10x faster than Jake, how much faster is Jim than Jake?
No
Let's say Jake could go 1 m/s
If John is 10x faster, how fast could he go?
Yes
But how fast in m/s
Yeah
So how fast does he go in m/s
I gotta go, I'll be back in like 10 min
I'm back
If John runs at 10 m/s, and Jim is 10x faster, how fast does Jim run?
So if Jake runs at 1 m/s, how much faster is Jim?
I'm looking for (something)x faster
Jim runs at 100 m/s and Jake runs at 1 m/s, so how much faster is Jim
Yep
In short, if A is 10x B, and B is 10x C, then A is 100x C
So if 100 dB is 10x louder than 80 dB, and 80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB, how much louder is 100 dB than 60 dB?
100 dB is 1000 times louder than 60 dB?
No
Decibels aren't linear so that doesn't work
Remember, if A is 10x B and B is 10x C, then A is 100x C
So if 100 dB is 10x louder than 80 dB, and 80 dB is 10x louder than 60 dB, how much louder is 100 dB than 60 dB?
Yes
100 dB is 100x louder than 60 dB
Yes
No
Decibels aren't linear
Let's go another 20 dB
120 dB is 10x louder than 100 dB
And 100 dB is 100x louder than 60 dB
So how much louder is 120 dB than 60 dB?
What's the answer in terms of "120 dB is (something)x louder than 60 dB"
Yes
That's your final answer

no, represent their ages algebraically
for example J for jerones age, K for keenan's age and L for Leitha's age
yeah
so if we have 2 equations with 2 unknowns we can solve it easily
we need to make sure K is one of the unknowns
if we get J in terms of L using the 2nd formula
we'd get J = 19 - L
so then (19-L) + K = 18
and K + L = 21
do you know how to go from here?
do i solve same as how i solve other systems?
yes

I wonder whether it is possible to define a graphical model that would find optimal parameters of y=ax+b+eps with an estimation of paramaters a, b, eps, their mu and sigma. The input is set of (mu_n, sigma_n) normal distributions. Normally when we have just set of x_n points it is relatively easy to estimate a, b, eps with bayesian network and for example NUTS solver. Can we however estimate those parameters when x_i isn't determined exactly but is somewhere in a normal distribution (mu_i, sigma_i)? I don't want to do monte carlo with selection of x_n from (mu_n, sigma_n). Can I construct a more general graphical network to solve this task?

i tried inputting f(16) to f(2x+1) but i didnt get anything
or should i enter 16 into x
where the first function is
What do you mean you didn't get anything?
i put it in and then said 2x+1=16
and then 2x=15 which is just 7.5
but i assumed thats not what its asking
Sounds good to me
Well, that's not the answer to the question but it is the correct first step
Now you know in order for 2x + 1 = 16, x must be equal to 7.5
How does that help you find f(16) ?
u have to use 4x^2+4x and 7.5 is x?
Right
Because if you take
Take $f(2x+1) = 4x^2 + 4x$, and substitute x=7.5, you get
$f(16) = 4(7.5)^2 + 4(7.5)$

this a really simple problem\
but I don't know how to do it
what would you do
with teh 2theta
right now I'm at cos2theta = 1/2
Cos 60 degree is 1/2 so 2 theta = 60 theta = 30
Yeah u can have multiple answers cuz it's a periodic function.. what's the issue?
I was just confused what the 2theta
was supposed to mean
what if the problem was like this]
I simplified it down
to
when is cos theta 1/root 2?
|cos 1/2 theta| = rad2 / 2
Just look for values of theta which give 1/root 2 or -1/root 2
anyway for the posititive 1/root 2 i got 45 and 315
And look for -ve 1/root 2 and all of those are ur answes
i got
135 and 225
so my answers are 45,315,135, and 225
how would you solve this

Are you old enough to use discord ?? No offense
yes
@astral crescent how old are you?
13
can we please not joke about the difficulty level of this worksheet
Bear the age limit is 13 for a reason
There can be some bad stuff sometimes
Just ask your teacher
anyway this seems to be about place value and translating numbers between english and numerals
3 tens is 30
3 tenths is 0.03 right
3 tenths is 0.3
Bear it would be a bit tedious to write out all the answers
Just use this to solve the questions
So for example
If it asks you to find the place value of some digit
so for example let’s use
5.0379
It asks you to find the value of 3
The first digit is Obed
Ones
The second one after the dots is tenths
Third one is hundredths
Fourth one is thousands
And etc
and you should not do that anyway
Why
I get he’s undersheriff, but just give the man the answer
you should not ask for answers
underage*
and you should not give answers
no, it is not
well
it is to help people
but it is not to just give answers
there is a difference between those
yall cant help i just put radum asurs

A coin is tossed then a Dice is rolled, then another coin is tossed and another dice is rolled. One possible outcome is H,5,T,1
In how many of the sequences do the 2 dice show the same number ?
Could you pleasse help me
have you made any progress thus far?
i made a progress of knowwing there are 144 diffrent prmutations
yep
well, a similar principle can be used to count the sequences where the dice values match
