so in the diagram, you are given 2 points that line p runs through right
Yes
Hmmm
Well yes
that means that the point is the y intercept right
since it intercepts with the y axis
I mean yeah
so in the equation y=mx+b
where b is the y intercept
do you see how you can use that point to fill out b
Wait, I just noticed this was a graph💀
Okay so
We are going to give y a number
Right
It's either 0 or 2?
Assuming it's 2 tho
Ye
Yes
Wouldn't that be y = m6+4
Yeah
Oh
does that make sense
Omg
rich becomes 2=6m right
yess
so you know m and b in the equation y=mx+b
so you just have to replace m and b
with 1/3 and 2
so the final function becomes y=1/3x+2
That's like the answer?
no, the general form of a line has both y and x
ye
so basically to sum up, because the y intercept was given, you can find b in the equation y=mx+b, and you can plug in a second point to find m
Yeah
I understand well now
Thank you
Anyways there is one more
- Express the deviation of the line p from the 15th problem from the coordinate axis x with a relation
@timid silo
Oof
@tacit spade since we are here, can I get help for one more question
I need to get the area of the rectangle
So here is what I think
a = ?
b = 50
a = b/sin(ß)
a = 50/sin(50°)
a = 70,71
c² = a²+b²
c = 86.60
S = a•b
S = 2598.08
but you can solve this using sine law
where a/sin A = b/sin B
a/sin 100 = 50/sin50
a = 70.71 x 0.9848
damn so my calculation was wrong?
couldnt this work?
so a=69.635, 69.635 x 30 = 2089 around
if i did my calculations correctly
<@&286206848099549185> can you check my work
well technically your method is correct, but mine should be too... or not
you cannot use the pythagorean theorem
it's not a right triangle
it's a 50:30:100 degree triangle
<@&286206848099549185> hopefully someone may help check
okay but we know that one side is 50 and now that we found out that the other one is 70,71 wouldnt it be possible to use pythagorean theorem?
from what did you get 0,9848
since we are here
i need more help

Linear Algebra
Hey guys, my linear is pretty rusty and I'm a little confused:
I have a symmetric bilinear form, which I've converted into a matrix;
Now, I've supposedly found a base where the matrix is diagonalized:
The base being the rows of the left-hand matrix, and the diagonalized matrix being the result at the end.
My friend has reached a different result.
Does this make sense? Or can both of us be right?
how did you find the eigenvectors?
hold on, no eigenvectors, let me check
"Matrix congruence" is what I used
did your friend get the same values on the diagonal?
Nu uh
Diag(1, 0.25, -0.25) is what they got
I thought a given matrix only has a single diagonal form (well not for, the values can be in different order), then again intuitively this feels wrong
say you multiply by diag(2, 1, 1)
Yeah?
left and right multiply your result by diag(2, 1, 1)
it should result in a congruent matrix
I'm not sure I follow
I'm not looking for a congruent matrix, the matrix in the middle of the equation and the resulting matrix are congruent already
I simply don't know if the rows of the matrix on the left of the equation are indeed the base I'm looking for
I don't think it's possible we got different results, but I don't really know
but if you left multiply by a matrix and right multiply by the transpose, you get a new matrix which is congruent to the original matrix right?
Seems so, yeah
As in, I've found a a matrix M which indeed fulfills:
M^t * A * M = diag(4,1,-1/4)
Oh and Det(M) != 0
yeah, invertible
Yeah that
So let's do it again with diag(2, 1, 1)
that should get another matrix congruent to the original matrix right?
As in, M = diag(2,1,1)?
Okay this might be easier, instead of M, use 2M now
see what result you get
yeah, but now you have different numbers
Oh
so it is possible to get different numbers
Yeah but like, the ratios are the same
now take M*diag(2, 1, 1)
Like M * diag(2,1,1) * A * (M * diag(2,1,1))^t?
I'm just not sure what you mean by this, basically
It's what I wrote just now, isn't it?
(M * diag(2,1,1))^t * A * M * diag(2,1,1)?
thought you put the M on the right side
Yeah you do, it doesn't erally matter though
This is the convention, I just defined M to be (what is traditionally) M^t
I swapped the two's roles, basically.
Uh, it's a little hard to do with a calculator
Could you just tell me if it's possible that we got different results?
We were simply supposed to find a base for A to be diagonal in, there are (quite evidently, as you've just shown me) multiple bases - it's just that the ratios between our two matrices aren't the same. That's the weird part
As in Diag(4,1,-0.25) and Diag(1,0.25,-0.25). The value in the middle on the first matrix is "-4 times bigger" than the last value. His isn't though
imagine scaling one of the basis vectors
Like this??
Very cool
I apologize, my intuition on the subject matter might as well be nonexistent
yeah, i'm just giving concrete calculations to give some examples
So essentially, there are many different forms and bases in order to diagonalize* some matrices?
Actually one can prove something regarding the forms
It's known as Sylvester's Law of Inertia
but I think it would be more educational to try to discover it yourself
Can you make it into the identity matrix? (Is A congruent to the identity matrix?)
If not, how close can you get?
I probably could, but I'm afraid I've already spent 3 hours on this silly exercise
Wouldn't you reckon that this is something I'll encounter during the course?
Within the context of subspaces even
Oh, and the diagonalized matrix of eigenvalues is specifically for Q^-1 * A * Q
I see now.
Which is why there's only a single "variant" of an eigenvalue matrix, but many (infinite?) forms of those M matrices.
That makes a lot of sense in all honesty
I appreciate the help
Seems like I've lost you
Sorry for any language barrier frustrations, have a nice day 🙂

I've tried so many different ways to get x, but i genuinely don't understand how to do this question.
i'd assume you use the property
where if a quadrilateral is inside a circle
the opposite angles of the quadrilateral are supplementary
so i think how you'd go about doing that is
thats what i thought too
basically, angle ABF is 180-x right
but when i started inputting the values nothin made sense
yeah
then you can figure out the value of angle AFB right
in terms of x
since angle baf is 54, angle abf is 180-x
angle afb is 180-54-180+x
since it's 180 - (54) - (180-x)
that makes sense
so this simplifies to x-54 right
yeah
using vertical angles
you can know angle DFE right
since vertical angles are congruent
cant we say that x = 54?
but the angle isn't 0
ohh true
but since we know the value of angle AFB
using vertical angle definition angle DFE is congruent and also x-54
yeah
so then you can know the value of angle FDE
which is 180 - (x-54)-(32)
since a triangle adds up to 180
yeah
and angle FDE is 202-x then right
so we can figure out angle FDC
since FDC and FDE form a line
so FDC is 180 - (FDE)
which is 180 - ( 202 -x )
which simplifies to x-22
and coming back to
this
x-22 and x are opposite angles of a quadrilateral in a circle
meaning they add up to 180
so x-22+x=180
2x=202
x=101
oh my god
thanks a ton
that makes so much sense but i just doubt i would ever think of that in an exam
sometimes just playing around with angles work
let me show you what i done
tbh there was a more efficient way to do this i realized half way
you're going to be shocked
but even if ways are slightly inefficient
just playing around with numbers and angles sometimes work
i mean if you get the same answer, its fien with me tbh
sorry this might be easier to look at
i got it wrong because i was assuming what an angle would be
yeah the 90 degrees is off
yh it's better never to assume an angle
unless you are extra extra extra extra desperate
i assumed that because i can form 2 semi-circles with a line (that i drew, meaning i doubt its through the diameter) both angle suspended from that would be 90 degrees
which is where i made the BIG mistake
ah i see
i didnt even think of making an equation
a method that seems to work for me and most people is filling out blank angles using all the knowledge you have
you can label all the angles and write down all the relations you can think of between them
it often helps you come up with equations and things like that
yh exactly
anyways idk when your exam is but gl :)

What is the inverse function of ln(3x) ?
$e^{\ln(x)} = x$
VulcanOne
VulcanOne
So when you want to find the inverse of y = ln(3x)
You do the usual
Replace x with y
$x=\ln(3y)$
VulcanOne
hmmmmmmmm
You then take $e^{x} = e^{\ln(3y)}$
VulcanOne
b) f(x) = e^3x ; h(x) = ln = (3x)
f^-1 (x) = 1/3 ln (x)
so the term h(x) is not the inverse function of f(x). It would be right if f(x) = ?what?
This is the task
this is right?
Yep
hm
You use this trick when you want to cancel out the natural log
Because this works

now... topic: Definition of the derivatives
task: determine f´(0), f´(2) and f´(3)
f´(0) means the x value = 0
and there should be no slope there
but the solution says 2
I'd try deriving the equation of the graph by assuming that it's a parabola
Why?
You can still draw the tangent line to the graph at x = 0
Yes f'(x) is the slope of the tangent line to the graph at the point x = 0
OOOOOOOOHh
so if I drew the tangent line from x=0
it would reach y=2, x=1
2/1 = 2
Yeah but just for the safety I'd not do such task only visually
yeah
makes sense 😄
thanks!

Hi can someone tell me where my teacher gets - √ 2 from?
Well square rooting both sides, would give you |x| less than equals sqrt(2)
That gives x belongs to [- sqrt(2), sqrt(2)]
I dont see where the - sqrt(2) is coming from
do you know the graph of abs(x)
draw that, and then draw y= sqrt 2
then see for which x, the inequality is satisfied
i understand more clearly now but in which cases does this apply?
im guessing that its with symmetrical graphs, but when can I know it is symmetrical and isnt then
What may make it become more apparent, would be to graph 2 - x^2, find where it intercepts the x-axis, and consider where the graph is >=0
Drawing graphs to check for inequalities? Always as long as you can draw it
It doesnt have to be symmetrical
For inequalities tho, for stuff like this, drawing graphs would take too much time, google wave curve algorithm, there should be videos of that on yt
no i mean in which cases are both the zeros of the function the same like -x and x
What
here -sqrt(2) and sqrt(2)
sqrt(2) and - sqrt(2) are not the same
But i think what youre asking about refers to even functions

Im doing numerical integration with simpson's rule, and the order of the error should be 4 (the slope of ln|error| against N, the number of intervals). However, for some functions, the slope is smaller (around 3.4), could anyone help explain why?
All i can see is that the function is relatively flat in that interval
Here's the plot when integrating one function
And this is for the "flatter" function
intuitively I would say that for flatter functions getting more intervals doesn't change the error as much because you can't approximate the function that much better. extreme cases would be constant functions I guess
also maybe you are just generally running into accuracy issues?

how to calculate the force to compress an object to a given dimension<
thats physics innit?
what type of material do you have
I want to do it for any material
the formula depends on the type of material, temperature and state of matter
shouldn't you have one from where ever the task is from
I don't think its that simple to have a universal one
for gasses you can use compression-density formula
ok let's say i have a wooden cube with a density of 70 cm3
okay thats insane
basically you need to look up what pressure what material needs to compress by 10 or 100 percent, and wood has a ton of different ones
whats your actual task?
even worse, wood has a crushing strenght limit, meaning at some point it will splinter
whats the actual task you have to doi
i'm just asking im been interested with pressure machines
why are you asking in a math discord though
you apply a pressure on the material which formula is the force divided by the surface where the force is applied

say u have f(x)
if u find f(kx)
will it have same minimum value as before
my lect says it does
but it doesnt look like it
cuz clearly the x coordinate will be divided by k
so surely the minimum value cant be the same
I think it depends on the actual function
but is it always the same
it isnt right?
The function f(x) = ax^2 preserves its critical value for all a in reals
But ax^2 + ax for example doesn't
I think critical points would have the same x-value but not necessarily the same y

translation : “divide the following polynomials”
Si
idrk spanish much but i understand
Isn’t ur problem in Spanish?
yea but like my parents put me into a spanish school (cause i moved to spain) and i dont understand anything thats why i need help ;-; long story it sucks
but yes like that i have a problem doing long division with it cause it has 3 terms i think its called- like its “2x2^ + x + 4” instead of “2x + 3”
okay okay
how do we do that ;-;
So if we had something like 56x/4, how would we set it up in a long division problem
Or just refer to this as an example
This video tutorial explains how to perform long division of polynomials with remainder and with missing terms. It's explains how to do long division easily and it provides the step by step process to get it done. Basically, there are 3 steps that you have to repeat. 1. Divide 2. Multiply 3.

Is there another way to solve this without graphing?
"Find the equation of the circle that touches the two axes and touches the line y=6"
graphing would help but you can consider the general form of the circle equation
if it touches the line at y = 6 that means it has a radius of 3
idrk proof wise since some countries have it different
I assume by "touches" it means touches exactly once without intercepting, otherwise you could just make a circle about the origin with radius >= 6
btw it said it touches both axies too
Yeah that's the inteded meaning
meaning its not at the origin
you can have 2 cases
one where its origin is in the upper right quadrant and one where its in the upper left one
at exactly (3, 3) and (-3, 3)
since you said it is touching both axis
I feel like this relies on graphing
visualisation is basically your way of intuition but you can prove it without a graoh
graph
You imagined the line y=6 and you got
2r = 6 => r = 3
And then the rest is simple
that's the part that I want to know if there's another way to do it
you can deduce from.the fact tbat its touching the line ar y = 6 that the function's maximum is 6
and since its tangent minimum is 0
then work with that
and since its a circle equation you know the distance between the maximum and minimum is 2r so you get r = 3
then as u said ez
This captured my intuition well
Btw
How would we do it if it gave any line instead of y=6 ?
wdym any line
How do we solve it in the general case
you deduce its maximum value is the y value of the line
same goes for minimum
since y value of OX = 0
You can't use that if it gave the line x-y=2
Because then which y value do you choose?
y=1x-2
i dont think you have a choice but to draw it out to help visualise there
intuitiokn has to come from graph
Yeah I know i'm just kidding
I'll write the question
Then do the drawing with 2 circles and the line
And then first line of text is 2r = 6
look man i kinda gtg

so I was wondering do 2 mutually exclusive events always have to equal 1
I had a question here
and I know 1-0.43 =0.57 is one of the solutions
right
but i'm not sure why that's the case
it's x+0.57
no
they can sum to 1, but they do not have to sum to 1
oh ok
But then why in this case do I do 1-0.43
I thought P(A)+P(A') =1
and I use that formula
Why do I use b here?
that's true, because A U A' is the whole set, which has probability 1
But just because A and B are mutually exclusive does not mean that B = A'
since P(B') = .43, the P(B) = .57 by the property you gave
so P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B)
because they are mutually exclusive.
Ohhhh ok
ty that actually makes sense to me now
That's a lot simpler than I thought
tyty I appreciate the help

first picture is the question, second picture is my work, third picture is the answer key
I know my work is hard to read but basically what I did was set u=e^x whilst in the answer key its u=1+e^x
why this and not that?
(u-substitution)
Stephen
Those two aren’t equal if the != wasn’t clear
wait so I just made an algebra mistake?
Yea, from that step yes, I didn’t look into the rest of ur work
oh fuck I'm an idiot I split it up the denominator as if it was the numerator lmaoo
man fuck finals week
well, thanks
let me see if this fixes the problem
Np, I think u coulda done that u = e^x sub

Yea u coulda used u = e^x but u would have to use another sub after that
Using u = e^x + 1, u skip that step
do you have any advice for how to pick the most efficient u
Hmm
Good question
Honestly it just comes with experience, lots of practice with integration techniques and such. I’ve just searched on google and saw a video (I haven’t watched) but I’ll link because it looks promising. Additionally, I’ve also seen something that says u-sub is just chain rule in reverse, so if you’re able to think about it like that, that might be helpful. But overall I’d just recommend practice with different types of problems, and when practicing, try different u-sub’s in the same problem to see if they work well, u may notice some trends which may help u to determine the most efficient paths. Here’s the link: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=evdYUQnHrBo

can someone explain to me why it's important to take care of the fact that the cos function will oscillate between positive and negative?
so my lecturer has decided to put a modulus around the expression
and we're considering the limit as it approaches 0
and im confused because if the h term is tending towards 0 then the whole function would tend to 0?
so why would it matter if it oscillates between +/- as it gets close to 0

The complex number 𝑢 is given by the following equality: 𝑢 = 16𝑖. Solve the equation 𝑧⁴ = 𝑢, and represent its solutions in a complex number plane.
i've got r, which is 16
but i dont know how to get 𝛉
and i dont know how to get the - angles inside cos and sin
Imagine instead of 16i, you're just looking for z^4=i
Do you know how to write i as a complex exponential?
The complex number $i$ is defined as the square root of $-1$. It can be written as a complex exponential using Euler's formula, which states that for any real number $x$:
$$e^{ix} = \cos(x) + i \sin(x)$$
Therefore, we can write $i$ as a complex exponential by setting $x = \frac{\pi}{2}$:
$$i = e^{i \frac{\pi}{2}} = \cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) + i \sin\left(\frac{\pi}{2}\right) = 0 + i 1 = i$$
So $i$ can be written as a complex exponential as $e^{i \frac{\pi}{2}}$. Note that this representation of $i$ as a complex exponential is only one possible representation; there are many other ways to write $i$ using complex exponentials.
dgh
@tardy epoch This is what ChatGPT gave me.
Is it right?
In the complex plane, the complex number $i$ is represented by a point on the vertical axis, above the origin. This means that $i$ is pointing directly upwards on the complex plane. To find the angle of the complex number $u = 16i$, we can use the fact that $i$ is pointing upwards on the complex plane. The angle of $u$ is then simply the angle that $u$ makes with the positive real axis, which in this case is $\frac{\pi}{2}$ radians or $90^\circ$.
dgh
How do we get the - angles, or why do we write it like that?
Lol don't ask an AI to do your homework
.
from what i've seen chatgpt is pretty good at homework as long as the user has enough awareness to extract the useful and correct parts of it
If you understand it, then go for it. I'm not reading all that
I've asked it quite a few questions about math. Sometimes it's surprisingly accurate, and sometimes it's complete nonsense
ye it's hit and miss and you have to figure out when it's missing lol
I did, but this one is more simpler #help-10 message
Can someone explain this?
I'm still not reading all that nonsense
Yeah I understood that the first time
Do you recognize that 9pi/8 for example is coterminal to -7pi/8
in the case of z_3 there
Hmm, I know that in the polar form of a complex number, the angle 𝛉 can be any value between -π and π.
But I've lost memory of the reason why we prefer the negative angle.
Is it because we subtract 2π?
Yes, if you add or subtract 2pi, you get a coterminal angle
I see!
As for why we prefer angles between -pi and pi, I think it's mostly convention, It plays nicely with the arctan function
So if we have z^4, we want two plus angles, and two minus angles?
i.e. distributing it evenly?
That will generally be true for even exponents, yes
but just make sure they're on (-pi, pi]
you don't really need to memorize a rule like this
Is this true?
"if we used an angle outside of the range -π to π, the arctan function might not return a value that is consistent with the angle of the complex number in the complex plane. For example, if we used the angle 5π/4 to represent the complex number -1 + i, the arctan function would return a different value:
angle = atan(imaginary part / real part) = atan(1 / -1) = 3π/4
This result is not consistent with the angle of the complex number in the complex plane, because it is not between -π and π."
It should say -5pi/4, not 5pi/4
-5pi/4 and 3pi/4 are coterminal but -5pi/4 is not in the interval (-pi,pi]
I see, I have a exam in 3 hours, so I'm cramming lol
So for coterminal angles we only consider the angles in the range (-π, π]
for complex numbers, you should typically only express them by angles in that range
Ok ok
but yeah I think that's basically what you meant
Another thing, on the notation ( and ]
The notation (-π, π) is often used to indicate the range of values that are not included in the range of coterminal angles, because coterminal angles are defined as angles that differ by a multiple of 2π and that are within the range (-π, π]. In other words, coterminal angles are not in the range (-π, π).
This is wrong right? Because π is a coterminal of -π
Oh nvm, it's not lmao
no you're right, pi and -pi are coterminal
But why did it say "In other words, coterminal angles are not in the range (-π, π)."
was this from the ai?
Yea
that's why
Okay lol
it is not really a reliable source
i think it means something
if x, y are coterminal and in the range (-pi, pi), then x=y
i.e. x cannot be different from y
although it's not very clearly stated
isn't this also true for (-pi, pi] ?
yes, it is also true for that
btw, how do i best memorize the trig values up to π/2?
for cos, sin, and tan
i don't have the best memory of that
i remember there was a triangle you could look at
Btw, if you needed a reason not to use chat GPT for math help, here's one
x^4 = x?
yeah - this is why we don't typically let chatgpt posts here
still more efficient to type out ourselves
and ,w for definitions
,w involution
,w involution function
well that didn't work out
I've never seen someone with both the "active" role and the newbie leaf

Trying to solve this initial value problem:
[
x^2y'' -xy' +2y = 0 \quad y(1) = 5 \quad y'(1) = -1
]
♡LexQa♡
i get
[
y = x(5\cos(\ln(x)) - 6\sin(\ln(x))
]
but i am not sure \thonk
♡LexQa♡
oh someone actually came and explained it
was it before or after approximately 8 hours ago
it was pretty interesting
because i also saw some stuff there
yes, he posted it immediately after i slept 

this is one of those DEs which have a name
which im forgetting
but iirc you can guess a power of x
yeah it was with euler's equations
i am not good with odes and pdes okay 😵💫
you cn always check it
,w r(r-1) - r + 2 = 0
i actually inputted that into the system, and it turned to be wrong, and i am just clueless now 




okay...just because you can see through me doesn't mean you can get to expose me like that 😔

oh yeah snow, i actually have another GF question
it is more of...a question about someone's else explanation 
what the hell does this sign mean

i hear that’s bad

omg im having the biggest brain fart i forgot how to latex
just basically saying that
[ma = \delta \to m\dv[2]{x}{t}]
[\to m\dv[2]{G}{t} = \delta ]
and then
♡LexQa♡

then we defined
[ G = {\color{cyan} \int}\mathscr{G} ={\color{cyan} \int} \frac{1}{m s^2}]

i am pretty sure this is called...a Bromwich integral?

Find the variance of 15,16,17....45?
By using consecutive formula that is (n^2 - 1)/12
I can't get the answer
Is there something i am missing
can we see the problem exactly as stated
49th question
and what value are you using for n?
I am getting first 14 number variance and then first 45 and then subtracting them
Oh
,calc ((45-15+1)^2 - 1)/12
Result:
80
Last term - first term
Always?
Or is it number of terms
we suffer
the general formula for variance is mean square minus square mean, to put it in a way that isn't symbol soup

what's the largest possible k where 12^k divides 2022!? need help, can't seem to find a way to use legendre or anything.
Prime factorisation of 2022 perhaps?
Oh, there's no need though
Cuz 2022 isn't divisible by 4
How'd it be divisible by 12 anyways?
2022!
its just legendre
how do you apply cause legendre only works on prime?
realise that there will be more factors of 2 in 2022! than 3
wait that might not be needed 
then you can work out like
the first inequality might not be true tho
dont want to use my brain to figure it out rn 
legendre
so a is 2014.
what
and b is 1006.
,w sum k=1 to 20 floor(2022/2^k)
,w sum k=1 to 20 floor(2022/3^k)
guess so

the one with the factor with lowest exponent divided 2022! ?
ohhhh, how do you know it don't divide?

Hello everybody. I am currently stuck on this integration problem. Namely I am given two points Pinflection(2,2) and Porigin(0,0) and a tangent line of a cubic function at x=2.
I have tried to integrate my function y=-3x+8 (as it should be my second derivative of my main function) and then plug in my two points twice to find the parameters c and d that I receive from integrating. However, I do not get the same result as the solutions.

shouldn't that give a zero anyway?
no

you cant really integrate implicit functions like youre used to with explicit functions
