Makes sense right ?
your teacher told you "you MUST only solve THE LEFT SIDE, and ONLY THE LEFT SIDE, and NOT THE RIGHT SIDE"?
Ill@try
Do this
+yea yea orry bro
i think i got it
Both works i mean have to solve one side only to get the answer of the other side
i got cos xsec X
meant to ask you not to call me bro
so
im getting
sec X + tan X
we can write cos x as
90 - xec
and then there is some minus law
i gorgot it
That is correct
These r the ones to use
After
Now multiply (1 + sinx) to numerator and denominator
which grade are u bro
10
lemme open mine 1 second
Eerm them we have to chnage the left one too ryt ?
Im sorry i dont get ypu
$\frac{1 - sinx}{cosx}*\frac{1+sinx}{1+sinx}$
ColdTee
$\frac{1+sinx}{1+sinx} = 1$
Ohh
ColdTee
Np
Well then i have a question
Ask
Yeah im just curious to know
Im not sure what you mean to say
This is what you had to prove right
damn that is confusing
Yes, this is what you did right
bro write it down is lhs = rhs form
Is this how u do it when u need the inverse answer
Like you mean a general formula or sth
Yeah

What step are you on?
- I don't know where to begin
- I have begun but got stuck midway
- I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
- I got an answer and would like my work checked
- I have a question about someone else's worked solution
- None of the above
Uh Aight so there’s a couple different methods we could use
mhm
what have you tried
We could use quadratic formula, completing the square
ok
no wait
my equation started like this
P = -2x^2 + 20x - 42
P = 6
6 = -2x^2 + 20x - 42
48 = -2x^2 + 20x
Ok yea so just move the 48 over for now
bruh what
isnt there a simplier way
to continue moving everything
until i end with x
Not sure what u mean
We could do completing the square or quadratic formula, but with both methods, we should move all terms to one side before proceeding
Nice, now which one of the methods would u like to proceed with
ok just factor it
Factoring, sure
So first, we wanna get a coefficient of “1” on the x^2 term, can u do that?
Nono don’t factor yet
Just get our x^2 term to have a coefficient of 1
How can we do so
Good, and what do we get now
Stephen
yeah
-10x
Now factor
Yep
ok
=0
Bruh
LOL
Why didn’t u say that at first
!
So now u want to find vertex from this?
Right, now we need to get it into vertex form
wait
look
P = -2x^2 + 20x - 42
this was my original equation
(x,p)
p is 6
so i plug in p for 6
so whats x
Well we alrdy solved that
Stephen
What’s x?
Also, could u share a pic/ss of the original problem that’s asking for the vertex
Tag me if u come back
um
but thats two x intercepst
i literally just need one x
at what number will be 6
im just gonna reask my questio because im confused ill make a new channel lol

while x=0 I need to examine the differentiability
and continuity as well
I don't if that term is the right one
What have you tried?
I do not know how to approach this type of question
Do you need to show continuity only at x= 0 or at the full domain?
OK, then note that -1 =< sin x =< 1
noted
Do you know how to show continuity then?
nope
Calculate the lim as x goes to 0
Using this
And apply sandwich theorem
I do not understand something
in this part
x cannot be 0
doesn't that mean lim x->0 is null
No
You can go infinitly close to 0 with the upper function
So you need to know the limit of x^2*sin(1/x)
so that means in this point f(x) isn't continuiable
Why?
in the second rule "The function must be defined at this point"
I think you mean f' right
Sorry, can we see the lower half of the piecewise function?
And the hole is filled in by f(0)= 0
Yes
Is it also asking for turning point
Can you follow this approach now?
nope
can you show me how I can do it
-1 =< sin x =< 1
-x^2 =< x^2*sin x =< x^2
You can calculate the lim of -x^2 and x^2 with ez- both are 0
yes
So following this the original lim needs to be 0, too

WTS: $sup(A \cup B) = max(supA,supB)$
clip
Kind of stuck here, I have that for any $a \in A$ it follows that $a \leq sup(A)$ and that for any $b \in B$ it follows that $b \leq sup(B)$
clip
From this it follows that any $a \in A \cup B$ will have that $a \leq max(supA,supB)$ and the same thing for b, ($b \in A \cup B$ will have that $b \leq max(supA,supB)$)
clip
Therefore $sup(A \cup B) \leq max(supA,supB)$
clip
I dont know how to go about showing equality here though
Im thinking I should just show that the max is the least upper bound in this scenario and thus force them to be equal
So do something like For any $\epsilon > 0,\ max(supA,supB)-\epsilon \leq sup(A \cup B)$ and then prove the two cases, one being supA larger sup B and the other being vice versa?
clip
This would make the max the supremum here and imply that sup(A union B) = max(supA,supB), ???

@unique kettle Has your question been resolved?

I've encountered this before
Slow replies, but I'll look this over, @unique kettle (if you're still around)
Yes I am thanks
Step 1 : show that sup(A U B) >= max(sup A, sup B) (easy)
Step 2 : show that some real number x is below sup(A U B) if and only if it is below sup A or sup B
From step 2 you can deduce that sup(A U B) <= max(sup A, sup B)
@unique kettle
I already showed that, would not just then showing that max(…) is the l.u.b. be enough
Well, if you have sup(A U B) <= max(sup A, sup B) and sup(A U B) => max(sup A, sup B) then what's the problem ?
Also, I'm not english native, plz don't use acronyms like l.u.b. 🙂
oh ok lowest upper bound
Sorry least upper bound
Yep
You proved that sup(A U B) <= max(sup A, sup B) right ?
Yes
Ok. You know that sup A <= sup(A U B) right ?
Yeahsame with supB
Yeah I know that works I am just wondering if the way I did it works because I already have that written down and I don’t see why it wouldn’t
Send what you write
Assuming it's in English or in a language I understand :x
.
I’m not at home right now but it’s along the lines of what that says
hmm
you only have max(sup A, sup B) <= sup(A U B) with that
not max(sup A, sup B) >= sup(A U B)
May I write it my way ?
But that’s with the implication that max is an upper bound and doing the makes it the least upper bound which implies that they are equal right?
Sure
Ok, here I go
- You know that $sup A \le sup A\cup B$ and $sup B\le sup A\cup B$. From that, you know directly that $max(sup A, sup B)\le sup A\cup B$\\
- Let $x\in \bR$. $x< sup A\cup B \Rightarrow \exists a\in A\cup B$ such that $a>x \Rightarrow$ we have either $x\le sup A$ or $x\le sup B$. Therefore, $max(sup A, sup B)$ is an upper bound of all these $x$'s. Therefore, it is higher than their lowest upper bound. In other words :
$$max(sup A, sup B)\ge sup A\cup B$$
Finally, by antisymmetry, we know that $max(sup A, sup B) = sup A\cup B$
Silfer
Ok I understand, would you mind answering a more generalized question that i have
ok go ahead
Ok so if you know some supT is an upper bound for supS then supT>=supS
You mean supT is an upper bound for S I guess ? But yes
So if you were to show that supT is the least upper bound for supS is it still supT>=supS or is it now supT=supS
Yes that
Well, you would need to prove that supT = supS because supS is S's lowest upper bound by definition
Ok thanks for the help

@worthy wagon
All the real numbers of an interval?
isn't that the interval itself?
No. Thats incorrect. I just tried it
to my understanding, I thought the complement of an interval B over R would be the set of all other numbers in R not in the interval B
so the complement of (2,∞) would be (-∞,2] to my understanding, no?
No. Thats incorrect. I just tried it
what exactly did you try
All i tried so far is what he told me. I tried to use the interval itself but it didint work
oh whoops you misunderstood me, I apologise
ofc that won't work
here, I was attempting to clarify that you thought the complement of the interval is "All the real numbers of an interval?", which I was asking you to confirm you thought the complement of an interval was itself
apologies for any confusion
thats alright
well, regardless
it appears your problem is that you do not know what the complement of an interval is.
correct?
Yes
excellent
so, the complement of a closed interval over a space, is, effectively, everything outside that interval
so let's say you have the interval (1,2] on R.
your interval is all numbers greater than 1 up to and including 2
this means your complement is all numbers less than 1, including 1, and all numbers greater than 2, not including 2
there is no overlap between intervals, but together they span all of R, all real numbers
@high lily is this correct?
seems alright
hooray! that was a wild guess :P (based off what other complements I know are)
anyways, @worthy wagon do you think, with this explanation of what a complement is, you can complete your problem?
I think soooooo
I gtg shower, brb
I need help with another one
<@&286206848099549185>
are you not able to solve it the same way as the last one? @worthy wagon
I think its confusing me because theres no infinity
sounds familer
so for instance
(1,2]U(3,8]
is the set of numbers greater than but not equal to 1, but less than or equal to 2, as well. as the numbers grater than but not equal to 3, but less than or equal to 8
it's just a way of merging two intervals
does this help solve this problem? @worthy wagon
im still having trouble
with which part, specifically?
How i'm able to transform that interval
I still cant get this
yes
so your interval, initially, is all the numbers greater than but not equal to 1, up to and including 6
so your complement is all other real numbers.
that means, your complement holds all numbers 1 and less, and all numbers greater than but not equal to 6.
together, they combine without overlap to cover all real numbers.
with me so far?
So its basically the opposite?
I guess, as much as there is such a thing as an opposite interval
you can't really have an interval full of anti-numbers that combined with this cancel each other out
the complement is close enough, as it is everything but the interval
well, anyways
that means, your complement holds all numbers 1 and less, and all numbers greater than but not equal to 6.
how would you turn these words into an interval of your own?
1 >x>6?
well, ok, let's break it down farther (since that is very wrong, though surprisingly close)
let's do half of this interval at a time
all numbers 1 and less
how would you turn this into an interval?
1<x?
including 1 (1 and less)
I don't know how to do that on my keyboard
≤ ≥
for me it's hold the option key
no worries, you can use <= or >= if you want instead
or, even better
use interval notation
that's the next step anyways
what is this in interval notation?
1≤x?
that's x is all numbers greater than or equal to 1
you want all numbers 1 and less
use the form they want on the computer, ie (2,6] or [-3,∞), it'll make things easier later
[-1,0)
that would be all numbers greater than or equal to -1, but less than 0 (not including 0)
(-1,0)
do you understand how this notation works?
This is confusing me
I'm very sorry :/
well ok let's start from the top
you have the interval (1,6]
you need its complement.
tell me, what is interval such that all numbers before (1,6] are contained in it?
the answer is (-∞,1]
(-∞,1] contains all numbers less than or equal to 1
Oh, because the infinty contains all the previous numbers
after that, the numbers belong to (1,6], or are bigger than those in (1,6]
yes, an infinity encompasses everything when set as the edge (x<∞ really means x is anything)
well anyways, so we know
well, that's just half the answer
(-∞,1] is all the numbers BEFORE the interval (1,6]
what about after?
hmm
the interval (1,6] stops at the number 6
6 is in that interval.
which means all numbers AFTER the interval (1,6] is all numbers greater but not equal to 6
do you think you know what those numbers are?
[6,infinity)?
almost
[ is inclusive
we don't want 6 in our range, since it's in the original interval. we don't want any overlap in our complement
(6,infinity)
exactly!
so we have all numbers before: (-∞,1], and all numbers after: (6,∞)
now we just have to combine the two
(-∞,1] U (6,∞)?
yup
make sure to copy paste the union symbol the website uses
don't use a capital U, I doubt it'll work
It works.
Now I just need help with like one or two more
would I solve for T first?
Um
all you need to do is set it to 28t-16t² ≥ 6
don't just give people answers, they need to understand how to get them
so in this case you want when H=6
Mb
it's ok, it's not an awful thing to do, just not very helpful for learning
I got it right
wait did you complete the square to get this
Yes
One more
Ive had this problem before when it was a point and a slope, and between two points, but never between three points
and use the last point (1,6) to get the point and slope you’re familiar with
So the slope I got for this is 1

What’s a constant function?
a constant function is a function whose value is the same for every input value, right?
Alright, now, with that information, what shall be the rate of change on every interval?
Why? Consider a constant function, $y=4$
Heisenbug
What’s the rate of change? (Plot if you don’t understand)
Correct.
not really
Heisenbug
This is the formula for rate of change, if given in interval, i.e (a, b), where you know a,b. Do you know how to continue from here?
What confuses me is that im given 2 x's and not a full point
What confuses you? Consider b=8, a=3.
you can plug in x into f(x) to get a point

The points that I have to use arent clear to me
$x_1 = x+ 4y , x_2 = x-4y$

Do you know what AA similarity test means? @fallow zinc
If 2 triangles have at least 2 angles the same, then they're similar. If you find pair of triangles with 2 angles in common, you can conclude that they're similar.
Another similarity is SSS. Side-side-side. If sides of 1 triangle are 3, 4 and 5 and sides of another triangle are 6, 8 and 10, you can conclude that these 2 triangles are similar, because 3/6=4/8=5/10. For this similarity test, I recommend you to order the side lengths in ascending order so you can compare them.
This is how you do SSS test

hello, I am having troubles soulving a trignometric equation, I have arrived to this point, is this true?
Hello, is the 30 and 60 in degrees or in radians?
in degrees
What is the point of the square?
And do you know the sin(a+b)=cos(a)sin(b)+sin(a)cos(b) formula?
yes
Oh you replaced cosines with sines, right?
it is because I have used the sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) = 1 and I substituted the cos(x) = sqrt(1-sin^2(x))
you can use the fact that cos(30)=1/2 and sin(30)=sqrt(3)/2 to directly substitute those values
okey, thanks, do you see any other error?
But why?
it's not an error, you are just making it harder than it is. I would just keep the cosines there, and replace the sin(30) and cos(30)
If you really want to do it that way, you need square roots
Here it won't cause any issues, but when the angles go higher than 90 degrees, it will cause issues with signs

it seems like it's using the logic version of de-morgans law to prove the set version
not sure how much you want to go into logic but proving de-morgans law from nothing is probably quite a bit harder
Seem to me that proofs should be built from the ground up. All resources (that I can find) show it the same way. Got any other suggestions or resources to check out? Or it is that time of "accept it and move on".
while in principle I agree that proofs should be built from the ground up, not in this particular case
just take the basic laws of logic and accept them
proving them from the ground up is hard
logic in general is very hard

Is a linear map from R^2 to R^2 given by (x,y) --> (x,0) a linear transformation or just a map?
It maps to R^2 so its a transformation but it feels weird how the map maps all of R^2 onto R^1 so the space isnt rly transformed but changed
have you tried verifying the properties in the def of linear transformation?
Well according to the definition its a transformation since it maps to itself
Still confused and looking for some intuition on why that definition makes sense given this example
i said linear transformation tho
wait but you don't even know if it's a linear transformation yet, do you?
sooooo this haha
The properties being that its a linear map which maps onto itself or?
Bcs thats what i learned a linear transformation is
wait what, linear map and linear transformation are not the same thing for you?
No

A linear map is a map between vector spaces satisfying certain properties (linearity)
A linear transformation is a linear map from a vector space to itself
Like how a linear form is a linear map from a vector space to its field of scalars
map, function, transformation etc mean essentially the same thing
dw about it too much
apparently not right now
Oh we learned that a transformation is on a vector space while a map is between vector spaces
So a map between two different vector spaces would count as a transformation?
I guess apparently not in your course
pretty atypical
Oh but i ment according to you guys?
yes
I don't make any distinction between them at all
same loll
It sounds usefull tho since you can speak of eigenvectors of a linear transformation but not of a linear map
And linear transformations always have square matrices
As far as i know
linear transformations aren't just matrices when you work with vector spaces in general
I ment the corresponding matrix representation is always square
well yes me too
but
linear transformations (or maps whatever you call them lmaoo) don't necessarily have a "matrix representation" with other vector spaces
that aren't like, real number vector spaces
well they do if you pick a basis
that's like half the point of linear algebra. that every linear map on finite dim spaces is essentially a matrix
I thought all scalar fields were representable with matrices
Meaning a matrix can consist of scalars from any scalar field so a transform/map between spaces can always be represented by a matrix
Girl
Can someone help me with this
Anyway ill just interpret it as a linear map since thats how my.bo9k defined it and ig it doesnr rly matter to much if its a "good" definition if its atypical
loll
I mean it's still from R^2 to R^2

how would i work this out? also, any pointers in being able to solve this quickly, like test conditions?
also if i have another question do i post it here or?
are you familiar with the area ratio of similar shapes?
knowing the side ratio?
Recall that the ratio of similar figures = the square of the ratio of side lengths
welp it's in the message above
By AA similarity, the triangles are similar. Therefore they've same ratio's of heights and sides. Area of triangle is base*height. In the second triangle, base is 1.2*base in first triangle, and height must be 1.2 times as large, as height in first triangle
yep
is it 30?
36?
Correct
thanks
Oh and the factor was derived by 12/10
You probably can post it here
So let's mark Item 1 as A, item 2 as B, item 3 as C, and item 4 as D.
yep
It's actually really easy
easy as in “wow how tf do u not know that” or “it’s fine you can learn the concept quickly”
Can someone help me out on this question
We can do this 4 equations, right?
yep\
it's alr if you are 14 years old and struggling, everyone learns at different speeds.
a is 77
Correct
tbh i remember when i was 14 years old, a lot of my classmates struggled with math even easier than this lol
and they are completely fine
What else can you do?
Yes! What will 137-88 be equal to?
49
Okay, and what combination of letters is 49?
c and d?
Yep, so we have this. What can you do now?
Correct. By replacing C in first equation with 6*D, you get new equation
is c 42 or am i dumb
And by dividing it by 7 you get D
yep
So you had 4 equation at start, and by replacing the letters with numbers or different letters you got the solution. And that's how you solve system of equations. I told you it's easy :)
tysm
You are welcome :)

Hello
To calculate sign(sigma), do you use a particular formula?
Or do you just go and figure out all the "errors" (?) and then do sign(sigma) = (-1)^m where m is the number of "errors"?
An "error" is defined as an index-pair (i,j) with 1 <= i < j <= n and sigma(i) > sigma(j)
yes
you can count the number of transpositions
alternatively, you can decompose the permutation into disjoint cycles and count the number of even length cycles

Im dum with math pls help (இдஇ; ). Circular measure
I cant seem to know how to find the angle
What's your progress, have you determined any lengths or something?
I only know tht half of the radius is 7🥲😞
If half the radius is 7, what wil |OP| be?
Tried to do sin cos tan but tht wont find the angle
7
Great, now you can find |PR| using pythagoran's theorem
Sorry, you don't need it. I misread the question
Okayಥ_ಥ
you know that cos(QOR)=7/14, right?
Try to think about what I just wrote, does it make sense to you?
7 is the adjacent side, 14 is hypotenuse. Cos is adjacent/hypotenuse
You need to use inverse cosine. Or acos
it's the same
You know the cos(QOR)=1/2, so the angle is InverseCos(1/2)
gtg, if you will need more help ping Helpers
sorry, bye

I need help with these 3
@neat pewter are those answers yours?
Yes
do you have work to show how you got them?
maybe you were on the right track but screwed up somewhere
Yes
For the first one
I multiplied 13 12 and bunch of numbers to get
154440
For the second one I meant
"13 12 and a bunch of numbers" is not very precise.
okay, so you calculated 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9
for what purpose?
what does this product represent?
13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 cannot be the probability of anything
it is not a number between 0 and 1
and even if it was, i'd then ask you why you are taking its reciprocal...
anyway
for this problem, i'd consider the following:
it does not actually matter how many cd's you have in your library.
it only matters that 5 cd's end up on the rack.
Yes
and among all possible permutations of the 5 cd's on the rack, in how many cases are they in alphabetical order?
1
that's right
and how many ways are there to place 5 objects in a row?
5 distinct objects i must add
how and why did you get 25?
5 times 5
ok, why 5 * 5?
I guessed I’m not sure
well, your guess was way off the mark.
have you heard of such a thing as factorials?
I think so
when calculating how many ways exist to put 5 cd's on a rack,
there are 5 options for what CD will go in the first slot,
4 options for what CD will go in the second slot (do you understand why it isn't 5 again?),
3 options for what will go in the third slot,
2 options for the fourth and finally 1 option for the fifth.
for a total of 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 options.
you have a lot of combinatorics review to do, that's for sure :P
yes, there are 120 ways to place 5 CD's on a rack.
So 1/120
so the answer to problem #2 is 1/120, yes.
in general you should never just blurt out numbers.
5 cards are drawn randomly from a standard deck of 52 cards. Determine the probability that exactly 3 of these cards are aces.
okay, so...
how did you get the answer that you got
I think I searched it
you searched what and where
so you tried some steps.
Yea but in my head I don’t have it on paper
Bonjour Ann
that's bad. you should write stuff down on paper more.
anyway, we're gonna need to do some more combinatorics.
Ok
we will need to find the following counts:
- the number of ways to deal a hand of 5 cards out of 52
- the number of ways to pick 3 aces out of __ (how many are in a standard deck?)
- the number of ways to pick 2 non-aces out of __ (how many are in a standard deck?)
Ok
do you know how to find these counts
No
okay then look up "permutations and combinations"
come back here when you have done so and attempted the problem

I'm in gr 10 so this problem may seem basic to some, but how do I go about solving this?
its
simple
first factorize
the quadratic equation
11x^2-14w+3
and then add the factors

anyone have any tips on how to start this?
i tried Chinese Remainder theorem but im having trouble because of the left having multiple terms
it is technically factorable
if that would help
otherwise you could do case by case mod 5 and then case by case mod 7
since the entire thing is a function of n^2 you could do case by case on n^2 in which case 0,1,4 are the only possible values
mod 5
(and something similar mod 7)
ohh i see. i would have to go through 12 cases
yeah
hm
would substituting u for n^2 help
isn't Fermat a^(p-1) is equivalent to 1
multiply by a
yep that's what i meant
then you get that 15n^2-n^2=14*n^2 equivalent to 0
do the same with 5
ill try this way
and there you go
ye that's fastest
you have to separate two cases tho !!
if p doesn't divides n
you have n^(p-1)==1 [7]
else n==0
==0?
only when p doesn't divide n
yes, sorry i'm drunk
dw lol
arent 2,3 also possible values?
ah i see
im very new to this, i find it incredible that u guys seem to be comfortable with the world of congruences
and u figure this out by checking n from 0 to 4 right?
because mod 5 is small enough
yeah
after 5 they'll start to repeat
important facts about mod theory is that
adding and multiplying residues is "well defined"
in the sense that
a+b mod n will always be determined by a mod n and b mod n
yeah i get u
(a+b) mod n = (a mod n + b mod n) mod n
same thing for multiplication
ab mod n is always the same as long as a mod n and b mod n are the same
is that by property of addition?
idk
i knew it worked but i couldnt figure out a proof for it
oh right thats nice
yep
multiplication is similar
it's worth noting for example that
a == b mod n does not mean
2^a == 2^b mod n
so it's specifically addition and multiplication
alright got it. ive yet to encounter this case but ill keep it in mind now
ty for the help btw. i really appreicate it
@queen osprey Has your question been resolved?
to close this question, i said:
every interger n satisfies
n== 0 mod 5
n== 0 mod 7
which implies n == 0 mod 35 (by chinese remainder theorem)
so every n satisfies the congruence

what am i doing wrong in this picture
what happens to an inequality if you times or divide by a negative?
also missed a - sign when indicating intention to divide
well what do you have after fixing your mistake
i think x<2
yes,
so overall you have
x<2 or x>=2
trying simplifying that and/or consider what values satisfy that
so all values are solutions??
yes
because its OR and not AND
oh okay thank you very much
as long as a value satisfies either of those inequalities, its a solution

I need the parent function for each of these if possible
Uhm the rules pls?
The parent functions are basically just the very, very basic form of each of them
But google can easily tell you all of them
Ig if we relied on Google only then the very whole motive of helping would be no more there
didn't you ask this yesterday?
I'm trying to clarify, I used what was said yesterday (1/x) and didn't get the right values
Oh yeah he did
Which one?
Reciprocal function?
Maybe it wants x^(-1)
yeah
Which is stupid
btw
should I always use -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3
as my x value
or are there ones where this isnt convinent
in a table of vlaues
Table of values for?
finding the parent graph
Yeah you could use any.
Its just that, it'd be better to keep values small, just to ease your calculations
These are like optimal values, so that you dont miss on any parts (hopefully) whilst graphing the curve
Negative, zero and positive - make sure to include all of them, as the behavior of the function changes in different places / intervals
yeah
Yup
