What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
try doing u substitution
it didnt get me anywhere
what did you get
what if you add and subtract something to the numerator?
to get the derivative of the bottom
I tried adding and subtracting cos x
yes
but then i get 1 - cosx/(cosx + sinx)
okay then I'm not sure how to proceed
$\frac{sin(\theta)-cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)+cos(\theta)} + \frac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)+cos(\theta)}$
kheerii
ah so I can solve the first one by substitution
but the second fraction is similar to what I already have
somehow in this expression you want the numerator to be the same as the denominator
in the second fraction
right?
okay
yep

Can you tell me how to solve this
?
= x -1/1+x
e^(2x)/(1+e^x) = e^x + 1/(e^x+1) - 1

$f(x)=\frac{x}{1-3x}$ find $f^{-1}$
b0ngl0rd
$y=\frac{x}{1-3x}$
Basudev
Basudev
im stuck on how to manipulate it here though, i would usually start by moving the denom to the left
then i got x(1-3y)=y
not sure after that
Distribute the multiplication on the left side
x=y(3x+1)?
Yes
1=y(3x+1)/x ?

I'm trying to find out how to integrate the u variable into the equation can you guys help me with this?
chain rule
and quotient rule
solve for y'(u)
then plug in u(x)
make sure to use chain rule for u(x) since its a function of x
okok I'll try

The Air Force receives 40% of its parachutes from Company C1, and the rest from Company C2. The probability that a parachute will fail to open is .0025 given it is from C1 and .002 given it is from C2, respectively. If a random parachute fails to open, what is the probability that it is from C2?
I have a tree diagram describing all possible outcomes.
I know that P of C1 is .4, and P of C2 is (therefore) .6.
I also know that P(F|C1) = .0025, and P(F|C2) = .002.
Since I have these given values, I can assume that P(F^c|C1) = .9975, and P(F^c|C2) = .998.
It is asking me the probability of (C2|F). I thought that the way this would be solved is by using the formula
P(A|B) = P(A&B) / P(B)
That’s the correct train of thought
Ignore the reply^, I meant to say that to your last text
In this case P(B) would represent the probability that any parachute fails, right?
Yes.
Which would be the accumulative sum of all probabilities of failure; .002 + .0025 = .0045
It would be the sun of the respective probabilities of each company multiplied by the probability of the parachutes failing for each company
I think this is a bayes theorem question
So 0.4(0.0025) + (0.6)(0.002)
When searching up this theorem this is what shows up.
Is this what you are referring to?
Yes
This is essentially, P(A|B)= P(A&B) / P(B), no?
It’s really just an extension of your original
Yes, correct
But it serves to highlight more how you calculate each component since it places more emphasis on conditional probabilities
So how would I get to this?
In this case, the probability that a parachute fails is given by the P(F|C1)P(C1) + P(F|C2)P(C2)
This might be a better equation to follow for bayes theorem
Ohhh, I see. Yes, I finally found one of the answers that is actually a choice on my homework lol
How do I know when to use Bayes' Theorem instead of the normal P(B|A)?
You are technically using the normal P(B|A) whenever you use bayes theorem
Or is it simply because B depends upon A and therefore demands Bayes' Theorem?
You can think of it like that
Basically within this scope, it’s safe to connect conditional probabilities -> bayes theorem
Given the correct type of problem, of course
I see I see.
Thank you so much. I will add this theorem to my notes.
The correct answer should be .5455 I believe.
As it would be .0012 / .0022.

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
So I’m doing the cylinders first so I’m doing py x 4 squared x 5
There’s 2 of them
So I times that by 2
Then find the volume by doing
10x8x5
pi, not py. and don't use the letter x for multiplication.
pi * 4^2 * 5 would give you the volume of a cylinder with radius 4 cm and height 5 cm.
you do not have 2 such cylinders in your solid
instead, you have two halves of such a cylinder on either side.
I got 251.327
So now would I get the volume of the cube by doing 10 * 8 * 5 ?
Ok
But is the calculation correct?
Result:
251.32741228718
checks out.
Then do I do this ? @royal basin
Then add them together and that’s the answer
yes
,calc 10 * 8 * 5
Result:
400
,calc 251.327 pi + 400
Result:
1189.5670568488
@royal basin any idea why?
Gave me a new question now
So I would do pi * 3^2 * 4
Then 6 * 4 * 10
Then add them all together
ah, perhaps it is because you rounded to 3 decimal places instead of 3 significant figures as they told you to.
my bad for not catching that immediately.
No worries
Ah ok I’ll try again now
,calc pi * 3^2 * 10
Result:
282.74333882308
Result:
240
,calc 283 + 240
Result:
523
@royal basin what you think
in the future you should do all rounding AFTER all calculations, not in the middle...
though i suppose in this particular case your mistake doesn't affect anything
ah, of course, you're putting the wrong measurements in the wrong places again
10 isnt the height of the cylinders
the height is 4
Result:
113.09733552923
,calc pi * 3^2 * 4 + 10 * 6 * 4
Result:
353.09733552923
Result:
240
,calc 113 + 240
Result:
353
yes
Finally my last question done aha. Thanks a lot

How did you solve it?
I first put -1 and 1 and it said it was wrong
it says that the answer is -1.2 and -.4 so Im not sure how
Did you calculate the projection of a onto b, or b onto a?
Why did you divide by (-2^2 +2^2)?
thats what the example says u must do
If you're using this notation, note that it's dot product of a,b divided by dot product of b,b multiplied by b
this is how Im supposed to follow it tho
and that is what I did but I ended up with -1, and 1 for my answer for this prblm
\
You did your projection wrong
Look at your solution again and see on what vector you projected
@past walrus did you see your mistake?
no
I mean I followed all the steps and got this so I rlly cant see where its wrong
You found a projection on b
Ok?
If these were the vectors, you would've calculated how vector a looks projected onto vector b. When instead you wanted the opposite like francis said
These two are entirely different projections. See which one you did and choose the correct one

what is the largest 4 digit palindrome whose digits are prime numbers and the total of its digits is 16?

Please only use the <@&286206848099549185> ping once if your question has not been answered for 15 minutes. Please do not ping or DM individual users about your question.
what's troubling you?
Notice there are only 4 single digit primes
2,3,5,7
okay
The number is a palindrome so atmost 2 of these 4 digits can be used
we don't give answers here
also you should say what confuses you
in words
maybe there are some parts of the problem that you don't understand
we can clear those up but only if you tell us
what’s a palindrome
a number which is same if read backwards
like 121
or 3553
So it is clear that only 2 out of the 4 numbers 2,3,5,7 will be used
because the 2 numbers will repeat itself
2662
to make a palindrome
That is for sure a palindrome but not the one you are looking for
Since your palindrome has only prime digits
But 6 is composite
this is a palindrome and it has four digits and they sum to 16 but not all digits are prime

can you only do partial fraction if the degree between numerator and denominator is 1
How do I integrate this $\int \frac{1}{x(1+x^6)}dx$
afeAlway
"degree between numerator and denominator"?
do you mean to ask "Is a partial fraction decomposition legal to perform ONLY when the denominator's degree is EXACTLY 1 more than that of the numerator"?
yes that is what I meant to say
then the answer is no.
you can perform a partial fraction decomposition on any proper rational function, meaning deg(num) < deg(denom)
it is not necessary that the difference in degrees be exactly 1
as for that integral you posted? it looks painful.
you would probably need to factor x^6 + 1
as (x^2+1)(x^4-x^2+1)
and then that quartic too
$1 = A(1+x^6) + Bx$
afeAlway
no. you skip a dozen steps and you land in the mud.
do not skip steps. do not speedrun.
This is what I end up tho when I tried to do partial fraction. I didn't skip it on my paper. I just didn't wanna write everything here
IF you wanted to use x and 1+x^6 as your denominator,
(which you shouldn't, because 1+x^6 is factorable,)
THEN over the denominator 1+x^6 you would need to put a generic fifth-degree polynomial
how I can I factorize it
.
i was in fact about to say how x^4-x^2+1 factors
because factor it does
but in a mildly unpleasant way
how did you factorize it
"it"?
this one
you could have asked more clearly, "How did you factor x^6 + 1 as (x^2+1)(x^4-x^2+1)?"
to which i say, i treated x^6 + 1 as a sum of cubes.
Still doesn't explain how it got factorized to (x^2+1)(x^4-x^2+1)?
At least for me it doesn't make sense
do you know the sum of cubes identity?
nope
that's what i used
alright then
x^4 - x^2 + 1 can be written as x^4 + 2x^2 + 1 - 3x^2 and this can then be factored as a difference of squares
(x^2+1)^2 - (sqrt(3)x)^2

x+y+z=0
x, y, z belong to set of real numbers,
then this equation has infinite number of solutions, right?
We could write all solutions of such equation by set notation:
{ (x, y, z) | z = - (x + y) }
solution is a set of tuples, where the given condition is satisfied, and where x and y are independent variables (that belong to set R).
If so, then I have a question about geometric representation of solutions for this equation. Is the solution a single plane (all points on one plane) or infinite number of planes?
one plane
Ayo I’ve learned just enough LA to help here
The points on your solution is (x, y, -x-y), which if you turned them into vectors would span a plane in 3D space
@timid silo Has your question been resolved?
In these equations x, y and z are specific points, x is a coordinate on x axis (x, 0, 0), y is a point (0, y, 0), z (0, 0, z).
And one specific plane will have only one specific combination of x, y, z.
but if I write the plane as
x + y + z = 0
or
z = -(x+y)
then if I say that x=1 and y=1, then z = - 2
one plane (1,1,-2)
but if I say x=2, y=2 then z= - 4
different plane (2,2,-4)
So, my solution for x+y+z=0 is infinite number of planes..
A plane is described using 2 vectors that are linearly independent scaled to any length within ℝ
In your case it’s a(1,0,-1) + b(0,1,-1), a,b ∈ ℝ
(I hope I’m doing this right, please tell me off if I say anything wrong)
can't say it is clear.. am pretty much confused trying to visualize it and combine it with algebra..
I'll try again a bit later
Appreciate your help @grizzled shore @kind hawk
I'll have in mind your answers.
Thanks!

i have no idea
ok
tell me what you get
you always have to use the chain rule
but how do i chain this
what
3x^2 h(x^2) + h(x^2)x^3
you're on the right track
but you have to use the chain rule
for the second term
when you differentiate h(x^2)
you will get h'(x^2)
but you have to multiply it by the derivative of the inside function
ok
so what will you get
why not the first term tho
because you are not differentiating h in the first term
why h?
i thought its h(x^2) 2x
when you differentiate h, will it not become h'?
what?
wait im confused
what will you get after differentiating h(x)
uh
yea
so you can just calculate g'(2) directly
by putting x = 2 in this equation

1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above

We can write N as:
N = 111...111 (2*n times) = (10^(2n) - 1)/9
Taking the square root of N, we get:
sqrt(N) = sqrt[(10^(2n) - 1)/9]
We can simplify this expression as follows:
sqrt(N) = sqrt[(10^(2n) - 1)/9] = sqrt[(10^n + 1)*(10^n - 1)/9]
sqrt(N) = (10^n + 1)/3 * sqrt[(10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1)]
Let's focus on the second term in the expression above:
sqrt[(10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1)]
We can express this as a continued fraction as follows:
sqrt[(10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1)] = [1/(1 + (10^n - 2)/(10^n + 1))] = [1/(1 + 1/(10^n + 1)/(10^n - 2))]
We can truncate the continued fraction after a certain number of terms to obtain an approximation for the square root. For example, if we truncate the continued fraction after two terms, we get:
sqrt[(10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1)] ≈ [1/(1 + 1/(10^n - 1))] = [(10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1)]
Therefore, we can approximate sqrt(N) as:
sqrt(N) ≈ (10^n + 1)/3 * (10^n - 1)/(10^n + 1) = (10^n - 1)/3
The (n+1)st digit after the decimal point in sqrt(N) is the digit in the (n+1)st position after the decimal point in (10^n - 1)/3. We can write (10^n - 1)/3 as:
(10^n - 1)/3 = 333...332 (n times) + 1/3
Therefore, the (n+1)st digit after the decimal point in sqrt(N) is the (n mod 3 + 1)st digit of 333...332. We can compute this digit as follows:
If n mod 3 = 0, the (n+1)st digit after the decimal point is 3.
If n mod 3 = 1, the (n+1)st digit after the decimal point is 3.
If n mod 3 = 2, the (n+1)st digit after the decimal point is 2.
Therefore, the digit in the (n+1)st position after the decimal point in sqrt(N) is:
If n mod 3 = 0 or 1, the digit is 3.
If n mod 3 = 2, the digit is 2.
Note that the result above holds for n >= 1
IS IT TRUE ??
@vernal flower Has your question been resolved?
well im not gonna read through that but look at when n =1, we have sqrt(11) = 3.3166247903554
so the n+1th digit here is 1
which isnt what ur proof says
@vernal flower Has your question been resolved?
True
Any ideas to prove it ?
not sure but you can try using my counterexample to see where your proof falls wrong
also try for other values of n

hey
im trying to do this but a bit stuck
i wanna say its an elliptic paraboloid
but that 1 is not making that the case
Take cross sections of the surface it’ll help
wdym by cross sections?
Like set z=k and see what type of 2D thing it is
like this?
would this be an elliptic parabloid

How would you calculate this? (Stats)
i know the multiplication rule and the addition rule and stuff
i just dont know what the steps would be to solve this
also this
If the prizes are equivalent, then you need to find out how many ways there are of picking three tickets out of the 62 sold, do you agree?
yes but how would i do that
Have you learned about permutations and combinations?
yes but i dont understand how to do them
how would i apply that in this situation?
One of these questions is asking you the number of 3-permutations and the other one is asking you to for the number of 3-combinations of 62 objects.
I don't mean to be harsh, but if you don't see which one to apply to which problem, you should take a minute to relearn permutations and combinations (from your textbook or maybe KhanAcademy) and then come back to these questions later.

What does it mean if an angle is coterminal
I did and I dont understand it
how is 390 even on there
if its a circle
thats why im asking
This video provides an examples of how to determine if two angles are coterminal.

i still dont get it
so you know a circle has 360 degrees right? and you also understand ow quadrants work?

How do you do this question
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
the topmost row contains exactly 1 log
So n would be 21?
i don't know what the letter n is. you have not introduced it.
i was going to ask you to write the number of logs in the pile as a summation with a term for each row
yuck
but yes, perhaps that would be so.
would prefer you write down the summation itself though
What is summation
sum
So the answer?
as in, i want you to write out what it is that we wish to add together
without calculating it
before plunging into any formulaic bullshit
yes, that
you could have recognized this as the 21st triangular number (and the problem even mentioned the word "triangular") but you didn't
if you wish to use that formula you talked about then i can't exactly stop you
even though imo it would be a bit circular
What is imo
in my opinion

Hmm can someone remind me why we can optimise x^2 + y^2 +z^2 instead of sqrt(x^2 + y^2 +z^2) to find the shortest distance between something and its constraints 
Is it because both y = x and y = sqrt(x) are monotonic
the squaring function is monotone
Yeah right okay, so technically any equivalent monotonic function could also be viable in this case right 
Like what about an exponential function for example
Let's say we are masochistic and want to replace x^2 +y^2 + z^2 with e^(x^2 +y^2 + z^2)
Oh okay okay cool

,w int 1/(25 - x^2)^(3/2)
@lost summit Has your question been resolved?
I can look up the answer but I wanna know where I messed up thats what
huh
It was (25-25sin^2)^(3/2)
I took out the 25 by rooting then cubing = 125
and the 5cos is on top
so its 5/125 = 25
oh you directly changed so I got a bit confused
can someone help me here
won't that cosx above cancel the cos^3x below
Please read #❓how-to-get-help
OHH THATAS WHY
get your own help channel
Im solving for 1/25 integral of 1/cos^2
which is sec^2x
1/25 tan(theta) then just do pythagorean theorem
yep

For the last part I understand that the maximum is 3 for the new range, but I don’t understand why it’s greater than zero
Hint: 2x^2 + 4x + 9 = 2(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 7
i assume tho if the graph is inverted/turned upside down it would go below zero on the y axis?
2x^2 + 4x + 9 is always positive, so is 21/(2x^2 + 4x + 9)
yeah
hmm
it would be squished towards 0 but not below 0
i thought that only tells u that max is 3
oh okay yeah i learn visually so was struggling to see it😂
thanks so much guys
yeee
i feel like most would just plot in their graphical calc

How did he come to the conclusion that e^x is always bigger than 0? (Thus removing the negative at the last line).
I think it's because of derivatives, like if you reduce the x by one it can never be zero
Can you elaborate?
It is generally true
bot is down I guess
Ah right no matter what I plug in, it'll be above 0
e > 0 -> e^x > 0
e^x = (e^(x/2))^2 is a square and therefore not negative
Unless the base is negative or 0 itself

If there is a condition for a binary string: "can have at most one occurrence of 000"
Would you say that 0000 and 00000 both have multiple occurences (since there is overlap)
Or are those examples fine?
if that statement as such is given correctly, then 0000 has exactly 2 occurrences of 000
but you should check if that is given correctly, for formatting of binary files for example it searches for the first occurrence of the word, then searches again afterwards, meaning if you search for 'ababa' in ccababababcc you will find the ababa, and the search again afterwards with the remaining babcc, so there it's only once

can someone help
Start filling out angles you can find and the solution should present itself
You will also have to consider sums of angles
yeah?
whats this number? 30?
20
then thats correct
then how can i found the right part
whats their sum?
240
now you have to use some bigger equation
say that a and b are the angles in the top, and b is the one you want to find
use information you have to make an equation system
well, you have more information given other than a+b=40
where?
hum
the second line could've been the middle like:
240=360-a-b-50-30
which just becomes 40=a+b too
then the equation system gives a=a or 0=0, meaning all a work
but we know angles must be atleast some number, so a>0, which also implies b>0, and thus a<40 and b<40 or a+b=40

yeah thats fine
i got the right answer when i pressed this into the calculator but the working is giving me other answers
to translate this into human readable language, "I have the answer key in my book, but when I did it on paper, I got something different."
share the working with us

i should probably disengage before i get overly irritated sorry
im just stuck at the circled part
[
\f{1+\s6}{-1+\s6} \cdot \f{-1-\s6}{-1-\s6}
]
we need to simplify this
this is more or less just FOIl
and difference of squares
do you have any idea what either of those terms mean? @frosty valve
never seen this b4
does this help
okay
so you are basically doing this for both the numerator and denominator
try it out
uhm
how did u magically
summon the -7 on the right
you are multiplying the square roots right?
yes
sorry
why tho
wdym 'why'
how do i know when to cancel the negatives
when...you can?
oh
like you have [
\f{-7-2\s6}{-5} ]
you can factor the negative sign from the numerator and cancel it with the one in the denominator
only when the numerator and denominator has negatives?
then we can cancel it off?

What's your question?
,w 1.38 * 273 * 1.414 * 3.14 * 1.01
Let's call this number k
Ok
So we have 70 = kd^2 * 10^-18
Here you simply need to divide both sides by k and multiply both sides by 10^18
So that it becomes d^2 = 70/k * 10^18
And d will simply be plus or minus the root of that
By any chance, is the definition of d also given?
For example is it a length/distance?
Yup it's physics chapter and the d is diameter of mole
Yea
,w sqrt(10^18 * 70/(1.38 * 273 * 1.414 * 3.14 * 1.01))
Approximately 2 * 10^8
But as I know in last my teacher said answer would be something like 4.313 I can't remember but it's something 4.
@sage geode
Graphing calculator is providing this as well
The teacher is wrong then I suppose
Or you plugged a value incorrectly
It says 70nm, not 70m
And the right hand side should be inverted
Hm, still doesn't give 4

Need to find p(A) can't seem to get a start looks like it shouldn't be too hard
But really stuck
p(a) should be 0.3
P(A|B) * P(B) = 0.1 * 0.6 = 0.06
P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)
so P(A) = P(A and B) / P(B|A) = 0.06 / 0.2 = 0.3

P(B|A) = P(A|B) * P(B) / P(A)
P(B) = P(B|A) * P(A) + P(B|not A) * P(not A) [use the law of total probability]
P(A) + P(not A) = 1 => P(A) = 1 - P(not A)
