Why are the multiplying it by xy
Can't i find the answer without multiplying whole equation??
It gets rid of the fractions
And makes ur life easier
U will have to do something similar to that one way or another
Oh thx

why do you think there should not be a two
also missing () around (x-3)
Sorry I just realised I have posted the wrong image
This is the correct image
I derive with first principles and get the same result excluding the 2 in the denominator
you didn't distribute that 2 in the numerator to the h

How would I work out question 9a

What’s that?
Simple simplification works well
Now you can use 2tantheta /1+tan²theta

Suppose A is the set of all 8-digit numbers whose digits consist of 1, 2, or 3 and contain at least one digit 2. There are N numbers in "A" such that every 2-digit in N is enclosed by a 1 and a 3
What I have tried:
Seperating it into cases where there is 1, 2, 3 number of 2s
For 1 2s:
There are 6 ways to place the 2
There are 2^6 ways place the other digits
so 6 * 2^6 = 6 * 64 = 384
For 2 2s:
I don't know
that's where I'm stuck
nvm I can do it for 2 2s
For 2 2s:
6 * 2^4 = 6 * 16 = 96
For 2 3s:
now i dont know
aight ima just switch questions

why doesnt this diverge
What's lim n goes to infinity of sin(10/n)?
tbh i saw a youtubevid with a similar q ish and just followed the methods
id assume (-1)^n where n -> infinity makes it immediatly diverge
(-1)^n is alternating between -1 and 1
so if the rest is a 0 sequence, then it converges
so no good
10/n tend to 0 so sin tend to 0 and 0×1^n is 0 no ?
oh so is this like a sin graph moment
sin(10/n) approaches 0 as can be seen by, say, squeeze theorem.
multiplying it by the bounded sequence (-1)^n does not affect its convergence to zero.
oops
sorry whats the first method to this apporach
sin is also continuous so you can evaluate the limit of the argument no?
+0=-0
(-1)^n is alternating between -1 and 1
so id need squeze for this
yes what 2 functions could you choose?

helloo
what does it mean when a number sohuld be "divisible"
in our econ assignment it is said that output is assumed as q>=0 and is divisible
Does it say just "is divisible"?
yup
Let q = amount of the single output produced (output level). We also assume q is divisible.
that's what it says

im thinking it should be divisible by a whole number but idk xD
since i got answer which is 100/3 and it's divisible by 1/3
welp ill just ask instructor tomorrow i guess, thanks!

Need some help with this question please
cos(n) is bounded
Have you considered using the squeeze theorem?
I have the squeeze theorem notes open right now
but having trouble understanding and how to apply it to this
okay so i get that cos(n) is bound to -1 and 1
-1<= cos(n) <= 1
(-2 - 8n)/(n + 1) <= (3cos(n) + 1 - 8n)/(n + 1) <= (4 - 8n)/(n + 1)
right I understand the working now thanks
but how do I find the limit from this?
unsure how to remove n from the left or right equation
Divide top and bottom by n
For both of the limits
but it should be easy to find the limit of this here though, no?

$\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{-12}{n} +\frac{108i}{n^2} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{-12}{n} +\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{108i}{n^2} $\
Since $\frac{-12}{n}$ is constant, the sum is just that multiplied by n\
Since $\frac{108}{n^2}$ is constant, you can pull it out of the sum and be left with $\frac{108}{n^2}\left(\sum_{i=1}^n i\right)$

Why does the 1.5 root equal 4? I'm not sure how the 1.5 root or whatever its called tells us that its equal to 4.
@olive kraken Has your question been resolved?
1.5 is 3/2, I'll use that from now on.
"3/2nd root" is really just taking your number to the 2/3 exponent.
And that means cuberoot(8²)
= 2² = 4

Am I missing something here? Shouldn't the last term be + log_3(x-2), since the argument, (x-2), is being multiplied by (x-1)?
log(a/(bc)) = log(a) - log(bc) = log(a) - [log(b) + log(c)] = log(a) - log(b) - log(c)

How can I solve this?
for a fraction to equal 0, what would the numerator equal to
0?
What?
are you familiar with finding the zeros of polynomials
No
do you know how to factor
Yes
To simplify?
not in this case
so say i have the equation:
x^2 + x - 12 = 0
how do I figure out what x is?
first we need to factor
this factors to (x+4)(x-3) = 0
if you have 2 or more things that multiply together
you can say for a fact that if any of them are equal to 0
the whole thing is equal to 0
so for (x+4)(x-3)
we know that if x+4 = 0
the whole thing is
and the same for x-3
so what does x have to be for x+4 to equal 0?
-4
and x=3 to make (x-3)=0
-4
3
now we know that if x=3 or x=-4, then (x+4)(x-3)
this is the solution to x^2 + x - 12 = 0
if we plug 3 or -4 into that original equation
we can see that it is true
now going back to the original problem
if the numerator is 0, the whole thing is 0
because 0 / anything = 0
another way we could see this is by multiplying both sides by x
so we get the equation:
x^2 * (x-2) = 0
how do we find what x is equal to?
get rid of the -2?
not quite
we have 2 things multiplied by each other: x^2 and (x-2)
how can we make the whole thing equal to zero
if 2 things multiply together, and you make one of them 0, the whole thing will be equal to 0
so what happens if you plug in 0 for x
then x^2 comes out to be 0
and it doesn't matter whatever else happens because anything * 0 = 0
so now do the same thing for (x-2)
what do we plug in for x to make that 0
0?
I am so lost
does it make sense what i did here or can i explain it more
that's alright
i think this video explains it pretty well
👉 Learn how to solve a quadratic equation by applying the quadratic formula. To apply the quadratic formula the quadratic equation must be equal to zero. Then you can apply the quadratic formula to determine solutions to the equation, when factoring is not possible.
👏SUBSCRIBE to my channel here: https://www.youtube.com/user/mrbrianmclogan?s...
ok
I understand that
ok
use that method to find the roots of (x^2)(x-2)=0
im sorry i have to go now
there's one more thing to remember once you do that
after this you'll get x=0 and x=2
but x=0 is called an extaneous solution
that's because if you plug 0 into the original equation then you will get 0/0
and dividing things by zero is not allowed
so the only solution is x=2
goodbye sorry i couldn't help more

Plssssssssss help makes no sense on 1
2 and 3
What doubt are you having? @slow robin
I dont see any paterns
See the exponents
I believe you are referring to column 1
Not all exponents are adding up to 7. Besides, you have to compare column 3 and column 1.
Let's take a very simple example
If I asked you what's (2^1) * (2^1) where the number after the '^' symbol represents the exponent , what would be your answer?
Uhhhhh
,tex $(2^1) * (2^1)$
The numbers after ^ would be gone
RaphaelZZZ
This is what I mean ☝️
Was i right
For column 2 yes but for column 3, I am not able to see what you wrote
Yep it's correct, so what's the pattern?
Let's try here
What would you write it as in a simplified form?
2x2
So what would be the value if I asked you to write it in a similar way as column 3 shows
15384
16384*
4
RaphaelZZZ
So the pattern is thAt the columns are equal
We went from here
to here
Look at the exponents
Hint: it's a simple addition thing going on
Adding the exponents gives me same amount on other column
Keep in mind that the base number has to be the same to add the exponents
Ya
That's all, we are done , do you have any further doubts?

expand (x+2)^2 and plug them in
no need to expand anything.
agreed but less room for errors
nah
only where f''(x) is positive
plug n chug
MORE room for errors that way
either way just plug in x
you really do not need to expand fuck all
you want to know when f''(x) > 0
it is already factored for you
yeah im not sure what his issue is
i thought it had something to do with the formatting
@fallow atlas are you still here?
why though, you already know (x+2)^2 will always be positive
no need to but idk why he was confused
whether it was definition of concave/convex or he didn't understand the plug n chug

if there is 4 choices but you can only pick 3 how many choices are there. No duplicates can use a choice more than once
no
$$\binom{4}{3}$$
$$^4C_3$$
$$C(4, 3)$$
do none of these look familiary?

Hi
This is my question
MPNS is a quadilateral, a line is drawn through N to cut SP at Q < MNQ = 132°, <SMN is twice angle MSQ and < NPQ is twice <QNP. If NP bisects the acute angle at N find
i) < SQN
ii) < MSQ
Relevant image is below
This is what I've been able to deduce
We are given that MPNS is a quadrilateral, and a line is drawn through N to cut SP at Q, with MNQ = 132°. We are also told that NP bisects the acute angle at N.
Since NP bisects the acute angle at N, we have <PNQ = <QNS, and therefore, <QNP = <SQN.
Let x be the measure of angle MSQ, then <SMN = 2x (as given in the problem statement).
Since NP bisects the acute angle at N, we have <MNP = <NPS. Therefore, we have:
<NPS = 180° - <MPS - <MPN
= 180° - <SMN - <MPN
= 180° - 2x - <MPN
Since <NPQ is twice <QNP, we have:
<NPQ = 2<QNP = 2<SQN = 2x
Therefore, we have:
<NPS + <NPQ + <QNS = 180°
Substituting the values we have found above, we get:
(180° - 2x - <MPN) + 2x + <PNQ = 180°
Simplifying this equation, we get:
<PNQ - <MPN = 0
Since NP bisects the acute angle at N, we have <MPN = 90° - <PNM. Therefore, we have:
<PNQ - (90° - <PNM) = 0
Solving for <PNM, we get:
<PNM = <PNQ - 90°
Since <NPQ is twice <QNP, we have <NPQ = 2<SQN = 2x. Therefore, we have:
<PNM = 2x - 90°
Now, we can solve for the angles we need to find:
i) <SQN = <QNP = 2x/2 = x
ii) <MSQ = 180° - <NPS - <SQN = 180° - (180° - 2x - <MPN) - x = x + <MPN/2
Since <MPN = 90° - <PNM, we have:
<MPN/2 = (90° - <PNM)/2 = (90° - (2x - 90°))/2 = 90°/2 - x = 45° - x
Therefore, we have:
<MSQ = x + <MPN/2 = x + (45° - x) = 45°
Would like to some knowing if I'm right.

third line at the end when you factor an x out of the (12-x^2) you write it as x(12-x) which is not true, this would give 12x-x^2
not 12-x^2
oddly enough, that would not change my answer
as x = 1
I worked out the math and still got this
@shadow lava Has your question been resolved?
you put 3/4 inside argument when typing it on calculator
and yea not oddly enough it doesnt change your answer when x=1
cause 12-x^2=12x-x^2 when x=1
subtract what you can in the denominator and type it in. should be correct
this would be the correct way to write it?
you can still subtract bottom
not sure what you meant here
hmmmm you are right
that's weird
apparently the extra brackets are needed for symbolab
lol
so this is symbolab's fault, my work is correct lol
oh yea the 2 cancels aswell
if you are actually paying attention to the problem your simplifying work should stop here
these are both the same, right?

i am indeed lost
It's asking you to "solve for" n
i know n= a-z but idk what to do with the w part
does it become divid
divide sorry
Solve for it the same way you would solve for any variable in an algebra equation
wat may that be
Guess if you have to. Start with w = an + z. You want to "isolate" n, so what's the first thing you would do?
Yes

For some reason I'm struggling a lot with being able to find eigenvectors for matrices. I have no problem finding the eigenvalues, but getting the eigenvectors from the eigenvalues is what I'm stuck at. Currently just at 2x2 matrices, so here's an example.
A =
0 2
1 -1
The two eigenvalues I've found for it is 1, and -2
So when putting λ = 1 into A - λI we get
0-1 2
1 -1-1
-1 2
1 -2
Now I don't know what to do from here. I know you can set it up like this sort of:
-1 2 | 0
1 -2 | 0
You could but of course notice how the rows depend on each other
Use that to find the dependencies between the entries of your eigenvector
Not sure what you mean
I can see that they're dependent on each other, but not sure what I'm supposed to do with that

Can you help me calculate the first derivative of this one? I have trouble with simplifying
you can start by seeing the fifth root of x as x^(1/5)
then since it is at the denominator you can but it to the numerator and it becomes x^(-1/5)
you understand so far?
wait so we dont do quotient rule?
we can just move it up and do sums and differences?
you don't need to I'll show you a trick that's pretty good
ohh alr thank you
yeah
ohh alr
idk if you already know the derivative of sqrt(x)
but you can see it works in this particular case aswell
where did the square root come from?
which one?
the last pic
the last picture?
oh I was juste showing you other examples
so you understand
better
Ohh, thank so much man
it's another example with sqrt(x)
but yea that's the answer
wouldnt you have to bring an x out?
I need to know this for my next test, could you show me how to simplyfy ((x)^-4/5) / ((x^1/5)^2)?
I think, the top is fs right but im not sure abt the bottom its X to the power of 1/5 then its all squared
Yeahh
this is some serious drawing dedication
yeaa bro you gotta help people out you know

is there a faster way to do this question?
for A., do I really need to write out $ax^2+bx+c$, and then rearranging with the set condition to get an SLE?
normalAtmosphericPa=101,325
Do you know how to show something is a subspace of a vector space
yeah
v.s. criterion righjt?
show that the set is closed under vector add and scalar mult
don’t forget the additive identity
(well, nonempty but most of the time that's done by 0, yes)
Yep
well some of these are of the form L(p)=something for a linear map L
you could use general knowledge about linear maps for those
but then again you'd of course have to show that those things are linear
so whether it really saves time, who knows
wait so for A.
how would I approach it
using the p(X) notation in the set restriction?
and showing closure under the 2 V.S. axioms
yes. every subspace needs to contain 0
oh wait
does p(x)=0 satisfy p'(x)+7p(x)+9=0 ?
no
ah that's cheeky
wait so for B.
can I just apply the conditions directly to the set restriction's notatoin
i.e. check that a * P(6) = 0
and P(6) + P(6) = 0 is true
which is always true
so it's a subspace
well you have to check that if p and q are polynomials in that space, then (p+q)(6)=0
^
I am not used to that notation lol
meaning to check for the additive identity, right?
Can I then go like, (p+q)(6) = p(6) + q(6) = 0 by linearity
ah true
the polynomial p+q is defined by (p+q)(x)=p(x)+q(x)
or well, technically polynomial addition is defined by adding all the coefficients, bla bla
but if we view polynomials as functions then this is how the addition would be defined
is this like, abstract algebra specific notation
or was this supposed to be from high school and I'm just liek
stupid
I mean even in school you added functions by (f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)
I mean more that for polynomials technically you would add them as symbols first
and then evaluate
so like p=x^2+3 and q=x^3-2x^2+x+7, then p+q=x^3-x^2+x+10
and then you evaluate
but ehh, technical stuff
not the important part here
I thought that was only for linear functions
hence, my mind went to "by linearity"
no that's just function addition in general
even for like (sin + arccot)(x) ?
yes
sin(x)+arccot(x)
that should be nothing new
it's how you always added functions
you just never really paid attention to it
what is the scope
wdym scope
well of course here we are using the plus in R by writing f(x)+g(x)
that's the addition in R
if we dont map into some set where we can add then we cannot define function addition
I see
for C., does "is constant" refer to it literally being a constant?
hence p(X) should be all degree 1 polys/lines
yes
idk lol
I feel geometric interpretaion is still easiest here
since it's only degree 2
so lines and parabolas
well does it really change if I consider the same subspace but inside R[x]_17 ?
it does right?
because I can not longer easily visualise R[x]_17 polynomials
unless I am looking for counterexampels
the higher degree polys could be potential sources of counterexamples
oh for C.
maybe not
ah
I guess it doesn't really matter in this question
Wait a secondd
For the zero vector question, I feel like it doesn't really make sense
@kind hawk I'm adding a zero vector with a zero scalar
right? ...
yet the answer of -2 is apparently still correct
you need that 0_v+u = u for all u
it turns out from the vector space axioms you also get that 0_R * v=0_v for all v
yeah
where 0_R is the 0 in the field
so that's what you are doing here
technically you are letting the vector space axioms do a bit of work cause you haven't explicitly shown that -2 satisfies 0_v+u=u
wai t
I'm still kind of lost sorry
above, with their definition of scalar multiplication, I will end up with 0_R * v + 2(0) - 2
and by the vector space axioms, 0_R * v = 0_v
so why am I able to do 0_v - 2 = -2?
am I not adding a vector to a scalar?
of which is undefined
well the vector space elements are real numbers themselves
so you are using them as both
but yes straight from the definition of a*u=au+2a-2 you see that you are adding au which is a vector and 2a-2 which is a scalar
because elements of a vector space needn't be "actual" vectors right?
not in the sense you are thinking of , yes
technically speaking, by definition "vector" means element of a vector space
wait
so for this question, would the answer be A?
B. and C. clearly appare nonsensical
and in D., I am adding a scalar and a vector ... in the traditional sense right?
because there is no mention of a vector space or field in the question
as in I can do so
because (u)c_2 is simply scalar multiplication of u by c_2
oh
oops
it's undefined haha
because I am adding a scalar and a vector
soooo, A. is the best statement?
why not 
it's a true statement isn't it?
Because as per what you said for d, neither side is defined (in a)

You’re adding a scalar to a vector for both, which you can’t do
ok so in mathematics
is illogical expression = same illogical expression rewritten in a different way not valid?
is this something to do with logic?
I mean in general it isn’t, at least from my experience
ok
do you know the proper terminology of why it is so? (so I can maybe go read up on it :> )
the cats are cute btw
whoever set them up has good taste
Hmmm I’m actually not too sure, maybe someone else can elaborate on that for me
but at least from what I know, you can’t do that

huh

AAJJJTTTT
AATTTTJJJ
JJJAATTTT

Just curious, why is “u” always used for the argument with derivatives?
Well your formulas should be for $\arcsin(u(x))$
ΣAC
but what you wrote here doesn't make much sense
But if I used x, dx/dx would = 1
Noted ty
yes
Fixed now
Personally i would do u(x) to highlight the fact that u is a function of x

hey, i was doing the demonstration of the trigonometry relations, and i got i little confused about similarity of triangles
so, i have a triangle retagle cos(x)^2+sen(x)^2=1^2
what?
Nothing
oh ok
Stop it razer
Wdym
Stop spamming your channels in other people's and interrupting
and another one with sen and tg, i think you get the drill. anyway, i was confused because i got cos(x)/1=sen(x)/tg(x). But in the internet is 1/cos(x)=sen(x)/tg(x)
are they both correct?
if not, how can i know which one should i put below and who should i put on the top?
when researching i came across images like
By using the menu bar??
where it seems that the biggest side is the one to be in the bottom part of the fraction
and if this is the correct form then Cos(x)/1=sen(x)/tg(x) would be correct
wheres my mistake?

do I take the arccos of 15/17?
Yes
oh ok
yes
to double check
is this correct?
cos(theta) = adj /hyp = 15/17
arccos(15/17) = approx 28.07 degrees?
1/sin of that = about 17/8
the sin is 8/17 im guessing
