@covert lantern Has your question been resolved?
ok with further thought brute forcing might be fesablr
<@&286206848099549185>
what
Yes it is feasible
This solution is optimal
It is not unique, you can change (D,E,F) to (5,0,1), instead of (4,2,0). Only these two solutions are optimal
damn
what was your process?
arent there like 38k possible? (although there is a fair bit of overlap
I wrote a code
Yes
38584
oh thanks!!
is it possible you could send it?
also what was the total runtime anyways
0.43 seconds
related to this?
I wrote it in Haskell, do you know that language?
im not familiar no
I will send it anyway
fun (xs,k)
| k == ' ' = (30+5*a+2*b+c)*(2200+3*d+2*e+f)^200
| k == 'x' = (30+5*a+2*b+c)*(2220+3*d+2*e+f)^200
| k == 'y' = (30+5*a+2*b+c)*(2210+3*d+2*e+f)^200
| k == 'z' = (30+5*a+2*b+c)*(2205+3*d+2*e+f)^200
| k == 'w' = (30+5*a+2*b+c)*(2215+3*d+2*e+f)^200
| otherwise = 0
where a = xs !! 0
b = xs !! 1
c = xs !! 2
d = xs !! 3
e = xs !! 4
f = xs !! 5
xss = zip (list 6 12) (repeat ' ') ++
zip yss (repeat 'x') ++
zip yss (repeat 'y') ++
zip yss (repeat 'z') ++
zip yss (repeat 'w')
where yss = list 6 9
zss = filter (\x -> fst x >= 20*2000^200*10^10) $ zip (map fun xss) xss
aux k [] = k
aux k (x:xs) = if fst k <= fst x then aux k xs else aux x xs
list 1 n = map (\x -> [x]) [0..n]
list k n = concat [map (i:) $ list (pred k) (n-i) | i <- [0..n]]
To get the solution I evaluated aux (10^700,([],' ')) zss

I need to create a piecewise function with the following constraints:
Atleast 1 compound function ( 2 component functions)
Atleast 1 composite function ( inner and outer function must both be different types)
Atleast 1 local max and 1 local min
And must be continuous over its domain.
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

Can someone help me with some more mathematical induction?
I have tried this a couple of different ways already, but I keep boiling it down to n/n+1, but I believe I am supposed to be getting (n+1)/(n+2), am I not?
wdym? like last step instead of cancelling out the (n+2) on the top and bottom?
why would u need to show anything after this?
cause I have to prove that is the case, no?
u showed that the statement is true for n=1?
and n=2?
letting either one of those be n, u also showed it to be true for n+1 in a general form?
does it not satisfy the conditions for mathematical induction...
tell me if im dumb

I think I am the dumb one here. I am trying to figure out what the heck I am doing, but I believe I am supposed to show them seperately, like prove p(1), then prove p(2), then prove p(n+1).And to prove p(n+1) I need to boil that stuff down to (n+1)/(n+1)+1 or (n+1)/(n+2)
dont worry abt boiling down to whatever
just master the method
u confident in mathematical induction or not?
hell no! lol I am just starting to learn it
the process is pre simple, but the actual math to prove it is whats getting me lol
I think so yeah. Just proving a few arbitrary values for n, then going to the end of the sequence and proving that the last one should hold as well
if all 3 (and possibly more) hold, then the equation should be solid?
I think? lmao
how abt this
u show its true for 0 or 1 or something
just one is enough actually
then show that regardless of what u proved, the relation will hold true for n+1 IF it holds true for n
thats what it does
assuming that its true for n
the formula works for n+1
now since it has already worked for say 1
it wil work for 2
3
and so on
like if it works for 1, and it works for (n+1), then it must work for every values in between?
so it worked for n+1 and 1
let n=1
it will work for 2
now let n be 2
it will work for 3
thats the principle
I still think I am supposed to prove that last bit though. Like this is the example from our slides:
I get what you are saying, technically this is correct. But I think I need to show how to actually get to that final point
u took the sum till n steps
then added the next term
u got a result that obeyed the formula
it is kinda confusing; i suggest watching a khan acad vid in 2x speed
u can ask ur teach tomorrow but if u take my work stop where i told u to then pk implies pk+1
yeah this def seems like a good idea. I shall see if I can find one on there.
I think for now imma take a break and come look at it again a lil later. Thank you for all your help @spring trail I really appreciate it

I am inquiring about a problem with simplification. I understand everything exept how (10x) got there and why? Can anyone help?
(x-5)^2 = (x-5)(x-5)
apply foil. mutliply each term with eachother
= xx -5x -5x +25
= x^2 -10x +25

Do gradients of tangents differ from gradients of secants
Secant is just (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) right
A gradient is a gradient. You can't say it's only half.
Huh
The only difference between a secant line and tangent line is the relationship to the curve
But they are still both lines
sec(x) = 1/sinx
tan(x) = sinx/cosx
they are different.
i dont think i understand the question tho
But isn’t the gradient of a tangent the difference quotient
And the gradient of a secant y2-y1/x2-x1
1/cosx?
oh the gradient of a tangent
in the derivative you take a limit of the difference quotient
which may not be a difference quotient
Is there a question you are working on, that's generating this question?
Well im studying for something but no question in specific

I calculated the area as 53.2 but the volume as 49.6
That's not possible right?
What did I do wrong?
In pretty sure I messed it up but in theory I just have to find the area of each face right?
And then add them?
right
well you have three side lengths, mayve call them length, width, height
L, W, H
two of the sides have area L x W
there are four other sides
what are their areas?
W x H
and L x H ?
i mean your work in orange is almost right
you did three calculations, one for each "type" of side
but for some reason you only counted one of each of the last two types
there are 6 sides total

Is this correct
how do you negative an implication
$(\exists \epsilon > 0)(\forall \delta > 0)(\exists y \in (0 - \delta, 0 + \delta)) \wedge \lnot (|g(y) - g(0)| \geq \epsilon)$
\lnot
oh so it was correct before thuis
ye
looks good
(if you remove the \lnot and fix the parentheses)
if you keep the $(\exists y\in I)$ in it's own parenthesized section, then the statement following that doesn't make sense (y is not quantified or accounted for)
maximo
oh wait a min i need to change that too
an alternative would be $(\exists \varepsilon > 0)(\forall \delta > 0)(\exists y)(\dots )$
maximo
just wanna say I like your name lol @uneven otter
consider the original statement as
$$(\forall \varepsilon > 0)(\exists \delta > 0)(\forall y\in\mathbb{R})(y\in (x_0 - \delta, x_0 + \delta) \implies |f(y) - f(x_0)| < \varepsilon )$$
maximo
why is this wallowing my parenthesis
this goes back to what i said earlier
you're quantifying the y in the premise
and specifically only in the premise
so y has no meaning in the Q of the P -> Q
why for all y in R?
I didnt add that in my
original one
this is a function from R to R
ahh
i think you should address it
another way to write this statement is
$(\forall \varepsilon > 0)(\exists \delta > 0)(|x - x_0| < \delta \implies |f(x) - f(x_0)| < \varepsilon )$
maximo
the x is implicitly a "for all x"
and we want to quantify it over the whole implication
not just at the premise
$$(\exists \varepsilon > 0)(\forall \delta > 0)(\exists y\in\mathbb{R})(y\in (x_0 - \delta, x_0 + \delta) \wedge |g(y) - g(0)| \geq \varepsilon )$$
Calc II Victim
ok
this comes from analysis and typically people write $\abs{x-x_0}<\delta$ to represent the set $(x_0 -\delta, x_0 + \delta)$ hence why maximo wrote it the way they did
np
Blue Guilmon
it makes it easier to read for sure
yeah, i was trying to declutter to emphasize the quantifiers
tysm
whichever professor gave you this assignment
you really should thank them btw
not many people get to practice working with statements like this
my professor is such a goat
but ngl his assignments
be hard asf
compared to other semesters assignments
for this course
he's breaking it down quite well though and it'll save you a lot of headaches in the future if you decide to go into more theory and advanced topics
I would 100% thank him
I see
the typical way people learn this in the US is trial by fire
they just throw it at you and say "prove it" after only giving you a definition and doing maybe 1-2 examples on the board
that's how most introductory math classes are at the beginning theoretical level
then what ends up happening is most people can't even properly handle the statements like you're practicing doing now, let alone prove it
thats exactly the case for us. but he suggests shit ton of homework for practice
which helps alottttt
calc 2, what is your goal with math
like if I try doing these questions with just the knowledge I gained from lectures. I would have struggled alot
no clue im takin math rn because of computer science
well this is quite advanced
so this is for a discrete math course
I used to hate maths but idk university changed my mind
intro to math proofs apparently
yeah same difference
oh
the name is synonymous albeit a misnomer
but i suggest you do familiiarize yourself with this content, especially if you do enjoy it. graph theory and combinatorics are really powerful as a computer scientist
and understanding those requires you understand what you're doing right now
you could easily jump into a math major from a course like this, it doesn't get much harder than this imo
graph theory seems so fucking cool
be careful what you wish for haha
😭
^
definitely recommend no matter what you end up doing taking a few linear algebra courses, proof-based and numerical analysis courses/ matrix analysis
if you have the opportunity
eh i wouldn't agree completely, but i agree with the sentiment
also it's surprising how much calc2 has been doing for just this course. they've done some group theory and now they're touching on analysis. it's basically baby proofs for each but still
it is used across almost all fields these days
I think next year i have to take calc III linear algebra and Algebra I
damn i can't believe you're doing algebra 1 as cs
its a required course apparently
algebra 1? as in abstract algebra?
pretty interesting class, and surprisingly useful
oh ok that's just a proof-based linear algebra course
yeah
take a numerical methods course too if you can fit it in
after you've taken these courses
make sure you also sprinkle some cs classes here and there between all the math 
hey if you like it you like it, when I was doing my undergrad I took 5 math classes a semester my senior year xd
what the fuk
I basically took every math class my uni had to offer and started doing the grad ones
but that's because I loved it
anywho, does this answer all your questions?
thats insane I dont think i could handle even 3 math courses in one sem
yes thanks alot
math becomes a lot of the same after a certain point
Im ngl doe I hated calculus doe
this course is way more fun
and better
then the 2 calc courses I took so far

How do I do the 17th question y'all
there is a stupid trick
what is it
the left-hand side is a quadratic function of x, but at x=a, x=b and x=c its value is equal to 1
so the graph of y = (LHS) passes through (a, 1), (b, 1) and (c, 1)
By experimenting. It’s like trying your luck with small / "obvious" choice of number and check to see if they are the root(s).
ah okay
so basically ax^2 + bx + c but all the coefficients equate to the root?
i see
since we got 3 roots
is the answer D
indeed
alright
sorry i didn't understand this properly but how'd you know the LHS is a quadratic function of x
cus like if x = b then (x-b)=0
wouldnt that convert everything to 0
how'd you know the LHS is a quadratic function of x
it's the sum of three fractions each of which is a quadratic.

@glacial obsidian #help-27 message I cannot argue for this assumption philosophically...
is there any other assumption that would also be sufficient for making the conclusion true? (S(AK), AK(r) and r are just propositions and they are not independent, well idk if this leads to a contradiction, but I think I can assume that r and S(AK) are independent, because S(AK) increases the probability of AK(r), but it also increases the probability of $AK^{-1}(r) )$ and $AK^{-1}(r) )$ decreases the probability of r as much as r increases the probability of r, thus then S(AK) and r are independent. The $AK^{-1}(r) )$ is not relevant here I think, but I can explain more if you think it is relevant.
"I need to prove $P(AK(r) & r | S(AK) ) > P(AK(r) & r | \neg S(AK) )$
with AK(r), r and S(AK) propositions.
And I know: $P(r | AK(r)) > P(r | \neg AK(r) ) $
And I know: $P(AK(r) | S(AK)) > P( AK(r) | \neg S(AK) ) $
is this possible?"
Benne-girl
"this is impossible because: We choose a random number x uniformly in [0,10]. Let r: x is in [5,6]; AK(r): x is in [0,6]; S(AK): x is in [0,5]. Then:
P(r | AK(r)) > P(r | not AK(r)) because P(r | AK(r)) = 1/6 and P(r | not AK(r)) = 0
P(AK(r) | S(AK)) > P(AK(r) | not S(AK)) because P(AK(r) | S(AK)) = 1 and P(AK(r) | not S(AK)) = 1/5
But P(AK(r) & r | S(AK)) < P(AK(r) & r | not S(AK)) because P(AK(r) & r | S(AK)) = 0 and P(AK(r) & r | not S(AK)) = 1/5"
but if you assume the following premise, it becomes possible, but im wondering if there is also another premise that would also make the conclusion true
"If you change the assumption P(r | AK(r)) > P(r | not AK(r)) by P(r | AK(r) and S(AK)) > P(r | AK(r) and not S(AK)) then it is true
Because of this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chain_rule_(probability)"
I can argue for: $P(r | AK(r) & S(AK)) > P(r | \neg AK(r) & \neg S(AK))$ but not sure if this does the job
Benne-girl
I have two other assumptions that I can make, idk if they follow from the previous assumptions, but $P(\neg AK(r) | \neg S(AK)) > P( \neg AK(r) | S(AK) )$ and $P(\neg r | \neg AK(r) ) > P( \neg r | AK(r) )$ , idk if this helps

is this valid?
it is indeed possible to prove that P(A & B | C) > P(A & B | ¬C). Let's proceed with the proof:
P(A | B) > P(A | ¬B) (Given)
P(B | C) > P(B | ¬C) (Given)
P(¬B | ¬C) > P(¬B | C) (Given)
P(¬A | ¬B) > P(¬A | B) (Given)
P(A | C) = P(A) (Given)
P(A | B & C) > P(A | ¬B & ¬C) (Given)
P(A | B & C) > P(A | ¬B & C) (Given)
P(¬B | C) > P(B | C) (Given)
P(¬B | ¬C) > P(B | ¬C) (Given)
Now, let's analyze the conditional probabilities involved:
P(A & B | C) = P(A | B & C) * P(B | C) (Multiplication rule of probability)
P(A & B | ¬C) = P(A | B & ¬C) * P(B | ¬C) (Multiplication rule of probability)
Using the given information, we can make the following comparisons:
From (1), (2), and (6):
P(A | B & C) > P(A | ¬B & ¬C) implies P(A | B & C) * P(B | C) > P(A | ¬B & ¬C) * P(B | C) (Multiplying both sides by P(B | C))
From (7), (8), and (9):
P(A | B & C) > P(A | ¬B & C) implies P(A | B & C) * P(B | C) > P(A | ¬B & C) * P(B | ¬C) (Multiplying both sides by P(B | C))
From (10) and (11):
P(A & B | C) = P(A | B & C) * P(B | C)
P(A & B | ¬C) = P(A | B & ¬C) * P(B | ¬C)
Combining the above inequalities, we have:
P(A | B & C) * P(B | C) > P(A | ¬B & C) * P(B | ¬C)
Multiplying both sides by P(A | B & ¬C), which is greater than zero:
P(A & B | C) > P(A & B | ¬C)
Thus, with the given premises, we have proven that P(A & B | C) is indeed greater than P(A & B | ¬C).

if you prove that A > B, because you know A>C and C>B can you then say that you deduced this from these premises? Or should one say that one proved it from one premises or like what is the verb for this??
@neat sparrow Has your question been resolved?
i would say its a deduction ? maybe idk
that's what I was thinking as well, but not sure
<@&286206848099549185> maybe somoene who is a bit more experienced with maths might know?
Okay holy shit i couldn't make the slighest sense of the notations
This is fine, the greater than sign is a transitive relation
I understand
but like what is the verb that we generally use for such sentences? Is deduce fine?
um yes, thanks a lot that you are willing to help, but I am now doubting, thus how about I ping you again when I got everything clear for myself? Otherwise I might waste your time
No problems, thanks for the consideration even
might I ask you another question before having figured this out, in order to figure this out:
let's say I want to defined a set 'F(q)' which includes all propositions 'f(q)' that entail 'K(q)', i.e. that one knows that q. Could I say something like this then? I would like to know if one can use universal quantification over a 'proposition-function' like f(q) in which the argument q is the q over which we are doing universal quantification just before that:
$\forall q \forall f(q) { [ f(q) \in F(q) ] \rightarrow [ f(q) \models K(q) ] }$

<@&286206848099549185>
I believe someone else might be better in this case, I'm not really versed in this one
let's say I have a set of propositions {s_1, s_2, … , s_n} and I would like to express that the elements of this set have a certain property, for example that if s_1 or s_2 or ... is true, then if A then B (A --> B). How would one express this formally?
<@&286206848099549185> anyone around with some familiarity with set theory (notation) / formal logic (notation) ?
By the way, if someone doesn't see your question here, you might try #proofs-and-logic
that’s an odd way to write that @neat sparrow
is your goal to express the set {f(q) | f(q) -> K(q)}?
or {f(q) | f(q) entails K(q)}
Absolutely im kinda asking a weird thing
Alright thanks!!
What I want to do is quantify over an open formula
i would say forall f
The example is made up to ask about that
it’s like a distinction between f(x) and f
What is the difference?
ok i am at my computer now
@neat sparrow did you figure out your question or do you still want to talk about it

im stuck
consider: multiplying both sides by r
Actually hang on one sec
oki
mhm
6costheta
maybe using cost=x/r before multiplying both sides by r??
Makes a circle with diameter 6
You not only need the eq for circle
You also have to be familiar with
r = asintheta
r = acostheta forms
Those guys all make circles
With diameter a
woa
Center would be
You also have to be familiar with
r = asintheta
r = acostheta forms
Those guys all make circles
you do not actually need to know this
I said it wrong eatlier btw
you need to know how to convert between cartesian and polar
x = r cos(θ), y = r sin(θ)
it is for that reason that i suggested multiplying both sides by r to get r^2 = 6r cos(θ)
They want it in the form x^2 + y^2
i was actually able to go thru w this and get 6x = x^2+y^2
yes exactly

What am I doing wrong here
<@&286206848099549185>
try expand
not very helpful smh
can't we just substitute α + β with -b/a and all
is that a hollow knighht pfp i see
also i just realised i wrote alpha and beta as a and b in the screenshot instead damn
$\alpha + \beta = -\frac{b}{a}$ and $\alpha \beta = \frac{c}{a}$
numbpy (anti-glomed)
yes, it is. It's the little ghost
nice
mhm
okay so
i got the roots as
-a/b
and -b/c
ill substitute those
,w expand bc(x + a/b) (x + b/c)
yep
wait how'd you get that
new roots are -a/b and -b/c just find an equation that has these roots
yee
ill just multiply all that
yes
yea i got bcx + (b^2 + ac)x + abc
oh yes i did
only issue is that, none of the answer match
looks like we're supposed to have (a+b) instead of (b^2 + ac) as coefficient of x
I don't think they're same, are they?
nah idts
yeah so unless there's some trick involved that's the answer
so the options themselves are wrong?
aight
I really hope so

How can I simplify this equation?
(a, b and s are constants?)

Yes
i laughed sorry 💀
would it be possible to take 1-(cos(st) out and do stuff with it ?
@dawn trout Has your question been resolved?
ok lets be honest this cant be simplified
Okay
maybe i am missing some rules for constants let me quickly check
nah
I mean saying a, b and s are constants does nothing if no value for a, b and s are supplied
At least for simplification
Because here they could be variables for all I care 
Anyways you may shrink the term down in size and make it more ugly in the process
perhaps even harder to work with who knows
I mean you can expand the usual way
Put it all into their respective fractions and get something along the line of $\sqrt{\frac{2a^2 + 2abt + b^2t^2 - 2a^2 \cos(st) + 2abt \cos(st)}{s^2} - \frac{2b^2t \sin(st)}{s^3} + \frac{2b^2 - 2b^2 \cos(st)}{s^4}}$
cyrolx
and put it all in one fraction
the usual way but this alone already looks disgusting

How should I proceed to solve this question?
assume the initial amount to be a variable let's say x
ok
Now find the total interest in terms of x
(x * 5 * 7)/ 100
which is 35x/100
the total amount they're asking for would then be x+35x/100
Yes
which is equal to 6615
Yes
First make the denominator same
Noo
so 36x=661500
$a+\frac{b}{c}=d$ and $a+b=cd$ are different
I did that only
B-eard
Hint:||multiply both sides by 100||
it is
$x+\frac{35}{100}x=6615⇒\frac{100x}{100}+\frac{35x}{100}=6615⇒\frac{100x+35x}{100}=6615⇒135x=661500$
B-eard
or you can do like this also
$x+\frac{35x}{100}=6615⇒100\left(x+\frac{35x}{100}\right)=6615\cdot100⇒100x+100\cdot\frac{35x}{100}=661500⇒100x+35x=661500$'
B-eard
oh, right

How do we solve $\frac{(x-2)(x+3)}{x-3}=0$? Can we just multiply by x-3 and then solve the equation (x+3)=0 V (x-2)=0?
Bennxy
More or less, solve the numerator for 0 directly
Multiplying by the denominator is bad practice generally though, bc it removes part of your equation or expression
generally speaking you should ensure that the values you obtain don't make the denominator zero
that’s part of it yeah though not applicable in this case
i.e. you should be careful if you instead had something like
$$\frac{(x-2)(x-3)}{x-3} = 0$$
and not blindly multiply both sides by $\red{x-3}$ here
ℝamonov
Here we should get x-2=0 right?
yes
Could you explain why and how I should use \vee?
that's the proper latex symbol for or instead of your makeshift capiltal V
$\vee, \text{V}$

Can someone give me some tips/ help answer this question
a or b?
A
notation could have been better
in particular don't use the letter x as a multiplication symbol
but thatll do
now, you have here two things you need as input for the formula:
the radius and the angle
which of these do you already have and which are you missing
the correct answer to the question i just asked was "I already have the angle, but I am missing the radius."
not any complaints about how you dont know how to do something.
anyway, ok.
would you like me to guide you along in your thinking, or would you like me to give you one pointer and have you try to do it yourself?
Guide along the thinking please
I tried think what I could do but I haven’t gotten anywhere
I was thinking about circle theorem
But not sure about that
"circle theorem", singular?
Yea
to you, there is only one circle theorem in existence?
me: "circle theorem", singular?
you: yea
me: so to you there's only one?
you: no
anyway ok let's leave that aside
The angle OED looks like a right angle but I’m not sure if it’s drawn to scale
let's look into that further
what angles on the diagram can you see that you know for certain are right angles?
Assuming it drawn to scale. I would say OED OFD BCA and OAC
They all look like right angle atleast
no, do not assume the drawing is to scale.
Well I would say OED is a right angle since it perpendicular to OB
how do you know "it" (ED) is perpendicular to OB?
Well it because it looks like it is
no, do not assume the drawing is to scale.
what about the fact that AC and BC are tangent to the circle?
they are explicitly stated as such, too.
"circle theorems", what a vague reference.
OBC and OAC are right angles because they're the angle between a tangent and its corresponding radius.
"paddle"?
Auto correct mb
since ED is parallel to BC.
How do the right angles help me tho
again, consider triangle OED.
consider also the side OD that i just drew in.
what can you tell me about side OD?
OD would be 13.1cm?
Well I use 10/cos 0.7
you are jumping ahead.
i mean, sure, angle EOD is 0.7 radians, so OD = OE/cos(0.7) = 10/cos(0.7)
but there is something else you should be able to tell me about OD
Yes thank you for the help
Could you help me with the next question?
No b
A different one
This one 8

I have to find the area in the colored space, using the integration topic.
What have you tried?
I already wrote the integral that I think raises the problem.
Can I use latex notation here?
Yes.
$5x+2$
frosst
Just like normal
$\int_{a}^{b} (f(x) - g(x)) , dx$
Daniel H.
Yeah, I already did that.
And the values that I found was x_1 = 5, x_2 = -2 and x_3 = 2
How did u get 3 solutions??
I took -2 for the a, but I don't know which value fits for the b
Yes
One of the functions is cubic.
So what are you having difficulty with?
The left point (a) should be negative by the diagram
Then, you can observe that the diagram contains only 2 intersections
You can easily deduce was the right point must be
He doesn't have the full graph though
$\int_{-2}^{2} \left[ \left(10 - 4x - 3x^2 \right) - \left(2x^2 - 10 - x^3)\right) \right] dx$
Daniel H.
b=min(2,5) cause both functions are decreasing when x approaches infinity
If I solve this, the solution that I get is 160/3
Is that okay?
,w integral ((10-4x-3x^2) - (2x^2 - 10 -x^3)) from x=-2 to 2
Is it possible that this is the area? With decimals?
Your answer is correct.
Okay, thank u!
Btw, why the positive value for "b" should be 2 and not 5?
Is it because is a quadratic function?
So you found three intersections; x = -2, x = 2, and x = 5. The graph shows the area between two intersections, one of which is in the 2nd Quadrant which means that the left bound is at x = -2. The next intersection after x = -2 is at x = 2.

How to find the roots of a cubic without trial and error ?
I mean without guessing a root and then doing long division
Which formula?
Tbf Tartaliga's algorithm isn't that hard to learn
Just look it up, it's impractical though
I wonder
,w solve ax^3 + bx^2 + cx + d = 0
It looks ugly
$\small{x=\sqrt[3]{\left(\frac{-b^3}{27a^3}+\frac{bc}{6a^2}-\frac{d}{2a}\right)+\sqrt{\left(\frac{-b^3}{27a^3}+\frac{bc}{6a^2}-\frac{d}{2a}\right)^2+\left(\frac{c}{3a}-\frac{b^2}{9a^2}\right)^3}}+$\$\sqrt[3]{\left(\frac{-b^3}{27a^3}+\frac{bc}{6a^2}-\frac{d}{2a}\right)-\sqrt{\left(\frac{-b^3}{27a^3}+\frac{bc}{6a^2}-\frac{d}{2a}\right)^2+\left(\frac{c}{3a}-\frac{b^2}{9a^2}\right)^3}}-\frac{b}{3a}}$
couldn't even do the LaTeX
the formula is pretty garbage
and that's only one solution
to get the other two you need to use roots of unity
if you need the roots then you're just better off using Newton's method
I guess I'm sticking with trial and error fot now 😅
Couldn't find it

In numerical analysis, Newton's method, also known as the Newton–Raphson method, named after Isaac Newton and Joseph Raphson, is a root-finding algorithm which produces successively better approximations to the roots (or zeroes) of a real-valued function. The most basic version starts with a single-variable function f defined for a real variable...
probably should learn it tbh
Is it the same as tartaliga's algo?
nope
idek wht Tartalgia's Algorithm is?
It's a substitution to make a standard cubic polynomial into a depressed one, and then theres a formula that gives you the roots of a depressed cubic

are there asymptotes near to 1 and 3?
like that
sorry for that awesome drawing
but u know the idea...
like
the domain ends at 1
but the 1 is in domain
if i calculate limit to 1 from risght side it will be an symptote or not
i know there are oblique ones but vertical too?
nah they're not asymptotes

How would I go about solving this?
you could draw it
wym?
draw the lines |x| and |2x - 1|
you mean graph it? i cant rlly understand what your trying to say
This is a question from a no calculator section of a test
pen and paper
dude im not gonna graph it
the alternative is algebra
it would take too much time
lots of it
yes please
alright well
divide by |x| on both sides
should make it pretty easy
and also check the case that x = 0
its okay i found a solution
graphing it would take literally 5 seconds if you know what to look for
its alr
i just found out
i could set 2x-1
to the positive
and negative
of abs value of x
