if you calculate the area between 0 to 2s, what do you think that'd give us?
the area of the top triangle
Yes and what physical quantity does that represent?
but since its under the graph
so that means we moved 5 m ahead
wouldnt it be -5
the v is always positive in the first 2 seconds if you notice
the area we are calculating is over the x-axis
so now you know what to do next
calculate the area
from 2s to some t second such that the area cancels out our current displacement
by under the graph, do we mean under the slope/line?
like, the region under it?
or does it mean under the x axis
yes the region bound by the x-axis and the line/graph
sorry if my language wasn't clear earlier
so would it mean something like this?
heres a better picture
yes exactly, A1 is the area under the graph from 0 to 2s
cna it be any t value? after 2?
can*
before that,
to find the position or displacement that makes t=0, should the area after t=2 be the t value that cancels out the area between t=0 and t=2?
in other words, should it be the value that cancels out the area of a1 in this image?
in other words*
YESSS
ooo i see
after t = 2 the displacement should be -5
since after t = 2s, the v is always negative, that means that the penguin is returning
why -5?
so after some time it will cross the original starting position
i see
Because we calculated A1 = 5, that's why
ohh and its -5 because it cacels out the max displacement of 5?
YESSS
ok
between t=2 and 3, the area is -2.5
so should i add another 2.5s to balance it out?
so there goes our -2.5
since a1 is 5
this means that between 2s to 3s, then penguin travelled 2.5 m towards the starting position
what would adding 2.5s mean now?
he goes back to the starting pos?
after 3s our velocity is constant and it is equal to -5
how much time will the penguin take to travel -2.5m?
1 second
it is travelling at -5 meters per second
yes
yes please
so basically, first we find the area under the graph
so from t=0 to t=2
that area was 5m/s
but then it goes constant at t=3
between t=2 and 3, the area is -2.5m/s
after that, the velocity is 5m/s constantly
that area was 5 meters, the units
and since is 5 m in 1 second, then id have to do have a second for it to be -5m/s
and -5m/s cancels out 5m/s
so the answer is 3.5s
yes perfect explanation
so next time you can just calculate the area
and if the area is under the x-axis, that area would be negative, ie negative displacement, otherwise positive
then proceed according to the question
you too

is the symbol in front of ((x,y),(a,b)) a d?
also what does s represent and d?
could also be a $\partial$
martin3125
since the thing on the right of ((x,y),(a,b)) is a delta
this "partial" (which is also kinda a delta i think) can mean partial differentiation, but also the "bound" of something as Toby said
for example $\partial M$ would be the "edge" or "bound" of the set M
martin3125
definitely since this is the epsilon delta definition, so we require a metric d
ahh okay
also what does the upside down A and backwards 3 represent
does the backwards 3 mean all real numbers
the A means "For all"
the 3 means "There exists"
there is also an option for the 3 with a "!" behind it
that means "There exists exactly one"
oh wait
i meant $\exists$
in this case since its A3>0, its for all what?
martin3125
but i think you mean the $\varepsilon$
martin3125
so here we could also write: $\forall\varepsilon >0\exists\delta >0: (0<d((x,y),(a,b))<\delta)=>|f(x,y)-L|<\varepsilon$
martin3125
which would mean:
"For every epsilon greater 0 we can find a delta greater 0 such that |f(x,y)-L|<epsilon is true for every x,y that satisfy 0<d((x,y),(a,b))<delta"

f(x) = 2/x
is it correct to say that
f c R² (c means "is a subset of")
If we look at the definition of a function, then it's not. It would mean that every element in R is related to exactly one element in set R.
But zero is not related to any element, so this is not true.
This is true:
f c R\{0}xR
but R\{0}xR is a subset of RxR, and f is a subset of R\{0}xR, then f is a subset of RxR. This is transitive property of "c" (is subset) relation.
But because of the definition of a function we can't say that f is a subset of RxR.
Or is it that, f is a subset of RxR but f is no longer a function because the definition is not satisfied, so it is just a relation.
So, for f(x) = 2/x , is this true or not:
f c R²
TLDR: Anyway... the thing that bothers me is this
If this is a function f(x) = 2/x
is it true that f is a subset of RxR?
If not, then it seeems to me that "transitive property" of "subset relation" is broken.
some set f is a subset of R\{0} xR, and R\{0} xR is a subset of RxR, then f is a subset of RxR.
what definition of function are you looking at that is making you think f cant be a subset of RxR
particularly, what is it about the definition that is making you think it cant be a subset of RxR
it can't be a subset of RxR, because in definition we say that every element from the first set must be related to exactly one element of the other set.
If we say that f is a subset of RxR, then it must (by definition) have all real numbers related to exactly one element. But zero is not related, so f is not a subset of RxR.
... or f is a subset of RxR but it's not a function, just a relation.
so the definition is telling you it must be a subset of R/{0} x R, which is a subset of RxR, i dont see the issue here
f being a subset of RxR doesn't mean you now must have (0,something) in its definition

I know this is a simple question but I get confused with what goes where, I would like some help with a couple of questions in 6 and 7
Okay what's troubling you
I’m fairly new to this log stuff and I often forget what stuff goes where in log form
like for example part a
Does that mean log base y = 3^x or is it the other way around I don’t quite understand
@timid silo
ah
okay
So 6a) log base 3 of y = x?
and for y= x^2 would be log base x of y = 2?
Ln is log base e
Just a different notation for that one
So
lnQ = x
In that case
Ah okay that makes sense
And for question 7 it’s just reverse engineering and doing the opposite
Yes the reverse of taking a logarithm is "exponentiation by the same base"
Thats the way i describe it
So problem 7a
5 = 3^x
3^[logbase3(x)] = x
In the nitty gritty of the algebra
Where does the 5 go?
This is the answer
I have a question, why does the 3 get raised to the log? I’ve seen that form before but I don’t understand why we do it
Because to cancel out the log
You have to raise it as a power
You exponentiate it by the same base
Alright that makes sense
The reason you show that is understand what you did mechanically to get from one line to the next
You raised both sides up as exponents

which question in particular are you stuck on?
Just in general
I haven’t done this type of question before
Where I solve for x in a log form equation
okay this would be a good start
especially for the more concise problems like a and b
well, how did you get the index form for question a?
you used the base of the log as the base of the index, right?
Yeah
so the same reasoning applies here
yes! now, you can just take the 6th root of both sides

Hello, I'm a Chilean student. I apologize in advance if my English is bad. I'm seeking help to solve the following problem (it's translated into English, I hope I did it well... :c)
While doing some research to solve the problem, I came across graphs (not sure if they are called the same in English), Eulerian and Hamiltonian paths, but I still can't solve the problem.
yes they're called graphs in English as well
and a hamiltonian path is what you want
It really is like a combination of a Hamiltonian and an Eulerian path. I need to go through all the points and lines.
you don't need to go through all the lines if i'm reading that correctly
between each point if there are stations, in the image only the terminals and the combinations are considered, but in between there are more stations.
oh right
technically you don't need to travel from Puente Cal y Canto to Santa Ana
or a few others
@icy viper Has your question been resolved?
I talked to my teacher and he told me that the answer is 6 paths, but I still don't know why. He also told me that connections can be made from any station (not just combinations or terminals)

Is there an algebraic way to form a quadratic equation such that:
- There are two positive integers as solutions when the equation is equal to 0;
- There are two positive integers as solutions when the equation is equal to -1
I've tried to form two equations with 4 different roots and tried to solve for anyone of them, but in the end I made no progress and it's just a mess and a bunch of identities.
i'm not sure about the second one off the top of my head, but the first one should be straight forward right?
i think the idea is to make it satisfy both conditions at once

you need $\sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} \in \Z$ and $\sqrt{b^2 - 4a(c+1)} \in \Z$ if I understand this right
Hayley
you need more than that i think
what about $-\frac{1}{3}x^2+\frac{1}{3}$?
tushar
both roots there are not positive. you're left with x^2=1 which has -1 and +1 as roots
oh, i thought they just wanted integer roots
you can just translate it to the right though
both positive unfortunately
simply $-\frac{1}{3}(x-3)^2+\frac{1}{3}$
tushar
wait this works though

how would I solve this question?
what have you tried
I'm confused with where to go
I know that there needs to be more than 12 days in this sample of rainy days
how did you get 12
0.4 times 30
right
if i write it as P(rainy days > 12) are you comfortable with this notation?
👍 '
are you also comfortable with saying that rainy days are bernoulli trials with parameter (probability) = 0.3?
not rlly
have you heard of bernoulli trials?
now i do haha
ok um
bernoulli trials just means they are binary
so either it rains or it doesn't
understandable
if we have a collection of n independent bernoulli trials we call it a binomial distribution
which is what you have here
we would say find P(X > 12), given X ~ B(30, 0.3)
ahh ok ok
do you see where they all come from
umm number of trials = 30, probability = 0.3?
yeah
if we have n bernoulli trials with probability k
then the number of "successes" can be described by a binomial distribution written as B(n, k)

I have a function, f(x), which must contain the point (0, pi/2) and have a horizontal asymptote at y = 1. However, I want to change it so that f(x) approaches y = 1 faster. Any ideas how I can do this? (ideally by adding a constant variable I can tweak)
make it something like f(nx) probably? where n is greater than 1
I don't know if this is cheating but:
f(x) = 1, x ≠ 0
= π/2, x = 0.
Yes
You see those two 2's, the greater the value the faster the decay/damping
mhm
the factor n essentially changes the rate of change of the function by a factor of n (when you differentiate f(nx), it is n * f' (nx) )
maybe you could use taylor series to approximate tan and then switch out the x and y?
I was actually just trying to do an approximation using just the function 3x^2 - 2x^3, but it involves me solving for y in this equation
the results are quite good if I do manage to get it working tho
wow how did you come up with that?
starting from the smoothstep function (modified to be from -1 to 1)
this can be chained together and stretched some more to create false sin and cos
then I divided fsin by fcos to get ftan
after expanding and simplifying, I got this

I'm rlly confused about lower and upper RHS and LHS estimates
So RHS is always upper/overestimate and LHS is always lower/underestimate?
is this for riemann sums?
yes
then not necessarily
look at this example
the left and right only really denote which corner is touching the graph
ah
I'm getting confused whether over or underestimate starts at the beginning of the chart when t=0 For ex this chart
t | 0 2 4 6 8 10
v | 0 1 3 4 4 6
if it was n=5, △t = 2 in my notes i have RHS = upper estimate LHS = lower
LHS = △t (v(0)+v(2)+v(4)+v(6)+v(8)) and
RHS = △t (v(2)+v(4)+v(6)+v(8)+v(10))
but for all the practice problems i've done i've followed that generally and keep having to swap my answers for LHS and RHS for the correct answer. How do you know which formula to use? Are those formulas correct for RHS and LHS or are they swapped?
What im trying to get at is how do you know which formula to use for upper or lower estimate? Is lower estimate always v(0) + ...
if the function is decreasing over the interval, left would be overestimating
if it’s increasing, then right is overestimating
okay
which formula is for overestimating and which is for under?
again, depends on the graph you’re dealing with
look at what tan and i said
Okay

a11 = 10 + (11 - 1) * 25

i did this
What is the formula for $a_n$ ?
.enemagneto
a11 = a1 + (n - 1) * d
?
a11 is the 11th term of the sequence,
- a1 is the 1st term of the sequence,
- n is the position of the term,
- d is the common difference between consecutive terms.

Can someone help me with 10a? I have done a little bit so far but It’s a little messy and I don’t know where to continue
@slim garnet Has your question been resolved?

@slim garnet Has your question been resolved?
Yup
The angle on the top is 115
Because they are supplementary
I got my teacher to do it
Thanks for your time

am lost on how to do this
i have 0 clue
well i know that radius of circle=sqrt(13) and center is 3,-4
but beyond that idk
OH WAIT
no wait
its tangent
so you have to take a pointon the circle
but
hmm
yea im lost
I'm assuming that you haven't worked with derivatives yet?
there's an easier geometric way anyways 🙂
ok so how do we find the slope between the two points?
slope formula
y2-y1 over x2-x1
(3,-4)
but its tangent right so we cant use the cneter
no you'll see what we do
just the process 🙂
its ok take ur time
mellowdramallama
so the slope is 2/3
but $m = \frac{-4-2}{3-6} = \frac{6}{3}$
a_cheesefox
not dumb, just learning!
not dumb, just exploding
ok so, for now don't worry about how we found this secant line, but this is the line that connects the two points, right?
pop quiz, what does a tangent point to a line mean?
its the point where the line touches the circle
exactly
yay
it only touches that point specifically
something like this, right?
now what do you notice about the lines? 🙂
they are perpindicular
😮 😮 😮
wow
holy crap
we have the slope
rest is easy peasy
so now we just use the point slope formula with our given point on the circle?
a_cheesefox
$y=-3/2x-8$
a_cheesefox
close but your b is wrong
a_cheesefox
oh yea
remember to distribut the negative
$y=-3/2x+7$
a_cheesefox
bingo!
but hsould i put it in point slope form
cause the thigngie asks for point slope

Linear Algebra 2:
I'm completely lost lol. Brain is fuzzy from doing this assignment all day xD
I'll take any help I can get
start with the properties of a linear transformation
what are they?
can you verify them for both pieces of your piece-wise function?
that'd sort out 1.
Well I'd need you to explain what those are
how could you verify something is additive or homegeneous
additivity: f(u+v) = f(u) + f(v)
mhm
homogeneity: f(ku) = kf(u)
f?
sorry, accidentally hit enter
aha
yes that looks good to me
so now verify that your transformation here satisfies both those properties
I've never had to do this with a piecewise before, so this is kind of a scary question to me
which bit do u need help with
start with evaluating case 1
u, v, are in M_2(R)
then evaluate case 2
u, v are M
then case 3 is...
?
u in M_2(R), v is M (note that this is without loss of generality the same as a potential case 4 of v in M_2(R) and u is M)
wait, what is case 2?
u=v=M
where are you getting those cases from, I'm confused, sorry
well they are the cases from the piecewise function are they not?
you have to different input options
either your input is M_2(R)
or M
now if you want to verify these for two different inputs, u, and v
what are all the possibilities of where u, and v can come from?
well they can both come from M_2(R)
or they can both come from M
or one can come from M_2(R) and the other from M
I don't think that is a piecewise function. I think it the function that sends the matrix M \in the set of 2x2 matrices to AM (in the set of 2x2 matrices)
ohhhhh
i was about to comment the same thing
Okay well you can remember the part about evaluating if the function is additive/homgeneous, but forget the part about the cases
because our function isn't piece-wise
so ignore most of what I said
it's a bit weird to use the brace like that, hence the confusion
that's what I thought
Bungo
it's saying, f maps from domain M2(R) to codomain M2(R), and is defined by f(M) = AM
yep
ohhh okay i see
new notation unlocked
cool
well anyways, now that you know what the function is actually saying, just verify those two properties
i.e take two arbitrary matrices from the domain
etc...
So, would i do something like f(M1+M2) = f(M1) + f(M2) where M1 and M2 are arbitrary matrices
side note and unpleasant memory, i had an analysis prof who used the same $\to$ arrow to mean both things, it was confusing as hell sometimes, ok end side note and thanks for reading haha
Bungo
yep
and then check scalar multiplication as well
I'd cry
sigh... my profs notes are so poorly written, i have no idea what im doing
just so we are clear here, writing it isn't enough. you have to show that this equality is true
btw, what this problem is hinting at is that we often don't even bother making a distinction between a matrix M and the linear map that it induces
yeahh i know, but I just don't know how to prove this in detail
pick $$A=\begin{bmatrix} a & b \ c & d \end{bmatrix}$$ and $$B=\begin{bmatrix} e & f \ g & h \end{bmatrix}$$
austinu
now what is $$A+B$$?
austinu
now transform A+B
A+B
a+e b+f
c+g d+h
verify that it is the same as transforming A, added to transforming B
see how that works?
that is a superhuman effort, i'd just write "by the rules of matrix multiplication" haha
it is a proofs class after all though I am guessing XD
no it isnt even a proofs class
okay, so take f(A+B)
no i agree, it's safer and quite likely what is intended, to do what you said
its supposed to be lin alg 2
I got a B in lin alg 1 last sem
and this is making no sense to me hahaha
different profs though
there's always time to turn it around
yeah, im hoping so
Okay so I'll try to sum up what I meant earlier in a hopefully clearer way that you can try out on your one
so, f(A+B) do i apply M -> AM?
in fact, part (a) of this problem notwithstanding, you've graduated from boring calculation shit to fun conceptual shit
is M the same thing as F(A+B)?
We take our arbitrary matrices $A$ and $B$. $\newline$ We find $f(A)$ and $f(B)$. Then we can find $f(A)+f(B)$.$\newline$Now seperately we take our matrices $A$ and $B$ and we add them. Then we find $f(A+B)$. $\newline$Now take these two pieces you did seperately, and show they are equal. i.e showing that $f(A+B)=f(A)+f(B)$
austinu
So, I think im struggling with what the stuff inside the curly brace means
Still not understanding what the function is you mean?
yeah, like what does the mapping stuff mean
inside the f:{
yes
top line is telling you that
that our function takes 2x2 matrix and transforms it to a 2x2 matrix
does that make sense to you?
yep!
the second line tells you how it transforms it
that makes sense
it says that it takes this 2x2 matrix, and left multiplies it by A
that is the transformation
okay, so it takes a 2x2 and multiplies it by A
okay, that makes sense
that help a lot
I just had no idea what the function was saying lol
Yes, so now hopefully what you should be able to do here is (first just be able to see that this is clearly a linear transformation) but secondly verify it on your own with 2 arbitrary matrices.

I have a matrix question
do you have any thoughts on how to proceed?
ok, do you know the concept of calculating a normal vector by using a cross product?
well given any two vectors in the plane, if you take their cross product, you get a vector that is normal to the plane
does this sound familiar?
yes, yes
how does that relate to this problem
or like
how do i solve the problem using that

and that only after 15 minutes pass without a response
Do you have any ideas how you might approach this?
Do you perhaps have some better idea than just brute force
Do you know the Chinese remainder theorem?
how many solutions are there to 4A+8B = 2 where A and B are natural numbers between 1 and 100?
@tidal heart stop disrupting other people.
(yeah my idea is that he's going to get completely the wrong answer)
Bee he’s just trolling
<@&268886789983436800> @tidal heart
Anyway @sleek snow I don’t know the CRT so I’ll let bee help you
alright so
(i... don't really see how this solution is using CRT?)
Personally I’d equate them (not 2) then try find pairs that are close to Integers and check
But idk how good this method is
But I’m sure there’s a better method
13A-18B = 2, so 13A=18B+2, which means 18B + 2 must be divisible by 13
...oh i see the relevance of CRT
we're looking for a number that's equal to 2 mod 5, and equal to 0 mod 13
so 52
Ya I know
...wait hang on i'm now not sure if that's actually true
ah yes it is
so
13A = 18B + 2
if we subtract 13B from both sides
13(A-B) = 5B + 2
so whatever this number is, it's divisible by 13 because it's 13(A-B), and it's equal to 2 mod 5 because it's 5B+2
it's 5B+2
if you look at 5B+2 mod 5, the 5B disappears, but the 2 is still there

How to do this question?
Use fraction to represent 0.202323232323...
do you know in general how to convert from repeating decimals into fractions?
I know the answer but i need the step to solve this question
Does it has any step to solve it?
Or we could just writing the answer down?
Could i solve like this?
x=0.202323232323...
100x=20.2323232323...
99x=20.03
x=20.03/99
=2003/9900
,calc 2003/9900

is F(3) just -9?
Explain your thought process
Bc the area between 2 and 3 is 9 and negative
Not quite
Would it be 0 then bc its at y 0?
So whats your answer for (a)? (Trust me, it will make sense)
-2
How can you rewrite the expression in (a) using fundamental theorem of calculus
3
| f(x)dx = -2
0
Thats the integral
oh
oh uh F(B)-F(A)
what are B and A?
B is 3 A is 0
-2
You can find F(3) because you know F(0)
5
Yup!
Yeah whats up
when writing out the steps to solve it
would i write it out as
0 2
| f(x)dx + | f(x)dx
2 3
then write 0|2 out as
0 1
| f(x)dx + | f(x)dx
1 2
3 + 4
=7
or just as 3+4
😳
Your bounds are flipped but yeah
wait what
integral from 0 to 2 is positive 7, integral from 2 to 0 is negathve 7
You wrote the limits the wrong way round
Why?
i thought i wrote it as 0 to 2?

Hey Guys, calc 2 question: why is this function differntiable in P(0,1,0) df/dx and df/dy has 1/2*(sqrt(abs(x*y))*something else) for me so I would get 1/0 singularity -> so it would be differntiable for me
or do I have to check differntiable criteria with this criterium
@sacred violet Has your question been resolved?
That is the definition of differentiability, not a "criterium".
Proving the partial derivatives exist is only enough if they are also continuous functions (in which case f is C^1)
yes you are right
it's the defintion
but how can I show the function is differentiable in a point
.
Choose a method. It's probably C1 so you can choose
because as stated
Though then you need to do continuity checks
df isn't defined
for my point
but the solution says it's differentiable
have i taken the wrong partial diff
Actually looks like you have
df/dx = 1/(2 sqrt(|x|) ... not sqrt(|xy|)
But yes that means df/dx is not computable that way
However df/dx = 0 nonetheless by the definition
Can't differentiate sqrt(x) at 0 anyways
I got it because the y is in the nominator
Since e^z - 1 is still 0

I need help with:
what do you know about tangents drawn to the same circle from the same point?
that is correct by itself but doesn't answer my question
when you have a point and a circle, you can draw two different segments both starting at that point and tangent to the circle,
as DE and DF are in your picture.
what do you know about those two segments?
are they congruent?
i don't know, are they?
