polar fossil
#

it's monotonically decreasing

fervent stump
#

yep but on x-axis we have sinx/x

polar fossil
#

yes

fervent stump
#

so we have 2 functions, is it possible to say something about x and (sinx/x ^)-3/8

polar fossil
#

well, if you're moving to the left on the sinx/x axis, you'll move up on the (sinx/x)^(-3/8) axis

#

and vice versa

#

so if you want to prove that (sinx/x)^(-3/8) is increasing you can just show that sinx/x is decreasing

fervent stump
#

yep so it shows that as x increases sinx/x ^-3/8 increases as well

#

that's what i have manage to show since i used the same method, but is it possible to show that as x increases sinx/x ^ -3/8 increases at an increasing rate

#

something resembeling exponential function

#

like here

polar fossil
#

you can apply similar logic

#

to your ^-11/8 thing, i think

fervent stump
#

ohhh, let me see

#

wait, how do i apply similar logic here?

#

i am sorry just slightly confused

polar fossil
#

from this point

#

it's three factors, right?

fervent stump
#

yep

polar fossil
#

so you could split it up like - if they're all positive and increasing then the function is increasing

#

well, -3/8 is always negative and constant

#

so i guess you want the other factors to be negative and decreasing

#

or one of them to be eeveeThink

#

i'm not sure i haven't done this yet

fervent stump
#

i see thank you for an idea!

#

so 1st is negative second is positive and 3rd is negative

#

in this case negative signs from the 1st and 3rd should get cancelled out? right?

polar fossil
#

yeah so we have that that thing is overall positive, which we already kind of knew (the original function is increasing)

#

what you now care about is whether those subfunctions are increasing or decreasing on that interval

#

obv you can see that graphically but to prove it with calculus

fervent stump
#

first falls second increases and 3rd one falls if i get it right

#

actually sinx/x ^-11/8 kinda is the same function just with different coefficient in the power thing

polar fossil
#

yes exactly, and you can apply similar logic

fervent stump
#

so i guess it becomes a closed loop

#

oh i see

#

it turns in a rather lengthy problem, will just ask for the sake of curiosity, do you think there is a simpler way to do it hahaha

polar fossil
#

not offhand

@delicate drum Has your question been resolved?

umbral zinc

Ok

#

The friction coefficient is 0.8 for both surfaces

#

So just calculate the friction between the block and ground and block and block

#

And add them up with the correct signs

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@delicate drum Has your question been resolved?

Due to rope

Therefore it will exert only static friction

golden hamlet
#

u = <5,-8>, v = <-2,4> Find a vector of length 6 that has same direction as v. give the vecotr in component form <a,b>

golden hamlet
#

How can i approach this problem? any step-to-steps would be much appreciated.

ruby path
#

can you find the unit vector in the direction of v

#

$|\vec{v}|\hat{v} = \vec{v}$

warm shaleBOT
golden hamlet
#

isn't that should be v / ||v||?

#

not sure what that hat and arrows meant for

#

this becames 6 * (1/(2sqrt(5)) * <-2,4>), which becames (-1/sqrt(5), 2/sqrt(5))

#

not sure if i did it right..

royal basin
#

$\hat{v}$ is the unit vector parallel to $\vec{v}$,

warm shaleBOT
royal basin
#

while $\vec{v}$ is just vector $\vec{v}$ itself

warm shaleBOT
golden hamlet
#

okay, but i dont know how to use them as it never explained on my precal book or by professor

#

so im genuinely confused right now. by book i should do magnitude * (1 / ||v|| * v)

#

what am i missing or not understanding?

royal basin
#

neon said, "multiplying the corresponding unit vector of v by the length of v gives you v itself"

royal basin
golden hamlet
hidden compass
#

The unit vector $\hat{v}$ has the same direction of $\vec{v}$, but its magnitude is 1

warm shaleBOT
#

Alberto Z.

hidden compass
#

Do you agree so far? @golden hamlet

golden hamlet
#

ah, yes

#

i get that

#

so thus i can do unit vector * magnitude

hidden compass
#

Yep

golden hamlet
#

ok. so far i get the result of (-6sqrt(5)/5, 12sqrt(5)/5), could you confirm this is right or wrong?

hidden compass
#

,w 6 * [-2, 4]/ norm([-2, 4])

hidden compass
#

So yes, your answer is correct @golden hamlet

golden hamlet
#

ah, thanks. atm i was confused lol

#

thanks for your time!

in this i was trying by taking log and then converting from summation to definite integral

#

but couldnt succeed

#

could someone pls help me with the same

# errant lark !show

see first i took log on both sides

so it is

log p = lim n tends to infinity (summation from 1 to n of (-1)^r-1 * log (r^4+1/4)

now i am trying to convert it into definite integral by riemann summation integral conversion but i aint able to

errant lark
#

I think you should try to take log of P perhaps and simplify stuffs in there.

stark bay
#

like how

#

if you could pls share the solving

little valve
#

hmm

stark bay
little valve
#

bruh

#

ez

stark bay
little valve
#

I did from series

#

find its series first

#

then

#

no of series

#

then the answer would come

stark bay
#

can u send a photo of ur solving

stark bay
#

@little valve and @errant lark guys pls help, u guys are too good in maths, pls help

errant lark
#

Too good? I barely have an idea yet. Let me try though.

warm shaleBOT
#

Enemagneto

stark bay
#

how?

errant lark
#

I hope i didn't mess up somewhere. Lol.

errant lark
#

Log(a/b) = log(a) - log(b)

#

and Log(ab) = Log(a) + log(b)

stark bay
#

like if u could show the whole solving of it

stark bay
errant lark
#

Umm... I don't have my phone handy. Also, i did it roughly.

stark bay
#

i just put that to check

errant lark
#

Ah. Shit. I just noticed my mistake.

shell hull
#

What is the next step??

true summit
#

did you square both side in last step?

#

or what did you do there?

#

if you squared , 8^2 != 82
and (a - b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab

shell hull
#

Yeah

#

64/9+2=82/9

true summit
#

ah ok i see it now mb

#

you can take lcm of t+1/t

#

and form a quadratic equation perhaps

#

yeah that would solve it

shell hull
#

How can I do equations contain 1/x?

true summit
#

is the x in greatest integer function?

#

like does the big bracket symbolises greatest integer function?

#

or its just there

#

also first solve for t , then substitute t and find x

shell hull
#

I haven't really learned about the things you're talking about.

true summit
#

yeah , so the brackets are just for show

#

got it

#

i kinda have to go now , hope you find the answer

true summit
shell hull
#

I just know how [x] work.
Like [4.5] = 4

true summit
#

yep thats greatest integer function-

#

timid silo
#

Yo can anyone explain me how can I determine the z coordinate

#

Like the angle between R and z axis maybe 90+alpha??

#

Idk

polar fossil
#

do you have another angle somewhere?

timid silo
#

this is it

#

i mean

#

only angle ik is with the x axis

#

so like is there a way i can determine the z coordinate

polar fossil
#

no, and in fact you can't determine the x and y coordinates either

#

well, you can determine the x coordinate

timid silo
#

what about r cos alpha

#

and r sin alpha

polar fossil
#

because what you end up with is a circle of possibilities like this

#

if all you have is the radius and the angle your vector has with the +x axis

timid silo
#

What about this method

polar fossil
#

yes, that applies if the vector is on the x-y plane

#

you need three numbers to describe a point in 3d space

#

not many ways to get around that

wet moss
#

helpers will get angry if you spam

#

but i dont see anything harder about this question than the last one

#

if you were able to solve the first one then you use the same technique on this one

vivid flume
#

how

#

is line B = BC

#

cuz usually in triangles the line B would be opposite to point B meaning that line b would be AC

#

its so confusing

#

@wet moss

#

pls

wet moss
#

just draw a triangle

#

label the points a,b,c

#

then look at the lines coming from 2 points

#

and label the distances

vivid flume
#

But usually in triangles, the line opposite to point b will be line B meaning that line B or the value for b would be either line AC or BC

#

its so stupid

#

who would name line AC as b

vivid flume
#

i didnt ask for ur attitude on how easy the question is for u

wet moss
#

???

#

i gave no attitude, i simply guided on what i think is the best way to do the problem

#

that is literally how i did it

#

also im helping with multiple problems at once so unfortunately i cant write up a 5 minute paragraph to help

vivid flume
#

i asked a question

#

a specific question

wet moss
#

i really just wanted you to send a picture of a diagram so it would help me

#

nothing more

vivid flume
#

and you gave a general answer

vivid flume
#

i have to assume a lot

wet moss
#

there is nothing from this question that you have to assume

#

AC will be the distance from the point A and the point C

#

similar with BC

vivid flume
#

i solved it

#

thanks for ur "help"

wet moss
vivid flume
wet moss
vivid flume
#

"the length of ac will be equal to the distance from a to c 🤓 "

wet moss
#

there was literally no challenging part to that question

#

nothing hard to read

#

nothing to assume

vivid flume
wet moss
#

the lines are AC and BC, im sorry i still dont see what is hard to understand about that

vivid flume
#

the line ac is named line b

wet moss
vivid flume
#

meaning that for sin b/b i would substitute the length of ac for b

wet moss
#

i dont see whats hard about drawing that

#

even though the proportions are off

#

something like that would be fine

vivid flume
#

ok substitute for sin b/ b and right it like sin (37)/b

#

aint no way im teaching the helper.

wet moss
#

the previous problem you had to use the sin rule correct?

vivid flume
wet moss
#

sina/a = sinb/b

#

that thing

vivid flume
#

yea

wet moss
#

it is the exact same for this question

vivid flume
#

but I was asking what length would u substitute for b

wet moss
#

then having to minus it from 180

slim cove
wet moss
slim cove
#

Frankly you are not entitled to help here if you can't be respectful to the people helping you

wet moss
#

were you confused about the m B part?

vivid flume
wet moss
#

i dont understand what length B you are referring to

vivid flume
#

yk the sin b/b

#

for the denominator, what measurement of length would u have to substitute 🤦

wet moss
#

yes the lenth opposite to the angle B

vivid flume
#

thanks

sorry if I came off rude

subtle gull
obtuse pebbleBOT
subtle gull
#

I have like 40 mb remaining of data could someone explain to me what is k and n

#

And how is this rule used

ivory mesa
#

in this case k is any integer

#

though ur textbook seems to have omited it

subtle gull
#

yeah but why is it 0

#

And why is n 2

#

where do i find that

ivory mesa
#

because u can take take it to be any integer and it will be a solution

#

k can be any integer including 0

#

k=0 is just the specific solution

subtle gull
#

so i can use 50 and it would still be the same output?

#

it doesnt mention k in the question

ivory mesa
#

no it could be a different solution but it will be a solution

subtle gull
#

im now more confused

ivory mesa
#

for example what are the solutions of sin(x)=0

subtle gull
#

i dont know

ivory mesa
#

do you know the sin(0)?

subtle gull
#

sin0 is a part of the pi/3?

#

wait no

#

Thats 1/2

#

Sqrt3/2

ivory mesa
#

no sin(0) is 0

subtle gull
#

;-;

#

But the question doesnt have anything to do with angles etc..

#

or maybe it does but i just want to know how do i get the k and n values

ivory mesa
#

u can just select any k and n

#

as long as they are integer or in the specified set

subtle gull
#

Okay so can i choose n=0 and k=0?

ivory mesa
#

yeah

#

as long as it says "a particular solution"

subtle gull
#

but it says here k is a number below n

#

It says n is a value beyond k

ivory mesa
#

oh ok then the set of solutions does not contain n=0 and k=0

subtle gull
#

im afraid to say i still dont understand but dont get mad

#

The question just says find dimovire of (-1 + sqrt3i)

ivory mesa
#

what is dimovire

subtle gull
#

Wait no it says find the square roots

#

square roots of dimovire's theorem

subtle gull
ivory mesa
#

ah

subtle gull
#

De moivre*

#

My bad

#

oh wait it says if its a square root then n equals to 2

#

and k has to be a number below n

#

So that means i can pick 0-1?

ivory mesa
#

yeah de movire is to find the n th roots

#

so sqrt means n=2

subtle gull
#

ohh

ivory mesa
#

and k stands for which root it is

#

starting from 0 to n-1

subtle gull
#

so i can basically pick either 0=k and 2=n or 1=k and 2=n?

#

yeah

#

unless its says the first one

#

in which case would be k=0

subtle gull
#

oh yeah so thats why theres Z1 and Z2

#

To find the 0 and then the 1

#

right?

#

Im so sorry if i sound stupid my teacher is on vacation and i have to learn this myself from a textbook with barely any info

ivory mesa
#

oh i didnt even see it said Z1

subtle gull
#

Ohhh okay so to determine the theta in case theres a K we have to use (theta+2kpi/n)

#

And just find the solution for both k=1 and k=2

#

I got it thank you bro

hello, need help understanding formula.

obtuse pebbleBOT
plush creek
#

This is referencing a program called matlab

#

where it's only able to store up to 52 bits

#

and apparently using floating point arithmetic the fraction is simplified

#

but i'm not sure if m is asking for that simplified number or the number to overflowing

#

and 2^-6 doesn't seem right which is the simplified exponent :/

#

if it doesn't makes sense, thats ok

so my professor in the video said we factor out the X but how did he do that? how did he get the 1??

timid silo
#

i am solving for X btw

wet moss
#

Factor out the x from 4ax, you get 4a because you do 4ax/x. Same for the other, factor out x from x you do x/x = 1

warm shaleBOT
timid silo
#

are you talking about the negative “-“

wet moss
#

There are 2 terms, x and 4ax, when I say other I was referring to the x

I would like to have these questions checked. The point of the question was to determine if the sequence diverges or converges, and if it converges find the limit. I did have a bit if trouble with B because I wasn't sure how to take the derivative of -1^n

ehhh that's not a lhopital situation lol

squeeze theorem is an option

tepid merlin
#

how to show that there exists an additive identity and additive inverse for point 1?

The additive identity 0(x) = 0 and additive inverse (-f)(x) seem come out from nowhere. Maybe that's what point 2 and 3 try to show?

warm canopy
#

what else would they be? we're looking for a function g such that f + g = f for all f; i.e. f(x) + g(x) = f(x) for all f and x

tepid merlin
#

So when proving point 1, I can just write the additive identity is 0(x) and the additive inverse is (-f)(x). Am I right?

warm canopy
#

well you need to verify that the they actually are the additive identity and additive inverse, i.e. show that they satisfy the properties

tepid merlin
#

oh maybe I should write

(f+0)(x) = f(x) + 0(X) = f(x) +0 [We don't know 0(x) = 0 yet? Or I can define this way?] = f(x)
(f-f)(x) = f(x) + (-f)(x) = f(x) -f(x) [I don't know this yet? Or I can just define it this way?] = 0

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@tepid merlin Has your question been resolved?

you've been told in the bullet points the definitions of 0 and -f so you can use that in verifying

help plz

#

im doing the first question a

#

but keep getting 1,2,3,4,5

#

wut im doing is subing 1 into an

#

then solving

#

so

#

1-1

#

+2

#

2

#

then doing the same for rest

tardy epoch
#

You sub in n = 1 to a_(n-1) first

#

Then use that to get a_1

onyx turtle
#

wha

tardy epoch
#

a_1 = a_(1-1) +2 = a_0 + 2

onyx turtle
#

oh

#

so after i get the 1

#

i do another step

#

sry i didnt quite get it

tardy epoch
tardy epoch
#

Type equations instead

onyx turtle
#

like

#

i first do

#

a(1) = a(1-1) +2

#

which equals 2

#

then i sub the 2 in?

#

nvm i got it

id factor u^2+2u

#

easier to raise it to an exponent

#

don't see an easy way to do it

rich plume
#

I have a way

#

(x+1)^8=((x+1)^2)^4

#

and then substitute x^2+2x=y

#

@shell hull

shell hull
#

I was trying to make t and solving x by finding t.

rich plume
#

what even is that

#

$\left(x+1\right)^{8}=\left(\left(x+1\right)^{2}\right)^{4}=\left(x^{2}+2x+1\right)^{4}$

warm shaleBOT

$y^{4}+\left(y+1\right)^{4}=1$

warm shaleBOT
#

B-eard

shell hull
#

The only y is 0?
How should I find the other Ys?

scarlet gale
#

Well, both terms are nonnegative, right?

#

So, either both are less than 1 or one is zero and the other is 1.

#

So, you did the first term being zero.

#

What if the second term is zero?

shell hull
#

X =0
X=-2

scarlet gale
#

What is x here?

shell hull
#

$x^{2}+2x=y$

warm shaleBOT
#

Soroush

shell hull
#

Y=0,-1

scarlet gale
#

Right.

#

That also works.

#

You can also move one of the terms over to the right side.

#

And then do difference of squares.

shell hull
scarlet gale
#

What do you mean by replacing numbers?

shell hull
#

Putting random numbers instead of y.

scarlet gale
#

No, use algebra.

#

Move one of the terms to the right side.

#

Then use difference of squares to factor the right side.

scarlet gale
#

Yes.

shell hull
#

But I can't do Quartic equations holothink

scarlet gale
#

Sure, but there are four roots to a quartic. You started with a quartic. You got two roots. There are only two left.

#

What I ended up doing is expanding everything.

#

You can use the binomial theorem to expand (y + 1)⁴.

#

Or just do it the long way.

#

You'll get a factor that's quadratic.

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@shell hull Has your question been resolved?

shell hull
scarlet gale
#

No.

#

You're trying to get roots.

#

You need to either use an expression or have an equation that has the other side as zero.

#

@shell hull

#

You have y(y³+ 2y² + 3y + 2).

#

So, that factored out the 0 root.

#

Factor out the -1 root.

#

If you don't know how, let me know.

old isle
#

why are there no 4 consecutive positive integers that add up to a perfect square

timid silo
#

consider a random positive integer x

kind hawk
#

do you know modulo?

timid silo
#

1 sequence of 4 consecutive integers could be x, x+1, x+2, x+3

#

add them up

old isle
#

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x +3) = 4x + 6

#

so why cant 4x + 6 be a perfect square

timid silo
#

4x+6 = 2(2x+3)

#

can you figure out why 2(2x+3) cant be a square?

old isle
#

i cannot

timid silo
#

in order for 2(2x+3) to be a perfect square, 2x+3 must have the form of 2q^2, where q is just any positive value

#

so that 2(2x+3) = 2^2.q^2, or (2q)^2, which is a perfect square

#

2x+3 however cannot have the form of 2q^2

#

since 2x+3 is odd

I know it's a math forum, but I hope there are some physicists here. My problem is the following : I have a room with a volume of 75 m^3 and which is at a temperature of 15°. We heat the room with a tube which has a diameter of 80mm and it throws air at a given temperature of 60° and fulfill the room at a rate of 260 m^3/h. We have a volumetric heat loss coefficient g of 30 W/m^3. What's the calorific power that is thrown by the tube and how much time does it take to reach a temperature of 20° ? need help on this I do not know what to do.

It's what the room loses in heat

oh ok wait that unit makes no sense, usually it's W/m^2/K

#

since you lose heat at the boundary eeveeThink

rain forge
#

It represents the thermic loss of the room

polar fossil

okay so figuring out how much heat we lose (in watts) is a good step
do you think they'd be expecting some kind of differential equation / calculus solution or just simple algebra?

ornate merlin
#

convert 1/8 to 2 to some power

halcyon hull
#

the problem is that i cant make a power of 1/8

#

sqroot 8 is 2xsqroot(2)

#

so idk what to do

halcyon hull
ornate merlin
#

1/8 = 2^x

#

what is x

#

if you're stuck on that, then tell me what x is if 2^x=8

halcyon hull
#

3

halcyon hull
#

2^-3 = 1/8

#

wait a minute

#

can i rewrite it as -3log_4(2)

#

because log_4(2^-3)

#

?

knotty gulch
#

yes

halcyon hull
#

I DID IT

#

I SOLVED IT

#

-3log_4(2)
log4(2) = 1/2

-3(1/2) = -3/2

#

thanks

hello I have a pretty simple question I seem to misunderstand
if I have a function f: {a,b,c} > {1,2,3]
f(a) = 1, f(b) = f(c) = 2
and I need to answer true or false for this

grand sonnet
#

it says this is false but I think its true, cuz c is a preimage(i think thats the word) of 2
so f-1({2}) = {b,c} and c is and element of it no?

warm canopy
#

they're trying to catch you out here

#

c is in the preimage of 2 yes

#

but {c} is not

grand sonnet
#

oh damn this means the group is an element of, I was thinking of it as if it was this symbol

warm canopy
#

yep, tricky!

grand sonnet
#

haha yea, opps thanks for clarifying sometimes u miss the simple stuff

I don't know how to start this

#

came with wrong answer

shadow tangle
#

did you do the work and get a wrong answer?

viral tree
#

yes

shadow tangle
#

show the work

viral tree
shadow tangle
#

did you square both sides for your first step?

#

nvm nvm, i see you isolated one radical thats good

#

im looking here btw

viral tree
#

I did but then the x's canceled out

shadow tangle
#

what did you do after you isolated a radical?

viral tree
#

I got this x-5 = (x+2) + 1

shadow tangle
#

(a+b)^2 doesnt equal a^2+b^2

#

thats the same mistake you made in your last attempt

viral tree
#

what is a+b here I see a-b

shadow tangle
#

ignore the variables a and b, those dont relate to your problem

#

i was just saying you squared wrongly

#

when you square a binomial, lets say in the form (a+b)^2, you wouldnt do a^2+b^2, you would do (a+b)(a+b)

viral tree
#

like this?

polar fossil
#

looks right to me

shadow tangle
#

yeah

viral tree
#

how do I multiply 2 * - square root x-2

shadow tangle
#

i would keep it in the form 2*-sqrt(x-2)

polar fossil
#

yeah just write $-2\sqrt{x-2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Hayley

shadow tangle
#

do you know how to continue from here?

viral tree
#

does it equal square root -2x +4?

shadow tangle
#

no, but do as we said and keep it in the form -2*sqrt(x-2)

#

dont worry about distributing the 2 inside the radical, thats pointless

viral tree
#

what's a radical?

shadow tangle
#

sqrt is a radical

#

same with cube root

#

they are also known as surds i think

polar fossil
#

the surd is what's underneath... i think... idk that term isn't really used much

viral tree
#

I don't know how to continue

shadow tangle
#

ok, start by combining like terms

#

then we can go from there

viral tree
#

do I move X left?

shadow tangle
#

send what you have so far

viral tree
#

I have the last image I sent

shadow tangle
#

well combine like terms and lets see what you have

viral tree
#

I got 2 - Square root x - 2 = 3

polar fossil
#

do you mean:
\begin{align}
2 - \sqrt{x} - 2 &= 3 \
2 - \sqrt{x - 2} &= 3 \
2\cdot(-\sqrt{x-2}) &= 3
\end{align}

warm shaleBOT
#

Hayley

viral tree
#

2

#

what do I do next?

#

how do I multiply a number by square root x-2 ?

#

can I please have some one solve this step by step so I can look at it

polar fossil
#

i'm just trying to figure out how you got there

shadow tangle
#

hold on could you show your work on paper thus far?

shadow tangle
viral tree
shadow tangle
#

yeah somthing is a bit wrong here, first of all how did it change from sqrt(x+2) to sqrt(x-2)?

viral tree
#

I didn't notice it

#

I fixed it , what do I do next?

shadow tangle
#

could you show how you foiled as well?

viral tree
#

1 moment

shadow tangle
#

np 👍

viral tree
#

@shadow tangle is this ok?

shadow tangle
#

why did you multiply by -1?

#

thats what was wrong with it

viral tree
#

I didn't I just moved the square root number to the left side and it turned to minus

#

and I moved -1 left it turned to (1)

#

can you explain how you would do it?

#

I would benefit more from it

shadow tangle
#

well i suppose so, lets only look at (sqrt(x+2)-1)^2

#

using the foil method we would get sqrt(x+2)^2+(-sqrt(x+2))+(-sqrt(x+2))+1

#

simplifying we should get x+2-2sqrt(x+2)+1

#

then combining like terms gets us x+3-2sqrt(x+2)

#

does that make sense?

viral tree
#

I need to write it first its a bit hard to understand it like this

shadow tangle
#

yeah foiling is a bit hard to explain online like this imo

viral tree
#

I just want to understand this quickly so I can move on to the next equation before I go to work

shadow tangle
#

well search up videos explaining how to foil expressions like the ones were doing

viral tree
#

a way I can understand

#

using that discord bot?

shadow tangle
#

sure, gimme a min

viral tree
#

may I ask how old you are

shadow tangle
#

$\left(\sqrt{x+2}-1\right)^{2}\to\left(\sqrt{x+2}\cdot\sqrt{x+2}\right)+\left(-1\cdot\sqrt{x+2}\right)+\left(-1\cdot\sqrt{x+2}\right)+\left(-1\cdot-1\right)$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

shadow tangle
shadow tangle
#

if you simplify from that point you should get $x+3-2\sqrt{x+2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

its a method I haven't learned

shadow tangle
#

oh, how have you learned how to expand binomials in the form (a+b)^2?

viral tree
#

a^2 + 2ab + b^2

shadow tangle
#

oh, in that case same applys here
let a=sqrt(x+2)
and
let b=-1

viral tree
#

alright let me write it down and guide me what to do next

shadow tangle
#

alr

viral tree
#

I just dont know how to multiply a whole number with a square root number

#

thats it , its where I'm stuck

#

oh and I'll remove the root on the left side

novel grotto
#

with the divide sign

#

is it supposed to be there?

viral tree
#

its just a way to say I'm squaring the entire equation

shadow tangle
#

ok, we established that $\left(a+b\right)^{2}=a^{2}+2ab+b^{2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

novel grotto
#

oh sorry for interrupting

viral tree
#

yea

shadow tangle
#

we let $a=\sqrt{x+2}$ and $b=-1$

shadow tangle
warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

shadow tangle
#

if we substute those values into $a^{2}+2ab+b^{2}$, we get $\left(\sqrt{x+2}\right)^{2}+\left(2\right)\left(-1\right)\cdot\left(\sqrt{x+2}\right)+\left(-1\right)^{2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

shadow tangle
#

does this make sense so far?

viral tree
#

yes

viral tree
shadow tangle
#

how so?

viral tree
#

oh actually yea I understand it

shadow tangle
#

ok

#

are you good to go on?

viral tree
#

no because I dont know how to multiply the square root

shadow tangle
#

were not going to do that

shadow tangle
viral tree
#

I dont know what this means ^

shadow tangle
#

it means to the power of, for example 2 to the power of 2 is 2^2, aka 2 multiplied by 2

viral tree
#

how can I solve it if I keep it like that

#

no I meant what you wrote above my comment

shadow tangle
#

oh lol

#

lets just not focus on trying to multiply the square root

#

youll see why later

shadow tangle
#

do you know what $\left(\sqrt{x+2}\right)^{2}$ is?

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

x+2

shadow tangle
#

yep

#

and what about $\left(2\right)\left(-1\right)\cdot\left(\sqrt{x+2}\right)$?

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

-2 square root (x + 2)

shadow tangle
#

yep (also make sure to use * for multiplication)

#

and finally what about $(-1)^2$?

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

but its a minus 2 and a minus 1

shadow tangle
#

?

viral tree
#

that one is just +1

shadow tangle
#

no, that should be a +2

viral tree
#

but its (a-b)^2

#

and not (a+b)^2

shadow tangle
#

in that case you let b be the wrong number

#

b should be equal to 1 not -1

viral tree
#

so do I start all over and move -1 to the left side and instead solve square root (x-5) ?

shadow tangle
#

(-1)^2 just equals 1

#

so now we have $\left(x+2\right)+\left(-2\sqrt{x+2}\right)+\left(1\right)$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

but how can I square just the -1 and not the entire thing

shadow tangle
#

were using the formula (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2 right now

#

a=sqrt(x+2) and b=-1

shadow tangle
#

now were simplifying the expression

viral tree
#

ok

#

and whats next?

viral tree
shadow tangle
#

ok, now we are going to combine like terms

#

do you know what the only 2 like terms are in this expression?

viral tree
#

I see a -2 and 1

#

or a 2 and a 1

shadow tangle
#

just 2 and 1

#

so 2+1=3

#

now we have $x+3-2\sqrt{x+2}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

viral tree
#

alright

shadow tangle
#

now, we can look at the whole equation $x+3-2\sqrt{x+2}=x-5$

warm shaleBOT
#

Judgemental Snail

shadow tangle
#

i want you to isolate the radical once again

viral tree
#

one moment

shadow tangle
#

great job

#

now, we are going to divide both sides by -2

#

go ahead and do so

viral tree
shadow tangle
#

oh, not quite 4=x+2

#

4=sqrt(x+2)

#

the sqrt doesn't magically go away once we divide by -2

viral tree
shadow tangle
#

yep

#

do you know what to do now?

viral tree
#

I will square again

shadow tangle
#

yep

viral tree
#

thank you very much, it took a lot but we got there

#

Now im gonna do it again alone on paper and head to work
