Can I show you a table and lmk if it's the same one as the one above
sure
yeah
the table I gave is basically just the 5 rightmost columns
they have the same values
I used this table and did the formulas but I didn't get the same answer as the answer key (18.9 mpg to 20.9 mpg)
what did you get instead?
yeah
is there 83 on your table?
this one
Nope
I guess it wanted you to look it up then
since it says "use technology" in the question
I'm trying to find a table with it lol
This is what it shows near the end of the table
yeah, found a calculator for it, it should be 1.6634
which just about agrees with that table
I don't want to use technology because I want to be able to use the table only since we can't use technology on future tests LOL
I don't think they'd ask you for a value not on the table then
I hope not omggg😭
So it would be impossible to do a question that's not on the table, right
yeah, I don't think doing the integral to find the t-values would be reasonable, or expected of you
the calculator takes the significance level in terms of the area outside
so 0.1 rather than 0.9 for the 90% significance in the question
Could you explain again why it would be 0.1 instead of 0.9
My dumb ass would put 0.9 LOL
Will it always be 0.1?
that's reasonable, it's just how they designed it
so, we're looking for the values where the area under the pdf of the t-distribution is 0.9
but they've made the calculator such that you give it the area outside the region instead
Ah, I see! Is there another calculator I could use where I wouldn't have to put 0.1 and would just type in what's given in the question (e.g., 0.90 confidence level and 83 degrees of freedom)? Is the calculator on AlphaWolf the same? Would I have to put 0.1 as well?
oh, actually, it's a phrasing thing
90% confidence interval is the same thing as the 10% significance level on the two tails
that's why
If I put 0.90 instead, I'd get the wrong answer right lolll
Can I think of it as 10% because 90+10 = 100
yeah, that's exactly why
we have a pdf of the t-distribution, and we're looking for two values (marked in blue)
such that the area between them is 0.9
that's the same as finding the values such that the areas on the outside is 0.1
that's all that's happening
Could I just double check something and if I'm confused, I'll ask a quick question?
sure
I'm sorry for being slow lolll
Ohhh, thank you for the visuals!! It really helps a lot
I'm very much not a probabilist/statistician, so that's fine
But you're smart so hehe
Also, for this question, how do I know if it's one-tailed or two-tailed?
confidence interval indicates two-tailed
because it's like
interval is something on both sides
What would be the key word in the question if it was one-tailed?
uhh
can't think of a sensible example right now, but if the question was on like, dice throws or something
and you have an outcome that's either unusually small or unusually large
then that would indicate one-tailed
since you're testing only for small/large (but not both)
it'd be that kind of thing, rather than specific wording I think
Oh, I see!
Thank you again
I did the same method but with diff data and I got it wrong
I'm not sure what I'm doing incorrectly
I also used the website you shared with me
Df = 92 and significance lvl = 0.1
Two-tailed = 1.6616
what is it supposed to be?
ah wait
significance level is 0.05
it's a 95% confidence interval, not 90%
@meager elm Has your question been resolved?
Confused where and how they got > or equal to 5 from
to approximate something with a normal distribution, you need np > 5 or so
or the approximation isn't very good
Will it always be > or equal to 5 for every normal distribution
Thank youuu
How do we know that it's greater than 5
Is there an instance where it could be less than or equal to 5
you should have both n and p
just multiply them
you also require nq > 5 as well, where q is the probability of the event not happening, or (1-p)
these conditions are basically because the normal distribution is symmetric
so if p is too small (or large), the distribution is too lop-sided to be approximated well, unless n is sufficiently large

@timid silo Has your question been resolved?
hey
i can explain how they got dV/dx
they grabbed 125000
cube root of that
then input that into dV/dx
3x^2
50^2 = 2500
3*2500 = 7500
$V = 125000 \
V = x^3 \
x = 50 \
\frac{d V}{d x} = 3x^2 \
\frac{d V}{d x} = 3 \cdot 50^2 = 7500$
Katharine
i don't know how that answers the question they asked though sorry
yes but this formula only applies when x = 50
so any small change around x = 50
results in a change in volume that is multiplied by 7500
,w 40^3
i guess what they're doing
is they're taking the change to be -10 in x
and multiplying that by the factor that V changes as x changes
$\Delta V = 75000 $ if $\Delta x = -10$ when $x = 50$
Katharine
but that's a rought approximation
anyway
i'm glad i could help a bit
yeah that's what they seem to want
i don't think i understand the question honestly
because what i read is not what they want

How do I prove the linearity of the function $\R^n \to \R$ [
\vb x \mapsto \bmap\det{\vb{a_1} \quad \vb{a_2} \quad \hdots \quad \vb x \quad \hdots \quad \vb{a_{n-1}} \quad \vb{a_n}}
]
Basically, how do I prove that the determinant function is linear 
Those are column vectors?
what defn of the determinant are you using
Hmmm
I suppose we derived it using row reduction on an invertible matrix of size nxn A such that the a_(nn) = det(A)
Otherwise all we had learnt are just algebraic manipulations of that fact
It suffices to look at the case of a non singular matrix. Every such matrix can be reduced through a series of reversible operations to the identity matrix, which is diagonal. The det of a diagonal matrix is the product of its elements, so scaling any row or column by a non zero factor scales the determinant up by the same factor
Can we assume wlog that it is non singular?
Well I guess they either won't mention it in this textbook or will do later on. I guess for now we are rather talking about what you can do with it while taking it as fact?
I have a feeling this will also require a proof of the co-factors expansion of a determinant rightm
From your statement "the det of a diagonal matrix is the product of its elements"
Well I guess it's not necessary because there are other means than co-factor expansion
Like simple row reduction
Also think geometrically
If a box is 1 inch wide, 2 inches long, and 3 inches tall, what is its volume?
6 inches cube
Are width, length, and height not perpendicular?
They're
Right
Have you taken linear algebra
If you have, use that book's definition
If not, use Wikipedia
I'm taking it right now
Alright then will do
Thanks

Find the lowest common multiple of 210 and 240
Yes both these prime factorization are correct
How do you find lcm using prime factorization?
No , you forgot to consider the terms 3 and 5
Highest power of 3 and 5 is 1 here
Yep
now what do I do with this value
This is the solution
but for each pen
Yes 1680 blue pens and 1680 red pens
Ohh yes right
Yes

From top to bottom
why do they take the limits on the first bottom part
it's integration by parts
this is the formula for integration by parts
it says u * v
but it doesn't say anything to take the limits of u * v
like it's done here:
Because u have an indefinite integral in here
You're dealing with a definite integral
so when it's definite u have to do that?
hm
You have two choices
<@&268886789983436800> dont troll
\begin{align*}
\int_a^b u v' \dd x &= \eval*{u v}_a^b - \int_a^b u' v \dd x \
\int_a^b u v' \dd x &= \eval{uv - \int u' v \dd x}_a^b
\end{align*}
Choose either

Should I use the euclid algo for this?
try it and see
$n + 1 = (2 - n)(-1) + (3) \$
$2 - n = (3)(1) + (-1 + n) \$
$3 = (-1 + n)(-3) + (-n) \$
$-1 + n = (-n)(-1) + (-1) \$
$-n = (-1)(n) + 0$
then it would be -1 but that isnt a natural number
Calc II Victim
Hint: think about even/odd
mhm alright
I mean, your solution is ok in my opinion (instead of -1 you can pick 1, it's actually the same)
wait how so
The second and the third line are wrong
oh shit -1 - n for second line
In my opinion you should only use the first line
But the quickest way is to notice that n + 1 and 2 - n are of different parity @uneven otter
wdym parity
but wont I have to keep goin until r = 0
You can do that, but you can stop before too
Remember that what the theorem says is that gcd(a,b) = gcd(a,b-ka) for all k
And a consequence of that is the whole algorithm
Even & odd
alr ill try even n odd
I just realized I told you something that isn't true 😅🙈
Case 1: $n$ is even
Then $n = 2k$ where $k \in \mathbb{Z} \$
Then $n + 1 = 2k + 1$ and $2 - n = 2 - 2k = 2(1 - k) \$
Euclidean Algorithm
$\ 2k + 1 = (1)(2k - 2) + (3) \$
$2k - 2 = (k - 1)(3) + (-k + 1) \$
$k - 1 = (-k + 1)(-1) + 0 \$
Therefore, gcd$(n + 1, 2 - n) = -k + 1$
brah so this is wrong?
Calc II Victim
So please ignore my messages completely
Sorry for that 😫
2k - 2 instead of 2 - 2k
all good but r u suggesting that I shouldnt divide it into two cases
odd n even
I don't think that helps
I was thinking about another thing but figured out it doesn't hold
Try this
I dont rlly understand that
If you have two numbers a and b (like for example n+1 and 2-n), then gcd(a,b) equals gcd(a,b+a) and gcd(a,b+2a) and gcd(a,b+3a) et cetera
gcd(a,b) = gcd(a,b+ka) for all k
so basically gcd(n + 1, 2 - n) = gcd(n + 1, 2 - n + k(n + 1)) ?
Yes
and then I should use the euclid algo on that?
First find what is 2 - n + k(n + 1) for some values of k
k is a natural number right?
or any integer?
Any integer
so k = 2k + (k-1)n ?
If $k = 0$ then $2 - n + k(n + 1) = 2 - n$
$\$
If $k = 1$ then $2 - n + k(n + 1) = 3$
$\$
If $k = 2$ then $2 - n + k(n + 1) = 4 + n$
$\$
If $k = 3$ then $2 - n + k(n + 1) = 5 + 2n$
$\$
If $k = 4$ then $2 - n + k(n + 1) = 6 + 3n$
Calc II Victim
i meant (2 + k) + (k-1)n
I don't understand
wait what did u want me to do
One of these is very interesting
shit
Well, if d = gcd(a,b), then d divides both a and b right?
because I cant say 3 what if n = 1
So the answer must divide 3
(And n+1, but let's forget that)
And what numbers divide 3?
3,, 6, 9, 12, ....
3 divides these numbers
But what numbers divide 3?
lol
then n + 1 should be a multiple of 3
Not necessarily
Remember, we want to find gcd(n+1,2-n) = gcd(n+1,3)
And we know it is a divisor of 3
So what numbers could it be?
1 or 3?
Yes
omg wait
i rhought
the question
was askion for what values could n be
my fault

well either take a clear picture of the question or type it
I can't read from that image
me when i wake up in the car after a long trip and i look at the car infront of me and the backlights
LMFAO SO REAL
You didn't evaluate the derivative at t=1
thats what I was thinking lol
ohh
do you know what the tangent represents? it describes the line that passes through a certain point with the same derivative as the original function (in this case 3d function)

Guys, I fear that I won't be able to have capacity to realise this myself during test
nor can i comprehend why xi and p1 didnt simply change places
as is always done in inverse of function up untill I saw this
is this some sort of a rule?
f(x) and x(f)
fr
The left side are functions
First one says what is x in terms of p?
The second one says what is p in terms of x?
no like
i just say
we just looking for p(x)
in this task
but first we get x(p)
so end of the task is transform x(p) to p(x)
but in this case
I dont understand the transformation
because always variables simlpy change place
Give me a moment
hmmmm
x is in terms of p
But if you look closely from p’s perspective
It’s in terms of x
Like this, y is still a function of x
Even though y isn’t by itself
Hmmmmm
Just like here, p is a function of x even though it’s got a bunch of other stuff around it
Im low inteligence quality
so i might not have understood the thing
i mean i get it
what u say
but not understand whole picture
I meant; why after making an inverse of x(p), why didn't x and p simply change places
instead of adding the square
and removing sqrt
is it just simplification?

ok so--------- x(p) = 8 / sqrt(p(x))
OH
The point is simply
to isolate p(x)
and perform math
Yes!
but
I saw so many times
when inverse function was made
2 variables simpy changed place
so i thought this is the point
🇮🇱⚔️Spiritual Warfare⚔️🇷🇸
Yeah because you’re looking for the inverse in terms of the same thing
Here you aren’t
im not from US&A
so i might not understand what in terms means
i learn math in croatian accent
f(x) and f^-1(x) are both in terms of x
Here you’ve just swapped x and p completely
Notice they aren’t in terms of the same variable
That’s actually a subtle difference I never thought about either

How would I go about solving by factoring x^2 - 1 = 0
$x^2 - 1 = 0$
Gauge12
Difference of 2 squares
?
whenever you only have two terms, you can use the third rule:
Have you heard of difference of 2 squares before?
(a+b)*(a-b) = a²-b²
1 is a square?
take the square root and see what happens
1 is the square of sqrt1
You might notice this method doesn’t work when you have a² + b²
There’s another trick but you probably won’t see it for a while
No no
x-1+1 so its x = 1
You need the form $a^2-b^2$
Frosst
You have $x^2-1$
Frosst
Turn it into $(x)^2-(\sqrt 1)^2$
Frosst
Then apply this formula
Gauge12
1
if you want to apply (a+b)*(a-b) = a²-b² and you have the term x²-1, then you can directly get a and b since a²-b² = x²-1, therefore a=x and b=1
x²-1 = (x)²-(1)² = (x+1)*(x-1)
as Frosst mentioned

I'm having a lot of trouble here. I'm trying to use induction but run into the following problem: Suppose $x_n^2\geq 2$. Then $x_{n+1}^2=\frac{1}{4}x_n^2+1+\frac{1}{x_n}^2$
I think one of the problems is that since we have terms that are increasing and decreasing with respect to xn, we aren't able to get a good bound for all the terms at once
@short hemlock Has your question been resolved?

is there reason theres the 10^-2 so that the cm's are turned into meters
you will need to supply the original problem statement
as-is we cannot tell you where any of the numbers in the second line came from at all
oh god low quality
ok alright
yes
the 10^-2 is there so that the cm are turned into m
Assume that the force of a bow on an arrow behaves like the spring force. In aiming the arrow, an archer pulls the bow back 43.8 cm and holds it in position with a force of 173 N. If the mass of the arrow is 50 g and the "spring" is considered to be massless, what is the speed of the arrow immediately after it leaves the bow?
there u go
That has nothing to do with what they asked though
wait wym?
it's a transcription of the problem
dont i need to find k?
Ah, alright
Apparently no
once i find k i use it in this formula right?
Yeah
why the inconsistent capitalization

Hello all, I have trouble with proving part (b).
do you know how to write down a generic linear transformation from R^n to R?
I'm actually struggling with that a bit XD. I think you'd pick a basis for R^n, define what the image of each of the basis vectors is, and then express the image of a generic vector in R^n as the linear combination of the images of the basis vectors.
well yes
like
$T(\mathbf{x}) = a_1 x_1 + a_2 x_2 + \dots + a_n x_n$ is in fact how EVERY linear transformation from $\bR^n$ to $\bR$ looks...
Ann
Oh I think I got it now, with the way that you wrote this (and with the hint given in the question stem XD)
Define the basis for R^n to be the standard basis, and define their images to be the components of y. Then any x in R^n can be expressed as a linear combination of the standard basis vectors with its coordinates as weights. Then, if you plug in x in T(x), the rest follows.
since every linear transformation from R^n to R arises by this definition, with just the a's changing, then we have proven that every linear transformation from R^n to R arises in the manner mentioned in the question stem.
yeah sure

How can I differentiate ln(ln(3x))
have to do multiple levels of chain rule
I’m aware I have to use chain rule here but how? Would it be 1/ln(ln(3x))
To start off with
well start with describing the outer and inner function
the outer function is u(v) = ln(v)
and the inner function is v(x)=ln(3x)
chain rule says u'(x) = u'(v)*v'(x)
So outer is ln?
$[\ln(\ln(3x))]' = \frac{1}{\ln(3x)} \cdot [\ln(3x)]' = \frac{1}{\ln(3x)} \cdot \frac{1}{3x} \cdot [3x]'$
Ann
@sage dagger and then as shown above you differentiate the inner
ln(3x)
which you can again do via chain rule
outer is ln(v), so it becomes 1/v
and the inner 3x becomes 3
therefore 1/ln(3x) * 1/3x * 3
So you are multiplying by the derivative of the denominator or inner function ln(3x)?
what's with this black band that is 5 times taller than the image itself
yes i am multiplying by the derivative of the inner function
Don’t ask
as one ALWAYS does with the chain rule
ALWAYS, NO EXCEPTIONS, THAT'S HOW THE CHAIN RULE WORKS.
I think here is the step that's unclear
Isn’t the derivative of ln3x = 1/x and not 1/3x * [3x]’
well just apply chain rule
outer function is ln(v)
inner is 3x
do you claim these are not the same thing? yes/no
i haven’t done the math of it yet
well then do it
therefore: [ln(3x)]' = 1/3x * 3
Ok I checked and it is
ok, do you still want to go pedant on me for not writing it as 1/x immediately
yop
integrate it if you don't trust us ;)
i would if I knew integration 
ln(sec(x) + tan(x)) what about this one how should I approach this
I have an idea maybe
ln(sec(x)) + ln(tan(x))
separate it into that and differentiate from there
Idk if that would help me or make it easier
But maybe I think it will
riemann
ln(secx*tanx(x))
congratulations you made an even worse mistake

no, $\sec(x) + \tan(x) \neq \sec(x) \cdot \tan(x) \cdot x$
Ann
@tardy epoch confusing directions
I put ln
ln is a one-to-one function.
But log rules says
log rules says what
You want more logs actually
ln(x) + ln(y) = ln(x*y)
do you or do you not want to double down on your claim that
ln(sec(x) + tan(x)) = ln(sec(x) * tan(x) * x)?
"Yes, I am doubling down" or "No, I am backing off"
Yes double down 100%
ok, you claim that you are applying the rule ln(x) + ln(y) = ln(x*y) to the expression ln(sec(x) + tan(x))
what are your x and y?
sec and tan
but ln(sec(x) + tan(x)) is not the same thing as ln(sec(x)) + ln(tan(x))
but I’m just reversing the process from ln(secx+tanx) so it becomes ln(secx) + ln(tanx)
What
Hm.
Result:
0.69314718055995
,calc log(1)+log(1)
Result:
0
does this convince you
I guess
yes or no
yes
k
so then we can’t use any log laws on this
we cannot
unless we engage in stupid tricks
but we do not need to do that anyway
chain rule works just fine
as long as you know how to differentiate sec(x) and tan(x)
$[\ln(\sec(x)+\tan(x))]' = \frac{[\sec(x)+\tan(x)]'}{\sec(x) + \tan(x)}$
Ann
1/secx+ tanx then
chain rule
But I don’t get where the numerator comes from
would you be more happy if i had written $$[\ln(\sec(x)+\tan(x))]' = \frac{1}{\sec(x) + \tan(x)} \cdot [\sec(x)+\tan(x)]'?$$
Ann
Actually I would have
yes they have
ok but do you agree or disagree that $\frac{1}{b} \cdot a = \frac{a}{b}$
Ann
agree
then what is your issue
you should be working towards making yourself fluent in algebra imo
I understood that operation I just don’t like the way it looks
Is this correct
Was that illegal
Why
would you like me to illustrate with a simpler example of the same kind of illegal cancellation
I could’ve sworn I did this with first principles and it worked
$\frac{13}{11} = \frac{\cancel{10}+3}{\cancel{10}+1} \wtfeq \frac{3}{1} = 3$
Ann
you may have mistaken it for something else
either way you have to go back to algebra because this is an algebra error
no I’m not going back there
then you will suffer eternally
you will suffer eternally never able to comprehend anything anyone ever does in math
no this is not a simple misinput.
what never happens to you?
false
you've done a lot of them on my memory alone
yo just did dawg
That was awhile ago when I was algebraically mentally inept
Misinput
blud needs to redo fractions
Hush
you are spending more time being contrarian than you could've already spent reviewing algebra

$\int \left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(2^x\right)\right)dx\ne 2^x+C$
LE SSERAFIM
Maybe it's just because I didn't learn it yet, but why doesn't this equal?
why do you think it's not
Derivatives are the opposite of integrations
So I thought it should become the original expression
you're going to evaluate integral of ln^2(2) * 2^x * x
according to the pic
and derivative of 2^x isn't not ln^2(2) * 2^x * x
it's ln(2) * 2^x
,w int (d/dx (2^x)) dx
^
I mean what you posted first and the picture from the calculator aren't same
this is why result is different
okay
I see
notice that
x * d/dx (2^x) = ln(2) * 2^x * x
and so
x * d/dx (2^x) - ln(2) * 2^x * x = 0
and you'll stay with just 2^x + C
Ohhh I see
2^x = exp(xln(2))

How do I prove that the co-factor expansion of any row or column is equal to the determinant? Meaning, how do I prove that, for a nonsingular matrix $A$ of size $n\by n$: [
\det A=\sum_{j= 1}^n C_{aj}a_{aj} = \sum_{i= 1}^n C_{ib}a_{ib}
]
For any fixed $a$ and $b$, with $1\le a,b \le n$ and [
C_{aj} = (-1)^{a+j} A_{aj} \textss{and} C_{ib} = (-1)^{i+b} A_{ib}
]
What is your definition of determinant?
The Leibniz formula is the only definition I would say I know
Did you prove that det is the only multilinear alternating function wrt columns of matrices s.t. applying it to I gives you 1?
No but I just looked it up. Also by alternating u just mean whenever we swap any of the columns right?
Yeah you swap two inputs you pick up a factor of -1
So that's one way to show they're the same just show laplace expansion satisfies the same properties
Showing it directly is probably a pain, I imagine it's easier to go from laplace to leibniz
(those dudes actually did fucking everything wtf) but I'll look up Laplace expansion
Oh laplace expansion is just another name for your cofactor one
Ohh okay
Btw @warm canopy
Do the Laplace and Leibniz expansions count as definitions for what a determinant is?
Sure if you want them to be

How can I tell that the radius of this circle is 4?
The first line is what was given to me and I got the center point of the circle from that
but how does the +1 indicate that the radius is 4 i dont get it
Make perfect squares on the lhs
what is lhs
oh yeah
now I maybe figured it out
wait a sec ill try i think I was just being dumb
It doesn't, when you complete the square, you have to add that extra value to both sides of the equation. So be you did x^2 + 4x + ___, you added 4 on the left side, so you need to add 4 on the right side
Same logic with the y

Do you know binomial theorem
yeah
Okay state it
what do u mean state it
Write down the formula for the binomial theorem
how
Didn't you say you know the theorem a minute ago?
yeah but how do i write it on discord?
Ah, right
You can write it on paper if you want
Its like ncr then the first term with the power of n-r then then second term builds up from the power of zero
if that helps
What the hell is that
A Lonely Bean
I haven't seen that before
okay
A Lonely Bean
Yeah, just expand (2 + 1)^n
its just a way of proving it
No substitution is needed though, weird
Maybe they meant substituting into the formula or smth
a = 2 and b = 1

This one is triggering me
I also tried arctan(y/x) = 5pi/6
isn't that just the slope?
I'm honestly not really sure; The rest of my homework makes sense but I didn't even really understand what this is asking like they never really explaiend what polar coordinates even are
I thought it was just like r = distance from origin and theta is the angle
so like how can we just not get the distance of that?..
oo
oml that worked lmao
I've been so confused
so is that just tangent equation?..
no it's just a radial line from the origin, as you correctly identified (?)
the slope of that line is tan(...) part
then it's just expressing it in slope intercept form
passes through origin -> y intercept = 0
so just y = slope * x
which is what u did
you basically just rotate an angle theta (5pi/6 ccw) and then draw a straight line

so they want you to use stokes's theorem, I see
and they want you to find the surface integral of the curl
Mhmm
can you write down the equation
uhhh
that's one side of the equation
what does stokes's theorem say that that integral is equal to?
X squared plus z squared = 16
