You can ask any question about integers in one of those channels. Just go into one, and ask the question you're stuck on. If you don't know how to start, say that, otherwise show your work so far.

topaz tartan
scarlet gale
#

No, you have to always have both sides separate.

topaz tartan
#

alr

scarlet gale
#

Like the left side will be 5a on the third line, but the right side won't be.

#

It'll be just 5.

topaz tartan
scarlet gale
#

Yes, that looks good. The only change I'd make is that all the lines right under the ---------- should have an equal sign to separate the sides.

#

Like 5a = 5 on the third line.

#

But aside from that, that looks good.

topaz tartan
#

alr

#

wait but

scarlet gale
#

Also, I assume those as on the right are erased.

topaz tartan
#

why does 5a / 5 have to be seperate from 5 / 5

scarlet gale
#

Because you need to know what's on both sides. If you mix them up, you can get things wrong.

#
5a + 2 = 7
   - 2   -2
-----------
5a     = 5
÷ 5    ÷ 5
-----------
 a     = 1
topaz tartan
#

alr

#

i think i sorta got it

scarlet gale
#

Like that.

#

That way, you always know the current status of both sides.

topaz tartan
#

k

scarlet gale
#

Because they'll be different from each other, so you have to keep them separate so things don't get confusing.

#

But other than how to write it, the way is to think about how you'd calculate the side with the variable on it.

topaz tartan
#

alr

scarlet gale
#

Like here, start with a, then:

1. Multiply by 5
2. Add 2

Then, your steps to isolate it will be backwards and opposite of that:

1. Subtract 2 from both sides
2. Divide both sides by 5
#

So, that's how you figure out the two steps to do in your two-step problems.

#

Three-step problems are the same kind of thing.

#

And so on.

topaz tartan
scarlet gale
#

To get the normal forwards steps, you look only at the side of the equation with the variable in it.

#

Then, you figure out how you'd calculate it.

#

Then, the backwards opposite version will deal with your equation.

#

You do the backwards opposite steps to both sides of your equation.

#

Then, you get the variable isolated on one side.

topaz tartan
#

yeah this is...

#

becoming harder to understand

#

hold on

#

can i state the steps again

#

in this equation

scarlet gale
#

Sure.

topaz tartan
#

5a+2=7

#

uh

#

2-2

#

0

#

7-2

#

5

#

5a / 5 = a

#

5-5 = 1

scarlet gale
#

Yes, that looks good.

topaz tartan
#

so thats everything to do?

scarlet gale
#

Yes, those are the steps.

#

And as you can see, you have a isolated by itself on one side.

#

Then, you can check your work.

topaz tartan
#

alr

#

ty

scarlet gale
#

To do that, all you have to do is write 5a + 2. Then you fill in a with 1.

#

5(1) + 2

#

Then you see if that's 7.

#

Then you know you got the right answer if it is.

#

Or at least you're more sure.

topaz tartan
#

ty

scarlet gale
#

No problem.

topaz tartan
#

alr ima go

#

peace

scarlet gale
#

OK, have a good day.

how the heck

obtuse pebbleBOT
timid silo
#

are you supposed to figure out how to do integral of cscx on your own

#

i just saw the solution

#

how are u supposed to know that u need to multiply (cscx+cotx) to both numerator and denominator

tough bolt
#

Did your textbook provide the solution to the integral of sec x?

timid silo
#

yes, ln abs value secx + tanx i think

tough bolt
#

The integral of csc x is similar

timid silo
#

oh. so it's a memorization thing? they just wanted us to figure out the proof basically?

tough bolt
#

Who are "they"?

timid silo
#

the people who wrote the textbook

tough bolt
#

Ok

timid silo
#

i just am worried if i see a problem that requires i solution like that on a test im just screwed

harsh remnant
#

Don't you use IBP for cscx?

timid silo
tough bolt
harsh remnant
timid silo
tough bolt
#

Analogous means that something is similar to the other thing

#

And analogy is the noun of analogous

timid silo
tough bolt
#

For example, csc^2 x=1+cot^2 x is analogous to sec^2 x=1+tan^2 x

harsh remnant
#

mb sry

timid silo
#

what if it was another problem tho where there was no analogous?

#

at least not one that was taught

#

like if it had asked integral secx without teaching cscx first

tough bolt
#

I've only encountered questions like these in challenge problems

timid silo
tough bolt
timid silo
#

like is it something u can develop the ability to do u think or no?

tough bolt
timid silo
#

hmm ok

timid silo
# tough bolt Yes

is it rare or common for u to figure out a theorem or rule before looking at it

tough bolt
#

For example independently finding out about the product rule or something?

timid silo
#

yes

tough bolt
#

I don't think that's ever happened to me before

timid silo
#

dang...

#

must have been hard to make those then ig

#

alr thx a lot of the info

#

and patience

zealous dawn
#

Hi, I'm trying to solve this problem, and I keep getting the wrong answer due to sign differences. But I can't figure out what's wrong:

zealous dawn
#

Once I take the integral of 1 + sinx, I get x - cosx

#

then I plug in the values of 3pi/4 and subtract what I get when I plug in the value of 0

urban patrol
#

did you distribute the negative

zealous dawn
#

Yeah

#

because then I get -1 on the right side

urban patrol
#

cos0 is 1

#

cos(pi) is -1

zealous dawn
#

Right, but cos(0) becomes -1 once I distribute the negative

urban patrol
#

cos(3pi/4) is also negative

urban patrol
zealous dawn
#

So I get this

urban patrol
zealous dawn
#

I forgot to write the parenthesis

urban patrol
#

no it is

#

x-cosx

#

x-cosx-(x-cosx)

#

x-cosx-x+cosx

#

3pi/4 - cos(3pi/4)-0+cos0

zealous dawn
#

oh I see my mistake lmao

#

it was all the way at the beginning, thanks

#

my eyes are too tired

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
restive ermine

1

#

: (

thin star
#

Can you imagine what's happening to the object there?

urban patrol
#

do you know the difference between velocity and speed

restive ermine
#

When velocity reaches zero

#

No idea what to build off taht

urban patrol
restive ermine
#

While speed is total distance travelled

urban patrol
#

no

restive ermine
#

No

#

?

#

Lol then I don’t know

urban patrol
#

velocity is speed with direction

restive ermine
#

Oooohh I see

urban patrol
#

speed is tbe magnitude of velocity

#

so if youre going 50 mph one way its velocity might be negative but its speed is still the same as if its going in the positive direction

#

more useful for 2d

restive ermine
#

I see

timid silo
#

My physics is bad angerysad

urban patrol
#

I believe there's a typo

#

I think its supposed to say +x

#

but yeah D is really the only answer

restive ermine
#

So here’s the thing

timid silo
#

Alrighty :3

restive ermine
#

I also have this up on chegg

#

It’s not saying d

#

I honestly agree with y’all

#

In

#

Saying it’s d

#

But cheggs throwing me off a bit

urban patrol
#

real people > chegg

timid silo
#

I guess he's not real

restive ermine
thin star
#

What does chegg say?

#

I agree it's d btw

timid silo
thin star
restive ermine
#

Pls I had to do a double take

placid portal
#

for the function f(x)= -2x^2 -8x -10, find the slope of the tangent line at x=-10

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

Please don't occupy multiple help channels.

placid portal
#

just worked on one of these and did it correctlly

nocturne minnow
#

Please close your previous channel using .close before opening a new one

placid portal
#

ah

#

wait it is closed tho

hexed gull
placid portal
#

i did the exact same thing

hexed gull
#

kk

placid portal
#

got a bad answer tho

#

so deriviative was

#

-4x -8

hexed gull
#

ys

placid portal
#

then did -4(-10)-8 which was 32

hexed gull
#

yes

placid portal
#

and it says its wrong

#

wait

#

deltamath was tripping balls

hexed gull
placid portal
#

yep

hexed gull
#

because the slope would be 32

placid portal
#

word for word

#

lemme see if it doesnt want me to solve and just wants the derivitive

#

ok weird

#

i got it wrong but it had ln3 in there for some reason

#

that makes 0 sense

#

we were right tho ????

hexed gull
#

yes, 32 is right

placid portal
#

the answer said lim h->0 -2(x+h)^2-ln(3)8x-10?

#

got me confused

#

anyways

placid portal
#

we were right

#

idk what that answer was on

hexed gull
#

maybe incorrectly copied from another task

placid portal
#

very odd

hexed gull
placid portal
#

anyways i need help with derivatives and fractions cause that stuff is hard

#

-3/4 x^-3 -1/3 x^4 +4/5 x +2/3 x^3

#

wants f''

#

so i know how to find f''

#

im just confused with how you multiply fractions lmao

hexed gull
#

let me write in desmos so it's less clumsy

#

k so start with f'

#

reduce all exponents by 1

#

and multiply by the exponents

placid portal
#

(-3x^2) (4x^3) (3x^2)

hexed gull
#

I'll put the answers here:

placid portal
#

then so do the fractions come in after that?

hexed gull
placid portal
#

like i have my f'

hexed gull
#

reduce exponents by 1 and multiply by them

placid portal
#

ok so our f' is different

#

how d

#

OHHH

#

the first one is negative

#

wild

#

but still i have no idea how to multiply fractions lmao

hexed gull
#

which one for instance

placid portal
#

lets start with the first one

hexed gull
#

-3/4 x^(-3)

placid portal
#

for me my f' was -3/4 (-3x^2)

hexed gull
#

^-4 then yes

#

you reduce by 1

#

it stays negative

placid portal
#

o

#

-3x^-4

hexed gull
#

and -3 * -3/4 is 9/4

placid portal
#

how

#

ur right

#

nvrm

hexed gull
#

-3 * -3/4 = (-3*-3)/4 = 9/4

placid portal
#

alright i got that question then

#

i have two more of these i need to work through them with you

hexed gull
#

it's always the same procedure, just make sure not to overlook numerical mistakes

placid portal
#

for some reason i just have no idea how to multiply fractions

#

like if you asked me to do -1/2 x^3 i would be at a loss

#

would that be -1 1/2

hexed gull
#

a/b * c/d is the same as (a*c)/(b*d)

#

since you can rearrange it

hexed gull
#

becomes 3 * (-1/2) * x²

#

which is -3/2 x²

#

sry gotta go call

placid portal
#

why is this harder than anything ive done before lmao

#

ur good

rotund rune
#

how do I solve this question?

obtuse pebbleBOT
polar fossil
#

ooh there's some ambiguity in that question

#

can the secretary sit next to the president if they're not also sitting next to the vice president?

#

either way, place those three first and then the rest

#

because it's a round table, you don't really have a choice for where the first person goes, only where the second one goes

rotund rune
polar fossil
#

if i had to pick i'd say it means that the secretary can't sit right between the other two

rotund rune
polar fossil
#

so you start with the first person, let's say we pick where the secretary goes first

#

doesn't really matter because it's a round table so we only really have 1 choice

#

then we pick the next person, the president; and we have 7 choices here because there are 7 empty chairs

#

(depending on how you interpret the problem some of those choices may not be valid)

#

then the next person is the vice president, 6 choices there (again, some may not be valid)

#

and then the rest of them similarly

rotund rune
#

ahh alright

thank you for your help!

astral bramble
#

I attempted doing integration by parts but I got stuck in a loop of integration. How could I prevent/solve a problem that seems to have that loop?

polar fossil
#

hehe this is a very silly trick

#

call your integral I (capital i)

timid silo
#

the fact that it loops is what will help you here :p

polar fossil
#

actually no, call it L because you can actually see that as i'm typing

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

you'll have L = (bunch of stuff) - cL

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

yep! haha

#

it's like a backdoor surprise algebra problem

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

well, you're trying to find a value for L right? since that was the original goal?

polar fossil
#

or rather an expression for L in terms of x

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

your IBP seems flawed here

#

i should see coefficients of 4, 5, and 20 somewhere around here due to chain rule

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

can you show me your IBP steps?

polar fossil
astral bramble
astral bramble
polar fossil
#

you said:

I attempted doing integration by parts but I got stuck in a loop of integration
can you show me that loop?

#

feel free to take a picture of your work rather than mspainting it up

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

oh i think you're just not doing IBP properly

#

$\int u\dd{v} = uv - \int v\dd{u}$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

polar fossil
#

so in this case it looks like your $u$ is $u = \sin4x$? and you're taking $\dd{v} = e^{5x}\dd{x}$?

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

polar fossil
#

ok, so then what are du and v?

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

f and g is fine too

#

that looks better

#

i'd probably write that as $\f15e^{5x}\sin4x - \f45\int e^{5x}\cos4x\dd{x}$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

yep

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

there we go!

#

well almost

#

that 4/5 needs to distribute into both terms

#

are you doing this with a mouse or do you have a stylus of some kind?

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

ah ok

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

$L = \f15 e^{5x}\sin(4x) + \f45\lp \f15e^{5x}\cos(4x) - \lp -\f45\int e^{5x}\sin(4x)\dd{x} \rp \rp$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

polar fossil
#

is what i think you wrote

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

$L = \f15 e^{5x}\sin(4x) + \blue{\f45}\lp \f15e^{5x}\cos(4x) - \lp -\f45\int e^{5x}\sin(4x)\dd{x} \rp \rp$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

polar fossil
#

the 4/5 in blue is the one that needs to distribute to both terms there

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

yeah exactly

#

i always lose a bit of sanity when dealing with these fractions for this particular integral

#

so then what you end up with is like

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

$\green{\int e^{5x}\sin(4x)\dd{x}} = \f15 e^{5x}\sin(4x) + \f4{25} e^{5x}\cos(4x) + \f{16}{25}\green{\int e^{5x}\sin(4x)\dd{x}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

polar fossil
#

because we started with the thing on the left, did two rounds of IBP, and ended with the thing on the right

#

which has a copy of the thing that we started with in it

astral bramble
#

bruh calc 2 is wack

polar fossil
#

this is a particularly weird integral

#

because you like

#

find its value in terms of itself

#

and then wrap that back around to find an actual solution

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

that's how it usually goes :D

astral bramble
astral bramble
#

fml

polar fossil
#

?

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

uh yeah because you didn't solve correctly

#

look at this

#

the green thing is what you want to solve for right

polar fossil
#

great so solve for it

#

$\green L = \f15 e^{5x}\sin(4x) + \f4{25} e^{5x}\cos(4x) + \f{16}{25}\green L$

warm shaleBOT
#

hayley!

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

you'd move the 16/25 L over

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

ya!

#

now distribute that 25/9 and some stuff cancels

astral bramble

sure (i'd write that as 5/9 and 4/9 instead though

#

just seems more useful that way

#

no you're good

#

when i told you the cL thing

#

i thought that you had already gotten to this point

#

you see how that fits the L = (bunch of stuff) + cL

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

it'll be a sign error

astral bramble
polar fossil
#

this negative sign became a plus sign somehow

your final answer should involve the number 41

pretty sure that's right

hi can someone explain how to know whether the hyperbola is vertical/horizontal?

fervent cradle
#

if the equation has like x^2 - y^2 = 1 then you can sorta see that (1, 0) is a possibility but (0, 1) isn't, so it'll look like the first case, intersecting the x-axis

if the equation has like y^2 - x^2 =1 then you can see that (1, 0) isn't a possibility but (0, 1) is

brisk arrow
#

They have similar properties as “Inverse functions”

timid silo
#

ohhh

#

okay thank you!

#

hi if the equation is y^2/16-x^2=1

#

what's the b^2?

#

would it be 0?

#

<@&286206848099549185>

The b² would be 1

yes you add a -1

but where

to the total

#

wait

quaint acorn

But x^3-x-1 does not equal the result that we want??

cloud belfry

inside stuff

#

replace x with x-1 to shift right

#

@quaint acorn

quaint acorn
#

could you please show me

cloud belfry
#

(x-1)^3-(x-1)

quaint acorn
#

thats not even correct

#

u have no idea what you are talking about, if you don't have any idea what you are talking about please leave instead of confusing people and putting them in a worse scenario.

#

@royal basin

royal basin
royal basin
quaint acorn
#

no all inside i meant

royal basin
#

shifting 1 unit right means going from y = f(x) [= x^3 - x for you] to y = f(x-1)

quaint acorn
#

ahhh okay, thanks heaps

royal basin
#

so namo was in fact right to say it'll be y = (x-1)^3 - (x-1).

royal basin

ok what do u want me to do

Hello can someone explain why my Calculator says that 0^(-2) = infinite?

warm canopy
#

what do you expect it to say?

solar trellis
signal light
#

when i typ in 0^(-1) it says not definable.

warm canopy
#

it is interpreting it as a limit

#

its interpreting $0^{-2}$ as $\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{1}{x^2} = \infty$

warm shaleBOT

but $\lim_{x \to 0}\frac{1}{x}$ does not exist, which is how its interpreting $0^{-1}$

wispy patio
#

help me understand the solution

obtuse pebbleBOT
wispy patio
#

this is the original problem:

#

i dont understand this part of the solution:

sage geode
#

Okay so let's think about what a1 + a2 should be equal to given that a1 and a2 are additive inverses

#

Since a1 is an additive inverse, adding it to any number does nothing to the number, right?

wispy patio
#

yea

sage geode
#

And a2 is not an exception to that rule

wispy patio
#

makes it 0

sage geode
#

Meaning a2 + a1 = a2

sage geode
sage geode
# sage geode Meaning a2 + a1 = a2

Here a1 was added to a2, but a1 is an additive identity, meaning adding it to any number does nothing to that number, meaning the sum is equal to a2

wispy patio
#

alright yea

#

yea cuz a + r = r

sage geode
#

But a2 is also an additive identity, so we also have a1 + a2 = a1

wispy patio
#

and r can be any number

#

which can also be a2 or a1

sage geode
#

a1 + a2 and a2 + a1 must be the same according to commutativity, right?

wispy patio
#

yea

#

i get it wooo thanks

sage geode
#

So we have a1 = a2

#

Yup

wispy patio
#

alright thanks bro that's all i needed 2 understand

sage geode
#

You might as well note that the only property that we used was commutativity, so this doesn't apply to just real numbers

wispy patio
#

right

#

yea thanks bro that was quick

#

imma close it now

sage geode

Alright, good luck

nocturne sundial
round dagger
#

pls give me the answerrs for all the questions

#

ols

#

pls

nocturne sundial
#

I'm asking if there is only one answer or are there multiple correct answers?

round dagger
#

yes

nocturne sundial
#

That does not answer my question LOL

round dagger
#

?

#

only one answrr

nocturne sundial
#

Okay, thank you

#

It's either i or ii

round dagger
#

ok

#

what is a venn diagram

nocturne sundial
#

A Venn Diagram is a visual representation of a collection of elements and how they relate to one another.

#

I'll send a picture, I'm sure you've seen them before.

round dagger
#

ok

nocturne sundial
#

Overlapping regions have shared elements

#

Ignore the color scheme

round dagger
#

ok

nocturne sundial
#

The image is sending still

round dagger
#

. Let A = { a, b }, B = {a, b, c}. Is A ⊂ B ? What is A ∪ B ?

nocturne sundial
#

The sideways U represents a "subset," which is another way of saying "the elements inside this set are also inside another set."

#

Tell me, are the elements inside of A also inside B?

round dagger
#

yes they are

nocturne sundial
#

Yes

#

Good

#

So, A is a subset of B

round dagger
#

ohh now i get it

nocturne sundial
#

Now, for A U B. That's known as the union of sets, and it's basically just the combined elements of both sets.

round dagger
#

but what is the the opposite of a subset

nocturne sundial
#

Hmm, good question

#

Not a subet, I guess LOL

#

For example

#

A = {1, 2}, B = {3, 4}

round dagger
#

it looks like an upside sown U

nocturne sundial
#

A is not a subset of B

#

That's called an intersection

round dagger
#

what is that

nocturne sundial
#

It represents how many elements of each set are in common with each other

#

What are the common elements of A and B in your problem?

#

By common, I mean shared

round dagger
#

ab

nocturne sundial
#

Yes

#

So {a, b} is the intersection of A and B

round dagger
#

so a,b are te elements of a or b?

#

the

nocturne sundial
#

They are the elements of A and B

#

Which is why {a, b} is the intersection

round dagger
#

oHH

#

ok

nocturne sundial
#

Yeah

round dagger
#

who to do a venn dig question?

#

diagrem

nocturne sundial
#

Draw me two circles and label them A and B

#

But make sure the circles overlap in the center

round dagger
#

ok

#

done

#

then...

nocturne sundial
#

Good, it should look like this

round dagger
#

ok i did

nocturne sundial
#

We're going to have to assign the elements "a" and "b" to a section of this diagram

#

Where do you think they should go?

round dagger
#

a to the first circle and b to the other

#

ab is the mix

#

the oval shape

nocturne sundial
#

It's true that a can be found in the first circle and b can be found in the other, but Venn Diagrams seek to display the relationship between the overlapping parts of each set.

round dagger
#

ok

nocturne sundial
#

There's a more accurate place we could put a and b to demonstrate this relationship.

#

Try again, where do you think a and b should go?

#

To make it as accurate as possible

#

Remember, the overlapping part of the venn diagram repsents the intersection of the two sets

round dagger
#

hmm

#

ok

#

same

#

cant think

nocturne sundial
#

It's okay, you're on the right track.

round dagger
#

ok bro i will come back bye its my chem time now

nocturne sundial
#

I should also mention that in a Venn Diagram, putting an element in the overlapping section also indicates that it is in each circle independently as well.

nocturne sundial
round dagger
#

thank you very much

nocturne sundial
#

Of course, happy to help 🙂

granite sparrow
#

Can someone help explain this

royal shard
#

which step?

granite sparrow
#

1-(1/3+1/3x2/3+1/3(2/3)^2

viscid gull
#

Is it even right?

royal shard
#

its not

#

P(x<=1) would be P(x=0)+P(x=1)

#

they also added P(x=2) which is wrong imo

viscid gull
#

yeah

granite sparrow
#

Original question

royal shard
#

ahhh

#

ok then P(x>2)=1-P(x<=2)

#

in that case, the calculation should be correct, but the first line is wrong

granite sparrow
#

how is the calculation correct

#

i dont understand how its set up like that

royal shard
#

P(x>2)=1-P(x<=2)
do you understand this?

granite sparrow
#

yes

royal shard
#

ok good

#

x can only be 0,1,2,3,...

#

so x<=2 means x can be 0, 1, or 2

granite sparrow
#

mhm

royal shard
#

so P(x<=2)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)

#

and that is easily calculated

granite sparrow
#

where does 1/3x(2/3)^2 come from

#

and 1/3x2/3

royal shard
#

what they did, was they wrote down P(x<=1) instead of P(x<=2)
but then they did include the x=2 term as if they were using P(x<=2)

#

try to calculate P(1) and P(2)

granite sparrow
#

ermm

#

2/9?

#

xd

#

can we call later? gotta go to class

royal shard
#

$P(1)=\frac{1/3}{(3/2)^1}=\frac{1}{3}\cdot\frac{2}{3}$

do you know what N is?

timid silo
#

natural numbers

loud mist
#

yes

#

are the natural numbers 0,1,2...

#

or does it start at 1

timid silo
#

its very confusing because the thing has -3 and other negativ numbers (not natural)

timid silo
loud mist
#

okay

timid silo
#

btw let me translate it a bit better

loud mist
#

so remember with the marbles, we had to know that the zero marble is red, in this case it is 1 instead of 0, so you have to fill in n with 1 and see if the equation is correct that is step 1

timid silo
#

"prove by mathematical induction that for all n e N is valid:" idk if this matters

timid silo
#

so

#

idk

#

wait my stupid brain is having issue processing

#

or i am

#

im the brain

#

im stupid

loud mist
#

so when n equals 1, then the equatiob equals (6*1-9) = 3 - 6

#

do you understand that

timid silo
#

yes but why is it 3 -6

loud mist
#

so this is -3 = -3

timid silo
#

where did you get that from

#

oh

#

nvm

loud mist
#

3n^2 - 6n

#

i just replaced n with 1

#

do you understand

timid silo
#

yes

#

so far

loud mist
#

so step 1 is finished

timid silo
#

i see alrght

loud mist
#

so we have proven that the first marble is red

timid silo
#

step 2, hypothesys my book says

#

we did

loud mist
#

now we need to prove that if the equation is correct for n, that then it is also correct for n+1

#

and then the proof is finished

#

we have proven that all marbles are red

timid silo
#

so it has to be correct for 2

#

n = 2

#

?

loud mist
#

no

timid silo
#

because n was 1

#

so its not 1 anymore?

#

im sorry im very stupid

#

im really trying tho

loud mist
#

so we have to prove that if A = 3n^2 - 6 that then A+(6(n+1)-9) = 3(n+1)^2 - 6(n+1)

timid silo
#

give me like a min to process this

loud mist
#

okay

timid silo
#

what is A

loud mist
#

it is just a name i gave to 3n^2-6

timid silo
#

ah okay

loud mist
#

so you can also prove 3n^2 - 6+(6(n+1)-9) = 3(n+1)^2 - 6(n+1)

timid silo
#

how did you get all of these other numbers

#

"A+(6(n+1)-9)"

#

where did (6(n+1)-9) come from

loud mist
#

so A is basically the right hand side of -3+3+9+...+(6n-9)=3n^2-6n this equation

timid silo
#

i see

loud mist
#

and by the hypothesis we can assume that this equation is true

#

so -3+3+9+...+(6n-9)=3n^2-6n = A

#

so both sides are equal to A

#

and now we have to see what happens when we do n+1 instead of n

timid silo
#

i dont understand

#

why is now -3+3+9+...+(6n-9)=3n^2-6n = A

loud mist
#

well gave -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) the name A, and we know that -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) = 3n^2-6n

#

its kinda like

#

if a = b

#

and b = c

#

then a = c

timid silo
#

alrighti get that so we assume that -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) = 3n^2-6n is correct

loud mist
#

yes

timid silo
#

what then

loud mist
#

we want to know if that equation is still true if we replace n with n+1

timid silo
#

ah alright

#

how will we do that?

loud mist
#

well the right hand side of the eqation if we use n+1 instead of n is A + (6(n+1)-9)

#

do you understand that?

timid silo
#

nope

#

wasnt the right hand side just 3n^2-6n

#

how did you conjure this up

loud mist
#

okay let me give you a simpler equation so you understant what im doing

#

so imagine A = 1 + 2 + ...+ n

timid silo
#

alright

loud mist
#

and B = 1 + 2 + ...+ n+1

#

then B = A + n +1

timid silo
#

hm

loud mist
#

do you understand

timid silo
#

wait

#

neurons are doing somethig

#

alright where did n + 1 come from

loud mist
#

well that is how induction works

#

for the second step

timid silo
#

ah so i just add n + 1 every time

loud mist
#

you need to prove that if n is true then that n+1 is true

#

for the second step

timid silo
loud mist
#

do you understand A + (6(n+1)-9)

#

this now

#

?

timid silo
#

nope 😦

loud mist
#

dont worry

timid silo
#

im sorry

#

im sorry

loud mist
#

so this -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) = A

#

we called it A

#

its just the name

#

okay

timid silo
#

yeah i get that

loud mist
#

but now if we do it for n+1 then B = -3+3+9+...+(6(n+1)-9)

#

and this is the same as B = A + (6(n+1)-9)

timid silo
#

oh you just added 1

loud mist
#

yea i replaced n

#

with n+1

#

do you understand B = A + (6(n+1)-9) now

timid silo
#

why didnt you just tell me that

#

yes

loud mist
#

now we need to prove that B = 3(n+1)^2-6(n+1)

timid silo
#

so -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) + (6(n+1)-9)

loud mist
#

yes

timid silo
#

and then calculate

#

ah

loud mist
#

well yes but

#

we can replace -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) with 3n^2-6n

#

becauce we know -3+3+9+...+(6n-9) = 3n^2-6n

#

is true

#

thats the hypothesis

#

so in the end we need to prove that 3n^2-6n + (6(n+1)-9) = 3(n+1)^2-6(n+1)

#

do you get it

timid silo
#

maybe

#

lets see

#

i think i do

loud mist
#

do you know how to prove it?

timid silo
#

but i think i will not be able to repeat this to solve anything by myself

timid silo
loud mist
#

always compare it to the marble example

#

it always uses the same principle

timid silo
#

alrght well thank you for your time

loud mist
timid silo
#

im sorry you wasted it on my worthless self but im sure ayou get some good karma for it

loud mist
#

you need to show that the right hand side is the same as the left hand side

#

with some algebra

timid silo
#

i need to go now

#

I am supposed to draw the graph of the function. How the hell should I even start?

#

does the graph "tighten" because of the bigger number (the one we multiply with x)?

stray shoal
#

for the first question the graph is stretched in the x direction by a scale factor 2

#

I like to think of it as though I had some values I could plug in and what would happen to them. For the first one:

#

original is y = f(x). then we get y = f(2x). To get the same value we have had to multiply the x value by 2

narrow jackal
#

I think I understand, but could you give me a moment to post the results?

#

to make sure I am right, I guess

stray shoal
#

sure

narrow jackal
#

some of the lines are shaky, but that's because of my pencil

stray shoal
#

I think that's correct

narrow jackal
#

Thank you very much!

Is the standard deviation given in this problem considered the population standard deviation?
The fresh egg weight of a randomly selected egg of a Mallard Duck is a random variable with a mean of 50.1 grams and standard deviation of 3.5 grams. Calculate the 90th percentile of the sample mean of a random sample 34 fresh Mallard Duck eggs. Use one decimal place accuracy.
So I would still need to calculate the sample standard deviation using this formula?
