Could anyone check if i have this question right ( a and b), please?
"A metal sphere with mass is suspended from a horizontal ceiling using a rope (with negligible mass) and swings back and forth. The mass of the sphere is m = 627 g, and the gravitational acceleration is 9.81 m/s². At a given moment, the rope makes an angle θ = 28.0° with the ceiling.
(a) Calculate the magnitude of the force that the rope exerts on the sphere at that moment:
Fs = I Fg ·L I / II L II
Fg is the gravitational force vector, and L is a vector from the beginning to the end of the stretched rope.
Provide an answer with three significant figures.
(b) in which range [a, b] can the outcome of a scalar product GENERALLY be found." I got ]-infinity, + infinity[ Is this also correct?

I did not check your gravitational but for part b, does that really make sense? I'd use a function of both a and b instead, rather than a uniform 'all reals' answer (which is generally not informative)
the multiple choice answers were: 0, 1 ; -1,0 ; -1, 1 ; 0, +infinity ; -infinity, 0 ; -infinity, +infinity
Why is it suddenly a multiple choice
Only (b) is a multiple choice question

Let $m, n \in \mathbb{N}$
Find the number af multiples of $m$ that are contained within the set ${1,2, \ldots n}=: A$
Denote $p(m, n):=#{k m {1, \ldots n}, n \in \mathbb{N}}$
I want to prove that $P(m, n)=\left\lfloor\frac{n}{m}\right\rfloor=\max \left(\left{x \in Z: x \leq \frac{n}{m}\right}\right)$
If $n=0$ then $A={}$ and $p(m, n)=0$
If $m=0$ then $k \cdot m=0$ $\notin$ $A \Rightarrow P(m, n)=0$
If $n, m \neq 0$
I want he prove that $p(m, n)=\left\lfloor\frac{n}{m}\right\rfloor$
To prove this I will first show that $p(m, n) \leq\left\lfloor\frac{n}{m}\right\rfloor$ and then $\left\lfloor\frac{n}{m}\right\rfloor \leq P(m, n)$.
$$
\begin{aligned}
& P(m, n)=#{k m {1,2, \ldots n}, n \leq \mathbb{N}} \leq \
\end{aligned}
$$

Sorry about that
Got it properly now
This is where I'm stumped. What kind of upper estimate can we find for p(m,n)? Maybe we can directly say that p(m,n) $\leq$ $\max \left(\left{x \in Z: x\cdot m \leq n\right}\right)$

How can I rewrite 21x/2 to something more understandable? I got help earlier for x/3 which turned out to be 1/3x. Is there something that can be done for 21x/2 ?
you mean 1/3 * x
Same logic can be applied, in general, $\frac{ax}{b} = \frac{a}{b} x$
not 1/(3x) different things
CaptainNova22
So $\frac{14x}{3} = \frac{14}{3}x$
CaptainNova22
21x/2 = (21/2)*x
Yes
uh if 21/2 can be simplified
Ohh ok
So the same thing can be done
That’s very helpful
Thanks everyone

I did 8c6 x 0.6^6 x 0.4^2 + 8c6 x 0.5^8
and then divided it by 2
what did I do wrong
@vestal cape Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
You have to divide by the probability of having tails on your first throw
You also have*
By the definition of conditional probability, P(E | F) = P(EnF) / P(F)
since it's given that the first of the 9 flips lands on tails I thought it was not needed to be calculated
Have you learned the definition written just above?
And then also to compute P(EnF), you need to be careful as you don't have any conditional event now
but then I got 0.02211068611
which is wayyy too small
cause p(B) is 8c1 x 0.4 + 8c1 x 0.5 no?
Because P(EnF) should give you
[8C6 × (0.6)^6 × (0.4)^3 + 8C6 (0.5)^9]/2
What did you define as B? Having tails on first throw ?
yeah
No, this should give you (0.4 + 0.5)/2
so wait what is p(f)
My F is your B
Yes
okkk thank you so much
And P(EnF) is there
yeah I messed up thinking that I could just ignore the first flip
Be careful the exponents arent the same as you first suggested

So the question is f(x,y) = xy constrained by g(x,y) = x^2 + y^2 - xy - 9
Using Lagrange Multipliers to find the maximum and minimum
The values in the 2nd picture is what I got when plugging back into f(x,y) but I wanna check if my work is correct

Is this the correct integral?
(\int^1_{-1}\int^{\sqrt{1-x}}_{\sqrt{1+x}}2x^2-2y^2dy dx)
hamr
unfortunately, no
your y between 1 and - 1 and x between y^2 - 1 and 1 - y^2
if you pick x=1/2, draw the points (1/2,y) where y lies betwen sqrt(1+1/2) and sqrt(1-1/2)
you're going to see you're integrating over those points, but they're not in the region you want to be integrating over

does anyone know how to solve $ ln(x + 2) = x + 1$
$$ln(x + 2) = x + 1$$
Hzhou1
Impossible
theres one solution
oh
shoot I was working on a problem and got to this point
yea it should be -1
but can I just say that?
Why not? "I plugged in x = -1 and it worked"

T
Top graph
ok
so we know it goes up 4
but now it’s kind of strange because at x = 2 it changes
so how would I write that in a equation
you don't care about the actual equation, the equation is y=f(x). you just need to express each graph as a transformation of f(x).
y=10f(x) for example, would stretch the graph by a factor of 10
what you really care about is what graph (a) looks like compared to f(x)
right
I first look at the max value of the graph
then compare that to the max value of graph (a)
kinda
it's getting shrunk, so what can u multiply values by to make them shrink. the max value of f(x) and graph (a) are 4 and 2 respectively.
so how do you get 4 to turn into 2. what do you multiply it by?
1/2
so to make sure we're correct, let's look at another point.
yes
the graph flattens out at y=2 in f(x) and y=1 in graph (a)
as well as y=-4 and y=-2, respectively
so that checks out
so then how do you write that it's being compressed by 1/2
so you're multiply all the y values by 1/2, that's what we're doing, correct?
and y=f(x)
ya
so how could you represent graph (a) using the term f(x), which is y, knowing that you're multiplying all y values by 1/2?
y equals what
use the term f(x)
almost. y=(1/2)f(x)
that's the graph of (a)
since the y-values of f(x) all get compressed by a value of 1/2 in graph (a)
if you were to stretch it by any factor A, the the resulting transformation is y=Af(x)
okay
It can’t be infront of f(x) right
no, that would mean we're changing the y's
so it has to be infront of f(x)
I mean
wait
before f(x) is y values change
Af(x)
correct
then after f(x) is x values change lool
almost. lol. it's inside the function.
so the numbers are being compressed again yea?
so it's a factor of 2 that it's changing by, but is it 2 or 1/2 that is being multiplied by x?
yes.
f(x-1/2)
no.
What the e heck
it does go inside, but we've decided that it's multiplying every x value by 1/2
not subtracting
f(x)1/2
Phhh that’s what u mean
change x, change inside. change y, change outside
Make
are those the only two questions?
There’s one more
But
That one is flipped over the x axis
So is the negative here or here
f(-x)
-f(x)
it's flipped over the y-axis, remember that bottom flat line was on the left side for f(x)
so if it's flipped over the y-axis, then none of the y-values change
if none of the y-values change, then we're changing the x values
F(-x)
no problem friend

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 was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

okay i apologize
Intuitively, you can think of vectors as arrows. How would you find the opposite direction of where an arrow is pointing
-vector?
yeah
next step?
Do you know how to get the magnitude of a vector?
yes
ok do that then divide by 2
actually
you can just divide the original vector by 2
I was gonna make this more complicated then it had to be
yeah nvm what I said about finding the magnitude
That would be half of the original vector yeah
But it needs to be in the opposite direction so you can now multiply it by -1
Or you could flip it then half it
For that question we need to find the magnitude of v.
ok
If we multiply sqrt35 by 8/sqrt35 we would get 8 obviously, but we can also multiply the original vector by 8/sqrt35 and its magnitude will become 8
so multiply each component by 8/sqrt35 to get your answer

Do i take the derivtive and set it to 0?
you can
that's what i tried doing and still got it wrong
show me your f'(x)
then after 3 attempts, i put it into desmos, found the maximum x value, and its still wrong
😭
f'(x) = -(ln(x)-1)/3x^2
and what did you get for f'(x) = 0?
What is that???
yeah
wait no bc if i set it to 0, then that'll be the minimum
Do u guys know how to do this
dont i have to find the double derivative to find the maximum
get your own cahnnel
channel is already full, go to #❓how-to-get-help
you could
or just do sign analysis on f'(x)
oh yeah i j noticed that
i think 6 decimal places bc it says 5 places after the decimal point

why isn't this just 2000/22?
it could be
they don't say what kind of growth it is, but like, bacteria wouldn't do it linearly
how would i set up the equation for exponential growth
it would just be 2^(1/22)
so growth rate would be
2^(1/(insert time))
as the formula?
ohhh so 4000/2000 = 2 and that's how u get the difference
yes
so difference^(1/(time))
sure
so i plug the difference between starting and end population, add the amount of time
and the answer for growth constant would be 2^(1/22)?
for this question\
and this applies for every other question that's structured like this?
it says give an exact answer
click the reference thing, maybe it explains more
yeah so "growth constant" imlpies exponential form, so you also log that
yeah im looking thru the provided pdf rn and its hard to wrap my head around it
ln(2) / 22
yeah, ln(2^(1/22)) = ln(2) / 22 is the right one
yes like that

hi could someone please help review my methods/stats section of my thesis? don't need any work done for me or anything but just to need some advice and for someone to check that my methodology is sound, ty! willing to compensate
I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this
I can't help you bc I'm a lowly freshman
but good luck
oh sorry if it's the wrong place, do you know a more appropriate place?
Your thesis?
hi yes
it's a dissertation in the social sciences, it's not sophisticated stats or anything
I mean you can post if you are willing to
but no promises
I think you should try #advanced-lounge instead
Or one of the advanced statistics channels
hmm ^^
this is meant more for a single math question you need help with solving
it is unlikely someone will look over your dissertation in a help channel

hi
@merry girder Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
To first start this problem do you know what form the equation is in?
on b?
cuz it has no x intercepts
can distance be negative
no
can distance be 0
correct
basically, how far can this rope stretch out horizontally
mathematically focus in on (x-200)^2
do i solve for x..?
give me one minute im trying to think of a better way to explain it to you
Think back to what nosq said, with distance
if distance cannot be negative then your x-value has to start at 0 right?
yeah
idk it kinda continues
do you remember how to find the focal width of a parabola
400 = x
yepppppp
but like
the thing is
that only apploes when the other side is 0
right?
i wanna do it if the other side was not 0
also is c [0,30]
?
that's beyond the scope of the question, you have to set it to be 0 since distance is scalar
your height isn't capped at 30
huh
the vertex is (200, 30), meaning the absolute minimum is 30
ohh
( since it's facing upward )
mhm
is it[30,80]
i believe so
i'm unsure if it is asking for a coordinate or an actual measurment for distance
on th answer it says 30 for f and 80 for g
then yeah it's the x and y value of the coordinate point
f) the closest distance from the cable to the base of the bridge
would be on the vertex as it would be the lowest point
as for g
g) the greatest distance is at the highest point
be wary though if they gave the bridge a line for example or a point you'd most likely have to use the distance formula to calculate it since you'd have 2 points
does that make sense?
yeah

i got another question if thats fine
i can try
its 2 lol
bingo
trial and error lets go
1/9 = 3^-t
i was abt to bring logs up if u didnt know
but yeah
aight

how would I solve this
x is between 0 and 2pi
I notice sin2x can be rewritten as
2sinxcosx
so I currently have
2sinxcosx+cosx-2sinx-1=0
2sinxcosx + cosx = 1 + 2sinx
cosx(1 + 2sinx) = 1 + 2sinx
cos x = 1
x = 0 ?
ooh
well yes
but that's how you find x
right?
what is the question
I guess
is it Prove : OR is it Solve for x
solve for x
then that is the answer
give complete information or else it is very hard for helpers to help
agreed
that is the information though
solve for x
and that's the question
where x is between 0 and 2 pi or equal to 0 or 2 pi
this is ur answer, which btw is againt the rules of this server
ah?
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
yeah but i think its ok , the guy already knew sin2x = 2sinxcosx
I c
u helped them with factoring and canceling
but there's more to it no?
no
Just quickly, doesn't this assume 1+2sin(x) != 0?
oh yeh thats wrong then
Because the answers say 0, 7pi/6, 11pi/6 and 2pi
the answer the guy gave was wrong
oh right that's true
2sinxcosx + cosx - 1 - 2sinx = 0
cosx(1+2sinx)-1(1+2sinx)=0
cosx-1 = 0 OR 1+2sinx=0
err... how come?
solve both the cases
i c
By going to the cos(x) = 1 step, you divided by 1+2sin(x).
Ohhhhh Ok
thanks
I was just confused with how I could factorise it
so (cosx-1)(2sinx+1)=0
and that's easy to solve for then
ok
thanks

I think this is the repeated squaring method, but I'm currently stuck because I don't fully understand what my teacher meant with this
How do you go from 16, 13 to nothing
and why can you use fermat's little method on 9 and 3 to make it 10?
it's not FLT
it's just straight up multiplication
9*3 = 27 = 10 mod 17
oh wow, ofcourse
thank you, that makes a lot more sense. But how did he go from 16 11, 17 to -11?
16 = −1
and 10*13 = 11 mod 17 it seems
it's solved in two ways at the same time for some reason
¯_(ツ)_/¯
they get 16×11, and also 4×10

Guys help me in this
remember this is a circle
AO=DO
so DLO
DLM is a long route since DM length is still unknown
@spice plinth
you dont need it
since O is center
then NO is radius
radius = Diameter/2 = 1.5
NL is 1
so LO is???
Yes but we need to find DH
0.5
DO is?
DF is 2 root 2
3
DO is 1.5
Yep
then DL is?
It is root 2 I have solved it but we need to find DH

There is a polygon with n sides, where each side having the length x. There is an ant at each vertex, and each ant will keep walking directly to the ant clockwise of them. Find in terms of n and x, the total distance an ant will walk before reaching the centre.
How do I continue this, I tried drawing a triangle and square and doing small movements and it creates a spiralling towards the centre
drawing an outline with the ants as the vertexs creates a smaller polygon, repeating this process, you can see its the overall larger polygon getting smaller and smaller and spiraling clockwise to the centre
directly to the ant clockwise of them..doesnt that mean it will move always on the perimeter?
the other ant is also moving - so they all kinda curve as they move around - leading to a spiralling effect
when one moves slightly forward, the one behind it wont be moving straight
No, that would be going along the perimeter rather than directly.
oh right, all of them are moving
They also meet in the center, so they're not staying on the perimeter.
yeah makes sense
well one ant has to be the first
@gleaming crypt Has your question been resolved?
I think is x
No matter of n
its not just x, I thougt that too
The vector of velocity (v) is always pointed to the other ant neighbor
we can tell its not x by thinking as n approaches infinty
it approaches a circle
and the inward spiral will definitely have a length longer than x
as x is apporaching 0 when n approaches infinity
Yeah
so any clue on how to proceed?
And the radial velocity = v
we knwo that the relative angle is always fixed
how do we get the distance out of that tho?
Yeah, my bad. Yesterday I solved similar problem but it was with square
There the vectors of velocity are perpendicular
If their velocities are equal the shape will be the same in every time
Can you find the time take for them to meet each other by using relative velocity?
there isnt
?
as a whole or a single ant?
Single ant
will i get ban if i ask question if the help is not my channel
Yea but there's a component of its velocity towards the centrw
🤔
if it helps my question, I dont mind
it doesnt but its really quick
the instruction is to list the constant term of the polynomial
if there is no constant term do i write
"none" or "0"🤔😞
0 is the constant then
I see, but how do I find out the magnetude of that?
You get this?
This is a slice of the polygon
And the angle at the centre will be 2π/n
oh u changed it to parallel and perpendicular
Yes
Now can you imagine the ants will retain the shape of the polygon while they move towards each other?
yes got that part
And the polygon will always be a regular polygon
We are getting there
So the component of velocity of an ant towards the centre of the polygon will always be the same ?
yes
The magnitude of it
I am focusing on a single ant
As the ants move the polygon will get smaller while it rotates
ye
So the magnitude of velocity of the ant towards the centre is constant and the other component of the velocity is perpendicular so it doesn't interfere yes?
Yes
hi
hi
is it the ant question in moving bowl?
then?
So isnt the time taken to reach center = distance of centre from the ant divided by the velocity of ant towards the centre?
Didn't we just establish the velocity towards the centre is the only thing that matters
Like that's what I've been trying to tell you all along
oh
but it just doesnt seem like its that
but does make sense sicne its the only force
going towards the centre
and the otehr is perpendicular
The other component is perpendicular so it doesn't interfere with us and velocity towards the centre isn't changing
but how do we find the velocity of the ant?
You don't need to
Just let it be as v
It will cancel out when we are finding the distance
ok
where does that just pop out from
So as you can see from the diagram our velocity towards the centre is v sin(π/n)
yes
And can you use a bit of geometry to find the distance of vertex to the centre?
distance is $\frac{x/2}{sin(\frac{\pi}{n}}$
龘
Yes
so time is x/2
Divide properly bro
It's x/2vsin²(π/n)
Yes
Now you have time of traveling
And the ant always had net speed as v
Not talking about the centre anymore, im talking about the resultant speed
yes
It was always v towards the other ant
so distance will just be velocity * time
Yes
$\frac{x}{2sin^2(\pi/n)}$
龘
Yep
why
Good job bro, i was thinking how was I gonna explain all that to someone but you got it quite easily
What why
knew the stuff needed, but just had no idea how to formulate it all

Context: the class is called topics in algebra. We have been talking about groups
Question: a b c and x are elements of a group G. X^2a = bxc^-1 and acx = xac. Express c in terms of a b c and their inverses
#help-10 If a, b, and c are consecutive integers such that a < b < c, which of the following must be true?
A) b is even
B) c is odd
C) a + b + c is even
D) b – a is odd
E) b + c is even
x is a variable yes?
I guess technially, but we don't use typical inverse properties
a,b,c,d is answer
Well your options are either odd even odd or even odd even. Apply both scenarios to see what is true for both
thanks
Why are you guys using this channel?
Idk. I was here first
do u need expla?
Just some hint or clarification. I really don't understand what it is asking
So acx = xca is useless
It helps provide idea of a abelian ig
What is an abelian
A group that us commutative
It's literally useless in this question
Alright then
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
wait, are you solving for x or c?
Solving for x
solving for x makes more sense, yea
Wait why did I give out the answer immediately
idk man?
X^2a = bxc^-1 i'd try to deal with this equation first
specifically, get rid of the c^-1

are those 2 things same?
my teacher today told us that those 2 are different , and ive been trying both methods on same examples and i always get the same answer
so your teacher specifically told you that the expressions $\sqrt[n]{a \sqrt[m]{a}} = \sqrt[n]{a \cdot \sqrt[m]{a}}$ are unequal?
AnnGhost
or what
and so she gave us an example, did it both ways and the both ways gave same answer and she said that it was coincidence
yes
ann got de-honorabled?
yes i did next question
gg
pochemy
bullshit lmao
yeah i did like 4-5 examples and they were all same answers
so i was just asking to be sure
because i always thought that if a is next to some sqrt, that it means a*sqrt
ill ask her next class, i am sure she said it like this because she used the different methods
thank you tho
appreciate it

Start with the formula you would use
I’m assuming it’s the elastic energy formula
its divirident i think

a chord (?) in the unit circle is seen from a point in the circle with the degree of 120, decide the length of the chord
ok so the circle has radius 1
so the way I did this originally is most likely not "correct", so I'd like some clarification on if it's ok ro not
ok show us
so i'm using c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2bccos(alpha)
and the idea I have is that the beta must be 240 degrees since inscribed angle says y = 2x
but I think it's not applicable the way I did it
all the images online makes it seems as if the only way I can do it is if it's a triangle within another triangle..
although this one does show that it can be to the left as well
so that approach is ok for calculus then?
do you mean calculation
no like that level of math
are there more ways to get the angle of alpha?

i need help with this question, i'll translate it in the next message
consider that x is a real number, how many positive integers exist such that they can't be written as floor(x^2) + floor(x) while being smaller than 2023
the part i don't understand is that you can write any real number into the floor function
is there a really really special case that i don't know

In this graph, why is the interval 0<x<5 considered negative?
The function is x/x-5
There is an asymptope at 5
Between 0 and asym. 5, the sign of f(x) is considered negative
According to my book
Huh ok that makes sense I thought it meant something esle thank you
The sign of a function just talks about whether the function is positive or negative
It's positive when you get positive values for your inputs (or the graph is above the x -axis), and negative when you get negative values for your inputs (the graph is under the x -axis).
