hmmm
can we do some other version
lemme think a bit harder then
maybe 8 + x = 5 + x
no, you're saying that 8=5 there
im gonna need a pen for this
@cursive pagoda ?
yes
oh and by the way e4 buddy
10
?
no 💀
wow,
we did it in 8th grade but teacher was a bitch and i memorized nothing
lol
e4
oh
okay
?
so you got two similar triangles
YES CHEF
ur move?
ight
you got the triangle ADE, which have an angle A on A (obviously), an angle of 86º on D, and an unknown angle that we dont care about on E
sir yes sir
you got the triangle ABC which has the same angle A on A (again, obviously), the angle of 86º on B, and an unknown angle that we still dont care about on C
YES CHEF
the length from A to D divided by the length of A to E has the same ratio as the length from A to B divided by the length from A to C, because they are similar triangles
that means that you have:
$\frac{x}{x+2}=\frac{x+5}{x+8}$
LordFelix
first try, wohoo!!
where did u get x+ 5 from
(x+2) + 3
goodjob but hwere did u get x+ 8 from
x+5 is the length from A to B
x+8 is the length from A to C
(actually i should put the cm there on the 2, 5 and 8, but i was lazy)
that's cheating
it;s not teacher tells us to check it after every assignment
dude that's actually sick you are a fucking elgend
hm, you should not have a need to check if you are sure that your procedures are correct
similar figures
oohhhhh alright
im never sure, it's math
once again
then you havent studied it properly
your move, lets play in dms
okay
if you studied it properly enough to fully understand it, you know that the procedure you're doing is correct
an that's your goal
so what level of maths are you studying, felix?
and what does it take to become a maths help?
i believe it's just activity measured by bot
and then you're upgraded to maths help?
dont know, and dont really care tbh. There are many white names that know a fuckton more than me
go to #odes-and-pdes and pretty much every white name there knows more
alright thakns
and in many other channels too

#6. Do not understand
How to solve
Does this help?
yeah
yeah it really fucking does holy shit
right so
i can't tell which fractions to make
irdk what to do
im probably mentally impaired
@lone echo
does this help more?
you should be able to get y by similarity of triangles
can u tell me the fractions for that
it's 10 PM here, my brain aint braining
i got it
i got it

why does Fs decrease and not increase
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
Well Fn is increasing
And (mu_s)(Fn)=Ffriction=Fparallel
so as F parallel increases, Fn has to increase so it can still be on the board but since that's the variable increases mu_s has to stay the same (?)

puckmyseen
i have no idea after
Similar triangles/shapes
i don't understand how you thought of that
You are trying to find AB in this
and since DEC is similar to ABC
you can do EC/EC+BE=DE/AB
If you recall, area of a triangle is (1/2) * b * h, finding the hypotenuse (DC) is useless since you have the base, you just need the height of the triangle, AB
yeah, that's the point of finding AB in this scenario
so you have to set up equivalent ratios
ohhh ok i see it now
glad to help

Hello
partial fraction decomposition
no, its a way of breaking a fraction into a sum of fractions
in class were doing solving for rational equations
wdym?
like breaking left side
into a sum of fractions
OH
I think i understand
like split the lf into 2 fractions with same denominators as right side
its a bit involved, i suggest looking at a video or two on youtube. explaining it here completely would be quite tedious

Hello
Umbe
basically (S) means seed
or a infinite number of decimals
and n is the number and x is the place of that number
so for instance, seed = 596166825
we take 8 from 596166825 and n = 8. since 8 is in the 7th place, so x = 7
so that means we take 8 minus the first n which is 5
so 8-5 = 3
so the next seed (x) is 3
not the next seed but the next 7th place seed
therefore
$S = n_{x}-n_{1}$
Umbe
and if $n_{1} > n_{x} $ then, $n_{1} - |n_{x}|$
Umbe
for example, take $π, 3.14159265$
we want to know the outcome or the number after 5, so to do that, we plug x in
and remember, x cannot be 1
so we instead take 4 in this case of 3.1415~
so 4 - 1 = 3
so the next digit of this "seed" is 3
which is correct.
does this make sense?
<@&286206848099549185>
Umbe
Positive: $S^+ = n_{x}+n_{1}$ if not, then Negative: $S^- = n_{x}-n_{1}$
Umbe
<@&286206848099549185> Do y'all think makes sense
I think bc it follows the decimals
for irrational numbers

Can you show your work and where you're confused?
yes
Just said that 
congrats on being first!
I hate sarcastic people so much especially on a math homework night 
what I'm mainly confused on is because I got B as the answer but is there anyway for D to be the answer??
No, you are correct
so it must be an error 🤔

partial derivative ∂D/∂P when D = Y/2P
im just confused how you do the partial deriv of this when its a fraction but P only appears in denominator
you just treat anything not P as a constant
so look at it like $D = \frac{Y}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{P}$
MellowDramaLlama
the derivative of 1/P should be straightforward
deriv of 1/p is lnp correct?
MellowDramaLlama
then just use the power rule
ohhh so it would be -p^-2 ?
but you still have to include the Y/2 right, so the answer would be -((Y/2p^2))?
yep nice work!
thank you!!
yep np

This is a problem i have never seen before, does anyone know how to calculate instantaneous rate of chance, when square roots are involved? I can't stretch my mind to grasp how anyone could remove the denominator.
Do you know about rationalization
it sounds familiar, I am unbelievably rusty.
how would it work with two square roots? im trying to do mental math, but it doesnt compute
@timid silo Has your question been resolved?
oh hey what the heck rationalizing does work
how did you know to rationalize?
I just do it everytime I see root in limits

When proving a statement in the form of A or B implies C, do I have to show the case where A and B implies C? Or is showing the cases A but not B and B but not A sufficient?
can you clarify a little?
i dont really get what you mean by "explicitly use"
If you assume both not B and A and prove C, then if you use the assumption that not B, then it's not enough
Same but with A and B switched
do you actually use "B and not A" or does your proof actually only use "B"
i assumed A and not B
then assumed B and not A
and i do use the assumption "not A" in my proof
then its not enough
So then is this a false statement then?
First I changed to a contrapositive statement, "If a or b is odd, then a^2 - 3b is odd"
Then assumed a odd b even and a even b odd
in both of those cases a^2 - 3b is odd, however when I let a and b be odd it gives me that a^2 - 3b is even
or maybe i should use a proof by contradiction instead? but idk how to start with that
yes the statement is false

I've found a pattern
1 -> 1/2
2 -> 5/6
3 -> 23/24
...
but the indctuin part im not sure
so the pattern would be
((n+1)! - 1) / (n+1)!
induction
n(1) is true because n(1) = 1/2! = ((2)! - 1) / (2)!
=
((1 + 1)! - 1) / (1 + 1)!
where n = 1
coolio
suppose n(k) = ((k+1)! - 1) / (k+1)!
then I have to show n(k+1) is true right
but how
n(k+1) = ((k+2)! - 1) / (k+2)!
like how
n(k + 1) = (((k+1) +1)! - 1) / ((k+1) + 1)!
idek
Do you see how n(k) and n(k+1) are related?
how do u mean related
Like what do you need to add to n(k) to make it equal to n(k+1)?
uhh
n(k)=1/2!+2/3!+...+(k-1)/k!+k/(k+1)!
i need to add (k+1) / (k+2)!
mhm
So add this to the n(k) above, and see if you can get it to be equal to n(k+1)
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i get you
i did it 🙂 awesome tysm

wtf is wrong with this
To determine if everything in the set has same color, you'll have to make comparisons, and to make comparisons, you need atleast 2 objects. So the base case should've been P(2) instead of P(1), and in P(2), the induction hypothesis fails

i have another inudction question i think im kinda struggling with these
this time its just wiht the algebra though
i've gotten to
(k+2)^2 * (k^2 + k + 1) / 2^2
and im tryna get the top to be square
but idk how
Do you mean $(k+1)^3+(\frac{k(k+1)}{2})^2$?
yee
i tried to doa bit of simplifying and facotring
like i ran the power of 2 through the second + term
and then took out a common factor of (k+1)^2
not sure how to finish it

(You may edit your message to recompile.)
Ah, you get what I mean though
yee i do
It's just some algebra here. You take (k+1)^2 common to get (k+1)^2×(4(k+1)+k^2)/4 which is (k+1)^2×(k+2)^2/4, which is exactly what you require
how did u simplyify
k^2+4k+4 is (k+2)^2

hello what is
-7+4c=7c+6
(sorry im in middleschool i find this hella hard im 14)
i basically
got
3c=13
but if i divide it
its 4.33333333...
you screwed up the signs
should be 3c = -13
also you can and should leave it as a fraction
-13/3 is just fine as -13/3, you don't need to make it into a decimal

this is the question
it has to be -6
yes
is that -13

how do i do part bn
what'd you get from a
So we know that 1-2i is a 0
That means 1+2i is a zero as well
If that is the case, there should be only one rational zero for P(x)
in order to find b
You should expand (x-(1-2i))*(x-(1+2i))
and you will get the polynomial at b
then you should do polynomial division to find c
Is it clear

and operator works the same as multiplication
if one of the inputs is 0 then the output is 0
if both of the inputs are 1 then the output is 1
also the bar shouldnt be over A.B , it should only be over A
do not forget that you should find (not A) and B
Correct?
last row wrong
What do I do?
in the last row B is equal to 0
if even one of them is 0, the result of an AND operation is 0
so last row should be 0 as well

Need serious help with this
You just substitute everything that has been given to you
and then take the integral
you could take the A0 constant outside the integral
you would be left with x*e^x
take the integral and take the boundaries from 0 to L
then multiply with the given constants
Can you do these
so plug in everything and then what
First of all take the integral of x*e^x
yes
what do you find
no need for + c
since we will take the boundaries
the boundaries are from 0 to L
L is 0.11
so first 0.11 and then 0
you should have found 0.11e^x
then multiply with the remaining constants
which are 2400, 9.81 and 0.014
and that is your answer
this should be 0.11e^0.11
thanks a lot man
can u double check my answer?

I need help with this, how do I prove that its not injektive nor surjective
Send screenshots, not weird files.
No PRTSC button?
its a macbook
to prove it isn't injective, you can give two x values which give the same value for f(x)
it keeps making it into a file
oh okay
and to prove its not surjective
how do i do that
to prove it isn't surjective, you need to prove that there exists some value of y such that f(x) is not equal to y for any real x
the easiest way is to find the minimum of your function and say that a value of y below that minimum is part of the codomain but it cannot be achieved, hence the function is not surjective
ohh right
so not injective because when x = -1, 0 or 1, then y has the same value right
yeah you can say that
more generally, f(x)=f(-x), hence it isn't injective
but your explanation is fine
and not surjective cause when y is below -0,25 there are no solutions
right
yep
perfect
but you need to make sure that
thank you so much
those values of y are in the codomain
for example if the function was defined as f: R -> [-1/4, inf) then it would be surjective
as every value of the codomain can be achieved by the function
i.e codomain = range
yeah, I was just giving an example

hi guys
what is Xi ( Z?
x_i is an integer
I would try to solve this without the x_2\leq 4 first, then filter out those sols. later
then you can base it on X2 condition
make it scenario where x 2 = 2, 3, and 4
and solve it
or that, I suppose
when x2 = 2
a = 2, c = 2, d = 2, e = 3
a = 2, c = 2, d = 3, e = 2
a = 2, c = 3, d = 2, e = 2
a = 3, c = 2, d = 2, e = 2
x2 = 3
a = 2, c = 2, d = 2, e = 2
x2 = 4
not possible
where x1 = a , x3 = c, x4 = d, and x5= e sorry if it is confusing
why are there 1s in that?
If you put all x_i =2 sum is 10
So only way to get 11 is that one those should be 3 and others should be 2
opps yea my bad
:^)
So only 5 ways
Like x1=x2=x3=x4=2 and x5=3
And just rotate the 3 among all xi

Hey, Don, could you show me an example of a function that has a derivative of 0 almost everywhere, but not constant
Who is Don?
I guess x/x^2 has a derivative of almost zero over most of its domain
I need a derivative of exactly 0 almost everywhere, not a derivative of almost 0
The step function
Its derivative is 0 almost everywhere except for a countable set of discontinuities

what is the "quick proof" I'm looking for?
I have that lim(x_n) = x* and I want to show that (x*)^2 = a
by problem 3, I have that lim(x_n)^2 = (lim(x_n))^2
I need to show that lim(x_n) = sqrt(a), and Q3 gives me that lim(x_n)^2 = (lim(x_n))^2
so if I can show that lim(x_n)^2 = a, then I've shown that lim(x_n) = sqrt(a) = x* , so (x*)^2 = a
but that doesn't seem quick nor easy
so I don't understand what the "quick" proof is supposed to be
well the only thing you really know is x_n
and the only equation you have is the recursive case of x_n
you could try working w/ that recursion equation (and limits)
@dusk widget
to be a bit more precise, if you have two sequences u_n and v_n such that u_n = v_n for pretty much all n, can you say anything about their limits ?
Limits are the same
@dusk widget Has your question been resolved?
want more hints ? @dusk widget
I feel like I'm close, lemme try for a bit more
aight
$$\lim_{n\to\infty}x_{n+1} = \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac12\left(x_n + \frac{a}{x_n}\right)$$
aPlatypus
taking the recursion equation, and looking at the limits
@dusk widget
that's what I was suggesting
(it's the place where our x* starts to shine)
does lim(x_n+1) = x* also?
why?
if n goes to infty, then n+1 also goes to infty when you think about it
i mean, i guess?
the terms in the sequence are offset by 1, but would that change the final value of x*?
if x_n converges to L, then any subsequence of x_n also converges to L if we wanna be formal
and x_n+1 is one of those subsequences
yes
what i did hinged on this fact
but I have a result that says that (x*)^2 = a
so I think I did it properly
mélo writing a 3 page rebuttal on why I shouldn't be trusted with analysis
😆
you can also see it as a consequence of Banach's fixed point theorem
since x_(n+1) = f(x_n) with f continuous on the given interval for the sequence, it converges to a fixed point, if it converges
so it converges to -sqrt(a) or sqrt(a) which are the two fixed points
why would I do something like that lmao
I swear I've never eaten a kid in my whole life
ah, I haven't gotten to any "proper" real analysis yet
no metric spaces and such
I'm a freshman
what platypus said essentially leads to the same reasoning, since you'll have x* = 1/2 (x* + a/x*)
you're solving for a fixed point
hm, I don't really think I used this assumption did I?
you're using it when you're looking for x*
bc x* = lim x_n
so (x*)² = (lim x_n)² = lim (x_n)²
it's something you use when calculating the limit but it's so usual that the product of limits is the limit of the product that you don't really mention it
I dont have this anywhere though..
yeah because in math when something is applied in a such obvious manner you don't mention that you use it, but you're using it when you're doing the calculations
when you write x* = 1/2 (x* + a/x*) so (x*)² = a
the fact that you could just multiply by x* (and write this in the first place)
is exactly because lim(x_n)^2 = (lim(x_n))^2 (and lim x_n+a/x_n = lim x_n + a/lim x_n)
and x* = lim x_n
you're just not writing it but you're using it
nvm i've found where I implicitly used this
mb
lemme write it
so i dont lose marks lol

ive done the ratio test
i got lim n->inf (n+2)(x-5) < 1
inf < 1
and it equals inf when x > 5
so the interval is [-inf, 5]???
@drifting sandal Has your question been resolved?
does it look like its resolved??
You are forgetting the absolute value
You care about
lim |(n + 2)(x - 5)|
@drifting sandal
Yeah that's it
so how i find interval of converge?
Which values does 1/(1 - x) converge for?
depends on x
when 1/(1-x) < 1
so 1000 also works
which is not between -1 and 1

Would I not use the shell method for this?
why wouldn't you
Because I did and got a negative number
-45
But I don't see what's wrong with my setup
Oh I see an error in my factoring, -x cubed times -x, but that doesn't solve anything
What's the goal here? Compute the integral of h(x) from 0 to 3?
The goal is to find the volume of the given enclosed area between the two y functions revolving around x=3
I don't see what's wrong with my setup using the shell method
But the resulting output is now -5
I mean... (3x^2-x^3)(1-x) does not equal (3x^2-3x^3-x^3+x^2)
Or -10π I mean
Oh that's the error you saw?
You have the expected solution?
From my professors review answer key, the result should be 81π over 5
Ok, what's weirding me out now is that your graph of x^3 is ok but that of 3x^2 is not
your radius is wrong
Oh is it 3-x?
also graph is wrong, but 3x^2 >= x^3, so that component didn't affect the calculations
yes, that's what you should be using for the radius
,w 2pi * integral of (3x^2-x^3)(3-x) from x=0 to 3
Ahh, that's my bad, I don't know why I put 1, I know it's supposed to be the distance between the axis of rev and the rectangle
God bless 🙏

$$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = \frac{3}{4}$$
Given that:
$$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2xyz = k$$
How many possible values of k can exist where k is a positive integer
AgentSpiely
I have no idea how I am supposed to approach this question
Hmm okay
Any clue on how I could approach this?
I am thinking
AM-GM doesn't seem to help
Well 4|(3+8xyz) or u can say 2xyz = 1/4 + w for some positive integer w
right
And that w is a multiple of 4
are x, y and z integers or reals?
would be pretty boring if they are integers
oh, true
But xyz has a minimum and maximum, since x, y, z are on a sphere
You can use AM-GM to get an upper bound on (xyz)^2
Reals
What’s am-gm? 😭
a + b + c >= 3cbrt(abc), for all nonnegative real a, b, c
arithmetic mean vs geometric mean. very classic inequality
I have absolutely no idea what it is but I will surely look it up.
Tysm for your help guys
Btw if they were integers…then there would be no positive integer values of k right?
there would be no values of x,y,z itself
Cause then:
$$\frac{3}{4} = k - 2xyz$$
AgentSpiely
And obviously by subtracting an int from an int, we cannot create a fraction
Wait actually?
Ahh yes
Makes sense
integer + integer + integer cannot equal a fraction.

i am super confused by the image
the grey dashed lines is the original plane
the stretched parallelogram is the new transformed space relative to the original
how do you find the matrix from this tho
like this is in R^2 right
so im assuming you have some standard basis right
a matrix of a linear transformation is just the action of the transformation on a basis on the columns
like column 1 is A(e1)
expressed in e1,e2
column 2 is A(e2) expressed in e1,e2
so like first i should find the x ,y of the transformation right
wdym the x y
you need to find A(e1) and A(e2)
and then write the result inside a matrix
can i try then show you my work
go

@twin peak Has your question been resolved?
@twin sapphire
re
so thats a way
but you dont need to "solve"
a is always going to be the first cordinate of A(e1)
etc
its how we define it
0
1
mapped to
2
1
if that makes sense
how do you know which standard basis maps to which coordinate
wdym they give you a basis
you dont know if its the standard
and it doesnt matter
e1 = 1 e1 + 0 e2
oh like of the gray region?
no
but you sent me vectors
as if they were in R^2
but they're not necessarily
e1 e2 might be something else
wait so itis all wrong?
no
the calculations are the same its conceptual
you dont and shouldnt always think in terms of R^2
we want the matrix representation of A inside the e1,e2 basis
but was it goot to use a letter matrix
its not false but unnecessary
if you have something aloing the lines of "matrix representation of a linear transformation" inside your class material go re read that
