#

okay now whats the scaling factor from length to length

#

between the cylinders

dense tinsel
#

figuring it out

#

i mean it should be three

#

oh wiat it is 3

#

30

minor belfry
dense tinsel
#

oh wait

minor belfry
#

for the length to length

dense tinsel
#

30 * 9

#

= 270

minor belfry
#

uhhhm

#

what

dense tinsel
#

yes

minor belfry
#

nono

#

scaling between the two objects

#

is 3x right?

dense tinsel
#

dude it doesn't matter, i got hte right answer

#

yes it is

#

10 * 3 = 30

#
  • 9 = 270
minor belfry
#

alright i guess

#

it wont help u in future tho

dense tinsel
#

shit ok

#

lets go back then

minor belfry
#

it should be 10 * 3^3

dense tinsel
#

what was your plan

minor belfry
#

length to length is 3x

dense tinsel
#

yes sir

minor belfry
#

so to go from volume to volume

#

u do 3^3

#

so 3 * 3 = 9

#

10 * 3^3 = 270

mighty thunder
#

Why wouldn't it just be 30?

#

Ratios?

#

3:9
10:x

minor belfry
#

but since the 10 is a volume

#

u need to do the cubed ratio

mighty thunder
#

Oh, you're saying it's 270 cubed cm?

minor belfry
#

exactly

dense tinsel
#

wait a second

mighty thunder
#

Interesting

dense tinsel
#

it would be 10 * 3

#

and then multiply that by 3^3

#

right?

minor belfry
#

10 * (3^3)

#

if u were doing area

dense tinsel
#

OH

#

IM DUMB

#

OK

minor belfry
#

10 * (3^2)

dense tinsel
#

alright

#

last one brother

minor belfry
#

exact same process as last

#

but in reverse

mighty thunder
#

Actually, take the cube root this time of your answer

minor belfry
#

exactly

dense tinsel
#

can't we do proportions

minor belfry
#

proportions are if u are comparing the same unit type

dense tinsel
#

that's what our teacher taught us

#

ohg

#

oh

minor belfry
#

but because u are doing length vs volume

#

u need to do the equivalent scaling

#

length is 1d

#

volume is 3d

#

hence why u cube or cuberoot

dense tinsel
#

would it be 64/27

minor belfry
#

thats ur volume to volume

#

so then ur doing length not volume

dense tinsel
#

yeah to get ratio

minor belfry
#

so what do u do to 64/27

dense tinsel
#

^2?

minor belfry
#

u do cube root

mighty thunder
#

4/3 would he the cubes

dense tinsel
#

oh right

#

forgot abt that

minor belfry
#

cm^3 -> cm

#

if u cube root cm^3 u get cm

#

so yea, 4/3

dense tinsel
#

13.32

minor belfry
#

thats ur scaling factor for length

minor belfry
dense tinsel
#

wait a sec

#

stop

#

stop

#

stop

#

you square rooted

#

64/27

#

correct?

minor belfry
#

cube root

dense tinsel
#

or cube rooted

#

ok

minor belfry
#

volume

dense tinsel
#

ok

#

so

#

4/3

minor belfry
#

yes

dense tinsel
#

but why are we cubing? aren't we going up, not down?

minor belfry
#

we arent cubing

#

we are cube rooting

#

,w (64/27)^3

dense tinsel
#

sorry, why are we cube rooting

dense tinsel
#

and not cubing

minor belfry
dense tinsel
#

bro what im tripping so hard

mighty thunder
#

Remember in this problem we cubed to find the volume

In this one, we are given the volume, so by algebraic processes, we would take the cube root

minor belfry
#

and going down

#

into length

dense tinsel
#

do you guys realize im only in 10th grade

mighty thunder
#

I'm in 11th

dense tinsel
#

this world is brand new to me and im slowly losing my sanity

minor belfry
#

its alright

dense tinsel
#

alright wait so

minor belfry
#

ur both doing great

dense tinsel
#

what do we do with 4/3

mighty thunder
#

In 10th grade, I was teaching myself calc

minor belfry
#

times by ur length

minor belfry
dense tinsel
#

jk ur cool

mighty thunder
#

^

#

Lol

minor belfry
#

4/3 * 6

dense tinsel
#

right ok

mighty thunder
#

When you take the cube roots of the volumes,
You get 3/6 and 4/x

minor belfry
#

^^

dense tinsel
#

writing this shit down holup

mighty thunder
#

"Volumes" and lengths respectively

dense tinsel
#

x = 8?

minor belfry
#

i recommend u draw up squares and cubes

#

yes 8

dense tinsel
#

ok wait

minor belfry
dense tinsel
#

let me process this

#

im starting to extremely despise math

minor belfry
#

itll help u understand what ur doing

mighty thunder
#

Think about it as
27x^3 and 64x^3

dense tinsel
#

alright

#

im done

#

i dont want to see this school subject until monday afternoon

#

which is when my math class is

mighty thunder
#

Lol

dense tinsel
#

at 3:15 PM

#

this hurts my brain

#

you guys are genuinely life savers

#

ily

mighty thunder
#

Your welcome

dense tinsel
#

@minor belfry

minor belfry
#

its all good bro

mighty thunder
#

I also did learn something new. Lol

#

So, that was fun

shell hill
#

Solve sin (theta+60)= -0.75 for 0⁰<= theta <= 360⁰

shell hill
#

I got the answer but it's wrong apparently 🥲

#

theta+60= arcsin -0.75
theta+60= -48.59
theta= -108.59
theta= -108.59+180 ?

median dome
#

why + 180?

#

,w sin(theta+60 degrees)=-0.75, theta in degrees

warm shaleBOT
median dome
#

ok nvm

shell hill
median dome
#

yes

#

so wouldn't you add 360?

shell hill
#

why?

median dome
#

also there will be 2 solutions

shell hill
#

I got the other solution its 360- 108

shell hill
#

Whats the other solution

median dome
#

draw the unit circle, should make things easier

shell hill
#

I have this

Do i start by seeing how i could turn those constants with the t into a fraction where the t is the denominator and its negative so that the fraction becomes zero.

manic sparrow
#

need some help with electromagnetism

obtuse pebbleBOT
manic sparrow
#

here is the formula for magnetic flux ΦB=BAcos(Θ)

#

B is magnetic field, A is area

#

and cos theta is the angle....parallel to magnatic field and the coil or someting idk

#

if i increase B, A or change the angle, it will result in induction

#

idk if induction will increase or decrease if i do lets say cos 70

#

vs cos 0

brazen gorge
#

cos(0) is 1

manic sparrow
#

uh huh

brazen gorge
#

and that's the maximum value that cos(x) can have

#

so cos(70) must be less that that

manic sparrow
#

so if its cos 70, it will be less than 1?

brazen gorge
#

yep

manic sparrow
#

but what does less angle mean in this context

brazen gorge
#

at cos(90) it will be 0

manic sparrow
#

is the confusing part, will emf induction be higher or lower

brazen gorge
#

what's Faraday's law

#

relating emf and flux

#

$\varepsilon = -N \frac{d\Phi}{dt}$

warm shaleBOT
#

artemetra

brazen gorge
#

looks familiar?

manic sparrow
#

uh huh i know that one

#

wait

#

thats to calculate emf right?

brazen gorge
#

yes

manic sparrow
#

oh i guess we just input the values

brazen gorge
#

yep

manic sparrow
#

got it, thanks alot

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
scenic thicket
#

i solved first part and put it all on one side and don't know what to do next

sage geode
#

Could you show your work?

scenic thicket
#

sin^2x+2sinxcosx+cos^2x-4sinxcos^2x-1=0

sage geode
#

Right, and what's sin^2(x) + cos^2(x) equal to?

scenic thicket
#

1

sage geode
#

So that will cancel out with the -1

#

Leaving you with 2sin(x)cos(x) - 4sin(x)cos^2(x) = 0 and sin(x)cos(x)(1 - 2cos(x)) = 0

#

Can you do the rest?

scenic thicket
#

sin(x)cos(x)(1 - 2cos(x)) = 0 what did you do here

#

i mean

#

how

sage geode
#

Factor 2sin(x)cos(x) out

#

And divide both sides by 2

scenic thicket
#

THANK YOU SO MUCH

#

Okay so that's the augmented matrix

timid silo
#

first question asks us to eliminate the L2think2

#

any ideas

#

take note we can multiply L1 by any scalar

unique tendon
timid silo
#

where you did R2 -> 3R1 + R2 for example to eliminate an entry in Row 2

unique tendon
#

Hmm yeah okay

#

Ok so I don't understand what exactly they are asking to eliminate

#

Do they want us to eliminate C?

timid silo
timid silo
unique tendon
#

Okay so can we first multiply L1 by C

timid silo
#

good

timid silo
unique tendon
#

Like this?

timid silo
unique tendon
#

I multiplied by C

timid silo
#

ah multiplied by c, yh you do that on the side, we wont be changing L1 we'll be changing L2 with that multiple

unique tendon
#

Owh

#

Wait so how will we eliminate that C

timid silo
#

when you had

1 2 4 5
3 1 1 3

for example how would have gone to eliminate the second row

#

@unique tendon still with me?

unique tendon
#

Yess i am

timid silo
unique tendon
#

Ok so first

#

Ah my wifi is so baaad

#

Ok so we do 3R1-R3

#

Or -3R1+R2

#

@timid silo

timid silo
#

so that is applied to r2

#

we also know that $y_2=-\frac{3}{4}x_2+\frac{1}{2}$ and $y_1=-\frac{4}{3}x_1-\frac{1}{3}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Cycadellic

tiny seal
#

finally, we know that
$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{y_2--2}{x_2-1}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Cycadellic

tiny seal
#

from these four eqautions, you can find the four points

#

then the line is easy to solve from there

grizzled gulch
#

I will try to solve by that way💀

tiny seal
grizzled gulch
tiny seal
#

Its probably better if you solve for a variable from that and then plug that into another equation

tiny seal
grizzled gulch
#

Yeah 😢

tiny seal
#

I think if you can use trigonometry, the equations will be much easier to work with

grizzled gulch
#

which one?

tiny seal
#

All of them

#

They can be turned into right triangles, which would then share two side lengths

grizzled gulch
#

I'm seeing that the inclination angle of the line I want is a part of the other lines

#

so I maybe It could help me

They dont

#

i need help solving dont know where to start or what to do

native inlet
#

say BD is x, right?

nova yew
#

OK

#

sry all caps

native inlet
#

if BD is x, and you know DA is one of the sides of the square what is BA? thonk

nova yew
#

hmm

#

ba?

native inlet
#

BD = x, right?

#

and DA = 4

nova yew
#

yes

native inlet
#

it follows that BD + DA = BA

#

so what can you conclude about BAs length?

nova yew
#

ba = x + 4

native inlet
#

what is DE?

nova yew
#

4

native inlet
#

what is AC?

nova yew
#

12

native inlet
#

what is BD?

nova yew
#

x

native inlet
#

Now, since $\bigtriangleup BDE\sim\bigtriangleup EFC$ is follows that $\frac{BD}{DE}=\frac{BA}{AC}$

wait

After visiting the Titanic, Captain Brain and Mr. Pinky are taking the Alvin submarine back to the surface of the water. They start 1800 meters below the surface of the water, and ascend at 58 meters per hour. Note: under the water is a negative number.

Write an equation to model this situation (use m for meters and h for hours)

jaunty rover
#

Do you want an expression for their depth at a given time?

pale crown
#

trying to find an equation, sorry i havent done algebra in over 16 years

jaunty rover
#

okay-

#

so the initial depth is -1800 right?

#

negative because they said so

pale crown
#

correct. the wording got me off

jaunty rover
#

oh

#

okay

#

now

#

they ascend at 58 metres per hour

#

so in one hour they get 58 metres above

#

so their depth now is -1800 + 58

#

did you understand till now?

pale crown
#

following

jaunty rover
#

okay

#

so in 2 hours they ascend 58 * 2 metres

#

can you tell me in t hours how much will they ascend?

pale crown
#

i got 31.03

jaunty rover
#

No..

#

t is a variable

#

we need an expression right

pale crown
#

correct

jaunty rover
#

not a value

#

so we take a general case

#

at a time t hours

#

they will have ascended 58 * t metres

#

right?

pale crown
#

right

jaunty rover
#

yes

#

so their depth at a time t is

#

-1800 (initial depth) + 58t (the distance they ascended in that much time)

pale crown
#

so an hour later, they would be at -1742... is suppse i could use that to find the slope 😄

jaunty rover
#

we already have the equation

pale crown
#

i feel like im getting closer to what i need

Is this true?

obtuse pebbleBOT
jaunty rover
#

yes

#

d/dx( f(x) + g(x) ) = d/dx( f(x) ) + d/dx( g(x) )

tiny seal
#

Use definition of derivative
$\frac{d(f+g)}{dx}=\lim_{dx\rightarrow 0}\frac{f(x+dx)+g(x+dx)-f(x)-g(x)}{dx}$

bleak eagle
#

what are the line coordinates for the projective line determined by the xz-plane?

bleak eagle
#

I know i can do the cross product of two projective points to find the line coordinates for other projective lines, so can i just take two random points on the xz-plane and calculate their cross product?

tiny seal
bleak eagle
#

like in projective geometry

#

i can pull out the definition from my book if necessary

tiny seal
#

Oh, mb i have no clue

bleak eagle

no worries

Write a mathematical formula in your report giving the probability that a
k-mer at a fixed position in the original genome does not contain any mutation
in the mutated version for some value of p (the formula will use parameters k
and p).

static patio
#

genome is just a string consisting of letters A,C,G,T and k-mer is a subsequence of length k

#

$Pr(p,k) = (1-p)^k$

there's missing context, "the mutated version", or what p means

In this task we want to evaluate if Jaccard similarity on a full set of k-mers is a
suitable measure of sequence similarity. To this end, we will use randomly mutated
genomes for different values of mutation probablity p. We will consider 1-p as the
true genome similarity (the percentage of bases that were conserved) and see if
the Jaccard similarity is in some way related to this value.

  1. Write a mathematical formula in your report giving the probability that a
    k-mer at a fixed position in the original genome does not contain any mutation
    in the mutated version for some value of p (the formula will use parameters k
    and p).

gray tapir
#

how can i find the limit of this series B(n)

obtuse pebbleBOT
gray tapir
#

anyone?

warm canopy
#

write out the first few terms of the series

gray tapir
#

done that

warm canopy
#

okay then use the hint to get a closed form for B(n)

gray tapir
#

thats what i dont understand

warm canopy
#

what dont you understand

gray tapir
#

how do i get the closed form like you said using the hint given

warm dome
#

So that you can apply the hint to get the limit

gray tapir
warm canopy
#

also your expression for B(n) should be $\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{1}{(-2)^{i+1}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

ΣΑCu

warm canopy
#

not with an n as the indexing variable but with an i

gray tapir
#

right, thanks

warm canopy
#

then you might find it useful to write $(-2)^{i+1} = (-2)\cdot(-2)^{i}$

warm shaleBOT
#

ΣΑCu

warm dome
gray tapir
warm dome
warm dome
warm canopy
#

possibly, i was just copying their expression

warm dome
#

Though more complex that I originally thought, I will admit

gray tapir
#

writing the (-2)^(i+1) using the hint is my only difficulty

warm dome
#

Well the -2 is part of a fraction

#

And the enumerator is 1

#

So you could write (-1/2)^i for a start

#

One -1/2 can be factored out

#

The problem is that the sign switches for each i

#

For every odd i you have negative x, for each even I you got positive x

warm dome
#

So choose a sum for the even and a sum for the odd parts i suppose

#

So write one sum with 2i

#

And one with 2i-1

#

Change the n up a bit too. One for even one for odd n

#

For the odd numbers we have -2 multiplied

#

And then the same as the even numbers

gray tapir
#

im sorry but i dont seem to understand it

warm dome
#

Yeah my messages are all over the place

#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n}(-x)^i=\sum_{i=1}^n(-x)^{2i-1}+\sum_{i=1}^n(-x)^{2i}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

@gray tapir makes sense?

#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n}(-x)^i=-x^{-1}\sum_{i=1}^n(x^2)^{i}+\sum_{i=1}^n(x^2)^{i}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n}(-x)^i=(1-x^{-1})\sum_{i=1}^n(x^2)^{i}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n+1}(-x)^i=???$$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

@gray tapir try to take it from here

gray tapir
#

what is x in these cases

#

2?

warm dome
#

1/2

#

Your expression for B(n) should be $-\frac{1}{2}+\sum_{i=1}^n \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{i+1}$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

Which is the same as $-\frac{1}{2}\left(1+\sum_{i=1}^n \left(-\frac{1}{2}\right)^{i}\right)$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

gray tapir
#

yea i think im going to drop maths

warm dome
gray tapir
#

how are we using the hint here

warm dome
#

Right now we aren’t

#

We’re just reforming everything until we can use the hint

gray tapir
#

so the hint still calls for a positive x value right?

warm dome
#

Yes

#

Our x value is 1/2

gray tapir
#

but what about the negative sign

warm dome
#

x^2 is between 0 and 1

gray tapir
gray tapir
warm dome
#

We need to show that the limit is the same for the odd numbers for n

#

Otherwise we don’t know if the sequence diverges

warm dome
gray tapir
#

so the sum until 2n is found, so the +1 will just be the original thing added?

warm dome
gray tapir
#

yea i get that

gray tapir
warm dome
#

It will increase one of the sums by one more element

gray tapir
#

so itll be the expression we found earlier for even +1

#

i+1?

warm dome
#

I think it should be the odd numbers +1

#

So the sum from i=1 to n+1

#

Because then we have $x^{2(n+1)-1}=x^{2n+1}$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

So we’ve added the element we wanted to add

gray tapir
#

$$(1-x^{-1})\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}(x^2)^i$$

warm shaleBOT
#

daddyirani

warm dome
#

No cause we’re only adding one to the odd numbers, not the even numbers

warm dome
warm dome
gray tapir
#

do you mind doing a quick voice chat?

warm dome
#

Can’t do that rn sorry

gray tapir
#

alright no worries

warm dome
#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n+1}(-x)^i=\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}(-x)^{2i-1}+\sum_{i=1}^n(-x)^{2i}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

FirstNameLastName

warm dome
#

Can you figure out why this is the case?

warm dome
gray tapir
#

to get the odd values

warm dome
#

Yes

#

And be aware that we’re adding only one to the odd numbers

#

Because we’ve only added 2n+1 to the sum

#

Which is odd

gray tapir
#

now should this be simplified further?

warm dome
#

Yes

warm dome
#

Then we can simplify one more i suppose

warm shaleBOT
#

daddyirani

gray tapir
#

$$\sum_{i=1}^{2n+1}(-x)^i=-x^{-1}\sum_{i=1}^{n+1}(x^2)^{i}+\sum_{i=1}^n(x^2)^{i}$$

warm shaleBOT
#

daddyirani

warm dome
#

Correct

#

Now you could rewrite the odd sum such that it goes from 1 to n, not n+1

#

You see how we could do that?

#

If you don’t then that’s fine too

#

We can solve it either way

#

What we need now is to take the limit of the two sums

#

And see if they approach the same value

gray tapir
#

as n tends to $\infty$

warm shaleBOT
#

daddyirani

warm dome
#

Yes

gray tapir
#

the even sum approaches 0

warm dome
#

We’ve converted the expressions in such a way that you can apply the hint

#

Control result, as I can’t be as active rn: -1/3

gray tapir
#

No worries I'm going to have lunch as well

fervent cradle
#

yeah it's pretty easy to go from one to the other

#

cos(t) = sin(t - pi/2), remember

#

so if you get the Rsin(t + a) form that's just the same as Rcos(t + a - pi/2)

#

yes

#

sin(t) = cos(t + pi/2)

#

no it does

#

no

#

-3pi/2

#

?

#

it has to be /2

#

not /4

#

wait am i dumb

#

hang on hang on

#

wait i'm stupid!

#

nononono

#

ignore everything i said

#

sin(t) = cos(t - pi/2)

#

cos(t) = sin(t + pi/2)

#

oh god

#

i need to die now

#

shame

#

dishonour upon my family

#

ok ok the way to think about is that cos is like pi/2 ahead of sin

#

so you need to add pi/2 to the sin one

#

to get to cos

#

?

#

wdym

#

i mean, sorta

#

otherwise you have to switch the formula around i should think

#

it'll be different

vocal warren
#

yo

obtuse pebbleBOT
vocal warren
#

i need a bit of helo

#

if 6x+2y= 160

#

then how do you find x

#

if x+y = 50

#

<@&286206848099549185>

timid silo
#

Start by trying to eliminate y from the equation

#

Make the coefficient of y same in both equations

vocal warren
#

and how do i proceed with that?

timid silo
#

Subtract both equations

vocal warren
#

so 6x-2y=160-2y?

timid silo
#

No

#

Make the coefficient same

#

You have to remove y from the equation

#

Ok let's try another way

#

Isolate y in the first equation

#

What do you get?

vocal warren
#

6x-2

timid silo
#

When I said isolate y I meant Y= something

timid silo
vocal warren
#

im not sure i follow

timid silo
#

Ok

#

I'm gonna

#

Tell you instructions

vocal warren
#

ok

timid silo
#

First subtract 6x from both sides in the first equation

vocal warren
#

2y=160-6x

timid silo
#

Now divide both sides of the equation by 2

vocal warren
#

y=80-3x

timid silo
#

Good

#

Now

#

Put the value of y in the

#

Second equation

vocal warren
#

x+80-3x=50

timid silo
#

What do you get?

#

Ok

#

Now solve for x

vocal warren
#

80-2x=50

#

-2x=-30

#

x=15

#

ok

#

yoo thanks so much

timid silo
#

Ok

vocal warren
#

so thats how u do it

#

can u gimme another sum

#

like this

timid silo
#

Wait a second

#

7x + 14y = 18

#

6x + 2y =9

#

Solve for x and y

vocal warren
#

7x=18-14y

#

wait

#

14y=18-7x

#

7y=9-3.5x

#

y=18-7x/7

timid silo
vocal warren
#

/14 sry

timid silo
vocal warren
#

6x+18-7x/14=9

#

18-x/14=9

#

18-x=126

#

-x=108

timid silo
#

Wait

timid silo
#

As it was 2y in the equation

vocal warren
#

6x+36-14x/14=9

#

=26-8x/14=9

#

26-8x=126

#

-8x=100

#

x=12.5

timid silo
vocal warren
timid silo
#

6x - 14x/14 ≠ -8x/14

#

First cancel the 14's

#

What did you get?

vocal warren
#

36-8x/14=9

#

36-8x=126

timid silo
timid silo
vocal warren
#

5x+36=9?

timid silo
#

No

vocal warren
#

i thought we divide the term as a whole

timid silo
#

36/14

timid silo
#

Now you can multiply by 14

#

On both sides

vocal warren
#

but dont we divide it as a whole

timid silo
timid silo
#

We have to divide only 36-14x by 14

vocal warren
#

oh

timid silo
#

And sorry if the response takes time

vocal warren
#

but why are we not including 6x

timid silo
#

My internet is not good

vocal warren
#

np your responses are rapid

timid silo
#

The y value that we put in the equation, remember?

vocal warren
#

ohh

#

yeah

#

ok

#

6x+36-14x/14=9

timid silo
#

Now try it again

timid silo
vocal warren
#

6x+36-x=9

timid silo
#

36 is still divided by 14

vocal warren
#

ok myb

timid silo
#

No problem

vocal warren
#

6x + (36 -14x)14=9*14

timid silo
#

It was already divided by 14

#

So when we multiply by 14

#

It cancel out

vocal warren
#

6x + 504 -190 = 126

vocal warren
timid silo
vocal warren
#

ok

#

36-8x=126

timid silo
#

No

#

6x is multiplied by 14

vocal warren
#

oh ok

#

30+60x=126

#

60x=90

timid silo
#

No

vocal warren
#

96*

timid silo
#

6x multiplied by 14 is 84

#

subtract 14x

#

You get?

vocal warren
#

it becomes 60x

#

right

timid silo
#

No

vocal warren
#

myb

#

70x

#

lol dumb mistake

timid silo
#

Ok

timid silo
vocal warren
#

70x=96

#

x=96/70

#

its a long decimal

#

right?

timid silo
#

No

#

It's 90

#

Not 96

vocal warren
#

ok

timid silo
#

On the right hand side there was 126

vocal warren
#

x=90/70

#

yeah

#

i made a mistake

#

-36

timid silo
#

And on the left there was 36-70x

timid silo
vocal warren
#

ok

#

18-7x/7

#

9/7

#

its the same value as x

timid silo
#

And it's 18 - 7x = 14y

#

Put the value of x

#

Which is 9/7

vocal warren
#

18-7x/14

timid silo
#

Why is there a x

vocal warren
#

so 9/14

timid silo
timid silo
vocal warren
#

which is x/2

timid silo
#

Yeas

vocal warren
#

so the answer is 9/14 for y

#

and 9/7 for x

#

ok

timid silo
#

This method is called substitution

vocal warren
#

i got it now

#

yeah

#

i had a huge doubt

#

huge thanks man 😄

timid silo
#

No problem

vocal warren
#

i have an olympiad on tuesday

#

and i couldnt do questions like these

timid silo
#

Good luck!!

violet sentinel
#

hi there

woeful fulcrum
#

idk what i did wrong

violet sentinel
#

what have you tried so far?

#

ah

#

lol

#

So I would take a step back and relabel everything. Looks like you skipped a few steps and that might be why you're getting confused.

We will need to use the chain rule to differentiate with the volume. Do you see why?

#

We have dV/dt, we have the radius, but we need the growth in terms of dr/dt. So how can we do that?

woeful fulcrum
#

i used the chain rule but did i use it wrong?

#

do i need to find r'(t) instead of r(t)

violet sentinel
#

no but it might help to explicitly write this stuff out. For example, you write r(t) but what you meant was dr/dt.

woeful fulcrum
#

oh ok

#

lemme rewrite

violet sentinel
#

Sounds good

#

it's s simple fix, btw

woeful fulcrum
#

confusion

violet sentinel
#

The issue you have is that you did something wrong. You multiplied your radius by 2 when in fact you were supposed to squre it

#

you'll get a unit of cm^2 that way

#

you tried to square root one side, but you can't do that; you have to square root both sides.

woeful fulcrum
#

hmm

#

oh

violet sentinel
#

But you don't need to square root at all

woeful fulcrum
#

well i was confused because how do i get dr/dt in the equation then

#

oh

#

so radius isnt constant

#

ohhhhhhhh

#

i think i see

#

i confused radius being constant just cuz of it saying find the rate when radius is 2cm

violet sentinel
#

$\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2 \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}$
$\\ 2 \frac{cm^3}{sec} = 4 \pi (2 cm)^2 \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}$
$\\ 2 \frac{cm^3}{sec} = 16 \pi cm^2 \cdot \frac{dr}{dt}$
$\\ \frac{2 cm}{16 \pi sec} = \frac{dr}{dt}$
$\\ \frac{1 cm}{8 \pi sec} = \frac{dr}{dt}$

warm shaleBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

woeful fulcrum
#

okok i got the first part right

#

im gonna ignore the rest and try to solve on my own and see if get the same answer

violet sentinel
#

My only suggestion is to label things as derivatives (either with Newton or Leibniz notation)

#

like I did above

woeful fulcrum
#

so dr/dt is better than r'(t)

#

ik i wrote it wrong before but oopsies

violet sentinel
woeful fulcrum
#

okay i got it right

#

thank u so much

violet sentinel
#

yep np!

#

you were basically there lol

Let $(X,\mathcal{T})$ be a topological space and let $(Y,d_Y)$ be a metric space. Let $f_n:(X,\mathcal{T})\to(Y,\mathcal{T}_{d_Y})$ be a sequence of continuous functions. Let $x_n$ be a sequence of points of $X$ converging to $x$. Show that if the sequence $(f_n)$ converges uniformly to $f$, then $(f_n(x_n))$ converges to $f(x)$.

Does it suffice to show that $f$ is continuous?

warm shaleBOT
#

jsidind810

boreal spear
#

Since this theorem in Munkres:

#

Showing $f$ is continuous would mean showing that given any $x\in X$ and $\varepsilon>0$, there is a $\delta_\varepsilon >0$ such that $d_X(x,y)\Rightarrow d_Y(f(x),f(y))<\varepsilon$.

warm canopy
#

a topological space need not have a metric in general

boreal spear
#

Thats why im confused

#

Im not sure what to do

confused

#

ill post my work in a sec

#

i was confused when m^3/m^3 happened cuz i need m/sec

#

theres somethign wrong but idk what

pine barn
#

Well your using the wrong value for h

woeful fulcrum
#

OH

pine barn
#

You have to find the ratio between h and r :p so both of those values are wrong

woeful fulcrum
#

yeah i see

#

so 10m is irrelevant in this question

#

me when i dont read the question entirely 🤦‍♂️

pine barn
#

Nope it's still valuable

#

You need it to find r

woeful fulcrum
#

oh

#

so r isnt 2m

pine barn
#

It's 2m when the hight is 10m

woeful fulcrum
#

yea

#

but

#

when its 3m its not

#

?

pine barn
#

So you find the ratio to find what r is when h is 3m

severe reef
#

im pretty sure in this problem the radius of the cylinder is constant

#

you only have to worry about h

woeful fulcrum
#

logically i think if like water is leaking from a cylinder the radius doesnt change

#

but idk

pine barn
#

Oh yeah, I'm thinking of cones

severe reef
#

yes ofc

#

it doesnt change

#

the radius, that is

woeful fulcrum
#

okay

severe reef
#

check your differentation of V

woeful fulcrum
#

so i just repeat what i did before with 3m right

severe reef
#

why did that h remain there?

woeful fulcrum
#

instead of 10m for h

severe reef
#

$d(Pir^2 h)dt = Pir^2*dh/dt$

warm shaleBOT
#

Radiation 𝕏

woeful fulcrum
#

oh

#

why is the h removed?

pine barn
#

Product ruleee

severe reef
severe reef
#

no need for product rule here

severe reef
#

hence the dh/dt

woeful fulcrum
#

so instead of h(dh/dt) it just becomes dh/dt?

severe reef
#

yes

woeful fulcrum
#

ok

severe reef
#

tell me one thing, d(3x)/dx
whats this

#

its just 3 d(x)/dx or 3 right?

#

same goes here

woeful fulcrum
#

so

#

im doing the problem rn on paper

#

one sec

#

so would the answer be 4/4pi m/sec?

#

the only thing im confused on is why i didnt use 3m for height at all when solving

#

@severe reef

#

OHHHHHH

#

i see another mistake

#

since its leaking the rate would be -4m^3/sec as well

#

not positive?

severe reef
#

yeah

#

dv/dt=-3

#

and i suggest you to not worry about the units that much

#

math will take care of that for you

woeful fulcrum
severe reef
#

-4 my bad

woeful fulcrum
#

ohok

#

but why didnt i need to use 3m at all

severe reef
#

because the rate of change of height in this case is independent of the current height h
