✅
you get 10^x / 4^x = (10/4)^x
a^x/b^x = (a/b)^x
It will become fraction is that ok? Like 2.5 are fine, or 1/4?
I still didn't got it, sorry
10/4 becomes 5/2
So keep it as (5/2)^x for now
Now think about what to do with 25^x/4^x
What we do?
25^x/4^x = (25/4)^x = ((5/2)^x)^2
Am I following the right path?
I know I might be too dumb, but I'm still learning, right?
Why are you multiplying?
I don't know what I'm doing.
- My mother language is different
So I'm kinda lost.
We actually never did Exponent Equations with fractions with teacher, lol..
Still have youtube tutors at least
\begin{align*}
2\cdot25^x - 5\cdot10^x + 2\cdot4^x &= 0 \
2\cdot\frac{25^x}{4^x} - 5\cdot\frac{10^x}{4^x} + 2 &= 0 \
2\cdot!\left(\frac{25}4\right)^x - 5\cdot!\left(\frac{10}4\right)^x + 2 &= 0 \
2!\left(\left(\frac52\right)^x\right)^2 - 5!\left(\frac52\right)^x + 2 &= 0 \
\end{align*}
A Lonely Bean
Now you have a quadratic equation where (5/2)^x is the unknown
That's what I needed, thank you
a lot simpler to understand
Can you also help me with Discriminant?
I've got -41, this is not good
<@&286206848099549185>
Oh, I wrote -25 instead of 25 because -5 x -5 = 25, not -25
Nobody will help me with this.

i need help on dipole movements
the bond S--P
is it ^δ-S --> P^δ+, or P^δ+ --> ^δ-S?
another question:
in this pair, which species is larger? (explain your reasoning in terms of the electron strucure of each species)
Mg^2+ or Mg
the more electronegative element will have the partial negative charge in the dipole
i can answer your second question though
yes plz
yes but my textbook says ^δ-S --> P^δ+
isnt it supposed to be P^δ+ --> ^δ-S?
not yet
i think my textbook might be wrong
im not sure though
the dipole movement points to the more electronegative atoms
so why is it pointing to the less electronegative atom in my textbook
is my textbook wrong?
can you post a picture of the problem and its solution?
it just says to draw a figure indicating the direction of the bond dipole, including which end of the bond is positive and which is negative
the bond is S--P
my text book says the answer is ^δ-S --> P^δ+
but i think it should be P^δ+ --> ^δ-S
the dipole should point to the most electronegative atom since it attracts more electrons
but maybe im missing something that makes the text book right
well it should look something like this
so my text book is wrong
okay thank you sm
may you help with the second question though?
in general, for the same element we would expect the species with more electrons to be bigger
yes

@molten yew Has your question been resolved?
the formula of the volume of a cylinder is V = pi*r^2*h
and the volume of a cone is 1/3*pi*r^2*h
using these, as well as the fact that the heights of the cylinder and cone are x and the radius is x, you can add the volumes of the two shapes to get the total enclosed volume
and by setting that expression of x equal to the volume they gave you, you can solve for x

I need help with finding the surface area of a certain shape I have a test on may 21 and i still don't know how to find the surface area can someone help
show
for future reference don't ask to ask, just ask the question
makes it faster for everyone
show what
the question??
give me shape
Yeah, what kinda surface? Like just a normal shape, or are you trying to use surface integrals? You might have to be more specific. Can you find an example of what you're asking for?
How to find a surface area of dimensional shape
Yeah, I know lol. I mean how? using what method? There are lots of ways to do this, but if your talking about just a cube or smth or something more complex where you have to use surface integrals there is an incredibly huuuge difference
In terms of difficulty anyways
wait a sec
@keen verge
so for every shape there has to be a different formula ?
Kinda. U pretty much just find the area of all the sides and add them together
is that easy ?
Depends who u ask ofc. In this case, it just uses a bit of trig. And then the bottom is just and square and the four sides are just triangles, so thise areas are pretty easy to find
wait am try to solve it and u check if it's correct ok ?
the answer is 33 am i correct ?
Nah, pretty sure it's like 99 or smth
what
Remember the area area of a triangle is bh/2
So you gotta find the height of the triangle
its 7
Using pythag most likely
alr i'm confused
No that's the height of the pyramid
can you explain in simple words pls if you don't mind
Sorry, I gotta get to my lecture. Maybe someone else can explain, otherwise just look up Pythagoras' theorem
U can memorise the formula or jst solve it on the spot
The area of this pyramid is made out of a 5x5 square base and 4 5cm x y where y is the height of the triangle
the teacher said she will give us a sheet of formula so we don't have to memorise
Realise that u can find y using Pythagoras
Oh then thats good
But its always better to know how to solve it without the formula
Break the question down and see what u know/dont know

how is the inverse wrong
plus/minus?
a function needs to be one-to-one to have an inverse, if you have a graph calculator at your side you can easily check for one-to-one'ness by graphing it and doing a horizontal line test
or you can recognize that it fails the one-to-one property because it's an even function

try taking out the F
i did it didnt work
also it seems you plugged in the wrong value of C
i plugged 5 and -10
show me how you did it for 5
you got it now?
yea
have a diff problem tho
i tried graphing this and it didnt make sense
<@&286206848099549185>
okay, increasing and decreasing has this very neat trick. you know about positive and negative slopes/gradients of lines right?
like y=2x+1 has positive slope/gradient, y=-5x has negative slope, etc
@ripe hazel
kinda
this is alg2
you could say the black line has a negative slope, and red line as positive slope right?
yea
and what a bout the green line?
0 slope
mhm
tangent to the point
so increasing means the intervals where the line has positive slope
i know that already
put the equation into desmos and it returns the values i re entered into the problem
but womp womp theyre wrong
so i messed up somewhere
did you try 1.15? maybe they're rounding down? is it expecting you to use graphing caluclator/desmos? I assume so
ill try rounding down
you can zoom in on desmos and it'll show more decimals

AD is double of DG
AB is double of BC
a vector = AB vector
b vector = AD vector
is there any additional information such as which vectors are parallel?
what have you done currently?
AE = a + b
EI = b/2 + a/2
FG = a + a/2 + b/2 ?
DH + EG = b/2
@frosty orchid I don't know if I am correct
AE and EI are correct, give me a second to think about the next two
👍
lets start on FG
oki
can you tell me what DF is?
or better how did you get to
FG = a + a/2 + b/2
cause that's pretty close and it's better if you use your method
ok
I know BC is half of AB and AB = a. So a/2 then I know DE is same as AB so its a. Then DG is same as b/2 because AD is b and AD is 2x longer
so a/2 + a + b/2
ok so I think that this is the one thing you are missing: vectors have direction
if you have DG is 1/2b so whats GD?
-1/2b
I think you know how to solve the problem
@me if you have any issues
so is answer -a -a/2 + b/2?
that is what I got
you got same?
yes
ok btw
this one i will check too
actually
i dont understand
because
DH + EG
It starts at D
and ends at G
so why cant i just go straigt from D to G?
which is b/2
if you look at the individual values of DH and EG you accumulate b/2 twice, but you are correct a cancels.
ok so
what i did wrong was i didn't use direction
and
I didn't look at each vector
?
yeah let me try solve this now
a + b/2 - b/2 - a + b/2
this wrong too
I went to DH
then I went from DH to EG
what are you getting for DH?
are you not calculating the intermediat value of DH?
whats that
DH = b/2 + a
o
bruh
i am supposed to do that
get the value for each vector
then add them togheter
I was going to DH to EG
ah I see you are probably missing a wierd vector fact, let me find a diagram
ok
hangon that was the wrong one
there it is
the weird vector fact is that vectors do not have a posistion
vectors only have magnitude (length) and direction
so you can think of vectors as being an offset from some point
in this case one of the points A through I
so when you add two offsets you start at the the offset of one and go to the offset of the second
yes
well if you say a point is 0, 0 then it's the same as storing a point because you are offeset from that point
that's a bit confusing lets see
you set some point in space as a center 0, 0 all other points can be offset (vectors) from that point
that's basicaly it
a vector only has how long it is and which way it is going
this is the diagram for DH + EG btw
the second one is how the vectors would be added
so what is point of position vectors?
as opposed to storing coordinates directly?

you just gradually add the numbers

because we only have enough steps to always go forward

7. None of the above
BDFE
Is the problem
Earlier I assumed the it’s a square
And this simple trig ratio to solve it
But the question gives no evidence that BDFE is a square
It cloud be a kite
3
3
@timid silo
ok
If it’s a square it’s simple, DE is 6800 and then just use tan30 * 6800 to find CE
But
It’s a kite

How do I find the point of intersection between two polynomial curves of different degrees?
These two for example
set the two equations equal to each other, then form a single polynomial equation
is the answer (.5, -6.25)
simplify and find the roots
no wait that wrong
That’s what I did
how ?
But there’s only one point of intersection when graphing
yes
you do derivative of both
and set them equal to each other
lemme solve on paper rq wait @umbral robin
ok
np 😂
Let me check
nah i dont think its right
yea it is
i got the imaginary roots
before i got the actual root
my fucking calculator bruh
yeah this image is correct
alright so it is the x-value of the root, thx
wonder if there's any other way to do it
When I put put in my Calc I get the imaginary roots
How do I got the normal one 💀
,rotate
oh, but can't there also be 2 separate points that have the same gradient?
well, can't use rational root theorem here, are you not allowed to use the polynomial solver function in calculator?
idk its just a question in our lesson notes that I'm looking over
probably allowed to use plysmlt tho
what is the rational root theorem?
im lowk confused
i think this might be wrong
any rational root of a polynomial equation with integer coefficients is of the form p/q , where p is a factor of the constant term and q is a factor of the leading coefficient
oh isn't that the product of the roots?
huh
isn't the constant term of a polynomial divided by the coefficient of the highest x^n equal to the product of roots
idk if that only works for quadratics or other stuff too
so like:
for a quadratic,
if you have roots alpha and beta, their product are equal to c/a
like so:
oh ok

okay so you got $-\frac{1}{2}x^2 + 2x + 6$ correct?
joren
you want to find the y-intersect, so you take x = 0, agreed? When the x is zero, the will intersect with the y-axis.
so you get $-\frac{1}{2}x^2 + 2x + 6 = 0$
joren
then first thing I'd do is get rid of the minus a half like so: $x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0$
joren
oh wait, I mixed them up myself. But just fill in x = 0: $-\frac{1}{2} \cdot 0^2 + 2 \cdot 0 + 6 = 6$
joren
all good i knew what you meant
and the for the x-axis intersect, solve the thing I showed above
x axis intersect?
yeah where the function intersects with the x-axis
i think the paper you showed asked for it
but looks like you already found them
you'd solve $-\frac{1}{2}x^2 + 2x + 6 = 0$, rewrite to $x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0$ and then unbind it into factors: (x - 6)(x + 2)
joren
so your x=6 and x=-2 is correct
that works as well, takes more time
do you know how to unbind into factors?
when looking at this quadratic form: $x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0$ the goal is to find two values that when you multiply them with eachother, result in -12 and when added into eachother result in -4
joren
in our case:
-6 * 2 = -12
-6 + 2 = -4
so our factors are -6 and 2 which you write like (x - 6)(x + 2) or (x + 2)(x - 6) and then you instantly see, x = 6 V x = -2 as solutions

So
ok like write down how many solutions for 3sinx= 2cos x right
how do i know
and then like what does it mean to solve
Is there an interval
Or just
Any solution
any solution i think
???
uhhh sorry
Ok
Degrees, I'm assuming?
yes
im assuming these might help
i have written down 3sinx=2sin(90-x)
but idk what to do
Tanx=2/3
And since tan X is positive for two quadrants
that makes 2 solutions?
Yes
ok so
solving
it says something abu havinga tleast 1 decimal point
ow
how?

hi, need help with 9
If you use 9 can you also use 6?
you're right
Lol
i’m getting the feeling it’s something like
case where you disclude 9 + include 9 x2 for 6
or smth
yeah 3 cases
but when I try, it’s off
you use neither
Or you don’t use either
yep
Yeee
you need to multiply by n
4×3 counts numbers that start with 9
n times would inclide numbers that end with 9, or have nine in the middle

hi i’m having trouble with 14b
i can see from each point, there are 2 congruent triangles, so I thought that it would be 8x2-1
but the answer is 23

<@&286206848099549185> the first q is fine can I have help with this instead
i can cook better than this lentil soup and rice
If all 6 students choose the same flavour, that can happen in 4 ways (4 flavours)
Similarly, if 5 students choose the same flavour and 1 person doesn't, that can happen in 4 * (3 * 6) ways: 6 ways to choose the person who doesn't choose the same flavour, and 3 flavours left after 1 is chosen by all the others
4^6 - 4 - 4 * 3 * 6 = 4020

So I'm trying to prove this inequality seen at the top in the photo by induction for positive integers greater or equal to two. I've done some attempts as you might see but im just not getting any where. "HL" and "VL" is swedish for the right and left side respectively.

Ye
I should probably clarify one thing here, I realised that not everything fit in the picture, this is only the inductive step
So in the original problem k+2 is actually k+1 and k+1 is k

Hi whats equation for this
remember how you used to write the equation of a line as Y = mX + b?
do the same here except instead of Y use $\log_8y$ and instead of X use $\log_4x$

hi
Is there any way to solve for exponential equations? similar to quadratics
Using logarithms
No
Something like
lemme type
8^{x}-2^{\left(x-5\right)}+4^{\left(x-1\right)}-4^{\left(x+2\right)}-2^{\left(x-5\right)}
yes
expand it
also
...
look that you can transform
in
common base
2^3 = 8
2^2 = 4
Yes
then what
cuz i kinda figured a way to solve them
then after common base you can just not write the base anymore
Then my math teacher said it was rubbish
then solve like a normal equation
like 3x -(x-5) + 2(x-1)
like this>
yes
Alright
What if there's no common base
depends
i need example
ok
= to what
in this case expand
so write
Do you know that is not an equation right
=0
3^(x-1) = 3^x - 3^1
huh
use the expansion i just wrote
for each of the parantheses
no
what
ok then use logs
but
u cant
3^(x-1) = 3(x) /3
if it equal to 0
no
3^(x-1) = 3^x * 3^-1
yeah
Which is the same

Hi guys, learning set theories. In Demorgan's law, how does the intersection change into union? What have I done wrong in my proof attempt?
There's a mistake in your derivation from first line to second line
the \notin does not distribute to B union C?
Like this is what I found online. From venn diagram, I understand its basically the opposite of the union, but in terms of my above equations/proof, doesnt seem to make sense
if I am not in (chickens U potatoes) then i am neither a chicken nor a potato. this means that I am not a chicken, and i am not a potato.
$x \notin (B \cup C) \longleftrightarrow x \notin B \text{ and } x \notin C$
hayley
wait doesnt Union refer to Or, Intersection refer to And?
$x \notin (B \cup C) \longleftrightarrow x \notin B \text{ or } x \notin C$
Infinite Moms
Shouldnt it be like this?
no? read my explanation and see that it matches what i wrote
union refers to the elements that are in either set; intersection refers to the elements that are in both sets
they do in some sense map to or/and, but that can be deceptive
let us try an example
Is Demorgans law so special that it ignores the definition?
Im reading Munkres Topology
let us look at an example
Sure
suppose B is the set of all even numbers, and C is the set of all odd numbers
now what is B u C?
All even and odd numbers
hayley

Everything that is not all even and odd numbers
I cant think of an actual number sorry
Ok irrational numbers?
we just need one example tbh
Ok then let it be π
okay, so we've established that $\pi \notin (B \cup C)$
hayley
and as you can probably see, $\pi \notin B$ and also $\pi \notin C$
hayley
everything seems to be working so far
Yes, makes sense
hayley
Yes
okay. what about $3 \in B$ and $3 \in C$? which of those are true?
hayley
only $3 \in C$
Infinite Moms
yeah, so we have that $3 \notin B$ and $3 \in C$ (which means that "$3 \notin C$" is false)
hayley
so let's look at your thing
you said: $x \notin (B \cup C) \longleftrightarrow x \notin B \text{ or } x \notin C$
hayley
if we look at this for 3, we see that $\green{3 \notin B} \text{ or } \red{3 \notin C}$
hayley
Yea
green statement is true, and so the "or" is considered true
which means that $3 \notin (B \cup C)$ is true
hayley
Yes
but.... 3 is in B u C
But isnt this a contrapositive statement?
Idk if it affects much...
it's a bidirectional arrow
Same as this right?
yes
now as for your question about demorgan's law
it essentially "flips" or/and:
it states that $\neg (p \wedge q) \Longleftrightarrow (\neg p) \vee (\neg q)$
hayley
"not (p and q), is the same thing as, (not p) or (not q)"
and the same is true the other way around:
"not (p or q), is the same thing as, (not p) and (not q)"
So, basically not (p and q) has the meaning of 1. not p, 2. not q, 3. not p AND q
no it does not
it means not (p and q)
p might be true
q might be true
but they're not both true
an example:
p = "i eat a hamburger for lunch"
q = "i eat a salad for lunch"
if i say "not (p and q)" it means that i only had one thing (or nothing!) for lunch
ooooh set theory
which is what I said earlier, implying 3 meanings?
Sorry I need some time, because what I have read and what you are saying has a teeny bit of contradiction😭
no, there's only one meaning: i didn't eat this for lunch
i might have had this, though:
Can it be interpreted this way:
p = "i eat a hamburger for lunch"
q = "i eat a salad for lunch"
z = "non-mentioned food for lunch"
If i say "not (p and q)",
it means I either
CASE 1: Ate p;
CASE 2: Ate q;
CASE 3: Ate z (Which is not P nor Q)
sure, or i ate nothing at all
the point is that either i threw the burger in the cook's face, or i dumped the salad on the ground, or i might have done both
This is not a good example but I get what you mean
So Demorgans basically said lets just flip and/or
how about you make up your own? it's lunch time and i am hungry as you can see
because you could've thrown the burger in his face, or you could've eaten part of the salad and dump it on the ground
I tend to question these scenarios sorry
you should also make one for the other way around, the "not (p or q), is the same thing as, (not p) and (not q)"
like this scenario is "Not P", "Not Q", "Not P and Q"
ok pause
the third one is "not P and not Q"
or to be super clear, "(not P) and (not Q)"
my mistake, "P and Q" instead of "Not P and Not Q"
Alright back to my question,
Demorgans law basically
changes "And" to "Or"
changes "Or" to "And"
Is that it?
the one you mentioned
yes, essentially. it converts "not-and" to "or-not"
Alright I understand now
and converts "not-or" to "and-not"
Im going to go see why he did that now
You can eat burger king or MOS burger instead of McDonalds
better burgers
Thanks and have a nice lunch
i don't think i want to eat a moss burger, but thank you for your suggestion
? Mos burger is a restaurant
I live in Asia so you might not have it (?)

how do you do this?
question 14
Distribute it
Start by expanding the parenthesis
And keep in mind what vectors being perpendicular tells you about their dot product
That's not all of the terms in the expansion, but, yeah, it simplifies to |u|^2 + |v|^2 + |w|^2
Not sure why you set that equal to |u| |v| |w|cos(theta) though
yeah, i realized mid way and decided to skip
what should it equal then?
oh
oh
its the same term
What do you mean?
In this case yeah, |u|^2 + |v|^2 + |w|^2 = |u + v + w|^2
But with the information given you can simplify |u|^2 + |v|^2 + |w|^2 first
how
Read the problem again, what is stated about u, v, w besides them being mutually perpendicular?
oh their value
ok ok
The values of their magnitudes, yeah, namely |u|, |v|, |w|
You should know how to calculate |u|^2 + |v|^2 + |w|^2 now
how do i do that lol
Again, you are given the values of |u|, |v|, |w|, so you can simply plug them in

am i done?
Just a quick 1^2 + 2^2 + 3^2 = 14 and yeah, you are done
this is the anwser
tho
Well, it's wrong then
Also a dot product of a vector with itself can't be negative, so that is clearly a mistake in the book

I don't have the work with me right now but I'll redo it and send it in a few mins
I used this to set it up
@mild blade I hope it's fine I'm pinging you
well revolving around the line x = b is more like revolving around the y axis
usually cylindrical method is easier in those cases
It’s fine
Sorry, I went somewhere
There are two semi-circles here
And you are putting wrong limits
As, y is not going from 0 to b, its limit would be -a to a
Subtract this area from orange area to get the light red area in the last image
You only included thia area
Which would give you the volume of this area revolving around x=b
i see, thank you.

Just need help, should be relatively quick. I need to know whether or not (0,0) is an inflection point here or not. I already have (-1,0), (-0.447,0), (0.447,0), and (1,0) has my inflection points listed here.
there are 3 infection point in that graph
one is at 0 and is at about 0.7 and the other at aprox -0.7
i cant see the numebrs well so i cant give excact numbers
take second derivative and find the zeros
those will be the infection points

do you know what you're doing...?
Is this channel open?
available channels are at the top of the list under math help (available)
unless you set things up so that they are hidden
then why did you need to ask where my calculation was?
bro, its absolutely fine to admit you're out of your depth, but do not pretend you know how to do something in the hope of teaching others
Looks like you're first trying to find an mle of alpha. The test statistic T here doesn't make that much sense to me unless you give me a null hypothesis that it can "test"
Are you sure you're not searching for an estimator of alpha here?
the question goes
- find likelihood
- give sufficient statistic (which I assume is done by using Factorisation Theorem)
- find MLE of alpha
I'm on the second part
there is no hypothesis to test
Then T isn't needed
What's the sufficient statistic?
You've found the likelihood function tho that's good
This is the only part I need
