this term wont consider all orders right
basically u have chosen E,E,A,N
from the scrabble box
u havent considered
the order u pick right
this is same as nCr for extra info
I thought if we did order doesnt matter, we would just multiply this result times 4 * 3 * 2*1
but then that wouldnt make much sense i guess
number would be too big
if order does matter u wud multiply with 4* 3* 2*1 that is correct if the letters were ABCD
im trying to emphasize that they have given A B but 2 Es
u cannot consider both of those Es as distint right
Hence why i was trying to do something with 5C2 earlier
ur logic is correct upto the choosing but for permutating heres the method ill try to be as clear as possible
but i didnt really know what i was doing
mhm that is correct only
keep it ike that
but u just have to multiple smtg extra
to account for the permutations
lemme explain
wait
bruh
im tryna type 4 underscores doesnt seem to work
3 of `
ok
with 2Es one A one N
the method is
first fill in the distinct letters
if we want to place 2 distinct things in 4 places
would u agree number of ways wud be 4P2
because it is indirectly permutations right
Yes
yes
so now we have filled the A and N
now all that is left are the two Es right
now the Es can just fill in the rest two empty spots
and u have a word
right?
Yes
for filling the two Es there are no permutations
because they re the same letters
and they re just filling the empty space left
so wud u agree if i say the number of words we can form is 4P2?
Yes but in this situation we are starting with 2 E tiles, and 1 A tile, and 1 N tile
right?
Given we have those tiles, what you are saying follows
yep
we have to arrange them in all orders
to account for all cases
of an ordered sample
Ok what's next
yep so now we found number of words with 2Eone A and N
now we have to go back
to get these letters at all
we have to find number of ways we can pick
2Es one A and one N
im assuming u understand how to get this right
is it going to be what i had basically in the numerator
u had it written right in the first image
yeah the 5C2 * 4C1 * 3C1
5C2 *4C1 * 3C1
mhm
yeah so basicall
we need to pick AND order them right
so just multiply this with the result we got above
So 5C2 * 4C1 * 3C1 * 4P2 ?
yep
if i didnt do any calc mistake
hmmm
just wait one second
there is smtg abt this which makes option (a) hard
we have number of favourable events
we need to find total events and divide them right
yes i had total events as 14P9, but i think its supposed to be 14P4? right?
yeah 14P4
hmm
i think we cant do just 14P4
one second
okay it is 14P4
no doubt
Ok revised version, do these numbers seem right?
hmmm sounds good

show that there exists a g in Z(G)\{e} such that g^p=1, where G is nilpotent and p is prime.
is this true, how would i go about this
pokedance
the original question was showing that a group being nilpotent implies all sylow subgroups are normal. the first step done was this
qylo!
@upper shuttle Has your question been resolved?
p can be any prime?
there must be more hypotheses
does p even divide |G|?

Before you is a board containing an m x n grid and a collection of outwardly blank tiles. There is one tile for every empty space on the grid, and whenever a tile is placed, the letter "C", "A", or "T" mysteriously reveals itself. Beside the grid, beams of light tally the numbers of each letter remaining. Below the grid, an inscription reads: "Tile the board without spelling 'CAT' and you shall be rewarded with a harem of catgirls. Beware, however, if at any point the word 'CAT' is spelled horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, the catgirls will maul you to death. Many adventurers have perished here before you; Continue at your own peril."
What are your chances of survival if you continue?

hiiii can anyone help me with limit stuff
send question
ok well heres the thing
So i did this quiz
and i click check my answeres and I got some points off but it dosent tell me whats actually wrong
so im going through problem by problem
i have a good feeling of what might be wrong but
like ok hold on
is anything wrong here?
no not really its a practice test for an upcoming exam its based on completion
but I wanna get them all right
oh are they
lemme check those
what's wrong with E?
oh is E positive infinity ?
it's approaching from positive side, same logic as d so yes
oh yeah it is
(i thought infinity was DNE 🪦 )
why x = 1?
there is another x, but not @ 1
no i still dont get it
what am i not seeing
theres one at 0 i know that
but if X-->2 from the right is infinity does that not mean there is an asymptote there
oh
im stupid
yes i read the graph wrong
kill me
is this right?
ok wonderful
i have more questions tho is that ok
sure
yuh
ah shit ok lemme re do 16
sure
(if it helps, the plot just looks like y = 1/x, but then shifted over to the left by 3)
,w plot y = 1/x
looks good to me i think?

ok so this question is super easy bc
i just did f(1) and plugged x as 1 and found that p = 2
but i dont understand what the answer key shows
so can someone actually explain the answer key??
so i get that u do long division
but how do u know that p is 2
also can i always do this?? will it always work?? bc why didnt the answer key do it as well...
Basically u follow the rules of long division with algebra
Multiply the quadratic and c-1 again is how I would get p after long division but idk what the answer is doing
x-1*
You know that all the terms have to cancel in order to be a factor
Using that info u can derive p using long div
but the way i did it would it always work for like x-k cases
ya that too
If you have factor that is linear
Only works with 1 as leading coefficient though
Why would you ever do long divison
For these problems
also i wanted to ask
when i write the division statement
do i need to factor the quotient
or is the quotient always not factorable..
bc i was looking at some of the questions i did and the quotients arent factorable
the "p+1-3" step is a bit confusing cause they're essentially skipping a step, note how in the second step, they multiply (x-1) by (3x) , and subtract ( (p+1)x^2 - x) by (3x^2 - x), but they put the result as (0 + 2x - 2)
yaa i sawwww i was confused where the 3 came from
its rlly weird
that is because, if (x-1) is known to evenly divide the original polynomial, the x^2 term must disappear at this step! in other words, the (p+1 -3)x^2 term they should have at the end must zero out. in other other words, the coefficient on that x^2 must be 0
so that is where they got the (p+1-3 = 0) equation from! if you know the p-1 has to evenly divide the polynomial, then you know that there has to be a zero on that step, which gives you that equation, because (p+1-3) is the coefficient on x^2 !
wow
yeah def not intuitive!
as for this part, in this question it does not seem you would need to factor the quotient, no
but what about in general?
in general, you only need to factor to find the roots of a polynomial, so if you are just asked for the quotient then you would not have to! if they wanted you to fully factor the original polynomial, for example, then you would, or if they wanted the other roots
so yeah the quotient is just looking for a polynomial, factored or not!
I see, thank you so much!!!
no worries! good luck!

hello! im currently stuck with measures of variation for my intro to stats, specifically this part of the formula, i am unsure of how my study plan got to the point of 30.5. these were my answers, as i am also following along on paper. thank you!
so you got the same for all the numbers you plugged in, but when you used the calculator you got a different answer?
ah well i believe i may be calculating the actual formula wrong? like the wrong order i guess? i get the same answers shown in the problem that plug in correctly, but actually trying to solve for s gives me a waaaaaay greater answer than the correct one shown in the example
i see! well, it should just be an issue with the calculator's interpretation of what you're putting in, then
i'll take some pics rq!
thank you, ill attach my work as well
i censored the language i wrote lol it helps me keep calm if i get frustrated
first i'd do the top part of the fraction, which gives me this
then the bottom, 11(11-1) is 110
so in the end, i just need to do sqrt( 102176 / 110 )
is it okay if u please explain how you got to this point as well?
idk who that is.... im sorry /.\ lol but i do like strawberry milk and cigarettes, def has some bangers
good for studying and relaxing to
sure, i just took this last part and broke it down, i started with the numbers on top here! i entered them onto the calculator as theyre written here, and i got 102176
ahhhh okay! i see! i was overcomplicating it. thank you!
no worries! good luck!
i continued the formula but got 928.87,,,,
am i still missing a step to get to 30.5?
did you take the square root of that? i have a feeling that could be it!
oh god is square root just division
no...
math is my absolute worst subject so sometimes i am starting off of the absolute first step
i dont understand how i got 930 before the 30.5 if the problem got 30.5 first????
i didnt even get the full 930.3 i got 928.87 :( its really frustrating
ill just settle for a second and retry a similar problem, now that i got the order of the first half corrected. thank you again!

isnt it opt c is also correct
it says "only"
@last cave Has your question been resolved?
but if n = 1 + 3k is correct, then the integers given by n = 1 + 6k are not the only solutions

Hi, I'm stuck on this past exam paper question and I've just got no idea what the question is asking me. What does it mean estimate?
What is meant by estimate is that to assume that the 2 arcs are lines and use the trapezoid area formula to calculate the cross section area
You know the formula of trapezoid area right?
They are written on the image
A and b are the bases of the trapezoid and H is the height of the trapezoid
Do you see that big shape as a trapezoid
You know that trapezoid have 4 sides right
yes
it has 5 sides so no
ohh
so for the first trapezoid it's 1/2 x (1.9+2.7) x 4
and then for the second its 1.2 x (2.7+1.7) x 4
Yes
and then i add those two together and it will give me the answer
Yeah estimation of the area
Why 18
18 is the answer from part a
Oh yeah
so 18 x 0.8 is 14.4
But you still need to do something else
do i then leave the answer as 14 since its 2 significant figures
This way you got the volume 14.4 m³
You haven't got the weight
Read the question carefully
Yeah because its density is 3.52 ton/m³
Yeah
ok one other thing
if i screw up the part in part a and i forget the formula on an exam
and then I use that answer to do part b, will I still get some marks?
alright well thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it
If you forgot the formula then you can calculate the area of trapezoid by dividing it to a rectangle and 1 or 2 right angle triangles
ohhhh
But that would cost you a bit more time
And I don't see that the formula is that hard
Do you know where that formula came from though
Yeah I know but on my last exam i really screwed up a simple formula and lost so much marks so I'm worried that might happen on this exam
I don't know
You know why that's the formula like the logical sense behind it
is it because the formula is made from like a combination of (bh) for a rectangle and (1/2bh) for a triangle and then it's like combined together?
I mean you can say that but there is a better explanation for it
Do you know what that part
(1/2)(B1+B2) Give
When adding 2 quantities together then divide them by 2
What is the result indicates
1.8
I am not talking about the question I am talking in general on the formula
oh
It would give you the average
oh yeah I learnt that awhile ago
And also in the same time the median
so it gives u the mean and median of the trapezoid?
So now I want you to imagine
Because it is the median it lies exactly at the middle of the trapezoid
Which divides the height into 2 equal parts
And also divide each leg by half
As seen in the picture
ohhh
Form that picture you can see that the left 2 right triangles are congruent right?
Because they got a right angle and two equal sides
The same goes to the right ones
yes
so if I can remember that it's the top + the bottom timsed by the height then I should be good on an exam right?
Because they are congruent I can cut them off from the bottom and attach them to the triangles on the above to make them form 2 rectangles by themselves on the corners
That would make the whole shape look like a rectangle which has the formula L*W
Here L is just the median of the 2 bases as we saw earlier
And W is just the height of the trapezoid
Did you understand where the formula came from?
@lyric cave
Ok yeah I can sort of understand that
so if you took the bottom half of the trapezoid and placed it upside down on the top then it would make a rectangle
and then it's that times the height of it which is bassicly the same thing as a rectangle???
Not the whole bottom half
Only the triangles on the bottom half
ohh
OHHHHHH
thats actually so easy to remember ok
so if I do that on a similar exam question, I'll ace it and get top marks
cooo
Thanks so much man I really appreciate it that's helped so much
no there's nothing else thank you though

i need help with this question
I just need someone to confirm my work
i placed the vectors in echelon form and reduced it getting c4 as a free variable which a identified as k
the reduced echelon form i got it
[ (1 0 0 1) , (0 1 0 (4-i/2)), (0 0 1 (2+i/2))]
this all is equal to [(x, 3x + (yi-3z)/2, x + (yi-z)/2)]
can you check if i did it right
this should solve part a
the span would then be to write this as a linear combination
This should solve part b
since we have a free variable in our Span X it is not linearly independant
in order to do that we remove that vector
we are then left with
after that we find a subset of X B which is a Basis of C3
what i did is the linearly independant set of values of X i named it as B
being linearly independent is one condition of being a basis another is to span C3
we know that X is a subset of C3
and Span X spans C3
we then found a linearly independant set of vectors from Span X and named it B
so B should also span X
then this implies that B spans C3
so it is a basis
so this solves d
now last part e
i generalised the basis using xyz
and got a unique solution
which also proves that B is a basis of C3
and satisfies e
can anyone confirm my findings
then i can sleep in peace

I need help with this inequality
I tried multiplying by a1a2a3 and it looks like I could use the rearrangement inequality, but sadly a1^2,a2^2,a3^2 neednt be in increasing order unlike a1,a2,a3, so that fails
@gloomy pelican Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
I can't offer a super useful hint, but I'd start using symmetries in some way
For example if f(x1, x2) = x1 + x2 + 1 / (x1 x2), then
LHS = f(a1/a2, a2/a3)
RHS = f(a2/a1, a3/a2)
Or, after denoting t1 = a1/a2 <= 1, t2 = a2/a3 <= 1, we want to prove
f(t1, t2) >= f(1/t1, 1/t2) for all t1, t2 from (0, 1]
alright ty ill try that
actually this was a very useful hint
this simplifies to (t1-1)(t2-1)(t1t2-1)<=0
thanks a lot @worn coyote

This is an optimization problem, can I ask why do you need to find the first derivative in order to find x?
You're finding the minimum of a function and when the derivative is equal to zero is where the turning points are
Here the derivative is zero at the maximum and minimum
actually you have a quadratic, and it's concave up because the leading coefficient is 1 = positive
so the minimum occurs at the vertex
which is at x = -b/(2a) = -40/(2 * 1) = -20
no need for calculus
based
but if you had any other function which wasn't a quadratic
then yes you need the derivative = 0 to find the maxima and minima
Ah that makes sense
Thanks

if im doing Gauss Jordan Elimination and
i have a 3 x 4 matrix, does the 4th column have a fixed answer?
or do i say "element of real numbers gg goodluck"
i get crazzzyyyy numbers in my 4th column because i thought they didnt matter
but a calculator gives me x1= -2/3, x2= 26/3,x3= -1/3, i thought i wasnt even supposed to be getting values here

I need help
Multiply by 12
Thanks
Now what
for the total you add up all the results
Ohhh
Multiply by 12 bcs of 12 months a year right
right
Thanks that helped me alot I was halfway in when I realized I made a mistake
Question:
Now that the Merkles know their yearly expenses, they need to plan for their savings. They would like to save $45.50 a month. How much will they have saved by the end of the year?
Monthly savings = $45.50
Yearly savings = $45.50 × 12 = $546.00
Mr. Merkle would like to cut one of his bills in half. He currently pays $75.40 for cable. If he cancels everything except for basic service, his bill will be reduced to half of what he currently pays. How much would he pay for basic service?
Current cable bill = $75.40
Reduced cable bill (half) = $75.40 ÷ 2 = $37.70
What would be his yearly bill for basic service?
Monthly basic cable service = $37.70
Yearly basic cable service = $37.70 × 12 = $452.40
checking....
don't worry, but keep on learning...
best wishes!!!!

am I done or is there more to do?
your work is a little hard to follow 
I can rewrite it or I can explain what I did
you can explain
I'll be okay I think
I can tell you factored the numerator, and then cancelled the (x - 2)s
but then idk what you did afterwards
for starters this is the problem I'm working on
sure
i found what you add to get -9 and multiply to get 14 and factored to end up with (x-7) and (x-2)
fwiw, the first thing I would do is change this into multiplication 😵💫
sure
you can turn it into multiplication?
,, \frac{4x - 8}{x^2 - x} \cdot \frac{x^2 - 9x + 14}{3x^2}
higher!
that's something you can just do?
Flip
,, \frac{a}{b} \divisionsymbol \frac{c}{d} \implies \frac{a}{b} \cdot \frac{d}{c}
ah
I don't remember the command
Oh
@bright bobcat this is smth you can do in general
a/b divided by c/d is equal to a/b times d/c
because division by a number x is just multiplication by 1/x
Y
so dividing by c/d means multiplying by 1/(c/d) = d/c
How
(available)
Yay
go to the available ones
Thanks bye
np
higher!
there we go
so I put the 3x^2 over the x^2 -9 + 14
,, \frac{4x - 8}{x^2 - x} \divisionsymbol \frac{x^2 - 9x + 14}{3x^2} = \frac{4x - 8}{x^2 - x} \cdot \frac{3x^2}{x^2 - 9x + 14}
wait
I messed up
higher!
there we go 
right
now you can factor everything and cancel
bru can someone after this help me pls
do I do anything with the 3x^2 or do I leave it as it is
so now factor everything out, cancel, and then multiply it all together et voila 
No one helped me there
please be patient
oh I'm supposed to multiply
indeed
I'm not sure I'm done with my previous problem
There was no one
you can focus on this one for now
is there any rule about crashing other peoples help channel 😕
i feel like people are being very rude
it's frowned upon, but no rule iirc
just stick the numerators together and the denominators together 
but!
you didn't finish simplifying yet!
hmmmm
,, \frac{4}{x(x-1)} \cdot \frac{3x^2}{x - 7} = \frac{4 \cdot 3x^2}{x(x -1) \cdot (x-7)}
higher!
this is what I mean
now you can see the x^2 in the numerator and an x in the denom
so time to cancel!
@unreal musk 
it would 
okay
,, \frac{3x^2}{x} = 3x
higher!

ah, I've got to go now 
@unreal musk do you mind making sure Cassie gets this through to completion?
thank you (:::
Careful with the denominator 
is this right :3

Yep, that’s all good 
thank you chartbit 
Awwww
I barely did anything but why thank you

Can someone help with number 2?
I don't know what that is but I thought it was probabilities
Yea it’s probability
This is the permutations and combinations unit
I know for 2b I’d use combinations since order matters
If you don’t know it’s okay you don’t have to help :)
what class is this
I´m in germany hahah
Oh haha!
I think that since there are 3/5 girls that would be the probability that the first one to show up is a girl
Since there are 4 people total left to arrive and 2 other girls need to arrive the prob that the second one to arrive is also a girl would be 2/4
And we would multiply these two probabilities to get the total so it would be 3/5 * 2/4
I guess so
it's a pleasure

any tips on doing this in python?
it's not really a python question it's a math question
compute the partial derivative $\pdv{f(x_i,y_i,a,b)}{a}$ by hand
aPlatypus
Oh I see
Is the -a * x_i a dot product or a multiplication btw?
x_i and y_i are scalars here
And in that case I think the derivative is 2(y_i - ax_i - b)(-x_i)
But it's confusing since they are vectors
part of vectors*
so what
I take an element out of my vector, it's just a scalar
Oh so its just normal differentiation
that's what your question looks like
It's like an AI course
yea
Whatd you think about my answer
doing that damn gradient descent
Kinda rusty
True that
Wait not yet I will code it first
Basically copy it like this?
def dL_da(x_vals,y_vals,a,b):
return (1 / len(x_vals)) * np.sum(2 * (y_vals - a * x_vals - b) * (-x_vals))

what do I do at this point
what’s the question?
(do you want it as a single fraction?)
What do you mean by "cancels" here? 
subtract x+1 with x+1
do common factor thing on denominator
u need it as one term?
Also
?
I believe so. . I'm not exactly sure because I've never done this before
do I multiply the numerator by the denominator of each fraction
how does that work
like on top it should be something like 2((x+3)(x+1)-((x+5)(x+1)
so everyone gets a term
divide it by (x+5)(x+1)(x+3)(x+1)
since you got common denominator to subtract them
I'm just a bit confused
think of it like this when u subtract 1/2-2/3
you would do 3-4 for the top part
but does 1/2 -2/3= 3-4
u need to get the common denominator
so I need to find the LCM on both sides
and then multiply the top and bottom by it
yes
so its 5 on the left and 3 on the right
for 1/2 - 2/3?
common lcm is 6 so u wanna get 6 on bottom
so u would do times 3 on left side both on top and bottom and times 2 on 2/3 bottm and top
I don't understand how it's 1/2 or 2/3
oh i was just comparing it to a problem to see how you would do your problem
so you understand the lcm and do it the exact samy way for your problem above
Just take LCM
I think the LCM is 5 on the left side and 3 on the right side
Multiply and divide the first term by x+3
And the second by x+5
Then the denominator will be the same for both fractions
when you subtract fractions the bottom ahve to be the same on both sides
multiply 5(x+5)(x+1)-3(x+3)(x+1) doesnt change anything
one side has x+5 other side has x+3
u wanna multiply right side by x+5 and left side by x+3
yes
you dont have to write it as 2 separate things as both denominators are teh same on both sides now
so you see how your denominators are both (x^2+15)(x^2+5)
you can wrrite it as one thing now
yes
2(x+3)-(x+5)/(x^2+15)(x^2+5)
thats why we did common denominator to combine the fractions without messing up its values
divide it all by (x^2+15)(x^2+5)
it would be helpful if I saw how that looked
yea i got u give me a sec
okay

Im trying to find the radius of a cylindrical object where I have been given four points detected by a perfect LiDAR system. The system has a FoV of 57°. I realise there is a lot of decimal places...don't worry about them. There seems to be something in my process that I have gotten incorrect and i'm not sure what.
Perhaps my assumption to add a value x to length d in order to make a right angle triangle to touch the other points on the circles circumference was incorrect?
<@&286206848099549185>
@fervent void Has your question been resolved?
I think it might be the 90° assumption for line d. As that would change the distances for the other sides attacted to the 1.78125° angle
Yeah I think I may have gone wrong when I added the "Let d be a horizontal line" as that would change the length of the other sides. If i did that the length x would actually need to be on the hypotenuse side.

is it possible for a function to not be an odd or even function but still have point/line symmetry?
Yes. For example, y = (x - 1)^2 is neither odd nor even, but is symmetrical about x = 1.
a function is even if it's symmetric about the y-axis and odd if it's symmetric about the origin. but a function can be symmetric about other lines or points

I really don't udnerstand why they impose this condition
probably so that $y'_p$ only depends on $y'_1$ and $y'_2$
Ginger
it seems like the reason will be more clear later in the text
(this is equivalent to the case where $u_1$ and $u_2$ are constants instead of functions)

C)
Rewrite it as 1/2 * ln(X + 2) / (X + 2) first
No substitution?
u = X + 2 after that should work out
Hmm
U sure not ln(x+2)?
What Will my dx/du be ?
The answer says substitute ln(x+2)
The nominator ln(x+2)
you took u = ln(x+2)?
Yes
du = 1/(x+2) dx
Yes
just apply it
What is dx?
take constant out
just integral of u
du = 1/(x+2) dx
I have dx
you took u = ln(x+2)
Yes
I have my u = ln(x+2)
The derivative of u = 1/(x+2)
Which is du / dx
Now i need my dx
Or have i been thpught substitution wrong?
I don't understand what you mean
😢
What is du ???
