yee
i end up with
x=4square root 125 over 5
positive and negative
i dont know what this question wants lmao
<@&286206848099549185>
You should get $$x = \pm \frac 1{\sqrt[4]5}$$
abs_0
my initital was f(x) = 10x^3 + 6/x
Oh, oops.
Never mind. Ignore what I just said.
Well, the initial problem said x cannot equal 0, so not x = 0.
Oh you’re right yeah
(30x^4 - 6)/x^2 = 0
30x^4 - 6 = 0
30x^4 = 6
x^4 = 1/5
hence what I got
How do you figure 125/5?
abs_0
Try to mimic this
not sure i put it into my calulator and thats what i get
im taking the root of both sides of the equation which leaves x=or-$$\sqrt[4]{125}$$
pancake
well its x^4 so im doing square root the square root of 1/5
You have $$x^4 = \frac{1}{5}$$ right? So if you take the fourth root of both sides you get $$x = \sqrt[4]{\frac{1}{5}} = \frac{\sqrt[4]1}{\sqrt[4]5} = \boxed{\frac 1{\sqrt[4]5}}$$
abs_0
@pastel lichen
hmm
Well, plus or minus that
i was just doing a square inside a square lol
Oh
Well our candidates for critical points are $$x = 0,\quad x = -\frac1{\sqrt[4]5},\quad x = \frac1{\sqrt[4]5}$$
abs_0
There can be multiple critical points, the question is asking for all of them
From the definition, it says a critical point must be a number in the function’s domain
They say the domain is “all real numbers except 0”
So x = 0 cannot be a critical point because it’s not in the function’s domain!
Are you following so far?
@pastel lichen
sorry i was trying to do the tutorial to explain it and its dumb
and yes that makes sense
Ah
0 isnt in the domain so its not a option
and im trying to see which of the others is in the domain ?
Ok cool and since the other two numbers are definitely in the domain, those are our two critical points
Yeah they’re both in the domain
also so like im doing this on a caluclator but it keeps giving me weird answers when i do something x^4=1/5 how do i get it to do the 1/4sqrt5 ?
Your calculator can solve equations?
yea sometimes lol
Oh
Wait so u put in x^4 = 1/5 and it gave you that weird 125 thing?
yes
That’s super odd
yeaa it was lol
What calculator is it
photomath on my phone lol
so my next one is f(x)=20x/25x^2+1 do i do that the same way ?
0=-500x^2+20/(25x^2+1)^2
-20=-500x^2
1/25=x^2
1/5=x
that look right ?
i didnt plug it into the calculator this time so it looks very simple haha
or ?
Wait this is unclear
Is it 20x/(25x^2 + 1)?
20x is the only thing on top yes
i got it right lol
i keep putting zeros even for some reason
i thought zero would be included if the domain is - infinty to positive infinity
Find the maximum and minimum values of the function y=6squarerootx^2+1 then -x at [0,3]?
what would i do here ?
i tried getting the derrivative then setting it equal to zero
and i got x= -1/6
idk how to do this haha
Well the denominator can never be zero, that’s why. No matter what you put in for x, x^2 will always be at least 0, so certainly 25x^2 + 1 will always be bigger than 0
well i meant the next problem lol
like i got 2 problems on this homework left but idk how to do them XD
<@&286206848099549185> can any1 help i have only 20 min left to finish this homework
@pastel lichen Has your question been resolved?
If there are maximum and minimum values, they must be critical values
So look for critical values of f, and then check which ones are maximums or minimums
i did and i got it wrong a few times lol

How do i solve for b?
@errant shale Has your question been resolved?
you know the x coordinate of the point you want to find
you gotta find the y coordinate
you also have the equation
@errant shale Has your question been resolved?
sorry for the late reply!
how do i start it off?
wait i think i get it, lemme write it down
ill send a pic here
Would it be like this? or
This was an example i found online but didn't quite get it but it looks like i can apply it
yes this is the way to go about it
Ohh alright, but why did they suddenly switch places?
Wasnt the 2500 the x and not the y?
they multiplied everything with 2500
which gives 2500 y^2 + x^2
and also multiplied by 900
giving
900 x^2 + y^2

i need help again but with my trig hw 💀
idk how to do this
well what's the range of sin
0 to 1?
not quite
8 and 0
yes
so i put it in as [0,8] ?
Yes
well sine is symmetrical around when it is max and when it is min
So first is sine symmetrical about the x axis?
oh so i just have to find the middle of the maximum and minimum value(?)
well the thing is that r is symmetrical at the same points as sine
this using polar coordinates translates into a symmetry axis
blue is r
orange is sine
oh
Now we need to test those 3 things
see how it's symmetrical around those max and mins
because they go on forever
towards either side
does the top reflect the bottom?
do you know what the r means?
i think so (?)
no i dont 💀
ohhh
in this case they gave r a function
and the idea is to find the symmetry of the shape
that is given with that specific r
ohh icic
so r would be symmetric over the y axis since r's the distance from the origin (?)
ooooo
r itself doesn't have any symmetry in the possible options unlike sine because it has been moved up by 4

$\int \frac{1+\sin(x)}{1+\cos(x)}dx$
Mohad
any ideas how to integrate this?
Product rule?
try using a trig identity for sin
Substitution?
one where you can convert sin into something with cosines
I don’t think that will work
I reached $1/2(1+t)^2$

So I'm supposed to find the m for which this equation has exactly one solution, I know how to solve it, more or less, but it's hard to check the answers for stuff like this online so could someone tell me if the m values are supposed to be 5/7, 3 and 1?
what equation?
ok so I got dis
so you are generally supposed to be confident enough to not "check stuff online"
so do let us know what type of equation this is
Quadratic with a parameter.
great
do you know which quantity determines whether the eq of this type has a solution?
Yeah delta.
If delta = 0 it has 1 solution, if the thing before x^2 is equal to 0 it also has 1 solution.
we generally assume that coefficient at X^2 is not 0, so good point
so what you need to find is when delta = 0 or m-1=0
which gives you m=1
and ?
you say 5/7 and 3
if you have a working out you can show it
and we are done
bruh
handwriting
ok
I will try to read
I mean, you can just tell me what the soution is, that's why I didn't send it right away. :'3

b= 3m-1

4𝑥³-7𝑥-3=0
How would you solve this if you never learned the cubic formula?
Have you done polynomial long division?
If you're given a factor, then yes divide it
Because then you'll end up with a quadratic and you can factor that

what does the second part of question b mean "determine the concavity..."
do you know what concavity is?
so what issue are you having exactly
in the 2nd quadrant
what does that mean
recall what the 2nd quadrant in a graph is
yeah i know the top left
but
i still dont know what im looking for
wdym solution curves in second quadrant
solution curves in general
i really dont get it
what exactly is the equation
dy/dx = 2x - y
i did
and what is that?
2 - 2x + y
alright
so you want to know when that is positive and when that is negative
that'll determine concavity, yeah?
oh so i just need the ranges?
like positive from - 2 to -1 or whatever?
idk
well yes, but your function is a lil different
you don't know anything about x and y in q2?
look at a graph maybe?
pick a point in q2?
thats a slope field
function always decreasing in quad 2
not the function
ignore the slope field
just picture a graph
what is true about x and y in Q2
they exist
(-1, -1
that's in Q2?
(-1, 2
ones negative and ones positive
right
so x is always negative in Q2 and y is always positive
so... looking back at your 2nd derivative
.
plugging in negative x and positive y, what will the 2nd derivative always be?
if no then what 
it cant always be negative
(-1, 1)
plug 'er in
positive
right
must have an iq of 70
up
concavity must have an iq of 70, yes
👍
does all solution curves mean all possible graphs with the derivative given
yes
im bad at math in the stupidest ways
how do u find the general solution
im having trouble isolating the y variable

How can I solve arccos(1/8) without a calculator
so if you know a cos that makes 1/2
can you figure out a cos that makes half of that 🤔
to be more precise
cos x = 1/2
cos ? = 1/4
hmmmmmm
I have some doubts you can get there.
Uhhh you could try some geometry
or maybe some trig identity that involves 4cos
I think the triple angle for cos does?

yh that sounds like the way
ah no not quite
🤷♂️
maybe double angle is good enough if u play around with it . ..
how will that work though
idk - u play around with some algebra
plug in cos x = 1/2
or 1/8
no, i dont see this immediately working
,w arccos(1/8)
OH nevermind
I am dumb
I didn't have to do this

why is this incorrect
@pastel forum Has your question been resolved?
Why do you say it is wrong?
How can i interpret a graph with percentiles on the x axis?
cuz someone told me its wrong
It seems correct to me
Ask them a value of x that doesn't line up with your answer maybe
So we'll know
its supposed to be -pi/2 < x < -pi/3 or pi/3 < x < pi/2
<@&286206848099549185>
,w sum k=0 to inf (2cos(1/2(pi/2+pi/3)))^k
It converges also for a value that is not in those intervals though
,w sum k=0 to inf (2cos(1/2(pi/2+2pi/3)))^k
im so confused
mark scheme says this
They are taking only positive values of cos(x), would you know why?
What is A1A1?
a1a1 is just marks awarded dw about it
but ye idk why they taking only positive values
should go till -1/2
Maybe it is because of part a) of the question?
bruhhh it is because of that
i didn't see the domain

how does this make any sense?
oh wait wrong ss
this
the first one is a partial sum as the index approaches infinity
and the second one is only evaluating the expression as the variable n approaches infinity
they are not the same
what is it am i getting wrong?
Partial sums and single expressions are two different things
yea i know as far as i understood the whole thing partial sums are the sequences value at an specific index
series*
Then what's your question
I think they’re saying a_n equals that fraction, and this text writes that lim s_n equals lim a_n
Which is not the case
Show the whole problem
how? to me that actually looks like the nth sequence term
They tell you it is
You're not tasked to find out what a_n is
They don’t tell you what a_n actually is
They do tell you its nth partial sum though
Which is that fraction thing
oh wait is that only the formula to get the sum at a certain index
Yes, that’s the nth partial sum
AHHHHH
Lolll
No problem lol

I need more guidance here. Why is this not 1^inf?. Why is it not just 1? And because of this, how do I best get this into a form where I can apply L'h?
1 + 6/x = (x + 6)/x. you could let the limit be equal to L and take the log of that.
or wait you could actually just use the exponential limit (if you know that)
$e^x = \lim_{n\to\infty} \qty(1 + \frac{x}{n})^n$
Navix
It is an indeterminant form of the form 1^inf, the problem is that it isn't the number 1, it is a number getting closer to 1. If it were actually the number 1, this would not arise.
If you want to use L'Hopital's rule, you would rewrite the limit as $e^{\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty} \frac{\ln(1 + \frac{6}{x} )}{\frac{16}{x}}}$
Hexicle
Thanks all. Gonna try to figure this out with these pointers. Im a bit out of my bounds here.
Got the answer, not confident I could replicate a similar problem without guidance yet. But very thankful.
I ended up using the L'H because this lesson was focused on taht, so I was assuming thats what they were expecting me to use. 🙂 I also dont think ive explicitly been taught exponential limit.
Appreciate the options regardless

Does the tabular/DI method work on integrals where neither function can be differentiated to 0?
if used appropriately yes
Yes, however you need to know when to stop it yourself, Tabular is just a quick way of doing IBP repeatedly
(and depends on the integral)
You’d stop after it gives you the original function then just use algebra to move it to the other side so it no longer repeats right?
Also, I saw someone use the tabular method for ln(x) but they did something weird where by the end instead of multiplying diagonally they multiplied across and I saw any example online of some different integral where they did that at the end as well.
I thought you were always supposed to go diagonally
yes
Though I'd frankly not use Tabular for stuff like ln(x), or e^xsin(x) or cos(x)
Yeah
Even though I shouldn’t use it for those, I’m still curious as to why he went across at the end
ask them
I can’t
It was a video
But I did see someone else do the same thing online
I’m very confused as to why didn’t generate the next u and dv so they could go diagonally
that's how you stop when you want in tabular
and they stopped there because x * 1/x = 1 which is trivially integratable
So if you don’t feel like continuing you just go across?
Thanks for the help!

Yo
So it says a limit may fail to exist when the function increases or decreases without a bound. What does this mean? An asymptote?
this is an example, yea
you can also consider just like, limits at infinity
so $\lim _{x \to 0^-} \frac 1 x$
jan Niku (Shuri for Honorable)
this fails to exist because its an asymptote
whereas something like $\lim _{x \to \infty} x$
jan Niku (Shuri for Honorable)
Hmm
Alright then what about
'The function oscillates between 2 fixed values'
Thats just like a jump discontinuity right
nah
this is probably limits at infinity right
well i mean, the oscillations
yea
so it doesnt make sense for a function to oscillate endlessly between two values at a point
well there are some esoteric examples of this
but probably more like
$\lim _{ \theta \to \infty} \sin \theta$
whats it equal?
jan Niku (Shuri for Honorable)
this is more oscillation in generally, this could be made to oscillate between points
say by like

Thats considered undefined right
yea, can you tell why?
whats it approach as theta gets big
Cuz it approaches an undefined point, that shit keeps goin
yea shit keeps goin
This be the limit
Accurate representation

This is hypothesis testing, confidence level, is this always true, regardless of what significance level may take?
And I also realized that we need to have k to be multiplied here, what is k? wouldnt [p -/+ sqr root()] be enough to find the tails at the end?

PQ and RS are two equal chords of length 24 cm each which intersect each other at A. AR > AS. If AQ :AP =1 :3, then show that AP+AR = 36 cm.
How to solve this question?
I just need to know how to prove it.
<@&286206848099549185>
uhhh what is the usual wait time here?
Have you tried to draw out the problem?
Visualising and referring to a diagram youve drawn would make it much clearer
lmk once youve drawn your diagram!
hello, i drew the diagram but i could not find the correct value of AR. the value of AP is 18cm for sure but how do I know AR is also 18cm? They only gave the ratio for AP and AQ.
I also have a diagram which i drew...should i send it?
There's this theorem called the Intersecting Chord Theorem. Have you learnt that?
Sure!
huh could u tell me?
so does this mean segment B = C?
B=C only if A=D
Both chords are equal, yes. But we can only be sure that the product of the sections AP.PQ=AR.AS
It may not necessarily mean that B=C
ok so does that mean AS = AP*AR/AQ
Using this theorem, you'd have to eventually solve a quad formula
or a better way to define it would be AS=24-AR
yeah i was going by the formula
Yup. And then you can sub it into the Intersecting Chord Thm

When Jorrel was born his father was 25 years old. Now, his father is 3 years more than twice his age. How old is Jorrel now?
Let Jorrel be x
Is the equation "2x+3-x=25" correct for this problem?
when you say "Let Jorrel be x" do you mean "Let Jorrel's present age be x"?
if so, then yes, your equation is correct.
yes :))

Haiya so doing this questions and ik that the square would be 4x but idk how to find what y would be
@slender flax did you do part a
kinda
Ok I’ll rewrite it here so I don’t have to look at that image
There’s a piece of wire 80 cm long, and it’s cut into two pieces. One of the pieces is bent into a square, and the other piece is bent into a rectangle four times as long as it is wide.
Would you agree that the square’s perimeter plus the rectangle’s perimeter would give you 80?

yo how would i explain this sequence in an equation? 2, 4, 7, 11, 16 you basically do 2+n 4+n 7+n and n increases every single number, so its 2+2, 4+3, 7+4
idk how to write it down as an equation and no, this isnt any kind of assignment, im just curious for myself. (not even sure if this is possible haha)
i know this is really wack question
you bascially want general term right?
@timid silo Has your question been resolved?
i guess but how would you write this down as a one liner
i mean
an algo or equation
idk how its called my bad
yes like a sequence, where you put values of n and you get the series
yeah
yup
it is similar to your sequence, where the second common difference is 1
ye
but is it possible
to describe the differences and its parameters
in a oneliner
its general form is quadratic
wait

trying to understand these notes, i dont know where the y^2 or the y' came from
you differentiate xy² as a product of (x)(y²) since they're both functions of x
idk what that means exactly sorry
ahhh, and how do they get the y'?
when differentiating y², use the chain rule
idk how you get y' from using chain rule though... can you run through the steps? y^(2x) differentiated becomes 2xy^(2x-1) i think?
dy²/dx = dy²/dy *dy/dx, the first is 2y, second is y'
oh you ignored the x in the y^(2x)?
ive just never done product rule with a value of v where to derive it you need to derive in terms of dv/dy and dy/dx which is confusing me, what those fractions mean confuse me, especially when you just make v = y^2 not y^(2x).
dv/dy doesnt make sense to me to be 2y? i thought it would be (2x)y^(2x-1)
and dy/dx i got no clue how u get y', i dont know what steps get to that
the derivative calculator doesnt help either by giving wrong and overcomplicated results
@devout hatch Has your question been resolved?
This is just called Leibniz notation. However if it is y²(x) = y(x)², then the result is what was on the board, if it was y(x)^(2x), then the derivative is indeed a giant freaking mess, here is a proof that the mess is correct (I'l let you guess whether it was y(x)² or y(x)^(2x)
I used y(x)=x² for simplicity to get a graph
and yet, and I didn't multiply by x, normally you find the derivative of xg(x) = g(x)+xg'(x), I only found g'(x)

Id like to ask for help on explaining how the result was achieved
according to desmos, turning point should be 3, but following the equations my lecturer has taught, i cant seem to reach what desmos suggests
okay so
the problem is already written in vertex form
meaning that the turning point is already stated in the equation
I'm just writing it down the given information for you, to try and make it easier
a = 1 [you can ignore this because it doesn't impact your turning point]
h = 3
k = 4
As you have the (h,k), you can just input the variables and there is your answer
I hope this helps

We are using maple as cad but anything else goes aswell

I have met with this symbol a couple of times in some functions and formulas and I have absolutely no idea what it means
integral over some area
Doesn’t that mean that it is equal to the area under a function graph?
And what does a function graph has to do with a physics formula for example?
An integral is much more than "just the area under a graph".

Question 13
I need help plz
Lol
Yea hold on
The 10 and the 100 dont matter as long as the distance is 10x longer thsn earth to soace
X and 10x?
Never assume things for no reason
But as long as its 10x does it matter the values i put
Since its same ratios
And also, you can show that the answer will not depend on x in that case
Yeah
So you gain more generality
Should i put 10 and 100 then
Okoo
Whats the next step herep
Im completely lost
Am i trying to find angle space
Cosine and sine
When i tried everytjing with 100 and 10 tho i was completly of
Is my drawing schematically correct
Ohhh
Wait
Am i trying yo find angle at jupitor
Ohh
Ok
Now i can use random nimber for x right
Or else its impossible to sllvr
Ofc
The book gave exact answer at the back
Ok
I got 3.488 and its right
I just usdd 10 and 100
@nova marsh @leaden ibex thank you for the help
sigh
Its what the book got aswell
So they wanted us to assume a value
Since its doesnt matter
But if i dont assume a value i cant get a exact angle @leaden ibex
how so
Cause theres no equals
Do the same as you did with the 100 and 10
@leaden ibex could u show me how you would solve it not assuming x
But with x and 10x instead
Ok
Now, if you can't arrive at the solution that way
your solution is wrong
And depends on your choice of initial x

a value of x for which the ans of polynomial will be 0
@thorn matrix That polynomial looks easy to factor.
idk how to factor polynomial
of degree 3
and that method wont come in exam
and i want to just get good marks in exam
Well, you can see that the x³ term has a coefficient of 1 and that x term has a coefficient 5 times higher.
OK, then you can divide the polynomial by x - sqrt(5).
Then it will be degree 2 and you can solve using quadratic polynomial methods.
when i divided
quotient was
x^2-2 root5 x - 15
then i need help in factorizing it
@thorn matrix Do you know the quadratic formula?
not yet
will be taught in a few months
OK, then the easiest way is to go back to the starting point.
x³ - 3sqrt(5)x² - 5x + 15sqrt(5)
Do you see how it has four terms?
And there's a pattern, the second term in each half has sqrt(5).
Do you see that pattern?
@thorn matrix
ok
yup
OK, so now we check whether the first half's coefficients are some multiple of the second half.
So, the coefficients are 1, -3sqrt(5) on the first half and -5, 15sqrt(5) on the second half.
You can multiply the first half by -5 to get the second half.
ok
Like 1 times -5 is -5 and -3sqrt(5) times -5 is 15sqrt(5).
basically, (co efficient of 1st half )*-5 = co efficient of 2nd half
Almost, -5.
But yes.
So, the exponents are two higher on the left half.
Actually, forget that.
So, we have x²(x - 3sqrt(5)) - 5(x - 3sqrt(5)).
Does it make sense how I got those?
yup
So, we have (x² - 5)(x - 3sqrt(5)).
One of the factors is linear, so we're done with that one.
is 1 zero
but why
Because we can write it as x² - sqrt(5)².
Then we get (x + sqrt(5))(x - sqrt(5)).
Does it make sense how the difference of squares factoring method works here?
Or have you covered the difference of squares factoring method?
i understand that you used the identity
Yes, and to use it, we need two squared things subtracted.
and 5 = sqrt(5) ^2
i know that much bro...
i am not that dumb
So, we use it here to get (x + sqrt(5))(x - sqrt(5))(x - 3sqrt(5)).
hmm
So, then the zeroes are just whatever we subtract from x in each of the linear factors.
So, in x + sqrt(5), we subtract -sqrt(5), so that's one zero.
And the other two are sqrt(5) and 3sqrt(5).
You're welcome.
