#

Oh to have an inverse?

slow skiff
#

Yeah

astral ivy
#

I thought generally when someone says f is invertible, they mean it’s both left-invertible and right-invertible

#

Just like “associative”

slow skiff
#

Should probably look those terms up

#

We learnt about inverses in discrete math before calc

#

in dm it had to be a bijection, but in calc, only an injection was enough

astral ivy
#

I mean yeah

#

I’ve only taken calc 1 and 2

slow skiff
astral ivy
#

And we never ever dealt with invertibility

#

Or injections or surjections or any of that

#

But it makes sense that calc only cares about left-inverses

astral ivy
#

Wait I’m like

#

Forgetting what a left inverse means

#

Why is that sufficient? I don’t know why I just said that it makes sense

#

g(f(x)) = x, right? Not necessarily f(g(x))?

slow skiff
#

Hmm...

#

Oh but

#

You can restrict the range R to the codomain and its surjective then

#

Right?

#

Instead of having f: R->R, do f:R->R* where R* subset R

#

and for every f(x) in R* you have an x in R that maps to y=f(x)

#

=> f is surjective?

astral ivy
#

Yeah

#

Ohhh

#

I feel like this relates to partial functions

#

Which is also a calc-only thing

slow skiff
#

What are partial functions?

astral ivy
#

It’s like a function, but not every element of the domain has to map to something

#

It’s like how f(x) = 1/x is considered to be R -> R

slow skiff
#

It is?

#

huh

#

No wait

astral ivy
#

Well not literally

#

But like

#

A partial function is often used when its exact domain of definition is not known or difficult to specify. This is the case in calculus, where, for example, the quotient of two functions is a partial function whose domain of definition cannot contain the zeros of the denominator. For this reason, in calculus, and more generally in mathematical analysis, a partial function is generally called simply a function.

slow skiff
#

Aha

#

"a partial function is generally called simply a function"

#

Lets define a whole term that we wont even use

astral ivy
#

lmao

#

That confused me for a while

#

So

#

If you think of functions instead as partial functions

#

Then for a “function” to have an inverse, it only needs left-invertibility

#

That didn’t really make sense lol

#

Whatever

slow skiff
#

No no

#

It does make sense

astral ivy
#

I still don’t get why calc only cares about left-invertibility

#

Oh rly

strong sinew
#

What's even the question ;-;

slow skiff
strong sinew
astral ivy
#

I edited it to what we’re talking about rn

#

Oh, bruh the pinned message is glitched

strong sinew
astral ivy
#

Reopen it

strong sinew
#

I think the bot glitched

astral ivy
#

Yeah

slow skiff
astral ivy
#

Hmm

#

What even is an inverse

#

Lemme draw this

#

I have absolutely 0 intuition right now

slow skiff
#

if f:A->B and f^-1: B->A

f: [0,2]->[0,5] w range [0,3]
f^-1 : [0,5]->[0,2]
but f^-1(4)=??? because it's not a surjection

slow skiff
#

oh god ive confused range and codomain

slow skiff
astral ivy
#

Oh... g isn't a function

#

But if functions are really partial functions, then f and g are perfectly good inverses!

slow skiff
#

No, I don't think it is ok to do these definitions under partial functions

#

Also, didnt it say partial functions are functions? Not the other way around o.O

astral ivy
#

Ok here's my question: f is injective. That means there exists a function g such that g(f(x)) = x for all x in X. I've drawn g here, so what does 2 map to?

astral ivy
slow skiff
astral ivy
#

Wait can't I just make 2 map to whatever and it still works

#

Yeah

#

Oh

slow skiff
#

But then it's not an injection

astral ivy
#

The definition doesn't care what g is

#

Only that g(f(x)) = x

slow skiff
#

Oh right

#

Well yeah that's the way to go

#

I think I'm having some discrete math class flashbacks

astral ivy
#

Ohhh

#

Yeah

slow skiff
#

Here's a question though...

astral ivy
#

f can't possibly satisfy f(g(x)) = x

slow skiff
#

If f is an inverse of g, isnt g also an inverse of f?

astral ivy
#

Depends what you mean by inverse

#

Left and right inverse?

slow skiff
#

left is injection right is bijection?

astral ivy
#

No

#

Left is injection right is surjection

slow skiff
#

ye ye i just googled it

astral ivy
#

See the diagram, g is surjective so it can only have a right inverse, f (which is shown to the left of g)

#

God the diagram is very frustrating sometimes

#

Considering only the first 3 circles

#

f is on the left of g, but f is a right inverse of g

#

Man...

slow skiff
#

Hhahhaha

#

Ok I see

#

Anyway

#

We take codomain=range in calc

astral ivy
#

Wdym

slow skiff
#

So they're surjective by default

astral ivy
#

Like set the codomain to be the range

#

?

slow skiff
#

Yes

astral ivy
#

But in every calculus text I've seen, it talks about arbitrary functions f : D -> R, and they're including f(x) = x^2 in this theorem/Lemma/whatever

#

Ok I think

#

For sine, people understand that it doesn't have an inverse on R, so they don't call it "sin inverse" they call it "arcsin" (emphasizing that it is a different function). But everyone generally understands that injective functions like e^x have an inverse and so there's no name change

slow skiff
#

Ahh!!

astral ivy
#

What is it

slow skiff
#

I agree it's just that im having trouble typing sth

astral ivy
#

oh lol

slow skiff
#

I thought we were talking about functions not needing to be surjections to have an inverse

#

That is, the left right w.e one

#

Oh right

#

So then f: [0, +inf) - > R, f(x) =x^2 doesn't have a two sided inverse

#

I see what you meant with that now

#

Although what I meant was that we take it as a two sided because we make it surjective by restricting the codomain to the range

#

Those are my final thoughts

astral ivy
#

Ah yeah

warm shaleBOT
astral ivy
#

God I hate typing on mobile

slow skiff
#

Right

#

But thats because the domain is R^+-{0}

#

so x cant be negative on the right side

#

if it were

#

e^ln(|x|) then itd be |x|

#

with domain R

#

which is also why
f(x)=e^ln(x)
is not the same function as
g(x)=x

astral ivy
#

Ah

#

Wait am I tripping

#

Isn't

#

Uhhh

slow skiff
#

Yes?

astral ivy
#

Oh I suppose it makes sense

#

e^ln|x| = |x|

#

Cause (red then green) : R+ -> R+ is really the identity on R+

#

So it doesn't matter what the blue function is, as long as its range is R+

slow skiff
#

Well...

astral ivy
#

So then we could say for any function b: D -> R+, we have e^ln(b(x)) = b(x) for all x in D

slow skiff
#

Yep

astral ivy
#

Hmm

#

Pretty pictures

#

I need to go play some stupid mindless game now

slow skiff
#

It's good cause I can barely read so I like looking at pictures

astral ivy
#

Literally

slow skiff
#

Although your pictures are confusing a lil

astral ivy
#

How so

#

Oh cause domain of ln x isn't R

#

But the circle includes all of R

slow skiff
#

Yeah

#

But it's fine

#

It gets the point across

#

x)

astral ivy
#

Okay so in short: Calculus doesn't care about right-invertibility because you can make any injective function surjective by restricting the codomain to the range at any time, and the function itself wouldn't practically change. However, if you've got a surjective function and restrict the domain so that it's injective, it's not really the same function anymore, because then you can't input as many numbers as before. Thus inverses must have a left inverse, but don't have to have a right inverse.

slow skiff
#

Yep

#

That's the conclusion

astral ivy
#

Awesome

#

That makes sense now

slow skiff
astral ivy
#

Haha ok

#

Thanks for the discussion

#

See ya

slow skiff
#

Bye

karmic vale
#

how do i prove that |a|=0 iff a = 0?

obtuse pebbleBOT
karmic vale
#

i know that it's really obvious but i don't feel good without a proof

#

and i know there's a property of the absolute value that says
|a|=0 <=> a = 0 (Positive-definiteness)
but how can i prove that?

twilit loom
warm shaleBOT
karmic vale
twilit loom
#

hmm, does it make sense if I say if we prove $\abs{a}=0\implies a=0$ and prove $a=0\implies \abs{a}=0$ then that proves your iff

warm shaleBOT
karmic vale
#

would appreciate if you can prove that

twilit loom
#

well let's try a = 0 => |a| = 0 first

karmic vale
#

alright

twilit loom
#

so we have a = 0, then it's clear that the absolute value of a is...?

karmic vale
twilit loom
#

if a>=0, then |a|=0 or |a|=a?

karmic vale
#

if this is true, then what you said is also true i believe

twilit loom
#

by the absolute value definition if a>=0, then |a| = 0

karmic vale
#

i did a typo

#

i meant if a>=0, then |a| = a

twilit loom
#

now |a|=0 => a=0

karmic vale
#

|0| = 0

twilit loom
#

that doesn't quite work, you seemed to have used the to-be-proved statement in your proof

karmic vale
#

wait did I?

twilit loom
#

you said 0>=0

#

but we don't know that a=0 yet

karmic vale
#

ohh right

twilit loom
#

unless you meant the 0 in |a| = 0? but that doesn't tell us much since in |b| = 2, 2 is greater than 0 but b could be -2

karmic vale
#

ahh yeah

#

good point

#

so we still don't know if a is only 0 if given |a| = 0

twilit loom
#

you could consider that |a|=b => a=b or a=-b (edit, we only need to consider the forward imp)

karmic vale
twilit loom
#

yup, does that make sense?

karmic vale
#

aren't we kinda losing information? like the a>=0, then |a| = a or if a<0, then |a| = -a?

#

or is that not needed

twilit loom
twilit loom
karmic vale
#

is that true?

twilit loom
#

|a| = b? I think you meant |a| = 0

karmic vale
#

|a| = 0 if and only if a = 0 or a = -0 = 0

twilit loom
#

perfect

#

so |a| = 0 if and only if a = 0 or a = -0 = 0 and by the absolute value definition if a>=0, then |a| = a. so if a = 0, then |a| = 0

#

thus, |a| = 0 iff a = 0

karmic vale
#

ahh

#

thanks a lot

gloomy carbon
obtuse pebbleBOT
gloomy carbon
#

I don't know what to do next

minor pilot
lethal sand
#

is this after or before you differentiated?

gloomy carbon
#

The x^2 + y^2 is before I diff

lethal sand
#

ok then, try again from the begining

#

remember, once you have started differentiating both sides, you differentiate both sides at once

#

also remember that y is a function of x

#

meaning the derivative of y wrt x is not simply 1

gloomy carbon
#

Okay lemme try again

#

I got this but what should I do after that? Should I transpose?

lethal sand
#

again, the derivative of y with respect to x is not 1

#

the derivative of y wrt x is dy/dx

#

if you are still having trouble, i'll do half of this for you as an example. In this problem, the derivative of x+y is not 1+1, but it's 1+dy/dx. Or for example, the derivative of y^2 is 2y*dy/dx

gloomy carbon
#

Oh okay you multiplied y' to the y variable as d(u)

lethal sand
#

yes, aka the chain rule

gloomy carbon
#

Ohhh okay, now I get it. Thanks!

gentle turret
#

What are some examples of theorems that were derived from the idea that there are infinitely many real numbers?

onyx spoke
#

what exactly do you mean

#

do you mean there being infinite real numbers in any line segment on the real number line

#

or that the real numbers go on forever

gentle turret
onyx spoke
#

well

#

limits to infinity wouldn't be as useful

#

because you could only do them on sequences

gentle turret
#

Why could you only perform them on sequences?

onyx spoke
#

but the real numbers not going on forever implies the natural numbers don't go on forever

#

so actually you couldn't

#

so you literally couldn't do limits to infinity

#

this would mean you couldn't have taylor series

#

which are incredibly important

timid silo
#

when u rewrite numbers as polar form can’t we get infinite answers for everything

timid silo
#

might be a stupid question

#

like 2 = 2e^i2pi

#

if that’s even right

leaden ibex
#

What do you mean by infinite answers?

#

$e^{i\phi} = \cos\phi + i\sin\phi$

warm shaleBOT
#

Remavas

timid silo
#

well 2kpi

#

turn 360° we get same point right

leaden ibex
#

yes, cosine and sine are periodic

#

so is $e^{i\phi}$ consequently

warm shaleBOT
#

Remavas

timid silo
#

why does re^i*t work so easily

#

or better, how does it work

#

why is it cost + isint

timid silo
#

a bit too complicated for me i think

leaden ibex
#

It's just the good old power series for e^x

timid silo
#

wikipedia makes everything complicated

leaden ibex
#

and you plug ix in

timid silo
leaden ibex
#

You didn't have calculus yet?

timid silo
#

we do other stuff in school

leaden ibex
#

Well, it can be shown that $e^x = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Remavas

leaden ibex
#

using calculus

#

Without knowing it, I can't further elucidate this

timid silo
timid silo
#

OKAY i’ll look it up

leaden ibex
#

Unless you know calculus, you won't understand where it comes from

#

but you are free to try

onyx spoke
#

for example
1 = e^(2n i pi)

timid silo
#

yea

onyx spoke
#

for n any integer

timid silo
#

yea

onyx spoke
#

you're correct

timid silo
#

u cool

#

both

leaden ibex
#

And once you know taylor series

#

You can come back and understand where Euler's formula comes from

fierce lagoon
#

I think that would be easier then trying to use the Maclaurin series for exp(x)

timid silo
#

help

#

what’s that

leaden ibex
#

$e^{i\pi} + 1 = 0$

warm shaleBOT
#

Remavas

timid silo
#

yea

#

but i mean the maclaurin thingee

fierce lagoon
#

I mean, i would just sneak around and then just use Euler's identity

leaden ibex
#

Without calculus you probably wouldn't understand it

#

(maclaurin series)

timid silo
#

what do u mean with calculus

leaden ibex
#

I mean calculus

timid silo
#

oh

fierce lagoon
#

you can rewrite 2e^(2iπ) as 2e^(iπ)^2

#

And then that's just 2(-1)^2

timid silo
fierce lagoon
#

No

#

Because I'm rewriting e^(2iπ)

timid silo
#

yes

#

multiply powers

fierce lagoon
#

= (-1)^2

leaden ibex
#

But I mean that won't give him any insight into why it works. Might as well just use Euler's formula instead then

#

$e^{2i\pi} = \cos2\pi + i\sin2\pi = 1 + 0i = 1$

warm shaleBOT
#

Remavas

timid silo
#

ya

#

i watched a series about calculus 1 but he didn’t talk about power series

leaden ibex
#

I have no idea when the taylor expansion is taught under the calc 1 calc 2 calc 3 classification

#

Since I never took it in that format

timid silo
#

oh okay

leaden ibex
#

calc 2 it seems

fierce lagoon
#

Calc 2

#

Calc 2/BC is when it's taught

#

That's what I'm taking rn lol

timid silo
#

ooo

fierce lagoon
#

But, if you're like me and try to find shortcuts and shit, just know that e^iπ = -1

leaden ibex
#

the equivalent of it anyways

timid silo
#

cool

fierce lagoon
#

It'll become extremely useful

timid silo
#

yea it is

5%?

#

or 33%

rain coral
#

i dont really get how i am meant to differenciate e^x

#

do i differenciate 4x first?

#

and then i differenciate e^x

violet compass
#

here's an example

#

e^2x

#

2e^2x

#

again would be

#

4e^2x

rain coral
#

ohhhh

#

so i just sorta ignore the x

violet compass
#

sorta

rain coral
#

so for me it would be 8e^4x and for d2y/dx2 32e^4x

violet compass
#

so your answer is B

rain coral
#

yep

#

thanks

violet compass
#

lemme show you a little tool

rain coral
#

but for some like if e appears in a product rule, do i differenciate e first?

violet compass
rain coral
#

oh lol

#

and for antiderivatives

ok

Hi, so if 2²=(-2)²
Than √2²=√-2²
The root cancel the square so
2=-2? Is there's something I'm missing here

#

Step 2 is wrong

#

And also

#

$\sqrt{x^2} = |x|$

warm shaleBOT
harsh valley
# warm shale **.nai**

Yes i know the answer is always positive, so this means that i have mistake with the brackets (order of operations)

#

Like i should have solve (-2)² first which is 4 or something else

slow skiff
#

Yes

harsh valley
#

Oh thx

winter heron
#

Hey guys I’m doing this assignment where u have to leap and calculate a launch angle. Is it the angle ur about to leap of the ground or when ur first in the air?

spiral maple
#

the launch angle is always measured from the horizontal

#

regardless of how high you launch it from

winter heron
#

So it’s from the ground?

spiral maple
#

from the horizontal..

#

oh you mean the angle they launch from

#

they launch (within approximation) straight up

winter heron
#

Like cos I have to leap right, I recorded myself in slow motion but idk which angle is the initial launch angle

#

so I’m not sure

#

@spiral maple

spiral maple
#

Yeah I'd think the launch angle is 90, cause it's straight up.

winter heron
#

the launch angle should be less than 90 under any circumstances right?

#

@spiral maple

obtuse pebbleBOT
#

@winter heron Has your question been resolved?

royal solar
#

but draw a curve and tangent to your curve at 0

#

easiest thing you can do is find the length you traveled and your max height

winter heron
#

But like is it the angle at which I’m about to leap at?

#

cos idk

royal solar

long phoenix
#

can someone help me get the function

#

from the graph

#

i got (x+6)(x-3)(x+3) but its not right

languid shard
#

u need to have f(0)=-9

#

just multiply a reasonable constant

long phoenix
#

how would I use f(0)?

#

or the y int.

somber vapor
#

Try putting in x=0, y=-9 in the function you get from multiplying (x+6)(x-3)(x+3)

long phoenix
#

if x=0, then using my function you get -54

#

which I need to divide by 6

#

so do i just put ((x+6)(x-3)(x+3))/6

somber vapor
#

I think so :)

ok got it!!

inland thicket
obtuse pebbleBOT
inland thicket
#

guys

#

the first way is wrong

#

but i dont understand why I have to first do factorisation

#

in order to solve limits

brave bramble
#

0/0 isn't 0

inland thicket
#

hmm

#

so first way is also correct but its impossible to do it that way ?

#

because error 404

brave bramble
#

The first method just didn't get 0, but then pretended it did

#

So I wouldn't say that's "correct", no

inland thicket
#

so 0/0 is just impossible to calculate

#

therefore it cant be done that way

brave bramble
#

If you get 0/0, that's a hint that the limit may exist, but you'll need a better method

inland thicket
#

hmm

brave bramble
#

Often, cancelling something is the way to go

inland thicket
#

Ok

#

when x--> infinity

#

I just divide everything by the biggest x

#

is there explanation for that

brave bramble
#

Sometimes, haha. Depends on the limit in question

inland thicket
#

like i had this let me find

brave bramble
#

For example, limits with sqrts often don't use this trick

inland thicket
#

this is my test

#

i solved it right

#

but i dont get it

brave bramble
#

So multiplying by x^5/x^5 is like multiplying by 1. You're always allowed to do that.

#

Then, you have the lower x^5 cancel out the numerator

inland thicket
#

but why is it allowed when x-->infinity

#

and when x-->1 i need the different method

#

because if i gotten a task with x-->1 i woulda failed

#

i just thought its dividing by biggest x

brave bramble
#

You did skip a step. You do have this missing:

#

$\frac{2 - \frac{4}{x^2} + \frac{3}{x^4} - \frac{3}{x^5}}{1 - \frac{11}{x^4}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Kaynex

brave bramble
#

So when you divide top and bottom by x^5, this is what happens

#

When you allow x to get very large, every term that's divided by an x goes away, leaving 2/1

inland thicket
#

howcome 11/x^4

#

and others

#

oh ye

#

its like

#

dividing numbers exponents go in subtraction right

brave bramble
#

Because $\frac{-11x}{x^5} = -\frac{11}{x^4}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Kaynex

inland thicket
#

ok ye

brave bramble
#

Now, this "disappearing act" only works because x is getting very large

#

If x is just approaching 1, this method doesn't work anymore

inland thicket
#

hmm

#

im trying to imagine this

#

how can it dissapear if its very large

brave bramble
#

$\frac{2 - \frac{4}{x^2} + \frac{3}{x^4} - \frac{3}{x^5}}{1 - \frac{11}{x^4}}$

warm shaleBOT
#

Kaynex

brave bramble
#

So you agree, you have this after dividing top and bottom by x^5

inland thicket
#

yes

brave bramble
#

If x is really big, then something like 4/x^2 becomes really small

inland thicket
#

oh yes

brave bramble
#

Every term with an x below it becomes 0

#

Leaving 2/1

inland thicket
#

ok like

#

basically what im trying to do with this

#

is determine the limit on y axis

brave bramble
#

,w graph \frac{2 - \frac{4}{x^2} + \frac{3}{x^4} - \frac{3}{x^5}}{1 - \frac{11}{x^4}} between 0 and 10

brave bramble
#

So you can see on the graph how it trails off to the right

inland thicket
#

yeah

brave bramble
#

It is slowly getting near y = 2

#

Which is the answer to your limit

inland thicket
#

wait is the y horizontal

#

y axis

wanton dagger
#

I need help with finding the domain and range for the first question. I found the inverse though.

lone jetty
#

Talking about part a?

wanton dagger
#

The inverse function:

wanton dagger
lone jetty
#

Sure

#

So you know what the domain is?

wanton dagger
#

It’s all the x-values that a function can have?

royal solar
#

and range ofc

lone jetty
#

So can you think of a number that can't be cubed?

wanton dagger
#

0?

lone jetty
#

0^3 = 0

#

0 * 0 * 0

wanton dagger
#

Ye

lone jetty
#

So it can be cubed 🤷‍♂️

#

So there just .. isn't a number you can't cube

wanton dagger
#

Yes

lone jetty
#

So then if the function is cubing

#

And you can cube all numbers

#

We know the domain is ...

wanton dagger
#

-infinity to +infinity

lone jetty
#

Yes, but you would write it as $$x \epsilon \mathbb{R}$$

warm shaleBOT
lone jetty
#

x is in the set of real numbers

#

(I can't latex well)

wanton dagger
#

Oh so how about in interval notation

storm bronze
#

i think in a lot of highschools they don't require that notation

#

so interval notation is fine

lone jetty
#

I can only talk about what we do in the UK 🤷‍♂️

storm bronze
#

yeah makes sense lol

lone jetty
#

If they accept -infinity < x < infinity

wanton dagger
#

Ok

lone jetty
#

And then the range, can you think of a number you can't take the cube root of?

wanton dagger
lone jetty
#

So you're saying that no number, when multiplied by itself 3 times, equals 0?

wanton dagger
#

No I’m saying the number 0

lone jetty
#

So the cube root of 0 is 0?

wanton dagger
#

Ye

lone jetty
#

So it is valid?

wanton dagger
#

Yes?

lone jetty
#

Yes. The cube root of 0 is 0

wanton dagger
#

Ok

lone jetty
#

0 cubed is 0, therefore the cuberoot of 0 is 0

#

So... all numbers can be cuberooted

wanton dagger
#

Yep

lone jetty
#

Therefore..

wanton dagger
#

Yes

#

Y x R

wanton dagger
#

But y….

#

Is all real numbers

lone jetty
#

Yep

wanton dagger
#

Ok I get it

#

Thanks

well hello, i'm kinda stuck on my math homework about solving a murder mystery. the lore is basically:

you have arrived at the murder scene at 4:35 am. theres the lead detective there and he says he's been there since 3:45 am looking for clues. you're trying to figure out the time of death. you take the temperature of the body and its 84.5 degrees. more detectives come, blah blah, you see that the room's temperature is 73 degrees. you take the temperature of the body for the second time and find that its 74.9 degrees, noting that the time is 6:00 am.

we have an equation given to us to help with the problem, which is:

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/957541993431584838/957542858871697428/unknown.png

woeful monolith
#

what i know/have done so far is

#

rooms 73 degrees, which is Ta
the first time you take the temperature is 84.5 degrees, which i think is T0
the second time you take the temperature is 74.9 degrees, which i think is Tf
and the time is 85 minutes

#

74.9 = 73 + (84.5 - 73) e^k85 is what i get when i plug everything in (im really sleepy rn so something i plugged in might be in the wrong place) which if you add and subtract everything, and leave k on one side becomes -9.6 = e^k85

glossy sparrow
#

use log

woeful monolith
#

which is where everything goes wrong, i cant take the natural log of a negative number

#

and leave k85 by itself

woeful monolith
glossy sparrow
#

why did you get -9.6

woeful monolith
#

74.9 = 73 + (84.5 - 73) e^k85

glossy sparrow
#

when i tried it, i get 74.9=84.5 x e^85

woeful monolith
#

true

#

wait

glossy sparrow
#

you dont subtract 74.9 to 84.5

#

because 84.5 is multiplied to e^k85

woeful monolith
#

oh shit

#

i need to divide it not subtract

glossy sparrow
#

yes

got it

you seem to be missing a factor of sin(3x)/cos(3x)

dunno what you did that

i tried to make ^3 to ^2 for both the deno and numer

high lily

but you can't just multiply by cos(3x)/sin(3x) like that

#

oh

#

what shall i do then

high lily
#

as that isn't 1

glossy sparrow
#

make it ^4

high lily
#

don't overthink it

#

and apply basic exponent laws

#

just like how you expressed sin^2(3x) as sin(3x) * sin(3x)
sin^3(3x) = sin(3x) * sin(3x) * sin(3x)

ok

I need help

spiral maple
#

recall basic algebra

loud egret
#

do I just rearrange

#

?

spiral maple
#

yes

#

you solve for t

loud egret
#

but it does not work

#

=v

spiral maple
#

then you did it wrong

#

post your algebra.

loud egret
#

kk

spiral maple
#

???

loud egret
#

=v

spiral maple
#

the hell happened in the 2nd line?

loud egret
#

=v

#

uhh iam dumb

#

forget the conjurgate

obtuse pebbleBOT

@loud egret Has your question been resolved?

loud egret
#

@spiral maple

#

lol far out

this is a linear equation in t...

loud egret
#

yeah

#

I am so behind in uni

#

I am f

#

Thanks anyways

#

@spiral maple

spiral maple
#

this shouldn't be uni material

#

this is like.. grade 9

#

it's solving a linear equation

loud egret
#

=v 9 grade in your country

#

my one is different

vapid thistle

Hello, how do I go about simplifying this? I know I have to use the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus [F(t = inf) - F(t = 0)] but I can't seem to get the value of F(inf) because it results in an indeterminate of inf * 0. I know F(0) will simply be 0 when evaluated.

vapid thistle
#

This is what I tried so far, doesn't seem to get me anywhere?

novel knoll
#

is s>0?

vapid thistle
#

Yep

#

I forgot to mention that, sorry

novel knoll
#

exponential grows faster than polynomials

vapid thistle
#

So, the limit would be 0?

novel knoll
#

si

vapid thistle
#

Oh okay, I thought of that too earlier when I checked online graphing calculators. But I wasn't sure if just mentioning that is enough

novel knoll
#

you can prove limit of t^(a*n)/(e^(b * t)) is 0 for any b>0

vapid thistle
novel knoll
#

induction in n or write exp as its taylor series

#

are two ways

vapid thistle
#

oh alright, guess I'll try induction first

novel knoll
#

could also apply L'H n times to make numerator a constant

#

and denom still having e^t

vapid thistle
#

The problem didnt really state a specific n though, just that its from the set of n=1,2,3,...

novel knoll
#

its still a fixed unkown constant

vapid thistle
#

Oh, hmmkay hmmkay

#

I think I got it now, thanks!

teal prawn
#

that doesnt seem like a math question

robust sleet
#

doesn't matter

hallow bough
#

It is

teal prawn
#

ok

#

well we need to use an equation in this case

robust sleet
#

h=(v^2)/2g use this

maiden flint
#

Is this right?

high lily
#

yes

fading juniper
#

yeah

#

i think

maiden flint
#

Yes but -2^2 = -4 though

fading juniper
#

no

#

its 4

high lily
#

-2^2 is indeed -4

fading juniper
#

-2x-2=4

high lily
#

-2^2 is not the same as (-2)^2

maiden flint
#

So why is my scientific calculator when I square negative 2 coming up as negative 4?

high lily
#

because you're not entering stuff in the calculator properly

solar depot
#

think gc interprets it as -(2)^2

maiden flint
#

Right I’ve just figured it out

high lily
#

yeh, you're not telling it to calculate what you want

fading juniper
#

it is saying 2 square times -

high lily
#

respectable calculators follow the order of operations

maiden flint
#

Sorry for wasting your time again 😂

fading juniper
#

you must put brackets

#

lol

pine sail
#

It's again very amusing to me how many people get stuck at this.

maiden flint
#

Thanks for being patient again with me…….

pine sail
#

It is alright.

#

You're not the only one.

maiden flint
#

I have an exam in may I will be using this channel a lot 😂

fading juniper
#

just remember not to forget those brackets

#

lol

pine sail
#

Right.

fading juniper
#

i can imagine how many times i got questions wrong because i typed it wrong in the calculator

#

*cant

#

.close

maiden flint
#

So can someone please remind me why putting the brackets around the number changes the answer

fading juniper
#

so like this

#

-2^2 is same as this

#

-(2^2)

#

which equals to

#

-(4)

#

how ever if you put brackets

#

(-2^2)

#

it is showing that you are squaring the whole -2

#

not just 2

maiden flint
#

Right so why don’t they just put the ^2 on the inside of the bracket in the first place?

fading juniper
#

i mean it means the same thing i think

fading juniper
#

im confused now

high lily
#

how ever if you put brackets
(-2^2)
no

#

that changes nothing

fading juniper
#

i meant (-2)^2

#

sry

pine sail
#

Right that is 4.

fading juniper
#

yeah

pine sail
#

(-2^2) or -(2^2) is same thing.

#

Thank you, I started doubting my existence tbh.

fading juniper
#

lol

maiden flint
#

Me again

#

In this one I understand why we have negative 8 but why has the plus symbol gone?

#

Actually I’ve figured it out

Two functions are given by the regulations f (x) = 2x^3−150x and g (x) = x^2 + kx + 25−500, where k is a constant. The function f has a local maximum at the same point as g has a local minimum. Based on this information, determine the value of k.
