this is how I would come up with the function
yes but can you write the function youre thinking of?
yume ♡
ok so what made you put (b-a) for m and a for c ?
it's like a high school algebra problem, finding a line that passes through two points
the two points are (0,a) and (1,b)
I totaly forgot how to do that lol
haha, happens
uhh you can write f(x) = mx + c and replace f(x) with a and x with 0
then a = c
then do the same with (1,b)
yea you could do that too but I remember my way easier 😛
ok one last question, why exactly send a to 0, and b to 1? why didnt you say b to 0 and a to 1
you could do that too
@next trellis are you ok with all of this? do you have any more questions?

Hey

This is Quadratic Equations
I just need to understand what it means by “factored over true integers”
So you can factor the expression and not use any numbers that aren't integers
That is, use only integers in the factoring of the expression
Eisenstein's criterion
@low sand Has your question been resolved?
Not to be like rude or anything but can you solve this im still so confused
I can solve it, but I can't just give you the solution
Yes, I will try my best from there if you can do that please. 🙏🏽
is it bxy?
Doesn’t seem like you’re trying so I won’t try either

how do u find the area shaded in green?
integration
i know but i dont know how to do it for an example like this
like the shaded area isnt in the concave down region
consider area addition/subtraction
shaded = area under blue - area under red
(over that interval)
ok so
if it was this interval
and the graph was x^3 + x^2 for example (i guess) how would u write it out
could u please show me?
like the integration steps
that graph doesn't resemble x^3 + x^2
can you set up an integral that represents the area under the blue line from
-2 to 4?
no
do you have the equation of the blue line?
y=4 i guess
do u want me to have equations that perfectly resemble my graph or it doesnt matter?
ideally you'd have a specific example
actually someone will have to take over, I gtg in a few minutes

brain is melting
why are these expressions different???
isnt it just multiplying the expression by 1, both should be the same, no?
@onyx warren Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
@onyx warren Has your question been resolved?
In the first expression you calculate the 80th power of .99 and then multiply by -1. But in the second (the correct one) you exponentiate -0.99.
But these two different orders don't give the same result.
yeah im just really confused as to why the hell that's a thing
whats the point of even having a negative sign
on a calculator
if it considers it subtraction unless there's a parenthesis
@timid silo
I mean, (ab)^n = (a^n)*(b^n), thus (-1 * 0.99)^n = (-1)^n * (0.99)^n and (-1)^80 = -1.
yes, i get that, i was just really confused why negative .99 raised to the 80th
didnt by default evaluate as (-.99)^80
because otherwise why even have a separate negative function and subtraction function
Honestly, I don't really "know" why the conventions are like that. Apparently some people just don't want to type an additional 0 on a calculator. (or write it on a piece of paper)
Okay, sorry. I misunderstood your question.

hi
so basically
im doing my homework atm and the lesson is about polygons
the question is: Is there an octagon whose exterior angles are 115, 53, 26, 18, 48, 39, 32 and 29 degrees
<@&286206848099549185>
it might be helpful to know what the total angle sum of an octagon is
What have you tried so far?

This one is Hard(mayby)
I know, is hard. When I come up with an idea I't ends up wrong.
so if you do x damage and the enemy has y hp
number of hits = y/(x*(1-percentage/100)
so if y=100 and x=1 and reduction = 0
100/(1 * (1-0/100)=100
but if reduction is 25
100/(1 * (1-25/100) = 133.333
if 100
100/(1 * (1-100/100)=100/0 undefined so cant kill
so multiplier is just new number of hits / original number of hits
will the hit amount multiplayer will be diferent witha diferent x and y?

@open lotus Has your question been resolved?
Using the truth of the case when k = 3, you can prove it using mathematical induction. Another way is to just argue that that x = -y is a root of f(x) = x^k+y^k for y constant. So x - (-y) is a factor of x^k + y^k.
oh nice
I got that root argument
can you show the induction way?
couldn't go further from $x^{2*k-1}*x^2 + y^{2k-1}*y^2$
I'm not going to go through a formal proof but I will sketch it for you
sunho
P(3) is true. Do what you just did
Since P(2k-1) is true, there exists a polynomial p so that x^(2k-1) + y^(2k-1) = (x+y)p or y^(2k-1)= (x+y)p - x^(2k-1)
substitute (x+y)p - x^(2k-1) in for y^(2k-1)
do some basic factoring and what not until you have (x+y) multiplied by some stuff
Obviously a bit sloppy but I think that should be enough for you based on what you said?
yeah so you showed that x^k + y^k is (x+y)*stuff

sorry i have another question
my textbook says that between 0 and 2 it is concave down, however it looks like a concave up, am i missing something?
that's the graph of f''(x)
not the graph of f
f'' is negative on (0, 2) so it would be concave down on that interval

am I doing good?
no
💀
in the first line of work the fraction you have is only the difference quotient
for the derivative you'd also need the limit as h→0
and as for the line after that there was a complete disregard for algebraic rules
I didnt write the lim because im on my laptop
this is awkward
but
what was the complete disregard for algebraic rules
i see like 3 main issues
say say say
oh you made some edits
yup
now its currently only one issue

what is confusing? find the mcclaurin series and then find the coefficient of x^(2022) and multiply it by 2022!
because coeff of $x^n = \frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
(in a mcclaurin series)
i can’t take derivative 2022 times
Doesn’t it just mean (f(0))^2022?
wut
no
and you aren't supposed to, find the mcclaurin series (pretty simple, its just a geometric series, but you have to multiply it by x^2), and then solve for the n such that the power = 2022
and then find the coefficient after doing that
could u write this out for me? im afraid i dno what you’re talking about
$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}x^n$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
it will look something like this
right
and what you are trying todo
i understand that part
is solve for the n such that the power of x = 2022
then you can just take the coefficeint and multiply it by 2022!
this is the mac series no?
the stuff in front of x^n
do you know how to find a mac series
okay well then you should read up / review notes on how to find a general mcclaurin series
(or how to use a geometric series in this case)
here ill write it like this
$x^2 \cdot \frac{1}{1-x^2}$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
do you recognize that the second term has a very simple series expansion?
(hint: geometric series)
oh yeah
so we get this
i forgot the exact form tho
$x^2 \cdot \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} x^{2n}$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
geometric series is something you should know cold
so keep that in mind
anyways we can simplify this b/c x^2 is a constant in the n world
so we get :
$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} x^{2n+2}$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
so now here is where i was saying solve for when the power of x = 2022
so we get: 2n+2 = 2022 => n+1 = 1011 => n = 1010
right does this make sense?
yes
okay so now we need to compare this to our form from before
this
but in this case it turns out that the massive coefficient is just 1!
well im still lost on why u didn’t just substitute 2022 into n
$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} 1\cdot x^{2n+2} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{f^{(n)}(0)}{n!}x^n$
! Brontochad (RYC4blushysully)
cuz then the power of x (the thing we care about) wouldn't equal 0
anyways in this case it doesn't matter what n is because the coefficients are always 1
so now you just have to note that the coefficient of x^(2022) = f^(2022)(0)/2022!
and then from there you can solve what f^(2022)(0) is
ok I’m gonna go pray they donkt ask this tmrw
well i have my final tmrw morning
ok yeah no

how do you find llv+wll vs llvll+llwll?
depends on how the norm is defined
but the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality states that ||v+w|| <= ||v|| ||w|| when the norm is induced by an inner product
and there is equality whenever v and w and linearly dependent

@crisp dune Has your question been resolved?
for f(g(x)) to be defined, g(x) has to be in [1, infty) so g(x) >= 1
for g(f(x)) to be defined, f(x) has to be in (-infty, 2] so f(x) <= 2
yes?
yeah then you just solve the inequalities?
keep in mind that for g(x) >= 1 you also have x <= 2 and for f(x) <= 2 you have x >= 1

I cannot get B
I found the forces on A = T - 2w_B
forces on B = w_B - T
and the accelerations of B and A are the same
so
(T - 2w_B) / w_A = (w_B - T) / w_B
w_B(T - 2w_B) = w_A(w_B - T)
and now this is already clearly super wrong
so idk what to do
im going fucking insane
Mind zooming in on the question? Very smol.
Well, okay I might have it.
The new normal force on the block is 2w(a)
The block is still pulled with gw(b)
Oh wait, duh. If the same coefficient of friction exists, and the block now just got heavier, then clearly the block won't move.

Hello I was looking at a solution. Why did square root on the top become a 1 ? The bottom also became a square root too. I didn’t understand the steps here. Any help is appreciated!
okay so
factor out the denominator
so that its the product of linear factors
which is x-2 and x+2
(with 3 infront as a scale factor of sorts)
you understand that part?
Yep
Yes
so consider sqrt(x-2) = u, and x-2 = u^2
then when you cancel them out you get 1/u right?
Oh I see
yep
Tysm

but idk why they did that lol @obsidian condor it wouldnt give a invalid answer
it would make the denominator 0
and n/0 = undefined

Hey everyone. I don’t know where to post this, but I am getting stuck on this proof in tao’s analysis 1. I’ve highlighted the portion that is bothering me. I’ve tried to do all kinds of “legal” inequality manipulations, and I have made no progress haha. I hope I can receive help on this. Thank you!
@strong dirge Has your question been resolved?
they fixed the epsilon such that |b_n-0|>epsilon for n big enough
Yes, but I don’t understand how he concludes |b_n|>= epsilon/2 from the triangle inequality
I’m able to get till here
if |b_n_0|>epsilon the only way |b_n_0-b_n|<=epsilon/2 is if |b_n|>epsilon/2
|b_n_0-b_n|>=| |b_n_0|-|b_n| |
This is the reverse triangle inequality?
yes
I still don’t understand how we need to have |b_n|>epsilon/2 for |b_n0-b_n|<=epsilon/2
?

i dont see the pattern
So you are using the hint?
Let's say you've already got n lines down. If you add another, it has to intersect with all of them, producing n more intersections
ok lets say i have 2 lines, so i have 1 intersection
if i add one more line i get 3 intersections
i dont understand the plane divided into regions
A "region" is an area that is not broken by a line
A single line breaks the plane into 2 regions
@grim plinth Has your question been resolved?
you prove something by induction by adding one to the variable n (in this case it means adding one more line)
then use the formula to determine the new number of regions
if you come up with the same answer as you would by just substituting n+1 into the formula instead of n then you have proven that the formula is valid for any number of lines n

Golden Ratio Games is trying out a microtransaction model in their latest game. They expect that 1/5 of players who try their game will make some microtransactions and spend an average of $3.50. If the total cost to produce and market the game was $80000, how many people will have to play the game for the company to break even?
what have you tried
i tried 1/5x * 3.50 = 80000
and got 114285.7
actually i think that is the answer
i do need help with this tho
The sum of two numbers is 40. If you added sixteen to twice the smaller number, you would get ten more than the larger number. What are the two numbers?
what have you tried for that then
there are two variables so like im not sure
alright so
let's claim that the smaller number is x, and the larger number is y
the sum of these 2 numbers are 40
so x+y=40
you would do something similar for the other one
Ok so?
can you write an similar equation for the other part
"If you added sixteen to twice the smaller number, you would get ten more than the larger number."
k i think i understand
what would the answer be?
lets break it down further then
"sixteen to twice the smaller number" is the same thing as "ten more than the larger number"
and we claimed that the smaller number is x, larger number is y
equation is
x*2+16=y-10?
that's 10 less
so it would be +10 instead of -10?
yes
"sixteen to twice the smaller number is 2x+16 in terms of x (smaller number)
"ten more than the larger number" is y+10, as 2x+16 equals to 10 more than y
so now you have these two equations
x+y=40
2x+16=y+10
do you know how to solve systems of linear equations?
i havent started it yet
h
how would i do algebra when there is 2 different variables?
you would normally solve the system of linear equation
1 method is substitution
x+y is 40, right
yes
so 2x +16 = 10 + 40-x

use exponent rules
not rly
mainly just $\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$
a disappointing son
x= 2 a=3x b=x in our case
it is 2^(2x), but that does not simplify to 4x
if you type 2^2x into an online calculator, it will interpret that as (2^2)*x
which is 4x
if you have more than one character in an exponent, surround it with parenthesis

i’m pretty sure it’s transformation out of
A. stretch
B. reflection
C. translation
D. compression
also this i’m 99% sure it’s A

I'm having trouble understanding and solving problems like this.
if someone could explain how to solve such problems
Try to simplify it first
The problem is I have been sick the whole time they did this in class
so I don't know even the basics

49 = 7²
I know
the problem is see the top and bottom lines
I am very confuzed to how in the top we went from all that is coloured to the bottom coloured section
Ahh I see
To make it simple x=7^(2x+2)
X-3X = -2X = -2.7^(2x+2)
🤦♂️ I am so gonna fail this test
Well, let's break this down
Using exponent laws, rewrite $7^{2x + 2}$
Umbraleviathan
Alright so
There's this property
Or I should say identity idk what it is
It's a thing you can do
$A^{a+b} = A^a\cdot A^b$
Umbraleviathan
aha, yes Ive seen this before
Which applies to this
and subtraction is devision
Yeah
to then that would be $7^{2x}\cdot 7^{2}$
PoTeTo
Umbraleviathan
49x?
What's another way to write 49
7x7
7^2
Umbraleviathan
So $49^x = (7^2)^x$
Umbraleviathan
Rewrite the right side
ok so 49^x is the same as 7^2)^x
Yeah
Use this law
$7^2x$
PoTeTo
Yeah
ish
$7^{2x$}
PoTeTo
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
xD
You can just plug it into desmos, highlight it, copy it, paste it
Since desmos uses Latex
But yes
Now this is gonna take me a bit but
Oh and
The denominator, simplify the base 7 exponent
you can simplyfy it even more?
The 7^(2x+1)
No
This
$7^{2x}\cdot 7^{2}$
PoTeTo
Not quite
It's being raised to 2x + 1
exponents make no sense
You'll get used to it
quadratic function and intervals are easyer
Heh, I remember those
Wait until you find the slope of a quadratic
Then it's just pain
Thats easy for me
exponents
are
a
nightmare
They don't make sense
or logic
They'll eventually
You just gotta get used to them
Before you end your session I'll list some stuff out
But for now, let's focus on the question
slight problem
So 7^(2x + 1) = 7^(2x) • 7
exam is tommorow....
From the property I showed before, you understand this right
Yes
Aight so
And this is gonna take me a while
Because latex loves all this shit and what not and syntax skiddhdislakdkd
$\frac{7^{2}\cdot7^{2x}-3\cdot7^{2x}-2\cdot7^{2x}}{7^{1}\cdot2\cdot7^{2x}}$
That's not right
Uhhhh what did I miss
Umbraleviathan
7^2x from top and bottom
🤷♂️
Time to write another fraction
Close
the - got deleted
Not quite though
PoTeTo
Not quite
no?
The 7^2x needs to be factored from all terms
That's how factoring works
It has to take from every term
🤦♂️
im stupid
Yeah it doesn't let you use that word
welp
But I can say fuck shit
im fucking stupid
It's fine lol
Now i remember
if you got multiple separate "parts" i call it
Yeah, you take from all
that are not compatible and separated by * then you take away from all of them
$\frac{7^{2}\cdot7^{2x}-3\cdot7^{2x}-2\cdot7^{2x}}{7^{1}\cdot2\cdot7^{2x}}$
PoTeTo
we start with this
Yeah
$\frac{7^{2}-3-2}{7^{1}\cdot2}$
PoTeTo
anwser to this problem should be -50/7
Bruh what
exactly
Oh I'm dumb, it's 49^(x+1)
I thought it said 49^x
Well then just multiply -3 by 49
can we start from skratch?
$\frac{7^{2}\cdot7^{2x}-3\cdot7^{2x}-2\cdot7^{2x}}{7^{1}\cdot2\cdot7^{2x}}$
PoTeTo
wait
Yeah so basically 49^(x+1) = 49 • 7^(2x)
ill do it on paper and try again
Yeah
I don't understand the 3(49)*7^2x
Either way, do magic shit
-50:7
I'm assuming you're done, so I'll give you the list of stuff
The thing about latex is that you can save them as images
Separately, but they're images
But lemme give them very quickly:
$(A^a)^b= (A^b)^a = A^{ab}$
$A^{a+b} = A^a\cdot A^b$
$a^A\cdot b^A = (ab)^A$
Umbraleviathan
Ye
Above your image are some properties
You can save them as images
There's one more
$(\frac{1}{a^b}) = (\frac{1}{a})^b$
Umbraleviathan
@fierce lagoon just whats it diffent if its x+1 and x-1
