yes
thx
Btw @somber mural ik it wasnt my question but thx anyway ive got my a level later today and exponential graphs is on it too xD
Ooh gl dude ^^
same to you
im strugglign with the last part i underlined it
Getting transformation of functions down and a good understanding of how base functions look/work is very helpful
what type of graph have you drawn
yes
y is feet
but you can see it is a certain type of graph
graph good but function is off
a certain trigonometric one
can you answer this
@vagrant spruce you have written your function
so you want to find the 2 x values that give the height as 90
so set y to 90
and solve for x
you have drawn the graph
in one cycle, how many times does the graph y value equal 90
when you do the inverse cosine, you need to make sure you account for both values
then solve for x with both those values
to elaborate, calculating inverse cosine will give you the reference angle for theta. There are two quadrants where this reference angle would be positive for cosine (1 and 4). Finding the standard angles for both will give you two thetas, and therefore two final x values (for time)
@vagrant spruce Has your question been resolved?
$y=49cos(12(x-15))+50$
IntelligentCake
IntelligentCake
IntelligentCake
$\frac{40}{49} = cos(12(x-15))$
IntelligentCake
do you agree @vagrant spruce
do u leep the fraction
leep?
keep
what do you mean keep
you now have cos(12(x-15)) = 40/49
now do inverse cosine
so 12(x-15) = angle
inverse cos on 40/49?
35.31
wdym
this is a graph of cosx
notice how it is symmetrical
so there are 2 solutions that give 40/49
ok well I've given you the other angle to calculate
once you have that
you can solve for x for both equations
ok i did all that and got 17.9
how do i get 2nd time
idk abt the 2nd one
why 360
I have already expalined
this is cosx
from 0 to 360
it equals 1 twice yes?
at 0
and at 360
so 2 solutions
you are trying to find when it is 40/49
so that is at 2 x values
ok
I haven't checked but you can always put x back into original
sorry I must go now, you will need to wait for someone else

I have found r=-10 and p=3
I can't find q
I grouped together the parts of the equation depending on whether they had a matching degree
which is how i found p and r
Do the same for q
I did but i cant seem to get it
You will get a system of equations
(r-5q)x^2 and (-5q+4p)x^2
There are three parts of the equation that share the degree of 2
Multiply every term with (x-1)(x-4)
Yes, group all the different parts with the same degrees
Together
And then make them equal to -63
Do the same for third degrees and first degrees
3
And what about no x?
and 4r to -40 so r =-10
Yes
You have p and r
Combine the terms with second degrees after substituting them
And find q
Could also combine the third degree terms
ok

$\frac{2x+5}{x+5} = \frac{x-20}{x^2+x-20}$
MarveI
i saw someone asking this question and i still dont understand
What dont you understand
okay wait ima type where im stuck at
$\frac{(2x+5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x-4)} = \frac{x-20}{(x+5)(x-4)}$
MarveI
yes now can cancel the denominators
keeping in mind that if you get x=-5 or x=4 later on then they arent solutions
and 0
MarveI
Gg
$2x^2 + 5x - 8x - 20 = x - 20$
MarveI
$2x^2 + 2x - 40= 0$
2 and 0 are right
MarveI
oh ok
It becomes 2x^2 -4x
-8x + 5x -x
oh yeah i m dumb
Thats -4x
$2x^2 - 4x = 0$

I could use help with this
I tried with generating functions
But i seem to be getting nowhere
Do you have to find a_n
fäf
What's the doubt there?
Hello there
Ah mb. Solving the recurrence relation
what do you want
Use this @warped fulcrum
Was just saying hello 
I mean generating functions are 1000x overkill here, it's pretty much a geometric series we got here
This tells me exactly nothing but ok
what do u even want?
Yes but the homework specifically asks for it to get familiar with it
Well use the knowledge that $a_n - a_{n-1} = 3^{n-1}$
fäf
Solving the recurrence relation like I've stated above. Please read the convo first. Wasn't that high up lol
You gonna get $a_n - a_0 = 3^{n-1} + 3^{n-2} + \dots 3^{1} + 1$
fäf
Ah okay
I'm a bit rusty on those

$$
can someone please explain why $|\vec{a}|^2 * |\vec{b}|^2$ can be written as just $\vec{a}^2 * \vec{b}^2$
magima
Do you by any chance mean, magnitude in the second case also?
if you square something its positive
Yeah.
So it doesn't matter if you take the magnitude.
(5)^2 = (-5)^2 = |+-5|^2 for example.
Oh okay thx I understand that
|| is used for absolute ... Always returns positive value
So absolute and length of the vector are the same when taking the square?

What are the conditions for $y$ that:
$${ a + by | a, b \in \mathbb{Z} }$$
to be a subring of $\mathbb{R}$
I know $\sqrt{2}$ works, but it seems $\sqrt[3]{2}$ doesn't work.
So $\sqrt{2}$ works because, $\sqrt{2} \cdot \sqrt{2} \in \mathbb{Z}$
However, that's not the case for $\sqrt[3]{2}$, and the fact that it happens at 3 seems to cause an issue.
ryep
I guess the natural question is what about $\sqrt[4]{2}$, and my guess is that it'd work.
ryep
You should be checking the axioms of a subring
Oh ok
Iirc one of the axioms will put a requirement on y
Your testing might give you an indication of the requirement
Aight.
Ok, so $\sqrt[4]{2}$ isn't possible.
My guess is that:
$y^n = a + by$
Is a requirement.
e.g $y = \pi$, then:
$$\pi^2 = a + b\pi \text{ is not possible}$$
$$\sqrt[4]{4} = a + b\sqrt[4]{2} \text{ is not possible}$$
And $y^2$ must exist in the ring, by multiplication.
Idk if this is right: It's kinda nuts, it means $\sqrt{n}$ and $n$ are the only possible $y$s for $${ a + by | a, b \in \mathbb{Z} }$$ to be a subring of $\mathbb{R}$.
ryep
Not even rationals can be y..., wtf.

I would like help with this
I have first split this guy into 8 equal volumes by stating its symmetry about x=y, x=-y, and z=0, then integrated as following but I got a bit stuck with integration
so I would seek to know if my starting integral is already conceptually wrong, or my integration is trash, or both
and I don't think integrating the bottom integral gives 16 - 8 sqrt(2), so I stopped
seems right to me
ahahahahah
so the left term becomes -2/3 sin(x) tan^2(x), which for some reason I don't know how to integrate, and integrating the right term is probably not 16 because there's a 3 in the denominator?
is that right?
write sinx tan^2(x) in form ((1-cos^x)/cos^x)x sin x then substitute cos x = t to integrate it
What is the numerator in the right term?
is it 2?
if yes then it in integration should be 32/3

I am embarrassingly blanking on a super simple 3rd grade math problem, and I need the answer ASAP
If I earned $46.95 after working 3h8m, what is the hourly rate?
I'm wanting to do 46.95 / 3.8, but I know that's not right, 8 minutes is not 80% of 60 minutes. 8 minutes is 7.5% of 60 minutes. so is it 46.95 / 3.075?
and I need the answer ASAP
this won't get you help any faster lol
are you sure 8 minutes is 7.5% of 60
,calc 8/60
Result:
0.13333333333333
,calc 7.5%
Result:
0.075
the point in me saying that
is that I don't have time to go watch a math tutorial lol
im filling out a government applicaation and am asking help
8/60 = 1/7,5 not 7,5%
so what you could do, is tell me the answer, and the method by which you used
seems kinda lazy ngl
lol insane
no is going to tell you the answer
this is for help
not answer giving
"I am genuinely blanking on how to do this and am filling out an urgent government document"
you are definitely insane if you think I am lazy
that's a totally valid reason for asking for quick help /explanation
"yeah sorry time sensitive government doc, lemme go pull up math antix real quick"
in the time you have spent asking, you could have done a lot more
developers are supposed to know math
I said in my message I am blanking on what the calculation even is to do
lol i dunno why people on this server are such self righteous assholes
you presume that we just give answers
no
I didn't ask for the answer
lmao you understand that we aren't getting paid
im asking for the formula
and that you are not entitled to help
then get off a help server?
what does this say lol
and the method by which you used
wat
we already helped you
lmao
this response
was in response to illuminator
saying "we dont care if its urgent"
you have wasted far more time arguing than just taking the help
so yes, seems kinda lazy
Sure I have a hard time not making time to argue against behavior i find riduclous
thanks for the help.
you putting a reason for the help changes nothing. you are the same as others. wait until someone comes to help

There are two common approaches to helping people work through problems.
One is to take this wise kung fu mentor approach and tell the student to go spend 5-30 minutes thinking about it and come to it on their own. This is usually a good approach, but you guys over do it ( I think for ego reasons)
The other approach, more reasonable in this context, is "Yeah sure lemme help you out, all we gotta do is do this step, and then this step, and then voila here's the answer."
"thanks man, that makes sense and now I have the answer to my urgent matter"

but instead you wanted an excuse to feel superior wise kung fu whatever
@timid silo since I assume you're a dev, give this so meta post and the approved answer a read https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/326569/under-what-circumstances-may-i-add-urgent-or-other-similar-phrases-to-my-quest
lmao
Yeah I mean I didn't ask an esoteric software question. I asked a 3rd grade math problem that I'm blanking on
if this were any other discord server
I feel like you'd just
i dunno
be a normal person
and help a brother out
for some "urgent application" you sure are spending a lot of time arguing
just close the channel and move on
sure I'll close the channel, just wanted to make it clear that i don't think the behavior is reasonable
how do I close without it asking me?

when solving $2x+4\equiv_5 3$ I did
$$2x\equiv_5-1\equiv_54$$
$$x\equiv_52$$
However, how can I guarantee that this is all of the possible solutions?
lirmirit
Z_5 is a field, so 2 is invertible and there is only one solution to 2x=b for all b
or you can check all options
note that if you multiply 2x=4 by 3 on both sides you get x=2
that's because 2^-1 = 3 in Z_5
oh yea, this is a much simpler way to solve it
fields are commutative rings in which each nonzero element has a multiplicative inverse
Z_n in general is a ring, Z_p with p a prime is also a field
ah, this makes sense

so at the derivative of f'(3) would g'(x) equal 1/2
because that would be the slope at x=3
You certain on 1/2?
What's the definition of slope of a line
Yes
Now also when calculating f'(x) you're gonna need to use the product rule, not sure if you've done/doing that or not
g'(x) * f(x) + g(x) * f'(x)?
oh right just the equation
Yeah you can say h(x) =(5x-4)² and replace f with h in what you wrote
okay yes that makes sense
then we need to look at g(3)?
the equation would be g(3) * 10(5x-4) + (5x-4)^2 * g'(3)
Yes but remember you need to replace ALL x with 3
I would agree with you
i am getting f'(3)=462
for part b im thinking the non differentiable ones are the open dots and the pointed edge at x=-2
so the non differentiable values of g(x) would be 2 and -2
You are correct, but why?
im assuming because they do not go to infinity? There is no slope at 2 or -2?
How do we know if a derivative exists at a point?
Maybe rather, what's the definition of the derivative at a point?
Have you not seen the definition in terms of limits?
in terms of limits it'd just be the slope right?
So you haven't seen a definition in terms of limits?
well I know tangent line and all that but not exactly limits i guess
Okay, it's a bit easier to explain in this case
Roughly, If the derivative were to exist at a point, then we would expect that as we approach that point from the left and the right, the slope at those points should get closer and closer to the slope we we're interested right?
would that be like x--> infinity or x--> 0
x --> point we're interested in
right yes
Look at the graph, if we approached -2 from the left, what's the slope of the function for all x close to -2 but not -2
From the left
Exactly
These don't match up
So we don't know which we would assign to the derivative at -2
Which is why it doesn't exist
Same thing is happening at 2
that makes more sense, the graph definitely helps me see that which is a first
thank you for the help again
Youre welcome:)

if I have sin x=2/3 how do I calculate this using either 30-60-90 or 45-45-90 triangles?
wdym
How do I calculate x?
It's not a special angle so you can't easily do it. You'll need trig identities
Or just a calculator
,calc asin(2/3)
Result:
0.72972765622697
I tried haha but my answer key says the answer is 42
,calc sin(42)
Result:
-0.91652154791563
,calc sin(42 deg)
Result:
0.66913060635886
😮
Kinda close to 2/3, but not exact

yes, note that g is invertible
so applying $g^{-1}$ to both sides of $g(g(b)) = -3$ gives $g(b) = g^{-1}(-3)$
OurBelovedBungo
and doing it again gives $b = g^{-1}(g^{-1}(-3))$
OurBelovedBungo
yeah, the function has an inverse, i.e. g(x) = y always has a unique solution x for any given y
correct
so $g^{-1}(-3) = 0$
OurBelovedBungo
and so $b = g^{-1}(0)$

@uncut hedge Has your question been resolved?
Hello?
which question?
11
And 10
I tied the equation
Tried
It gave me -200 for 11
And the answer was 200
When I checked the back of the book
I kept re-checking my work
But I couldn’t find the error
Yup
You got it right
So what I did was
0.22x+y=80
0.12x+y=100
Then I rearranged it
Then I got -200
But the way u did it was right
pietro just stays 1 day, thats important info
and
I don’t get it
What does the 1 day have to do wit anything
Oh it equals one day
Per rental
And whatnot
@pale mortar how abt 10
its the same as 11
try write out the equations here
the material is only a one time
so u can see 25 and 100 as constant
no need times x
since the material is only one time, u can view it as x=1 if that's easier to understand
this one is correct
since the h is the same as the other equation, u can merge them together
wait sry i just realised u copied the number wrong
its 20 not 25
wait
ye
it says 20 in the question
np

where do I start>
@hasty perch Has your question been resolved?
start by understanding what they mean
what they can look like
what they can't look like
agreed
Just dont know where to go from there
i mean can you do ~a | ~b
i used 3 conectives
but they say 2
i don't know xD
okay
so you mean you can also use disjunction at most once?
it gets way too simple in this interpretation imo
sure twice
so essentially you have 2 forms ~o | o and o | o | o
or o
o
so is there a simple way of figuring out all possible combinations for each form?
a b c d e f
e.g. 5 choose 2 = 10
sorry I dont get that?\
5 × 4 / 2 = 10
5 × 4 × 3 / 6 = 10 as well
so 10 of " o | o | o " and 10 of "o | o"
hm
im so lost
i'm not sure why
a b c d e
yep and then
isnt it just a matter of figuring all combinations in the forms o | o and o | o | o, etc...
with those letters
so what does this mean?
you have 6 forms or however much we counted
yes
we count them individually and add up
o | o | o requires us to pick 3
propositions
and nothing else
like the number of ways to pick 3 out of 5 will not be smaller than what we want, and won't be larger
we're done at 5 choose 3 = 10
so there is 10 different combinations to choose 3 from 5
yeah
so thats 10 for o | o | o
so we have 10 + 20 + 10 + 5 + 5
no 1
what about -b | b
that's equivalent to ~a | a
the task could also mean you can use any number of each
now that's a challenge, i don't know how to do that
we missed 30
huh?
let me count again
~o 5
o 5
o | o 10
o | o | o 10
o | ~o 20
a | ~a 1
30 would be 3 connections, doesn't count
well good job
so 51 is fine?
maybe we can ask someone else
good idea
it's usually followed by mod something
yeah mod x
means they are equal mod x
so 15y mod x = 6z mod x?
yep
cool thx
i'm more confident that it's 61 than that it's what the task meant
80% confident
yeah lol
i'm starting to believe it didn't mean this
it meant you can use any number of connectives
yeah
it shouldn't have said 2
whys that
all connectives can be represented with combination of negation and disjunction
it makes just as much sense to ask that
you infer that it means all connectives period
and count all statements
should I clarify what the question means
if you can
what should i ask?
if you can use more than 2 total
ohhh so do you think ur limited to only using 2 negation and disjunction
but can use as many connectives not including those 2?
no
you can't use other connectives but you're not limited to using 2
it just say 2 as a number
uf it said two as a word
you would be less convinced
oh so we arent sure if it means the only two you can use are negation and disjunction
if you can ask, you should ask
no we're sure
we definitely can't use others
we're not limited to 2
i see now
it just says 2 as a figure of speech , "i will now list what you're allowed to use"
two: negation and disjunction
it's very plausible, you should ask
It means that you can build formulas using only those two logical connectors. Same with the propositions, there are 5 propositions available to build formulas (not 4, not 6) 🙂 So, the logical language has 5 propositions and 2 connectives that one can use to build various formulas.
ok
This question has already been asked
language
100% certain we can use a lot
when the language has two vowels, you can use a lot of vowels in a word
that sort of thing
it's 2^(2^5)
if you can use anything, you can build anything, negation and disjunction allow you to build any connective
4294967296
great thank you
do you feel like helping out with anything else?
Ive got 4 more questions Im somewhat stuck on
sure
4
totally
5?
1
yes
product of |A| and |B|
it's the solution to m × 2^m = 384
6
absolutely
yes
Now this one Im fairly certain A B E F are true
but Im not sure how to solve for C D with the negated quantifiers
i'm bad at notation too
oh rip its fine then
well, it's probably only first is negated not the whole thing
dont i flip the propositional statement
oh but that's the same result
it's like, how many times do you flip it at the end
even or odd
i think
dont worry about that one
sure
D,E,G
lmao
CDEG
i see
and then everything above is also "correct"
why not F?
it's a constant, the bottomest of all
ok is ee
see
so the correct answer is A-G
as the question asks for all correct ones
A - E i mean
no cdeg is correct
well that scared me
i warned you
i see that
thats fine thanks anyway
ooo
is thast considered contrapositive
no, it's contradiction
contrapositive is just disproving negation
yeah true
A is a subset of B, does a proper subset mean that |B| > |A|
but if A = B then it is not a proper subset
frownyfrog
⊂
like it would be this but i've never seen it
⊂ whats this then
ah true, i guess

their handwriting is terrible
also not clear whether they meant cos(x^2) or cos^2(x)
the work is correct only in the latter case
Its certainly Cos(X^2)
then they are wrong.
How so?
please do not reply-ping me.
$\frac{1+\cos(2x)}{2}$ is $\cos^2(x)$, NOT $\cos(x^2)$.
Ann
But identities can certainly be used if they are corect to replace the inside of an integral before integrating
So its simply a case of the identity used was incorrect?
?
you just reply-pinged me AGAIN, and in response to the very message in which i asked you not to.
anyway, the identity used is indeed incorrect, and i have already said this in as clear language as i could.

Why is there a l in the final answer for -2?
you need to give more context
umm, its about the sign in irrational funtions
this is the exercise
So its looking for the zero points of the equations
right
its a asymptote
so it wont reach -2

|5-x|+|3x-1|>=x+2
nope
okay
then
so we take two cases ?
okayy i almost got it
thankyou (:

anyone know what the T is referring to?
Transpose
what does that mean, is it to just A x A?
Swap rows and columns
^ A_ij, after transpose = A_ji
mxn X nxp = mxp
so the anwer would be 7 x 3?
yes
you cant do BA
it is 5x3 X 7x5
the 3 and 7 are not the same
you can only multiply if columns on left = rows on right

Let S be a nonempty subset of real numbers which is bounded below. Let -S denote the set of all real numbers -x, where x belongs to S. Prove that inf S exists and inf S=-Sup(-S)
This is what I’ve done but I’m not sure if it’s correct
@halcyon stag Has your question been resolved?
The ideas all look fine. Maybe one or two minor issues with exposition. For example, right at the beginning of the proof, it would be nice to clarify that $l \le x$ for all $x$ in $S$ -- as is, it almost feels like you're saying $l \le x$ for some specific $x$.

Ah yes gotcha

What is this in CNF, really stuck
