is m the result of -1/3?
The m, or slope (or gradient if you're not from the united states), can be calculated with given points
It's the result of the change in y (or "rise") divided by the change in x (or "run")
oh so X the run is -1 and Y is rise and its plus 3
So between the point (-1, 3) and (0, 0), x changes by +1 and y changes by -3
yes yes
Yup, and if you divide the rise by the run, you get the slope
So -3/1 (like how I wrote it) or 3/-1 (like you wrote it) both give us -3
Exactly
but why is it Y=-3x-, is it always Y?
So essentially, the equation y = -3x describes every point on that line
If you choose a random number to be x, and then calculate y from that, you get a point on that line
So let's say x = 4
-3(4) = -12
So we'd get the point (4, -12)
Which is on the line there
ohhhhhh
If you're on a computer right now and want to, try going to the website desmos.com/calculator. Write y = mx + b in the box on the left, and then change m and b to random numbers to see what it does
That'll give you some more visuals of other graphs
yea yea
Basically, c is the number you get when you set x equal to 0
It tells how high off the x-axis the graph is over the origin (or point (0,0))
I'll get a graph that'll show it better, one sec
ok thanks im a bit lost
Here's the line y = 3x + 4
So the m value there is 3, which means that every time x goes up by 1, y goes up by 3
It's similar to your problem, but the line goes up to the right instead of up to the left
If you look at the y=axis, you'll see that the line crosses it at the point (0, 4)
so what is C in my question? 0?
Exactly
ohh its where it crosses?
Which is why it's not there at all, because adding 0 does nothing
So they didn't write "+ 0"
Yup
Where it crosses the y-axis is the c value
and M is -3?
In your problem, yes
and what is X
So if you choose something random for x, and solve for y, you'll find a point (x, y) that's on the line
X can be anything and itll still be on the line
Exactly
Sure
And just to note, part a in your original problem is a weird case where you can't write it in y = mx + c form
so is it -3 is where you start? then rise 3 up and run 2 positive which means right
then draw a line?
Exactly
ohh i see
and for A why is it positive? are you meant to work towards the middle?
Because its going left 3? so isnt that negative
If you think about moving from the left to the right, positive gradient makes you go up
So if you trace the line starting on the left and going right, the m = +1 one goes upwards, and the m = -2 one goes downwards
im talking about A
Yeah you can think of it as working towards teh middle
If you start at the y line and go left, you go down 3 and to the left 3
Which would be -3/-3 or 1
ohh they both equal 1 anyway
Yup
cool i get it now thanks
If this helps, think of it like this
As x gets bigger, y also gets bigger, positive slope
In b there, as x gets bigger, y gets smaller, negative slope
Which problem do you want to start with?
$\frac{x}{9} = \frac{4}{3}$
lexitorius
There's a couple ways to do this one
There's the way that your solution there shows, and there might be a more simple way if you want that
Essentially they're trying to make the denominators the same, and multiplying 3 by 3 gives you 9
There might be a better way though
oh i see
So we have x/9 on the left side, and we want to get x on its own
but in ii the X is at the top
How do we get rid of "/9"
how would you do that
with 9?
lexitorius
Yup
and what aboit ii
That's the way that I would have done that problem, but we can go through the way they did it too if you want
ii is similar, but the x is in the denominator
$\frac{15}{x}=\frac{3}{4}$
lexitorius
Not quite
Remember how we had 9 in the denominator, and multiplied it to both sides to move it?
We did $\frac{x}{9} = \frac{4}{3} \implies x = (9)\frac{4}{3}$
lexitorius
x/9 times 9 is x, and 4/3 times 9 is 9(4/3) or 12
im slightly lost
That's okay
so why cant i do 15(3/4)
You could, but then we would have $\frac{1}{x} = \frac{(\frac{3}{4})}{15}$
Which we could still work with, but it might be harder
lexitorius
oh so whats the other way of doing it
So what I would do is multiply both sides by x
$\frac{15}{x} = \frac{3}{4} \implies 15 = x(\frac{3}{4})$
and what is X? 15
lexitorius
x is just x, we can multiply it to both sides to move it just like we did with 9
We don't actually know what x is yet, but it is a number so we can do the same things to it as we can numbers like 9 and 15
Another way to write what I got there is $15 = \frac{3x}{4}$
lexitorius
Which gets x on the top, so we can solve it similarly to how we did part i
im lost man sorry
That's alright lol
maybe i didnt understand i
$\frac{x}{9} = \frac{4}{3}$
lexitorius
Another way we can do i is by making the denominators teh same
Let's try it that way, if you'd like
Yup, to the right side which we can do because 3/3 is equal to 1
You can always multiply something by "one" without technically changing it
So even though we're changing the numbers themselves, they still mean the same thing
Namely, 4/3 and 12/9 are equal
In the same way that 1/2 and 2/4 are
If that makes sense
yea yea
lexitorius
Now if we multiply 9 to both sides, we just get x = 12
Exactly
$\frac{15}{x} = \frac{3}{4}$
lexitorius
Yeah that's actually a shortcut
Not sure if it'll always work but
Here's a trick
$\frac{15}{x} = \frac{3}{4}$ is the same as $\frac{x}{15} = \frac{4}{3}$
lexitorius
If you flip both sides like that, they will still be true
oh is it the same?
And now you can do that problem just like we did i
Be careful about when you do that though because if there's more stuff on one side it won't work
$\frac{15}{x} + 2 = \frac{3}{4} \text{is not the same as} \frac{x}{15} + 2 = \frac{4}{3}$
lexitorius
Holy beans that's finnicky
LMAOO
try doing something like
$\frac {15} x + 2 = \frac34$ is not the same as $\frac {x} {15} + 2 = \frac43$
Oh I did that before but I had "not" underlined and it messed it up
$\frac {15} x + 2 = \frac34$ is \underline{not} the same as $\frac {x} {15} + 2 = \frac43$
lexitorius
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
So in that one, we want to start by isolating the term with x in it
We want to get x/2 onto its own side of the equation
oh ok
$\frac{x}{2} - 2 = 1$
lexitorius
But that -2 is in our way, so we need to find a way to move it to the other side of the equation
so you do -2=1?
What's a way that we can make x/2 - 2 change to x/2
ohh +2?
yup
But if we do that to the left side of the equation, we need to do the same to the right side
lexitorius
then you put 3 over 1?
You can if you want, or we can also find a way to get rid of the 2 in teh denominator
Similar to how we got rid of the 9 earlier
But yeah 3 is equal to 3/1
i think i rather do 3/1
Go for it
so then x/2 = 3/1?
not sure
When we had $\frac{x}{9} = \frac43$, how did we make the right side be $\frac{12}{9}$ instead?
lexitorius
correct
so then we got x/2 = 6/2
Mhm
now im kinda lost tho
3?
So we now know that x/2 is equal to 3
is x/2 equal to 2x?
So if half of x is 3, what is a whole x?
6?
Yup
To do it symbolically, we would want to get rid of the denominator 2
Which we can do by multiplying everything by 2
x/2 times 2 is x, and 3 times 2 is 6
ohh ok
@forest steeple Has your question been resolved?
So this is called the distributive property
i got the first line of the pink writing but not sure about second
Okay cool so you got the multiplication part down?
yup
Remember before when we had a -2 on one side of an equation, and we wanted to get rid of it?
yea
We can do something similar here
What we'll want to do is get all of the terms with an x in them onto one side, and all of the terms without an x to the other sidew
yea
So we have $2x + 2 = 3x - 6$
Let's start with the +2, we want to get it to the other side
Yup
we could, but we want to keep the x terms on one side
So we would instead move the 3x from the right side to the left side
oh so u saying we just get x?

Hello, I need some help with this one: Find all the asymptotes for the function
Try considering what happens as x -> ±∞
One option is (now I wouldn't do this immediately), but you can check your answer by graphing this on Desmos
Alright, so, when x -> +infinity, f(x) -> x
when x -> -infinity, f(x) -> 2
does that mean I have a horisontal asymptote at y = 2=
?*
@waxen kestrel Has your question been resolved?
No
First divide all terms by the largest one
u mean something like this?
mb, thought the biggest term had to be in the denominator
@waxen kestrel Has your question been resolved?
Oh you're right. It should have been x^2 e^(3x)
okay, so it's something like this?

how is this wrong
$arccos\left(\frac{\left(11\right)^2+\left(14\right)^2-\left(8\right)^2}{2\cdot 11\cdot 14}\right)$
Kold
= 34.8
That looks like you've solved for an angle using cosine rule
cos A = (b)^2 + (c)^2 - (a)^2 / 2 * b * c
It wants area
omfg im so stupid
i thought since
the opposite of the sides
are capital
it wanted side length A
Ah I see it tbf
so A = 1/2 * b * h
you dont know base or height
you could solve for angle
and use
like sin(A) thing
wtf why did she never teach us this
There's also a formula for when you have an angle so your work might not be for nothing

where did the 8.7 come from
what?
34/3.9 doesnt give 2.2
its gotta give some much larger number
for example something around 7
its 8.7
so the acceleration and velocity are the same?
The velocity is 8.7m/s^2
34 is not the velocity though
then what is it?
34 is the displacement
if it was displacement it would be given in meters instead of m/s

Im looking to show that the set of points with foci A,B {P|(d(A,P)^2)+(d(B,P)^2)=a} where a is constant
I think the center would be something like d(A,B)/2, and know appollonius proved this using ratios of the distance
would a be the curvature?

I assume it's safe to ignore this case because it's a false statement?
What are you trying to do? the first inequality is equivalent to x<1
This is the exercise. I need to specify the set of all numbers in R for which this is true, in the simplest way possible.
madmike
basically my question is if I am doing things correct 
I don't know what to do if I get gibberish from a case, like 1 > 3
I am just ignoring it now
On a different exercise I also have a case that just results in a true statement
What should I do with this?
Am I supposed to ignore it?

Hello can you simplify this question
idk how
What's the greatest common factor between $15a^2b^2$ and $3ab$
Umbraleviathan
The greatest common factor
If you're doing stuff like this you should be proficient in factoring
You always yield to the factor(s) with the lowest exponents (for variables)
Which term has the lowest exponents
You can simplify it
if 3+3+3+3=4*3 then your equation is equal to...
2+2+2=3x2
5+5+5+5=4*5
Try to do the same with your equation
5*5?
almost. You cant forget the 5^n
Yeah! this is correct
oh nice
not quite
so what is the answer?
5 times 5^n equals 5^1 * 5^n
5ⁿ+5ⁿ+5ⁿ+5ⁿ+5ⁿ=5x5ⁿ
oh
equals 5^1+n
is that the answer?
the answer is n = 14
no, you need to find n
Yep
This one is right
but how is it 14?
bro thats a diff question
my question is
Listen
This is solution
can u tell me the answer and how that is the answer
How many times do you count 5^n
5 times right
5 * 5^n = 5^1+n
5^1+n = 5^15
1+n = 15
n = 14
You gotta use parenthesis
where?
Here are his steps written in the way you may be more familiar with
This
You can't just say 5^1+n because it would be 5+n. You have to say 5^(1+n)
Got it
And this one is (Broken to the most basics steps)
You should be able to do this one by yourself if you look to my solution of the previous equation

How did the a & (1-a) end up in front of the ln ?
it's a special proof of logarithms
whenever the parenthesis is raised to a power
it's equal to the logarithm being multiplied by that number
so if you have log((x + 3)³) it's equal to 3log(x + 3)
Not quite
log((x+3)³) = 3log(x+3)
Pay special attention to parantheses
Yes

differentiation
Hi
Okay
So first thing, we need to use chain rule
We define $u = x(x-5)^4$ so that by the chain rule $\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{dy}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx}$
♡LexQa♡
mhm
i already went wrong there
well not really but erm still
So first, $\frac{dy}{du} = \frac{1}{u}$ and $\frac{du}{dx} = (x(x-5) ^4)'$
yeah
♡LexQa♡
i think i got a strange answer for du/dx
You can use the product rule for that
So now we have to do apply product rule for du/dx and chain rule
So we define point v = x-5 and say $\frac{du}{dx} = \frac{du}{dv} \cdot \frac{dv}{dx}$ we apply product rule to get
$\frac{du}{dx} = x'(x-5)^4 + ((x-5)^4)'x$
♡LexQa♡
hm
So: $\frac{du}{dx} = (x-5)^4 +4(x-5)^3 \cdot x$
is it not defining $v = (x-5)^4 ?$
I kind of skipped the chain rule for the second one, but if u r confused I can write it in detail
i got exactly this
We want to get it into the form of $u^n$ where $(u^n)' \to n\cdot u^{n-1}$
♡LexQa♡
oh right
well anyways
i did get what you got
Anyways, adding it all together gives us $\frac{dy}{dx}= \frac{(x-5)^4 + 4x(x-5)^3}{x(x-5)^4}$
We can simplify
But first thing,is everything clear?
yeah
♡LexQa♡
i did the stupid thing of trying to simply this
We're going to do exactly that now
okay
oh lol it is the right answer
i complicated it too much before...
thank you so much
So we factor $(x-5)^3$ from the numerator to get $\frac{(x-5)^3(x+4x-5)}{x(x-5)^4}$ which means $\frac{5x-5}{x(x-5)}$

This is how I've interpreted the question
I dont know if this is correct though since the way the question is worded is a little confusing
I would advise finding dx/dt and substituting dx/dt and x into y
then differentiating using either the product rule and/or chain rule
@glad pagoda Has your question been resolved?
How about the 20 tents that are built ? Where will it apply ??
yea then the equation for y is wrong
you would only start adding 2(dx/dt)t when the tent number (x) reaches 20

Hello
Find the equation of a pair of line passing through the point ( 2,3) and perpendicular to the Line Pair 2x²- xy - 6y² + 4x + 6y = 0
Well I've separated the equation
(x-2y+2)(2x+3y)=0
But idk what to do now
instead of factorising like that, try make y the subject in the second equation
you want it in the form of y = mx + b
oh sorry
hang on
Huh
didn't read the second half
Ok
" equation of a pair of line passing"
what's a pair of line?
do you just want a line equation?
or two lines, or what. I don't get it
i've never heard of this "pair of lines"
Ye two lines
By pair they mean the combine the line and make it in homogenous form
so yeah the second part I get, it's two lines, so we can call it a pair
ok ok I gochu. it's just that the grammar of the first part makes no sense
maybe you misspelled something
Ok ok
you should get the equation for perpendicular line
*formula
you take that second pair, and isolate these two lines
so you do it twice
then, when you have the A coefficient, I don't recall what's it's called in english, you know, the one that tells you the slope of the line
you plug in the point they want you to cross, so you raise or lower your newly found lines to make them work
yeah, -2/3 is the slope
no no, wait
The bot is offline
solve this for y
get the two possible lines from it
bam, you have two line equations
(you should get 2 x solutions)
you can just use this
Ohh
Slope intercept
to find perpendiculars
bro
you already have the two equations factored
$x - 2y + 2$
$2x + 3y$
just make y the subject
find the gradient
find the negative reciprocal gradient for perpendicular
then slap it into the formula
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
and you'll get two equations
Kk
yes
x - 2y + 2
x + 2 = 2y
y = (x + 2) / 2
he already has it all factored
don't see what the issue is
what was the answer?
This is the equation right??
well he did only half of it
Huh
(x-2y+2)(2x+3y)=0 this is just the pair in the original question
now he has to get the perpendicular pair right?
you didn't do negative reciprocal
if a line is perpendicular to another line, they have negative reciprocal gradients
for example
if we have y = 2x
yes
tf have you done you spoon
hm
okay
if we have
2y = x + 2
y = (x + 2) / 2
y = 1/2x + 1
negative reciprocal is -2
np
tell us your result
we can plot and check 
looks okay, but did you make sure they cross at point (2,3)?
Yes
aight awesome. good luck on the next one

i don’t know where i’m going wrong for this proof
,rccw
what are you trying to do?
i did the basis, inductive step etc and now i’m just trying to prove the rhs=lhs
i can show that part if you’d like
but i’m getting 1/4 and -1/4
The first line in LHS, 5^(k-1) is wrong. It's 5^k - 1
omg my handwriting fucked me at some point THANK U
wait nevermind i get it wrong still
what did you try
you can't cancel like that
write down what you're trying to get to and keep that in mind while you simplify the fraction. You're basically there, but forgot where you were going
like i can’t cancel the 5^k/5^k and the 5/20?
no
for the same reason you can't cancel in (2-1)/2
since that is obviously 1/2
but if you cancel the way you did you get (1-1)/2 = 0
oh i’m stupid i see now bless!!!

how the heck do i work this out?
gaussian elimination
o_O
Do you not see they have asked to use substitution?
And how do i do that?
Substitute the y in the first equation in the second. Solve for x. Plug in x in either of the given equations to get y.
Wait what, how do i substitute the y?
You're right.

Find three integers m such that 13≡7(mod m).
Recall the definition of congruency in mod m
hmm, congruency means they're the same. so eg 5mod 2 = 3, and 10 mod 7 = 3
excusing my use of =
a ≡ b (mod m) <-> m divides (a - b)
So in this case you need to find integers m which divide 6
ohhh
I am not sure if mod 1 is acceptable so the answers are 2, 3 and 6
ohh, is it like
in the world of modulo 2, even if we pass a number that is 0 mod 2, we can still go on
to get 7 mod m that is congruent to 13
um actually, idk what i was going on about

isnt f'(x) always gonna be 0 ?
Why would it be that?
But its not a whole number?
Yes
ok thanks

I don't get how it went from the first step to the second
cos^2 * (1 - sin^2) - sin^2 * (1 - cos^2) = cos^2 * cos^2 - sin^2 * sin^2 = cos^4 - sin^4 = (cos^2 - sin^2)(cos^2 + sin^2) = cos^2 - sin^2
how'd you get cos^2 * cos^2 - sin^2 * sin^2
oh
nvm
but you can't get cos^4 because one is with alpha and the other is with beta
yeah but it's the same issue with one being alpha and the other being beta
So you can't cancel them out

Hey, I got 5/3 or 1.666666
,rotate
Can you please send another image that isn't rotated
me too, but 1.6 isn't in the choices
I can't really see the other one
Maybe it's asking for the height of the virtual image

Hello could I get some help on what to do equation wise for this word problem plz?
"The average person drinks about 3⅕ cups of coffee per day. If a person works 5 days a week for 50 weeks every year, estimate how many cups of coffee that person will drink in a working lifetime of 51¾ years."
It's once again my final question so help is needed <@&286206848099549185>
My first impression of this server was awesome, but having to wait the 15 mins, tagging helpers and seeing others getting help long after I've asked, and my name going further and further down the occupied list begs to differ. Like it's been nearly 20 mins now and no help.
<@&286206848099549185>
you're acting like you're entitled to help, which you're not. no one is being paid to help you. don't expect people to put more time into helping you than you put into asking your question. read the message the bot sent.
I pinged after the 15 mins and ita now 30 and all I'm seeing is my name going down the list.
This was NOT the impression I was given a few days ago when I first joined the server. I never said I was entitled, just wasn't given this impression the first time asking and joining.
So either help, or get off the chat so someone else who is more kinder to someone with anxiety and PTSD can.
you're certainly acting like it lmao
read the bot message
also don't try gaslighting, that's just an asshole move.
Not gaslighting at all. I have anxiety and PTSD and this is only bringing back memories of when I've asked for help before and had to wait weeks to months on end only to need the question answered long before then, as I was badly falling behind then, just like I am now.
no one is being paid to help you buddy
don't expect people to put more time into helping you than you put into asking your question.
I'm not ur buddy. Never will be with ur disrespectful behaviour towards me.
if you actually put time and effort into your question, maybe someone will come and help you.
you're the one being disrespectful and rude.
I did the same thing last time and someone was right there ready to help.
okay and
So don't tell me what is right and wrong to ask for help with.
lol okay buddy
@wanton lake Has your question been resolved?
@wanton lake what have you tried
When you ask a question on this server, it is easiest for someone to help you if you explain where you got stuck.

q
where is the 5
but the 5 is in 5-tan2x
yes
this is what you wrote
no
oh that tan(3pi/5) - tan(2x)
yes
are you supposed to use angles?
do you know what the value of tan 3pi/5 is
i dont know
ok, ok
mmh
i dont think it hel pme
what should i do for this
lemme think for a sec what you could do
what did you do with the tan?
im 18, first year of career
tan2x<=tan(3pi/5)
so you reverse the inequality and make both positive
yes
you cant do them numerically right
wdym by numerically
Okey
no its not for a homework
<@&286206848099549185> do u know any other solution?
its because tomorrow i have a test equation/inequation and she often put exercice like this
initial problem is tan(3pi/5) - tan 2x >= 0
what is the range of x
@glossy wavei can do arctan3pi/5 ?N
nah, that isnt exact
can you tell me the range of x because it can have infinite values
0,2pi
ok
so there will be 4 inteervals
and tan 3pi/5
is negative
so you to satisfy the equation you need the value of tan of 2x that can have a more negative value
this is a conceptual method and i asuume you know less of equations of trigonometry
so first interval is [pi/4,3pi/10]
second interval will be [3pi/4,7pi/10]
similarly find the next two interval
yes
do you understand this
i need to get a value inferior to tan2x
yes value of tan2x will be btween (-inf, arctan3pi/5]
i dont know the value of arctan3pi/5
sorry, something came up. I need to go now
you can find that it is negative with info
