which is (x)^2 + 2(x)(1/x) + (1/x)^2
$(x)^2 + 2(x)(1/x) + (1/x)^2$
Jshy <3
yeah
Ohhh right
ok, i just couldnt interpret that in a straight line
okay yes, that makes sense
where has the -2 come from then?
what do you get when you expand out everything and simplify
From this? @amber ridge
yeah
$\frac{x^4+2x^2+1}{x^2}$
Jshy <3
idk what you’re doing either haha
it’s pretty simple, no need to overthink it
it’s just applying (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
im now really confused, could you guide me through this?
Im quite lost at this stage
I understand this
im just confused where the -2 comes from at the end
Jshy <3
to the next equation
What you showed me above was getting from the final answer to the first answer
How would you go the opposite way?
well it’s not totally obvious how you’d do it
you could probably derive it from completing the square
right okay
I will need to work a bit more on this question
thanks for your help

Hey there
Question is: There are two points; A(2,1) and B(-1,-3). Will the perpendicular bisector of line segment AB pass through the point (2,-2)
No clue where to start here.
I do know the basic formulas like m = y2-y1/x2-x1 , M= (x1+x2, y1+y2) etc.
what is the midpoint?
are you sure about the x value?
Pretty sure, yeah 2+(-1) divided by 2
what is 2+(-1)?
yeah, so it should be +0.5
yeah my bad
no worries, next you need the gradient/slope of the line joining the points
So m= y2-y1 over x2-x1?
yeah
And I put in the values of A and B right
yeah
you can simplify that
12?
its division, not multiplication
I'm not sure.. 4 over 3?
yup, the '-' cancel leaving you with 4/3
okay, so now, do you know what a perpendicular bisector actually is?
Kind of
I imagine it as a dotted line cutting through AB or whatever
90 degree angle
cutting through where?
the midpoint
so if it's running through the midpoint, the midpoint is (0.5, -1) and not (2,-2)
the line does pass through (0.5,-1) but we cant check if it passes through (2,-2) yet, we need to do a bit more
ah
knowing the gradient/slope of AB is 4/3, do you know what the gradient of a line perpendicular to it would be?
I probably should know, but I don't
no worries, if we have 2 gradients $m_1,m_2$, then $m_1$ and $m_2$ are perpendicular if $m_1\cdot m_2=-1$, they are negative reciprocals of eachother
AℤØ
oh right right I remember something about m1 and m2
and how m2 basically
is like for example 3 over 4
but flips and becomes -4 over 3
exactly
so is this the case we're in?
the gradient of out perpendicular bisector is indeed -4/3
wait no, sorry, its -3/4
the original was 4/3
but your logic is right
I've had problems somewhat similar to these without using the negative reciprocal, how do I know when it's one of the steps?
do you have an example?
I don't have an example, but like; why are we using the negative reciprocal in this problem?
basically, our goal here is to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector
to do this we need to know a point it passes through: the midpoint of AB
and its gradient: the negative reciprocal of the gradient of AB
is gradient another word for slope?
yeah
no problem
So we have M= 0.5, -1 and m= -3 over 4
we do, are you familiar with this equation:
$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$
AℤØ
Actually, I'm not
it essentially is just this except y2 and x2 are arbitrary - then multiply both sides by x2-x1
since m is constant for a linear line, it allows you to get an equation for the line if you know its slope and a point it passes through
like y = mx + b
yeah
So I plug what we have into that?
yup plug your midpoint into y1 and x1 and your slope into m
What about the other y and x
they are arbitrary - its like how in y=mx+b, y and x dont have a defined value yet as they are variables
doing this basically gives you the y=mx+b equation
y-(-1)=m(x-0.5)
yup, just plug in your m value too
perfect, now, you could rearrange this into y=mx+b but you dont really have to for this question
since we are checking if it passes through (2,-2) if you plug in y=-2 and x=2, then the left hand side of the = will be the same as the right hand side, if the line passes through it
if they arent equivalent then the perpendicular bisector doesnt pass through (2,-2)
I don't think they're equivalent
have you evaluated it?
(-9/8)
my bad
Thats desmos, right?
yeah
its because youre plotting points, not lines
Oh
you needed to find the gradient and stuff if you want to plot it out
ah
Okay well I appreciate your help, I have another question; if you don't have the time to answer it I understand
like a separate problem
i can have a look
Okay well
Question is:
A line has a y-intercept of 4 and an x-intercept of -5
What is the shortest distance from the origin to this line?
Only thing I'm sure of is that the origin is 0,0
do you have any idea when a point is at a shortest distance from a line?
its when the line from the point to the line is perpendicular to the line itself
I don't fully understand that
its not a very good diagram, but the shortest distance will be the second line from the point to the white line
im not sure how i can explain it properly, however the shortest distance between the point and that line, is a distance joining them that is perpendicular to the line
So this is whats relevant?
yeah, the bits that go beyond the white line dont matter
Right then so the white line is just like, the graph
and the origin is in the middle of that
the origin would be that white dot
it is (0,0) i havent drawn any axes, my diagram is more generic
Oh okay
This video explains how to find the shortest distance of a point from a line.
Textbook Exercises: https://corbettmaths.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Shortest-Distance-between-point-and-line.pdf
this might give you a better idea about the perpendicular part
That line is y=x + 1
is my line put into that same equation?
or is it just
(-5,4)
your line isnt the same equation
you know that the y intercept is 4 and the x-intercept is -5
if we have a generic line y=mx+b
when x=0, y=4
and when y=0, x=-5
can you find m and b with those?
No?
why not?
in what way?
m = (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)
that would provide the midpoint of 2 points, which yes you could do, but you dont need that
you could also use (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) however there is a simpler way
Ok
we have y=mx+b, when x=0,y=4 so 4=b
similar process for finding m, when y=0, x=-5
0=-5m+4
because x=-5 at the y intercept, we have 2 points basically (0,4) and (-5,0)
we are just subbing them into y=mx+b
have a go at determining m and b with the provided info, since we need the equation of that line
I don't know how to do this
I just wrote "4=m(-5)b"
Which I don't think I was supposed to do, but I don't what else to do
not quite, no
we have y=mx+b right? and we have (0,4) and (-5,0)
you should sub those points into y=mx+b separately
so for (0,4) we get 4=m(0)+b
so we know b is 4
Is that it? b = 4 ?
How?
0=-5m+4
no worries😅
so I subtract 4 from both sides?
i mean, you could, i would just add 5m to both sides but it doesnt really matter
you just need to make m the subject
m = 4 over 5
0=5(4/5)+4
that isnt a line equation, youve also written that 8=0 which isnt true
oh wait
is this what you mean?
you dont need to use that
Oh.. I'm lost then
remember, we had y=mx+b, you now know what m and b are, so just replace them with their values
I thought I did that
not quite
i can see what you tried to do, but it wasnt what you should have done since it doesnt make much sense
b= 4
y= 0
x= -5
b, yes, the other 2, no
y and x are variables in our line equation, not constants
they dont have a strict value
What's the proper equation
$y=\frac{4}{5}x+4$
AℤØ
how so?
I pretty much forgot what variables and constants are so I automatically changed the values of y and x
ah i see
Yeah I haven't had to do such weird problems before
yeah, try not to confuse points on a line and the line itself
however thats most of the work out the way really
now you need a line that passes through the origin and is perpendicular to this
hint: it just has the form y=mx
is not just y=4 over 5x?
that would be parallel to the line, not perpendicular
I don't know how to do this, I'm not sure how to draw it and/or visualize it
this is what you have done
you just need to remember what the slope of a perpendicular line is
needs to run through like that right
I just don't know what values to sub in to get that
remember when we did it on the last question?
this
you need to find the m that would be perpendicular to this
negative reciprocal?
yup
y=-5/4
exactly
since it goes through the origin, in y=mx+b, the b=0 so we just have y=-5/4 x
S is our shortest distance
so theres just one more thing we need to find before we can get the value of S
any idea?
Not really but I'll likely facepalm myself upon learning/realizing what it is
the equation for the distance between two points is $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$ we have one point so far (0,0) so we need the second point
AℤØ
oh right! I know that equation
that second point is where these 2 lines intersect
wait but what the heck are the values I sub in
you cant use this just yet
you still need to find this
do you know how to find where 2 lines intersect?
not quite, no
not quite no
we have y=4/5 x+4 and y=-5/4 x
when we have 2 lines: y=mx+b and y=px+q
we can find where they intersect by setting them equal to eachother:
mx+b=px+q, then solve for x
like solving by substitution?
basically
Okay I presumed that and got (0,4)
that wouldnt make much sense
our second line doesnt pass through that point
Oh I don't know then
you need to solve $-\frac{5}{4} x=\frac{4}{5} x+4$
AℤØ
Do I get y the same way
technically you could, but theres no need, you can just sub x=-80/41 into either equation
So y=100/41
yup, so they intersect at (-80/41 , 100/41)
Such ugly numbers
finally, you are able to now use this
ik
wdym?
I did d= (-80/41-(-5))to the power of 2 + (100/41-4)to the power of 2
I subbed it into the formula
im not sure where you pulled -5 and 4 from
oh
our point is the origin (0,0) remember
$\sqrt{(-\frac{80}{41}-0)^2+(\frac{100}{41}-0)^2}$
AℤØ
waits so it's 3.12?
That's.. the entire thing?
indeed
holy shit that was mind grueling I could've never done that myself
I didn't know the steps
😅 its alright once you figure out what you need, you can work backwards
and I got the -5 and 4 from the very beginning e.e
since just subbing in 0,0 I don't know.. seemed wrong to me
I didn't think logically
I always forget the vital stuff like that
ah, yeah just remember these are the x and y intercepts of the line
Doing longer equations
I've got two more questions like these but I'll have to figure them out in the morning
two more long(ish?) questions
if you follow the general stuff from here you should be alright
itll become natural the more you do it
Thank you for the 1.5 hours of help though
no worries
is there a way to archive this?
or something
hm, i dont think so, but if you see that search bar in the top right
type: from:Cwuka
and it should show you a list of your past messages so you can jump to here
ah yeah
Thank you for your time I'll have to see if any helpers can help me in the morning
no problem, have a good night
You too, or whatever time of day it may be for you
2am atm😅

- How did you get x_i=1+(1/2)I?
- How did you get that f(1+(1/2)i)=(1+(1/2)i)-1?
Also good freakin' patience lol
First start by finding x_i
As you can see from my message, I am perplexed by the answer you gave in the picture
Hmmm...
You could
But you didn't use the proper a and width
Weirdly enough you wrote that a is -10 above but then used 1 for some reason
Also, width is just Delta x
-10
Notice you had cancelled out the minus signs above
It was -1-(-10)
Math be like
Indeed
Yep
I suggest you simplify it to -10+1i-1=-11+i before rewriting it into the sum
Wait actually something feels wrong
I just rewrote the -1 you had put in but I'm starting to question why you even put it there
Oooh I'm dumb
Sorry I forgot to mention the second problem
So x_i is indeed -10+i
Actually let's just write it i-10
But f(i-10) would not be (i-10)-1
Notice when you did it the first time you forgot the square
It would be (i-10)^2-1
Ah fudge did I miss an off-by-one error again
I was thinking about that too
I guess it would be easier to change the x_i formula
Oh sure that works
I was gonna ask if i was 0-indexed or 1-indexed
If it is 1 indexed then everything works fine already
Yes
0-indexed would be a left Riemann sum
But if it's a mid Riemann sum then... :/
Another method which would always work is to add a shift to i in the formula, which I'll call s:
x_i=a+(i+s)(Delta x)
left: s=0
mid: s=1/2
right: s=1
Honestly I have no idea if there's a standard way to do it
I just made the shift method up
Did you write i=x under the sigma?
I can't quite make out what that symbol is
In that case, you can .close this channel

Are they similar triangles?
yes
Can you post the entire question? Something is missing here
alrr
thats all
this is the other 2
yeah that's supposed to be congruent not similar
oh mb
if two figures are congruent then you can just equate both the sides
equate the length of RY and BT
aite
rotate the RUY triangle in the direction with the green arrow and then rotate it so that it matches the orientation of the BTE
Ahhh
which is how i figured RY and BT lie on top of each other and yeah you just equate the sides
Anyway that's it, if you don't have questions you can probably close the channel

Probability of a person having O- blood in the world: 3/30
30 ppl in a room
One person who gives their blood is o negative, whats the probability of the next person being o-negative
2/29?
Idk it's a guess
Dont think so
Cause then if 3 ppl have o- blood then the probability of the 4th person having it is 0
But thats not true
Hmmm i see
it should still be 3/30
Thats what i wrote
(assuming the selection of participants are random)
But all my friends r telling me its 2/29
Whats your reasoning behind this?
well it's like flipping a coin
line up 30 coins
first one flips head
what is the chance you get heads on the 2nd flip
50%
Hmm yes
because each of the coinflips are independent events
hence why i said this
But what if u gathered every single person on earth
doesn't matter
And then u run out of o- ppl
what if you gather all the coins in the world
Then why it isn't like 1 over all the no. of blood groups in this world?
that's why it matters whether they are independent or not
if there is only 1 O- person in the world
and the first one was O-
then obviously the conditional probability makes the 2nd impossible
Over here the 1st one is O-
but, here since the "population of earth" is a very big number
revealing 1 to be O- doesn't mean much in the grand scheme
Yeh my reasoning here was that 1 person being O- doesnt change the probability much
Since 0.1 of 8 billion is still 800 million
that's why i said the group of people needs to be random
What does that mean
well
The question just said theres 30 ppl in a room
if you look at a family of people
a family of 30 people
since genetics play a big part in your blood type
Then the probability obviously differs
Some ppl said u needed to put 2.9/29
no
ok
30 people
50 people
8 billion people
it doesn't matter how many are in the room
P(first is O-) = 30/100
P(second is O-) = 29/99
P(2nd O- | first is O-) = P(2nd O- AND first is O-)/P(first is O-)
= (3/100 * 29/99)/(30/100) = 29.29%
so it's a little less right?
Yes
this is when there's only 100 people in the world
,calc (3000/10000 * 2999/9999)/(3000/10000)
Result:
0.2999299929993
this is with 10k people
,calc (2310000000/7700000000 * 2309999999/7699999999)/(2310000000/7700000000)
Result:
0.29999999990909
nice
I see
that's with 7.7 billion people
It was basically in the form of a tree diagram
like yes it does change the probability
but it's not like there's only 30 people in the world
So i had to fill out the branch which said 2nd person is 0- after 1st person is also O-
Do you think theyd cut marks if i put 3/30
Instead of the big decimal
Since it was a small box

The distance between cities A and B is 350 km. A tourist traveled from city A to B and 3 hours later the second tourist who arrived in City B 1 hour later than the first. Find the speed of each tourist if their ratio is 5:7
The ratio is of speed or time?
trying to understand the question becuase it is paraphrased a bit incorrectly
yeah translated from diff language
which language?
Oh I cant read georgian ,
So the second started moving 3 hour after first started moving
yeah so correct me if i am wrong: So the distance is 350km. A reaches 1 hour before B and their speeds are in ratio 5:7?
yes
ok lemme try
b started moving 3 hr after a started tho
is the speed of first 10km/hr?
50 km/h
oh damn
maybe u got x=10 and speed of the first is 5x
yea
one sec

the speed of second tourist is 43.75?
wait sorry
70 right?
yes

I am doing a dct problem, but I am confused by the answer in my book
Doesn't c equal the first instance in a series?
if that's the case, then how is c ≠ 1/2?
well yeah it should be 1/2 and not 1
This is confusing. Maybe there is something regarding the larger context of the problem
nah its just a slight (inconsequential) instance of inattention to detail
for convergence purposes it doesnt even matter what the first term is
what matters is that the common ratio is less than 1 in magnitude, which it is
and is stated as such
So because b_n converges, then a_n converges by the DCT?
nothing is given such names here
we have two positive series, one greater than the other termwise
the greater one converges, therefore so does the smaller

But I need something bigger than ln(n)/sqrt (n)
For convergence
Idk what the thought process is in this situation
right so n/n^3 is the wrong one to compare to
.
Oh wait lol
So the limit is 0
Than means
Sqrt(n) is bigger
So sqrt(n)/n
Hmm
Still not convergent
Oh bruh
I'm tired and it shows
I need to prove that this is convergent
Should I use integrals rule?
I've got a hint for you, what's 2/2?
(no that isn't a troll question before anyone asks and
's me
)
Triangle

Do you remember log rules?
I do
Think about why I'm asking that question 
I’ll make a comment that it seems like you used that ln(x) < x, that is useful…
To be fair that hint was (deliberately) vague
what I will say is that the aim is to do this here
So I should aim to find another convergent series
fair. i wanted mike to suffer a little bit

this is one of those problems where i can't think of a hint that doesn't give it away completely
but maybe that's okay since mike's suffered enough already
multiply the top and bottom by something that gets your sequence of terms
$\frac{\log(n)}{\sqrt{n}}\cdot ? =\frac{\log(n)}{n^2}$
riemann
n^3/2???
So n^3/2 * log(n)/n^2?

my question is that it says write the value of underroot 4900, so square root of 49 is 7 times 7 therefore can you say its 7 and 2 zeroes, the answer is incorrect
Why 2 zeroes?
that is what i did not understand
square root of 49 is 7, they have written underroot of 4900?
Are you meaning to type "underroot"? What does that mean?
MathIsAlwaysRight
But why do you think you have to add two zeroes to the end of 7?
i never came across a question where in an underroot there would be two zeroes mentioned
either they were underroot 49 or like underroot 100 and underroot 25
they wrote here underroot 4900
you should seek to understand what the square root operation is doing, not just base your answer on previous problems
the square root of a number x, is a number y so that y^2 = x
for example the square root of 4 is 2, since 2^2 = 4
as you’ve identified, 7^2 = 49
why would they add two zeroes?
they didn’t “add” anything really
who is "they"
they’re just asking you to compute the square root of a specific quantity
examiners
are they not allowed to ask for the square root of 4900 ?
we like know about 49, 4900 was something that was not tested anytime before in past paper exams
and so i got entirely confused about zeroes
memorising square roots is not gonna get you anywhere.
the two "added zeroes" mean that the number inside has been multiplied by 100
so you should fall back on the definition of a square root and what it means to be the square root of something
there were certain squareroots that were memorized
well thanks
i will try to solve the kind of questions
You’re on the right track but there is a simple logical problem with this. A 3 digit number multiplied by another 3 digit number cannot equal a number with less than 5 digits. You can see this by multiplying the smallest 3 digit number by itself; 100x100; which is equal to 10000. 4900 is less than 10000 which means that the square root of 4900 cannot be a number with more than 2 digits.
thankyou so much, appreciate it!
Since you know that the square root of 49 is 7, you need to simplify the parent number into one that isolates the 49, you can do this by dividing 4900 by 100. Now you’re left with the square root of 49x100.
Now you can see that you have two numbers with simple square roots, 49 and 100. You can square root both of these to get 7x10, which will lead you to your answer: 70

to find roots we sometimes convert it to factored form
what kind of quadratic factored form has just one root?
to have one root, the delta=b^2-4ac should be equal to 0
||this actually has 2 solutions||
use this one
and for the other solution try to think about what happens when n=0
@wraith otter Has your question been resolved?
How could I factor it with no a value
I already tried -1/4
What are a, b, and c in the equation?
yes, should be -1/4 and the other solution should be n=0

Hello, i'm reading linear algebra done right:
here, sequences are just lists with infinite elements, right?
what do you mean by “list”
What you think of the book so far?
and here, functions from S to F is equal to functions with domain S (these functions need to take every element of S) ?
For example, the functions in this set (R^[0,1]) have all domain [0,1], right?
yes
thanks!
I am just beginning to read it so no opinion so far.

The null and alternative hypothesis are in the photo. I've got up to the standard deviation of the proportion of good quality pumpkins out of the total. Does this look right where I've got to and where should I go next?

Ive been trying part iii
and I set the particular integral form to be Pcos(10t) + Qsin(10t)
i then differentiated twice to get an equation for dq/dt and d^2q/dt^2
but in the markscheme the answer is -0.1cos(100t)
I have no idea where the 100t came from when the particular integral form uses 10t

I've looked through my working and I can't see any mistakes
There may be some but then I don't know how the ms got that answer
hmm I am taking a look
okay @winged jewel
I solved it two ways
using undetermined coefficients
and using ERF
both give the same answer (which is different from the one in the answer key)
However, it is also different than your answer
Also wolfram and symbolab both give the same answer that I got
So it seems like both you and the answer key are wrong
I recommend using ERF for this one, much nicer than undetermined coefficients btw
