Okay 👌
Cause that’s what stops it from accelerating
Out of curiosity
If I then had to find the acceleration would I just do smth like this?
something like what
did you make up that problem
No
cause in the question you asked before it is stationary
Hang on
the whole reason we can set it to 0 is because it is not accelerating in the y direction
it is hanging
since we know a_y = 0, ma_y = 0 so sum(F_y) = 0
This time I calculated the horizontal components and added them up
Then found what acceleration is using f/m
yes
So it’s fine to have negative acceleration?
that just means its going in the negative direction
but your work is still relatively disorganized
stick with symbols
Ity
its so much harder to mess up
I suck at mechanics
you dont suck
But thanks for all the help 🙏
no problem
I didn’t manage to get into my course because of mechanics.
So I’m stuck here doing a foundation year lol 😂

Hi everyone! I need help with this problem:
First, I decided to split up the triangles to make it easier for myself to see
Then I came up with the equation:
PQ = (RT-RP) - QT
So then I started substituting:
PQ = (10-RP) - 5
So at this point, I needed to solve for RP.
I looked at that red triangle and since there is an angle being bisected, I decided to use the angle bisector theorem
So using the angle bisector theorem:
8/6 = (PT/10-PT)
80 - 8PT = 6PT
oh shit
i see where i went wrong
sorry

Helllo?
o thts how it works
F(x)=2x/x-1
The question is asking to find all asymptotes that we are doing in class
So i found the Vertical asymptote and horizontal asymptote
But the question is also asking to graph this rational function
Now would I just plut the VA x=1 and HA y=2
Draw the dotted lines and that would be the ened of it?

is this correct?
remember, $\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}$...
FireBlazer
so which part is incorrect
Are you just guessing?
if we divided both sides of the first equation by $\cos^2 \theta$, we would get $\tan^2 \theta + 1 = \sec^2 \theta$
FireBlazer
is that what we want tho?
no
yea?
we want $\cot^2 \theta$, not $\tan^2 \theta$
FireBlazer
yea thats what I got
I did sin^2(theta) + cos^2(theta) = 1
and simplified it down to
1 + cot^2(theta) = sec^2(theta)
What did you do to simplify to this?
u got that from dividing both sides by $\cos^2 \theta$?
FireBlazer
yea
tan^2(theta) + 1 = sec^2(theta)
And is that what you want for the first question?
How
dividing both sides by tan^2theta
No
You don't use multiple division steps like that
All you need is one single division step
tan^2(theta) + 1 = sec^2(theta)
If that is what you got when you divided by cos, is that what you want as an answer for the first problem?

how did they even do this
well what did they substitute?
like it would be 4 [sin^2t*csc^t} no?
they multiplied the 4
but idk how they got rid of all the trig
oh actually, what is the csc equal to?
yea
I hate these explanations
makes sense tho i see how they got there
thank you so much

I have what has to be an abnormally easy question around here. If I wanted to find out how many sets of 5 teams of 6 men could be made from a pool of 30 men, how would I do that?
Not just the combinations of 6 men, but the combinations of 5 teams each containing six men, with no man on more than one team... I feel like I'm making this harder than it is
@dim gust Has your question been resolved?
you shuffle all 30
and divide into 5
and then you unshuffle the contents of teams and the order of teams
30! / 5! / 6! / 6! / 6! / 6! / 6!
so 11423951396577720
you can also think of it like
take the first person alphabetically
pick 5 more men
take the next unpicked person and repeat
29c5 × 23c5 × 17c5 × 11c5
same result

So a rational function doesnt has 0?
f(x) / g(x) where g(x) cant be 0?
this is where the function is defined
the zeros of the function are precisely the zeros of f(x) where g(x) is nonzero
but how what if it is 0
and
1/-1.5 = -0
-0.67*?
as in
there will be a munis right
minus*
minus sign
cuz -0.67 and 0.67 are confusing me nvrm i got it
also
R--{0} what does this mean
R here is relation

im mildly confused about how to approach that gcd(a,b) times lcd(a,b) = ab
i thought i had an idea, but there are like many ways to prove this it hink
but i want to use divisibility
it's quite simple, actually
say you want to find lcm(a, b)
it is the least number that is divisible by both a and b
now say gcd(a, b) = x
this means a/x and b are coprime (as all the common divisors have been erased by dividing a by common divisors with b), so lcm has to be divisible by ab/x (as it's div. by a/x and b)
in fact, it can just be ab/x, as it fits as an lcm, as both a/x and b/x are integers, so lcm = ab/x, which means gcd * lcm = ab
@crimson sedge
sorry im reading thrpugh this! thank you
yeah sure np
this is the same as the least common multiple?
it is its definition lol
i think its like ab / gcd(a,b) right?
yeah lcm(a, b) is that

lmao? those look like anxiety meds
is this like a WLOG for a and b
yep
can we break this down even more
why do you start off by choosing to find the lcm(a, b)
because it's meaningful to do that: it looks the weirdest in the equation
so we might wanna comprehend it rather than anything else
hence we want to prove lcm(a, b) = ab/gcd(a, b)
also would i need to prove (as all the common divisors have been erased by dividing a by common divisors with b specifically
i think i understand this more than ```
this means a/x and b are coprime (as all the common divisors have been erased by dividing a by common divisors with b), so lcm has to be divisible by ab/x (as it's div. by a/x and b)
this is just the proof for that
you could also prove it by saying that if you remove any divisor from ab/x it will fail, but it's the same
ok
i suck at this math lol
no problem lemme explain
a and b have some common divisors, right?
x is basically all of them
yes i got that
so if you remove x from both, they won't have any common divisors
but in fact you don't need to remove it from both, because if you remove it from one it'll be gone
look: a = x * p and b = x * q
wait brb
sorry about the coprime thing, it's quite confusing. not the point
ehh im kinda the opposite at gifted in math
so because of this we need lcm to be pqx, so it is divisible by both px and qx
i sorta need to break down like everything unfortunately
so
if remove any factor from pqx, it will look like pqx/m
so let's look at (pqx/m)/px and (pqx/m)/qx
they both have to be integers by the definition of lcm
so q/m and p/m are integers
but q and p don't have any common divisors, hence it's impossible
@crimson sedge yeah bruh I just forgot how to prove this
sorry that I didn't type it out later and left you confused

I want to move that minimum closer to the origin
while maintaining the overall... kindof shape
Like without making f(4) much closer to 0
hard to describe what im after 
===
f is a cost function for minimization, and I need the above shape with:
f(a) > f(b)fora <= 0, b > 0f(0)is the supremum off(a),apositive- The minimum as close to 0 as possible
so this wouldnt work cus this
Ask me for clarification 
so graphically, I like want to just squash the function between 0 and 1
How are you allowed to transform f

I want to end up with an analytic function
so the transformations should be continuous
and... not too complicated preferably?
===
But yeah, I was just asking here for ideas more than anything
I just can't think of how to do that squash
f(cbrt x) kindof works, but then the slope at the origin is infinite and I cant have that 
kindof, not really tbh
====================
To give more details uh
The cost function should be infinitely differentiable.
It assigns a 'cost', and I want to punish values far from 0. In addition to that, I do not want negative values at all, so it should heavily punish negative x.
The function is a cost, so the larger the value, the higher the cost/punishment
===
I have an array of values I want to minimize the sum of the cost f(x_1) + f(x_2) + ...
The problem with the green graph is that the minimiser software thinks it can't do much better at say f(4) because the slope is negligible
and my x_1's range from roughly [-2, 10]
https://i.imgur.com/MisXCaT.png
So any function with this shape fits the bill. I want the minimum as close to the origin as possible and the slope to be non-negligible for x < 10
ah found a solution
(repeatedly) applying h(x) = ln(x+1) to the input makes that slope flattening slow down

They're constants. Greaka wants to prove that the sum of the squares of a, b, and c are less than (abc +2).
Real numbers ??? Positive numbers ??? Integers???
No I Wonna prove: a + b + c =< abc + 2

what is p? i dont understand the tables and how they wrote p for some of them
Gcd means greatest common divisor?
how is the lcm of 1 and p, p
helo
it is
it's a prime number
if p is prime
ok so how is the gcd of p and 1 p
2nd table
might be easier to explain with an example
but the gcd of 1 and 7 is 1
yes?
ok wait i think im just confusing myself
how is b x a of a = 1 and b = p, p
yes i see that now
where is that

and same for a^2 and b^s
oh wait AM and GM would help here
yea so bruh then how do i show b^2>bc
wait I don't think that works too

i'm also solving this along with you
and you are getting my thoughts raw
hmmmm ok but im also under a time crunch as it's due tomorrow 💀
this, use the fact that A>G
alright
lmao I also have my homework to do, but taking a break
but it's due in a couple of hours
RIP
nahhh i'm fine, it's just discrete mathematics
for compsci ?
for maths degree
oooh nice
how about you?
still in high school 🥲
No you cannot
it's a direct prrof
yh we been through this
oooh i finally got it
yup
my answer too
(there's only 1 answer)
as far as i'm aware
How do you know that a^2(b^2+c^2) => a^2(2bc)

what
@steady anchor I don't think i understood your question right can you rephrase it
TheWhiteShadow
what about them
if you show u1 is independent from u2 and vice versa what will you achieve from it?
so $au_1+bu_2=\mathcal{P}_2$
TheWhiteShadow
sorry im not familiar P2 represents 2D?
therefore $span({u_1, u_2})=\mathcal{P}_2$
all 2nd degree polynomial
TheWhiteShadow
right
and since {u1, u2} is a subset of S, S is also a spanning set
yea i think that works
ah okay this makes sense now i was confused with p2
for part b do we need to include all the elemtns?
originally i thought you had to prove each u is independent
seems like it
also does this work
but you can make a matrix system equation out of each scalar before variables
you're probably going to need 3 elements.
wait why
P2 has dimension 3
but each elements are in the same dimension no?
yes you beed 3x3 matrix
is that not how it works
and show that it is independent
first write down the 3x4 matrix
pretty sure P2 is "up to degree 2" polynomials. Otherwise it isn't a vector space.
and from there you have 2 possible 3x3 matrices
okay yea mb up to
actually there are more
but yeah get each scalar factor in front of each variable to build the 3x4 matrix
to prove if the 3x3 matrix of your choice is independent or not you either reduce the matrix with basic operations or find the determinant≠0

@steady anchor this is what you got
now from this 3x4 matrix you can make many different 3x3 matrices, try 3 first rows and find it's determinant
if it's determinant is different from 0 it means you have a independent matrix
after that for question B you can use the new matrix 3x3
after that if let's say your basis is
1 1 1
2 -1 -2
5 1 1
you do Ax=B
1 1 1
2 -1 -2 * X = [5 -2 0]
5 1 1
right cheers

So for b i got 2.5 bacteria but that seems way to low but i dont know where i went wrong
@fringe escarp Has your question been resolved?
You want to be integrating y with respect to time instead of .5y w.r.t. y, this of because y is the quantity you want to average (number of bacteria) and you are averaging over a time interval (so you integrate w.r.t. time)

is there another way to solve this other than using lhopital?
manipulation considering conjugates and factorisation of difference of two cubes
should i start with the conjugate of numerator or denominator ?
In num take x^2 common from root
conjugates / duifference of two squares to rationalise the sqrt(x+1) - 3
factorisation for difference of two cubes to rationalise the cbrt(x) - 2
i don't quite get the 2nd step here TT what should i do after this?
factorisation for difference of two cubes to rationalise the cbrt(x) - 2
considering the factorisation for a difference of two cubes,
(cbrt(x) - 2) * (what) = something rational
The denominator is more complex now

i am a little confused over it
if uve to take a above it becomes inverse
if u take a from number one its correct
if u do it from 2, why its not?
Don't think of A inverse as dividing by A in the sense of actually putting it below B
do you remember that matrix multiplication is not the same from the left as it is from the right
When we have $Ax=B$
AustinU
If we multiply both sides by A^-1 from the right we get
my tutor has been teaching it this way
$AxA^{-1}=BA^{-1}$
AustinU
x = b/a
See how the A and A^-1 can't cancel
because they aren't connected
So we have to multiply by A^-1 From the left
it is
AustinU
did you get my question
Please speak in full sentences and properly articulate your confusion
we are learning from this scenario
I'll try to give you an explanation okay? please read it
ok
I think your confusion is coming from the fact that you don't see why matrix multiplication is different from the left than it is from the right. You are probably used to the fact that in normal algebra, a * b is the same as b * a. But, for matrices this is not always true. Make up 2 random 2x2 matrices A and B, and multiply them together first with A on the left and then with A on the right, see that the results are different? This shows you that AB is not the same as BA and you can't just interchange the positions of matrices in multiplication.
So the real real real key point is ** Order matters for matrix multiplication **
thank you so v much

Can a line (Not Lime Segment) be Defined as an arc of a circle with its radius at infinity
And in the same way, can a point be defined as a centre of a circle with its radius as infinity
@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?
Well, lines are mostly undefined and only has their properties inherited from axioms, so.... Not really, since no axiom implies as such, is there?
But the staement isnt false either is it?
it is since lines are not defined at all in the first place
we only defined what can make lines, and what lines can represent and where they can appear, but not what exactly they are

how do i do this question, I dont understand
3rd?
which question
3
!status
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
1 i think?
ye
well, from question, what does the length of wire represent?
ye
ye
ItzKraken2
write it out on paper and send a photo (if u can)
now if u put d = 2r
u would have
$$ {\frac{\theta\pi2r}{360}} + 2r $$
ItzKraken2
can u find smthing to take common in this expression?
can u rewrite this expression after taking out common
its more convenient and also intended that you work in radians
missing a bracket, after 2r
well..I'd multiply both sides by 180 upong pi ig?
wait 1sec
okay
$$ 2r({{\frac{\theta\pi}{360}} + 1}) = 80 $$
yeh, or you could do that from here,
or just start with more simpler pre-established formula for arclength using for an angle in radians
right..me stupid 😢
ItzKraken2
well from this, can u obtain an expression for theta?
yk i think ramanov was right
a
if we consider theta in rad
then the formula for perimeter
is
$$ \theta*r + 2r = 80 $$
ItzKraken2
how..?
i
OH
wait
I AM DUMB
i forgot my
got it
radius
yeah
ye
$$ \theta = \frac{80-2r}{r} $$
well gg
wha
u made a mistake
whaaa
r*theta = 80-2r
oh
theta = 80/r - 2
oh yea
ItzKraken2
yay
well coming to area
ye
also i cant help with part ii, since afaik only a function has a stationary point
yeah, but how do u do that with a variable? i think its asking to find the derivative of the area function
yeah
np
u found the stationary point?
no
not yet
HAHAHA
the stationery point is r=20
ye
its correct
thank you

For every a,b in G, a○b is in G.
Would this be correct way of writing the statement above?
$\forall{a,b \in \mathbb{G}}, a \circ b \in \mathbb{G}$
MathIsAlwaysRight
how would it be written with parenthesis?
$\forall(a,b \in \mathbb{G})(a \circ b \in \mathbb{G})$

Given f(x) = x^3 - 3x. How many squares can be found if their points are located on the graph of f(x)?
Seriously I need help because I have no idea what to do at first 💀
Is the domain R?
They announced that the answer was 2
x^3 - 3x (I mean like it contains the points that make up the squares)
uh wait what
And I have to find the number of squares can be found
No, I was asking you that to understand what you have to do
what function have as values squares?
(geometric) squares with all points being on the curve
Yeah that's right
this looks pretty nontrivial to solve actually
or at least there's a lot of moving parts to it...
It's from a mock test in my province
?
Sorry wdym
I have no idea what you're asking either
it really doesn't seem like there'd be any squares
I'm asking which function give you a square when you input a value x into it?
x^2
yes
@old pine you have completely misunderstood the problem.
Isn't the problems asking for all the squares that are contained in the function x^3 - 3x?
But the announced answer was 2 and I have no idea tho, I also tried graphing by hand and only found 1 (didn't even know how to prove that was a square)
there might be a square arranged roughly like this (finger drawing on a bus, so it's shaky)
Yes I drew it like that
Ohhhh
But there is another square idk what to do
Hmm
dunno
coordinates are (a,b) (b,-a) (-a,-b) (-b,a)
so we could try plugging those all in to y=x^3-3x and solving
oh. for a square centered at the origin i guess that is so
😂 But that'd be too complicated
For me ig
,w b=(3b-b^3)^3-3(3b-b^3)
hmm
Can you tell me why this equation would be used tho @gritty viper

question 18
how do I get the area without the height
well you could in fact find out the height of the trapezium
and then go the common route
trapezium?
trapezoid
oh
Same
but i dont know how to find the height
Hm idk if this is the easiest method, but try drawing lines down from the top base to the bottom base (perpendicular)
yea thats what i did
Then u can use Pythagoras
Show me what u labeled the sides
but its on both sides
Good
Do this
And according to this, what must x+y = ?
is x and y 4 and 9?
ohh ok
So what’s x + y =
5
Just do each individual triangle
Lol if u know just do it, don’t overcomplicate it, just do Pythagoras on one triangle and tell me what u get
Don’t let the variables confuse u
U don’t need to solve for anything
Just do the Pythagoras
but what number do i use for the base
Use x as the base for the first triangle and y as the base for the second triangle
just apply a^2 + b^2 = c^2 to it
U don’t need to use a number
It’s fine lol, don’t solve for anything
Don’t find any value
Just do the Pythagoras
Just set it in the form a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Don’t
Yes exactly
Lol
Do that to the other
We are trying to get a system of equations for which we can solve for x and y
yea
Now with the first 2 equations, get one equation with both x and y in it
x^2 + h^2 = 16
y^2 + h^2 = 25
Make one equation with both a “x^2” and “y^2”
?
That’s not an equation
Notice how both equations both have a “b”
Solve for “b” then see if u can go from there
b = c - a
b = e - d
Now what can u do
To get a and d in the same equation
I’m trying to get u to understand the process
That’s the reason I’m using another example right now
Now do that for these
wdym by that
h^2 = 16 - x^2
h^2 = 25 - y^2
Set them equal to each
Equation 1 = equation 2 because both are equal to h^2
Have u ever done systems of linear equations before? This should be a relatively straightforward concept if you are doing geometric problems of this caliber
ohh
