do you know how to find that limit
lhopital or just seeing that e^n is dominant so it's ~ 3e^n/5e^n
Yes, so this is my work:
yes that's right
Is this the nth term test?
ya
yes
is my process right as well?
nth term test == the divergence test
I never use lhopital
well you might justify that n^2/e^n goes to 0
I just divide by common degree..
but
But how do I know when it goes to 0 and when goes to infinity for terms like these? Is it just whenever I see a constant divided by some strange value?
normally you find goes to 0 by plugging the limit value in
direct evaluation
here you get inf/inf
we know e^n grows much faster than n^2 but this iskinda the use case of lhopital
Still sort of struggling..how do we know it goes to 0? Am I just plugging infinity in for n and realizing this can grow exponentially?
if you do lhopital you get 2n/e^n, then 2/e^n, = 2/infinity = 0
also, like, 100^2/e^100 is 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000003
not a proof though
🤔 ...Okay, for a problem like this though (asking me to evaluate the limit), it converges to to infinity...right?
converges to infinity is called diverges
I don't understand. How do we distinguish when something diverges or converges?
diverges means limit doesn't exist or limit is +- infinity
okay..
I'm just confused on when to use the term "converge" or "diverge"...is it all subjective? For instance, for the problem above, wouldn't we say it converges to infinity and diverges from 0?
oh, diverges from isn't a thing
diverges is just the opposite of converges
I would say it diverges
but maybe there's an argument for "it converges to infinity"
idk
@elder elm Has your question been resolved?
Hey still there?
yes
So is "converges" when it approaches a certain value?
ye
a real value
assuming everything is real in your course
I just said this to exclude infinity
So isn't this arbitrary then? Like is inf not considered a "real value" here?
it is somewhat arbitrary but converging to infinity is a little different from converging to 6, wouldn't you agree
by the definition of limits, goes to infinity is the same as doesn't exist since there's no number where the difference between all terms and it can be arbitrarily small
Okay, so whenever it appears to be going towards inf, its diverging to infinity..
whenever it appears to be converging to any other value, it "converges"
it's diverging, yes
Okay, so let me eplain my thought process on some problems and lmk if I'm understanding it correctly.
So the circled ones are the answers here
mhm
So these are for letter i...
5/1^2, 5/2^2, 5/3^2, 5/4^2
right..and I noticed they are slowly decreasing in value..
ye
does this relate to why its converging?
terms converge to 0
the terms have to have a limit of 0 if the series converges
but limit of 0 doesn't guarantee a convergence ofc
Um
whereas their sum converges to 5pi^2/6
How about this..why is i converging and vi not?
well, there's not exactly an intuitive explanation for why vi doesn't converge,
but the terms decrease slower
and it turns out you can slowly get infinity out of that
So how would I be able to find out which converges and which does not?
there are tests
in this case you would use, well, I learned it as the p-series test, idk if that's what everyone calls it
where sum of n^-p converges if and only if p > 1
could just as well be called the do we have to use the analytic continuation when we compute zeta at this value or are we fine using the direct evaluation test
there's several on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergent_series#Convergence_tests

I plugged in the limit straight into the underlined equation and still got 1 without using lhopitals. Is that a valid solution? Proper solution is below.

Can someone tell me where I went wrong here?
The derivative of arcsin(x) is 1/sqrt(1-x^2)
Not x^2-1
Do you know the trigonometric substitution technique?
Uhhhhh I forgot can you give me a small reminder
Substituting the variable t with a suitable trigonometric function t=a*sin(theta)
as an example
Ohhh yes that’s right
So we’d use a sin theta
A tan theta
Or a sec theta
How do we tell which one to use

I've started by using the maclaurin expansion of ln(1+3x^2)
I know that x=1/2 gets me to a similar form, but it's not exactly that.
What makes you think to take out 1/4 as a common factor?
like what is the thought process
Yeah. But my careless mistake. I think that's not gonna workout
Can you able to express it in more general form?
Like as a summation?
Yep
couldnt find the infinity symbol but hopefully u get it
and i know this
so by comparison i know that x=1/2
but im not sure what to do after that
what do you mean exactly?
like ln(1+x)?
$ln(1+x)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n+1} \frac{x^n}{n}$
kiddie_mano
Compare this with your series
Sry my bad I carelessly assume it's ln(x) instead of ln(x+1)
Use this
ok, we just need to let x=1/2 and multiply everything by n/n+1
Can you about to find what is x in that series?
if we let x=1/2, it gets us close to the series
That's obviously didn't give anywhere
Yeah but the prblm is the denominator
so ur saying theres another value of x that can do the job?
Nope
X=1/2 that's confirm
right, so we have to find a way to change ln(1+3x^2) to that summation
actually, its ln(7/4)
now that we let x=1/2
thats what ive been struggling with
so whats next?
Now you have change the series that exactly look likes this, even the denominator
But add and subtract something or multiply something
thats the difficult part, im not really sure what to do
Finger out using the expanded series
i have, ive looked at it for a while and cant seem to find the correct thing to multiply/add by
Look the expanded series?
You missing the 1 st term, right?
my first term is 3/4
well i changed it to 3/2^2 to make it look more like the series
Nope 1 st term is 3/(2×4)
Yep
Change the question in the way that we can express as ln(1+3x²) and some additional terms
ln(1+3x²) is confusing?
im not confused by anything
i just want to find a quick method to finding what to add/mulltiply/divide/subtract by to get the given form
is there nothing that i can apply here or it is just trying different combinations?
Look at the question... You just need to add 1 st term as 3/4, right?
And for remaining terms you have multiply each term with (-3/4)
Then you get ln(1+3x²) format, right?
You understand this much?
yeah, i just dont know how you realised so fast
thats what im asking
is there like a tricvk
what are u looking for exactly?
I did these kinda prblms in past.
What? I don't understand?
like when you see two series' such as these two
what do u try look for
to solve it
nope
But for this prblm. You the one who mentioned about ln(1+3x²), so I try to connect both ln(1+x) and you question. That's how I got the big picture
It's thanks to you
its because its a part of another question where it asks us to find the expansion of ln(1+3x^2)
so they had to be linked somehow
It's basically instead of writing the series upto ∞ try to write upto nth term
alright, then whats ur next step?
is it possible to just let my series, S, equal to a+bln(7/4) then just compare coefficients to find a and b?
Yeah. Somewhat math is all about connecting everything, that's why they try to give as much prblms as they could to train your brain with some particular method so that you can connect this in future
Then find for n+1 th partial series and go on. Eventually you end up with original question.
If you think deeply, it's basically finding limit sequence
My advise is do as much prblms as you can. Then you get the intuition behind it. But while solving it, enjoy it have fun with it
okay cool, i think this is my best option
so i just cant apply some formula and get away with it, i actually have to try and think about it
So brain take it seriously, that means your subconscious brain will help you to tackle any prblms with ease
Yeah. Have fun with it.
thanks
Any doubt?
nope, makes sense now
Okie then it's time to close

I need to find the accumulation point/s.
I have found that sin repeats at 3k-2,3k-1 and 3k with 0, -sqrt(3)/2, +sqrt(3)/2 respectively. Cos repeats at 2k-1 and 2k with 1 and -1 respectively. I tried using sin repeat intervals and got nowhere and the same with using cos ones. I think I am approaching this in a wrong way and would like some pointers.
@flat cypress Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
hi
idk if its gonna work
but you can draw a line and put this repeats in the line
and after that do the solution set of the values
I am a bit confused. What do you mean to say?
the angle of the sin repeats 180 degrees with every K positive integre
cos*
sorry
the cos repeats 180 degrees
and the sin with 240 degrees
Yeah, I found the sequence for repetition of sin and cos, I just cannot use it since they don't match.
but you only need the sum of the cos and the sin right?
so you can do a solution set with all the possibilites of sum
I need to find accumulation point/s.
ok
Usually when I had cos and sin I needed to eliminate them via common repetition sequences. But these ones do not share it, so I am lost.
but they repeat themselves in the for K = 8
if you continue doing that they will repeat
Yeah, I know. But if I substitute for, let say 3k-2 my n I get indeterminate solutions.
The only idea I had was to substitute again but am unsure if that is allowed or not.
Something like this, although I do not think it is allowed.

start by decomposing these into separate shapes
both of these are rectangles with sections removed
you find the area of the rectangle and subtract the area of the removed sections to find the area of the shape
@frail thistle i know that but how on earth am i suppost to find the length of the tiny sides length
do yk what the little tick notations mean
okay so
that means the sides are equal
all 5 sides on the bottom row and middle row are equal
and since the top is 5, each of the bottom ones must be 1/5th the total width or 1
uh
well
the diameter of the circle is equal to the height of the rectangle
for both circles
cuz the circles r inscribed
would it be
π(3) squared + π(1.5) squared
ye
and since one of them is only a semicircle
you divide the overall area of the circle by 2
you subtract the areas of the circle from the rectangle, because youre trying to find the area excluding the circles
yea

I’m trying to figure out if this is possible. It was on an assignment I turned in and I am trying to remember the problem but this is all I remember. Basically it was about two cars. Car 1 had the equation f(t)=40(0.90)^t and car 2 had a graph that stated that car 2 reached $10,000 in 10 years. And the question asks how many years car 1 would take for it to cost $10000. Let me know if this makes any sense.

What are some limitations of the surge function model in medicinal doses?
wdym
The surge function model has several limitations in medicinal doses:
Limited applicability: The surge function model is suitable only for drugs that follow a one-compartment pharmacokinetic model with first-order elimination kinetics. Many drugs have complex pharmacokinetic profiles that cannot be accurately modeled using this function.
Lack of flexibility: The surge function has a fixed shape, and it cannot accommodate deviations from this shape that may occur due to factors such as drug interactions or changes in the patient's physiological state.
Inability to account for individual variability: The surge function assumes that all patients will respond to a drug in the same way. However, individual variability in factors such as metabolism, body weight, and age can significantly affect drug response.
Limited predictive power: The surge function can provide an estimate of drug concentrations in the body, but it cannot predict the actual clinical effects of the drug on the patient. The clinical response to a drug depends on many factors beyond its concentration, such as the drug's pharmacodynamics and the patient's underlying medical conditions.
Limited utility in dose optimization: The surge function can be useful in determining initial dosing regimens, but it may not be sufficient for optimizing dosing over time. Factors such as drug accumulation, tolerance, and drug interactions can significantly affect the optimal dose and dosing interval for a patient.

Oh LOLL it was another wkst under 😭😭
Shadow exists
Then another question asked to find the direction angles for vector v=2i-3j+k
How do I do that lol
should just be basic trig
oh yeah thats easier
The direction cosines are equivalent to component of unit vector in some direction
Alr so find unit vector first then inverse cos for each ?
Yes
Ok so when I answer the question do I have to specify which angle goes with whatever value?
Like 57.68° i, 143.3° j, 74.5° k
Or smth lkke that
fäf
You're welcome
You know how to get directional vector from a point to another?
Yes

Need help w/ this equation my tangent lines are weird when i graph them on desmos 😭
so the p.o.t I got is (-5, +/- 2.25)
Find the tangents
There's a general tangent equation for hyperbolas
$y = mx \pm \sqrt{a^2m^2 - b^2}$
NEONPerseus
Was it this
oh sorry
The tangent to a hyperbola not the hyperbola
@vagrant elbow what's this called how do we write this?
$ y = a^2
Guess the pm is for mx
Latex
It's called LaTeX #latex-help
oh okay
Was it? I don't remember really
my tangent line of equation is y+/- 2.25 = +/-1.25(x+5)
Let me have a look
The pm seems to be for the constant term
Yeah right
,w equation of tangent to 9x^2 - 16y^2 = 144 at x = -5
wait what

i got 9x/16y as my general derivative
probably dont just post the answer
Was just verifying lol
We still don't know how to arrive at the answer
OP is clearly motivated to do it
Seems correct
right
hold on

What's ∞ + ∞ = ??
this is indeterminate form?
well its infinity again ig? we usually don’t just use infinity we use limits.
Universe .... Something on a quantum scale
Then what if we subtract infinity from infinity
that also means nothing
idk
it depends on the infinities
infinity is just a concept its not defined as a number
also infinity is not a number
ya
That's ummm 🤔
i think vsauce said it himself
iirc
even my calc teacher said so
Do you know quantum tunneling.... If yes then I guess infinity is something like a unreachable limit
Can you share video link
That's Infinity
Depends on the context
Is this regarding limits

idk if this relates but I just thought of this vsauce video when u mentioned infinities
$\sum_{k = 1}^{\infty} k = -\frac{1}{12}$
NEONPerseus
This?
Yeh this
I think there's a BriTheMathGuy video on it
I'll make sure to watch it
And how legal these manipulations are is up for debate
It doesn't break rules afaik but it relies on axioms (that may not be acceptable to all)
Yeh but many questions of sequence and series are solved by this manipulation
Yes I'm aware, it's why it's famous
And if this type of manipulation works for other then why not for this ....
It's just frustrating
It comes down to quirks in infinite summation
Like the legality of the distributive property over infinite summation
Most people do it without a thought though
Ohh
Anyways I think I am wasting others time ... Lemmi close

Can someone help me understand the monotony of graphs and functions?
As I understand it a graph can be said to be increasing if the gradient is positive, and decreasing if the gradient is negative, this I understand
But i'm getting questions in which I'm asked if the entire function is increasing or decreasing, which doesn't make sense to me
f(x) = x^3 + x + 5
for example
and all i'm told is to find out whether the function is increasing or decreasing
shouldn't I be asked to find out whether its increasing or decreasing at a certain point?
how can I find out whether a function is increasing or decreasing just from its equation?
Some functions increase in some places and decrease in others
find f'
well the function could be increasing or decreasing everywhere
or maybe on two intervals
so find the gradient and check where it is positive and where it is negative
I have found f'. My question lies mainly in how this question is asking me to categorize these functions
apparently i should be able to say
"the function f(x) is increasing" - end of statement
not "increasing at x = c"
if you found f' you should be able to answer the question
f'(x) = 3x^2 + 1
"function is increasing" means "function is increasing at every point"
that function is always positive
eg f(x)=x^2 is not increasing or decreasing on all of R. only on parts of it
or f(x)=sin x. stuff like that
so that's when you would say neither
okay
apparently this function is increasing
is this because you get a positive value for f'(x) no matter what x val you put in
yes
x^2>=0
cuz i got to that conclusion by imagining a parabola that never goes below y = 0
you should be able to draw a quad if youre doing calculus
I am able to draw one, but this parabola was quite intuitive to me so imagining that it never dips below y = 0 was simple enough
ok then problem solved
but how would I check if the derivative of this goes below 0 for example:
find f' first
well for starters try calculating the derivative
yes I have
then use that e^x >0
it doesnt

hwacc
@unborn dagger Has your question been resolved?
my best guess is that the integral was supposed to be F(x)
yeah with the question as written there the fact that F' is the derivative of F is completely irrelevant because F isn't mentioned anywhere else, so there's probably a typo somewhere
since knowing the derivative of a function everywhere isn't sufficient to get its value at any one point (you can always add a constant) i'm guessing they meant that F(x) = \int_0^x e^{-t^2} dt

can someone pls confirm
does this function have a critical point at x=0
so is this function not differentiable at x=0
critical point does not imply non-differentiable
Do you know what is critical point
the derivative of 0.3x^2 is 0.6x, including at x=0, where the derivative equals 0
a implies b doesn't mean b implies a
bruh
my teachers teaching me wrong ig
Under that definition do you think x=0 is a critical point?
But clearly that statement doesn't said if at a point function is differentiable then it's not critical point
based on my teachers definition
x=0 is not a critical point
based on what ive just learnt from this convo
it is
Clearly this photo doesn't mentioned it's a definition
yeah its a definition she said to refer to when answering the question
According to wiki
so this point is a critical point bc the derivative is 0
Yeah
so i look at critical points based on both criteria
ok thank you

note at this point that this is just an algebraic expression with no trig involved

is there any calculator to check my answers ? i need to to solve for the coefficents and not the X
@unique tiger Has your question been resolved?
what does the question even mean?
Translating :
Let V = {real polynomials of degree ≤ 3} and U generated by p₁, p₂, p₃ as given. For each given p, determine whether it lies in U. If it does, write p as a combination of the pᵢ and give the coefficient that is asked.
For the first question, p = 2X²+4X-6 and they must determine a₁, the coefficient of p₁.
How did you arrive at the answer of -2 ?

.reopen
✅
i am not sure if that is even correct
i just tried counting in my head
i am sorry i was on a deadline and had to submit it
i suggest you just try on paper
try to write p as the combination of the pᵢ, that will give you an equality of polynomials with the aᵢ in the coefficients
two equal polynomials must have the same coefficients, so that turns into a system of equations
for example
For p = 2X²+4X-6, let's try to write p = a₁p₁+a₂p₂+a₃p₃. The X³ coefficient of p is 0, and the X³ coefficient of the combination on the right is a₁+a₂+a₃, correct ?
Therefore if the aᵢ exist, these two must be equal, i.e a₁+a₂+a₃ = 0.
Do this for each term and you'll get a system of 4 equations in 3 variables. That might not always have a solution, so you need to check that.
so i multiplie also the coefficents of the x's with the a's right ?
i got the answer 2
-2a₂ = 6 means a₂ = -3, not 3
yes

I need help with this
In the public debate in Denmark, there is a lot of focus on the transport sector's emissions of CO2, including the effect of passenger cars on emissions. There are e.g. has been set a target of 1 million electric cars in the year 2030. Statistics Denmark calculates the sales of new cars in Denmark on a monthly basis. The figures are calculated according to the vehicle's fuel (e.g. petrol, diesel and electricity).
The monthly figures for the sale of new cars with the fuels petrol, diesel and electricity since January 2018 can be found in the data file.
a) Make an analysis of the development of sales of new cars in Denmark in the period from January 2018 to August 2022 based on the data material.
The analysis must include:
• Graphical presentations
• Calculations on developments in the sale of cars calculated both in total and on fuels
• Projections of the developments towards 2030 in total and on fuel
• Conclusions on various graphical presentations and calculations
In the analysis, index numbers, curve diagrams, linear and exponential developments, regression analyzes etc. can be used.
this is a whole project basically
My assignment has 4 questions and I answered 3 but this 4th one is very hard for me

what 4th question?
"make an analysis" isn't a question like most of the ones posted here. it's a whole "project", you need to go through the analysis

To find the sum of an infinite geometric series we need to use a formula but the common ratio r should be less than 1
Why is that?
the series diverges otherwise.
consider the full formula for the sum of n terms in a geometric serires
also it's |r| < 1 rather than r < 1
and see what happens when |r| > 1

It uses circle theroems, are you aware of any of these?
Absolutely not, that wasn't even in the book. 😭
I'm ngl they are just a pain and I just had to remeber them. It is worth practising them cuz they like putting them in tests
Oh hang on I'm aware of them, but I don't know how to solve it. I'm currently given the formula (a+b)a=(c+d)c. I think the answer turned into a polynomial and I'm stuck after that.

If anyone here is familiar with twitch's prediction system, it will be very helpful.
Suppose we have a betting system as such: There is a pool of total money. There are two options to bet. For each option, there is a return ratio - a fraction that is the factor that determines how much money you will gain back. So if the return ratio is 2, you will get twice as much money as you put in. Now, the return ratio is determined by the percentage of your bet from of the total money. So, if one option was bet with 50% of the total money, the return rate of that option will be 2. If the option was bet with very small % of the total money, the return rate will be very high as the option is risky.
Yes I have heard this term, thanks for the clarification. What I want is to find the formula that gives me the return ratio given the opposite return ratio. So if I put 2, it will give 2, if i put a large number it will be closer to 1, etc etc.

what in the
I'm not sure how to differentiate since there's theta and w
okay I'm gonna try that
I got this
but Idk how I can use that to find the critical points
The way I see it:
- I need to represent the derivative where I can disregard w.
- I need to find all critical points for the function.
- I need to reject critical points outside of the restricted domain
- I need to determine absolute maximum and minimum for the closed interval.
- I need to evaluate the function at max and min to answer with the max and min velocities.
Is anyone able to help with 1?
I'm stuck at how to get to the critical points, I feel pretty confident with finding critical points with only 1 variable, differentiating trig functions generally, finding absolute max and min for an interval.
doesn't that give me the same issue but now I have dw/dθ instead of dw/dt?
implicit differentiation is messing me up
Yes just the trig thing you play with
Then find critical points at usual you will have infinite solns for theta choose between the given range
so I got da/dθ=-(w^2)(sinx+sin2x)
then critical points of 0, pi, 2pi/3, 4pi/3, 2pi
since crit points include the interval bounds then I would just solve for a at each point, then determine max and min?
assuming my derivative and crit points are correct
Yes now these are the points of maxima or minima check it by plugging in the real equation

$-x(x-3)-2(x-3)=(x-3)(-x-2)$
setting $(x-3)(-x-2)=0$ gives us the roots of where it touches x-axis
