Just plug in a random number into h(x)

#

You can chooose as many points as you want

stuck gazelle
#

nvm its just something stupid with mathxl I just go up one and right one

#

for some reason it keeps marking it wrong if I dont randomly guess what it wants me to put

cosmic steppe
#

Well that's not always the case. That only works because the leading coefficient is 1

polar atlas
#

Given I have v and phi(N) how would I calculate s?

crystal raptor
#

Hope that v and φ(N) are comprime so that v has an inverse that you can find with euclids algorithm

polar atlas
#

so do I just do gcd(v,phi(N)) using euclids algo?

crystal raptor
#

Yeah and then if gcd is 1, run it back to bezout

polar atlas
#

whats bezout?

crystal raptor
#

Bezouts lemma says you can always find λ,μ such that λa+μb = gcd(a,b)

polar atlas
#

oh we never learned that

crystal raptor
#

Okay well if you have other ways to calculate modular inverses then do those

polar atlas
#

what does extended euclid algo do?

cosmic steppe
#

Do you know what the vector field is

#

I would start by identifying the vector field and seeing if it's conservative

#

Have you been dealing with 2D or 3D vector fields?

#

Alright so you've been dealing with rotary and not curl

#

Identify the field from the path integral

#

Yup but the example above is a 3D vector field

#

Yup

#

Now I'd start by finding rot(<x,0>)

#

well I wouldn't even parametrize the curve

#

Like curl but for 2D

#

Uh

#

If $F = \vecb{A,B}$ then $\text{rot}(F) = \pdv{B}{x} - \pdv{A}{y}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

cosmic steppe
#

Yup so that tells you that the field is conservative and you can apply the gradient theorem

#

So now you need to find a function, f(x,y) such that the gradient of f is <x,0>

#

Yup

#

The information above tells you the path goes from (0,0) to (3,27) right

#

Hm

is the expression $$ [(x+10)(x+6)-60]0.25= 27$$

wraith daggerBOT

i made this exression and solve it but it was incorrect

rain vine
#

yeah I get it the expression suppose like this

cosmic spindle
#

check if the total area is the first part of ur expression

rain vine
#

$$ [(2x+10)(2x+6)-60] * 0.25 = 27$$

cosmic spindle
#

yea

wraith daggerBOT
cosmic spindle
#

thats right i think

rain vine
#

I also tried other way but it way off can u tell what long there

cosmic spindle
#

?

rain vine
#

bascially i find the difference of big volume - small volume = 27

#

$$ (2x+10)(2x+6)0.25 - 1060.25 = 27 $$

wraith daggerBOT
rain vine
#

what's wrong with this?

those 2 are the same

round nimbus
#

I was going through my notes, and I was practicing to rotate this conics.

However, I got confused when I started plugging it into desmos. xy = 1 shows a hyperbola with a transverse x axis rotated 45 degrees, and the solution is a hyperbola with a transverse x axis.

If you rotate xy = 1 45 degrees, shouldn't the final be a hyperbola with a transverse x axis?

For all x?

meager jungle

the roots are pretty hard to find

dull oxide

But you found the derivative, yeah?

meager jungle
#

yes

tame wraith
#

@meager jungle oh right

#

Just use iteration

#

Specifically the newton raphson method

#

For the derivative

meager jungle

i do not know what that is

orchid anchor
#

I can't get the surface area

cedar kilnBOT
royal loom
#

Have you found the area of the sides?

orchid anchor
#

17 and 17

royal loom
#

There are more than 2 sides.

orchid anchor
#

you mean area of the base?

royal loom
#

I mean the area of all of the sides

#

as that would give you the surface area

orchid anchor
#

I found area of the base

#

and that's it

royal loom
#

What is stopping you from finding the area of the rest?

orchid anchor
#

idk how to

royal loom
#

Do you know how to find the area of a rectangle?

orchid anchor
#

base x height?

royal loom
#

Yes

#

and what about the area of a triangle?

orchid anchor
#

850

#

well that triangle is apart of the base

#

22 x 50

#

/2

#

you mean that?

royal loom
# orchid anchor 850

this is meaningless to me, you have to be more specific. Say, the area of ( ) is 850, because .....

#

if you want help

orchid anchor
#

850 is rectangle area, 550 is the whole triangle area

#

and 616 is the area of the base

cursive ferry
#

can anyone help me about this questio“Find a special solution to a differential equation y''+y=e^x+cosx

royal loom
#

there are more than 1 rectangles on the shape, and more than 1 triangles

royal loom
#

@orchid anchor these are the areas you need to find

#

Also, the side opposite the slanted side

#

So, note that the black and red areas are repeated on the backside

#

so whatever they are, double them

orchid anchor
#

22 x 17, 17 x 50, 22 x 50/2, 22 x 22/2

that?

this is the last question

#

I'm fried

royal loom
#

Sorry but that doesn't mean you should just paste your question into here with really no effort on your part to describe what you need help with or what you are trying

#

I'm willing to help, I'm just not going to baby you through it either

orchid anchor
#

I got 3182

#

it was wrong

royal loom
#

If you would show me your work I could try to tell you what went wrong

#

(just pasting random numbers in the chat doesn't count as showing your work)

orchid anchor
#

how do you want me to show my work

royal loom
#

Did you do it on paper?

orchid anchor
#

748 for the black

#

1232 after we add in the red

royal loom
orchid anchor
#

1782 after we add the yellow

royal loom
orchid anchor
#

I just got 2632

#

how was it different

#

I dont get it

#

its still wrong

royal loom
orchid anchor
#

50 x 22/2

royal loom
#

22/2 is not the length of that diagonal side

orchid anchor
#

50 x 22

#

and then divide by 2

royal loom
#

that's not right

#

the yellow side is a rectangle

orchid anchor
#

what do I have to type in?

royal loom
#

find the length of it's base, (50)

#

multiply by the length of it's height

#

which is the diagonal

#

which you have to find

orchid anchor
#

ok I got 2787.63

royal loom
#

multiply that by 50 to get the area of the yellow side

orchid anchor
#

I did

#

I got to 2787.63

#

what's next?

#

or is that wrong

royal loom
#

find the area of all the sides, and add them up. That will give you the surface area.

orchid anchor
#

is 2787.63 right?

royal loom
#

no clue

#

but, you're more than capable of finding the surface area. Just find the areas of all the sides and add them up

#

if you get it wrong, then double check that you found the areas correctly

#

As I said above, I'd be happy to help but you have some opposition to explaining/thoroughly showing your work. So I can't check for you

orchid anchor
#

From here I need to add yellow and blue right?

royal loom
#

As I said above, find the area of all the sides and add them up

orchid anchor
#

I did

#

and I got it wromng

royal loom
#

then you either didn't find all of the sides, or you found the area of some of them incorrectly

#

if you'd organize your work on paper it'd be easy for you to see what is going wrong

#

or easy for me

orchid anchor
#

can you just please do it

#

I have tried everything

#

olive helm
#

Kind of a shot in the dark, but how the heck do I even start a proof like this?

olive helm
#

We've touched a little on special divisibility rules; For example, numbers take a certain form when they are divisible by 101 or 7 or 3 or etc.

#

I have a feeling I'm supposed to use the fact that e is the modular mult. inverse of 10 mod n, but I'm not sure how... (Does that somehow guarantee that n' will be divisible by d?)

#

Gonna step away to work on other problems for a bit, please ping me if you respond!

finite raven
#

What is multiplicative inverse?

#

Like e*10 = 1 mod (d)?

#

If then you can do $10 n' = n-a_0 +10e a_0 \implies 10 n' \equiv n-a_0 +10e a_0\mod d \implies 10 n' \equiv n-a_0 +a_0 \equiv n \equiv 0 \mod d$

Since $\text{gcd}(10,d) = 1$, we have $n' \equiv 0 \mod( d)$

#

@olive helm seems correct to you?

#

Wait, I have to go back as well (d |n'->d |n)

#

(d |n'->d |n) is easy

crude valley
#

You replied to my question

#

I don't think either answer you suggested describes what the picture looks like to me

#

This is clearly not a translation.

#

If the axis of rotation lied inside the plane the rotation would happen in space - i.e. it would "leave the plane"

#

To me the picture looks like

#

"Rotation about an axis orthogonal to the plane that passes through a point inside of the circle" (and based on how you drew the arrows i'd say it's pretty close to the center)

Although i find it more pretty to have an extra space behind the element symbol

crimson sedge
#

im trying to write on what intervals function has negative/positive values by quantifiires and i dunno if this is correct

dull oxide
#

well that intersection will result in the empty set

#

Did you mean union?

#

(0,3) or (4, 8)?

crimson sedge
#

i saw that you cannot use the union in indicating intervals in which function has positive/negative values and the intervals just being listed after a comma so i dont know what to use

cedar kilnBOT
#

@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?

crimson sedge
dull oxide
#

I see. Because each interval is a separate instance of when f is increasing

#

Taking union makes it all one set and it may not qualify as increasing in that whole single instance

#

Read the top answer

crimson sedge
#

yes yes so how can i represent those using quantifires?

mystic wren
#

Can someone guide me through this step by step?

mystic wren
#

Evaluating the integral

rain drift
#

ok so this might be a little bit nasty lol but I think I see a way to do it

#

what do you think the first thing we should try is?

mystic wren
#

trig substitution?

rain drift
#

not quite let's hold off on that

#

although yes that would my first through too

#

but there's something unique about this

#

hint: what is the deriviative of sqrt(x^2-9)?

mystic wren
#

I got this

rain drift
#

yep perfect!

#

so how about this

#

what if we did u-sub and let u = sqrt(x^2 - 9)?

#

Like

#

Let $u = \sqrt{x^2 - 9}$. Then $du = \frac{1}{2}\frac{2x}{\sqrt{x^2 - 9}}dx = \frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2 - 9}}dx$.
$\\$ Then we see that$dx = \frac{\sqrt{x^2 - 9}}{x}dx$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

hmmm

#

wait

#

lol

#

oh yes okay that'll work

#

We can also see that since $u = \sqrt{x^2 - 9}$, then $u^2 = x^2 - 9$ which means $u^2 + 9 = x^2$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

wow this worked out great

#

I'm guessing not but are you seeing how this'll work?

rain drift
#

yeah you're right thank you

stable edge
#

at thr enf

rain drift
#

see? we double check each other lmao

mystic wren
rain drift
#

yeah of course

#

ok so let's start over

#

I'll number my steps up to that point

#

bear with me as I write this all out

mystic wren
#

Wait I’m really sorry, I just saw that I must use trig sub in my work in order to get credit 😭

#

But I would still like to see the other method if it’s alright

#

Since you’re already typing it too

#

If not it’s ok

rain drift
#

ooooh

#

no then I wont' bother lol

#

no worries

#

it was a cool way to solve it but let's use trig sub since that's your area of focus

mystic wren
#

Okay!

#

I’m sorry, thanks sm

rain drift
#

no worries

#

ok so yes trig sub

#

which trig method will we use for $\sqrt{x^2 - a^2}$?

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

mystic wren
#

a sec

rain drift
#

bingo

#

so we'll say let x = 3sec(theta)

#

do then what will dx be?

mystic wren
#

dx = 3sec (theta) tan(theta)

rain drift
#

bingo!

#

so we have the following now: $\\-10 \int \frac{\sqrt{(3sec(\theta))^2 - 9}}{(3sec(\theta))^3}3sec(\theta)tan(\theta)d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

you agree so far?

mystic wren
#

Yes

rain drift
#

okay cool

#

so what will the denominator equal?

mystic wren
#

3sec^2(theta)?

rain drift
#

not quite. Remember that $(ab)^3 = a^3b^3$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

mystic wren
#

Oh so 27sec^3(theta)?

rain drift
#

bingo!

#

so what about inside the square root function

#

what should we do there?

mystic wren
#

First square the 3sec(theta) so we get 9sec^2(theta) -9

rain drift
#

bingo!

#

there's something we can factor out of that

mystic wren
#

The 9 to get sec^2 - 1

rain drift
#

bingo

#

and what's the trig identity associated with that?

mystic wren
#

Tan^2

rain drift
#

I'm so proud of you

#

so we have sqrt(9tan^2)

#

which means we can get rid of that sqrt

#

so now we're left with this (which we'll clean up in a sec)

#

$\-10 \int \frac{3tan(\theta)}{27sec^3(\theta)}3sec(\theta)tan(\theta)d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

there's quite a lot we can combine and eliminate here

#

care to take a crack at it? ^_^

mystic wren
#

Is it tan^2(theta)/3sec^2(theta)

#

?

rain drift
#

yep exactly

#

so we can pull out that constant and we're left with

#

$\frac{-10}{3}\int \frac{tan^2(\theta)}{sec^2(\theta)}d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

now what does sec^2 equal?

mystic wren
#

1 + tan^2

#

?

rain drift
#

sorry to be more clear. what is sec relation to cos?

mystic wren
#

1/cos?

rain drift
#

bingo

#

so sec^2 is the same thing as 1/cos^2

#

and when you have 1/(anything) in the denominator, you can move that (anything) to the numerator

#

so then we have $\frac{-10}{3} \int tan^2(\theta)cos^2(\theta)d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

now same question for tan

#

what's another way to write tan?

mystic wren
#

Sin/cos?

rain drift
#

bingo

#

so tan^2 = sin^2/cos^2

#

see what happens?

mystic wren
#

The cos^2 cancels out

rain drift
#

yep!

#

so after ALL of that

#

we're left with $\frac{-10}{3} \int sin^2(\theta) d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

wow that was nasty. I don't like trig subs lol

#

there's a sub you can do as well now with sin^2. It's not 1 - cos^2.

#

rather it's sin^2 = 1/2 * (1 - cos(2theta))

#

have you ever seen that?

mystic wren
#

Ohh ye

rain drift
#

so we do that and we're left with

#

$-\frac{10}{3} \int \frac{1}{2}(1 - cos(2\theta)d\theta = -\frac{5}{3} \int 1 - cos(2\theta)d\theta$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

now just integrate that real quick

mystic wren
#

Is it this?

rain drift
#

yep exactly

#

don't forget your + C 🙂

#

now one last step is to convert everything from theta back to terms of x

#

drawing a triangle here will be super helpful

mystic wren
#

Okay I’ll try

rain drift
#

sounds good I'll be on standby

mystic wren
#

How do you convert the first theta?

#

I recall it has something to do with arcsin or one of them

rain drift
#

so x = 3sec(theta). We can use the arcsec

#

but if your teacher doesn't like that then convert with: $arcsec(x) = arccos(\frac{1}{x})$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

rain drift
#

so solve for theta in x = 3sec(x) then we can convert by taking the arcsec of each side

mystic wren
#

How would you solve this?

#

I’m a little stuck on this part

rain drift
#

there's an identity there

#

what does sin(2x) equal?

#

once you see it that's where the drawn triangle will come into play

mystic wren
#

I’m not sure

rain drift
#

2sin(x)cos(x)

crimson obsidian
#

$$\sin{2x}=2\sin{x}\cos{x}$$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Calamity

mystic wren
#

I see

rain drift
#

so then all in all we have: $-\frac{5}{3}(\theta - sin(\theta)cos(\theta))$

wraith daggerBOT
#

MellowDramaLlama

mystic wren
#

Ok I think I got it

rain drift
#

kk sounds good

#

I got the final answer if you want to double check with me when you are done 🙂

mystic wren
#

This is what I got

rain drift
#

,rotate

wraith daggerBOT
rain drift
#

looks good to me!

#

if you wanted to change arcsec to arccos, the equivalent would be arccos(3/x)

#

but otherwise it all looks great!

mystic wren
#

Alright, thank you so much!

dense kelp
#

Hi, could I get some help on an easy statistics question?

rain drift
#

sure feel free to post the question and let us know what you're stuck on

#

!status

cedar kilnBOT
#
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
dense kelp
#

1

#

I've been struggling with this topic due to my professor having a strong accent

rain drift
#

do you have to do this by hand or can you use like excel?

dense kelp
#

I could use an excel

rain drift
#

oh okay

#

yeah there's a function for that

#

so I would make a table for your points, like so

dense kelp
#

Yeah that seems about right

rain drift
#

so you can either just use a built in function (I'm forgetting what it is right now)

#

or you could use the following formula

dense kelp
#

I got infinite attempts and this is what shows up

rain drift
#

ah okay yeah

#

so then I would just make cells for each of the following

#

sorry one moment

dense kelp
#

You're good, thanks a lot for the help

#

I wouldn't have been able to get it on my own

rain drift
#

ok so normally I would not recommend opening any files on discord on here lol

#

but here's the excel file

#

the cells should have each formula

#

I gotta head to dinner so hopefully it'll make sense

#

but you'll notice that the trend line that was automatically created in the graph matches the b_1 and b_0 cells 🙂

#

kk best of luck!

dense kelp
#

Thank you

#

have a good dinner 👍

crimson sedge
#

this is a simple question but when exactly do I know when i should be using radiants vs degrees

crimson sedge
#

do i just use radiants the moment im dealing with sin/cos and other trigonometric functions

smoky idol
#

use radians because they're cooler ;)

opal laurel
smoky idol
#

there's no real moment to use them, I just think they're easier to work with. You won't see many degrees in trig and calculus though, so getting used to them is a good thing

crimson sedge
#

alr but like

#

if i'm doing a math problem

#

how do i know which one to use

opal laurel
#

if there is pi in the problem use radians

#

you could kind of like see it in that

#

radians is the basic language of degrees for computers, so they are more common on accounting apps such as excel, google sheets, etc

#

But i gues you could just use degrees unless it asks you for radians?

smoky idol
crimson sedge
#

alr in this case the question had a pi

#

this was the start of the question

#

so if its evident like this i assume its safe to say that the teacher expects an answer in radiants

opal laurel
#

ye, since the restriction is in pi

#

which is 90 to 180

crimson sedge
#

alr then thanks a lot

fringe mauve
#

six problems (numbered 1 to 6) are set for a test. Students can score a 0,1,2 or 3 marks for the problem. Find the number of ways a total of 15marks can be scored for the six problems

fringe mauve
#

idk where to start

wraith daggerBOT
fringe mauve
#

yeah

radiant topaz
#

any combinatorics method that you know to tackle this?

fringe mauve
#

im not sure how to use combinatorics here

#

what am i choosing

radiant topaz
#

In a way you can think that there are atleast three questions where you get 3 marks

fringe mauve
#

y

#

oh

radiant topaz
#

if you get 2 marks for all question then you get total marks of 12 which is less than 15

fringe mauve
#

cause thats the minimum

radiant topaz
fringe mauve
#

so three questions with three marks are assumed pretty much

#

so for that

#

is it?

#

6C3

radiant topaz
#

yes

fringe mauve
#

for which questions get three marks

radiant topaz
#

but think about more cases

#

case 1 : 3 questions get 3 marks

#

case 2 : 4 questions get 3 marks

#

case 3 : 5 questions get 3 marks

fringe mauve
#

i see

#

what about the other ones

#

where some get 2

#

and others get 1

radiant topaz
#

what other?

fringe mauve
#

and they add up

radiant topaz
fringe mauve
#

why not?

radiant topaz
#

we know we want atleast 3 three marks answers, so you can find how to use 0,1,2 when there are 4 questions that give three marks

fringe mauve
#

ohhhh

radiant topaz
#

we decide number of three marks questions and then we find how many 0,1,2 marks questions fix in remaining sum

#

when there are three 3's

#

they add to 9

#

so remaining sum is 15-9 = 6

#

we have to get three numbers from the set of {0,1,2} to get sum of 6

#

which happens only when all three of them are equal to 2

#

so our case gives us 3+3+3+2+2+2=15 which can be arranged in 6C3 ways

fringe mauve
#

wait

#

why just 6C3

radiant topaz
fringe mauve
#

dont u need to choose which questions get 2 marks

fringe mauve
#

so it would be 6C3*6C3

#

1 for the three marks

#

and 1 for the 2 markers

radiant topaz
#

that's what is done in 6C3 ways

radiant topaz
fringe mauve
#

u also need to decide which questions get 3 marks

#

dont u

radiant topaz
#

which is just 6C3

fringe mauve
#

ohhhhhhh

#

ok ok

#

that meks sense

#

so the 6C3

#

is to decide which questions get 3 marks

#

then there are 3 qs left

#

out of those 3

#

we decide which questions get 2 marks which is 3C3

#

which is just 1

radiant topaz
#

okay

fringe mauve
#

so for the other cases

#

for the 4 questions

#

with 3 marks

#

its 6C4 to decide which questions get the three marks

#

3+3+3+3+2+1=15

fringe mauve
#

oh

radiant topaz
#

yes

#

to decide just the 3 marked questions

fringe mauve
#

then i need to decide qhich questions get the 2 marks and 1 mark

#

is that just 2C1 * 2C1

#

uhm so no?

#

so i have 2 questions from which 1 gets 2 marks and the other gets 1 mark

#

lets start with just the two marks

#

i dont understand

#

isnt it just 2C1 to see which gets 2 marks

#

and then 1C1 for the last question which gets 1 makr

#

is that yes?

#

cool col

#

finally

#

for the case 3

#

is 6C5 to see which questions get 3 marks

#

and then 1C1 for the last question qhich gets 0

#

kk

#

thanks then

crimson sedge
#

Help me

cedar kilnBOT
crimson sedge
#

OK

#

I need help

tropic oxide
crimson sedge
#

Alright

#

So

#

What's the probability that 6 dice will roll out for a total of 6 points?

craggy oriole
#

There's only one combination of 6 rolls totaling 6 (each one rolls a 1), what's the total number of outcomes?

rain drift
#

I feel like this problem was solved/requested earlier.

The only way to get a total of 6 points from 6 die is to roll 6 1's

#

the probability of rolling a 1 is 1/6 with a fair die

#

in order to do that 6 times you would do (1/6)^6

crimson sedge
#

oh

#

Oh. Ok so like .214337?

tropic oxide
#

hold on

#

as in, you are rolling 6 standard six-sided dice and looking at the total, and you wish to know the probability that this total also equals 6

#

is that what you're saying?

crimson sedge
#

Yes

tropic oxide
crimson sedge
#

Oh, then how did I get that?

#

Obviously I'm solving wrong, but in what way

cerulean vigil
#

hello

crimson sedge
#

Hi?

craggy oriole
#

Should be 1/6^6

rain drift
#

(1/6)^6 = 0.00002143347

#

it's extremely unlikely you'd get that

crimson sedge
#

oh

rain drift
#

hence why the probability is so small.

crimson sedge
#

Oh that makes sense

craggy oriole
#

Only 4 orders of magnitude off lol

crimson sedge
#

Lol

#

my name says it all

rain drift
#

in other words, the chance of rolling 6 1's from 6 die is 0.002143347 %.

#

Fun fact, according to a Google search, the probability of being struck by lightning is 1/15300, which is 0.00006535947

#

in other words, you have a better chance of being struck by lightning than rolling that on the dice lol

crimson sedge
#

Why would I need to kno-

#

struck by lightning

rain drift
crimson sedge
#

OK in all seriousness, ty

#

I understand now

#

Good bye!

#

I need help with maths
The question is
**
If the geometric mean of (3x+1)/2x and (2x+2)/3x is sqrt(195)/15, find the positive value of x.

**The answer in book is
Value of x is 4.

But I can't solve it.
Please help

crimson sedge
#

Hi

#

I can help today

tranquil citrus
#

please help

crimson sedge
#

Don't worries

#

It is handy to use log with base 2 here, so 2 = 2 1 and 8 = 2 3. The arithmetic mean of the exponents (1 and 3) is 2, so the geometric mean is 2 2 = 4. This can be verified by our geometric average

#

Factor 2x^2-3x+1. 2x2 − 3x + 1 2 x 2 - 3 x + 1. For a polynomial of the form ax2 +bx+ c a x 2 + b x + c, rewrite the middle term as a sum of two terms whose product is a⋅c = 2⋅1 = 2 a ⋅ c = 2 ⋅ 1 = 2

#

Understand..?

tranquil citrus

ah yes

#

thanks

can i close it now?

tired inlet
#

hey guys could someone help me out with solving quadratics by completing the square

tired inlet
#

2x^2 + 11x + 12 = 0

#

if I divide everything by 2 I get x^2 +11x/2 + 6

violet flume
#

youre not allowed to divide everything by 2

#

its an expression, right?

tired inlet
#

but why can't I divide everything by 2?

violet flume
#

because you change the expression

#

like if you just have the number 6 or something

#

you cant divide that by 2

#

no different here

tired inlet
#

but I mean the equation is equivalent right?

violet flume
#

its not an equation

#

and no

#

you need to factor not divide

tired inlet
#

cause in this video they do it

violet flume
#

you can divide both sides of an equation by 2

#

you cant just divide some random expression by 2

#

starting by setting it equal to 0 thonk

tired inlet
#

oh I see

violet flume
#

just factor

#

dont divide

tired inlet
#

yeah I meant to do that

#

so basically x^2 +11x/2 + 6 = 0

#

(x+11/4)^2 - 121/16 + 6 = 0

#

(x+11/4)^2 = -217/16 = 0

violet flume
#

this video is giving you a crutch thats not helpful

tired inlet
#

is this correct?

violet flume
#

the first step is to factor

tired inlet
#

but I mean if I don't want to factor

violet flume
#

$2x^2+11x+12 = 2(x^2+\frac{11}{2}x+6)$

tired inlet
#

since It is a non-monic quadratic

wraith daggerBOT
#

jan Niku

tired inlet
#

but I mean where does the 5 in the first term go in the video?

violet flume
#

maybe i dont understand

#

are you looking for roots?

tired inlet
#

yeah

violet flume
#

oh flonshed

#

dont mind me

#

okay lets start back here

#

$2x^2+11x+12=0$

wraith daggerBOT
#

jan Niku

violet flume
#

youre saying divide by 2, okay

#

$x^2+\frac{11}{2}x+6=0$

wraith daggerBOT

usual technique is to totally isolate the terms with the x

#

$x^2+\frac{11}{2}x = -6$

wraith daggerBOT
#

jan Niku

violet flume
#

then you take half the coef attached to x, square it, and add it to both sides

#

$x^2 + \frac{11}{2}x + \frac{121}{16} = -6 + \frac{121}{16}$

#

jan Niku

tired inlet
#

yeah

violet flume
#

oh, you got the same thing happy

#

thanks for waiting for me to catch up haha

#

alright, so all you have to do is take the root and move the constant over

#

$x = \pm \sqrt{-6+\frac{121}{16} } - \frac{11}{4}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

jan Niku

tired inlet
#

wait

tired inlet
#

I would add 217/16 to both sides correct?

violet flume
#

,calc -6 + 121/16

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

1.5625
violet flume
#

you wanna isolate x

tired inlet
#

hmm well it seems we are using different methods of completing the square

tired inlet
violet flume
#

hmm? they do the same thing in the video

#

you end up with a perfect square on one side, and a number on the other

#

then you take the root, and move the coefficient

tired inlet
#

do you mind starting again?

violet flume
#

you feel good up to here?

tired inlet
#

well this is where I feel good up to: (x + 11/4)^2 - 121/16 + 6 = 0

violet flume
#

ah sure

#

okay so first isolate the perfect square

tired inlet
#

so basically I can simplify to get (x+11/4)^2 - 217/16 = 0

violet flume
#

okay

tired inlet
#

then add 217/16 to both sides of the equation

#

correct?

violet flume
#

sure

tired inlet
#

then take the square root of both sides

violet flume
#

yup

tired inlet
#

then subtract 11/4 from both sides of the equation

violet flume
#

yes

tired inlet
#

so x = +/-sqrt(217/16) - 11/4

#

but here is where I have the problem

tired inlet
violet flume
#

,w 2x^2+11x+12=0

wraith daggerBOT
violet flume
#

👀

tired inlet
#

do you see what I mean

violet flume
#

ah, youve added incorrectly

violet flume
#

121/16 + 6 = 121/16 + 96/16

#

,calc 121+96

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

217
violet flume
#

sorry, its negative

#

-121/16 + 6 = -121/16 + 96/16

#

you lost the negative somewhere

violet flume
#

but re-add those numbers

#

dont forget its negative: -121/16

tired inlet
#

Oh true so -25/16

violet flume
#

yea

#

which simplifies under the root

tired inlet
#

ok so x = -4, x = -3/2

violet flume
tired inlet
#

thanks for helping out

violet flume
#

no problem

Put a number in x

#

But not 1,-1,-2

ionic thistle
glossy shoal
#

Yes

tropic oxide
glossy shoal
#

Why

brittle axle
#

Sounds like hella brute forcing

#

Looks like you can try expanding the left hand side, then likewise expanding the right hand side and comparing coefficients for the terms

ionic thistle
brittle axle
#

Rewrite the first term as (x^2 + 3x)*(x^2 +3x) and distribute that

#

Then add the result from the second term

#

It should be x^4 + 2*3*x^3 + 9x^2

#

Then add the second term when you distribhte the -2 throughout

#

Distribute right side afterwards(it will get nasty)

At first I used the formula sqrt(A² + B² + 2ABCosθ), but im pretty sure that's not how it's supposed to be solved. I don't understand what "due east" and "due 60° north of west" mean.

tropic oxide
#

do you know what a compass looks like

wind hearth
#

ye

#

kind of

#

wait do we have to visualise a compass to find theta?

pulsar fox
#

Its a pretty easy question

tropic oxide
#

but it might help if you do.

#

when something is facing exactly along one of the four principal compass points, we say it is facing "due north", "due south" etc.

pulsar fox
#

@tropic oxide Is the answer ||5 units||

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

tropic oxide
#

also i have not calculated the answer so i can't tell anyway

pulsar fox
pulsar fox
wind hearth
#

The answer is said to be sqrt(13) in the answer key

tropic oxide
wind hearth
#

ah ok

pulsar fox
wind hearth
#

i think i can solve this myself now that i understand whats was meant by 60 ° north of west

#

thanks for da help

you should go to a channel in the Math help (AVAILABLE) category and post your question there.
NOT reopen somebody else's channel like you did.

orchid oriole
#

I keep getting these type of questions wrong, can someone help me

vague rapids
#

and same for cos and tan

orchid oriole
#

Yes

#

Do I juts subtract the number from 90?

vague rapids
#

no

#

there are different identities

#

sin(90+x) is cosx due to the fact that sin is positive in 2nd quadrant

sacred grail
#

surely you'd go for 180-... for these

orchid oriole
#

Oh

#

What should I do

vague rapids
#

These should be enough

#

oh wait

sacred grail
#

it's called like the reference angle or something

#

find the reference angle for 140 in the first quadrant

vague rapids
#

for tan just divide them

orchid oriole
#

The answer they got was sin40

sacred grail
#

yeah so 40 is the reference angle for 140

#

because 180 - 140 = 40

orchid oriole
#

But for tan they got tan-90

sacred grail
#

-90?

orchid oriole
#

Yes

sacred grail
#

that is not the same as tan(140)

orchid oriole
#

And for cos it was cos-40

sacred grail
#

are you sure you're transcribing these correctly

#

,w cos(140) = cos(-40)

sacred grail
#

these are not equal

orchid oriole
#

Idk but that’s what they got for question 2

#

Diagnostic test

sacred grail
#

-cos(40) is not the same as cos(-40)

orchid oriole
#

How should I do it

sacred grail
#

are you familiar with the term reference angle

orchid oriole
#

No

sacred grail
#

is there another term that is used by your book

orchid oriole
#

I don’t think so, explain it, I’ll learn it ur way

livid hound
#

related acute angle is the alternate name

orchid oriole
#

No I haven’t learn it

sacred grail
#

you might want to look through your book to find where this is covered

orchid oriole
#

Let me show u how they taught it to me

sacred grail
sacred grail
#

you want to rewrite $\sin({\c b 140\degrees})$ as $\sin({\c b 180\degrees - \theta})$

wraith daggerBOT
orchid oriole
#

Ok

#

So 180-140

sacred grail
#

what is the value of θ?

orchid oriole
#

40

sacred grail
#

yes

#

so sin(140) = ?

orchid oriole
#

-40

#

Do I subtract from 180 regardless if it asks for a acute or obtuse

sacred grail
#

no the point of rewriting 140 as 180 - 40 is so that you can apply this equation

#

because now with θ=40, you have an acute angle

orchid oriole
#

I’m lost again, I thought doing 180-140 was the only step

sacred grail
#
\begin{align*}
  \sin({\c b 180\degrees - {\c r \theta}}) & = \sin({\c r \theta}) \\
  \sin({\c b 180\degrees - {\c r 40\degrees}}) & = \sin({\c r 40\degrees})
\end{align*}
wraith daggerBOT
sacred grail
#

does this make sense?

#

here we are using the value $\c r \theta = 40\degrees$

wraith daggerBOT
orchid oriole
#

Ohh

#

Yes I understand now

sacred grail
#

but because 140 = 180 - 40, we now also know that sin(140) = sin(40)

orchid oriole
#

Ahh alrr
