Can someone help me understand a few algebra questions? I'm reviewing for a big exam tomorrow and I forgot a lot from Algebra
what are you confused about?
Everything, I have no idea what to do
Sadly no 💀
it means how steep a line is
you calculate by taking the change in y divided by the change in x between two points on a line
so like in the first problem, you can find the slope by taking two points on the line, finding the height difference and width difference between them, and slope = height divided by width
thats slope
negatives matter by the way
were you not taught this?
I learned it in 8th grade and now I'm taking an exam in 11th grade to graduate
On a weeks notice
If I don't pass I won't be able to grad next year
Remember the formula y=mx+c when finding the intercept
As @fiery whale said you can quickly relearn them online. A simple Google search would be enough
Alright, thank you
For the equation of the line with two points you find the slope first, then the intercept using the two given points. All the best tomorrow
It's pretty easy stuff, you can reach out if you need more help
Good to know, thanks

Why does the example say to use the 20 degree angle when calculating the rectangular components but then in the answers for another similar question they want me to use the 60 degree angle instead of the 30 degree one

Hey
Can someone help me with my algebra, completing the square and I’m not good at this at all so can you tell me it simply please
O
mate wrong channel
Oop
dont bomb other peoples channels
I went to algerbra and gem and it bought me here Srry
meanwhile, just visualise a barrel
since diameter of barrel = diameter of lid
just get radius of lid
and you have your answer via simple pi * r^2
I need the formula to get r
Radius is half the diameter
So 11.5
rip_uwu
Question says take 3.14 as value for pi
Yes that's the answer I got
Ok thanks
Also I may need help with the next one so don’t close it yet
Ok so I learned some of this in class
B4 bell rung
8.7 is the diameter
it's half a circle, so use the formula for area of circle and divide by 2
Area of circle is pi r^2. Area of semicircle would be half that
And you said the radius would be d/2
Yes
indeed, the radius is half the diameter, by definition
So I get 4.35
As the radius
Yea
So square that and multiply what you get by 3.14 to find area of circle
Wait I'll check
Yes that's area of circle
What did you get as your final answer
No problem

can someon explain how to integrate dx/xsqrt(lnx)
$\int\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{x\sqrt{\ln(x)}}$?
substitution
Stumpman
,rccw
i split it up so when i did u sub for lnx it would cancel out the dx and 1/x
so i was left with 1/sqrt(lnx) du
well after you perform the change of variables, everything should be in terms of u
yes
ok so then i do the power rule thing for it and lemme send my work rq
What should I do instead of this?

How do I figure this out
Can you multiply together a 2x2 and a 4x4 matrix?
when multiplying an nxm matrix and an axb matrix, 'm' and 'a' must be the same number and the resulting matrix will have the dimensions nxb.
do you know how to do the transpose of a matrix
Yes
so you essentially apply the same thing to part 2
but B is now its transpose
so B^T would be bxa instead of axb
AB is a 3xb matrix because 3x5 * axb gives you a resulting matrix of dimensions 3xb
correct
yayy thanks man

Draw a triangle
find the leg lengths of those triangles
use trig to figure out the angle of a
you know what sin cos and tan do right?
pick one to solve your problem
wait but how do i find how long the legs r
by drawing a triangle
the sideways one?
the hypotenuse
yes
Ok ty
Pythagorean theorem or distance formula for this. (but you already figured it out)
ok so sin cos and tan are trig right
do you not know what they are?
mmm kinda
i mean
i did it in class
i just kind of forgot
so im gonna take that as a yes i think
ok this is too hard im just gonna do a different question
thanks anyways
don't
go relearn trig
stop doing problems
mmmm i might
i gotta do a bunch of problems by an hour soooooo ill go back to this one

without directly evaluating, prove that :
without evaluating?
i don't know if there is a property for this problem
like without a method
then to get detriminate
They can't mean don't do any algebra?
its would be 3d-3d
they mean use some equivalent statement
First row, first col:
Det(matrix) = (b+c)(b-c) = b^2 - c^2
Get a row 0
You have to perform row operations and get a zero row
The invertible matrix theorem is a theorem in linear algebra which gives a series of equivalent conditions for an n×n square matrix A to have an inverse. In particular, A is invertible if and only if any (and hence, all) of the following hold: 1. A is row-equivalent to the n×n identity matrix I_n. 2. A has n pivot positions. 3. The equation A...
isn't a row 1 equal to a det= 0?
note 19
No
any negation of any other number is equivalent
@heavy mulch what's the matter bozo
🤨
You can see that R1+R2 = (a+b+c) R3 , so the rows are dependent and hence determinant is 0
i dont understand the relation between note 19 and the problem
@modern rune I can confirm that at least two rows can be transformed to the same thing
Through row operations

Hello, I'm looking for some help with this problem on integration by parts. I understand the first method, but I tried a different method and I don't understand why it doesn't give the same answer. Have I made a mistake somewhere?
Ah, thank you. Let me try it again.

I really need help answering this question. Algebra.
The first equation has a y, the second equation has a y, therefore because they are both equal you can put them together in one equation
This wll give the point of intersections
For example 2 = 1+1 and 2 = 2 - 0... This can be written as 1+1 = 2-0
So in your case you would do, they will interesect when the equations are equal... you would do 3x-3 = -2x + 7
Ahh.. ok ok
Solve for x, it will give you the x - cord then you can easily find the y cord by using either equation
Okay got it thanks

Hi guys need some help with this
Stuck at square 1
@viral tartan Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
well there are a few ideas you can try here
one of them involves picking a value for something like e, and then seeing if you can pick the values for f and d that makes both equations true
and then compute e/f
ofc that's a little bit cheap because you're assuming that these equations uniquely define e/f
but the other way probably involves trying to get rid of the d in the second equation and rearranging to get something like e/f = something
How so?
If i’m being honest, i’m still confused
yeah
Right
okay now, can you cross multiply
(e-f)/2f-e)=1/4
do you know what cross multiplying is i assume you know
I do and i’m cross multiplying the (e-f)/(2f-e) part?
can you tell me what cross multiplying means
Multipling one corner to another?
yeah so do it
My brain is not working please just show it to me
multiply 4 with (e-f) and multiply 1 with (2f-e), they are equal
So it’s (4e-4f)/(2f-e)
4e-4f=2f-e
add e to both sides
5e-4f=2f
add 4f to both sides
5e=6f
divide both sides with f
5e/f=6
divide both sides with 5
e/f=6/5
you struggle a bit at cross multiplying and ratios
i strongly recommend solving more problems about this
Thank you! I get it now
.Thank you! @nocturne flower

My college is hosting a maths competition and this is one of the questions
I went ahead and solved it using pythagoras and other theorems
and in the end got an area of 2 for the smallest, 4 for the one in the middle and 8 for the large one
and that totals to an area of 14units sq
but that is not one of the options
wait nvm root 196 is 14

How can I calculate altitude and vertical velocity using angle and horizontal velocity? (m/s)
Example: Calculating the vertical velocity of an aircraft using the speed and angle values.
draw a right-angled triangle with length of hypothenuse being the speed of the aircraft
the vertical velocity is the height of that triangle/the opposite side of the triangle
^do the above make sense? If it does, are you able to proceed to use trigo to solve for the opposite side?
sorry, I forgot to mention I'm an 8th grader...
I just need the formula
or something like that
vertical velocity = speed x sin θ
I think its extremely important to understand where the above comes from though, which is precisely from drawing out a triangle
alright, thanks. is that all I need to know?
yes and for the horiozntal velocity its speed x cos θ
Closed by @clever bough

✅
hey
is the speed in m/s?
Yes. Because sin and cos do not have units, multiplying by them does not change the units
hey I'm an 8th grader and don't know what sin and cos are.
I just need a way to use this formula in my code and stuff
where is angle in this formula?
angle is θ
okay.
does this make sense?
wait there are two people sorry
now if you do some basic algebra you get this
sin theta is sin(20°)? theta = 20°
This is where the horizontal and vertical components come from
correct
theta is 20 degrees, not 20
thanks for the images
thats kinda important
so i'll use a calculator. am I supposed to do 789m/s x sin(20°) ?
789m/s = horizontal vel
20° = angle
Assuming 789 m/s is H and you are solving for the vertical component, yes
could I add gravity to this calculation or is that another thing?
that's just physics sorry nvm
i'll try to understand this and implement a gravity system because i'm writing code not calculating real scenarios
the pyhsics engine probably will do the work for me
also note that this only works for right triangles
i forgot to draw the little box
cool
have a nice day and i'm sorry i don't know sin and stuff so yeah
haha thanks
i just thought the triangles would help you visualize it better
have a good one as well
yeah thanks for that

Joe sells books. He has them all stacked on one big pile, one on top of the other, mixed up in different ways. He knows that price of each book is p_i. One by one, customers come to him, each of them wants to buy one book, they don't even care which one, because they're in a hurry. Joe has a good eye for people, and for each customer he can tell from a glance
the value of z_i, which indicates how busy the person is. And that's a good thing, because it gives Joe ability to maximize profit.
But Joe doesn't have time to rummage through the whole pile of books, he can offer each customer only one of the top three books.
At the end of the day, when he has sold all the books, Joe wonders if he has offered them as best as he could. Help
help him find out.
Input format
On the first line of the input is the number n (1 ≤ n ≤ 500) - the number of books Joe has and also the number of customers.On the second line is n space-separated numbers p_i (1 ≤ p_i ≤ 1000) - the prices of each book in turn, in the order in which they are stacked on the pile. The book with price p_1 is at the top of the pile, below it is book p_2, and so on.On the third line, there are n space-separated numbers z_i (1 ≤ z_i ≤ 1000) - the desperation of customers in the order in which they came to Joe.
Output format
List one number - the largest possible amount of money Joe could make if he offered customers books optimally. For selling book j to customer i, Joe gets p_j - z_i of the money and each customer he can sell only one of the top three books.
Example input:
4
16 6 2 10
3 8 12 9
Example output:
336
First customer got third book in a row for a total price of 6. To the second before the second book
in the order for the price of 48 (at this point he could also sell the second book, which is now with
third on the kicker at 80, which is not optimal).
The third loser leaves with the first book and the last one is left with the one priced 10, which is already at the top of the pile.
can someone help me how to come up with an optimization function? I have tried to calculate minimum price for last 3 books, but it does not product optimal result

I'm confused what order you condense this logarithm. Also in general what order do you expand a logarithm
a + b - c = (a+b) - c = a + (b - c)
do you go from right to left or from left to right
it doesn't matter
This website said you do
that's not telling you the order
it's telling you what "expanding" means
and what "condensing or compressing" means

Im really confused on how you would solve condense this
Can you send the entire question?
thats it
simplify how? as a single log?
yea
log(e) = 1
dies your book use log with unspecified base as
common log of base 10
or the natural log?
could simplify it further
im pretty sure its the common log of base 10
log(10) = 1

how do you convert 1/11 to base 3 and other bases
@lunar radish Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
Let's consider base 3
1/11 is something like 0.0909090909
Since we are in base 3, you know that the only digits in this base are: 0, 1, and 2
Right?
hi
Hello Hiro!
First, how do we convert base 10 to base 3? Firstly, consider $101_{10}$ to rewrite this as $n_{3}$ we must consider the remainders after it dividing by 3. View the following table:\~\
\begin{tabular}{||c|c||}
\hline
\textbf{Number} & \textbf{Remainder} \
\hline
101 & 2 \
\hline
33 & 0 \
\hline
11 & 2 \
\hline
3 & 0 \
\hline
1 & \verb|NaN|\
\hline
\end{tabular}
To get the number in base 3 we consider the remainders—starting from 1—going up the list, and hence we get $1,0,2,0,2$.\~\
Hence the number is converted into base 3: $101_{10}=10202_{3}$. Now, can you repeat this exercise for $\frac{1}{11}_{10}$?
XxMrFancyu2xX
what is this
converted numbers from base 10 into base 3 
oh okay
Efficient and lovely algorithm!
you love math luna?
i do!
math is a good thing to love
math is awesome
didn't Leibniz make it?
No idea
Can the algorithm be generalized?\~\
Say, converting $n=m_{\beta}$\~\
Note: I am called $r(x)$ the round function which takes any input and floors because im too lazy to type \verb|\floor| every time ;-;\~\
\begin{tabular}{||c|c||}
\hline
\textbf{Number} & \textbf{Remainder} \
\hline
$n$ & $n\mod{\beta}$ \
\hline
$r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)$ & $r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)\mod{\beta}$ \
\hline
$r\left(\frac{r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)}{\beta}\right)$ & $r\left(\frac{r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)}{\beta}\right)\mod{\beta}$ \
\hline
$\ldots$ & $\ldots$ \
\hline
\end{tabular}\~\
$m=\ldots+r\left(\frac{r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)}{\beta}\right)\mod{\beta}+r\left(\frac{n}{\beta}\right)\mod{\beta}+n\mod{\beta}$?

ignore the stuff above
I don’t suppose cancelling cos terms on LHS will get me anywhere
You see RHS is two separate terms and LHS is not
your first step is to separate the fraction
You can start with this and the steps you need will be shorter

How this wrong
sin(3) / (1 - sin(3)) is the decimal
so remember that the convergent series sum starts at n = 0
which means for n to start at 1 we simply just need to subtract the 1st term from the sum to get the answer
?
Thats what I did but its wrong
I also checked my answer by using calculator and it gives my answer
\infty

for this one, the markscheme doesnt use cauchy, but is it possible to go about using cauchy?
Maybe but it's harder to use Cauchy when you only have recursively defined sequences
i found this thing called a contractive sequence which kind of looked similar to this problem
and which uses cauchy
does the above argument work though?
i dont, so this is not contractive, im just trying to make a similar argument to show its cauchy
by chaining together inequalities like that

the notation is super dodgy
that second = sign shouldn't be there
instead you should have a new line
what you've written implies that
2^3/3^3 is equal to 2/3
which is clearly false
to get from
$$k^6 = \frac{2^3}{3^3}$$
to
$$k^2 = \frac23$$

Can someone explain to me why the result of u × (v × w) (cross product of those vectors) lies in the plane determined by v and w? I don't understand it well because I know that the result of (v × w) is perpendicular to the plane determined by v and w, but if we multiply it again by u, why does the result lie in the plane determined by v and w?
you just said it yourself, (v** x w) gives you a vector that is perpendicular to the plane that spans v and w. Hence u x (v x w) will produce a vector that is both perpendicular to u and (v x w). And we know that any vector that is perpendicular to (v x **w) will lie in the space spanned by these two vectors
here's a simple visulisation, the blue vector is the cross product of v and w
and as we can see, any vectors that is perpendicular to the blue vector must also lie on the plane pi
@half quiver Has your question been resolved?
I might be really confused but
the purple one here is perpendicular to v x w and not on the plane of v and w right?..
yes, but that purple one would be impossible to be the cross product of u x (v x w)
or well, a more accurate way of saying would be it wouldnt make much sense to be representing the cross product in that way
sorry for asking so many q's imjust still not sure why purple wouldnt be right
wait a second, im trying to think of a nice example
thank you sm
ok i cant really think of any simple application of a vector triple product right now, but the main catch is that most of the time, triple product will be used in rotational motion, or probably tension problems, and in those problems, say the rotational motion problem, you can actually describe geometrically the centripetal acceleration using triple product. But anyway, the main thing that im saying is, all of these vectors are drawn starting from a particular point in order for them to make sense of. For example, with the centripetal acceleration case, we use the triple product consisting of the angular velocity and the vector position from a point to the particle in observation. both vectors are spanned from the particle, in order to make sense of the product.
so all in all, back to you original question, the purple vector drawn in your diagram could not be a result of any triple product involving v and w and another vector

I help with (b) probabilities of 1 white and 1 red
@analog lichen Has your question been resolved?
@analog lichen Has your question been resolved?
find the chance of every white + red occuring and then add them together
So for white I’ll need to multiply 1/7 x 0/7 x 1/6 x 1/6
And for red it’s
4/7 x 4/6 x 3/6 x 4/6
Is this correct????
So what you need to do is the chances that 1 white and 1 red is pulled
There are 2 occasions where this occurs
Picking red then white
And picking white then red
Find those probabilities and addd them together
So 1/7 * 4/6 and 4/7 * 1/6
And add them together
What about the denominator since they are two different numbers
When you multiply two number multiply the numerators and then the denominators
So 1/7 * 4/6 = 4/42
Oh so multiply them not add them ?
We’ll multiply to find the chances of one of them happening and then add the two together
Say if we had 2 things that could happen
Picking a red ball and then picking a white ball
Or picking a white ball then picking a red ball
If we want to find the probability of one of each being chosen, we want to consider both
So find the chance of one of them happening by multiplying the probability and the do that to the other one and then add the two results together
Both of them equals 4/42
Yes so add them together
So it’s 8/42

The solid that the triple integral in cylindrical coordinates representated is the green one?
yea that looks right. the z=0 plane would be the floor
and no 3 <= z <= 4 - r^2?
my mistake, is z=2
if the solid that the integrate representate is the green one of the image above, why z goes to 0 and no to 2?
I have to draw the solid and change it to cartesian coordinates
why are you plotting z = 2?
0 <= r <= 2
yes, then the radious of the cylinder will be 2
oh
wait a minute
this is the solid?

Does this like correct? If not, give me a hint! If there was an easier way to do it, mention it!
Ur looking for h’ it seems
I am
I used the quotient rule
On the last line how’d u get from the first to the second numerator
You you rewrite that
I don't understand
1^2 cos^2(t) = 1 + cos^ t right?
U went from cos t + 1 to simply 1 in the numerator
oooooooo
What
you gotta open your own channel...
isn't cos^2 just cos * cos ?
Yes
x^2 / x can be reduced to x / 1
oh wait
why do I feel like that doesn't work
if it was x / x^2
U have $\frac {x+1}{x^2 + 1}$
Stephen
hmm
yeah true
okay nvm
I don't need to reduce the fraction anymore than it is then
right?
Uh
1 sec
Oh wait yea I see where u messed up
U changed $(1+\cos x)^2 \rightarrow 1+\cos^2 x$
Stephen
In the denominator
Freshman’s dream
huh?
