actually wait
alpha and beta are just the roots of the quadratic equation
x^2 - 5x + 3 = 0
and alpha^2 + beta^2 can be determined using
(alpha +beta) and (alpha * beta)
Wait aren't the both equations same so aplha/beta or beta/alpha will be 1?
Oh
Nvm
Alpha is not
Equal
To beta
@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?
coldtee
Yep there are two ways to solve it
and u can't root that so
x^2 -5x + 3 = 0
alpha and beta are the roots
alpha + beta = 5 , alpha × beta = 3
$x^2 - (\alpha/\beta + \beta/\alpha) + 1 = 0$
coldtee
how'd u get this equation tho? or is it the final answer u got
.
The thing is OP is 👻
We are the OP NOW
ahhhhhh makes snse
So if we solve that we get $x^2 - \frac{(\alpha + \beta)^2 - 2\alpha\beta}{\alpha × \beta}x+ 1= 0$
coldtee
Then just subbed the values

$\frac{6 - x}{4x+3}$
紅卫兵,周
why cant i factorise the $3*2=6\ and 3 on the bottom?$
you mean cancel?
紅卫兵,周
yes
3 is not a factor of the top
and 3 is not a factor of the bottom
if you tried to divide the top and bottom by 3 you'd have $\frac{2 - \frac{x}{3}}{\frac{4x}{3}+1}$
Ann
which does not help you, most likely
oh so that means the 4x must be 12x? and x = 3x?

37b
So I find the inverses of A and B and go on from there?
Can't hurt to try
Well what are you going to do with the inverses
F=A^-1 * C * B^-1
But Idk what order to do it
So first A^-1 or B^-1 or something else
Are you asking whether you should do (XY)Z or X(YZ)?
Well think about what you doing to both sides of the equation AFB = C to isolate the F
The identity matrix
I'm not sure
Yes but you have to decide on which side you're going to multiply by the inverse
As that matters, since the multiplication is not commutative
Ok
Wdym which side tho
I have to multiply the whole equation so both sides by the inverse right?
You multiply both sides of the equations by an inverse yes
But it matters whether you are multiplying from the left or from the right
Like the hint says XY is not the same as YX in general

I have this function. I should calculate the fourier series and show that it converges to f (pointwise).
I calculated this fourier seires but idk how I should proof that this converges to f
?

So to solve these sort of questions you differentiate first
Since we already know that it’s increasing >0
Then we find x is that correct?
In the first the derivative is your 6x-8
I have to make x alone right?
So it would be x>8/6
6x + 8
Not 6x - 8
Then set 6x + 8 = 0
Then find x, then perform sign analysis
@sleek mantle
X=4/3
No
Yes
Now draw a number line, and have a single marking for -4/3
Test a point to the left of -4/3 and right of -4/3 by plugging it into f’ and see if it’s positive or negative
From there, you will see where it’s increasing
No. How do u know it’s not x< -4/3 ?
Right, but that doesnt tell u where it’s increasing
f’(x) > 0 on what interval
Can’t just assume it’s on x > -4/3
It can be on x < -4/3
Alright gotcha
For f,g and h
F I completely don’t know what to do so let’s starting with that
I got the derivative don’t know what to do after
What did u get for a tho
X>-4/3
15x^2+12
Set equal to 0 and solve
X^2=12/15
U can’t really square it cause square root a negative isn’t a real number
Yea
So it’s either increasing on its entire domain or decreasing on its entire domain
Check two points to see
If a>b and f(a) > f(b), you know it’s increasing
If not, it’s decreasing
Oh we can assume that?
I mean it says find where it’s increasing, but yea ig so then
So it’s just the entire domain then
What’s a domain 😭
The possible values of x you can plug into the original function so that the original function will still be defined
What do you mean still be defined
For the function f(x) = sqrt(x), are there any values of x u can’t plug in and get a real number?
U shd know what a domain is if ur doing calculus lol

I calculated the limit in x=0 and this is 0 from both sides, thus it's continous, right?
And thus, it is converging, or is it?
@dire geode you helped me earlier with the definition and I found some in my script. One for continous functions and one for none continous functions. The task says I should show it's converging pointwise. But the defintion for the continous function is saying it's uniformly converges
so, I assume it's wrong that f is continous, maybe you can tell me why. Then I'd use the (f(g+) + f(g-) )/ 2 for this?
Can you not

The values of p
and q
for which the function f(x)=[sin(p+1)x+sinx]/x , x<0
q , x=0
[√(x+x²) - √x]/x^3/2 , x>0
is continuous for all x
in R
i got q=p+2 after equating the first two
@lost token Has your question been resolved?
nope
Hello. Maybe try finding the limit of f x→0+ because it doesn't have p or q in it
In that way you'll get a single number, which must match with q for continuity
ooo wait ill do that
i got 1/2
oh so ill put q=1/2 and then ohhhhhh okay got it

Hey i have got a quick question
If a+b = x+y then under what conditions can we say that a is equal to x and y is equal to b
a-b = x-y
Okaay now lets start once again
If a+b = x+y AND ab=xy then can we say x equals a and y equals b?
No.
How??
Oh wait you are right
ab= xy under what conditions a equals x and y equals b ?
You basically need a second equation right?
So that you can solve them together and then say, x=a, y =b

@dull dirge
Yes
Hmmm, gotta rethink the logic then
P = power set?
why is b false?
wha
probabilities are numbers, they aren't subsets of each other
nor can you take unions of them
Yeah, it's power set
They mean + by union and . by intersection, no?
lol I been treating them as probabilities
b is in fact true
power set of a set S is the set of all subsets of S
Both are true?
nope, a is false
Uhhh my god 😭 😆
only bottom one is true
Hmm, i got things confused here
a subset of AUB isn't necessarily a subset of A or a subset of B
#(P(A))=2^x
where x is the number of elements in set A
Thank you for the help, i shall redo the exercise
Don't worry about it 🙂

Hi guys. I had a small doubt. For this equation , we know that it has a HA at y=1 , so how is the middle portion of the graph allowed to cut that?
asymptotes is the behaviour at infinity
so we can ignore say (-6,6)
also, in general a curve can cut across the asymptote (even at infinity)
(simple example: e^-x sin(x))
didn't understand this
i undeersstand the vertical asymtote part really well
without a gdc , how do i know what the graph is gonna look llike? I know there a point (0,-1) (1,0) and HA at y = 1
horizontal asymptote means we only care about big x. small x doesn't matter
what's big x?
okay
but like with respect to this quetion , how do i go about drawing the graph?
I mark the asymtotes and the intercepts
yes
then fill in the gaps
we can join up the middle 3 red dots
then make them tend towards the vertical asymptotes
okay
so for VA = 3 , i take like x = 2.5 and see where f(x) is tnending to?
yeah, that works
oh so for VA its always goign to infinity - one side negative other side ositive
yes, they go to infinity
but its not always +inf on one side and -inf on the other
you should check to make sure
example?
which function graph would this be?
,w plot 1/|x|
Thanks
rational and mod functions are really confusing
you know any good resources to get better at this?
practice is the best way to learn these things
use desmos to graph functions as well
yeah
khan academy probably has some videos on it too
nah too boring

Is here anything specific about the choice of taking modulo 13
can I just took modulo 10, so 19^19 congruent to -1 mod 10?
you can choose any mod that works
my guess is that the author tried small primes, and 13 was the first one that worked
gives an argument that arrives at a contradiction
the important part of the proof is the second paragraph
my reasoning is that, when we take modulo m, any given number should belong to one of the congruent classes of mod m, 0 to (m-1)
yes, thats right
we want to show that x^3+y^4 = 19^19 mod n has no solutions for a nice choice of n
n=13 happens to work
@crimson sedge
we can choose any n for this matter right?
the computation is the only thing that is hectic here i think

question is to verify the solution by substituting. but y' = e^2 - 1 which when i substitute on the differential equation on left, gives me Ce^x-1 .
is it simply saying that the left side can be a solution if C = 1
how is y' = e² - 1
yeah okay, was just confirming what i said
yeah you right

How to test the convergence for the series of the sequence 1/[n(n+1)(n+2)]
Ratio test failed and i thought i could simply use comparison to say that 1/[n(n+1)(n+2)] < 1/n but then since 1/n diverges we can't exactly say anything about our main series
That series is convergent apparently

The values are 360,432,540,684.852,1020,1210
what unit scale should i use if im making a bar graph
you could use 100 to 1300 if you have space
Next time you can find this scale by considering the highest and lowest numbers
they have 3 to 4 digits
like how am i gonna know a good scale from them
yeah
that indicates you should choose something like 100,1000,10000
oh
makes sense
but 10000 is way too big
yeah
so you shorten it to 2000 or 1500
the boxes wont be enough
mhm
the lower one, 100, is about right, it tells you how big the boxes are
yeah i see that
now
thanks brother. you solved my problem for the whole bar graph thing

i've a really simple question, look at this equation
there's no negative number on the left side of the equation, the minus sign is a operation right? So why when i simplify this expression, i get this?
ignore the right side of the equation
it's all about the left side
my question is why the add operation is still there
the + 0?
cant the equation be rewritten as,
a + (-5/9) + 5/9 = (-8/9) + 5/9
wdym rewrite, it is the same equation
can you be more clear
ok
what's the question?
its in the pinned messages
in equations, we need to isolate the icognita, removing the terms with inverse operations, so i did add the + 5/9 on both sides of the equation.
why it is 0?
I saw that but what's the point of adding zero
if add it, it would be 10/9
when you add the (-5/9) and 5/9 on the left side of the equation you get 0
it is -5/9 which you add with 5/9 and get a 0
making the equation a + 0 = -3/9 or a = -3/9
but if so, it would look like (-5/9)
does not it?
they are the same thing according to me
I don't really know about that
according to what I have studied
it should mean the same thing
the book said that -5 is a negative number, and it would be represent as (-5)
and the operation a - 5
'a' and '5' are positive numbers
yes they are
if you follow that
then you get
a + (-5)/9
the only mean of it to work is if these operations "swap"
there's some property on it?
They are the same
What did the book say?
the book said that i need to be cautious on it, because operations and negative numbers aren't the same thing
Hm
but i understood now, thanks to this

i dont really understand how theyve gone from L1 to L2
specifcally where -cosx + cos^2x has come from and where -1 has gone
$$ -1 = \frac{-\cos x (1 - \cos x)}{\cos x (1 - \cos x)}$$
wakebloom
$$= \frac{-\cos x + \cos^2 x}{\cos x (1 - \cos x)}$$
wakebloom
Yes
let me think
So
Ok hold on
$$ -1 = \frac{-\cos x (1 - \cos x)}{\cos x (1 - \cos x)}$$
Well do you get this
wakebloom
yes
$$= \frac{-\cos x + \cos^2 x}{\cos x (1 - \cos x)}$$
wakebloom
i understand that
So then you just add that to sin^2(x)/(cos(x)(1-cos(x))
They have the same denomiator so you just add the numerators
And you get l2

Hi all, I'm having issues with solving this limit. I'm not sure if the second line is done ok. Thanks in advance
(3+x)-(1+3x) = 2-2x no?

All the roots of
[x^2 + px + q = 0]are real, where $p$ and $q$ are real numbers. Prove that all the roots of
[x^2 + px + q + (x + a)(2x + p) = 0]are real, for any real number $a$.
dabbbingpotato
I think I solved it, can someone listen to my proof and double check it?
go for it
$[x^2 + px + q + (x + a)(2x + p) = 0]$
dabbbingpotato
okay so we can simply this down by expanding $(x+a)(2x+p)$
dabbbingpotato
and turn that into $2x^2+2ax+xp+ap$
dabbbingpotato
then we add it to $x^2 + px + q$
dabbbingpotato
and we get $3x^2 + 2ax + 2px + ap + q$
dabbbingpotato
dabbbingpotato
we are given from the problem that p, q, and a are all real numbers
we are already given that $[x^2 + px + q = 0]$ has real roots
dabbbingpotato
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
so therefore $3x^2 + (2a+2p)x + ap + q$ must have real roots as well
dabbbingpotato
is that okay
Why is that last statement true? Everything before that made sense
dabbbingpotato
factor out the 3
from this
to make it
$3(x^2 + (\frac{2a+2p}{3})x + \frac{ap + q}{3})$
dabbbingpotato
so basically $\frac{2a + 2p}{3}$ is taking place of p in the original equation
dabbbingpotato
and $\frac{ap+p}{3}$ is taking place of q
dabbbingpotato
and the question gives us that All the roots of
$x^2 + px + q = 0$ are real, where $p$ and $q$ are real numbers
dabbbingpotato
so doesnt that mean this also has real roots
or am i tripping
$\frac{ap+q}{3}$ for the second one... I think more is needed to prove it.
epstmlgy
Here's a question: how do you tell whether a quadratic equation has only real roots?
if the discriminant is not negative
Yup, so that's the missing step. Use the fact that the first equation has nonnegative discriminant to prove the second equation does as well
dabbbingpotato
yup!
that's right
dabbbingpotato
i think
I have $4a^2 - 4ap + 4p^2 - 12q$ here
epstmlgy
oh right
thank you
your right
okay
$4a^2 - 4ap + 4p^2 - 12q$ is the discrimnant
dabbbingpotato
so we have to prove this is positive
nonnegative, yup
dabbbingpotato
😵💫
So by itself this isn't helpful, which is to be expected because we don't know enough about a, p, q
So you should use the other fact now, that
$p^2 - 4q \geq 0$
epstmlgy
dabbbingpotato
because the lowest that value can be is 0
and we are just trying to find if its possitive or not
Couldn't q positive in some cases?
I would say try getting rid of p or q so there are fewer variables
dabbbingpotato
so you would end up with this
hmm, I'm not sure where that comes from
looking at $4a^2 - 4ap + 4p^2 - 12q$ again, you could subtract a multiple of $p^2-4q$ and get rid of $q$ that way, since we know that can't increase the value
epstmlgy
dabbbingpotato
Yup! Can that take on negative values?
looks nonnegative everywhere to me c: I would try factoring it
Yup! Sure thing 😎
you were so much help 🙏

Hey math people
I'm having trouble focusing today, lots of stuff going on
And I need a sanity check XD
About the zero vector for polynomials. For "the zero vector to exist in S," do I need to show that for SOME (at least one) polynomial in S it is true that p(x) = 0?

having some trouble with this problem
not sure how to do the derivative of this
if i try to do ln(2y) and treat the 2y as a constant
You're looking for both partial derivatives
i get 1/0
yes I understand I need both
Tell me, what's the derivative of 2x?
2
But the derivative of 2 is 0?
yes
That's the mistake your making. ln(2y) is a constant multiple
let me work it out rq and show u
this is the issue i am having in specific
when i work it out
it becomes like this
i am not sure what you mean by this
like in this case
i know i need both partial derivatives
but right now I am just finding the one for x
then i will do y after
If I had asked:
What's the derivative of
2e^(4x/17)
Could you do it?
Now replace the constant 2, with the constant ln(2y).
ln(2y) is, yeah. Does not change with x.
is this because ln is dependent on the inside, and since it has y and we are doing partial derivative of x we should treat ln(2y) as a whole a constant
so then i just multiply it by the 4e^(4x/17)/17 i got then right
ohw ait
i would get the right answer
wow
that wa sway simpler
than i was thinking
thank you
if i do partial in relation to y would e^(4x/17) be a constant to then
no that is a really stupid thing i said
nevermind

Hey
does the red corner thingy mean you got it wrong?
Yes
then that's weird
Looks right ? Cause I’m thinking it could just be the website
$10^{25} \cdot 10^{11} = 10^{25+11} = 10^{36}$
imtyp0
Does the website understand the inputs?
Im not 100 percent sure my teacher just started using this website
But it does look right ?
Yes
Okay thank you I’ll just email my teacher then have a good day you might see more of me today though
Wait, are the "as large as" and "smaller than" options all you get?

The as large as one be tripping me
"as large as" is weirdly worded, but eh
Because I would expect higher than
Fr
and are the numbers multiple choice questions or do you have to type it out?
Type
ah then maybe what Kaynex said is right
it might not understand the way you typed it
can you reanswer the question or is it over?
Im retaking it again
then try answering with the ^ notation
I'm wondering if you just typed 10^11?
But it doesn’t let me check untill I finish answering everything
welp
I did lol I think I should maybe use the options they give me instead of typing out some stuff
Who knows lol
I mean if the site only accepts one type of input that's kinda dumb
you can't expect everyone to think the same
Oh
Maybe actually
So how would I answer the second one tho
Would it be like 1*10^-10

how is this solved?
Divide by the biggest power of x
so just divide by x^3?
do I just ignore the 24 and 1
do this if you need to show the steps
do this if this is an mcq and you need to be quick
and this, for mcq
yeah, the division thing is for being more formal I guess
u shd divide 1 by x^3 as well?
so 1/x^3 - 1/x - 1
yes
luckily he did it here

If I have a set A = {∅, 1, 2} would the P(A) = {{∅}, {1}, {2}, {∅, 1}, {∅, 2}, {1,2}, {∅, 2, 3}}?
Does that mean even though ∅ is explicitly stated in the set that it is counted weirdly when calculating the power set?
check if {∅, 2, 3} is a typo
It's not
hmm where do u get 3
ohhh sorry didn't see the 3
i thought youw ere asking about the power set symbol. yes it is a typo
You're missing the empty set itself i believe
last one should be {∅, 1, 2}
Isn't that covered by {∅}?
No
{∅} = {{}}
∅ = {}
Set containing the empty set is not the same as the empty set
Ohhhhhh okay! I see now, that makes much more sense
Also, if you wanted to check your work you can use the fact that cardinality of the power set is 2 to the cardinality of the original set
So |A| = 3 so |P(A)| = 8
So in this case, the ∅ symbol in the set declaration can be treated as any other number technically
Got it. Thank you both for the help!
Of course

The acreage of Hopetown, a town in Lewis County, is equal to 20% of the acreage of the region that is in Lewis County but not in Hopetown.
can you share the original problem?
does it define these quantities?
where is 18 coming from
Can I just pick numbers for this
This is a Gre style question
So I can choose A which means the value there is bigger
B where that value is bigger
C where both A and B are equal
And D means no relationship
That's what I don't understand
can you share the original?
My tutor gave me this
so are they saying hope county takes up 20% of lewis county?

Show that then Catalan numbers Cn count the number of ways one can triangulate a convex (n + 2)-gon. (For n = 0, there is no such thing as a regular 2-gon, so let us say there is a unique way of triangulating this non-entity, namely the empty triangulation.)
Define "triangulation"
like
wait
something along these lines
not even that
like
triangulation is basically the number of ways you can cut a shape up into triangles
wuthout flipping the axis
so like for this square it will. be 2
@dapper warren
How many triangles?

and redirecting you there at the same time
damn i blocked her but don’t remember doing it wtf

How would you simplify sin(2pi - x) and cos(2pi - x)?
please open your own channel. read #❓how-to-get-help
explain
If you were given those expressions, would you be able to simplify them? Ending up rewriting them in terms of sinx and cosx
okay i’m lost @south tundra
Generally
sin(2pi - x) = -sinx
cos(2pi - x) = cosx
If I were to rewrite 5pi/3 as 2pi - pi/3, would you be able to evaluate sin(5pi/3) and cos(5pi/3)?
Given this information
(Plug in x = pi/3 into the equations)
Well, if you are way more comfortable with degrees, then you may do that
so it would be Sin(2i-5pi/3) then
@south tundra
i finally understand it
i got them right

Working on part b.
In part b, I think the sampling here is with replacement. But, there's a restriction on a consecutive restaurant.
I'm thinking it's with replacement because Fred is fine with eating at the same restaurant within that week(but just not twice in a row). Does thay sound right so far?
Would I just need to subtract off those days where they could be twice in a row? So, (Monday, Tuesday), (Tuesday, Wednesday) , (Wednesday, Thursday), (Thursday, Friday)
@thick kiln Has your question been resolved?
@thick kiln Has your question been resolved?
i don't have pen and paper to actually do this but my first thoughts are 10*9^4
because for each night for Tuesday to Friday he can eat at any restaurant except the one he ate at last night
so 10 on Monday, 9 on each day for tue, wed, thu, fri
@thick kiln Has your question been resolved?
Ok so
On Monday he has 10 options
Then next day he has 9 as he can't go to same as monday
Next day also 9 as he can't go same as Tuesday
