can you help me find a derivative mine just doesn't seem right haha
and two
did you play league customs
in the boss status discord server
heres the answer i got
-2cos(x) * -sqrt2x
I mightve I dont remember but the name sounds familiar
and then your derivative is wrong
it should be 2cosx - sqrt(2)x
you have an extra negative sign in your first term and the terms should be added not multiplied
remember that dy/dx (a + b) is equal to the dy/dx (a) + dy/dx (b)
i dont understand that
if you have two terms you can take the derivatives of them seperately
like if you have d/dx(x^2 + cosx) or something, it is equal to d/dx(x^2) + d/dx(cosx)
so your equation is equal to d/dx(2sinx) + d/dx(-sqrt(2)/2 * x^2)
the derivative of 2sinx is 2cosx
the derivative of -sqrt(2)/2 * x^2 is equal to -sqrt(2)x
so you add the two to get 2cosx - sqrt(2)x
is the first derivative
then you take the derivative of that to get the second derivative

What abt #3 c and d? How do I do those?
@vestal fern
Could you plz also help me w/ these?
@obtuse coral Has your question been resolved?
Try plugging in x values and find the corresponding y value
f(0)=1
So 3 * f(0) = ?
What abt for d?
It’s a reflection across the y-axis, right?
Does this look right ?

64 = 2^6, 512 = 2^9
you gave the answer 😭
How is that the answer lol
lol
This is merely a hint. They still have to apply their formula correctly.
Plus they already STATED that they think it should be a sum/diff of cubes.
ik the formula
Write both terms as something cubed
It looks to me like the powers I gave you are divisible by 3 ...
i dont get this fraction stuff
If 64 = 2^6, can you not write 1/64?
1/x = x^{-1}
😭
64
use exponent rules
1/64
You can multiply exponent of exponents.
yes.
2^1/6?
No you multiply the exponents
2^-6
What is 6 * (-1)
Yes
Ok
So you have 2^{-6}*x^12 + 2^9.
Can you write the left term as a cube (divide exponents by 3) ?
Last time I checked something cubed is (something)^3
You don't want to have a cube at the end, you want to express it as something^3
For instance
didnt u say the 2^-6
2^15 = (2^5)^3
needs to be expressed at cubic
You want to express the left term as something cubed
You're looking to the something
yes
If you'd rather, just take the cube root of both terms
But that is the same as dividing the exponents by 3
yea

Why is generalised modus ponens also called lifted modus ponens—what exactly is being lifted here?
@gentle orchid Has your question been resolved?
doesnt it refer to the order of logic
i.e: modus ponens is in first-order logic
general modus ponens is in second-order logic
so its "lifting" an order of logic
assuming i know what you are talking about
that sounds reasonable. the context in which generalised modus ponens appeared for me is in first-order logic compared with propositional logic
I'm assuming--not entirely sure--that first-order logic is higher order compared to propositional logic. Hence modus ponens that is used in propositional logic, can be generalised to apply to higher-order logic
no prob! i don't know either that's why i'm asking haha
i think this works, propositional logic is zeroth-order logic as it has no free variables. thanks!

What does the mod mean in this problem, and how do I go about interpreting it?
Modular arithmetic, 2^k divides i - t
So like, sum of nCi, for i between 0 and n such that 2^k divides i-t
Hmm unless it's saying 2^k is t?
Where are you getting i-t from? It looks like it's the sum of t * nCi
Cus tbh congruences are usually written as $i \equiv t \mod 2^k$
992qqoloy
The t thing is part of the subscript but nCi isn't
What is $k$ referring to exactly? I think that would help answer the question
992qqoloy
k is just an integer value
And t isn't 2^k? It's its own thing?
This is the full problem. t is 0, 1, 2, .... etc.
OK so $i \mod 2^k = t$ is most probably just a different way of writing a congruence relation 
992qqoloy
If you have $a \equiv b \mod c$
992qqoloy
That means the same as c divides $a-b$
992qqoloy
so for instance $7 \equiv 1 \mod 3$
992qqoloy
So the only way I can see to interpret this is for instance, if $n =16$ and $k =2$, then $a_3$ would be $\binom{16}{3} + \binom{16}{7} + \binom{16}{11} + \binom{16}{15}$
992qqoloy
cus 3,7,11,15 are the numbers between 0 and 16 that are equivalent to $3\mod 2^2$
992qqoloy
Ohhh okay, so it's like a summation, but only choosing the values of i that fit with the mod thing?
yeah

2cos²(3x-pi/4)=1 0<=x<=pi/2
i don't know where i did wrong bc answer key says a different answer
and I'm confused cause the answr is pi/3 in fraction form but I get decimals so is there a way to convert or something
okay but what we have to do here?. like to find the general solution of this?
there is a formula If$\cos^2(\theta)=\cos^(\alpha)$ then $$\theta = n\pi+ \aplha$$
!Yajat!

okay im not doing it now
i always typed it on my pc. in phone it sucks
okay so we have a formula
okay
you missed the postive part
you solved for the negative part, now make another case and take root 1/2 positive
nvm i solved it
There's still another angke to solve
Answer key says its 0, how
pi/3, pi/6 and 0 how did they get 0
so when you're taking postive part, cos inverse 1/root2 should give you pi/4, so pi/4 from each side gets cancelled out and then 3x=0 therefore x=0
,w \arccos(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})
i got 3x-pi/4=pi/4
But that doesn't give u 0
,w \arccos(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}})
That's a wrong answer according to the answer key
u can't use -1/root 2 tho cause the negative sign just tells u which quadrant it's in so it should still be positive 1/root 2
they got 0 by -pi/4 but where did the negative sign cone from
,w cos(3pi/4)
,w cos(-pi/4)
,w cos(pi/4)

Have you done squeeze theorem?
yes
i know that sin(x)/x as x aproachhes infinity is 0
but for this im not too sure
direct substitution gives u finite/infinity, which is always equal to 0

wouldnt the distance from the intercept to the vertex be 1.25
the person doing the sum seems to be getting 7.25
but -17/4 is -4.25
and -3 is the vertex
so 1.25 should be the distance between right
leading the other interceptto be at (-7/4,0)?
ah so the answer i got is correct right
thought so too
pretty sure he missed the -3 here
so it shouldve been 17/4-3

Given an angle, how could I find a positive integer such that the cosine of the product n times the angle is minimal?
given a fixed angle θ, minimize cos(nθ) for n in N?
yes
the angle given is between the value -180 and 180
I understand that from the cosine table I could try to convert the angle to one such that cos(nθ) becomes 0, but what if that's not possible ;-;
in the problem, If I am given 16, the solution is n=17 and cos(272)
so I guess I just have to compute the answer with every possible number until I find the minimum value?
💀
well
you want an angle that is as close to an odd multiple of 90°
as possible
if the given angle is an integer, you could probably do smth with modular arithmetic
what could I do with modular arithmetic? :0
use Bezout's Identity
@indigo shard Has your question been resolved?
thanks, I;m looking that up
is there something I could do if the number is not an integer though?
If I am given 88.817841970012523233890533447265625, I should get 154618822656 as the answer since the cos of the product is close to 0

What do i do on g
Are you trying to solve for all the variables?
The thing i should do is simplifying
There’s no equality how would you solve nothing
I think i get g h gonna be a bigger problem
Yea thats why im confused
Distribute the -1 and reduce
They ask you to simplify so not particularly
What does the last word mean im not really good at understanding english words for math im german
Just saying it’s not weird
-(a + b) = -a-b
And -(-c) = c
Use this to simplify
What do you want to do ?
Simplify it but idk how
Expand and reduce ?
What
@clear umbra do you know what to do on g
Its simplifying
But idk what to do
Jts basically nothing i can do
<@&286206848099549185>
you can distribute the - over the parens
What does that mean
for example, $$ -(3b - 4c) = -3b + 4c $$
rysrobrgldvoelr👻ep>vneae=u
do you know how to open up the brackets?
Nope
Thats why im struggling
A
Wait
But how do i open the first one with none
@dreamy sleet
a+2b-3b+4c+5c+6a?
Now to make it even easier
Where did this come from?
second bracket
yeaaa and then just simplify everything
-1b+9c+7a
well it's nicer to write it in alphabetical order but thats just me being picky
My main problem is just that we had a new theme and i forgot about everything

same w -ve signs
Thank you
ah.. practice lots ig
ask ur teacher for help too 👍
Got this day and tmr and then im writing my exam
good luck 🙂

Do you know how to solve a system of two equations with two unknowns?
yes but not with the powers
Why should it be different?
Well
How would you go about solving this?
Let me rephrase
i factorise it
oh wait
hmm
i would move
y to one side in the first equation
You mean (-1)
yeah
Okay
wdym by that
You've probably learned 2 different methods
Yes
and ex smth
Elimination
yeah
Solving by substitution and by elimination
Solving by substitution means isolating a variable in one equation and plugging it in the other
yes
Solving by elimination means getting rid of one variable and getting the other that way
In our example
a^3+y^3=[a+b][a^2-ab+b^2]
We can easily solve this by substitution
what
You see that we can isolate either x or y easily in the first equation right?
here is a theorem
yes
So why don't we do that and plug it into the second equation?
u can have a try
u mean without the power right?
Nevermind this
No
oh
The example you were given
yeah?
$x + y = 5 \ x^3 + y^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
Math mode for latex
kk
yeah but the thing is im not that good at it
Well now's as good as time as any to learn it
So what did we say earlier
Isolate a variable in one of the equations and plug it in the other
Would we isolate a variable in the second or first equation
like add them?
Which looks easier?
No
first one
x
Okay, what do we get?
x=5-y
$x = 5 - y \ x^3 + y ^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
yeah
i dont get it
USS-Enterprise
This is the same as $x \cdot x \cdot x + y^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
USS-Enterprise
That's exponentiation
Means repeated multiplication
We've got $x^3 + y^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
And x = (5-y)
yes
So just write (5-y) instead of x
And solve for y
But note it's getting cubed
So we get $(5-y)^3 + y^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
Or $(5-y) \cdot (5-y) \cdot (5-y) + y^3 = 35$
USS-Enterprise
See how I just replaced x for (5-y)?
yes
USS-Enterprise
So just solve this for y
i was doing it in note pad and i got this x = 5 - y
if x = 5 - y then
(5 - y )^3 + y^3 = 35
(5-y)(5-y)(5-y) + y^3 = 35
125 - 75y + 15y^2 - y^3 + y^3 = 35
5(25 - 15y + 3y^2) = 5(7)
25 - 15y + 3y^2 = 7
15y + 3y^2 = 7 - 25
y(15+3y) = -18
15 + 3y = -18/y
3y = -18/y - 15
im pretty sure its wrong
15y + 3y^2 = 7 - 25
Is your first mistake
You've got -15y not 15y
So we get $3y^2 - 15y = -18$
USS-Enterprise
ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
yeah
USS-Enterprise
USS-Enterprise
USS-Enterprise
$y_1 = 3 \ y_2 = 2$
USS-Enterprise
And then you plug y1 and y2 into the original equation and get two x's
So this system has 2 pairs of solutions
oh aight so i just have to substitute it
after this process
Yes
First pair is (y1, x1), second is (y2, x2)
So (3, x1) and (2, x2)
x1 is what you get after plugging in y1 and x2 is what you get after plugging in y2
How'd you get 1
x = 5 - y, so x1 = 5 - 3, x1 = 2, x2 = 5 - 2, x2 = 3
$(x_1, y_1) = (3, 2) \ (x_2, y_2) = (2, 3)$
USS-Enterprise
That's your solution
OH i havent learnt simutanious equation for like this
ah
Should refresh your knowledge
On both substitution and elimination
They are quite useful
yeah
Anyway
ima go learn elimination

there are 2 deltas and i dont know how to pick the correct one
Just asking, are you allowed to use continuity?
this part no
Ok got it, lemme think
Okay so. Start with a delta, and use | x - 9| < delta
Expand that to get
9 - delta < x < 9 + delta
From this I think you can get somewhere
4 - delta < x - 5 < 4 + delta
Don't take this literally, I'm just suggesting
but i couldnt undertsand the fingding of the correct delta
should i choose the small one
Problem is it might not work...
I could find epsilon in terms of delta but idk if it has a delta for every such epsilon
Nvm, it certainly doesn't
Wait
I think I got it
what class is this?
thomas calculus math101
I don't see any other way (read: simple) way to proceed except proving sqrt(x - 5) is continuous in [5, infty)
Then the limit of the function at that point is the value of the function at that point
Continuity is easy to prove, in fact it can be shown it's even uniformly continuous
This is how you show its continuous

if $\lim_{x\to a}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$ is of the form $\frac{0}{0}$ and $\lim_{x\to a}\frac{f'(x)}{g'(x)} = l$, then $\lim_{x\to a}\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} = l$

Just divide by x top and bottomm
what is L at the end?
You'll have derivative of a function
just the finite limit of f'(x)/g'(x)
so if there is likely a hole at a specific X value, then the derivative of top/bottom functions represent the x/y variables of the coordinate of the limit?
(tried my best to rewrite your rule from math to english)
$\lim_{x\to 0} \frac{ \frac{1-e^x}{x} }{ \frac{ln(2-e^x)}{x} }$
both of those are equal?

ty
what is this equal to?
It's just the derivative at x=0
and does it work (althoguh likely unnecessary) with almost any X value?
sadly a certain stat of my body has shot up a lot in the past year
stat name: ||laziness||
just needed help with this quesiton
ty for you help
its just 1/(2 - 1) = 1
Yeah you just did lhopital rule there but not directly
It's helpful when u're not allowed to use lhopital rule in exams like me
do you often find yourself memorizing rules just so you can derive them during exams?
U mean derivative rules?
no i mean literally any kind of rule
smth like sin rule from geometry
idk
but do you do this often/ at all?
I rarely memorise i just understand the intuition behind it (not the exact proof)
so just the english logic?
Mathematical logic xd
And L'Hôpital's rule is really simple u just derive top and bottom and evaluate
But since I'm not allowed to use it in exams i just divide by x like i did there (if limit as x approaches 0 of course) divide by x-a in general
So doesn't need memorising

Hi i have problem set up as a system of equations
x+y+z=200
10x+53y+84z=7850
.04x+.04y+.03z=272
yet i put it into a calculator and get answers in the thousands
What did you get
Is there any difference between a share of a stock and a stock
umm not sureee
maybe you have the formula for dividend yield wrong?
You solved it right
if its only suppose to equal 200 shares total why am i getting numbers in the thousands
they add to 200, it’s just that some of them are negative
there is no problem with the solving of the equations, so the equations are probably wrong
or maybe the dividend yields given are for monthly dividends and you actually need the annual dividends
i thought i had it when i multiplied my price by dividend yield and submitted it but it was wrong because they only equaled to be 199.9998 shares
so whatever

I’m curious, where did you go wrong
i had to set the dividend yield equation to price
so i mutipled 10 x 4%
53 x 4%
84x 3%
and put those answers back in the equation

how would you simplify this?
do you see any relation between the numerator and the denominator?
well yeah
if the signs were flipped for one of them then it'd be 1
would it be -1
yes
oh you can multiply the numerator or denominator individually by a negative?
one easy way to show that would be to factor out a -1 from the numerator
oh ok
so you're not multiplying a numerator or denominator by negative you're factoring
yes correct

I dont even know where to begin
notice that f is decreasing
yes
that means if f(x)>f(y), x<y
yes
yeah so the inequality keeps getting opposite?
yes opposite each time you cancel
Okay
we get f(x) > -x
finally
But is there a way to solve inequalities for a cubic?
just plug in positive x
no need to solve it as we just check positive integer
yep
no problem

at what point on parabola y=9-x^2 does the tangent line draw the smallest area triangle with the coordinate axes?
I would recommend starting with a diagram
like drawing?
like a and f(a)
no restriction are mentioned
Hmm ok
now i would crete the tangent line at the variable poiknt?
yes
so it is y-f(a)=f'(a)(x-a)
yes that is through
ok so now what do we need to find the area of the triangle?
well it is going to be a right triangle since one angle is 90 because of the axes. So the area is going to be width X height X 1/2
the width can be solved by getting the x-intercept?
yep so find the x-intercept in terms of the variable you used for the variable point
so y=0 and i solve what x is then
exactly!
how do i solve x?
is this possible? i didnt substitute f(a) and f'(a) this time
actually i did a mistake ill try again
small mistake, gradient is actually -2a
ah yes
here are both axis intercepts and they should be correct
and heres the function for the area
and now to find the lowest value i have to derivate it
Exactly!
I would then also test that a is actually producing a minimum using second derivative test
how wouldnt it be quite hard to derivate that a second time?
Instead of using the expanded form it would have been easier to use quotient rule
I'll send a picture of my working
the derivative is thiså
ok so you started the differentiating with gf'-g'f
but i dont really grasp what happens after that
$4a^2(a^2+9) - (a^2+9)^2$ \let $y=a^2+9$ which gives $4a^2y-y^2$ \then factor out y $y(4a^2-y)$ \then sub back $a^2 + 9$ to get $(a^2+9)(4a^2-a^2-9)$ \then simplify $(a^2+9)(3a^2-9) = 3(a^2+9)(a^2-3)$ let $\frac{d}{da} = 0$\ thus you get $3(a^2+9)(a^2-3)=0$ \which then gives $3(a^2+9)(a-\sqrt{3})(a+\sqrt{3}) = 0$ \which means that $a=\pm\sqrt{3}$
SKELEROY
then the last step of the gradient table
I subbed in values of a that are around sqrt(3) into the derivative to figure out that the curve is concave up when a=sqrt(3)
ok i think i finally understood what you did there, did you substitute x^2+9 with y for simplicity so that the equation is essier to factor
practical, so to get the answer for the question i just chuck the value cbrt 3 in the area function
yes, additional question, is a=-sqrt(3) a valid solution?
well thats also another point on curve so seems logical because even though its on the negative side of the axis it still creates a triangle with the axis. So to answer the original question "at which point on the parabola 9-x^2 does the tangent draw the smallest triangle" there are two points
cbrt 3 and 6 and -cbrt 3 and 6
wait a sec why are we doing cuberoot?
oops meant sqrt
haha all g
well gotta go so thank you very much for helping
No worries!

why cant i simplify root(4x^2 + 9) to 2x+3
The root function isn’t linear
ie. it doesn’t have the f(a+b) = f(a) + f(b) property
what does that mean? is it because the 9 would have to be 9x for this to work?
U can only breke down to 2x+3 if (4x^2 + 9) has sqaure
root doesnt split over sums
I see okay
√(a+b) not equal to √a + √b 
okay thanks

Its a 9x^2 btw
I do not understand how to factorise this at all or how to expand the fully factorised version
Like there is parts i understand but i cannot connect them. I guess i need someone to walk me through it all with words, no metaphors though.
Ping me if you respond. Thank you.
,rccw
@cyan swallow well do you see a connection between 3x and 9x^2?
@cyan swallow Has your question been resolved?
Lcf
3 and x
Also, 3 x -3 = -9
Can you walk be through with words on how it was factorised
And how it could be expanded from that further factorised point
so you know the common factor for 3x and 9x^2
then just factor it out
so you have 3x((a+b)^4 - 3x(a+b)^2)
Yea
Yea
so whats left is that second line there
