#

sure makes sense lol

#

thanks

#

btw i have more questions

#

could i get help on those too?

lunar lynx
#

Basically, Sum is less than 1/3 -> works.
Sum is greater than 1/2 -> works.
Both would have worked too but that's not possible in this case.

minor crystal
#

Okay makes sense, that was probably a stupid question

#

For this one

#

I had Quantity B is bigger

#

i used hypergeometric on both

#

,, \frac{3C_2 \cdot 2C_1 + 3C_1 \cdot 2C_2}{5C3} = \frac{9}{10}

#

Is that quantity A?

wraith daggerBOT
#

kanna22

minor crystal
#

Quantity B looks like 1 because there's no way he doesn't pick a red even in the worst case scenario where he picks BBB and then R

lunar lynx
#

What if BBRB ?

minor crystal
#

I mean

#

Idk lol

lunar lynx
#

It's certainly not 1.

minor crystal
#

,, \frac{3C_3 \cdot 2C_1 + 3C_2 \cdot 2C_2}{5C_4}= 1

#

I guess order doesn't matter in hypergeometric

wraith daggerBOT
#

kanna22

lunar lynx
#

First one also seems a bit wrong to me. You are assuming that you are taking out 2 Blue and 1 red, or 1 blue and 2 red, but they consider all orders so you are adding extra cases.

#

Like RBB is also included in 3c2 * 2c1.

minor crystal
#

Yes I'm aware now that i've written it out

#

How do i do it with permutations then

#

Or whatever

lunar lynx
#

I think you do it this way - Instead of doing it for 3 balls out of bag, do it for 2 and then ensure that third ball being taken out is blue. For part A.

#

Denominator would change accordingly i.e. 5c2.

#

Edited.

BBR = 3/6 * 2/5 * 2/4 = 1/10

#

BRR = 1/10 as well

#

1/10 + 1/10 = 1/5

lunar lynx
minor crystal
lunar lynx
#

Also, how 3/6 ?

#

There are only 5 balls.

minor crystal
#

oh misread

#

,calc 3/5 * 2/4 * 2/3

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.2
minor crystal
#

so 1/5

#

for BBR

#

,calc (3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3)*2

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.2
minor crystal
#

so 2/5 for quantity A

#

Quantity B: BBBR, BBRR, and other permutations?

#

BBBR = 4!/3! = 4

#

BBRR = 4!/(2! * 2!) = 6

#

so

#

,calc 4* (3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 * 2/2)

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.4
minor crystal
#

,calc 6* (3/5 * 2/4 * 2/3 * 1/2)

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.6
minor crystal
#

what

lunar lynx
#

RBR = 2/5 * 3/4 * 1/3
BRR = 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3

minor crystal
#

same thing

lunar lynx
#

Both are 0.1 so total is 0.4.

minor crystal
#

hence why i multiplied by 2

#

the total is 0.4 imo

#

not 0.3

lunar lynx
#

0.4

minor crystal
#

yes i already did that though

minor crystal
lunar lynx
#

Ah. I misread.

minor crystal
#

How to do Quantity B?

#

oh i see

#

"BBBR = 4!/3! = 4
BBRR = 4!/(2! * 2!) = 6" this is a bit wrong

#

BBBR = 3!/3! = 1 because we're only permuting BBB's

#

BBRR would be 3!/2! so 3

#

,calc 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 * 2/2

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.1
minor crystal
#

,calc (3/5 * 2/4 * 2/3 * 1/3)*3

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.2
lunar lynx
#

Yeah. That seems correct.

minor crystal
#

It's wrong i guess

#

0.2 + 0.1 = 0.3 not 0.4

#

This is a long process

lunar lynx
#

Why do you need 0.4?

minor crystal
#

The answer is equal lol

#

A = B

lunar lynx
minor crystal
#

oh yeah typo

#

,calc (3/5 * 2/4 * 2/3 * 1/2)*3

wraith daggerBOT
#

Result:

0.3
minor crystal
#

okay 0.3 + 0.1 = 0.4

#

so they're equal

#

but this was way too long to do tbh

#

I have 1 minute to do the question lmao

#

without a calculator too

#

and also there's the fact that i could make silly mistakes on top of that

#

I guess there's a more optimal way to do this

#

Oh wait

#

Aren't they equal because they're independent events?

#

Probability of me getting head on the 100th flip and on the 1st flip is the same

#

Wait

#

THey're dependent events

#

Lol because "without replacement"

thorn spindle
#

does anyone know how to prove a rotated shape are the same or any resources I can look at

solid juniper
plush thistle
#

What do you mean the same?

solid juniper
#

what?

thorn spindle
#

an example would 2 be triangles are rotated , what is the minimum information i need to know they are the same

green thorn
#

rotation preserves angle measure and dimension

#

in other words, a shape is congruent to its image after rotation

thorn spindle
#

what steps would do to test this

#

(also for a polygon of N sides)

green thorn
#

rotations are a rigid transformation no matter what youre rotating

# rose flax
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 was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
rose flax
# green thorn !status

between 1-2 i have got a answer for sin301 but i dont know how to approach the rest or if it is right

green thorn
#

waht did you get

rose flax
green thorn
#

so lets apply basically the same idea to cos255

rose flax
#

is cos75 correct for the next?

green thorn
#

sounds right

#

now tan110

rose flax
#

tan70? im not too sure

#

or -70

green thorn
#

not quite

#

lets take a look at the unit circle

#

does it make intuitive sense that tan(90+x)=-tan(90-x)

rose flax
#

yea

green thorn
#

great

#

so what is x in this case

rose flax
green thorn
#

we have tan(110)

green thorn
#

then 110=90+x

#

and x=?

rose flax
#

ah sorry haha

green thorn
#

so tan(110)=?

#

(using the equation above)

rose flax
green thorn
rose flax
green thorn
#

yup

#

last two

#

cos(2pi/3)

rose flax
rose flax
green thorn
#

what quadrant is it in

rose flax
green thorn
#

what cosine in the first quadrant is this going to look like

green thorn
#

but whats the value "across" the y axis from 120

rose flax
#

300'

green thorn
rose flax
#

cos 60 is

green thorn
#

but cos(120) and cos(60) arent exactly the same

#

what do we have to do

rose flax
green thorn
#

because its on the other side of the y axis

#

last one

rose flax
#

cot(-2pi/3

rose flax
green thorn
#

so what value in the first quadrant has the same tangent as -2pi/3

rose flax
#

60?

green thorn
#

so if tan(60)=tan(-2pi/3)

#

then 1/tan(60)=1/tan(-2pi/3)

#

and cot(60)=cot(-2pi/3)

rose flax
#

so 1/cot(60)=1/cot(-2pi/3)?

green thorn
#

and we know the tangents are equal

#

so the cotangents must also be equal

rose flax
green thorn
#

ok so you said cot=cos/sin

rose flax
#

yes

green thorn
#

which means you understand cot=1/tan

rose flax
#

yes

green thorn
#

and if x=y, then 1/x=1/y

#

right

rose flax
#

yep is cot60= 1/tan(-2pi/3)?

green thorn
#

and 1/tan(-2pi/3)=cot-2pi/3

#

so cot60=cot(-120)

rose flax
#

ah okay and does that fall within the range given

#

i was a bit muddled on that bit

green thorn
#

ah

#

they want it in [0,40]

#

well

#

we can just invert it i suppose

#

cot(60)=tan(30)

rose flax
#

ah i see haha do the rest of fall into the range?

green thorn
#

so -cos60=-sin30

green thorn
green thorn
#

i can go over why those are true if you want

rose flax
#

hmm does cos75 work

green thorn
rose flax
#

for cos255

#

as in within the range 0-45

green thorn
#

ah

#

well 75 is not in that range

#

since 75>45

rose flax
#

yes heh

#

how do i invert it

green thorn
#

well

#

for specifically angles in the first quadrant

#

sin(x)=cos(90-x)

#

and cos(x)=sin(90-x)

rose flax
#

so sin 15?

green thorn
#

right

rose flax
#

oki thank you!! just one last thing haha when it says in terms of trig function of a single argument

rose flax
#

single argument

green thorn
green thorn
#

uh

#

a single argument just means theres only one things in the parentheses

#

like sin(1234)

rose flax
#

ah i see

#

well thank you so so much for your help!!

inner solar
#

The matrix A ∈ C^(n×n) is called antihermitian if A = -Ā^T, where Ā = (Āij) is the matrix obtained from A by taking the complex conjugate of all its elements. Show that the set of all antihermitian matrices of type 2 × 2 forms a vector space over R (the set of real numbers). Find a basis for this vector space and determine its dimension. Explain why it is not a vector space over C (the set of complex numbers).

inner solar
#

to show that it is closed under addition i just need to do this? $A+B={-}{\overline{A}}^T{-}{\overline{B}}^T={-}({\overline{A+B}})^T$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

crimson delta
#

yes

inner solar
#

alrigh and with that logic to show Closure under scalar multiplicationis is this satisfactory? $Ac={-}{\overline{A}}^Tc$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

crimson delta
#

scalar multiplication is usually from the left

#

where have you used that c is real

cedar kilnBOT
#

@inner solar Has your question been resolved?

inner solar
inner solar
#

$cA=c{-}{\overline{A}}^T$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

crimson delta
#

later on they ask you to show that its not a vector space over C

#

so if you allow c to be a complex number then something has to fail

#

you have to show that $cA = -\overline{cA}^T$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Denascite

inner solar
#

ah yes i understand now

inner solar
#

be patient with me please bacause i am kind of lost xd

crimson delta
#

well you have shown so far that $cA = -c\overline A ^T$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Denascite

crimson delta
#

so thats quite close

inner solar
#

now i just take complex conjugate of c?

crimson delta
#

well can you just do that?

#

or does that change the value

inner solar
#

hm c is real number since i am trying to show closure under scalar multiplicationi then it shoulnd change

crimson delta
#

yes

inner solar
#

so i can just write $cA = -c\overline A ^T= -\overline {cA}^T?$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

inner solar
#

and thats it?

crimson delta
#

if you specifically write down that the second equality holds because c is real

cedar kilnBOT
#

@inner solar Has your question been resolved?

inner solar
crimson delta
#

well this holds for all matrices

#

which you hopefully have shown before

#

so in particular it holds if you only consider special matrices

inner solar
#

i got it

#

and now how do i find its basis?

#

@crimson delta

crimson delta
#

write out the elements as (a,b ; c,d)

#

can you get conditions on the elements?

inner solar
#

$A = \begin{pmatrix} ip_1 & a \ -\overline{a} & ip_2 \end{pmatrix}$, $p_1, p_2 \in \mathbb{R}$, $i \in \mathbb{C}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

inner solar
#

something like this?

#

i found this on polish wiki xd and it is general form of antihermitian matrix

crimson delta
#

ok so we can choose p1, p2 and if we write a=c+d then we can also choose c and d freely

#

now make easy choices (aka all of them zero except for one) and you get your basis

inner solar
crimson delta
#

no from your general form

#

sry I meant a=c+di

inner solar
#

ah alright

inner solar
crimson delta
#

for example, yes

inner solar
#

$\langle \begin{pmatrix} 0 & i \ -i & 0 \end{pmatrix},\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \ 1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \ 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}\rangle$

#

co can this be my basis?

inner solar
crimson delta
#

well in all possible options

#

4 variables

#

4 basis elements

inner solar
#

ah true ture sory ymy bad

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

inner solar
crimson delta
#

no

#

where did the i's and the - go

inner solar
#

oh 😦

#

well in first matrix ive put all zero except d, then all 0 except c, then p1=1 and lastly p2=1

#

isnt it that what youve meant?

crimson delta
#

exactly what I meant, yes

inner solar
crimson delta
#

but you missed the i's in front of p1 and p2

#

and also the - from -conj(a)

inner solar
#

ah true treu

#

$\langle \begin{pmatrix} 0 & i \ i & 0 \end{pmatrix},\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} i & 0 \ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}, \begin{pmatrix} 0 & 0 \ 0 & i \end{pmatrix}\rangle$

#

now correct?

crimson delta
#

check the first one again

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

inner solar
#

now?

crimson delta
#

yes

inner solar
#

noice

inner solar
# crimson delta yes

and the reason why it isnt vector space over the set of complex numbers is that all coeficients could be zero except for matrix $\begin{pmatrix} 0 & 1 \ -1 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ and since it does not have any complexx component it can not create complex number?

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

crimson delta
#

no

inner solar
#

😦

crimson delta
#

find a matrix A and a complex number c such that A is in the set but cA is not

#

one of your basis elements will do

inner solar
#

so if my complex number will be $-i$ then if i multiply it with for example $\begin{pmatrix} i & 0 \ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ i will get $\begin{pmatrix} 1 & 0 \ 0 & 0 \end{pmatrix}$ and this matrix is not in yout space?

wraith daggerBOT
#

Slowaq

crimson delta
#

yes

inner solar
#

alright thank you so much

paper vortex
#

with which series can i compare 1/(2(n+1)) to prove convergence or divergence?

dire geode
wraith daggerBOT
#

riemann

paper vortex
#

yes

dire geode
#

Why do you think that converges

paper vortex
#

if i compare with the harmonic series it doesnt prove me anything since 1/n is bigger than 1/2(n+1)

dire geode
#

Factor out 1/2 from your series

paper vortex
#

it diverges by the integral test

#

but im still not getting the comparison

dire geode
floral arrow
#

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{2(n+1)}$

wraith daggerBOT
floral arrow
#

You want to know whether this converges, right?

paper vortex
#

yeah

floral arrow
#

So do as riemann said

#

It's a sum, you can factor thing out

paper vortex
# floral arrow It's a sum, you can factor thing out

maybe im not getting the comparison test right, because i suppose you mean i should compare 1/n+1 with 1/n ( 1/n+1 < 1/n), since 1/n is known to diverge, but isnt this pointless since 1/n+1 is smaller than 1/n? if it was the opposite i would know for certain that 1/n+1 explodes

#

like 1/n-1

floral arrow
#

You can just add 1/(2*1) to that sum

floral arrow

floral arrow

#

Need help with this one

meager jungle
#

n/(n²+kn+k²) = (1/n)/(1+(k/n)+(k/n)²)

vague nebula
#

mhm

meager jungle
#

you could change this to an integral form

vague nebula
#

ok

#

then

meager jungle
#

lemme think

#

ok so

#

have you found the value of S_n

#

when n->infinity

vague nebula
#

doesnt it become undefined

#

no no

#

im wrong

#

it becomes

#

integral 1 to 0 dx/(1+x+x^2)

#

lemme calculute that

#

@meager jungle

meager jungle
#

yes

vague nebula
#

its

#

pi/3root3

#

so yeh option one

#

@meager jungle

meager jungle
#

yes

vague nebula
#

so yeh one option

#

what do we do about the second half of question

meager jungle
#

use the fact that T_n = S_n - 1/(3n) + 1/n

vague nebula
#

mhm

#

yeh i got the answer

#

the idea i suppose

#

i will take on from here

#

thx man

lean glade
#

Given that car A is 500 m behind car B at t = 0, at what value of t does car A
catch up with car B?

lean glade
#

Can I use a suvat equation to work it out?

sharp lotus
#

another way you can think about it...the area under the graph of the velocity equals the distance the car is traveling

#

for example since distance = time x velocity, look at car B's left part of the graph, the part where its velocity is 15 and it's traveling for 30 minutes at that velocity

#

distance for that part = 15 x 30, which is the area of that rectangle

#

you can convince yourself it works for a triangular part of the graph too by thinking of average velocity for that part

lean glade
sharp lotus
#

so you would have to figure one at which part of the graph, the area under the graph of A is 500 more than the graph of B

#

that means it would be catching up at that moment

lean glade
#

at t=40

#

b is 100 ahead of a

#

so

#

20 seconds more#

#

cuz b is 25ms-1 and a is 30ms-1

#

thus 5 difference

#

and

#

100/5 = 20

#

so at t=60

sharp lotus
#

oh wait no youre right, my bad

lean glade
#

np

sharp lotus
#

yep, so that sounds good to me

#

by the way you just used calculus 😄

Hi I have a problem but I don’t really know how to explain it since I’m not a native English speaker so I’ll try my best to translate it and let me know if you don’t understand a thing

Basically it’s about « divisibility in Z »

Let a and b be two natural integers with 1<= a <=9 and 0<= b <= 9
We consider the number abab….ab written in the decimal system
This number is therefore composed only of the digits ab repeated n times, where n desginates a non-zero natural number

  1. We consider the number ababab. Write this number in terms of a, b and powers of 10. (I did this one)
  2. Deduce that ababab is a multiple of ab (I need help for this one)

Here’s what I did for the first one :
a10^5 + b10^4 + a10^3 + b10^2 + a10 + b1

For the second one my teacher told me to obtain something like a(…..) + b(…..) = ab

I started by doing a(10^5 + 10^3 + 10) + b(10^4 + 10^2 + 1) = 0
After this I’m completely lost

dire geode
#

Factor out a 10 from the first term

#

Then you'll get a common factor to both terms

echo estuary
#

You mean I have to do a(10^5 …..)/10 ?

dire geode
eager jasper
#

If ababab is multiple of ab then ababab = 10^5(10a+b) + 10^3(10a+b)+ 10(10a+b) now take 10a+b common hence done

echo estuary
#

Misunderstood it

eager jasper
#

You can do it for arbitrary terms

dire geode
#

Yea dx gave you the solution

echo estuary
echo estuary
#

Maybe you meant 10^4(10a+b) + 10^2(10a + b) + (10a+b) ?

#

Because it matches better my first answer

eager jasper
#

Yup thats work fine

echo estuary
#

And so after doing that what am I supposed to do I don’t really understand

eager jasper
#

Okay so when we talk about multiple

#

Like multiple of ab

#

Whats ab actually in its 10a + b

#

Like 34 = 3*10 + 4

#

So now the number which you are given

#

ababab

#

Has to be a multiple of ab

#

I.e of type m(10a+b)

#

Where m is some number

#

That's what we are doing

#

First writing ababab in decimal notation

echo estuary
#

I SEE

#

Omg thanks it’s been like 3days I’m stuck on it

eager jasper
#

a×10^4 + b×10^3....

echo estuary
#

Thank you sooooo much really

eager jasper
#

But ababab is just numeric notation

#

Like 123

#

Actually they are 100×1 + 10×2 + 3

echo estuary
#

Alright I see thank you so much

eager jasper
#

Np

echo estuary
#

I appreciate

mental quail
#

can someone show me how to solve for the exact value of this log?

I was shown one method but it seemed very convoluted and i'm just looking to see another way thats simpler

crimson sedge
#

tbh, i'd just write everything in powers of 3

#

and simplify further

mental quail
#

not mine but the log rule someone showed me was something i hadnt seen before. where they turned log_9 into log_3^2 then turned that into 1/2 log_3

crimson sedge
#

write everything in powers of 3

#

and use log properties

#

$\log_{3^2} (3^7 \cdot 3^{\frac{4}{5}})$

mental quail
#

can you show me the rule for turning log_3^2 into 1/2 log_3? like an image from the web or something

wraith daggerBOT
#

notamy

mental quail
#

and further simply the things in the backet to 3^39/5

#

but i just dont really get the moving the ^2 to be 1/2

#

so i want to see the log rule for that explained somewhere

#

for example

#

i see all this but i never see how they rearrange the b infront of log

#

and as a fraction

crimson sedge
#

$\log_{a^2} b = \frac{\log b}{\log a^2} = \frac{1}{2} \frac{\log b}{\log a} = \frac{1}{2} \log_{a} b$

wraith daggerBOT
#

notamy

mental quail
#

ahhhh......tysm

#

that clears it up

#

is there anything else i should know or is that it?

verbal pawn

#

Problem A and B I don’t know how to start it

#

For 77

#

Here’s the notes

#

I think it’s y=k/x but what to go from here?

dire thorn
verbal pawn
#

Replace “k” with x+6

crimson sedge
#

replace x with x+6
y = k/(x + 6)

verbal pawn
#

Why?

#

Nvm I know why

dire thorn
#

Because in the sentence, x is replaced with x+6. So it should make more sense that we place the x in the formula with x+6 rather than the k

verbal pawn
#

ok

#

ya

#

so

#

For B

#

I think

#

I just plug in 0

#

0=k/x+6

crimson sedge
#

ye and plug in value of k as well

verbal pawn
#

K is also 0?

crimson sedge
#

wait

#

first find value k by plugging in y = 1 and x = 1

dire thorn
verbal pawn
#

so

#

set is equal to 0

#

ok wait

#

0=k/x+6

#

?? then solve for k?

#

ok I got -5

crimson sedge
#

y = k/(x + 6)
you'll need to find value of k before proceeding to B part
the question has given the information via which value of k can be found - "y = 1 when x = 1"
so put y = 1 and x = 1 then what would be value of k?

verbal pawn
#

Ohh

#

I think -5 would be right?

crimson sedge
#

uh no

#

1 = k/(1 + 6)

verbal pawn
#

Omg

#

I put 1 for k

crimson sedge
#

oof, happens sometimes

verbal pawn
#

ok

#

I have

#

x+6=k

crimson sedge
#

1 + 6 = k

#

y = 1 when x = 1

verbal pawn
#

okay now what do I do after that

crimson sedge
verbal pawn
crimson sedge
#

okie, you've found that value of k right? it's 7

verbal pawn
#

yes

crimson sedge
#

now put x = 0 and k = 7 in y = k/(x + 6)

#

you'll get value of y when x = 0

verbal pawn
#

Ok

#

I got y=7/6

crimson sedge
#

ye

#

correct

verbal pawn
#

that’s it or nope

crimson sedge
#

that's it

verbal pawn
#

DONT LEAVE ME

crimson sedge
#

that'd be the answer for b

verbal pawn
#

I have one more question

crimson sedge
#

alright alright

verbal pawn
#

so if I’m writing it as a sin wave

#

ok wait

#

first question is

#

what would the period be ?

#

if I’m making sin wave

#

I have to write sin equation

crimson sedge
#

is it possible to find where the graph intercepts the x-axis?

verbal pawn
#

Idek

crimson sedge
#

cause there's a slight shift to right

#

and idts we can find it by just seeing the graph

verbal pawn
#

what if we were writing a cosine equation then?

solid juniper
crimson sedge
#

the equation would be of the form 4sin(x - a)

solid juniper
#

you can just look at the peaks to determine a

crimson sedge
verbal pawn
#

Ok thx

#

.close

minor crystal
#

model it as acos(b(x + c)) + d

#

a = (max-min)/2

#

d = (max + min)/2

#

c is just the phase shift so compare it to how cos(x) would normally be at x = 0

#

@verbal pawn

verbal pawn
minor crystal
#

converting to a sin(x) counterpart is trivial using cos(pi/2 - x) = sin(x)

#

,w graph 3sin(pi/2 - (x + pi/2)) +1

However, I'm unable to understand how to use the theorems on limits to prove this problem

cursive valve
#

Hello

cedar kilnBOT
cursive valve
#

I found a pattern in number line that is new to me.
If i want to find if something is divisible by 7 -> I find the one's place of that number so let's say the number is 245, one's place is 5. So in each 10th iteration there is always one number that is multiple of 7 that yields a number with 5 as it's one's place. For instance 7 * 5 is 35, 7 * 15 is 105. So I can check if 245 is divisible by 35 or 105 to reduce the number of steps of division I do. If it is divisible, then it is also divisible by 7 else not.
What's the term for this technique in mathematics ?

crimson sedge
#

if some number is divisible by say 35 then it is also divisible by its factors (like 7)

#

Its kind of obvious, since the last digit of a product of 2 numbers is defined by the last digits of the 2 numbers you multiply

#

You can prove it with modular arithmetic

cursive valve
idle tusk
cursive valve
#

That will yield the lowest number of steps the division takes.

crimson sedge
#

Its HCF(Highest common factor)

cursive valve
#

I don't know if these are basics or not. But I feel as if I discovered this pattern by myself instead of reading in some book.

#

Also I am new to maths.

crimson sedge
#

U discovered HCF which is pretty useful

cursive valve
#

lol

idle tusk
cursive valve
#

I think I have read about modular arithmetic when I learned about the RSA algorithm.

#

I've just read it though, i don't fully understand it.

#

Anyone have anything to say more about this can reach me out in my DM. I am closing this.

prisma gull
muted mica
#

yea

#

but the example that my friend sent, it has an x in the denominator but if theres no x, what am i gonna do

nova snow
#

if theres no x then its better for you

muted mica
#

how soo

nova snow
#

if theres x on the bottom you have to worry about what values will make the function undefined and have asymptotes and stuff

#

but this is just a straight line

muted mica
#

so its simply { 2, to infinity}?

nova snow
#

whats the domain of a normal straight line

#

like

think of it as a gets bigger rather than a = infinity

errant wasp
#

whenever performing algorithms on vector spaces, do you want to put them in their basis

errant wasp
#

so then you only perform these operations on all the unique vectors than are in the span of a subspace

crimson delta
#

that is such a general question, impossible to answer

#

most useful algorithms are probably written just in terms of a basis, not in terms of the vector space

#

cause well usually vector spaces have infinitely many elements so doing stuff to them is kinda impractical

errant wasp
#

a basis theoretically is just all the unique vectors that belong in some dimension right

crimson delta
#

uhm

#

not really

errant wasp
#

i just said that because the vectors are like linearly independent

they are, yes

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 was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above

I got 25 as the answer

austere hull

rugged cape
#

but apparently the answer according to the book is 22

#

ok

austere hull
#

I think you need formula for that iirc

rugged cape
#

error for volume of tank=1000/2=500 and error for volume of a full cup=10/2=5. We have to take the upper bound of the water tank to have as much water as possible and take the lower bound of the full cup volume to reduce it and thus get more (but smaller) full cups. Upper bound of tank volume=6500 cm^3 and lower bound of full cup volume=295 cm^3

#

6500/295=22

#

wait it gives 22

#

sorry I took 255 instead of 295 in my calculator and got 25

#

Thanks

Question: Consider a simple coin game where you can bet any amount of money. If it lands on Heads, you double your bet; if it lands on Tails, you lose your bet. Consider a strategy where you start by betting $1. If you lose, you will bet $2. If you lose again, you will bet $4, and so on in this way until you finally win a toss. Once you have won a toss, your strategy has been implemented, and you stop. If you have a total bankroll of $63 available to implement this strategy, what is your expected profit?

okay so i have a polynomial

#

which is this

rain drift

hi channel is occupied. Please wait for another channel to open

sick dew

#

omg mb

#

i didnt see

solid juniper
#

6 dollars can't be right

#

half the time you'll end up with $64, right?

#

oh

#

wait

#

expected profit being like

#

you end with $69

slate lintel
#

half the time you'll profit $1 yeah

solid juniper
#

6 dollars still sounds wrong

sick dew
#

Yeah 6 seems wrong

slate lintel
#

it is wrong

slate lintel
solid juniper
#

you can't expect profit

slate lintel
#

ie the bets that you lost

sick dew
wraith daggerBOT
#

Sam525

slate lintel
sick dew
#

Then I thinkk to lose all 63 dollars you need to lose 6 times in a row so 1/2^6 chance of losing 63?

fair geyser
#

@sick dew yes

#

you add it like (−63)(1/64) + 1(63/64)

sick dew
#

So then if the expected gain is $1 and expectd lss s 63/64 iis the expected prof 1-63/64=1/64 dollar?

sick dew
fair geyser
#

it is

#

i know you said 0 along time ago

#

i just don't think your calculation made sense but i could be wrong

#

sorry for tht

sick dew
#

Ah ok no thank you for explaning it properly I was saying 0 based on vibes lol

Thank you for your help!

viscid frigate
#

a little confused on how to approach this question

broken mist
#

If it asked you to find h(4), what would you do?

viscid frigate
#

set it up so its 4h

#

i thinkk

white latch
#

What makes you think that?

white latch
viscid frigate
white latch
viscid frigate
#

yes

white latch
#

Knowing that is true why would you set it up so its 4h then? What do you mean by that.

#

Looks like your saying a vertical expansion of 4 almost which is ambiguous and would be changing the function which we cannot do.

viscid frigate
#

ohh

white latch
#

so x = 4n

#

is an input.

#

We have to INPUT that into the function.

#

The original input is the x, all we did was apply operations on it and transform it where we have 2x^2 - 3

viscid frigate
#

gotcha

white latch
#

Do you understand how inputs and outputs work?

#

Its alright if you don't, I just need to see where your gaps are coming from.

viscid frigate
#

input is what goes into the function and output is what comes out of it

white latch
#

Right, so lets say I inputted 1 into the function

#

what would that come out to be?

#

h(1)?

viscid frigate
#

-1 ?

white latch
#

Of course its negative 1 what else would it be?

#

Do you just want the answer?

#

I can then guide yah through step by step or I can keep hinting yah and make yah think analytically till u understand why.

viscid frigate
#

no keep going

white latch
#

Ight, so make u think abt it critically right?

viscid frigate
#

yes

white latch
#

Kk. Thats what I like to see.

viscid frigate
#

it will help me understand this better 😭

white latch
#

Ofc.

viscid frigate
#

not sure what else it would be except for -1

white latch
#

Exactly.

#

Now.

#

The number we plugged in that is a what _ value?

viscid frigate
#

1

white latch
#

Ima teach u abt inputs and outputs

#

u seem to be lacking in that.

#

Which is where the confusion is coming from.

#

Are you doing compositions as of rn?

viscid frigate
#

yes

white latch
#

Ight I'm gonna help for 10-15 more mins but then gotta dip.

viscid frigate
#

nwss

white latch
#

Alright.

#

So with every function we know there is an input and output.

viscid frigate
#

mhm

white latch
#

Think of a function as a machine

#

we plug something into it.

#

We get something out of it.

viscid frigate
#

gotcha

white latch
#

Now here is a confusing part

#

Many people believe that any operation we perform on our initial x value is a considered a functions operation.

#

Here hold up this may take a while to explain ima just eplain it simpler terms for yah.

#

h(x) = 2x^2 - 3

#

I think where your confusion is stemming from is that your thinking if x = 4n, but 4n can equal anything then how can we have that as an input and thats causing you all these problems?

viscid frigate
#

ohh

white latch
#

Is that whats confusing you?

#

Because if I say something like find h(8)

#

You are able to compute that just fine as you did with h(1)

viscid frigate
#

yeah i think thats the root of the problem

white latch
#

Mk, so compositions are a "function of a function." Its not a definite number as such that we plug in since its a function.

#

familiar with this notation?

viscid frigate
#

yes

white latch
#

mk, so f just denotes f(x) and g denotes g(x)

#

What would this come out to be its okay if your unsure.

#

I don't expect you to know this as its your primary root confusion.

viscid frigate
#

not sure

white latch
#

Alright, no worries.

#

Now the notation here represents "f of g" or in others the function f defined in terms of g.

#

initially what was our input for the function f?

#

f(g(x)) what would that come out to be?

#

we are updating the initial variable for f(x) with g(x).

#

Well star I wish I could stay longer and help, but am unfortunately busy.

viscid frigate
#

its ok 😭

white latch
#

I'm going to post the answer, but am going to keep the message hidden.

#

Unblur it once you have come to an answer or have done the best you could.

viscid frigate
#

ok thank u sm!

white latch
#

|| h(x) = 2x^2 -3 --> x = 4n (AN INPUT) --> h(4n), we need to update the initial varialbe x with our new input. Therefore h(4n) = 2(4n)^2 - 3 --> 2(4n)(4n) - 3 --> 32n^2 -3 ||

white latch
#

A deadly sin is doing problems before understanding the concept. DO NOT do that.

viscid frigate
#

yeah agreed
