Im doing some lingear algebra questions, and got this one
transelation:
Let
v1 = (1, 2, 3) och v2 = (−1, 0, 2)
be vectors in R3. which of the following vectors makes together with v1 och v2 a bas for r3.
A: (1, 0, 1)
B: (1, 0, 1, 0)
C: (0, 0, 0)
D: (1, 0, −2)
E: (0, 2, 5)

How should I think about finding the derived set A'?

For example, given A = (0, 1) U {2}: I know that 2 is not a limit point of A because there is no epsilon neighborhood around 2 that intersects other points in A, but why is it that A' = [0, 1] when 0 and 1 aren't included in A?

humble karma
#

Limit points need not be in the considered set.

acoustic mason
#

Ah, yeah, after thinking about that a bit that does make sense

#

haha, thanks

I am not sure how they got A + Bcos(2x) + Csin(2x)

#

Should it not be (A - [Bcos2x + Csin2x])/D ?

cedar kilnBOT
#

@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?

opaque harbor
#

you can expand that out and rename the constants

crimson sedge
#

their y trial or the one i came up with?

opaque harbor
#

yours

#

$$\frac1D(A-[B\cos2x+C\sin2x]) = \frac AD - \frac BD\cos2x -\frac CD\sin2x$$
Define $A'=\frac AD, B'=-\frac BD, C'=-\frac CD$,. then you get $$A'+B'\cos2x+C'\sin2x$$

I don’t know the difference between rhombus, polygon

trail frigate
#

soo

#

a rhombus is basically

#

a quadrilateral

#

with equal sides

#

so like a square is a special rhombus

tropic oxide
#

a rhombus is one that has 4 sides specifically, and all the sides (but not necessarily the angles) are equal

trail frigate
#

a diamond like this

\ /

is a rhombus

#

oops

#

but yeah

limpid plume
#

well anyways fuck it I'll ask here

I'm trying to prove that a morphism u: C -> D between two chain complexes of right R-modules C and D induce the homology module functor H_n(_).

limpid plume
#

I see that if I can prove that u preserves n-cycles and n-boundaries, we are done

#

I'm having trouble proving that. Only thing I know is each block in between the chain complex sequences created by the family of R-linear maps resting inside the morphism commute, hence for any n, we have

wraith daggerBOT

#

n cycles are kernel of d_n, and n boundaries are image of d_{n+1}, for any n

is this from weibel

#

if it is i might have this written down somewhere

wraith daggerBOT
limpid plume
#

how to do the opposite ;-;

limpid plume
short blade
#

this should be some symbol pushing from my notes

short blade
limpid plume
#

yes

#

wait

#

so

#

we don't ahve to show equality?

short blade
#

i don’t think so no

limpid plume
#

NO WAY LMAO 😭

short blade
#

you just need that d(u(x)) = 0

limpid plume
#

😭

short blade
#

so then the image of the cycle is a cycle

limpid plume
#

okay so similarly we show (u(d_{n+1}(C_{n+1})) \subseteq d'{n+1}(D{n+1}))

short blade
#

yeah

wraith daggerBOT
limpid plume
#

i mean not similarly but yeah

#

wait isn't this trrivial

#

d_{n+1}(C_{n+1}) is in C_n

#

oh wait it probably is not trivial

short blade
#

it's trivial in that it's just symbol pushing

limpid plume
#

bruh it was trivial

#

i am dumb.

#

no wonder timo said it was easy af

i think i have some knowledge gaps in trigonometry

is this some trig property?

no, its about what were inputting into the function

#

instead of inputting $\vartheta$, were inputting $-\vartheta$

wraith daggerBOT

ohhh ok gotcha

suppose $f(\phi)=e^{i\phi}$. then $f(-\phi)=e^{-i\phi}$

still barn
#

For a whole complex function f(z) we have:
f(z) (less than or equal to) (ln|z|)^2023 , for all |z| > 9. Show that f(z) is a constant function.

For this exercise I was thinking of using Liouvilles Theorem which states that if f(z) is a whole function where f(z) (less than or equal to) M, then f(z) is constant. I am not quite sure how to apply L.T. here though, since (ln|z|)^2023 is a function of z, and not just some constant M. Perhaps (ln|z|)^2023 is bounded?

i need help w linear algebra

flint plinth

what's the question?

hardy tiger
#

how do u solve this

flint plinth
#

well there are probably a number of ways, but the straightforward way is to find the eigendecomposition of A^t A and AA^t

cyan wyvern
#

Yo

hardy tiger
#

how do u solve for the eigendecomposition?

flint plinth
#

i.e. find eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A^t A and AA^t

hardy tiger

what do u do after u find the eigenvectors?

flint plinth

probably easiest if you just read up on how to do it, rather than me just paraphrasing the instructions 😁

i always make a mistake like this

#

anything can improve?

astral bay
#

...i'm not really sure what mistake you're referring to?

#

neither of those equations are true

stable sundial
#

sorry this one instead

astral bay
#

that's the same image

#

...well it's a different image but of the same thing

stable sundial
#

with cube root

astral bay
#

ok well that's still false

#

if 128 was equal to 4*cbrt(2), then cubing both sides, you would get that 2,097,152 = 128 and those are obviously different

#

so i'm still not sure what the mistake is here

Was having a think about Cauchy sequences: so a sequence is Cauchy if for all ε > 0 |an - am| < ε for all n, m >= N, so if we fix m = m1 >= N, do we get that for all ε > 0, |an - am1| < ε for all n >= N?

tacit spade
#

i thought the issue here might be that we can't fix m but I can't exactly see why that'd be the case

tacit spade
#

but then if you fix m = m2 don't you get (an) converging to a different limit?

flint plinth
#

well if you fix both of them then you no longer have a sequence, just a pair of numbers

astral bay
#

for all ε > 0 |an - am| < ε for all n, m >= N
this isn't quite the actual definition, you're missing a quantifier

#

for every eps > 0, there is some N such that, for all n,m >= N, |an - am| < eps

tacit spade
#

there exists an N?

#

yeah okay

#

so is the issue when we fix m?

astral bay
#

so you don't actually get that the sequence converges to a_m for any particular m

flint plinth
#

all you get is that all of your a_n's (for n sufficiently large) within epsilon of a_m

#

if you make epsilon smaller, you generally have to pick a bigger m

astral bay
#

for some sufficiently small epsilon, N might be larger than m, and then you don't have that the rest of the sequence is within eps of a_m

tacit spade
#

ahh okay

#

yeah i think the fact that N depends on epsilon makes it more clear

astral bay
#

for instance the sequence {1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, ...} is cauchy

#

if you pick the element 1/8 and say "well the sequence must converge to 1/8 then!"

#

i ask "ok so for eps = 1/64 when does the sequence become within that of 1/8"

#

but the cauchy sequence only stays within 1/64 after the term 1/64, which is after the 1/8

tacit spade
#

yeah that makes sense

astral bay
#

so the proof doesn't work, which makes sense because this sequence does in fact not converge to 1/8

tacit spade
#

great, thanks for clarifying

smoky ore

#

Hii, my understanding is that for real-valued functions, the Hessian is the jacobian of the gradient
so we differentiate gradient wrt theta to get Hessian

#

in this context the function g is the sigmoid/logistic function, so g'(z) = g(z) (1 - g(z))

#

my question is, how did they go from the gradient to H?

#

because like, X^T is n x m, g(Xtheta) is a vector (m x 1), 1 - g(Xtheta) also another vector m x 1, but we're probably doing element wise multiplication there, but then X is m x n, so
we have n x m x m x 1 x m x n, how does it even multiply properly?

#

simplification?

#

sorry this is a new formula my teacher threw in

#

so im trying to find it online

cerulean sail
#

As in can you share a screenshot of the whole page?

waxen fiber
#

this is everything

#

it continues on and adds to the problem with each answer

cerulean sail
#

catFone not particularly clear with what they mean, unless P is supposed to represent 6x^2 - 41x - 56 and Q is supposed to be that 6x^2 + 37x + 35

waxen fiber
#

its ok im just so confused

cerulean sail
#

Oh I think I know what they mean - it's so poorly expressed

cerulean sail
#

But they basically wanted you to notice that for any general P, Q, and R, you can multiply the numerator and denominator by the same thing (as long as it isn't zero) and it doesn't change the expression

waxen fiber
#

?

#

im still confused with how that applies to the equivalent expression property

cerulean sail
#

Basically, if you multiply the numerator and the denominator of P/Q by the same (nonzero) thing, you don't change the fraction

#

What do you think they multiplied the numerator by? What would you have to multiply the denominator by to have it being equivalent?

#

(the answer they want will be in terms of P, Q and R - maybe not all of those mentioned!)

waxen fiber
#

would they multiply by R?

#

or since the denom is (x+5)

#

and cant equal -5? u multiply that??

#

im still confused

cerulean sail
waxen fiber
#

ohhhh

#

so it would be QR?

cerulean sail
waxen fiber
#

it worked ! :)) ty

That was some of the worst explained I've ever seen catBruh

#

Compute the left side and the right side of the equation and make sure they match.

#

Or compute the first one and make it look like the second one.

summer lintel
#

yh i know

humble karma
#

In both cases, you'll have to compute the cross product

summer lintel
#

I meant like how

humble karma
#

Are you able to compute a cross product?

#

If so you have the coordinates given to you for all vectors.

#

The vector w+x shouldn't be too hard to manage either.

summer lintel
#

its just like this?

#

you multiply the terms along the diagonals from left to right and subtract the product of terms along the anti-diagonals from right to left

#

right

humble karma
#

Should be it. I always prefer the determinant trick with I,j,k, but this works, especially since it's a formula so you can directly apply it to your problem.

summer lintel
#

yh i,j,k trick should work as well

#

i was just thinking if you had a smart way to do it

#

or if i had to compute it all

humble karma
#

It's the proof for a fairly basic property, so I think brute force is mostly the way here.

summer lintel
#

this is the same

#

i think that is enough of a proof

humble karma
#

Yeah you could split the top but more explicitly into the two added vectors, but that's it

summer lintel
#

would this be correct?

#

or if all entries are 0

#

Or if you have a zero vector in one of them

summer lintel
#

v×w=0⟺either v or w=0 or v and w are parallel

#

If they are parallel

#

and if they are perpendicular

RSA is an encryption algorithm, used to securely transmit messages over the internet. It is based on the principle that it is easy to multiply large numbers, but factoring large numbers is very difficult. For example, it is easy to check that 31 and 37 multiply to 1147, but trying to find the factors of 1147 is a much longer process. RSA is an e...

#

how do we solve C and B?

#

,rotate

wraith daggerBOT
river topaz
#

B is the one above D

slow jewel
river topaz
#

no

slow jewel
#

You can use a property of circles to find it out

river topaz
#

which one

slow jewel
#

Angle subtended at the center by a chord is twice the angle subtended at any other part or smth

#

In this case that chord is BC

river topaz
#

what

#

alr what about C

slow jewel
slow jewel
river topaz
#

wdym oab

#

there is no O

slow jewel
#

The center is O

river topaz
#

ah my bad i didnt see that

#

how do we know they are equal

slow jewel
#

Cuz it's the radius

river topaz
#

oh

#

so that means the angle for both

#

is X

#

right?

slow jewel
#

Yes

#

Sum of angles in a traingle is 180⁰

river topaz
#

O is 110 right?

#

not the center like

#

the angle under it

slow jewel
#

Yes

river topaz
#

because its perpendicular to 110

#

so 2x + 110 = 180

#

x = 35?

slow jewel
#

It's vertically opposite

river topaz
#

what is it then

slow jewel
#

But yes it's 110⁰

river topaz
#

ahhh

#

alr alr i got it

#

still dont understand D tho

slow jewel
river topaz
#

i mean B*

slow jewel
river topaz
#

nope

#

what does subtended

#

even mean

slow jewel
#

Let's say you have a chord AB in a circle with center O

#

Angle AOB is the angle subtended by chord at center

#

And let's say C is any other point on the circle above AB
Then ACB is angle subtended by AB on the circle

river topaz
#

what doe subtended mean

slow jewel
#

Have you read the above messages?

river topaz
#

yes and i dont

#

get it

slow jewel
#

Draw a fig

#

With the above points

#

You'll get it

river topaz
#

subtended means angle at the center?

slow jewel
#

It's angle at a point
If it's at point O, then it's at the center

river topaz
#

alright then

slow jewel
river topaz
#

you know what

#

this question wont be in the exam

#

imf ine

thanks alot for the help

grim urchin

I have these points:
x=-0.37 y=-1
x=2.72 y=1
I want to get the slope. I tried with m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1). That gives me 0.65.
-0.37 x 0.65 = -0.23
2.72 x 0.65 = 1.76
I know that I haven't added the independient term, but I think that it is weird that the initial value is just a bit off from the correct value -0.23 vs -0.37 while the final value is very different 2.72 vs 1.76. This is lineal, so the difference should be the same in both (initial and final), right?

floral arrow
#

"pendiente" is "slope" in English

grim urchin
#

Thanks

dire thorn
grim urchin
#

Right

dire thorn
#

Ur m is fine though

floral arrow
#

You are comparing -0.23 to -0.37 and 1.76 to 2.72 but you should be comparing -0.23 to -1 and 1.76 to 1

I’m not sure what to do when the left side is a_1 instead of a_n. The second thing I’m not familiar with is the 3,

well the first term of the sequence is 3

thats what a_1=3 means

since we start at 1, we would then go on to find n = 2, and go on.

let's see

#

(I don't know why I modified the message lol)

subtle harbor
#

you just have to some clever +-=0 trickery

strong nexus
#

I get the interval between $0$ and $\pi\over2$ so I get $\sin x=\sqrt{1-\cos^2x}$ and viceversa

wraith daggerBOT
#

Leo, ze FluffBøt

subtle harbor
#

integrand gets down to $\frac{4\cos(\theta)}{\sin(\theta)+\cos(\theta)}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Moosey

strong nexus
#

Here I go for $u=\tan{\theta\over2}$ I suppose

wraith daggerBOT
#

Leo, ze FluffBøt

subtle harbor
#

no need for another trig sub

#

note that $\cos(\theta)=\frac{1}{2}\left(\cos(\theta)+\sin(\theta)+\cos(\theta)-\sin(\theta)\right)$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Moosey

strong nexus
#

I see

subtle harbor
#

we do this because if we let u=sin(theta)+cos(theta), du=cos(theta)-sin(theta)

strong nexus
#

Oh that's true!

#

Thank you very much for the insight ^^

From now on I suppose I can go on my own with the resolution

Alright this is not the type of question you usually get here

crimson sedge
#

But

#

If the first linear algebra class and the first discrete math class kicked my butt, am I doomed to suffer immensely throughout my entire upper level math journey if I take it?

#

did u study hard

slate lintel
#

not necessarily, but it may be worth examining what was so difficult about them

#

and how much practice you did

crimson sedge
crimson sedge
#

so I’m a comp sci major but

#

math would be my focus area

#

if you didnt already know, there is a lot of research in the past few decades about how learning works and how to study efficiently

#

but idk with all the classes after cal 3 I’ve felt so discouraged

#

could physics be viable too? if it’s just a ton of hard calc i could probably handle it

crimson sedge
#

i mean

#

what I want is my comp sci degree but i have to focus in an area too

slate lintel
#

linear and discrete are often very computation heavy. I wouldn't give up on it until you take something like an intro to proofs, intro to advanced math, mathematical reasoning, something like that

crimson sedge
#

fair

#

yk what

#

I should minor in astrophysics that sounds cool

#

I’ll look into that

uneven pagoda
#

Is there a continuous function R to R that is not lipschitz continous for any interval D in R?

solid juniper
#

original question?

#

oh

foggy merlin
#

And uniform continuity implies continuity

#

🤔

uneven pagoda
# solid juniper original question?
  1. Prove that every Lipschitz-continuous function f:D→R is continuous
  2. Show that conversely not every continuous function is Lipschitz continuous.
solid juniper
#

is D something fixed?

uneven pagoda
#

D is interval in R and f: D to R is Lipschitz-continuous

#

So i guess D is not fixed

#

e.g. i can show that x^2 is not lipschitz for x > 2C-y but what if this x is not in D

solid juniper
#

no that does not make sense

uneven pagoda
#

Why

#

|x^2 - y^2| = |x+y||x-y| <= C|x-y|
|x+y| <= C

#

for x = 2C - y the inequality doesn't work

solid juniper
#

like... yes what you're saying is kind of relevant

#

but you have choice over f, D, x and y

#

you want to show there is no C

#

i can see you've chosen f

#

D is also something you get to pick

solid juniper
# uneven pagoda

then one way to proceed is to show that for every C > 0, there is an x and y in D such that this inequality fails

#

that says there is no C such that the inequality holds for every x,y in D

sour crow
#

im not really sure how to finish this question can someone help? it's linear approximations calculus

sour crow
#

i thought i would just need to substitute in sqrt(3.9) into the x in a) but that didnt work

gentle flower
#

do you know the formula for linear approximation?

sour crow
#

L(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x-a)

#

pinging just to let you know i responded, sorry @gentle flower

crystal raptor
#

sqrt(3.9) = f(what?)

sour crow
#

i think i get what you mean

#

like finding x that would be the approximation of sqrt(3.9)? via L(x)

crystal raptor
#

if f(x) = sqrt(2+x) then sqrt(3.9) = f(what?) ?

gentle flower
#

what value of x would give you sqrt(3.9) ^

sour crow
#

im trying to think, im just kinda lost sorry

gentle flower
#

if you’re adding 2 to x, what operation would you have to do to get x back?

sour crow
#

subtract the 2

#

i guess

gentle flower
#

yes

#

what’s 3.9 - 2?

sour crow
#

1.9

#

oh

gentle flower
#

so whats the value of x when you have sqrt(3.9)?

sour crow
#

1.9

#

or yeah 1.9 right??

gentle flower
#

and what’s the linear approximation of f(x) at 2?

sour crow
#

3/2+1/4x?

gentle flower
sour crow
#

well if i went with the same structure of the formula it'd be like L(x) = 2 + (1/4)(x - 2)

gentle flower
#

now use 1.9 as your a value and 2 as your x value

sour crow
#

OH

#

i think i get it now

#

i did L(x) = f(1.9) + f'(1.9)(2-1.9) thats how im supposed to approximate sqrt(3.9) right?

gentle flower
#

yes

sour crow
#

i think im doing it correct but im not sure where im messing up

#

when i plug in f(1.9) into f(x) i get f(1.9) = sqrt(2+1.9) = sqrt(3.9)

gentle flower
#

is it webwork?

sour crow
#

yeah

#

🤷‍♂️ maybe webwork is just bugging, or rather i could be inputting it incorrectly?

#

i'd like to point out that it is practice questions just to let you know im not like cheating or something

gentle flower
#

try using this as your answer 2.00016024999

#

for 3.9

sour crow
#

tried, came back as incorrect, since the question asks for 6 decimal places as well it just takes the first 6

#

well what's more important is that im, doing it correctly

#

so as long as I know it's correct i dont really mind

#

oh what

gentle flower
#

oh

#

my bad

sour crow
#

no its alright lol

gentle flower
#

been a long time since i’ve done this

#

switched the variables

sour crow
#

i took a look and was like, i guess i should try this it makes a bit of sense

gentle flower
#

yeah i completely forgot that you’ll substitute 1.9 as the x value

#

well good job on figuring that out

sour crow
#

thank you two for pointing me in the right direction in general though! @gentle flower @crystal raptor

scarlet pasture
cedar kilnBOT
scarlet pasture
#

number uhh

#

59

#

i tried to make a ratio

#

but idk if thats the right direction im going in

subtle harbor
#

Let $x=$The price of the cheaper flour per kg

scarlet pasture
#

ok

wraith daggerBOT
#

Moosey

subtle harbor
#

then you have two equations you can set equal to each other

#

both involving x

scarlet pasture
#

yeah

#

ok

#

let me uhh think about htat

#

lol

#

i think

subtle harbor
scarlet pasture
#

the first equation is x+.15=y

#

uhh yes

#

and then ill uhh figure out the second one

subtle harbor
scarlet pasture
#

oh

#

what did i do wrong

subtle harbor
#

i would let y be the price

scarlet pasture
#

of the normal flour

#

yes

subtle harbor
#

price overall

scarlet pasture
#

wdym price overall

#

both products?

subtle harbor
#

both prices are the same (she's spending the same amount of money)

scarlet pasture
#

oh

#

wut

#

no shes not

subtle harbor
#

she's spending the same amount of money on different amounts of flour

scarlet pasture
#

wait what

#

it says she finds that if she buys some cheaper costing 15 cents less per kg

subtle harbor
#

i am reading the question wrong???

scarlet pasture
#

she can buy 2 1/2 kg more for the same amount

#

yes

#

shes spending less money

#

she gives you a rate

subtle harbor
#

yes

scarlet pasture
#

in which it tells you what it would be if

subtle harbor
#

spending the same amount of money

cerulean sail
scarlet pasture
#

what am i misunderstanding the question?

#

she buys some cheaper flour

#

tho

#

its 15 cents less

subtle harbor
#

yes, but she's buying more of it

scarlet pasture
#

she gives you a rate on what it would be if she had the same weight

#

😭

subtle harbor
#

ok

#

think about it in terms of units

#

let P be the amount of money she is spending

#

$

#

right?

scarlet pasture
#

oh waitttt no i think i get it

#

less per kg

#

im stupid

#

so same money but more kg?

subtle harbor
scarlet pasture
#

oh uhh

#

so would that be like

#

we dont know the kg tho

#

do we??

subtle harbor
#

we DO

scarlet pasture
#

oh wait uhh

#

she can buy 34.5 kg more flour for x

#

or wait no

#

we cant

#

its uhhh

#

for some other value

#

we dont know

subtle harbor
#

ok. x+.15 is the $/kg of flour for more expensive one

scarlet pasture
#

ok

#

ye

subtle harbor
#

and how many kg did she buy of the expensive one

scarlet pasture
#

32

subtle harbor
#

yes

scarlet pasture
#

so x + 0.15 = 32?

subtle harbor
#

no...

scarlet pasture
#

wut

#

im in pain

subtle harbor
#

ok

#

she's spending same amount of money

#

call it P

#

or y

scarlet pasture
#

ok

subtle harbor
#

units are

#

for x+.15

#

$/kg

#

32 kg

scarlet pasture
#

ye ok

subtle harbor
#

so what should we do with x+.15 $/kg and 32 kg to get to $

scarlet pasture
#

uhh x+.15/32?

subtle harbor
#

how do we get $/kg to become just $

scarlet pasture
#

oh multiply

subtle harbor
#

(don't think too hard about it)

scarlet pasture
#

srry

subtle harbor
#

yes

#

so we multiply 32 with (x+.15) to get the amount she spends on the expensive flour, i.e. 32(x+.15)=y

scarlet pasture
#

ohh

subtle harbor
#

do you know what the equation would be for the cheaper flour then?

scarlet pasture
#

uhhhh

#

i can try

#

34.5x=y?

subtle harbor
#

yesss

scarlet pasture
#

okk

subtle harbor
#

so we can set 34.5x=32(x+.15)

scarlet pasture
#

okk

subtle harbor
#

distribute 32

#

get the x on one side :)

scarlet pasture
#

oh ok

#

lemme just solve it

#

:D

subtle harbor
#

do you understand why we set them equal though? because she's spending the same amount

#

the same amount of $

scarlet pasture
#

19.2 is x right>

scarlet pasture
#

cuz if like

#

a=c

#

and b=c

#

a=c

#

so u just put the two systems together

subtle harbor
#

more like if a=c and b=c, then a=b

#

i'm assuming that's what you meant

scarlet pasture
#

SAME THING

#

😭

#

bleh yes

#

im just bad at uhh saying it

#

lol

#

ia ht;io4jwaprejareapio;anepo;irejwarea

fiery valley

why is

#

$(-1)^2 = 1$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Maladroit

fiery valley
#

but

#

$-1^2 = -1$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Maladroit

fiery valley
#

i know that (-1)^2 = -1 * -1

#

but whats the logic behind it

clear umbra
#

do you mean like why two negatives multiply to a positive or?

vestal hedge
fiery valley
#

but why

vestal hedge
#

^2 only works for the number it is on

fiery valley
#

why is (-1)^2 = -1*-1

vestal hedge
#

Here it is on 1

fiery valley
vestal hedge
#

In the first case it is on -1

clear umbra
#

well (-1)^2 means like you take the entire thing in the bracket

#

so -1

vestal hedge
clear umbra
#

and you multiply the entire thing in the bracket by itself

#

-1 * -1

vestal hedge
#

2 times 1^2 is 2 times 1 times 1

#

-1 times 1^2 is -1 times 1 times 1

fiery valley
vestal hedge
#

If it was (-1)^2 then it would work for the whole thing

vestal hedge
#

-4

fiery valley
#

^2 is only for positive 2?

vestal hedge
#

So you square the two and put the minus before it

#

Because the brackets tell us to do so

#

-10^2 is -1 x 10 x 10 which is -100

#

(-10)^2 is -10 x -10 which is 100

fiery valley
#

$-x^2 = -x(|-x|)$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Maladroit

fiery valley
#

or smthing idk

vestal hedge
#

You are overcomplicating it

fiery valley
vestal hedge
#

(ab)^c = a^c times b^c

fiery valley
vestal hedge
#

-2 is -1 times 2

fiery valley
#

wait nvm

#

i thought u meant -2 * -1 * 2

vestal hedge
#

-2=-1 x 2

#

(-2)^2 is (-1)^2 times 2^2
