}
yeah so this is what im getting
which is like really not helping
Maybe you can expand (1 * x) as (x + x') * x
oh so u want me to do it in reverse?
god bless you equality for being symmetric

ok but anyways
lets do this
[
x = 1\cd x = (x+x')\cd x = x\cd x + x\cd x' = x \cd x
]
I found it while trying this $$x+x=x+\left(1\cdot x\right)$$
Jelle
yeah its much easier this way
okay thats great
now proving x + 1 = x and x*0 = 0
lemme try
hm
so i cant say 1 = (x + x') because i dont have associativity
so that sucks
can you use all of these btw?
,tex i did like
\env{align*}{
x+1 &= (x+1)\cd 1 \ &= (x+1)\cd (x+x') \ &= \bs{x\cd (x+x')} + \bs{1\cd (x+x')}
}
yeah ig but my statement is still not really going muchh
oh, yeah it simplifies to x + 1
so question
when proving like stuff
can your premise contain whatever you want?
like we are only using the postulates here
but what if we take the other theorems as fact in our premise
Btw, I'm not really qualified to do anything here, I just happened to solve the first problem
no worries
so like
i tried doing it the other way
you get like [
1 = xx + x'x'
]
but idk how u r meant to simplify that
Well we already know x*x = x so i will use that
so 1 = x + x'x'
but like
how do i recover the fact that x'x' = 1
that doesnt seem right...
wait, does this work $$x+1=x\cdot1+1=1\cdot\left(x+1\right)=\left(x+x'\right)\left(x+1\right)$$
Jelle
$$x+1=1\cdot x+1=1\cdot\left(x+1\right)=\left(x+x'\right)\left(x+1\right)$$$$=\left(x\cdot x+x\cdot1\right)+\left(x'\cdot x+x'\cdot1\right)=x+\left(0+x'\right)=x+x'=1$$
Jelle
yeah, I'm not sure why my proof does work
maybe the order of expanding
you had (x + 1)(x + x')
yeah, so both are valid, but they might give a different looking result
mathematical trolling

ok wait
wait but
jelle
where did this term go
oh i see
you absorbed it using the previous theorem
yeah, you should probably use multiple steps
is it possible for elements to not be 0 or 1 actually? It seems there is no use for other ones
yeah they could
i mean im only dealing with two-valued boolean algebras
so only containing {0,1}
oh but ig (x')' = x
cant we just say like
x + x' = 1
Maybe you need associativity first, or maybe it isn't even true
wdym
or is (x')' = x a postulate
nah its not a postulate
it should be proveable
anyways i think its fine
the rest i dont really care about
thanks for the help ill close this now

hey
well we have the following problem that i got wrong apparently
the first matrix is
$A = \begin{bmatrix}
2 & 0 \
0 & 3
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
second matrix is $B = \begin{bmatrix}
1 & 1 \
1 & 0
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
the task is to calculate C = BA(B)^-1 and to determine C^20
the way i did it is i realized that B * B^-1 is just matrix I which is
$I = \begin{bmatrix}
1 & 0 \
0 & 1
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
BAB^-1 is not equal to ABB^-1 in general
Matrix multiplication does not commute
B * A and B^-1 and multiply
yes
there is a problem tho
i couldn't get B ^-1
i know that B * B^-1 has to equal I , but when i calculate it, it doesnt give me the right result
i will do my calculations again i guess
for matrix A * B i got
$AB = \begin{bmatrix}
2 & 2 \
3 & 0
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
Again, A * B is irrelevant
it's not
It's B * A * B^-1
i could multiply them 2 by 1
You are multiplying B * A and B^-1
Not A * B and B^-1
i am doing it by steps
wait..
$BA = \begin{bmatrix}
2 & 3 \
2 & 0
\end{bmatrix}$
true
snow
its not the same
now i have to find out B^-1
$B^{-1} = \begin{bmatrix}
0 & 1 \
1 & -1
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
$C = \begin{bmatrix}
3 & -1 \
0 & 2
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
So C = BAB^-1
For demonstration, expand (BAB^-1)^3
And see what happens
You should notice a pattern
you want me to calculate C^3?
So that you can predict what C^20 is going to look like
shouldnt i calculate like C^2?
Just do it and you will see what I am talking about
because 20 does not divide to 3
I am not telling you to calculate C^3 for the sake of calculating C^20
yes i know
I want you to see the general rule for calculating C^n by first trying out some small values of n
$C^3 = \begin{bmatrix}
27 & -19 \
0 & 8
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
So what I meant is noticing the following
\begin{align*} C^3 = \left(BAB^{-1}\right)^3 = BAB^{-1}BAB^{-1}BAB^{-1} = BAAAB^{-1} = BA^3B^{-1} \end{align*}
Can you see guess what $C^{20}$ is based on this?
A Lonely Bean
Yeah
And you can easily calculate A^20
Because the only nonzero entries are on the diagonal
Making $A^{20} = \begin{bmatrix} 2^{20} & 0 \ 0 & 3^{20} \end{bmatrix}$
A Lonely Bean
yes i just calculated it
so now i have to multiply B*A^20
then multiply the matrix with B^-1
and that is the result
correct?
$BA^{20} = \begin{bmatrix}
2^{20} & 3^{20} \
2^{20} & 0
\end{bmatrix}$
snow
snow
and this indeed checks out to be the right result.
well, thank you so much for helping me out!!
You are welcome

whats the domain of fractional part function and -1
y = 1- {x}
the domain of a function is the set of all numbers that the function accepts as input.
so you are asking what the range of y = 1 - {x} is?
like previously a good samaritan told me that it lies between -1 and 1 but when i do it in paper i dont get it
you were told that the range is [-1, 1]?
this is incorrect even if you fiddle with the endpoint inclusions.
yeah wait i will send a pic
it was about domain of arccos
uncrop please
not about the range of function inside
let me get this straight obviously fractional part lies in 0 to 1
so 1-fractional part lies in -1 to 0 right?

I know that for a cubic $$ax^3+bx^2+cx+d$$ the cubic determinant $\Delta_3$ is given by $$\Delta_3=18abcd+b^2c^2-4ac^3-4b^3d-27a^2d^2$$
kheerii
if $\Delta_3>0$, the cubic has 3 unique roots
kheerii
if $\Delta_3<0$ the cubic has 1 real root and 2 complex conjugate roots

could someone help me understand this question?
I think they ask you to write $\frac{t^4+t^2+1}{(t^2+1)(t^2+4)^2}$ as some sum $\frac{p(t)}{t^2+1}+\frac{q(t)}{(t^2+4)^2}$ for some polynomials $p(t)$ and $q(t)$.
Crystopher
oh
At least it is something like that, you can find more info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition in case I'm wrong.
In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator.The im...
Is this correct?
FUCK MY WIFI
FFS
also how the hell do i solve this using partial fraction
It may be correct but you used x instead of t as a variable. I'm guessing that you need some substitution in the integral and then somehow use partial decomposition on the substitution.
alrrr thanks
got any idea for this?
u = sqrt(x) maybe
right now I'm trying substituting $t=x^{\frac{1}{6}}$, so that $\sqrt{x}=t^3$ and $\sqrt[3]{x}=t^2$. Let's see how it goes.
Crystopher
Yh thats a smart one
got any hints for this one too?
tried substituting u = cosx
but i just ended up with smth harder
try u=sin x instead
dx will be 1/6 x^-5/6 ?
I noticed that, this is how I did:
$dt=\frac{1}{6}x^{\frac{-5}{6}}dt\iff\frac{6dt}{x^{\frac{-5}{6}}}=dx\iff \frac{6dt}{t^{-5}}=dx$
Crystopher
Although that made using partial decomposition a bit wacky.
it says evaluate soo
It gets wacky because the numerator gets to have greater degree than the denominator, basically rendering decomposition useless.
yes
It is easier to perform polynom division instead.
@raw sluice Has your question been resolved?
which one are you not able to do?
3?
for that one, substitute $u=\sqrt[6]{x}$ so that $\sqrt{x}=u^3$ and $\sqrt[3]{x}=u^2$and then use partial fractions
kheerii
bro i think my brain froze
do we need to do long divsion for t^3/(t-1)
wtf
why the hell is this q messing with my basic maths knowledge
What's wrong, care to show how is the division going?
i got it finally
now onto this
god
it has been 1 hour already
wtf
In that one you will actually need decomposition.
yes
btw
q
how do u konw to sub u = sinx
instead of u = cosx
is it all try and error?
or u look at the denominator
I just looked at denominator and numerator and realized that if u = sin x then the numerator would conveniently disappear, leaving also a polynomial in the denominator.
Which would be fit to the theme of decomposition. If I wasn't 'alert' about decompositions it probably would fly over my head to do that substitution.
these are some impressive skills tbh, thanks a lot for helping me btw
yw
any ideas for this one?
i tried subs t= x^2, t^2 = x^4 and so on
Got this far
and i thought by partial fractions was gonna be the easiest under integration💀
Try factorizing the denominator in terms of x as is, then decompose the fraction in x.
Like that?
Ye, but you dont need Ax nor Cx, else the degree of the numerator would be 3.
But the problem then becomes that x^1 cannot be directly expressed in the decomposition...
shouldnt the degree of the dominator be less by 1 from the nominator
True, then lets do as you stated.
What do you mean?
$\frac{Ax+B}{x^2+1}+\frac{Cx+D}{x^2+2}=\frac{x^3(C+A)+x^2(D+B)+x(2A+C)+(2B+D)}{(x^2+1)(x^2+2)}$
Crystopher
oh so i expand
Ye, that should make an equation system you can solve for A, B, C and D.
damnn alr thanks lemme see what i can do now
okay
im finally done with maths for today
thats enough
time for electricity

is there a nice little notation to use when showing that you're finding the perpendicular gradient of a line
for example, i have y=2x+2 and i want to show that i am doing the perpendicular line (y=-1/2x+c)
instead of just clumsily writing "perpendicular"
Well, you use the formula m1*m2=-1 (m=gradient) when two lines are perpendicular to each other
So there's nothing clumsy or wrong in writing this
oh ok i didnt know about that formula i was just taught it was the negative reciprocal of the first gradient
thanks

Is $\int_{a}^{b} -f(x) , dx = \int_{b}^{a} f(x) , dx$?
Bla
I think the rule is $-\int_{a}^{b} f(x) , dx = \int_{b}^{a} f(x) , dx$, but $\int_{a}^{b} -f(x) , dx = -\int_{a}^{b} f(x) , dx$, so ultimately yes, $\int_{a}^{b} -f(x) , dx = \int_{b}^{a} f(x) , dx$
Crystopher
Okay and is there a short proof or intuition for this?
Ah wait you can prove it by the fundamental theorem of calculus right
Yes, you can also just think about how you partition [a,b]:
when considering the Riemann sum you multiply by $\Delta x = x_{i+1} - x_i.$ If you wanna go from b to a, you instead have to multiply by $x_i-x_{i+1} = -\Delta x.$

which side is correct?
u do know that u could just take minus one out of the integral sign right?
that makes life easier
u should and like for the partial fractions i recommend just equating the thing as in you could common out x and write x(A+B)and then a plus b would equal to -1
then b-2a would be equal to -7
yes
to find out a and b basically thats an easier way
chill listen
the second step on the left
hi
x+7/(x+2)(x-2)
<@&286206848099549185>
yeah take out the minus sign
!redir
This channel is only for on-topic discussion. Please take casual conversation to #discussion or #chill.
<@&268886789983436800>
then it would just be x plus 7 on the numerator
out of the integral sign i mean
you can take constants in and out of the integral sign btw if u didnt know
yes
bob420
now x plus 7 / (x+1)(x-2) = A/x+1 + B/x+2
now do the lcm thing and cancel out the denominators on each side
yeah so now cancel out the denominators
now you can common out x and write x(a+b)-2a+b = x+7
yeah its easier right?
now integrate
dont forget the mins sign in the integral
yes sir
whats wrong
no
i think the sites bugged prolly the final answer should be 2ln(x+1)-3ln(x-2)
or did u write x^2-x-2
in the denominator ?
oh u did
nvm'
its ln x-2
its not wrong chill
try another integral simulator and see if the answers match up

So i'm reading this paper that uses the MAP Elites method for the evolution of flying machines in minecraft.
As far as I understand, it uses a multidimensional space where each dimension is a characterization of the solution, it then spreads out bins in that space, and those bins are occupied with the best performer that happens to have these characterizations.
What I don't understand is how we can make graphs such as the one attached (Where ME.C, ME.CN and ME.PO are different dimensions), where different dimensions are compared to one another. Since any bin will have the characterization of all dimensions, how can a dimension have a higher rate of succesful runs ?So i'm reading this paper that uses the MAP Elites method for the evolution of flying machines in minecraft.

Mayb I wasn't clear, but i'm rather asking how they made them in the first place ? Any solution in the archive would be on each dimension, so I don't get how they say "x solution is from y dimension"

@cosmic torrent Do I need to use b^2-4ac
Natural7
For the question a no , just expand the equation .
There , remark that , we know that I is tangent to C . This means the solution of our equation is one and its belongs both C and I .
$B \in C$ and $\in I$ , then try to find the value of x using $\delta = -(4k-26)^2-20(k^2-10k+34-r^2)$ use the positive solution .

@void sand Has your question been resolved?
hint: does row reduction change the determinant?
how?
hint 2: how do you find the det of an upper triangular matrix?
Swapping two rows reverses the sign of detA, scaling a row by c scales the determinant by c, adding a multiple of one row to another does nothing
Take the product of the diagonal entries
oh nvm you already did 20
what do you mean?
What didn't you understand
i don't see why that helps
Which part
equating coefficients to f(t)
Doing this will help you see why deg(q) < n
So try it for 2,3
i've done both 2 and 3 already
i can see why it's true
but not how to prove it lol idk
well yes, but i cant figure out how to do induction here, as stated before
it's not clear to me how the induction hypothesis is to be used
When you proved n=3 case, that depends on the n=2 case
Then it's the same pattern for n to n+1
did it?
It can if you do it that way
i just laplace expanded the 3x3 case
i didnt see the 3x3 case being dependent on the 2x2 case...
Well find a way to squeeze the n=2 case in there

hii im a bit confused of how the first expression transformed into the next, can someone explain the gist to me? thank you sm! 🥲
adding and subtracting -x+1
is this the concept of complete squares?
or is it different
oh i dont think so cuz the numberator is not in the form ax^2+bx+c but i could be wrong
but the denominator is
just a bit confused why it was applied on the numberator and when do i know i should do it
No it's not square completion.
Just adding and subtracting something, as Ann pointed out.
is it an option when the degree of the numerator and the denominator is the same?
I feel like you'd do synthetic division in those cases for a general solution, but it's usually equivalent to adding and subtracting something either way.
thank you so much!!
I don't think completing the square would get you anywhere in a situation like this, but methods for solving an integral may vary drastically even when changing something small, so it's possible that some integrals out there do benefit from completing the square. In this case, it serves no purpose.

I'll ask about something very simple but this confuses me. So, I've been tasked with the proof of R's completeness by our measure theory professor.
What I did is - I showed every Cauchy Sequence is bounded, then I used Bolzano-Weierstrass Theorem to get a convergent subsequence.
That subsequence converges to some x. I claim that the original sequence also converges at the same point x.
Now I continue like this -
The prof now says this is incorrect, and instead I need to use the triangular inequality such that we get 4 different terms instead of just two. But I don't see the error. When asked, he said to find it myself.
I've been trying to spot the error ever since, but am unsuccessful.
N2 is false
You've shown convergence of the subsequence x_n_k, not x_n itself
So as you wrote it, such an N2 possibly doesn't exist
Wait, I don't get it. The subsequence also goes upto countably many terms right?
You mean I'll have an N_2 such that for all k >= N_2 i'll have |x_n_k - x| < eps, not n
This is correct yes
So first, use the fact that your original sequence is cauchy

2x/x-2 > 1
What is your question?
solve x
No I think we meant to do something else
This assumes that x - 2 > 0
Right
If x - 2 < 0 then the sign will change. So you need to split your work into cases
How do I make this in big white text
x>-2 means (-2, infinity)
$\frac{2x}{x - 2} > 1$
ℝ ⊇ Mikkel ∉ 𝐵(ℝ)
What?
0 then?
x+1>-1
no bro wyd
2x/x-2 -1 >0
Yes bro
It is incorrect
The subtract is wrong
I don’t know
x+2>0
No
like can’t we just say
it cannot be 2
wait
Hmm
Fuck
the x can be -
<@&286206848099549185>
Cus if x was -
It could be
0
Which would mean
Lower than -2
x-2<0
No
No that should be correct
x+2<0
$$ \frac{2x}{x-2} >1$$
Check at what point funtion is undefined(denominator is 0 ) then subtract it from R
$$ Range = R-{..}$$
Snow
ok so at what value of x the denominator is 0?
2
yes
now add it on a number line .
Add numbers that are not defined in the function like this:
2x or x+2?
2x-x+2= x+2
Hmm I suppose -2 and 2 > 0
I don’t understand
It’s meant to be -2 and 2 < 0
Also
so
hmm
at negative value function is defined so its not -2 🥴
At x=2, denominator would be 0 that is undefined so the range of this function is
R-{2} (all real number except 2 )
What do you mean it’s not -2
x-2>0
x>-2
x<2
x<-2
is this IxI ? or x
function belongs (infinity , 1) U (3, infinity )
ahh i see
You forgot the sign rule
When we shift a constant from LHS to RHS then their sign is also changed
$$ x-2 >0$$
$$ x > 2$$
Snow
No i mean modulus of x?
then this should be right answer to your question
if its not modulus of x

i see i made a mistake
I accidently took it as ** > 0 not >1**

lemme me re-do it again
$$ 2x/x-2 > 1$$
$$ \frac{2x}{x-2} >1$$
If the value of x is less than 2 then it would be an undefined function and if the value of x is more than -2
it would be bigger than 1
$$ R \in (-2 , 2)$$
$$ 2x/x-2 > 1$$
$$ \frac{2x}{x-2} >1$$
If the value of x is less than 2(max value) then it would be an undefined function and if the value of x is less than -2 then its a smaller value then 1
$$ R \in (-2 , 2)$$
Snow
If you put $x = \infty$ here then it would be a value less than 1 bc of denominator
Snow
right
yea ._.

It doesn’t matter. Your solution is saying that T can be equal to sqrt(2s+c_1) for any real c_1, or it can be equal to -sqrt(2s+c_2) for any real c_2. That’s equivalent to saying T is equal to plus or minus sqrt(2s+c) for any real c

a, b are real numbers. Knowing that a - b = pi, show that cosa * cosb <= 0
a=π+β
b=α-π
How are you typing pi
im greek
Greek
No way
That’s such an advantage lmao
yee sure sned me whatever ya need
αβγδεζ
and what do you do after?
Wait so on your keyboard you have English and Greek characters?
Yes
wait lemme write it on a piece of paper so icam do
Im greek too
alright
if u have a keyboard u can hold alt and press 227 on keypad
to get pi
αβγδεζηθικλμνξοπρστυφχψω
other number combinations give other characters
if it's <= 0, then either one is 0 or exclusively one is negative
cant they just both be 0?
i mean negative
so now we have $\cos(b)\cdot\cos(b+\pi)$
artemetra
and now i apply the product to sum formula?
or?..
but that doesnt really help no?
idk
yeeee is $cos(\pi+b)$ and its negative cuz it is in the 3rd quadrant
Prime Minister
yeah
so its negativeand at most 0
idk what formula is that but $\cos(x+\pi) = -\cos(x)$
artemetra
its not a formula its just that the cosine is negative in the 2nd and 3rd quadrant and positive in the 1st and 4th

Two people start walking from P at the same time. One person walks due west at 2.5 km/h and the other walks on a bearing of 250 degrees at 3km/h How far apart are the walkers after 4 hours?
Is there something wrong with my diagram?
What did you do after this? I think u might be assuming the person walking west is directly above the person walking at 250 degrees
I just used cosine rule for it
what did u get
i got some negative number
Oh wait i put it into the calculator wrong sorry

i dont get this... arent matrix entries numbers, why do they say each matrix entry is a differentiable function..
matrices are defined on vector spaces
$\mathbb{R}^n$ is the usual vector space (the number entries), but differentiable functions form a vector space too (its pretty easier easy to check actually)

How to solve it?
what are a,b,c. Postive? Real?
Did you find the discriminant
Not given
I thought that if the right side is 0
Then (x-a)(x-b) will be 0
Here x should be positive a,b
Same as c and d
so all a,b,c,d will be positive
And equal to a,b,c
Okay I think maybe just expand the entire expression out and use the quadratic formula/discriminant
What is d
I'm not sure what d is but I would just expand it out and look at the discriminant
🫣
There is no d in the question
Looks like you made it up
Ohh yes
Discriminant will be
√{4(a+b+c)^2 - 4(ab+bc+ca)}
I got this
Are you there guys?
I am stucked
thats just 1/2((a+b)²+(b+c)²+(a+c)²)

@weary mesa Has your question been resolved?
first of all according to the reminder theroam i.e (ax - b) being a factor for f(x), f(b/a) = 0
2z-3 is factor for the function where a is a constant [We have to figure out the value of 'a' first to express the function]
so f(3/2) = 0
Hence get the value of 'a' (It'd be -1)
Now having one factor (2z-3) , we have to express the function in such order that we can get extra factors
like this->
f(z) = 2z^3 - z^2 - z - 3
= 2z^3 - 3z^2 + 2z^2 -3z + 2z - 3
= z^2(2z -3) + z (2z -3) + 1 (2z-3)
= (2z-3) ( z^2 + z + 1)
Hence the other factor for the function is (z^2 + z +1)

basically the slope of the curve is the derivative
they are asking you to find the maximum value of the derivative of y in the domain (-2,2)
@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?
What's the derivative of the function that's given?
you have to minimize that on the interval (-2, 2)
more negative is indeed better

In implicit differentiation, can we just separately calculate the derivatives of x and y (eg. by power rule?)

guys a elementary doubt
what does 3 number a,b,c in ratio represent?
a : b : c
can we form individual relations based on them?
a : b , b : c, a : c
can we break them like this
its one number in relation to another, yes you can split them
yes, you can drop one or more numbers from a three-way or higher ratio
thank u
so in the end we get 3 seperate equations
right?
i mean you can get 3 separate equations from it yes. the 3 you mentioned above. but of those 3, any 2 is able to represent all the information

Damn
well because the noncommmon factors are not overlapping, we can split ab into two parts
let f = a without noncommon factors, g = b without... and x and y be the oncommon factors we have 500=fgxy, and xy=20
which means the common factors multiply to 500/20 = 25
and because they are common factors, we have 2 of them; that is f = g so f^2 = 25 and therefore f = 5
I quite did not get it a litte, missed in this part ngl
we can factor a (and b) into the bits which are unique to a and the bits which aren't
yeah pretty much
a = fx
for f being all the noncommon factors and x being the common ones
then for b = gx, g being noncommon and we have x again because they are the same as for a
then fgx^2 = 500 and fg = 20
now i get it a lil
gud
okay now i get it
