No I didn't think so
is there a way the pascal triangle's made?
Not that I know of
It's literally just that
That's the question
I think its some form for terms but I'm not sure
I'm hoping someone here knows
what they're trying to get at is that there is a pattern to the numbers of pascals triangle
and the pattern is so simple that you can construct the entire triangle yourself
do you see anything about how for any particular row, it relates to the row above it?
Yeah I guess

im so slow i dont get how these problems work
and ik this is the easiest shit i just have no idea whats going on
Nope
Try to break down each of the terms such that most of the terms have the power of a multiple of 2
For ex in the first one, x³ can be written as x² * x
Sulphur
Similarly do the same for 112 and multiply em both

Hey so my physics professor showed us this example problem on half life and I’m trying to understand why in steps 2 to 3 the t 1/2 moved to the numerator
step 2 is what's wrong
when they rearrange to solve for n, they should be multiplying both sides by t_(1/2) and it should end up in the numerator
so when the professor was algebraically rearranging to solve for t, he should've arrived directly at step 3

Given the point $M(3,3,-2)$ and 2 lines [
\begin{cases}
d_1:\frac{x-1}1=\frac{y-2}3=\frac{z}1\
d_2:\frac{x+1}{-1}=\frac{y-1}2=\frac{z-2}4
\end{cases}
]
The line $d$ passes through $M$ and intersects $d_1,d_2$ at A and B respectively. Calculate the length of AB
Have you acknowledged the status between d1 and d2
About whether they intersect or not
they seem not to be parallel, nor perp
How about askew or intersect?
well?
Line d falls on the book
hm, i have a theory
2 lines intersect means they are coplanar, yes?
perhaps the line that intersect both planes is the intersection line of the 2 planes?
which should be the cross prod of the vector from A to d1 and vector from A to d2
Find two random points O P on line d1 and get MO MP vectors
Do outer multiplication to get the plane
sure
Find the intersect between the plane and d1; apply the same idea to d2
which yields the normal vector of the plane having line d1 and d?
You’ll get two coordinates
yes, it yields the normal vector of the plane
alright wait
coordinates?
you mean the vectors or the intersection of d and d1?
No, I was referring to the coordinates of O and P
oh sure
oh wait
even if you didnt, i already found it
the direction vector of the line d is (2, 1, -2)
i basically find 2 points O, P on d1, find vector MO and MP and cross prod them to yield the normal vector of the plane containing d and d1
which i got (-7, 4, -5)
repeating the same process for d2, i got (-8, 6, -5)
cross prod those 2 normal vectors i got (2, 1, -2), which is the direction vector of d
seems to be correct too
found it, AB = 3
thanks!

A boat flows upstream and downstream in a 40km long river taking a total of of 4 hours 30 minutes. Given the time for the boat to flow downstream for 5km is equal to the time for the boat to flow upstream for 4km. Calculate the speed of the stream.
oh got it
let x be downstream speed, y be upstream speed
i would have a system of equations that i can solve

HI this is an example given to me by my teacher. This is for a gantt chart creating. The red Task name are the task and the duration and underneath is the requirement to do the task. I dont quite get the part when predecessors come into play. Like for example with the detailed inspection it takes 2 days to complete it and the requirement underneath goes over 2 days. I tried to make it make sense and its just not making sense for me if someone can explain it to me in details on how they got those numbers pls im just so lost rn

presumably, for "Detailed Inspections", all 3 of those can be done on the same day. or "Inspect radiation barriers" will be both days, and "Inspect equipment" the first day and "Update power" the second day? not too sure. it's a bit confusing
you can run 6/7/8 all at the same time taking you maximum 2 days
the only predecessor is that you completed 3/4

Still can't figure this out
try multiplying by (sqrt(x+64)+8)/(sqrt(x+64)+8)
are you familiar with conjugate method for evaluating limits
are you familiar with l'hopital's rule?
Can't use it
start by doing this then
you are missing a 7 but yes that's right
I see
this process is called multiplying by the conjugate btw
Ok
so the important thing here is that a conjugate for cube roots also exists
the reason the square root conjugate works is because of identity like a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
to use conjugate for cube roots, use the identity a^3 - b^3 = (a - b)(a^2 + ab + b^2)
I see but how
consider that in your square root case, a = sqrt(x + 64) and b = 8
you multiplied by (a + b)/(a + b) to get a^2 - b^2 in the denominator, simplifying the singularity
try to see how this is similar for the cube root case
(you can try to identify what a and b are, then identify what conjugate you should multiply by to simplify)
so the expression you're dealing with is (cbrt(x + 27) - 3)
I see
say that a = cbrt(x + 27) and b = 3
now using this identity, you can find the conjugate you have to multiply by
ah congrats (i'm assuming you got the correct answer)
can you show me what you have
hm it's good progress
though it looks like you cube rooted the a and b terms
recall that when we have (a - b) where a = cbrt(x + 27) and b = 3, we aren't cube rooting a and b to find the conjugate
(we aren't cubing them either, our goal is to multiply by (a^2 + ab + b^2)/(a^2 + ab + b^2))
so what you currently have on your paper is incorrect
going back to the previous line, perform this operation
this
you multiply by (cbrt(x + 27)^2 + 3cbrt(x + 27) + 9)/(cbrt(x + 27)^2 + 3cbrt(x + 27) + 9)

Could you determine the intersection between a line and a plane using parametric equations for both?
you'll need to use some other parameter than λ for the second one, but other than that you can set x, y, z equal and solve the system of linear equations for the 3 parameters

for some reason the answer key says 4n^2 over 8n^3 not 4n^7 over 8n^3.
that is the answer key
the following lines are consistent with it being n^7

The exam consists of 4 multiple-choice questions, each with two answers. All questions must be answered. A correct answer earns 3 points, while a wrong one deducts -2 points. Total points cannot be negative. The probability of choosing the correct answer is 50%.
a) What is the probability that a student scores more than 3 points when guessing the answers?
b) 250 students take the exam. What is the distribution of the sample mean X? What is the probability P(X>=3)?
c) 28% of the students guess all the questions correctly and score a full 12 points. Among those who don't guess, 18% receive full points. What is the probability that a student who scored 12 points guessed the answers?
I got the a) which is 0.3125
Not sure about the b) tho
I'm using CLT at the moment (not sure if I should use it on this) and my result is 0.999, so about 100%
Somehow CLT sounds wrong because if you got all 4 questions wrong you’d get 0 marks not -8
It doesn’t look very symmetrical
It doesn’t sound like to me the limiting distribution would be symmetrical
You can't get -8. if the sum of the result is negative its automatically 0
Yeah, but there’s just as big a chance to get 4 wrong as 4 right
I’m not too sure how to do this question but I have a feeling that CLT sounds wrong
yyeeeaaah, should I do normal distribution without CLT?
Calc shows 0.5910 for the probability
I'll go with that. But how about the c)? Baye's theorem?
P(student is a guesser) x P(guesser gets all right) + P(student is not a guesser) x P(student gets all right)
I hope someone can correct me if I'm wrong

would i just find the total volume when the height is 8
then substitute the 8 for 2, to solve the volume when the water is only at 2inches
and then just do 2in volume/8in volume?
Do this
Yes
How many volumes of this cone fit into this cone
but would that work? as the base is at the top, meaning if you pour only 2 inches, wont the base be different?
like wont the radius be different since its a cone?
if at 8 inches the radius is at 12, meaning every inch up increases the radius by 1.5, would ineed to change the equation to oatach the new radius at 2 inces? which would be 3?
im only thinking this because the base is at the top with the apex downward
if the base was actually on the bottom then the radius is the same
right?
@final granite Has your question been resolved?
yes radius would be different at different heights

I don’t get what to do at all…
try to relate sin and tan
What does that mean?
find an equation with sin and tan that's always true
Ohhh got it
yes
but you can relate cos with sin
so it's only sin and tan
Like 1-cos^2 is sin^2, so tan^2 = sin^2/(1-cos^2)?
1-sin^2 yes
Angle? Sorry, I still don’t get it
so we have tan^2(t) = sin^2(t)/(1 - sin^2(t)) for any angle t right?
Yea
Something that isn’t 90°?
artemetra
um sure
let's not worry about the denominator being zero
for now
look at you are trying to evaluate, it's sin(...)
Okay, but what am I trying to do with this question?
I’m not sure I understand the goal of it
Like what I’m trying to solve
basically write sin( arctan x ) as something involving x without trig functions
like x/(x^2 + 4) or something
Okay, so if we’re relating sin with tan, how does that eliminate trig functions?
Ok I kinda get that
seems natural cuz there's a sin and tan
So is there a way to apply relations between functions to eliminate each other?
yes
…can I get a hint?
t = arctan x
So… I replace the t in the relation with arctan x?
yes
sometimes you just gotta try things
So now it’s sin^2(arctanx)/1-sin^2(arctan x) = tan^2(arctan x)
yes
Isn’t that more complicated than the beginning? Or is there something that needs to be simplified?
Without bringing in any other trig functions?
yes
can you simplify tan(arctan x)
Oh that’s just x right?
yes of course
So sin(arctan x) = x*sqrt(1-sin^2(arctan x))
true
I can simplify the sqrt part right?
Can I not?
no i don't see how
To make the function into terms of x
Didn’t it not need trig functions?
I meant the 1-sin^2 in the square root
what ru trying to do rn
I want to turn it into smt in relation to x?
ok what about it
Doesn’t it have sin in it?
true
Or do I not need to get rid of it?
no you can't
Ok, so then am I done?
So then I’m not done……
alright u want full marks
go ahead
Uh so I know that sin(arctan x) = x*sqrt(1-sin^2(arctan x)), and i need to eliminate the sin stuff on the right. Do I need to keep on isolating the sin(arctan x) side or is it possible to move things around?
I think I messed up somewhere
Um are you online?
should be = x^2
tan what
um yeah
ummmm 😂
….is it not?
no it just means we've reached a tautology and there's no contradiction
so everything is consistent
What’s a tautology?
Oh… trivial sounds nice :)))
okay but we haven't progressed
So what does that mean for my original problem?
cuz you need to have a goal in mind
ok think of it this way
let u = sin (arctan x)
we have u^2/(1-u^2) = x
we just want u in terms of x
Ok, so I multiply both sides by the denominator and then move stuff around?
yea sure
yassss
Ty wait so is this the answer?
… sqrt(x/(x+1))?
yes
Rlly? This is actually the end? Omg tysm
np lol
good idea
How can I mark my question as solved?

How do I do that?
you could multiply top and bottom by sqrt(1+x)
Ohhhh ok got it
cool
Like this?
erm almost
What else do I have to do?
should be sqrt(x)

Is it possible to graph a simplified revolution of a planet around the sun as a sinusoidal function? the diagram below shows what we have to work with, and I am unsure of what the x and y would have to represent as variables in order to make a proper sinusoidal function
we also have the fact that the period of revolution for the planets are (rounded) 225 and 88 days
you can use that fact that period = 360/k
and solve for ‘k’
and make a sinusoidal function with that
ohh makes sense
the instructions for this task want us to define what the x and y axis would be representing before we actually create the function
i tried doing x=days passed and y=position from starting point in degrees but that doesn't work for sinusoidal
as well as x=degrees and y=days of cycle but it makes the same mistake
X should be days passed and y should be position as u said
cool cool
the issue comes when we get to a full cycle completed, as the position just either rises continually not creating the wave for a sinusoidal function or if you reset to 0 instead of 360, it suddenly drops at 225 days for venus and 88 for mercury
are u given any other info other then the period of revolution of the planets?
that's all the info we have
sorry, we are allowed to use the internet to find other information if we need it, but I wasnt sure what other info I would be missing
that I need to make it work as a sinusoidal function
here is the small table of values I have currently made
i am so sorry, I just realized that i misheard the instructions as they were told to us verbally. the start point is not a line, but a dot on each circle representing the revolution meaning that I can use height compared to that start point instead of degrees
i appreciate your help so much, but now that I know that information I am able to complete the problem myself! thank you!

I forgot this completely, i thought i had to add 7 and 2, 9 and then divided 45 by 9
but after that i forgot
You will have to consider the parts 7k and 2k where k is a non zero constant
Then 7k+2k = 9k = 45
@ebon aurora Do you remember ?
Ok so see
since its a ratio
we can consider the two parts to be 7k and 2k
@ebon aurora Ok?
yep
Now total length is 45
So 9k = 45
Or we get k = 5
Now the length of two parts were 7k and 2k so we can found them
Undeestood ?
Yeahh

How do i go about solving this
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
you’ve got the answer
u set each of the factors equal to 0 and solve for x
because
and where does that extra x^2 go
x^2 = 0, swuarerrooot both sides x = 0
the x^2 is 0 at 0

Is there any “easy” proof for a specific case of the Euler’s theorem? I just want to prove that $a^{16}\equiv1\pmod{17}$ for all $a$ coprime to $17$ without going through the main proof, since there are some concepts I can’t use yet.
BeeReallyYum
you can factor a^16-1 quite a bit
and then you "only" need to show that for every number 1 to 16 one of the factors is a multiple of 17
which is still quite a bit of work tho
!xy
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
probably better to consider -8 to 8 actually
then you only need to check 8 numbers
I just want to show that if $2023\mid a^{2023}-a,$ then $a$ is not $4,5,$ or $31.$ (quite an odd problem I know)
BeeReallyYum
So I’m considering the problem mod 17
and thats the actual original problem? or is that also already another formulation

Hello everyone, I'm currently taking a college math course.
This question is currently stumping me as I can understand how to work out the math but the actual logic of how dividing 117 by 4 1/3 gave the missing answer is confusing me.
117 milligrams of cholesterol -> 4 and 1/3 of milk
x cholesterol in 1 cup of milk
then you multiply
So if i'm understanding,
117 = 4 and 1/3
x = 1
but what am i multiplying?
Miliski
I appreciate your effort but the logic of it still just doesn't make sense to me, guess this is just another "it is what it is" math thing for me that causes headaches lol

WHAT IS THIS QUESTIONN
what about it
its hard
lol
i dont know where to even start to be honest i tried deriving the original function and substituting X for 0
but didnt end up anywhere
well you know that if the curve intersects the tangent line at (0,1)
the point (0,1) exists on the curve
yeah
well okay
since there is a turning point at (-1,-3)
you know that p'(-1) = 0
since the derivative equals 0 at a turning point
so from that we get p'(x) = 3ax^2+ 2bx + c
then p'(-1) = 3a - 2b + c
3a - 2b + c = 0
you also know that p(-1) = -3 since that point exists on the graph
so p(-1) = -a + b - c + 1
-a + b - c + 1 = -3
- a + b - c = -4
that first thing is meant to be a negative sign idk what happened
sorry give me a second to process that
ok
i understand how you got there
but for the question the answer sheet says to find the individual values of a,b and c
yes
for the third equation, use the info of the tangent line at (0, 1)
you need to solve a system of 3 equations
no. you are given the equation of the tangent line at x=0. so you know the slope tangent to p(x) at x=0. i.e., you know p'(0)
so p'(0)=3x+1
3x+1
a+b+c+d
have you learned how to find the slope of a line?
no
oh
the slope at x=0 equals the slope of the line
you're saying p'(0) is 3a + 2b + c?
...no
yes, p'(0) = c
so the slope of the line =c
yes
so c is 1
C is 3x+1?
the equation of the line is 3x + 1. what is its slope?
-3
no
C is -3
I looked on my calculator and counted
I think you should review slopes: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra/x2f8bb11595b61c86:linear-equations-graphs/x2f8bb11595b61c86:slope/v/introduction-to-slope

log2((0)+4)+1
would give 1+4 =5
+1
=6
(0,6) for yn intercept
or am I missunderstanding htat
log_2(0+4) = 2
wait how
log_2(x) is basically asking what power of 2 equals x.
Yes.
Okay I see
Just double checking if I am doing that right
yeah then +1 on the outside right
Yes.
Okay perfect

Basic mathematical proof question I think but proof isn't my strong suit
How can you express the area of the bigger square in two ways?
2(a+b) ?
Oh yeah that makes sense

need help to learn these two problems before my exam
the first one is prime factorization the second is GCMF i believe the third one is graphing rational functions
ok
you can help?
what do you mean first one is prime factorization
like you can't factor primes?
bruh
i think im going to use prime factorization on it cause this the reference sheet the teacher gave me
I mean like are you having problems with prime factoring?
yeah i’d like a refresher havent done it inna bit
@fickle sorrel the little tricks like Magic cross all of them are weird, just use middle split or quadratic formula
magic cross? wdym
So how do you expand (x-a)(x-b)
i dont know what that is
You have studied algebra correct
x is a variable and a, b are some unknown constants we are trying to determine
So how do you expand (x-a)(x-b)
which problem is this for
The problem you are working on
number 8?
You don't actually need the prime factorisation but it always good to know
Q10
I don't know what you want to do in Q8
hmm
Do you want the prime factorisation of 22?
is this right?
Yes you can write it like that. I would keep it has it is as the notation is more compact
There should be negative sign
yep
number 10. the other one ignore it my teacher will help ke
No
Just do it the same way as Q8
no dude
factoring polynomails
i dont see why i do that
4 multiplies everything inside parentheses
Exactly
Now factor the inside parenthesis
but how do i know when i need to do that
what is this gcmf or difference of two squares
Because you see the common factor
Of 4x^2-40x+100 is 4
Now
With the inside
U factor it easily
how do i know when i need to do that
As (x-5)^2
Experience and practice
You look for the hcf
And factor out whenevr u can
Also have in mind that
You don’t “have” to do this
It depends on what you wanna achieve
whats the difference between gcf and hcf
same thing
wait guys sorry
Is the same

how do we solve this?
First of all, find aed, we have acd
Yeah so z plus aeb is 105
Now if we see, Chord ab subtends angle AEB
And it also subtends angle y
so y = x = w?
How did you get y = x?
you said itsubtends angle y
Yeah so y = aeb
So from here we got y + z = 105
alright
Now angle bed and edc, are supplementary
So z + y + eda + bdc = 180
But z + y = 105, so eda + bdc ?
Put the value of z + y in this
No, find their sum
=180
Yeah I mean same side of transversal
Look at the parallel lines
how
OHHH
I GOT IT
alright i got that part
i still dont know how to solve eda + bdc + 105 = 180
i feel like it sreally obvious and im stpid
So now see that 20 + eda + y + bdc + 25 = 180
120
