m and n in N*
how do i show that if n and m are coprime, then Z/mZ x Z/nZ is cyclic
what does the CRT say?
it says that x = a mod m and x = b mod n has a unique solution mod mn if m and n are coprime
i.e. Z/mZ x Z/nZ ~ Z/(nmZ)
yes

Hi
This is my working but its vastly different from the answer key
you misinterpreted the notation
sin^-1(x) isn't the same as (sin(x))^(-1)
True
$-1$ is an exception in $\sin^n(x)$ notation, when -1 is used, that indicates the function inverse.

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
@carmine otter Has your question been resolved?
Okay i got to here, how can i simplify the surds within the surd?
firstly should've omit components like that,
and you haven't correctly applied the differentiation property for arcisin(x)
$\dv{x} \sin^{-1}(x) \redneq \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x}} \ \
\dv{x} \sin^{-1}(x) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-x^{\blue{2}}}}$

Hi guys, I need help thinking about ariving at the answers to each of these questions. I need some kind of method
I will be sending the 4 more others shortly
Which type of math is this?
Inductive reasoning
Usually we start by spotting patterns
Then reason towards the conclusion from there
For example
FOr this one
The first block has two balls(solid) on the left and one square on the right
The second block has two balls(solid) on the left and two balls on the right
The third block has two squares on the left and one ball(non-solid) on the right
The third block has a square topped by two balls(solid) on the left and one non-solid ball ont he right
I think A is the answer for this
I think this type of problem doesn't have a method for it
Why?
Please explain that
I think it have 3 patterns
1 is the number of vertices (the image to the left will have 2 less verticles)
2 is projection
3 is the pattern of diagonal line (which is \ | / | \)
I think it is more fun if you try to find it on your own, though.
I did. But I got it wrong and I do not know why
Why do you know it is wrong?
The platform we're using marked it as incorrect.
This is the approach I used ⬇️
- There are black and white arrows
2.The arrows either point left or right
- The black arrows always occupy the first two spaces
- The white ones only occupy the last space
- Onto the first changing pattern:
(a) One arrow is removed on the second block
(b) Two arrows are removed in the third block
C: We expect three arrows to be removed in the fourth block
- Onto the second changing pattern:
(a) Row1 Block1: The leftmost arrow changes direction, the rightmost arrow is removed
(b) Row2 Block1: The middle arrow changes direction.
(c) Row3 Block1: The rightmost arrow changes direction
(a) Row1 Block2: The leftmost arrow changes direction, the rightmost arrow is retrieved
(b) Row2 Block2: The middle arrow is removed.
(c) Row3 Block2: The leftmost arrow is removed, the rightmost arrow changes direction
[Third block goes here]
(a) Row1 Block4: The leftmost arrow is removed, the middle arrow changes direction.
(b) Row2 Block4: The leftmost arrow is removed
(c) Row3 Block4: The middle and rightmost arrows are removed.
I am curious if my answer was correct 😂
The short answer (without looking at other patterns) is supposed to be A because we expect 3 arrows to be missing in that block
But the platform marked it as wrong
It's just so hard to figure out the other patterns 🥲
Yes 😄 💚
Ok, I just chatted with another guy. So let's try that arrow thing 
Wait, is this a new one?
no
This is my reasoning. Pretty hard to spot the pattern
"C: We expect three arrows to be removed in the fourth block". Isn't this enough to choose an answer 😂
I think I found the pattern for this
@polar prism Has your question been resolved?
I don't know what the problem really is. But let's skip it for now shall we?
What is it?
The purpose of this is to balance the scale
Interesting 😄
Each shape (square, circle, hollow circle) has a value so you can use that to balance the scale
Holy cow. You ||fucking|| genius
You know what leave that to me to figure it out
Can you please now help me with...
It is very easy to spot a value for each shape. You should try that first😂
Ok.. just a sec..
Identifying shapes first:
- Solid Circles (Use symbol sc)
- Empty Circles (Use symbol ec)
- Solid Squares (Use symbol ss)
(a) If two solid circles can balance out one solid square, then: 2sc = ss
(b) If two solid circles can balance out two solid circles, then: 2sc = 2sc (which makes sense)
(c) If two solid squares can balance out one empty circle, then: 2ss = ec
(d) If two solid circles + one solid square can balance out one empty circle, then: 2sc + ss = ec
Based on these observations, we need to find an option that fits the pattern.
Lol I'm not sure how to allocate values to the shapes though 🥲
You are complicating it. Just use the solid circle to measure value of each shape
If a square can balance 2 solid circles then 1 square = 2 solid circles
yes
uhh
wait a min
what about the empty cricle?
looks like it weighs more than just two squares
convert square to solid circle
@polar prism Has your question been resolved?
I think the answer is D
makes sense to me, based on the rules
Yeah, that correct
This one
I can't find a pattern to it. But I noticed that the position of telephones never changes so my guess is that F is the answer
Not sure, though
Lemme check that
Yeah... this one's hard
Even if the position of the telephones did not change
I wouldn't understand why F is the answer
Oh wait
I see.. yea F makes sense
So was it correct, though 😂
Considering all the confusion going on, it would make so much sense that the position of the telephone does not change in none of the 9 quandrants
So I concur with F being the answer
Do you have an answer to that question? A guess is just a guess
Honestly I did not have an answer. I'm genuinely impressed you saw about the telephones
I was still trying to count the number of envelopes and voice notes
And it wasn't making sense
Can you help with this one? @zealous fable
Yeah. Let's see that
I had tried to use the analogy of the grey arrows as weak winds and the bold ones as strong winds going either to the west or east
Geography stuff 🙈
But it's a bit of a challenge to see which elements contribute to either outcome
Yeah, it is quite hard
The arrows seem to indicate the direction of transformation or switching between the elements in the boxes. For each arrow, elements are either swapped horizontally or left unchanged depending on the direction. I think the answer could be F
Not sure though
I am wondering about its transformation rule if the rule is applied to the box directly above it. Then you would expect the output after the box gets transformed to be the box to the right of it.
But what about the last one
Like this:
Oh, that just means the box above is transformed with the arrow below to get the box on the right of it.
Ahh, I see
Never thought about it that way though 😄
How did I miss that
Then F would probably not be the answer
We don't know the rule of this yet
!occupied
Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
Damn. The arrow doesn't make any sense
So you can see my predicament
I don't think it is simply swap place because some shape pop up out of nowhere
I've held you here for much longer than I should 🥲
It's probably time to let go
You've helped me more than anyone has, and I genuinely appreciate that 💚
Thank you so much for doing this. Means a lot to me
I will try to go figure it out overnight
Ok. No problem
I think this inductive reasoning is for genius, though 😂
Really? 😄
Our teacher told us that these are widely used in Psychometric tests for Jobs and such
That's interesting to know
Well, then it is a very hard question
😄 But not an impossible one
Alright, I'm closing the session. Thank you so much mate 🙏
Take care 💚

does this work? 
the first ss is the problem, and the next two is my attempt at a proof
How is A bar defined?
it is the closure of A
Union of ?
interior and boundary
Boundary means all the limit points right?
that's not how Lee defined it 
Unionn
yes, it is
Not intersection
Lemme see
I think you have to start by taking a point form x
Not A and the boundary
X can be written as the union of Int A, Ext A, and \partial A
I covered all cases
I showed (I think) that if p is in Int A or \partial A, then p is a limit point
You only have to show the Ext A part
and if it's in Ext A then no
Not required
well, I did it anyways 
Yeah

I am asked to find Fourier series for the given function. I am confused, because when I graph them on desmos it only matches for l = pi. Is it supposed to match only for 1 specific interval or what. I am confused??
@glacial cypress Has your question been resolved?
Well for one you will always need to truncate a Fourier series when plotting them digitally so you expect errors.
You expect bigger errors at the points of discontuity (see Gibbs phenomenon)
However in this case you shouldn't expect it to be too inaccurate, perhaps try plotting more terms, if that doesn't work it's likely you have made a mistake in your calculation
Also considering you have identified where the error has come from, you can probably guess where the error in calculation was
I have tested the coefficients with online calculators and they are correct. Maybe there is some logic that I do not understand and It's probably something to do with the interval or the period
w.e. I just don't geit

Nabil is writing a science fiction novel that takes place in another
galaxy. In her galaxy, all the planets travel in an elliptical orbit
around their star. The majority of the plot of Nabil’s story takes
place on the planet Tanus which orbits a star named Ini. The
length of Tanus’ major axis is 150 million miles and the length of
its minor axis is 75 million miles. The star Ini is located at a
focus of the elliptical orbit.
Now, write an equation that models the movement of Tanus around its star.
i'm not sure if im doing this right but heres what i have so far
so
a=75 because major axis is 150
b= 37.5 because the minor axis is 75
so 75^2= 5625
and 37.5^2= 1406.25
rounds to 1406?
which would give me
x^2/ 5625 + y^2/ 1406.25 =1
is this correct?

<@&286206848099549185>
are h and k zero?
oh no i forgot
wait how do i find those
I am not entirely sure if this is correct, but h and k are used in the offset of circle formula
basically h, and k are used to determine the circle's position on a graph
if the elipse is centered on the position 0,0 then h and k are zero

How’s it not c
You need to take the 1/3 out first.
The issue is the original expression you have is not in the form $$\frac{1}{3}(x^2 - k^2),$$ but rather $$\frac{1}{3}x^2 - k^2$$
Azyrashacorki
You must force the factorization
So that it can be written as $$\frac{1}{3}(x^2-k^2)$$ and $k$ won't be $2$.
Azyrashacorki
So -1/3k^2
Yeah well if you compare the terms, you'll have $\frac{1}{3}x^2 - 2 = \frac{1}{3}x^2 - \frac{1}{3}k^2$.
So you have to solve for k in that
Azyrashacorki
Yheah
OHHHHHHHHHH
It's like factorization, but you're forcing it.
Say you have $(a+b)$, then I could write that as $\frac{1}{2}(2a+2b)$.
What I showed you is a more systematic way of dealing with it, but if you think of it as factoring it's more natural.
Azyrashacorki
Yeah

i used this equation which im pretty sure is correct, to make the ellipse for this problem-
. Create a graph of Tanus’ movement around Ini using your equation from question 1. Label
your graph with the position of the star and the planet.
using the equation x^2/ 5625 + y^2/ 1406.25 =1
h and k are not specified i dont think

I got stuck
you mean 16m^2 + 16mn + 4n^2
Yeah
Ignore the n at the first
What property or law do can I apply on the -3(m-n)(m+2n)
just use distributive property: (x + y)a = xa + ay
in this case you can set a = m + 2n
and then repeat it
Distribute the -3 in the (m-n)
Like this?>
Then use double distributivity
is this the result
(-3m + 3n)(m + 2n) = -3m(m + 2n) + 3n(m + 2n)
Oh waot
then you can do -3m(m + 2n) + 3n(m + 2n) = -3m^2 - 6mn + 3nm + 6n^2
This is what I got
The answer is supposed to be: 13m2+13mn+10n2
is 3nm same as 3mn?
Or what do I do there
-6mn + 3nm is clearly -3mn, and 16mn - 3mn = 13mn
yes, 3nm = 3mn
5 * 3 is 3 * 5
4 * 2 is 2 * 4
So, should I just add the 3nm to the 10mn?
yes

Sry if this is rather physic-y but why do we have U_(Capacitor) = |U_0| after turning the switch?
could you tell what U means?
is that energy or voltage
Voltage
We charge this capacitor C
Then we turn the switch
And then the stuff that is written on the bottom of the picture hold
First one is clear
But why the second one?
its an LCR circuit with a DC source right, so can you write down the differential equation ?
No that comes later, first we want the starting conditions
To be able to solve that diffeq later
r so the Vs are just voltmeters right?
Yeah
It's just an initial condition
I mean it is convention to start with all charge in the capacitor before the oscillations begin
yeah so it should be given as an inital condition
Wait so at the very beginnung, U_C = 0, right?
Before charging
or else you are to assume that U_c =0
Then we charge and it slowly reaches |U_0|?
And then we use the switch, and that is at t = 0
Depends on what you mean by very beginning
you had LC oscillations going on before t=0, is that relevant?
This is the beginning
The switch is left
So in this picture?
unless something else is specified
Where the switch is left
yep, if you can send the full q it might help
There is no q, this is just a presentation I'm doing on electromagnetic oscillations and I'll have to do this entire experiment myself
Ok, after we turn the switch
Will U_L also be |U_0|?
Or only U_C
Ohhhh, so you had RLC circuit till t-> infinity, then you had LC oscillations
solve the RLC circuit first
What
I'm so confused
So you start with RLC and after all the energy is over you switch over to LC?
I start with this
After having charged the capacitor C up, we go over to this
so first you had a battery supplying voltage to the capacitor and inductor, till infinite time ( implying fully charged).
so basically figure out the voltages and charges by solving the differential equation using voltage of capictor at t=0 is 0 and voltage at inductor at t=0 is 0
Ah okay
Now there will be electromagnetic oscillations
then you turn the switch and you have LC oscillations
In the end, I get these
But only with the use of the starting conditions
THese are the starting conditions
My question is really just how we get to the starting conditions after C is fully charged
It makes sense why Q = C * |U|
It makes sense that I = 0A (we stopped the battery)
But why U_C = |U_0|
Is also U_L = |U_0|?
So does it make sense?
It's arbitrary
The amplitude yeah
I could've picked U_C = 0 aswell?
It would be that
Sure
It doesn't have to do with the charging processß
But you'd work that in with a phase difference
I mean is it not U_C = |U_0| because teh capacitor is charged
Not the value of the amplitude
Yes
So we do need |U_0|
Notice how it's a cosine here you'd use sine instead
Because we first charge it, only then use the switch
Always
But you just said it's arbitrary?
The amount of charge in your capacitor at an instant solely depends on your phase
When t = 0, the phase is 0, at t = 0 we have maximum charge in the capacitor because that's how we let the system progress
And it is most convenient for an LC circuit
Why are we talking about charge here, that'd be Q, I'm fine with that being C * |U_0|
I'm asking about the U_C
That's the voltage of the capacitor
If you start t = 0 after a quarter cycle, then the initial phase is pi/2, you can introduce a phase shift and have the capacitor have no charge at t = 0
Ah shit sorry I'm used to having U represent energy
Well anyways q = CV
It's proportional
Why is the voltage in the capacitor at t = 0 equal to |U_0|?
I'm fine with the charge in it being C * |U_0|
q = CU?
Yes
U = q/C
Follow from this
Charge is C|U_0| then potential difference is U_0
Uh
Ok yeah that works if we take Q = C * |U_0|, yeah, thanks.

hii, i'm doing some review before my final exam for linear algebra and i'm kinda confused about this one in particular, why is this not a subset? doesn't it include every rational number which also includes 0?
if this does fail what axiom does it not pass?
uhhh
you should ask in a different channel
but you need the y to be seperate in it's own side
bro
this is my channel with my question, you can move to a different one
chill out
unless you can help with this you shouldn't be chatting in here
read the rules...
sorry, I misread the name
okay anyway back to topic
ahh
but yeah, this is your channel rn
explain how you know
this is the correct answer based off the willey and we have 3 attempts so i prolly just guessed until i got it correctly but:
since the a0 a1 a2 and a3 are rational numbers, then you can add them up in any combination and its still going to be rational, you can multiply them in any way and they're still rational, and you have a zero vector by using all zeroes
so it is a subset?
the willey is inaccurate
or does it think 0 is not a rational number 😭
had to google that LOL

Let's call the matrix "A" for a moment.
Your equation is:
Ax = 3x
we can write 3x as (3I)x, now its a matrix multiplication
so Ax = (3I)x
Ax - (3I)x = 0
(A - 3I)x = 0
where 0 is the 0 vector
now it's a linear system
do i let x = (a,b,c)
you can compute the matrix of coefficients A - 3I easily
that's unnecessarily complicated
TLDR: subtract 3 from each entry on diagonal, and then do gauss method
This video explains who to find the eigenvectors that correspond to a given eigenvalue.
here it's explained in video
yes
generally, you will be solving this system:
(A - lambda I)x = 0
now you can just do gaussian reduction btw
and solve the system
and since the determinant is 0, it will have infinitely many sols
if you dont mind can you demonstrate it? since how i did it was really just let x = (a,b,c) and solving for each row, thanks
i got a=b=c=1
MæthIsAlwaysRight
it's essentially solving this system
MæthIsAlwaysRight
\[
\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}
5 & 9 & -14 & 0 \\
1 & 1 & -2 & 0 \\
1 & 3 & 1 & 0 \\
\end{array}\right]
\]
MæthIsAlwaysRight
wdym?
yeah
would u do r2-5r1
where exactly?
yes
oh i know what's wrong
yeah?
i forgot to turn your 5 to -5
MæthIsAlwaysRight
sorry i copied it wrong 😭 its 2am rn
[
\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}
2 & 9 & -14 & 0 \
1 & 1 & -2 & 0 \
1 & 3 & -4 & 0 \
\end{array}\right]
]
Yes, now it works out
MæthIsAlwaysRight
[
\left[\begin{array}{ccc|c}
1 & 0 & -1 & 0 \
0 & 1 & -1 & 0 \
0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \
\end{array}\right]
]
MæthIsAlwaysRight
so b - c = 0
and a - c = 0
or b = c and a = c
so a = b = c
so eigenvector can be [1, 1, 1] or [2, 2, 2] or anything in this form
ohh i see
can i ask one more question? about matrix
thanks for that btw
sure
part d I suppose?
yep
well so do you already have the characteristic equation?
i dont know what that is sorry, im prelearning all of this
well then you should probably learn about that
is it det(A-lambdaI)=0
just the left side of it
anyway, let's just assume the polynomial would be say
$\lambda^3 + c_1 \lambda^2 + c_2 \lambda + c_3 I$
MæthIsAlwaysRight
then $A^3 + c_1 A^2 + c_2 A + c_3 I = 0$
why is it like that
MæthIsAlwaysRight
it will be a third degree polynomial, i dont know which one yet, so ill show you the general case
because we have 3 eigenvalues?
mainly because it's 3 x 3 matrix
Now we can multiply that by A^-1
assuming c3 is non-zero
Yeah that makes sense
what lambda would i use
variable lambda
the letter
you mainly need to find the coefficients of the polynomial
what eigenvalues did you find btw?
-1 3 5
,w expand (lambda+1)(lambda-3)(lambda-5)
okay, here is your characteristic polynomial
roots of characteristic polynomial are the eigenvalues
so i used that to get it
ohhh
this would also mean that A^3 - 7A^2 + 7A + 15 = 0
now multiply by A^-1 and solve for it
yeah, its called cayley hamilton theorem iirc
or sth like that
it states that every matrix satisfies it's characterstic equation

btw it's not too hard to check your answer to questions like this by using a graphing calculator like Desmos
If I graph the thing you're trying to simplify and your final answer, I can see the two graphs differ, so something went wrong
Lemme look through your work
you're missing parentheses
the first two terms should be in parentheses (.. - ..) · sqrt(1-x^2)
Once you fix that and simplify, your answer is right, and you can double check it by graphing

we know that the rectangle as paralel sides right?
that means that the angles must be the same
so the triangles (big triangle - rectangle) must be similar to eachother and similar to the big triangle
we could try starting from that
1/2(base)(height)
Let me think, ty btw
Surely it's not y=x(b + h)
But that seems right? @civic sand
Yeah
ok
the triangles ABH and BIC are similar to the Triangle AGC
I think ratios can be a clue
$b / x = h / h_y$
@dense island How does the question need to be answered?
something like this?
Yeah, I didn't intend to do it fully
I had no clue how to translate that into a function
How did you get this?
Which is the important part for me
the angle BAH is equal to the angle CBI since the side of the rectangle are paralel, the same can be said for the angles BCI and ABH
The triangles are similar which means that their sizes and lenghts can be expressed as ratios
BCI?
Yeah
the angles are identical thus the sides must be ratios
That's not where I'm having difficulties, I wonder where the algebraic motivation came from per se
How you got to the exact equation
so the side BH is to CG, the same that BI is to AG and so on, that's where the ratio came from
This is clever and I realized for myself, I had no clue how to make it a function
OH
after that I used a rule of 3 simple to solve for H_y and just putted that in the equation
so
I think I understand, thank you
no need with anything else?

Confused by bounds here
Why are the z bounds not just where the cylinder and sphere intersect?
Here is my thought ^ z-planes of intersection.
Because you are just going to take that integral over the proper radius.
(but my thoughts are wrong apparently)
so why integrate with bounds from entire top half of sphere and bottom half?
i do not understand the logic. you are just finding the area essentially with the cylinder at a height where they intersect.
because youre missing the little curved bits at each end
what little curved bits?
are we not just essentially finding the volume of the cylinder from the height of intersection? maybe i do not understand what it is asking
take the cylinder off your graph really quick and ypull notice a bit sticking out of the planes
those are still inside the cyliner and the sphere
that height varies based on the radius hence the z bounds being based on r
i see
thank you
that was the issue, i did not understand!
much appreciated

how would I fully factor 2(x^4−81)?
the original question was 2x^4 - 162
Difference of squares
I got to that but idk how to keep going
how tho?
$a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)$
SWR
That's a start. Yeah
As denoted from the equation from the sphere r^2 + z^2 = 64 so z = +- sqrt(64 - r^2) if you wanted to solve it analytically
I would substitue u for x^2
thanks

first thing i have to do is find A^2 right?
I think so, and then you'd find eigenvalues/eigenvectors for the diagonalization.
I found A^2
then i have to do det(A^2-λI) = 0 right?
for eigenvalues
look at how A^2 looks. do you actually need the char poly to tell the eigenvalues?
idk sorry 😭
i got P = zero matrix which obviously doesnt make sense
Well as you can see from the computation you did, the eigenvalues are the entries of the diagonal.
This is true for diagonal matrices in general.
As for the eigenvectors, can you show your work for finding them?
Well eigenvectors won't be (0,0,0) ever, so no
What did i do wrong
why do you have 2D eigenvectors?
You should REF the matrix you get
wdym?
which
why do you say $x = \begin{bmatrix} 0 \ 8 \end{bmatrix}$
nameless individual
It's (0,0,0), not (0,8)
oh nevermind then
When you subtract the identity matrix times the eigenvalues
You get a matrix
You have to REF this matrix
are you sure that's all the solutions for $x$?
nameless individual
To get the eigenspace
for instance, when $\lambda=25$
nameless individual
you have $\begin{bmatrix} 0 & \frac{22}3 & 48 \ 0 & 11 & 0 \ 0 & 0 & -24 \end{bmatrix}x=\mathbf0$
nameless individual
but for instance, $\begin{bmatrix} 5\0\0 \end{bmatrix}$ is also a solution for $x$ that you have not considered.
Ye
nameless individual
how do i do it? 😭
how do i find this as a solution
let $x=\begin{bmatrix}a\b\c\end{bmatrix}$
nameless individual
yep
and you will get a system of equations
You'll get $b=c=0$ but nothing for $a$, for instance, when $\lambda=25$
nameless individual
yes
and thats because $\begin{bmatrix}a\0\0\end{bmatrix}$ are all eigenvectors with eigenvalue $25$, no matter what $a$ is
nameless individual
By definition of eigenvector and linear transformation
$\begin{bmatrix}0\0\0\end{bmatrix}$ is always an ``eigenvector", so we usually don't even include it
it's not useful, and eigenvectors are meant to be useful lmao
Ohhhh
(not to torture you)
nameless individual
lmao thanks for letting me know
never knew this
what about when λ = 36?
(0,k,0)?
no...
nameless individual
is it easy to intuitively understand that eigenvectors comes in lines?
uhh not really sorry
i.e. if $x$ is an eigenvector, then $kx$ is also an eigenvector for constant scalar $k$
nameless individual
exactly
Thank u so much
its nice helping people out
Can you prove that the eigenvectors of $A^2$ and $A$ are the same, and the corresponding eigenvalue for $A^2$ is the square of that of $A$?
(and that $A^2$ doesn't have any more eigenvectors)
(haha im not sure either i havent really learned any linear algebra lma)
lemme get gpt
nameless individual
gpt gave some crap answers
nameless individual
@marsh lake
hmm
i really dont know sorry 😭 i just started on matrices
i meant, what do you have by definition?
A^2x=λ^2x?
λ^2Ix?
nameless individual
yah, sorry, made the same mistake
ok yeah makes sense, since were working with matrices
It would be nice if we could apply the difference of squares... but there's an I.
But we have $I=I^2$, by definition.
nameless individual
Yep
so $(A^2-\lambda^2I^2)x=0$
(A+λI)(A-λI)x=0
nameless individual
oh so we can drop the A-λI
nameless individual
and therefore (A+λI)x=0
You can't really drop the $A-\lambda I$
nameless individual
I'm like decently sure that if $ABx=0$ then $Ax=0$ or $Bx=0$ but I have no good argument
nameless individual
I thought it was "trivial" lma
i have no knowledge on linear algebra 😭
<@&286206848099549185>
nah that doesn't hold, sadly
is this still the question under consideration?
no, we are discussing this
https://discord.com/channels/268882317391429632/373217754666500097 Well that went as well
ah gonna copy it here just for reference to reduce scrolling
the last part (and A^2 doesn't have any more eigenvectors) isn't necessarily true
the rest is
(see the help thread
I think this is out of my league here lol, ima stay outta this
oh ok, thanks for helping me anyways lol
twas nice
if $Av = \lambda v$ then $A^2 v = A(Av) = A(\lambda v) = \lambda (Av) = \lambda(\lambda v) = \lambda^2 v$
Bungo
conclusion, if (lambda, v) is an eigenvalue/eigenvector pair for A, then (lambda^2, v) is an eigenvalue/eigenvector pair for A^2
it applies to higher integral powers
And in this case we know that's all the eigenvectors for A since there can only be three lines of eigenvectors for A
(unless its just a whole plane of eigenvectors, and that's another story)
what does that mean sorry
you can just repeat what i did for powers greater than 2
A^3 v = A^2(Av) = A^2(lambda v) = lambda(A^2 v) etc
what is this? STEP?
marking scheme
ohhhhh
Oh yeah i get it now
I never really could understand how you read those. What's A, B, and M?
I have no idea
those are how they give the marks i think
lma nobody knows how they read those
this is a levels btw
I've seen it on STEP as well
it doesnt matter
