\alpha^T\beta=0, A=E+\alpha\beta^T, how can we know det(A)?
you can find a few eigenvalues. not sure if you can find all of them
ah yes I think you can. together with the trace
use the properties of the trace
@eager hemlock Has your question been resolved?
How to get cos140 from sin40
so $\alpha^T\beta=0$, $A=E+\alpha\beta^T$
rafilou2003
E being the identity
yes
what are the eigenvalues of $\alpha\beta^T$
rafilou2003
we dont know
what is $(\alpha\beta^T)^2$
rafilou2003
I think this should help
0
wait maybe I'm tripping too much wait
ok no I'm not
$(\alpha\beta^T)^2 = \alpha\beta^T\alpha\beta^T$
rafilou2003
rafilou2003
what's the minimal polynomial of that matrix
wiat what
idk
yep
and characteristic polynomial?
ye
and never heard of cayley hamilton theorem?
if you've seen characteristic polynomial I don't understand you haven't seen minimal polynomial
char poly, EVALUATED in the matrix, is 0
so say $A = \begin{pmatrix}1&2\0&2\end{pmatrix}$
rafilou2003
you can compute char poly as $p_A(\lambda) = (\lambda-1)(\lambda-2)$
rafilou2003
cayley hamilton tells you that $p_A(A) = (A-E)(A-2E) = 0$
rafilou2003
but more importantly
there is a set of polynomials
that "cancel" A
it's all the polynomials $P$ such that $P(A) = 0$
rafilou2003
mmm
and amongst them
there is a single one, that is unitary, and of minimal degree
we call it the minimal polynomial of A
in this example, you can compute the minimal polynomial to be $\pi_A(\lambda) = (\lambda-1)(\lambda-2)$
rafilou2003
rafilou2003
we found that $(\alpha\beta^T)^2 = 0$
rafilou2003
now unless the matrix is 0 to begin with, its minimal poly is $\pi(\lambda) = \lambda^2$
rafilou2003
the roots of the minimal poly are exactly the eigenvalues of the matrix
there's only one root
0
so the only eigenvalue of the matrix is 0
ok..
if we add the identity to it
all eigenvalues are 1
now for the det
it's the product of eigenvalues

is z = 9 - xˆ2 - yˆ2 an equation for an elliptic paraboloid? if not, what kind of surface does it represent?
Did you try graph it
think about the level curves
I did not graph it
teacher said we should try to draw it ourselves
but i was having a hard time imagining the shape
i used wolfram and got the ideia
You could even think about the graph it makes on each set of 2 axes, ie get rid of one variable and see what you get, basically like a projection
do you know what level curves mean?
havent got to it yet
it means fixing z to a certain number, i.e. let z=1, then you have a crossection of the particular surface you're looking at
Level curves are definitely the way to go here
its the next topic on the book im using (Stewart)
z=0, z=-1, etc.
then, you can picture cross sections by fixing x=0 and y=0
and these together give you a natural picture of what the curve looks like

Context: From what I understand, a polynomial is a function) where you want the input to equate to zero so you can tell where the "base" value is. Graphing polynomials via an input vs result graph can provide greater visualization of the data.
Base position: I've heard it's very difficult to find the roots of a polynomial via inputting direct inputs as the result can be a fraction.
general solution: People typically solve this by breaking the problem into smaller parts that multiply to create the whole (factoring), as that somehow is "easier" to solve for when finding input values that would make the result of the function) equate to zero.
Q-1: Direct: The information provided does not appear to explain how exactly it would make it "easier or obvious," and how this would make the problem more solvable.
Q-2: How does breaking a function) into pieces that multiply together make it easier to find the input values that would result with zero?
Q-3
Proposals:
1 multiplied results: Perhaps when inputting values into the factored expression you only need to make the parts themselves zero?
2 altered zero position: Perhaps by breaking the problem down like that it moves the zero to a more obvious position (making the input that equates to zero a number closer to one or a whole number).
NARROWING LOGIC: (unused)
what is your actual question? @median jolt
so you want to factoring those polynomials I assume?
Because you only need to make the factors individually equal to 0
To find all the roots
$ab=0\implies a=0\lor b=0$
kheerii
Maybe it’s translated
if P, Q, R are (non-constant) polynomials (with say real coefficients) if P(X) = Q(X)R(X) and we want to solve P(X) = 0 we can solve Q(X) = 0 and R(X) = 0
and Q and R will have a lower 'degree' than P
the degree of a polynomial is the highest power. so for instance x^2 + 3x + 2 is degree 2. x^7 + 5 is degree 7
that is why factoring makes it 'easier'
this is true
Indeed
if xy = 0 then x = 0 or y = 0 (or both)
1 format:
Lists all current knowledge and information related to the topic and adds additional explanations for clarification.
2 clarification:
So, if I am getting this correctly, when you break a function) into constituent parts, if you can find the inputs that make those parts individually equate to zero they will give you the zeroes when multiplied back together to create the whole?
3 question:
Does this give the zeroes for the factored 'and' the unfactored function?) And, if so, is this because after multiplying them together the real value would be revealed?```
consider the quadratic x^2 + 3x + 2, we can factorise this as (x + 2)(x + 1)
so if we want to solve x^2 + 3x + 2 = 0 we have (x + 2)(x + 1) = 0 which says that either x + 2 = 0 (i.e. x = -2) or x + 1 = 0 (x = -1)
a factorisation is just another expression of the same function
so it has all the same values
I think for c, you can check it if that is not obvious to you
x^2 + 3x + 2 = (x + 2)(x + 1) is true for all values of x
this is c?
yeah. 3
✅
The factored and unfactored functions are exactly equivalent, just written in different ways
factoring is another way to rewriting things. Like 40 = 4(10)
So they must have the exact same roots

you multiply both side by -3
so left side, you got your -3 canceled out
right side, you have -3 multiply with x/4
wouldnt i have to multiply the left by -3 and the right by 3 tho
since the left denominator is negative
and the right is positive
no. when you deal with equation, you do the same thing both side
if you multiply left side by -3, you multiply right side by -3
Think of it this way: 1 = 1, then 1(-3) = 1(-3)
other way does not make sense
yes

I need help with this
First off, do you know what sections the indicated set is?
No
Ok so first off A intersect B represents all elements that are both in A and B
So in the diagram this is represented as the intersection of both circles
Ok that makes sense
So that would be 70
What is the P for? And does the ‘ apply to the P?
sorry, it’s the area in both circles
not just one
what that is is the union which is something else
P represents the probability of a certain event
in this case it would be 15
exactly
so then there’s the apostrophe symbol
that means the complement of a set
it’s all of the elements not in the given set
So A intersecting B is 15?
yeah
it applies into (a intersect b)
So it would be everything other than 15?
yeah
But I leave the 30 alone?
The thing about complement is that you first have to know what the universal set in this case is
in this case it’s everything in the box
So the answer to the question would be 85.00?
Ohhh alright thanks
👍
one last question for this, what does the reversed intersection symbol mean
the one that looks like a U
i think it stands for union
but im not sure what union means
do you know logic gates in cs?
it's basically or
so the new set contains each value from both sets
I don’t

Which part of the question are you trying to do rn
Do you want to find the regions where it's increasing/decreasing?
Right, but which part do you want to do first?
Ah okay
yup
OK, so I guess we could start with local extrema
Do you remember how to find local extrema using the derivative?
okay
basically the first thing you want to do is solve f'(x) = 0
At those points, the graph will be flat
No
Points of inflection are when the second derivative changes sign
So you'd want to solve f''(x) = 0 for that
Yes, in English the word for this is a "stationary point"
So, once you find those x-values
You have to check whether it's a maximum, minimum, or neither
And you do that using the second derivative
So you'll plug the x value into f'' to get f''(x)
If it's positive, then it will be a minimum. If negative, then it will be a maximum. If f''(x) = 0, then we can't conclude anything.
No worries
You did a good job translating the terms
yup!
So there's only one stationary point
And then plug that into f''
Yeah
so calculate f''(2)
It tells you this ^
whether it's a local minimum, local maximum, or neither
local yea
so because f'(2) = 0 as you found earlier, that makes it a POTENTIAL max or min, and the second derivative can clarify which of them; this is called second derivative test
if you think about the places where the derivative is 0 in this picture, you can see the function becomes flat (i.e. f'(x) = 0 ) if its changing smoothly (differentiable) and it has a min or max
if it's a minimum (like a valley in the graph) it's always going to be concave up (so second derivative is negative) and if its a max (like the peak of a hill) the function will always be concave down (so second derivative is positive). try to convince yourself of this (or prove this wrong by trying to come up with counter examples, like can you find a minimum that is concave down and has a flat slope?)
yeah so basically second derivative you
- mostly use if you are looking at the concavity of functions and to check for points of inflection
- it is also used if you are investigating local min \ maxes. but first you find the potential ones using first derivative (where it is 0 or undefined). after that you can distinguish between min or max using second derivative like we just talked about (doesn't apply to undefined first derivative though, just if 1st derivative is 0 and the function is differentiable)
yes
yeah, i wasnt here for the start of the problem, but eric had to go, so just real quick, what interval are you finding the absolute min \ max over?
just for whole domain of the function?
ok
and this was only local min \ max?
ok gotcha, so we also need to look at what happens at x = 1 since the function is undefined and when functions are discontinuous they can jump in weird ways, so we need to consider $\lim_{x\to1^-}f(x)$ and $\lim_{x\to1^+}f(x)$
∫oosh (lemonsaurus appreciator)
and also need to examine what f(x) does as x-> inf and -inf
shouldnt be too bad, with 1 basically its gonna be a number / 0 so its either -infinity or positive infinity, consider each side from left and right
and with the limits as x -> +- inf the limit will kinda be infinity \ infinity so you can use lhopitals or some such, basically the e^x should overcome the other part of the fraction and be some infinity really you kinda just have to make sure you get the signs right
if you need help with this let me know, but ill let you try to work it out and at least think about it for a couple minutes, brb
ok first 3 look good, for 4th one you got 1?
^^
yes!
yep! so what can we say about absolute min \ maxes?
so actually we don't have an absolute min \ max. the limits at these points dont exist, the +- infinity is more just a description of the function's behavior, sometimes it's said that "the function increases\decreases without bound"
yeah let me see if i can pull up an exact definition
thats just a local minimum yes, but there are other numbers (all the way to -infinity) in the range of the function so it doesn't qualify as an absolute minimum
i think you also had to answer what the range of the function is, speaking of?
yes
thats actually a better word for it
sometimes used interchangeably in some books but sometimes not lol so probably better to avoid the word range altogether
so youre right that theres a gap somewhere there in the middle, how big is the gap? so the function on the x interval (-inf, 1) is taking on what values? and what about on the (1, inf) interval ?
yeah take all the time you need, great that you are working it out : )
well you could build a rough sketch based on all the stuff we found previously, like the 4 limits and the local min, in fact, try to sketch it real quick just using those 5 pieces of information and see what you come up with
those 5 pieces of information should be enough!
(and kinda being aware that it's continuous \ differentiable at all numbers except x = 1)
excellent, that's exactly right
so what else did we have to find
was that it?
were there points of inflection?
what is your thought?
so what is going on with 2nd derivative when x < 1 ?
so there will always be concavity if the function is differentiable
continuity is not enough, for example consider a line: y = mx + b, y ' = m and y '' = 0 so it has a 2nd derivative of 0 everywhere
so it neither concave up or concave down 🤷♂️
but pretty much anything else, if its differentiable, you can think of concavity as "is the slope changing?"
and YES even on your graph, the slope is changing even when it's "nearly flat as x -> -inf" it is changing ever more subtly but it's never a perfectly line
exactly, it's always the same sign, and what sign is this? well you can plug any single test point in the interval (-inf, 1) into this, so let's try 0 because it's as easy as any to calculate:
f''(0) = ?
you're right if you're saying there are no points of inflection, but is the graph concave up or concave down on (-inf, 1) ?
it is
concave up -> positive 2nd derivative
concave down -> negative 2nd derivative
2nd derivative = 0 it means it could be a point of inflection if it happens at a SINGLE point (unlike a straight line where 2nd derivative is 0 everywhere, but no point of inflection) and on either side of the point theres a concave up and a concave down interval
yep, so what's going on with our graph on (-inf, 1) ?
yes
right
you can also think of it....as you move to the right the slope is getting more and more negative
it "starts out" pretty much "flat" from -inf and it gets more and more negative as you move to the right
like if you were skiing down hill it would get more and more steep right?
if youre thinking in terms of moving to the right, in the +x direction
and analytically, we can just plug in any x value into f''(x) thats in the interval (-inf, 1) and we should get a negative number to convince ourselves
yeah, we say concave up and concave down though but yes : )
ok so since we have a portion of the graph that's concave down and one that's concave up, does that mean there should be a point of inflection in between?
uh ok whats the definition of point of inflection? : )
let's look that up and see if it fits
yes that's right
so how do you explain that we can have a concave up part and concave down part but no points of inflection?
if this was a test question in which you had to write out the answer
yeah, and even more fundamentally?
that's also a good go at it, but could you have similar examples where you have no break in domain?
what if i defined g a function to be the same as f, but i say that g(1) = 1 randomly, then suddenly x = 1 is also in the domain
yes, good
so could you have continuous functions where you have a concave up part and another concave down part but no point of inflection?
are you sure? : )
would you bet $100?
so what about this, is it continuous?
yeah that's a good thought so f'(x) is actually what needs to be continuous!
the way we usually phrase that is f(x) needs to be differentiable
i think more intuitively you can think of differentiable as "the slope of f is changing smoothly" rather than thinking of whether f'(x) is continuous which is harder to visualize
so like in this example the slope is negative, then suddenly it "jerks" to flat immediately then it suddenly it "jerks" again to negative, no smooth change
if we graphed f'(x) there there would be sudden jumps
so yeah all you were saying is right that we have no inflection point because there is an asymptote and whatnot, but the key fundamental property of the graph that affects which is necessary for point of inflection is that the function is differentiable over the relevant interval where its changing concavity
im just trying to get you to think in terms of continuity \ differentiablity which if you can do then you will understand everything in calculus at a more intuitive level : )
when learning new theorems and stuff try to pay attention to the setups of them, like sometimes continuity is necessary (usually for pretty much everything in calculus) sometimes also differentiability, try to consider why the setups of the theorems need one or the other there is usually some geometric interpretation you can come up with that makes you understand the ideas of the theorems intuitively
ok gotta go, hopefully youre all set on that otherwise feel free to open a new channel with more questions
or keep this 1 open
ok
you would find where f'' = 0
and these are "potential" points, kinda like using first derivative for min \ max
then confirm by making sure that on either side of that you have a + and a -
for example, check out y = x^3 real quick, you have y'' = 0 at x = 0 but there is no inflection point because f'' > 0 for all other x

Using comparison/absolute value criteria for convergence, determine the convergence of
$\int_{0 }^{\infty}\frac{x{^2}e{^-{^x}}dx}{1+x{^2}}$
Claire
my only idea is to somehow prove that x^2 e^-x < 1 so as to use that 1/1+x^2 converges because its arctan(x)
Brilliant idea
Well can you prove x^2e^-x<1
Try multiplying both sides by e^x
Only positive x cause that's what the integral is integrating over
The endpoint of an integral doesnt really matter
Only the limit to it
But the inequality is also true for 0 so its no problem
well i mean i dont know how rigorous you have to be, but cant you just say that e^x grows much faster than x^2
the inequality is eventually true
wait actually its true for all x > 0, i thought it was just eventually true
that makes it easier anyway
think of the power series of e^x
what can you say about it
hmm
I'm not sure
other than ofc it grows faster
I guess I could say since at 0 0^2 < e^0
actually what i was thinking doesnt work
but surely it must just be simple
gimme a sec
I don't think I can take ln on both sides, that would F up the domain at 0
ln(x^2) < ln(e^x) = x --> 2 ln(x) < x
but ln(x) can't have 0 as domain
ok my concern is the x^2/2 in the power series of e^x
it should be easy to prove that the other terms are greater than x^2/2
ok i think i have an idea
but it may be very overcomplicated
consider e^x + e^-x
It's slightly unrigorous but if you divide by x^2 then you get a constant < increasing function, so just check >0 (when considering the power series)
= 1 + x + x^2/2 + x^3/6 + x^4/24 + ... + 1 - x + x^2/2 - x^3/6 + x^4/24 - .... = 2 + x^2 + x^4/12 + .... (all positive after that)
so e^x = x^2 2 - e^-x + x^4/12 + .....
okay hold on, I mean
how about this
at 0 its true
and the derivative of e^x indicates that the rate of change is greater and thus
for every point onward
its true too
oh tbh you could just do induction for every natural number
is that what you are doing
yeah that should work
Ngl that's really nice
they are both increasing so it works for every number in between
x^2 < e^x at 0
and d/dx (x^2) < d/dx (e^x)
is this true tho
2 < e^x
its not
2x<e^x
yeah sorry 2x
derivative of x^2 isnt 2
i mean words are fine lol
its kind of obvious that x^2 < e^x
it's obvious that x^2<e^x is eventually true
yeah but doesn't it have to be true ALWAYS?
no
for the comparison criteria?
you could just split the integral
up to the point where its true
the other will be finite so it doesnt change anything
so, just to be sure of what im saying is
tbh you could just show $\lim_{x\to \infty}{\frac{x^2}{e^x}} = 0$ cant you?
eugene_krabs_has_cake
comparison criteria states that for a function 0<F(x) < G(x) if the integral of G(x) converges, then so does F(x) on the same bounds (improper)
. you could also just use this proof
if you prove that this limit is 0, then x^2 is in little o of e^x, so for all c > 0, x^2 < ce^x for large enough x
its fine, if the criteria works for "at some point"
I'd like to use that, gives me more flexibility
yes, let's say that e^x overtakes x^2 at a then
$\int_{0 }^{\infty}\frac{x{^2}e{^-{^x}}dx}{1+x{^2}}=\int_{0}^a\frac{x{^2}e{^-{^x}}dx}{1+x{^2}}+\int_{a}^{\infty}\frac{x{^2}e{^-{^x}}dx}{1+x{^2}}$

and we know integrating from 0 to a converges because ?
its a finite integral
the functions we are dealing with are obviously integrable
so the integral with finite bounds is gonna be finite
no point in between breaks it correct?
i dont believe so
if we had a point that breaks it which doesn't seem possible here as its whole R2 domain
the only point i would see breaking it would be if 1+x^2 = 0
then everything becomes divergent?
which doesnt happen
y
so we're good
this integrand should be continuous every where that its being integrated
$\frac{x^2e^{-x}}{1+x^2}<x^2e^{-x}<(a+1)^2$ on (0,a) so the integral converges because its finite and bounded
Daniel
just a normal discontinuity wont necessarily make the integral unbounded
np
for example this function has a singularity but is still integrable
intuitively, because the singularity "comes and goes" incredibly fast
similar with a step function
we were told something about sum zero point or smth
like a single point in the integration makes no difference
yea
for it is infinitely small is my guess
that's also why i said the endpoint 0 doesn't matter
it's actually the limit as $x\to 0^+$

is this correct
(a) A' u B'
(b) A ∩ B'
(c) A' u B
can i ask how this helps know if these are correct
because i dont know what you think they are
math
i cant really help you verify if they are correct if i dont know what expression you are trying to represent with each box
from left to right, what do you think they represent?
A′ ∪B ′ represents the union of the complement of set A (denoted as A′ ) and the complement of set B (denoted as B′ ). This set includes all elements that are either not in A or not in B, encompassing elements that are outside both A and B.
hopefully that explains it
The boxes are shaded
ok again completely not what i meant
yes
is this one supposed to represent A' U B'?
the third boxes represent the final answer
considering there are 3 boxes on each row and one answer
ok then what are the other 2 supposed to be?
i was just wondering since they were wrong, maybe you put it somewhere else idk
my understanding was that the first box would be A', the second would be B' and the 3rd would be A' U B'
but that is not what you have depicted
so is it wrong
yes
and i dont understand the steps that lead to the wrong answer
ie i dont understand why those are the steps
what i did was
(a) A' u B': Shade all areas that are not in either A or B.
(b) A ∩ B': Shade the area where elements are in A but not in B.
(c) A' u B: Shade all areas that are not in A, and B.
well you should think about what union and intersection represents in venn diagrams
my advice would be to draw each of the 2 parts to each expression
ie do this
but for each of them
if the question wants a union, shade everything that is shaded in either of the previous 2 boxes
if its intersection, only shade the part that is commonly shaded in both of the previous 2 boxes
ok i think i might have got it
forgot to shade in the third box for the first one but you get the idea
its wrong but i still dont see where you get that from
i looked at examples online
gimme a sec, lemme show you my method for doing this kind of question
this is what i would recommend
in the first 2 boxes putting each part of the expression
and then joining those 2 things to get the answer
here it wants the union of these 2 shaded parts, so shade every part thats shaded in at least one of the 2 boxes
Ok I gotcha
how about A ∩B'
well draw A and then draw B', and since its intersection, only shade the parts that are shaded in both A and in B'
well if we take the second one, its also not right
and again idrk what the first 2 boxes are trying to represent
what exactly did i do wrong this time
well if this is using the method i suggested, the first one doesnt represent A, the second doesnt represent B'
if its not using the method i suggested, idk what is being done to try to get the answer
it just seems like random shading
i literally did what you asked wdym
ok then its done incorrectly if you did
this doesnt represent A
if you were representing A you would need the middle aswell
this doesnt represent B as the middle is actually part of B, you need the parts not included in B, ie what is shaded here, and the outside
can you do another example drawing then
ok here are the first 2 boxes
i'll leave you to do the 3rd
remember only shade the parts that are shaded in both boxes
if its only shaded in 1 of them, dont shade it
this is for A ∩ B' right not A' u B
yeah this is for the second row
of this
ok youve shaded too many things in that 3rd box
for example the middle
the middle is only shaded in 1 of the 2 boxes before it, ie the first one
its not shaded in the second one
hence its not part of the intersection
that same explanation goes for one more part that you shaded in the 3rd box
i mean i have to show the final answer
wdym?
yeah?
im just saying that the final answer is wrong
because youve shaded too many things
ok so what do i unshade from the 3rd box
well the middle part for 1 thing
i explained why above
theres one more part
the outside
do you understand why?
just to clarify, you want me to erase the union
the middle part yeah
i'll try and explain it a bit better
see here the middle is only shaded on the left box, not the middle
so its not supposed to be shaded in the right box
as another example, the outside is only shaded in the middle box, not the left box, so again you dont shade it in the right box
but this one is different
this part is shaded in both the left and middle box, so you would shade it on the right box
the only bit thats left to consider is this part
but this isnt shaded in either of the left or middle boxes, so again you wouldnt shade it in the right box
so im just gonna clarify again, you only want me to leave it like this
yeah
would you know how to draw A' or B by themselves as 2 seperate venn diagrams?
no
if someone asked you to just draw B, what do you think that would look like?
a box with a circle inside it
well if you were to say that something is in B, what circle would that thing go into?
idk B, the intersection
you are close with the middle box
and you have the correct idea for the 3rd
in the middle box, the middle is also included
so it would be this
by middle you mean the intersection
yeah
since if something is in the intersection, its in A and its in B, so by definition its in B
so the intersection is part of B
now for drawing A', just think of it as drawing A, then unshade everything thats shaded, and shade everything thats unshaded
basically draw the complete opposite of A
so for Box 1 of C. unshade circle A and shade circle B
well lets say first draw A quickly
you would do the exact same thing that you did when drawing B, but ofc switch A and B around
should make it easier to see how to draw A'
ok so yes
well i mean you changed the bottom right box from when you initially had it
if the first 2 boxes were correct here, then the 3rd would also be correct
so just do what you did before, after changing the first 2 boxes
which was what
im saying you had the right idea here
any part thats shaded in at least one of the first 2 boxes gets shaded in the 3rd
so apply that idea to this
can you do a drawing like you did here while i work on getting the final answer
well you have both the drawings correct there all you need to do is imagine the 3rd box is completely unshaded, look at each part of the box and think about whether that same part has been shaded in either of the 2 boxes here, if so then shade it, if not then dont
i want you to do this part on your own, since this is literally the last part
it will give you more of an understanding compared to if i just drew it
ok ill draw it just because i feel bad
but i want to know how you drew the 3rd box then if you dont understand this
i just took A and B and put them together in the 3rd box nothing hard
exactly
but thats literally what you do to get this
so how could you do it before but couldnt do it there?
like i said i just connected the first two boxes together
interesting to see how people struggle with this kind of thing

I need help on question 9, idk how to get d
Use the formula
a_n = a_1 + d(n-1)
Solve for d
No idea why they changed from s to t
Typo I think
it means sum vs term i think

The shape given by the area bounded between y=x^2 and y=sqrt(x) inside of the first quadrant (x>=0) has a density of p(x)=2x+x^2, what is it's mass and center of mass in terms of x
how would I find it's mass?
You’re looking for the volume under the surface
$M=\int_V dm$
SWR
If you imagine the density function as a surface over the x-y plane
could I not just do area (ΔyΔx) multiplied by the density equation?
and derive them
so that it's
idk how ot write the integral bu 0-->1 (2x+x^2)(sqrt(x)-x^2)dx?
It’s $mass = \iint_D \rho(x, y), dxdy$
frosst
Where D is the area enclosed by the 2 curves
oh jeez we haven't learned that yet
You’ll need to think about if you want to do dx or dy first, and what the bounds are
huh ok
You haven’t learned this yet?
yeah we havent covered the double integralso r whatever
Huh…I’m not sure how you’d formulate this without double integrals
I also havent seen notation with a isngular bound on the bottom
Seeing as you want to find the mass of a 2D object
Given by the density at each point on the object
my thought process was that you take slices in terms of Δx, since the density changed along the x-axis and not the y-axis, and then you multiply the density by the area of the 2d object
and the area is ΔxΔy, and since we're integrating by Δx, that'll be our dx, and the Δy would be the top minus the bottom of the shape
so sqrt(x)-x^2
would that technically... work?
i'll write it down on some itegral writer or smth so I can show it properly
The thing is, you can do $\int_a^b\rho(x)\int_c^d,dy,dx$
frosst
yeah, $\int \rho(x)(f(x)-g(x)) dx$ should work
jeeby eff
But you’d still need the bounds no?
yeah the bounds would be from 0 to 1 since that's when they converge
Ohhh I see
intersect, not converge
Thanks garlic
lmao
oh sick I thin kI got htat right
sorry for the typing..
but what about center of mass?
i'm not too sure how to go about that
oh and the bounds would be x=0 to x=1
btw the equation I got for mass is
im assuming center of mass in terms of x just means the x coordinate of center of mass
yeah
ok remember that center of mass means the if you cut the piece through the center of mass, you cut the piece into two pieces of equal mass
do I not jsut use the center of mass equation?
that being?
[mass*Δx]/mass
yeah its jsut my class was only taught using that
yeah you can use that

how did he calculate $8.42 for the interest of the 2nd month?
,calc (844.2+840)*.005
Result:
8.421
so the balance at the start of august (844.20) plus the deposit (840) all earns the .5% interest over the month
@unreal folio Has your question been resolved?
oh 💀 thanks, im confused on how the 3rd interest is $12.66 then
It's the same process, take the balance from the previous row add the deposit times the interest
So the 12.66 is from (1692.62 + 840) * .005
,calc (1692.62 + 840) * .005
Result:
12.6631
thank you

how to approach this problem
i tried rewriting this as $\sum_{k=0}^{2n}\binom{4n}{2k}(-1)^k$
pirateking0723
this sum is the same as $2(\binom{4n}{0}+\binom{4n}{2}+\cdot\cdot\cdot+\binom{4n}{2n})=2\sum_{k=0}^{n}\binom{4n}{2k}(-1)^k$
pirateking0723
what can i do now
does this even help
通过动画讲解二重积分的换次序积分
You could use complex numbers
Expand $(1+i)^{4n}$, the real part is the sum that they have given you
Max
Write this in modulus argument form. Then find the real part 👍
i got what you mean all of the terms with even powers on the i will be real
these even powers will have the coefficients which i am trying to sum
so i rewrite this as (2i)^(2n)=(-2)^(2n)=(-4)^n
but then isnt this the same as (1+i)^(4n)
so it also includes the imaginary parts too

right ?
does $C^a_b$ mean $\binom ba$ here
mtt
I don’t think it’s related to calculus
sounds like an unrelated question
I swear there should be a youtube animation or 10 on that but finding it wont be easy
yes
(1 + i)^(4n) = (2i)^(2n) = (2i * 2i)^n = (-4)^n
similarly (1 + i)^(4n) = ((1 + i)^4)^n = (-4)^n
(1 + i)^4 just is -4
the imaginary parts are 0 anyways so it doesnt matter
@nimble estuary Has your question been resolved?
how are they always 0
.
i wrote that they sum to 0
they do
yes
what you see here is how
1 + i has angle pi/4
(1 + i)^4 has angle pi/4 * 4
or angle pi
which means (1 + i)^4 is real
its -4
but that doesnt mean that the imaginary parts in each term are 0
can you name me a term
$\binom{4n}{6}i^{4n-3}$
pirateking0723
does that go against what I said?
oh wait theres a typo in this statement here
i^(-3)=i
the imaginary parts add to 0 anyways so it doesnt matter
thats likely what you meant
yes thats what i meant
there we go
as a precaution you say you choose the real part
here we didnt have to throw any terms away
since all the imaginary parts happen to add to 0
ah yes because the imaginary part is already 0 after summing
in the rush of saying that, I accidentally say the imaginary parts are 0 instead which isnt true
np dw about that
yes because this statement can mean that the sum of the imaginary part is 0
you can interpret it like this
tysm and sorry if i wasted your time
but i have a question
how can i find about (1+i)^(4n)
I was wondering why you didnt say that before
is it something that can only come from experience
the clue you can take is that the signs alternate
1, -1, 1, -1, 1, -1...
but the powers involved are all even like:
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10...
now if you remember powers of i, they go:
1, i, -1, -i, 1, i, -1...
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6...
you can see there the even parts suggest ideas
thats the first clue
ah yes this relats to i^2=-1,i^4=1....
but how can i realise (1+i) why not 1+2i for example
nvm
because the coefficients will not just be the binomials
tysm have a great day

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin.
2. I have begun but got stuck midway.
3. I got an answer but I was told that it's wrong.
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
you need to use the log rules
can u just give me answer my friend sent me this saying i couldn't solve this question
!noans
The purpose of this server is to help you learn, not to hand out answers. Do not ask someone to give you the answer directly.
With that attitude he was obviously right
ok
I guess he was right
so two ways to start trying to do this
based on the form of the options
one of these should get you to the answer
ok
why this so hard
xlog(a)+ylog(b)+zlog(c)=log(a^x)+log(b^y)+log(c^z)=log(a^xb^yc^z)
It's ok. It was not designed with the average eight grader in mind
no need to feel bad
I'm not doing the question myself
it has a bunch of algebraic manipulations which while not technically challenging are annoying
good idea

Can I get help
For the first one you factor by 2^x on top
,rccw
Factorise common factors from the top
Ooh
Where did the other 2x go
the denominator you js multiply w the power
oh waitt sorry
Are you talking about part a?
should be this
yes
Ok I was just wondering
How did the 1 come from
But you’ve corrected it
thats from factor the first term
there was + 1
Ohhh
so after u factorise it you get 2^x(2^1 + 1)
So we separate the terms and multiplied them
the one can be ignored
Ok
and factorised them
first step --> look at factorising it
Ok
after factorising simplify the brackets
Ok
and then simplify the whole eqn
Thanks 🙏
all good

pretty sure this is physics
but you could use vectors
