#

this also shows the "trick" - x is just a certain percentage more than s

fallow drift
#

All t lol

limber dawn
#

this means that x's rate of change is the same percentage more than s

#

$\dv{x}{t} = \frac{15.5}{9.2}\dv{s}{t}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

back to ginger

limber dawn
#

you've seen this property of derivatives right?

fallow drift
#

Ye

limber dawn
#

🎉

#

so that's the answer that you found with math, and can also be visualized

#

(the problem tells you ds/dt = 5.5, and asks for dx/dt. they are related by the factor 15.5/9.2 as above)

fallow drift
#

wit

#

wait

#

bruh

limber dawn
#

ok

fallow drift
#

Is the answer

#

A weird fraction

#

I got like

limber dawn
#

yeah it is

fallow drift
#

Oh

#

1705/174?

#

Huh

#

oh I messed up

#

bruh

#

why is it 9.2

limber dawn
limber dawn
#

15.5 - 6.3 = 9.2

fallow drift
#

Nahh what

#

wait

#

Huh

#

Is he not 6.3 ft measured from the ground

limber dawn
#

yes

fallow drift
#

Isn’t the 15.5 ft also relative to the ground

limber dawn
#

you just used 15 instead of 15.5

#

you missed the .5

fallow drift
#

I did tho

#

I did

#

15.5/6.3

#

Helppp

#

i got like

limber dawn
#

here you got 15/8.7

#

it should be 15.5/9.2

fallow drift
#

1705/126

limber dawn
#

15.5/(15.5 - 6.3) is another way to write it

fallow drift
#

ok wait

#

I still

#

DONT rlly get why it’s 6.3

#

If they’re both measured relative to the ground

limber dawn
#

that came from your math

fallow drift
#

Should t you use 6.3

limber dawn
#

it's solving this triangle

#

for x in terms of s

#

you set up the ratios correctly

#

with the 2 similar triangles

fallow drift
#

Help

#

LOL

#

UHH

#

is it not 8.7

#

Tho

#

Nahh in tripping too hard

limber dawn
#

15 - 6.3 = 8.7

#

15.5 - 6.3 = 9.2

#

it should be the second one

fallow drift
#

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

#

Omg

#

SORRY

#

Nahh

#

Lmfaoooo

#

this is so embarrassing

limber dawn
#

🎉

#

nppp

fallow drift
#

lol anyway

#

ty

#

can u help me with another problem 😿

limber dawn
#

maybe yeah

fallow drift
#

how do I get good at related rates

limber dawn
#

ig whenever it's like they tell you one rate and ask for another

#

we do what we did here

#

we call one rate ds/dt

#

and the other dx/dt

#

then we find the equation for s and x first, then take the derivative finally

fallow drift
#

Use @ equation and relate s and x?

#

1

limber dawn
#

yes i think

fallow drift
#

okay

limber dawn
#

by equation 1 you mean in the image of your work?

fallow drift
#

ugh this is so hard

fallow drift
limber dawn
#

yes exactly 👍

fallow drift
#

what math are you doing

limber dawn
#

idk i do physics now

fallow drift
#

huh

limber dawn
#

i'm a phd student

fallow drift
#

you don’t take math anymore?

#

bru

#

physics major?

limber dawn
#

i haven't taken math classes specifically for a while

fallow drift
#

wow

limber dawn
fallow drift
#

wowwww

#

so cool

#

physics > math

#

anyway

limber dawn
#

thanks catthumbsup

#

lol

fallow drift
#

the angle scares me

limber dawn
#

true

#

ok yeah

fallow drift
#

🔥

limber dawn
#

this is the same idea overall

fallow drift
#

Rlly

#

Why is there

limber dawn
#

the angle is an extra kinda thing on top of it

fallow drift
#

ang le

limber dawn
#

but same idea

fallow drift
#

Oh

#

Can you just

limber dawn
#

so we can still say the plane's speed is ds/dt = 4

fallow drift
#

guide me or ent

#

Smth

limber dawn
#

and they want dx/dt, where x is the distance of the plane from the station thing

#

so we can start again just by making an equation with s and x

#

a diagram is probably needed

#

here actually the angle just comes up for the diagram

fallow drift
#

Oh

#

Lemme try

#

Doing smth

limber dawn
#

ok 👍

fallow drift
#

what even is this quesiton asking

#

what is the speed of the plane 5 mins later?

#

Why is it kinda weird

limber dawn
#

yeah it is phrased weirdly lol

fallow drift
#

Is this right

limber dawn
#

ok perfect

#

now actually the plane's positoin is changing

#

and we are asked to relate its rate of change 5 minutes later

#

so it will help to draw the plane on the diagram at some time later too

limber dawn
#

can you see it

fallow drift
#

Idts

limber dawn
#

weird

fallow drift
#

yay I see it now

limber dawn
#

ok yeah that's it

fallow drift
#

Okok

limber dawn
#

cool

#

a trick can be used for this problem too lol

fallow drift
#

Is everything that l wrote to far correct

#

Oh rly

limber dawn
#

except it looks like you wrote "velocity function -> 4t" idk what the 4t means

fallow drift
#

Weren’t u told the plane moves at 4 km/min

#

So like

#

I wrote 4t

limber dawn
#

ah gotcha

fallow drift
#

Is that right

limber dawn
#

so the velocity itself is just 4

#

position would be 4t

fallow drift
#

OH

#

oopsssss

limber dawn
#

also i believe that would apply to s, rather than x

#

(like last time, we're using the letter s for the known/given rate)

fallow drift
#

oh

#

ok I fixed it

#

It’s true that we want dw/dt right

#

Dx

limber dawn
#

last time the given rate was 5.5, so we had ds/dt = 5.5

limber dawn
#

but yeah, here, we can say ds/dt = 4 is given

#

then s = 4t + constant (the constant may matter in general, but here it will turn out to just be zero)

fallow drift
#

Do we need trig for this question

limber dawn
#

yeah 🙁

#

not like a whole bunch

#

mainly one equation (the "cosine law")

fallow drift
#

By s you mean x?

fallow drift
limber dawn
#

but last time we used s or ds/dt for the known rate

#

and x or dx/dt for what we want to solve for

fallow drift
#

like are we talking abt the same thing is what im concerned abt 😭

limber dawn
#

i was going to get to labeling s and x on the diagrams :p

#

that really is what determines it

fallow drift
#

oh okay

#

sorry lol

#

continue

limber dawn
#

npnp

#

it is a good time to do that now then

#

we can use your diagram if you added the plane at the second location

#

it might be easier on the whiteboard thing tho

#

where we both can draw

fallow drift
#

your writing is neater

fallow drift
limber dawn
#

yes 👍

fallow drift
#

ok yea collaborative whiteboard

#

DIDNT bother reading anything 😔

limber dawn
#

IM SO SORRY

#

my vpn died

limber dawn

oh rip

#

np

#

welcome back

fallow drift
#

ty

#

😭

#

I just read what you said

limber dawn
#

does the whiteboard still work

fallow drift
#

can we actually differentiate tho

fallow drift
limber dawn
#

ok good

#

yeah we can

fallow drift
#

cuz DONT we want dx/dt? there no t

limber dawn
#

you could try doing it the "implicit" way just to see how it works

#

so this is the chain rule part

#

you might remember

#

derivative of $x$ with respect to time is $\dv{x}{t}$ of course

wraith daggerBOT
#

back to ginger

limber dawn
#

derivative of $x^2$ with respect to time is $2x \dv{x}{t}$ via the chain rule

wraith daggerBOT
#

back to ginger

fallow drift
#

wait tho

limber dawn
#

so we'll get an equation that we can solve for dx/dt

fallow drift
#

I’m still confused

#

nahhh…

#

laggy ahh wifi…

limber dawn
#

npp

fallow drift
#

can we do d/dt even tho t isn’t even in the function tho

limber dawn
#

we could be more explicit with notation

#

$f(t) = x(t)^2$

wraith daggerBOT
#

back to ginger

fallow drift
limber dawn
#

$\dv{f(t)}{t} = 2 x(t) \dv{x(t)}{t}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

back to ginger

fallow drift
#

ill stick to the first method.

limber dawn
#

technically everything in these equations are functions of t

#

ok sure

#

up to you

fallow drift
#

why does it look so complicated

#

lol

fallow drift
#

Even tho t DOESNT even;appear

limber dawn
#

if you stare at it i think you'd get it

limber dawn
fallow drift
#

okok

#

lemme differentiate

#

Bruh

#

The white air

limber dawn
#

we're almost there

#

so we're just plugging in specific values for s, x, etc. now

#

we said before s = 4t, that's basically how we get s

#

oh you can only open one tab

#

I am working on a program where I need to take the derivative of a normal polynomial via the power rule. I don't believe there is, but would there be any case where the derivative would be longer than the original expression? I'm wondering this for memory buffer reasons.

low edge
#

if you do, then no way. in the unfactorized expression it can be at most the same number of terms. If the original polynomial has no constants, then its derivative will have as many terms as the first one, but one order below of course

I’m taking discrete math and we are learning about recursive functions to explicit functions
In this we have a recursive function which has a particular solution. What I don’t understand is how is B = 5 and where did the function for B come from.
Thank you

Oh wait I just realized why it is equal to 5, but where did the function come from

violet flume
#

its usually helpful to start defining quantities

#

you are given two pieces of information

#

so you expect to have 2 unknowns, probably

#

so a good first step is to define a couple variables

#

that represent what you need to know

#

then express the information youre given

#

in terms of those variables

#

yea

#

A = weight of bag a in grams

#

B = weight of bag b in grams

#

like this happy

#

okay, next step

#

write your first piece of information

#

in terms of A and B

#

you know what the : means in terms of arithmetic operations?

#

i just mean you can get an equation out

#

nah i just mean

#

can you use the equation

#

thats all

#

yea, it means 4a to 1b

#

sup e4

wicked mantle
#

Not functions, the : sign tells you the portion of two bags, which you can get an equation from it

violet flume
#

okay, you got the flow yet?

#

can you tell the next step

#

im gonna go put my pizza in the oven

wicked mantle
#

Do you know why?

violet flume
#

oh, yea, youre right

wicked mantle
#

Ya want me to explain it to you?

violet flume
#

yes please oooh

#

explain it to me

#

okay

#

ill brb

wicked mantle
#

Pleaseee

violet flume
#

just kidding

wicked mantle
#

It’s always not a bad thing to learn more

violet flume
#

the next step is to express the next piece of information

#

you have another piece of information

#

u need to express it in terms of A and B

#

brb pizza

wicked mantle
#

I’m here

#

What’s up

violet flume
#

we reacted cat happy

#

that means keep goin

wicked mantle
#

are you looking for the ratio between a and b?

violet flume
#

yea

#

here's how these usually go

#

you write the equations in terms of normal arithmetic operations

#

you solve one equation for one variable

#

then, you substitute that into the other

#

like, check this out

#

say we had

x-y = 4
x + y = 6

#

we'd solve the first equation for x = 4+y

#

then substitute it in

#

(4+y) + y = 6

#

okay

#

well you have your equations

#

you can proceed with this step

#

unless you need help

#

yea fractions

#

then just the normal ol process

#

whats up

#

the normal trick is to make the first step getting rid of any fractions

#

we do it like this

#

$\frac ax = \frac by$

wraith daggerBOT
#

jan Niku

violet flume
#

say you got something like this

#

its important theres one fraction on each side

#

no problem

wicked mantle
#

Before you leave, can you tell us what’ve you learnt?

rapid mauve
#

?

wicked mantle
#

…..

#

Bro, I’m fr

#

Imma make sure you understand

#

Sure, but can you explain why 1:2 = 4:8

violet flume
#

you dont have to say anything lol

#

but i am curious

#

we can circle back to the original question

wicked mantle
#

first ratio equation about a and b

#

Fine

void sand
#

if $K \subseteq M$ is compact and $U \subseteq K$ is open in $K$, is $\operatorname{cl}_M(U)$ compact in $M$?

wraith daggerBOT
#

higher!

void sand
#

if it matters, assume that M is Hausdorff because that's the only case I really care about anyways KEK

#

cl_M refers to the closure operation in M

void sand
#

so we can ask if $\operatorname{cl}_M(K \cap V)$ is compact in $M$ instead

wraith daggerBOT
#

higher!

void sand
#

but I'm not sure how to approach this at all now pikathink

#

all I know is that K is compact (and thus closed if we assume M is Hausdorff), and that cl_M(U) is closed in M

#

well, one idea I had is to show that cl_M(U) is a closed subset of K, hence compact in K (and thus in M), but I don't know how to do that

#

it's my only idea thus far though, so I'd appreciate if somebody had a suggestion as to how I'd show that, or if this idea is wrong altogether

pallid slate
#

I would say consider interior of U vs the limit points

royal finch
#

Topology isn't really my thing, but the way I see it, M/K is an open set, and U has a finite subcover except for possibly its boundary which M/K would help you handle.

#

I didn't flesh out that thought very deeply, so grain of salt and all that

mint inlet
royal finch
#

Yeah sorry I misspoke, that was the line of thinking I had with the boundary part

pallid slate
void sand
pallid slate
#

And U subset of K so cl U is contained in K

void sand
#

I agree with that, but why is cl_M(U) closed in K?

pallid slate
#

Havent done this in a while but my intuition is the definition of closure being intersection of open sets containing U definition

void sand
#

you mean closed sets? pikathink

pallid slate
#

Like cl_M(U) = \bigcap_{V \supset U } V

void sand
#

mhm

pallid slate
#

lemme find it on wikipedia

dusk goblet
pallid slate
#

Bruh yeah

#

And since K is closed set containing U we have that

#

Idk why I thought it was opens

void sand
#

I agree that K contains cl_M(U) and that cl_M(U) is closed in M

#

but I don't see why it's closed in K

pallid slate
#

It doesnt need to be to show compact in M right?

#

You have hausdorff

pallid slate
void sand
#

I'm confused? pikathink

#

yeah

#

but the theorem says that compact subsets of Hausdorff spaces are closed

#

we don't know that cl_M(U) is compact in M yet

#

that's what we wanted to show, no? kongouderp

void sand
#

but we also don't know that cl_M(U) is compact in K either

#

that's what we want to show

dusk goblet
void sand
dusk goblet
#

you’re showing it’s compact in M?

void sand
#

do we not wish to show it's compact in K first, from which it will follow that it's compact in M?

void sand
#

it's closed in M and a subset of K, why does that make it compact?

pallid slate
#

Wait

#

Take open cover of cl U

#

Take open cover of K

void sand
#

like, this doesn't apply, right?

#

because it's not a closed subset of K yet

#

we only know it's closed in M

hallow pelican
#

finite intersection property go brrrrrrrrr

pallid slate
void sand
#

what do you mean? pikathink

pallid slate
#

Like closed subset of K is using definition of subspace topology right

#

Is that what you mean?

void sand
#

yes

pallid slate
#

Like subspace topology of K wrt M and K is compact

#

cl_M(U) is closed in M implies cl_M(U) \cap K is closed wrt subspace topology.

#

So you have what you want

void sand
#

darn. I can't believe I forgot about that

#

oh hi c squared KEK

#

turns out after all that, my issue was forgetting how the subspace topology works

#

more specifically, that cl_M(U) = K \cap cl_M(U) since cl_M(U) is contained in K

#

so it's closed in K

pallid slate
#

You can probably just use same proof for that property of compact sets to prove it too

#

Where you take open cover of cl U and then you union it with M-clU and then you realize its cover of K which you take finite subcover

analog steeple
pallid slate
#

Just walk thru

analog steeple
#

yea, just summarizing

pallid slate
#

Stealing chatgpt job fr

#

Mad respect

analog steeple
#

...chatgpt...

#

blegh

void sand
analog steeple
#

this is a good exercise

void sand
#

cl_M(U) is closed in M, not K

#

a priori, I can't use that theorem, no?

pallid slate
void sand
#

we had to first show that it's contained in K, which lister boys did

void sand
#

I'm not concerned about the compactness in K vs compactness in M part

#

that I'm familiar with

#

I was concerned about closed in K vs closed in M part

analog steeple
# void sand cl_M(U) is closed in M, not K

cl_M(U) is closed in M, indeed, but it won't help you show that it is compact, because not all closed subsets of Hausdorff spaces are compact.
This proof relies on the fact that cl_M(U) is contained in a compact set

analog steeple
#

yes

pallid slate
#

[0,infty) closed but not compact

void sand
pallid slate
#

Yeah its closed with respect to topology of compact space

analog steeple
#

what is your confusion?

void sand
#

"closed subset of a compact space" makes me think the closed subset must be closed in the compact space K

#

not in the ambient space M

analog steeple
#

it doesn't matter

analog steeple
#

because compactness is not a relative property

#

another exercise worth doing:

Let X ⊆ Y ⊆ Z. Show that X is compact relative to Y (i.e., in the subspace topology on Y) if and only if X is compact in Z

void sand
#

that's really the only one that was befuddling me here KEK

void sand
void sand
#

every closed subset of a subspace S of X is of the form S \cap L, where L is closed in X

#

and cl_M(U) = K \cap cl_M(U), so it's closed in K

analog steeple
#

yea, that is one way to apply this lemma

void sand
#

then we can use the closed in compact thingy

analog steeple
#

mhm

analog steeple
#

if its compact, its compact no matter what space it sits in (with respect to the subspace topology, of course)

void sand
#

this is something I'll definitely have to keep in mind for the future

#

okay, thank you c squared, lister boys, knief, mango, and JessicaK

#

I appreciated this a lot Loves

grand idol
#

I'm curious that how does this formula come out? And when do I gonna use it on my exams during trigonometry tho....

lusty osprey
#

now

#

draw a line perpendicular to a to the bottom right point

#

what's the length of this line?

grand idol
#

draw a line from the perpendicular you mean?

pastel vault
grand idol
pastel vault
grand idol
lusty osprey
#

like this

livid hound
#

this also works

grand idol
#

so using pythagorus Theorm, then is going to be $b^2= \frac{1}{2} a^2 + (line)^2$

livid hound
#

no

wraith daggerBOT
#

Bleach_Enjoyer

livid hound
#

where's 1/2 a^2 coming from

grand idol
livid hound
#

no

#

also that'd be (1/2 a)^2, but still no
the perpendicular line isn't guaranteed to bisect a

#

also no need for pythag here

grand idol
#

perhaps sine rule?

livid hound
#

overkill

#

just basic right triangle trig

grand idol
#

$sinC = \frac{line}{b}$

livid hound
#

use capital C for the angle

grand idol
wraith daggerBOT
#

Bleach_Enjoyer

livid hound
#

yes

grand idol
#

so line is going to be $b*sinC = line$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Bleach_Enjoyer

livid hound
#

yes

grand idol
#

to find the area of triangle

#

since i know the line length is just that

pastel vault
livid hound
#

that line is the altitude relative to side a
from there its just
Area = 1/2 base * height

pastel vault
#

that height is perpendicular to side a

grand idol
#

the line is the height

livid hound
#

when considering a as the base

grand idol
#

put in we got $Area_of_triangle = \frac{1}{2} (a) (bsinC)$

livid hound
#

yeh

wraith daggerBOT
#

Bleach_Enjoyer

livid hound
#

And when do I gonna use it on my exams during trigonometry tho....
you can use this to find the area when you have two sides and the angle in between

pastel vault
#

it's just as natural as the sine or cosine rules

#

it's like the other main formula for mensuration and trig

grand idol
#

and also cosine rule

livid hound
#

(or form a relation to find one of the relevant sides / angle depending on what you're given)

grand idol
#

alr that helps thanks'

How do I go on with this ( I am not a native English speaker so sorry if I say something incorrectly )

turbid bramble
#

Our teacher gave us this problem I have to do it by tomorrow I am stuck on this one I tried multiple methods none work

slender ginkgo
#

,rccw

wraith daggerBOT
turbid bramble
#

I can't get it still is there a formula or something?

slender ginkgo
#

might be a little bruteforce here but

#

conjugation?

#

lemme try first

turbid bramble
#

K

mighty shuttle
#

Need to prove $\frac{ sin(x)-cos(x)+1}{sin(x)-cos(x)-1} = \frac{1}{sec(x)-tan(x)}$?

wraith daggerBOT
turbid bramble
#

Yeah

mighty shuttle
#

Start by wrting the right in terms of sin and cos

turbid bramble
#

I found this in a book and this makes no sense to me pls explain

slender ginkgo
#

,eccentric

turbid bramble
slender ginkgo
#

,rccw

wraith daggerBOT
turbid bramble
#

The book seems to solve lhs

slender ginkgo
#

It’s really conjugation

turbid bramble
#

I can't really understand what it soes

turbid bramble
slender ginkgo
#

Rationalising

turbid bramble
#

Hmm

glass sky
turbid bramble
#

I just know sec is 1/cos and tan is sin/cos

turbid bramble
#

Rationalising te denominater

#

I see

glass sky
slender ginkgo
glass sky
#

is that clear?

glass sky
turbid bramble
#

Cos theta common?

glass sky
#

taking costheta comon here

#

do you see it?

turbid bramble
#

Oh

#

So sin changes to tan

#

And 1 to sec

glass sky
#

yeah cayse sin / cos

#

yep

turbid bramble
#

Hmmm

#

Then in the 3rd step what do they do

glass sky
#

next step is realising the conjugate

#

rearanging to group in conjugate

turbid bramble
turbid bramble
turbid bramble
glass sky
#

(a-b)c = ac - bc
and
(a+b)(a-b) = a^2-b^2

#

these two are used here

#

can you see it

turbid bramble
#

Ahhhh I see it now

#

Makes sense

#

The book doesn't show full steps

#

Makes it kinda confusing for a guy like m

glass sky
#

it is an asspull of a question , going rhs to lhs was prol better

turbid bramble
#

Hmm

glass sky
#

its okay practice a bit!!

#

you will be fine

meager dock
#

[(6 ∛250x^5y^4)+(4 ∛54x^7y)]/∛2x^2y

meager dock
#

this guy challenged me to solve it

tropic oxide
#

this is not an equation and there's nothing to solve

#

also do you have a picture of the problem as originally stated

meager dock
#

then ig hes trolling or some shit

ember heath
#

..

#

no hes not

#

aim is to factorize it

#

what have u tried

meager dock
#

nothing

ember heath
#

so u want us to solve it for u?

tropic oxide
#

full factorize

meager dock
#

help me solve it

tropic oxide
#

ok so uhhhhh

meager dock
#

please

tropic oxide
#

i guess we have to assume that this means $\frac{6 \sqrt[3]{250x^5y^4} + 4 \sqrt[3]{54x^7y}}{\sqrt[3]{2x^2y}}$ or something?

wraith daggerBOT
meager dock
#

i guess so yeah

ember heath
#

yeah its a little tough to understand whats inside the cube root and whats not

tropic oxide
#

is DMing the guy to clarify what is and isn't under the root an option

meager dock
#

yes

tropic oxide
#

ok do that

#

anyway do you know how to handle radicals in general

meager dock
#

"anything after the root is under"

tropic oxide
#

k then we just have to go with my reading

meager dock
#

okay

#

do we like

#

raise everything to 3

#

to get rid of the 3√

tropic oxide
#

no

#

what i would notice here is that $\sqrt[3]{250}$ factorizes as $\sqrt[3]{125 \cdot 2}$ and hence as $5 \sqrt[3]{2}$

wraith daggerBOT
meager dock
#

is the 6 outside of it part of the root

tropic oxide
#

it's outside

meager dock
#

or just there to be multiplied

tropic oxide
#

it is there to be multiplied

meager dock
#

okay okay

tropic oxide
#

it may also help to pull out perfect cubes on the variables i.e. to break x^5 as x^3 * x^2, x^7 as x^6 * x and similarly for the y's

meager dock
#

so for 3√2x^2y

#

it could also be written as

#

$3√2x\cdotx\cdoty$

\cdot is like a command, if you make it \cdotx it tries to do the command "cdotx" which is an error, but if you do \cdot x it does the command "cdot" then adds an x

blazing zephyr
meager dock
#

isnt that in the fraction tho?

blazing zephyr
#

there is no fraction

meager dock
#

oh

blazing zephyr
#

unless you mean in the radical, it is not as it is before it

meager dock
#

can you help me solve it then

blazing zephyr
#

just divide

meager dock
#

$\frac{6 \sqrt[3]{250x^5y^4} + 4 \sqrt[3]{54x^7y}}{\sqrt[3]{2x^2y}}$

wraith daggerBOT
blazing zephyr
#

divide each term in the numerator with the denominator

meager dock
#

hold up.

#

what if..

#

i multiply by $\sqrt[3]{2x^2y}$

wraith daggerBOT
meager dock
#

to the whole fraction

#

to get rid of the denominator

blazing zephyr
#

then it wont be equal anymore

meager dock
#

wait its not an equation tho..

#

yeah

#

mb

#

can you help me solve this

#

find the values for which the curve y=x^2+kx+(4k-15) is completely above the x-axis.

#

"completely above the x axis

#

so D>0?

#

||<@&286206848099549185> ||

blazing zephyr
meager dock
#

:D

#

and then its just a quadratic you equate with zero right

#

the lesser value will be < and the bigger value will be >

blazing zephyr
#

i think0

wind meteor
#

For y=x^2+kx+(4k-15) to always be positive for all x ("above the x-axis"), the discriminant must be less than zero not greater.

blazing zephyr
#

oh yeah whoops

#

my bad

#

continuation should still be basically the same

meager dock
#

wait what???

#

how

wind meteor
#

A positive discriminant means there are roots, so the parabola is crossing the x axis. You dont want that (since you want the parabola to be completely above the x axis).

tough finch
#

Just take out (2x²y)^(1/3) in each term

meager dock
#

what is parabola

tough finch
#

Inside everything remains a whole cube

meager dock
#

is it the x intercepts

tough finch
meager dock
#

the part of the graph that instersects the x axis

meager dock
#

is it like wrong

tough finch
#

all continuous graphs of an equation with real roots are curves

tough finch
meager dock
#

not a polynomial curve

blazing zephyr
meager dock
#

is there a specific term

#

for a polynomial curve

Why am I discounting the already discounted 3000 dollar PDV? In picture 1 I find the PDV by dividing 150 by 0.05, which equals 3000. Later down in the text I discount it again by dividing with 1.05. Why?

need help with this question

cedar kilnBOT
rapid mauve
#

what have you tried so far?

blazing zephyr
flat flax
#

how to find the are of the flowers

rapid mauve
#

you have big rectangle and small rectangle. you are told that flowers are planted on area outside small rectangle

flat flax
#

yea

rapid mauve
#

so what is the area of the flowers in terms of the area of the rectangles?

flat flax
#

x+1m*x+2m?

rapid mauve
#

i see you're trying to find the area of the big rectangle, not the flowers (which is the unshaded region)

#

and that would also be incorrect unfortunately, because the length of the shaded region is not x

#

please look carefully at your question and see what the length of the shaded region is

flat flax
#

the length of the shaded rectangle is 2x and with is x so isnt x2x+(x+12x+2)=100

rapid mauve
#

i don't quite get your notation. could you write it out perhaps?

#

or use ^ to denote exponent/powers

flat flax
#

Xx2X+(X+1x2X+2)=100

rapid mauve
#

i'm sorry, i'm still confused

flint cape
#

It's -

rapid mauve
#

there are too many X and x here

#

could you write it down on paint or pen and paper?

flat flax
#

ok wait

flint cape
#

Actually wait

#

No

rapid mauve
flint cape
#

They're using * for multiplication

rapid mauve
#

not _

#

_ is underline

flint cape
#

Discord underlining requires TWO underscores on either side

rapid mauve
#

oh one _ does italics, two do underlining

#

sorry

flint cape
#

He'd typed x*2x+(x+1*2x+2)=100

rapid mauve
#

yeah but even with this notation it's still unclear and i think he needs a couple more brackets

flat flax
rapid mauve
#

is this an x?

flat flax
#

Yes😅

rapid mauve
#

this is incorrect. where did the x(2x) come from?

flat flax
#

The area of the shaded rectangle

rapid mauve
#

but the area of the shaded rectangle is already included in the area of the big rectangle

#

you are counting that area twice now

flat flax
#

Ohh my bad,now i understand

rapid mauve
#

now try again

flat flax
#

Yea now the given quadratic is coming

#

Now how to find x

rapid mauve
#

what's your current quadratic

flat flax
#

x^2+2x-49=0

rapid mauve
#

do you know the quadratic formula?

flat flax
#

No

rapid mauve
#

completing the square?

#

do i assume k as 1 ?

#

didnt seem to work

you shouldn't assume k is anything yet

crisp lynx
#

i know

#

you need to find what k is equal to

crisp lynx
#

yes

void sand
#

any ideas? holoapple

ember heath
void sand
#

on how to proceed, that is

crisp lynx
#

it wouldve been easy if there was nothing in denominator

drifting cedar
#

try multiplying both sides by (3x + 1)

void sand
ember heath
#

firstly @crisp lynx when does a quadratic equation have both roots real

crisp lynx
#

when its equal to 0 ?

ember heath
#

no

#

do u know what a discriminant is?

crisp lynx
#

when its D>0

ember heath
crisp lynx
#

okay yes

ember heath
#

and tell me if u can see what comes next

crisp lynx
#

okay lets see

#

do i multiply them

ember heath
#

multiply what

void sand
#

@crisp lynx try to turn the given equation into a quadratic equation catthink

#

you can then use properties of the discriminant to deduce the values of k for which the quadratic (and thus the original equation) have two real roots MenheraSalute4

crisp lynx
void sand
#

,rotate

wraith daggerBOT
void sand
crisp lynx
#

Oh

#

Right i

void sand
# crisp lynx

also, there's no need to actually calculate the roots

#

use the discriminant catthink

crisp lynx
#

no?

#

oh

#

so now i have to use the quadratic formula on the quadratic i got from the determinant of the original eq

void sand
crisp lynx
#

yes that

#

can ya explain the logic behind that

void sand
#

recall the following fact:

given a quadratic ax^2 + bx + c, the discriminant is the expression b^2 - 4ac

crisp lynx
#

thats right

void sand
#

if the discriminant is greater than 0, then the quadratic has two real roots

#

if it's equal to 0, then it has one real root

#

and if it's less than 0, then it has no real roots

#

this is what you really want to be using

crisp lynx
#

since it was mentioned the quad has real roots

#

i get it now

normal seal
#

Remove all perfect squares from inside the square root, √175. I understand the factoring, but not how to add them together to get the final answer.

pseudo sage
#

I think I understand

#

so basically

#

175 is prime factorization 5 * 5 * 7

#

so we have sqrt(5^2 * 7)

#

We can separate the square roots, so sqrt(5^2) * sqrt(7)

#

Therefore the answer is 5 * sqrt(7)

normal seal
#

Do you need to put 5^2 for a reason or is it to simplyfy things? and how do you know which one ends up squared for the answer?

pseudo sage
#

It just depends on the prime factorization

#

Try sqrt(48)

normal seal
#

2^4 3?

#

So will prime numbers always be with the root?

pseudo sage
#

yes

#

now sqrt that

yes, that's right
