yes those are the cases.
You had me for a sec there.
They were already there.
1, 21, 19
you're missing a solution
Hmm
Ah and -1
But I have to test that they work
1 doesn’t work
Nor does 19
21 and -1 work tho
Right?
They equal -20
wdym by "they"
the absolute value of which is?
You used passive voice as well
That matters... why?
Why the absolute on -20
???
I thought the absolute valuenn but is on the lhs
wdym by "they"
plug all 4 of those values into the LHS and you get 20
where is the passive voice
what exactly are you saying is -20 when plugging in x=1
the answer is obviously "whatever the right answer is to that question that'll get you off my back because i hate being interrogated"
Yes
No
Did you even read what Ramonov said?
that wasn't a yes/no question
Some have 2 gave -20 and 2 gave 20
tell me exactly what you did that led to -20
when plugging x=1 into the lhs
(of the original equation)
1-20-1=-20
.
Find all the real solutions to $$\abs{x^2-20x-1} = 20$$
Shuri2060
the left side of the original equation is
$$|x^2-20x-1|$$
and for some reason it seems that you're completely ignoring the existence of those absolute value bars

@velvet mason you can go ahead my question is not that urgent
it's already your channel
ok
what is your question
Question is how do I find the normal Line
No it’s fine I’m in channel 1 now
Ok thanks
You found it already tho
lol
pretty good guess tbh
I saw a similar answer in the example problem
so... follow the soln in the example problem?
lol They don't show the step by step solution
I doubt that
They gave this instead
if you were able to follow it enough, without steps, to get to the correct answer
Use the point-slope form
y − f(a) = f '(a)(x − a)
to find the equations of the tangent line and the normal line.
I used this to find the first part. But then guessed the second part
Ok but:
You followed a solution to get the normal line
So... there is sufficient information in the solution you read to get to the answer.
I guessed the solution to the normal line. What is the step by step process?
find the slope and a point.
slope is 3
slope of the normal line
then what
It looks like slope of tangent line - inverse slope
normal and tangent are perpendicular
there is a known relationship b/w their slopes then.
what does the 3 in the normal line formula represent?
....
then the -x/3
You've worked with linear equations.... right?
So I shouldn't have to answer what the +3 and -1/3 mean in the normal like equation
Find the slope of the line:
Find a point on the line:
Find the equation of the line:
I said this already
Oh now I get
took me while lol
Thanks

Hello, I have problem with this one. To be honest I was struggling trying the methods our teacher showed but rip can't get it right (I'm writing on teams, I used to earase all of it before I found this server :') Can you just show me please how to get it right from the start with every step?
Hi
So basically
Youll need to use the trigonometric circle
As you can see for the cosx=-1/2
If you use soh cah toa you’ll realise that the cos of an angle will give you a distance on the x axis
Whereas sin of an angle will give you a distance on the y axis
Do you understand @twilit crane ?
To be honest not really, the teacher just showed us a video of these, can I dm you link to this video to show what I mean?
its ok ill explain everything you need to know
Just tell me what you understand about trigonometry
do you understand soh cah toa ?
or sin=o/h …
cos=a/h
Tan=o/a
Yup yup
alr then
Sketch a circle like this one
The radius is 1
unit
Thats why there is no angle that can give you a cos of a higer value than 1
yeah it's the quadratic circle
ok since you understand that the cos of an angle is the x value and sin the y value
You agree that when it says cosx=-1/2
it means that the x value is -1/2 ?
Right ?
On the circle ?
U here @twilit crane ?
Yes, watching everything
Did you draw a circle on your notepad ?
Sorry I'm little translating, it's not my first language, never tried write about math before
Yes I got it
Do you speak french?
Unfortunetly no, my first language is polish
Yes
Ok and what you’re trying to find is an angle that will give you a distance of -1/2 right ?
The problem is that there are 2 angles that will give you an x of -1/2
The calculator will give you one of them, however you might want to know the other.
Thats why you will have to adjust the answer that the calculator gave you in order to find the other
The trigonometric circle will help you visualize the other one
Okay
I'm sorry I feel stressed can't clear my mind and think about it.. I don't want to take your time and bother you, I'm so sorry and thank you so much that you wanted to help me but It can be really hard to solve this in this situation..
It's a shame but can't lie about it
its okay i have time
Don't you mind drawing and showing this on image? Maybe I can understand it better
ok ill draw another circle
Do you see the 2 angles that both will give an answer of cosx=-1/2 ?
Yes now it's more clear to see
the angles also create a triangle
thats why their answer is a distance
Lenght
Or height
Ok now if you write arccos(-1/2) or cos^-1(-1/2) in your calculator
It will give you as an answer one of the 2 angles
you can then find the other one by doing some simple arithmetic
@twilit crane Has your question been resolved?
my calculator gives both bcz I got CAS 🤣
If you have it, you can try getting the other solution like that
Otherwise it's a matter of adding PI

Hey Cenni, looks like a struggle
Right?
a bit rusty on algebraic manipulation?
Yep. I can see that
is there an easy way i’m missing?
$\int \frac{15}{4(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 +25} \dd{x}$
Ansh
I think I can proceed from here
No wait
of course you can but I'm kind of concerned seeing your approach from earlier
mhmm. yk, whenever I'm exposed such a dilemma, I write the two "to be similar" forms side by side and compare each step
like here you want your expression into an arctan form
yes, I did this also
$\int \frac{15}{4(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 +25} \dd{x}$ vs $\int \frac{1}{y^2 +1} \dd{y}$
Ansh
dy?
here.. notice what stuff fits where
can I consider y to be 2(x-1/2)?
yeah that works
$\frac{15}{25} \int \frac{1}{\frac{4}{25}(x-\frac{1}{2})^2 +1} \dd{x}$ vs $\int \frac{1}{y^2 +1} \dd{y}$
Ansh
Ah.. now they kinda look like twins :o
yeah that’s it
the integral I mean
ye i’m not a baby
XD
what's your "y" going to be then?
2/25(x-1/2)
🙅
egh I meant 2/5
mhmm
now to take the derivative
also, don't forget to adjust your "dx" to "dy" accordingly
I am not sure I see why we changed to dy
👀 wdym "why" ... we were comparing the two no?
well I just simplified it
if your "y" is 2/5 (x - 1/2), there's gonna be something going on between "dx" vs "dy" as well no?
you want me to say dx=D(y) dy?
ahem kinda 👀
dy = 2/5 dx in this case
so you need to adjust that factor 2/5 x in as well
Just add 5/2 outside of the integral
💠 ✅
Ansh
as it'll help simplify your future problems a bit ._.
you just did XD
$\int \frac{15}{(2x-1)^2 +25} \dd{x}$
Ansh
looks similar :o
should I treat it like a special case? I mean it’s just some manipulation
Sure I will
Have fun integrating

Can someone please help me? I have (c1)v + (c2)w + (c3)u = 0 only and don’t know where to go
That's backwards. You want to end with that, you don't want to start with it
Take everything in the "suppose". Write them as equations.
Or wait, are you doing a contrapositive? That could work too
Thank you, so (c1)u + c2(v) + (c3)w = 0. I think I’m supposed to take the dot product of something but not sure what
I’m not sure what a contrapositive is so probably not
What if I just dot v w and u by each of the respective 3 parts of my equation
Can I do this?
this is nonsense
write down the definition of them being orthogonal to each other. that's the only information you're given.
Right, so v•w = 0 etc
I get that part but I’m not sure how else to use it if I don’t dot a vector by a vector
Thanks tho
What if I just dot v w and u by each of the respective 3 parts of my equation
this isnt a valid move
Oh yes sorry that really is a little weird
A friend said to dot through by v1, is that correct?
Sorry just v*
Ok dot products for sure, but do you think I can dot it all by v?
Thank you!!
I’ll do that and show you one second
use dot product properties & ur assumptions
Actually this doesn’t look like it’s working out
Pretty sure my brackets are wrong too. Dot both sides? So even the 0?
Thanks. So = 0•v on the other side. But then what? v•v is not zero
also dots are needed for each dot product
It’s ||v||2
$v\cdot($stuff )
Length of 2
RokabeJintaro
now recall ur assumptions
Ok so like this
Yes my assumptions I see
But the problem is v•v isn’t 0
Length of v squared?
thats not a problem, in fact it helps us
recall we're showing linear independence
so we must show c1=c2=c3=0
exactly what assumptions am i talking about?
do u know what 0.v is?
Assumptions about orthogonal vectors? The ones mentioned in the question
0
Right? Unless it’s incorrect and I’m missing something but I hope it’s 0
OH
Hahaha I’m dumb
what do u get now?
can I just stop at c2 (length of v)^2 = 0? C2 must be zero
$c_2(v\cdot v)=0$
RokabeJintaro
C2 must be zero, right? There’s no way another scalar can get us 0
No way I didn’t know we can divide
That’s cool
I think this is finally correct
Thank you soooo much!
I really appreciate it this was driving me nuts
RokabeJintaro
$2\ne0$ so u can divide by 2
RokabeJintaro
$x=1$
RokabeJintaro
I thought uni linear algebra was a unique concept with no division
So it’s not right? I have to keep going or is this an example? Bc I can’t register this
scalars are fancy name for numbers
Oh thank god this is an example
all the highschool algebra laws apply to scalars
Ohhhh
Thank you that makes sense
Do you think I’ve sufficiently proved c2 = 0 or is there another hidden step? Because I’m not sure of anything with this course
u only showed c2=0
That’s true I see ur point
Ok I’ll do the same thing except with vectors w and u
Thank you you’re a lifesaver
exactly, and np
Have a good one

I can't figure out the number of pairs as asked
I've tried putting values as 1 and 2 for x and y but that won't be a good solution
Can anybody help?
of..?
Yeah like that's the issue
I don't know the source
My friend sent me
@gentle lintel can you help solve it?
<@&286206848099549185>
Well one obvious attempt is $x^3 +y^3 +n^3 -3nxy =m +n^3$
Ansh
Yes
and x+y+n =0 gives you an infinite pair (x, y) of solutions, given m + n^3 = 0
Right
So it's like m = -n³
And we have to figure out the values 2014 can take by considering 1 as n or anything else?
the point is... u need to find "all possible" m, n such that (x, y) have infinite integer solutions
Yes
not just x+y+n=0
Is that even possible?
@worn rapids Has your question been resolved?
Oh
,w plot x^3 + y^3 = 1-3xy
1 and -1 you mean
maybe if you could show x + y + n = 0, is the only solution :o
Oh
Then the possible ordered pairs would be technically all the numbers from -2014 to 2014
Right?
not really
Cause n can take all values from -2014 to 2014 and if m is -n³ then it would definitely be within the range
Oh
you also need the condition: $n^3 + m = 0$ to be fulfilled
Ansh
so basically, $-2014 < -n^3 < 2014$ should do the trick
I was thinking of underrots
Ansh
Yes
$-12\leq n \leq 12$
Ansh
smh
$f(x, y) = (x^3 + y^3 + n^3 - 3xyn)$
Ansh
Yes
is independent of "x, y"
Yes
so must be 0?
I didn't understood here
😅
Oh yeah got it
Like x³ + y³ - 3xyn you replaced it with -n³
So it's like the zero of the equation
And independent of x and y
Right?
i'm quite lost here lol. the intent should be showing x + y + n =0 is the only possible place you could get infinite soln.
but uhh, the solution isn't very convincing
you should check the official soln. or something
$(x+y+n)$ divides $m + n^3$ for all x, y
Ansh
Yeah that's it I think
Oh
But that's like 0 divides m + n³ for all x and y
Oh yeah that's why it's infinite solutions
So now the answer should be 25?

-12 ≤ n ≤ 12
Yep
I can't find any other. Again, it's only a hunch lol.. An official soln. would truly help
or ask your friend for one

This is official solutions and part b is confusing me
@fallen heath
Ah sorry
what's confusing about the second part though? 👀
I don't get how drawing the graphs helps with saying that Right hand riemann is too large
like how it proves the point
I kind of get why they broke down the graph (riemann rectangles) but the rest is all confusion to me
"kind of" is not good enough 👀 do you, for sure, get why they broke down the graph?
Ok yeah I don't get why
$f(x) = x^2 \sin (2x)$ right?
Ansh
yes
from 0 to pi/2 this graph is positive, lying above the x-axis right?
yes
I mean, x² is obviously always positive so the only reason for the minus sign comes from the non-grateful sin (2x) term
okie
so .. what happens after pi/2 then?
the graph goes under the x-axis for a while
and the integral: the area under the curve changes it's sign
yeah this is the part I don't get
when I looked at the graph of sinx and cosx
I thought that it'd result in 0
right...
very confused why they drew sinx and cosx separately
ah because :O there exists people who tend to not understand sin(2x) and wish to break it down to sine and cosine x
well, anyways 👀 if you understand the sign changes in sin(2x), that's good enough
your next reasoning is: from 0 to pi/2, the graph is +ve, i.e., above the x-axis and so, the area of this region, say Area A is +ve
However, this curve is governed by the sin(2x) factor which is always between 0 and 1 in this interval, and so, the max the area can go is the same as the curve x² (which is just hypothetical)
For the next part however, the sign has changed but your interval starts from (pi/2) this time upto (2pi).... the curve y = x² this time would be vast compared to the previous one and the factor sin(2x) being periodic.. would assist you in claiming that the area of this region > area of the previous region
.
.
Put together with the fact that this area actually came along with a minus sign, plus the negative area is greater than the previous positive one, you'd also have the conclusion that: integral of f(x) from 0 to pi is actually -ve
similarly for the next two intervals and you can conclude that the net area is actually -ve and far from 0 at that
I need time to digest this brb
@thorn grail Has your question been resolved?
So this kind of proof is only valid for periodic functions

let's say I know that the population mean score for some test is 100, and I know that the standard deviation for the population is 15. let's say I have a guy take this test on two different occasions. let's say the first time he scored 85 and the second time he scored 115. I want to try to figure out if this was a significant leap or not.
my first guess based on google searching is to try to set up some sort of a t-test where each score is one of the means, and the sample size of each would be one. but most of the formulas I'm seeing want something like the standard deviation for each sample. the problem is that with a sample size of one, there won't be any deviation. so this doesn't work.
so what can I do? I can tell obviously that the two scores are two standard deviations apart. can I use that to say that the two scores are significantly different from each other and likely not due to chance?
this isn't for any sort of class. I'm looking more for an answer about how to solve this problem. I haven't taken a math class since 2008, so my math is really rusty.
if it helps, I also know that the population score distribution is normal
@smoky ridge Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> I would settle for a link that teaches me about this sort of problem. I'm not versed enough in stats to know what all my options might be :(
look up hypothesis testing
if I'm not mistaken, I thought hypothesis testing was for comparing a score to a (theoretical) mean. so I could take one of the guy's scores and compare it to the population mean of 100 and determine if he significantly deviates from that. correct?
would hypothesis testing help me determine if his first score is significantly different from his second score?
you'll need to define a theoretical distribution of this guy's first score
say, you expect his mean to be 85 and so and so
then you can do a hypo testing
do I need to also assume what this guy's standard deviation would be? or can I use the population standard deviation?
thank you for the help by the way.
you need to assume it
hmm. okay.
thank you for your help. i think this means that there just isn't a good way to scientifically determine if the two scores are significantly different from each other with the given information.
the problem when you're talking about a single guy's ability/test scores, is that the population statistics have zero impact on how well he's expected to do
yeah
a priori he has a native ability level which doesn't depend on the population
so when you're trying to determine if he improved or something, you have to compare with that native level, not with the population
yeah. that makes sense. it's disappointing, but if that's just how it is then it can't be helped.
thank you.

lesson is rationalizing denominators
how about u learn how to rationalize?
wdym
wdym
why would the negative go on top tho
u see the new minus in the deno?
kermit can i ask how to get help and create my own chat
yes
just multiply by conjugate i'm not sure why the other person wants you to factor out the negative lol
I see
so the conjugate would look likee
5/-4 + root 5
times
to make it "look" easy
5(-4-root 5)/ -4 - root 5?
the conjugate would just be the reversed sign of whatever's in the denominator:
it really doesn't make it look any easier(?) hmm
$\frac{4+\sqrt{5}}{4+\sqrt{5}}$
Yone
ohh
so the negative in the 4 t urns into positive
so it would be times 5 (4 +root 5)/ 4 +root 5?
kids don't like to see the deno as
$\frac{\sqrt{5}+4$
kermit😏

what
as sqrt5 - 4 whose conjugate then becomes sqrt5 +4
no the point of rationalizing the denominator is so that you don't have to deal with surds (in the denominator obv)
yes there is no dealing with surds
sooo how wld it look like
numerator is fine but denominator is not fine; it should rather be (-4+root(5)) * (4+root(5)) which should ofc result in an integer value
the end product (well not really the end) but the coherent followup of multiply w the conjugate would be something like this:
$\frac{5\left(4+\sqrt{5}\right)}{\left(-4+\sqrt{5}\right)\left(4+\sqrt{5}\right)}$
Yone
hmm
expand the denominator and you'll see that you indeed end up with an integer value
meaning
try expanding the denominator? you'll see what i mean
yes; but do u see the problem with @toxic garden is to realize that the conjugate of -4+root(5) is 4+root(5)
how do I do that
the conjugate of x-y is x+y so if you simply switched the signs there is no relevance of factoring out the negative other than adding an extra step(?)
i mean like.. multiply (-4+root(5)) (4+root(5))
people don't see -4+root(5) as [root(5) - 4]
whose conjugate, easily, then is root(5) + 4
is it 4 + 5?
yes U ARE CORRECT. but @toxic garden doesn't know this u see lol
yep.
no
what
a shortcut to multiplication w the conjugate would just be squaring both the terms (-4)^2 + (root(5))^2
with the sqrt ofc
anyway if you manually multiplied you'd get -16 + 5 = -11 not 4+5
okay... lol but the addition of an extra step doesn't change the fact that you still need to multiply but sure...
so thats 5(4 + root 5) / -11?
or is it not
exactly. lol
sure
is it not
sure as in yeah it's fine
what does that mean
that's it
if you want to expand you can do that but otherwise leaving it this way is also fine
it's equivalent to what you have
notice you have a negative on the denominator (-11)
I TOLD YOU RIGHT LOL
yes
which is equivalent to having a negative sign on the numerator
you might have to brush up on your fundamentals lol
yea
but yes i guess
so either way its the same answer?
yess
ahhhh alrr
i mean yeah if it happens to follow this exact scenario

Literally have no clue what the hell to do here....
Like I drew the two circles....and that's it
I don't know how to even approach this problem
Graph on desmos
The answer key says this is the answer... but some of my classmates were saying it was a typo and it was supposed to be = 1
But I tried graphing that and it doesn't make sense...
did u graph the supposed to be one graph and did it make sense
No it didn't
may i suggest plotting the centers of both circles on your desmos graph
theres something geometric that you can derive here
are those supposed to be like foci of my answer...?
dunno
locus simply means a relation between x and y. in short terms, the question is asking you for the "Equation of a circle" whose tangent.....
to the centers...
i'm so confused is the answer supposed to be a circle or an ellipse
ok so my math teacher must've been like on something when writing the answers then lmao
but apparently other students are getting similar answers to him....?
idk how
ask the 'other students'?! hehehe
let O1 be the center of the big circle
and O2 be the center of the small circle
and also let r_1 and r_2 be their radii
and let P be the center of a circle tangent internally to the big circle and externally to the small
and let r be its radius
then we have $O_1P + r = r_1$ and $O_2P - r = r_2$
Ann
thus $O_1P + O_2P = r_1 + r_2$
Ann
okay so yeah it'll be an ellipse with foci the centers of your two circles
I am still so lost lmao
ohkay so i misread the question here; nowhere is mentioned it WILL be a circle
what does this even look like...
wait what
ok i think i'm misunderstanding external vs internal tangent
wait what....it's supposed to be externally/internally tangent to eh centers though

How do I prove the divergence of this?
can't figure out a comparison test
$y = e^{-x}, , x > 0$
Ansh
⁉️
doesn't that tend to 0?
Does! but really so bad as an example
I gotta ask: divergence?
it's diverging tho I believe :o cause the periodic hitting the 0 🤦♂️
don't think I really understand this sentence 😛
divergent integrals...?
...this is absolutely convergent yknow
huh?
🤔
so uh
how do i prove its convergence?
🤣
i get here and i'm like "oh shit why did i spend the whole lesson playing video games"
this is probably my fault
Well, you could always integrate by parts, but an easier way is to look at \int |5e^(-t)sin2t|
hmmm, yeah saw it
Sorry typing with one hand is pain
hm
\int |5e^(-t)sin2t|
so basically i should look at this part and...?
oh-
got it now
thanks
and video gameee timeee 🙊

$y = e^{-x}, , x > 0$
Ansh
$y = sin 2x, , x > 0$
Ansh
one is always < 1 and the other is at max 1
so if both converges, the big one converges?
can easily find a function to compare: e^{-x} here
kk thanks

help
no
AG is obv the vector from A to G
no no i mean-
i think its talking about points A and G on the cube
what is it a diagonal of
idk tho
i am trying to make a question that will lead you to the answer
💀
yeah idk
naw i dont
ok so its ze diagonal
ok
bruh honestly idk im probably gonna drop this class loll, i missed 3 lessons already im hella lost😭
do you know how to add vectors?
u proly not in the right server bro- and wait wdym drop-
nope...
theres ur problem
like leave the class
its not hard tho
ok do u mind explaining it?
sure :)
🙏
see the little arrows? that denotes a vector
yeah
vectors can be thought of arrows with a length and a direction in space
ohhh ok
and they add like so ^, from head to tail
okok so then how would i get an answer?
It's like connecting two positions together using the path defined :o
Say I were to visit you.. and I can only reach you via Detox.. so I first go to Detox and then Detox takes me to you
ohhh ok that makes sense
so i wouldnt have to do any calculations for this question then just draw the lines?
🐖 similarly,in your question, you move from A to B, then B to C, then C to G
so try to figure out how you would add vectors a, b and c to get to the desired vector
since its a cube, a vector from B to C can also be used to get from A to D, E to H, F to G
alright so
a) AG = a + b + c?
b) CH = -a + c
c) DF = c - b + a
would that be the answer?
yup!
ok thank you so much🙏
good job
how do i end this loll

hi, i just want to ask for some advice with learning math for undergraduate physics as well as relevant physics olympiads
my friend recommend me to read math methods
but i find that to be quite dense and it doesn't seem to give an intuitive understanding of the math concepts presented
so is there a better way to learn math for my purpose ?
This might be better asked on the physics server tbh
Math for math and math for physics can be quite different, esp in competitions and uni

So I have to calculate tan(2𝛼 + 𝛽) where tan 𝛼 = −1,5 and tan 𝛽 = −2, I'm really confused as it's been a while.
There's formulas, I know, but that's exactly why I'm confused.
This is what confuses me a bit.
So just replace it with the tan(alpha)?
Yeah i
Man this stuff is so easy that it messes with my head sometimes.
I mean just think as the alpha beta in the brackets are variables

hey i need help
what have you tried
What are you having trouble with
Do you know what perimeter is
yeah
like a boundry of the shape and u have to get the lenth of it
So how would you do the very bottom left one for example
bottom left wouldnt that be adding them all
Yes
Use your circumference formula
pi * diameter
Or 2 pi r
But keep in mind some are only half of a circles circumference
ok
ok so i take the circumfrence of the circle and add it to the rest of the stuff right
Yes
Just keep in mind that if the bottom part of the semi circle isn't part of the perimeter just use pi r
could u do q2 part 2 so i can just see if im doing it right
Have you done it already?
Yeah about
Np
