You don't need to do that
Have you learnt the cosine rule for triangles yet?
Not with isosceles triangles no
It doesn't matter what kind of triangle it is, it'll always apply
Oh
The one that says cos(theta) = (a^2 + b^2 - c^2)/(2*a*b)
I think I remember
So what is the length of the side you're not given?
24?
I don’t think have the right answer
What do you mean?
I got a large number for it
What did you do?
(32^2 + 24^2 - 24^2)/(2 * 32 * 24)
I got the decimal 0.6667
Which is 2/3
Go ahead
Do you know what $\perp$ and $|$ mean?
castroploiin
Yeah perpendicular and parallel
They’re opposites from each other?
About their sizes, I mean.
Oh they’re similar to each other?
The triangles are similar yes, so what do that tell us about the angles?
There angles must be similar sizes?
Also because they're "vertically opposite."
Oh
So, if we know that in triangle DCE, angle DCE = angle ACB, line CE ~ line AC, and line CD ~ line CB.
What can you say about the angles CED, CAB, and angles ABC, CDE.
They’re similar I think
In similar triangles, the corresponding sides are off by a scale factor, while the corresponding angles are identical.
So those sets of angles have to be equal.
Knowing that, we get a pair of alternating angles
If those 2 angles are equal, the angles are "alternating angles" and the bottom and top line have to be parallel
c
Meaning $\overline{AB} \ | \ \overline{DE}$
castroploiin
So the answer is c.

hi can someone help me? i got it that if n = k then i get δ_n,k = 1
but for n ≠ k it should be 0 but im not able to solve this...
Das sieht schwer aus, studierst du mathe?
haha studiere e technik aber auch mit mathe der mathematiker

You rewrite that sum as
$\sum (-1)^{n-l} \binom{n}{l} \binom{l}{k}=(-1)^{n-k} \binom{n}{k} \sum (-1)^{l-k} \binom{n-k}{l-k}= (-1)^{n-k} \binom{n}{k} (1-1)^{n-k}=0$

how did you calculate in order to get $(-1)^{n-k} \binom{n}{k} (1-1)^{n-k}=0$
ඞDedekindඞ
@willow lotus Has your question been resolved?
if you mean the first step they just used the properties of C(n,r) (i.e. C(n,r)= n!/(r!(n-r)!) to get the C(n,k) term outside
if you are confused about (-1)^(l-k) you can basically use the fact that (-1)^(n+2x)=(-1)^n for all x in integers and use that to prove (-1)^(k-l) = (-1)^(l-k)
if you are confused about the second step they used the bionomial theorem

Solve the equation 2^x=5 exactly and with 3 decimals with the help of
A) 10-logarithm
B) Natural logarithm
sup
im awake and ready
all you need is
isn't this just change of base?
$\log \qty( a^x ) = x \log (a)$
oh lol
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
I overcomplicated it, yeah that works
hmm
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
this itself kinda looks like change of base-y
but this is probably just uneccessary simplification
hmm ok i get it so far
im not sure

wym
x 0.301=0.698
thats one way
what's the other
exactly

i did all the questions in my book and still coulden't answe your question yesterday
what question
idk u were asking smth weird
im trying to remember 
i was not lol
it was something like uhh
so we were doing this
assume theres some number a
such that $b^a = 2$
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
yes
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
but we know from our assumption that b^a = 2
wtf i don't even know this
$b ^{\log _b (2) } = 2$
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
how was i supposed to answer lol
its just log properties
i was trying to show you it doesnt matter what a is
$b^{ \log _b (n) } = n$
always
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
ahhh
now i get it
what was the other way to solve this equation?
x 0.301=0.698
naively

jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
this is the exact answer
tf
wtf
why are we dividing
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
0.4
how did you get that
just multiply with 0.4


it is nothing special
ln2/ln5=x
ok can we try a harder one
👀
solve the equation
A)ln x = 4 ln 2
👀

use what i just told you
this
and these
wym
well this one is
can be reasoned through
rarely you should memoriz something but
$\log x = \log y \longrightarrow x = y$
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
this is nothing special about logs but more the kind of function a log is
what are u tryna say lol
jan Niku (join us for @pomo)
x=4

if i don't memorise the rules how am i supposed to apply them in the test
but you still didnt get the original question right
you used the rule incorrectly
how
.
y= 2^4
okay
huh?
this
derive?


this was wrong btw
it was apparently
2^x ln2
not log
this is dumb but a lot of the time if you see a log in the wild it means natural log
unless its in the context of like
axis scales
then it means log 10

Find the length of PQ, leaving "e" in your answer? P=(0,-e) and Q=(e/2 , 0). I put this in my calculator √[(e/2)-(0)]^2 + [(0)-(-e)]^2
No need to calculator it, since you can leave e in the answer
Simplify is the direction to go
and I get PQ= 3.0391314475 but the answer booklet says 1/2√5e
when i did it without the calculator i got √(5e^2 /4)
they're different answers aren't they?

maybe recheck if u wrote P and Q right and and recheck the answer in the booklet
cuz if the P and Q u have written are right then yeh
ur answer is right
i dont see how it can be 1/2√5e
just checked the answer in the booklet is still 1/2√5e and P & Q respectively. could just be a typo
yeah thought so

they just swapped cos(cos(x)) and -sin(x)
if you want to get formal about it this is an example of the commutative law of multiplication
and nothing else
I think they mean going from the first line to the second
Chain rule
ye but can you explain further
i understand they use chain rule but it seems weird
$(f(g(x))’ = f’(g(x))\cdot g’(x)$
in fact the use of the chain rule couldn't be more transparent here than anything else - this function is literally written as a composition
dk.dkn
It’s easy enough to prove if it makes you uncomfortable
You can even make a substitution for g(x), or clearly define both functions each time if it makes it easier
whered the negative come from?
Derivative of cosine
the derivative of cosx is -simx

Using variations (discrete math): "Find how many teams had taken part in a basketball tournament if there were 21 matches with the system everyone against everyone"
@bright sorrel Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
what is "Using variations"? There is a formula for amount of matches in everyone vs everyone given amount of teams
so its just equation solving
yeah but how do I get a model out of it?
Vx/21=2x?
I have no idea
what?
i'm definitely wrong
a mathematical model
when you have a text problem => making a mathematical model
whether it would be an equation or w/e
using this formula if you know it
Yeah Vk/n
I have n=21
but what's k?
what?
formula is n(n-1)/2
with just keyboard
no idea what you are saying
if you actually knew the formula, yes
but no idea what it was you said
and no don't plug in n=21
n is amount of teams

Hi! Does anyone know how to do box whisker plots?
Yes!
Do you know how to calculate Q1 and Q3?
I know how to, but not off the top of my head
flashcards are great
So is that a yes or no? lol
no sorry I’m not that smart
You don't have to be smart, its just about learning
I know but this math is confusing
So I assume you know how to calculate the median?
Because q1 and q3 use the same method :)
Q1 is just the median of the data in the set under the median
Q3 is the median of the data above the median
@dire geode Did I say something wrong
not at all. i just never thought of it that way

Just a quick question, to find x would that be to do x/17=20/13 or x/20=17/13.
Finding y is kinda hard too, how do I do that?
The triangles are "congruent?" Or smth
This may help, these are the rules for Congruent Triangles. To my understanding, x should be directly proportional to (x+17), I believe the same scale will be used throughout.
Thanks man, what does SSS and ASA mean tho?
SSS = Side Side Side
ASA = Angle Side Angle
In SSS the sides are directly proportional
Oh, I see. What about R?

I need to state which of the two angles has a greater measure. I dont know how or where to start from this equation. can anyone please guide me on how do I answer this?
They should have the same angle measure
If ED is a straight line
And A is a bisector
That means RY is a transversal and thus mRAE and mDAY are equal
Well actually
Lemme see
Maybe they're slightly askew
I dont think they are equal
Which two segments are congruent?
RA and YA according from what I've calculated. the problem is if I dont know if its correct or not
and EA and AD are also congruent from what I've calculated aswell
RA is 6 and YA is 2x. 6/2 = 3 and 3 will be my "x". I use that x for my calculations for AD
I dont know if im going the right direction though.
Well to find the angle, just use your trigomentric ratios
oh ok
What would mRAE be
In terms of known sides
I'm going to assume taht there are 2 right triangles
Well, even if they weren't, you could use law of cosines
Are they two right triangles?
Or is that not given information
they are not given information
Alright then you have to use law of cosines
the question just told us to compare the 2 triangles and say who is greater from those 2
its 3 from what I've gathered.
Yeah
So now let's look at triangle RAE
You have sides 6, 5, and 3
To make things easier, I'm gonna assign 6, 5, and 3 to dummy variables, A, B, and C, respectively
Using law of cosines,
alright
$C^2 = A^2 + B^2 - 2AB\cos{\left(mRAE\right)}$
Umbraleviathan
Plug in the appropriate values for A, B and C, and then solve for mRAE
I gtg but
You basically do this for both triangles

I am considering let $a_{n},b_{n},c_{n},d_{n}$ be number of binary strings satisfying the condition, whose first two terms are 00,10,01,11 respectively. Then $\begin{pmatrix}a_{n}\b_{n}\c_{n}\d_{n}\end{pmatrix}=A \begin{pmatrix}a_{n-1}\b_{n-1}\c_{n-1}\d_{n-1}\end{pmatrix}$ where $A=\begin{pmatrix}1&0&1&0\1&0&1&0\0&1&0&1\0&1&0&0\end{pmatrix}=CDC^{-1}$ is diagonalizable. So you can solve $f_{n}=\begin{pmatrix}1&1&1&1\end{pmatrix} \begin{pmatrix}a_{n}\b_{n}\c_{n}\d_{n}\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}1&1&1&1\end{pmatrix} CD^{n-3}C^{-1} \begin{pmatrix}a_{3}\b_{3}\c_{3}\d_{3}\end{pmatrix}$

Good start. Then you want the limit of the exponent, and L'h can do that
@modest sand move the 16x up, remember ln7+1 is a constant.
take the derivative of the top and bottom respectively and you should get that the bottom goes to zero, and when you take the limit you should get number/0 which is infinity
in the case of a limit, its infinity
remember that a linear function (of the same order) grows faster than a logarythmic one
@modest sand Has your question been resolved?

thx i got it
good job
you sure its not infinity?

I cant figure out how he got H(X|Y=1) = 0 bits
When I use the formula I get values higher than 0
is my approach

Hi, i’ll send a picture and then my question.
“m^2 = (2k^2) = 4k^2 = 6n^2” —> “n^2 is even, so n is even...”
I don’t get why you can make that jump to saying n^2 is even. Can’t n^2 be uneven as well, since 6 = 2k so 6n^2 is 2kn^2 so it doesnt matter if n is uneven or not?
Its about proving square root of 6 cant be rational, by the way
4k^2=6n^2 the power of 2 of the left hand side is at least 2, so n has to be even. Otherwise n is odd, the power of 2 of the right hand side is 1, contradiction
‘The power of 2 ... is at least 2’ sorry, what exactly do you mean by ‘power of 2’? What exactly is at least 2?
I mean in the prime factorization of the left hand side, the index of 2 is greater than or equal to 2
could someone explain that to me? Spell it out? I dont get the technical terms
? I didn’t say any term
Prime factorisation.
Just 4 divides the left hand side right?
So 4 divides the right hand side
If n is odd, 4 doesn’t divide the right hand side, the right hand side would only be divisible by 2, contradiction
Ahh, yes!
So 4 divides the left hand side, so it must also divide the right hand side. But it doesnt divide 6 so it must divide n^2, which is only possible if n is even.

Hey
The function is known to intersect the axis of y at y = 2.
Find a
what have you tried
I tried 2 = a/2x^2+5
if it intersects the y axis, what is the x value?
0
now substitute that in this
you didn't change your x here
I did it before and I got that A = 7
I guess I did + instead of *
Alright, thanks!

Hey
It is known that the functions intersect at the point where x = 0.8
A ) Find K
B ) Are the functions cut at another point besides the given point?
If so-find it.
So I have found K which is 0.48
How do I solve B?
I tried to equal between them and instead of K i wrote 0.48 and I don't get a good answer
show us your working
This is what I did ^
The second picture is A
The first is B
Multiplication by crossover
from $x^2-0.96 = x^4$ to $-0.96 = x^2$?
iCaird
do you see what you did wrong?
not really
okay well you shouldnt be dividing by x^2 anyway, but if you were to divide both sides by x^2, you have to divide everything by x^2
you did not divide -0.96 by x^2
so what the equation should look like
-0.96/x^2 = x^2?
and even then i still cannot really solve this
it would look like $1 - \frac{0.96}{x^2} = x^2$
iCaird
but anyway what you're supposed to do is set $y = x^2$ and then you have a quadratic you can solve
iCaird
wait where did you add that 1 from
$\frac{x^2}{x^2} = 1$
iCaird
yeah you would have to divide everything
but we dont want to do that anyway, it doesnt make anything simlper
iCaird
it we're talking about f(x) then x^2 = x/√x+0.48
not f(x) no
the equation you just sent
we're trying to solve that to find intersection points
this?
yes
ye but where's the y here
its just what we're calling x^2
oh oka
x^2
iCaird
y^2
take $x^2-0.96 = x^4$
iCaird
and write it in terms of y
by how we just discussed
we dont want any x in there, just y
y^2 = y - 0.96
yes!
now this is a quadratic you know and love and can solve
so solve for y using the formula or however you want to
hm?
i meant how can i know i need to understand that i need to divide it just for the exercise
what hints are there
oh yeah basically if you only have even powers of x, you can let y = x^2 and get a polynomial that is half the degree you started with
if we had $x^4 + 5x^3 + 9x^2 + 3 = 0$
iCaird
i see
by the way i got 2 points
-1.6 and 0.6
are they both valid?
or not because of the §
√
,w solve y^2 = y - 0.96
,w (0.48)^2
i check the answers actually, it's really k = 0.48
yes but $(0.48)^2 \neq 0.96$
iCaird
ya timsed it by two haha
keep them as fractions for now
remember what we just found, we found y
but we are looking for x
ages ago we set $y = x^2$
iCaird
so we have $x^2 = \frac{9}{25}$ or $x^2 = \frac{16}{25}$
iCaird
you know what to do
for 16/25 I get 0.4096 and for 9/25 i get 0.1296
what do you mean?
oh i thought i should multiply
multiply what?
we are trying to find x, look above at what we have, what should we do?
ye, square root
so for √9/25 I get 0.6 and for √16/25 I get 0.8
are you forgetting something when you square root?
what is $(-0.6)^2$?
iCaird
9/25
-0.6
what are the soltuions so x^2 = 9/25
so there are 2 more points
iCaird
like you said 0.8 was already given
3*
one last thing to check
we need to check whether when we plug these points into our functions, we actually get a value
because otherwise the lines cant intersect where atleast one of them isnt defined
it is $g(x)$ what may be undefined for some of these points, see if you can see why and for which points
iCaird
yeah try see which ones cause problems
the ones with the minus'
why?
so that leaves me only with 0.6 now
yep!
and just to show you all that work was correct
there they are in all their glory
thanks for not giving up on me caird
thanks for giving up on you?
not***
♥
always learning
and thats all we can do, try our best
ye, would you mind if i will pm you in case i face any problems
sure, won't be around 24/7 but can get roudn to things when i have time
oh no rush, just whenever you can
cool, see ya around!

The basic formula is the cubic root of x equals the function. For number 10, what is the new radical function
sorry for the vagueness, ping if anyone has questions
Cube root function @terse yoke ?
yes
Wdym radical functional though
The cube root itself?
Does that say $7 = Cl - \sqrt[3]{2}$?
Umbraleviathan
What is Cl @leaden summit
cl is meant to be a, and there's no subtraction there, sorry for my writing
Oh
Alright
Yeah I was gonna say there should only be an amplifier
First of all, make sure you plugged your values correctly
Should be $-2 = a\sqrt[3]{7}$
Umbraleviathan
And then a would just be $\frac{-2}{\sqrt[3]{7}}$

A yearly package for adults who want to be physically fit is available in a fitness center. The package has a registration fee of ₱600 and a payment of ₱120 per access to the gym for workouts.
As one of the finance officers of the fitness center,
you need to present the graph that shows the current possible expenses of a member of your fitness center.
compare the current package to the proposed package below by answering the questions.
How much is the initial expense in each package without accessing the gym yet?
How much is the payment per access to the gym in each package?
How much will a member cost in a year if they access the gym twice a month in each package?
How many times can a member access the gym in a year if their budget for the fitness center is ₱3000 in each package?

f(x)=600+120x
So
600
600+120x
600+(120)(24)=3480
600+120x<=3000,120x<=2400,x<=20. So 20
what question answers that?
Clearly f(-x,-y,-z)=-f(x,y,z) so f(x,y,z) is maximal iff f(-x,-y,-z) is minimal. We only need to find maximal value M, minimal value will be -M. So let’s find the maximal value, clearly x,y,z>=0 this case. For any f(rx,ry,rz)=(xy^2)r^3+zr is increasing in terms of r for any fixed x,y,z on the sphere x^2+y^2+z^2=1 so maximal when r=1, so we let x=sin(a),y=cos(a)cos(b),z=cos(a)sin(b) . Then yx^2+z=cos(a)[sin^2(a)cos(b)+sin(b)]<=cos(a)sqrt(1+sin^4(a))=sqrt(cos^6(a)-2cos^4(a)+2cos^2(a)) is monotonically increasing in terms of cos(a) so cos(a)=1, maximal value is 1

hey, i have a question about EDO by Power series, The equation is the following, and I expanded in Power series and I got the following expression.
I did take the a0 term, that was a0 = 1/6, but after that I got stuck and I could not find the recurrence formula no matter what
@upper vortex Has your question been resolved?
General solutions of homogeneous part are {(e^(-2t))(ucos(sqrt(2)t)+vsin(sqrt(2)t): u,v from R} of course
For a particular solution y, you let y=w+z where w”+4w’+6w=1 and z”+4z’+6z=e^-t so w=1/6, z=(1/3)e^(-t) so the solutions are
{(e^(-2t))(ucos(sqrt(2)t)+vsin(sqrt(2)t)+(1/6)+(1/3)e^(-t) : u,v from R}
EDO is French version of ODE in English?
Then compare coefficients both side. Since Taylor expansion of e^-t is known
I see the dilemma here
That recurrence relation is hard to solve
Or you only need to find the recurrence relation not solve it? That case it is
$a_{n+2}(n+2)(n+1)+4a_{n+1}(n+1)+6a_{n}=\frac{(-1)^{n}}{n!}$ for $n \geq 2$
Cogwheels of the mind
to solve it :/
…
Hard to understand why the professor gave this question insist on solving it using series… when it’s so easy to solve just normally 😂😂
indeed my friend, he likes to make the students suffer
Well, at least I can’t… that recurrence relation is not linear
Well, I just found out that
We can cheat:
Solving a_n since we can solve this ODE😂
a_n is linear combinations of b_n and c_n where
actually, my professor said that we need to solve this by variation of parameters, power series and laplace, all of thoose 3.
$b_{n}=\frac{(-2+\sqrt{2}i)^{n}}{n!}+\frac{(-1)^{n}}{3n!}$
$c_{n}=\frac{(-2-\sqrt{2}i)^{n}}{n!}+\frac{(-1)^{n}}{3n!}$
Cogwheels of the mind
alright, so the problem is that for us to find the recurrence we must have used the complex number right?
This is just cheating, solve a_n from the solutions of that ODE. But at least it’s solved. You can check b_n ,c_n form a basis of the linear space of sequences satisfying that recurrence relation
how, by the normal way of solving the ODE did you get to this?
cause I'll only use it to solve
Yeah, this is solutions of this ODE, I just took their Taylor expansion
I mean you don’t have to show it on paper
You secretly solved it normally
lmao
And used it to solve the recurrence relation on paper
yeah
yeah broh, my professor is a crazy man
Just to please this weirdo professor
maybe someday he will learn to have love in his heart
😂
thank broh, U helped a lot
