You're using a combination

spark igloo
#

Yes

#

Thats how I got 2I

cosmic steppe
#

You know your sec(x) identity?

#

For the antiderivative?

spark igloo
#

No

#

ig I forgot it

#

I used some substitution to find it out

#

Now I forgot it

cosmic steppe
#

$$\ln{|\sec{(x)} + \tan{(x)}|} + C$$

spark igloo
#

Ooo

wraith daggerBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

cosmic steppe
#

I have a list of these

spark igloo
#

Hmm

#

Let me solve further

cosmic steppe
#

Straight from my notes lol

spark igloo
#

Ooo

#

ig my integral is gonna be very complex

#

,w \sec{\arctan{x}}

wraith daggerBOT
spark igloo
#

Wait how

cosmic steppe
#

sec is hypotenuse over adjacent

spark igloo
#

Hm I got that

cosmic steppe
#

So sec(x) implies that the hypoentuse is x, adjacent is 1

#

Find the other side

#

$\sqrt{x^2-1^2}$

wraith daggerBOT
#

Umbraleviathan

spark igloo
#

Hm yea

cosmic steppe
#

Not sure why it says + though

#

Oh my bad

spark igloo
#

I know why it says

cosmic steppe
#

I read it as tan(arcsec

spark igloo
#

Sqrt sec x

cosmic steppe
#

My goofy ass

#

Then it should be +

spark igloo
#

;-;

cosmic steppe
#

Lol

spark igloo
#

Yea lol

#

Got my final answer

#

$a\sqrt{\frac{x^2}{a^2}+\frac{x}{a}}+a\log{|\sqrt{\frac{x}{a}+1}+\sqrt{\frac{x}{a}}|}$

cosmic steppe
#

You mean ln

#

Not log

#

Wel

#

Yeah use ln

@silent yew great Lelouch thanks to ur wisdom i did 2 more questions and i got them right

sonic thistle
#

something with similar triangles

cerulean ledge
#

ADE is similar to ABC

sonic thistle
#

yes

#

bro

#

why did you leave yesterday

#

mid-question

cerulean ledge
#

im so sorry my comouter died

#

then i had to go somewhere

#

im so sorry sir

sonic thistle
#

"sir"

cerulean ledge
#

huh?

im a kid

#

not a sir

cerulean ledge
#

im sorry

sonic thistle

haha

#

np

cerulean ledge
#

thanks

#

so how do i solve htis

sonic thistle
#

lets see

#

so

#

ok?

cerulean ledge
#

yep

sonic thistle
#

and the triangles are similar

#

so area ade over area abc is 9/16

cerulean ledge
#

yea got that

#

wait

#

no

#

hold up

#

how u get 9/16

sonic thistle

sand cradle
#

Ben drives to his friend, which is 40 miles away and then drives back.
On the way there, he drives 40 miles an hour, but on the way back only 20 mph.
What is the average speed for the whole trip?

sand cradle
#

If he drives 40mph and 20mph, his average speed should be (40+20)/2 = (60)/2 = 30 => 30mph, right?

#

But it's actually 26 2/3 mph

#

Why?

crimson delta
#

in total he drives 80 miles in 3 hours

#

so 80/3 mph

sand cradle
crimson delta
#

you can't just add the two velocities because in a sense the 20 mph is more important, as it was present for a longer time

sand cradle
#

oh

sharp lotus
#

oops not sure why that was a reply for some reason

kind lily
#

Also formula of average speed is total distance by total time you have to use it

sharp lotus
#

yeah that's a good way to look at it

#

he travels a total of 80 miles and he spends 1 hour on the way there and 2 hours on the way back so 80 / 3 = 26.6...

sand cradle
#

yeah makes sense, the average speed will be lower than 30mph because he spends more time driving 20mph

#

thx

Hello

cedar kilnBOT

Please don't occupy multiple help channels.

ask your question please

clever wave
buoyant latch

,rotate

wraith daggerBOT
buoyant latch
#

what do you know about the probability as you go down the tree (towards the right side)

muted fjord
#

You multiply the numbers on the same branch that leads to only 1 win
And then add the parallel branches

buoyant latch
#

if they knew they wouldn't be stuck

clever wave
#

I need the answer to B

buoyant latch
#

how do you find the probability of going lose lose

clever wave
#

I don’t know

buoyant latch
#

what's the probability you lose

clever wave
#

0.6?

buoyant latch
#

where did you get 0.6

clever wave
#

0.2 x 3 = 0.6 all the losses added up

buoyant latch
#

no ignore that first

#

what's the probability you lose when u play the game

clever wave
#

50 50

buoyant latch
#

where did you get 50 50

muted fjord
#

You either lose or you don't

buoyant latch
#

dont confuse people

muted fjord
#

Aight sorry

buoyant latch
clever wave
#

Leave that I thought u ment something else

buoyant latch
#

i meant leave the diagram for now

#

just focus on the text

clever wave
#

I don’t know

buoyant latch
#

ok let's start with coins

#

if u flip a coin what's the chance you get heads

clever wave
#

50%

buoyant latch
#

what's the chance you get heads twice in a row

clever wave
#

50%

buoyant latch
#

that's once

#

what about twice

clever wave
#

25%

buoyant latch
#

how did you get 25%

clever wave
#

Bro I literally got my GCSE maths paper in 12 hours Paper 2 I ain’t got no time to be flipping coins

buoyant latch
#

just follow through here, there's no point telling you the answer if u cant apply it to a different problem

clever wave
#

Just tell me the answer

buoyant latch
#

the answer is 32%

clever wave
#

Ok simple as that

#

.end

vagrant spindle
#

Find the maximum value of the function f(x) = x³-6ax²+9a²x-2a³ on the intervals within the domain 0 ≤ x ≤ 2. Assume that a > 0

vagrant spindle
#

I literally cant wrap my head around this question.

gaunt hamlet
#

What have you tried

vagrant spindle
#

I can find the values of the equations without intervals and with intervals using differential calculus, but I can't seem to understand how to even begin with these kinds.

vagrant spindle
#

I would begin

vagrant spindle
#

I'm still learning

buoyant latch
#

what does maximum mean

vagrant spindle
#

about this question I have tried to get help

buoyant latch
#

what's special about maximums

vagrant spindle
#

in the graph

buoyant latch
#

what's special about maximums in terms of calculus

vagrant spindle
#

there's relative/local and absolute/global maximums

buoyant latch
#

what does differential calculus teach you about

#

what does it teaches you to find

vagrant spindle
#

It teaches you on how to find derivatives?

buoyant latch
#

what are derivatives

vagrant spindle
#

The slope at a specific point on a graph

buoyant latch
#

ok now what is special about a maximum

#

in relation to differential calculus

vagrant spindle
#

Idek

gaunt hamlet
#

They're asking how you calculate a max/min

buoyant latch
#

what's special about the slope at a maximum

vagrant spindle
#

It is 0

buoyant latch
#

right

vagrant spindle
#

yes

buoyant latch
#

so differentiate the function for its slope

#

and find when it's equal to 0

#

that's where the local maximum/minimum will be yeah?

vagrant spindle
#

is that

#

since

buoyant latch
#

is it not in the interval

vagrant spindle
#

there is another variable a

#

I get the derivative of the function

#

to be

#

3(x-a)(x-3a) so the critical points are at a, and 3a

#

but what do I do with this?

#

Find the maximum value of the function f(x) = x³-6ax²+9a²x-2a³ on the intervals within the domain 0 ≤ x ≤ 2. Assume that a > 0

#

just repost

buoyant latch
#

a is less than 0

#

what does that mean

vagrant spindle
#

I meant to put

#

a > 0

buoyant latch
#

ok a > 0

#

what does that mean

vagrant spindle
#

It means that the value of a has to be positive

#

no matter what

static sage
#

no like what does this imply about the max of 3(x-a)(x-3a)

vagrant spindle
#

not sure

#

to be honest

#

Im assuming

#

that a is the maximum

#

and 3a is the minimum

muted fjord
#

Yes

vagrant spindle
#

based off the graph

static sage
#

ah oops i typoed

vagrant spindle
#

a would come first

#

so its the max

#

and 3a would be after

#

so its the min

static sage
#

so you know 3(x-a)(x-3a) is the derivative right

vagrant spindle
#

that's kind of my logic to it

vagrant spindle
static sage
#

there can only be a max or a min when the derivative equals 0

#

does this help?

vagrant spindle
#

thats correct

#

makes sense

gaunt hamlet
#

Shouldn't you also consider the bounds of the interval?

muted fjord
vagrant spindle
vagrant spindle
gaunt hamlet
#

The max might be one of 0 or 2, if it's not a or 3a

buoyant latch
#

the max is either at x = 2 or x = a @vagrant spindle do you see this

muted fjord
vagrant spindle
buoyant latch
#

it cant be 0

muted fjord
vagrant spindle
buoyant latch
#

if the max is at 0 then a would be 0

vagrant spindle
#

then the graph would flip otherwise

vagrant spindle
#

thats true

muted fjord
buoyant latch
#

either a is within the bounds 0 < x < 2

#

and 3a isn't

#

then a must be the largest value

#

if 3a is also in the bound

vagrant spindle
buoyant latch
#

then it can grow up higher than 3a

vagrant spindle
#

that's basically the rought sketch

#

right?

buoyant latch
#

yes

#

now think about hte bounds

#

if i cut the bounds between a and 3a

#

then a is the top

#

if i cut after 3a

#

then there's a chance it can grow above x = a

#

so it's either x = a or x = 2

vagrant spindle
#

so yes thats true

buoyant latch
#

do you see it now

vagrant spindle
vagrant spindle
#

visual?

buoyant latch
#

yea

muted fjord
#

3a can still be higher then 2
I don't understand what you mean

buoyant latch
#

if a < 2 < 3a

#

then a is max in 0 < x < 2

vagrant spindle
#

so what exactly is the method

buoyant latch
#

from here you do f(a) and f(2) and see what's bigger

vagrant spindle
#

to solving these kind of problems?

#

I didnt really understand that

gaunt hamlet
buoyant latch
#

if a is > 2

#

then 2 is the max

muted fjord
vagrant spindle
#

because

buoyant latch
vagrant spindle
#

the range

#

is only between 0 and 2?

#

right?

buoyant latch
#

yes

vagrant spindle
#

so thats why 2 is the max

#

ok

buoyant latch
#

if a is within 0 -> 2 and 3a isn't

#

then a is the max

#

either way it must be either x=a is the max or x=2 is the max

#

plug them into your function and solve

#

see what's bigger

vagrant spindle
#

i mean a is arbitrary

#

so it wouldnt make any sense

#

you wouldnt get a definitive value

#

i suppose

buoyant latch
#

if f(a) > f(2) then f(a) is max if a < 2

muted fjord
#

If 3a is less then 2 then it depends on the graphs gradients wether 2 is the max or a is

vagrant spindle
#

so what exactly is the concept

#

here?

muted fjord
buoyant latch
#

if f(a) > f(2) then f(2) is max if 2 < a

muted fjord
#

We can't even find f(2)

buoyant latch
#

you can find it in terms of a

#

you can find f(a) in terms of a as well

vagrant spindle
#

yea

#

you can do that perhaps

muted fjord
#

Yea but when you plug in a you will have a² terms
Which will depend alot on the size of a when say comparing to a 2a term

vagrant spindle
#

so @buoyant latch how exactly would you recommend I go about these problems?

#

I looked at the answer

#

in the answer key

#

it just shows me

#

2 ranges and the maximum values corresponding to them in terms of a

#

there's no definitive maximum

buoyant latch
#

can u send a picture

vagrant spindle
#

sure

buoyant latch
#

it should be dependent on a

vagrant spindle
#

there @buoyant latch

#

I was just so confused

buoyant latch
#

ok do you see the right 3 graphs

#

those are the 3 situations i mentioned

#

either a > 2 in which case f(2) is the max

#

or a < 2 < 3a then f(a) is the max

#

or a < 3a < 2 in which case you test if f(a) or f(2) is greater, the greater is the maximum

vagrant spindle
#

aren't there more possibilties?

buoyant latch
#

oh but there's actual coefficients that lock the function in

buoyant latch
#

honestly i dont see why it says for values x > 3a, let f(x) = 2a^3

vagrant spindle
#

i didnt understand why they said it for x = 4a

#

and then they compared that

muted fjord
#

Seems like an arbitrary choice

vagrant spindle
#

yea

#

there's like so many problems

muted fjord
#

Maybe its just an example to show such a possibility exists

vagrant spindle
#

similar to this

#

and they all use a different method to solve

#

thats why i cant understand the concept

#

of using intervals in diff. calc

crimson sedge

I forgot how to do this kind of equation, there’s little to work with

cedar kilnBOT
#

@crimson sedge Has your question been resolved?

crimson sedge
# azure monolith cant read it

it says
"Determine, to the nearest tenth of a year, how long it would take an investment to double at a 3 and 3/4 interest rate, compounded continuously."

#

<@&286206848099549185>

crimson sedge
#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

:/

#

i really need help but I don't know how to do it
I'd really like if someone could walk me through it

thin topaz
#

so the formula is money = investment * e^(rt)

#

2 * investment = investment * e^(rt)

#

2 = e^rt

#

take logs...

#

am i missing something?

crimson sedge
#

i know

#

I feel like it's P

#

there's supposed to be a value or something

thin topaz
#

you feel like P is what?

crimson sedge
#

you're missing P

thin topaz
#

you don't have to know P

crimson sedge
#

wait what

#

so how do I...

#

taking your equation here

thin topaz
#

yes

#

go line by line

crimson sedge
thin topaz
#

mhm

crimson sedge
#

N = b^e
B^e = N
ln{b}N = e

#

right

#

so B is e, but ln does that for us so it's really just
ln2 = 0.0375(t)?

thin topaz

i've no idea what you did there but the last thing you said is correct

crimson sedge
#

oh.

#

ok

thin topaz
#

you get rid of it because when you have this sort of compounding

crimson sedge
#

but P is a starting value

thin topaz
#

money = P * e^rt

crimson sedge
#

oh so P is just investment

thin topaz
#

yea. it's the amount that you put in initially

crimson sedge
#

so wouldn't it be 2P?

thin topaz
#

yes, that's what i wrote above too 😄

crimson sedge
#

oh right

thin topaz
#

also, if you substitute t = 0, you get your money at time zero

#

that is, the initial investment

crimson sedge
#

uh

#

ohhh

#

okay wait, but now ln2 is the time it takes for it to double?

thin topaz
#

no

crimson sedge
#

but ln2 = 0.0375(t)

#

oh wait no

thin topaz
#

ln2 divided by the rate is the time

#

ez stuff

crimson sedge
#

right

#

basic algebra

how did they go from $\int_{1}^{\infty} f(x) \dd x = 3/8

#

to the second integral

crystal raptor
#

Would need to see the definition of f(x)

quiet hazel
crystal raptor
#

So f(x) is only defined from 0 to 2

#

And you want P(X>1)

#

That's where the 1 and 2 come from

quiet hazel
#

we cant have a value less than 0 in the bounds since x has to be greater than 1, right or nah?

#

and the only value than is greater than 1 is 2 in this case

#

how can i find the cdf of this? @crystal raptor

modern compass
#

Integrate it

quiet hazel
#

f(x)?

modern compass
modern compass
quiet hazel
#

what would x be in this case?

this is just asking for a general formula

for the cdf

Can somebody explain to me why is it that on straigth line, a point on it for a certain segment is considered to be both a minimum and a maxium at the same time? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmrhZ5ySaD0&t=78s

Sal gives multiple examples where he identifies relative maximum points, relative minimum points, absolute maximum points, and absolute minimum points.

stoic sluice
#

yes

#

@dire geode

dire geode
#

Say y=5

stoic sluice
#

My issue is that I don't understand how one value can be a minimum and maximum at the same time

#

the idea does not enter into my head

#

If we have y=2 and y=5, then 2 is the min. and 5 is the max

#

this makes sense, but how can one value be the two at the same time?

stoic sluice
cedar kilnBOT
#

@stoic sluice Has your question been resolved?

cedar kilnBOT
#

@stoic sluice Has your question been resolved?

dire geode
#

y=5 is a horizontal line

#

Plot it and see what alternative could be if not max=min

stoic sluice
dire geode
stoic sluice
# dire geode Look up the definition of max and min

"In mathematical analysis, the maxima and minima (the respective plurals of maximum and minimum) of a function, known collectively as extrema (the plural of extremum), are the largest and smallest value of the function, either within a given range (the local or relative extrema), or on the entire domain (the global or absolute extrema)."

dire geode
#

That's good for explanation

#

Now find an equation for it

stoic sluice
#

how does this answer my problem of comprehension though

#

I understand the explanation, I just don't understand the rough case

dire geode
#

Because you don't know the definition

#

And you need to know the math definition

stoic sluice
#

I found something

#

f(c) is a local maximum if f(c) ≥ f(x) for all x near c.
f(c) is a local minimum if f(c) ≤ f(x) for all x near c.

dire geode
#

The answer to your question about max and mins relies on you knowing the mathematical definition of them

stoic sluice
#

@dire geode

dire geode
stoic sluice
#

In the case of a horizontal line, both definitions are satisfied, right?

stoic sluice
#

If we take y = 5 for all x

#

wait a minute let me write this down

#

@dire geode f(x) = 5, for one point x, is going to be superior or equal to all other f(x), on a certain segment of the horizontal line.

#

Inversely, f(x)=5, for one point x, is going to be inferior or equal to all other f(x), on a certain segment of the horizontal line

dire geode
#

I don't think people use inferior and superior but yeah that's right

stoic sluice
#

In both cases though, they're all equal to each other, so it satisfies both the definitions of minimum and maximum

#

@dire geode I said inferior or superior to put the definition as I gave it preivously, but it's obvious that they're equal in both cases, and not superior or inferior

dire geode
#

No I mean those words are outdated

stoic sluice
#

ohh

dire geode
#

People just say greater than or equal to

#

And less than or equal to

stoic sluice
#

ok, so the reason why it's a minimum and maximum at the same time, is because they both satisfy the two conditions at the same time

#

@dire geode Am i Understanding this right?

#

By condition, I mean the mathematical definition

dire geode
#

Yea

#

You got it

#

.close to free up the channel

stoic sluice
#

so I understand now, thanks very much for the help. What was my error then?

#

I di dnot understand the definition of the thing?

#

@dire geode sorry one last question

sick ruin
#

Inf and sup are not outdated what

stoic sluice
#

Hi, since you read the convo, could you tell me what was my error as to why I was not understanding it?

#

Is it because I had no idea of the mathematical definition of it?

sick ruin
#

Oh I see your question

stoic sluice
#

Now, I'm trying to understand why was it that I did not understand at first

sick ruin
#

I totally get it

stoic sluice
#

what was blocking in my head

sick ruin
#

The idea that maximum and minimum had to be two different things

#

In a room full of people, there’s inevitably going to be a tallest person and a shortest person

stoic sluice
#

exactly

#

intuitevely

sick ruin
#

But if you’re the only person in the room, you are now both the tallest and the shortest

buoyant latch
#

My sister is my worst sister and my best sister

#

But she is my only sister

sick ruin
#

Right

stoic sluice
stoic sluice
#

but what made me understand this thing was the mathematical definition funnily enough

sick ruin
#

I edited it

#

Yeah

#

The precise definition makes it understandable

buoyant latch
#

It’s like saying 3<= x<= 3

stoic sluice
#

x=3 satisfies those two conditions

buoyant latch
#

It’s also the minimum and maximum of that range

stoic sluice
sick ruin
#

What you were confused about makes perfect sense though

#

Minimum and maximum are inherently about comparison

#

But if there’s only one object, you’re not really comparing anymore

#

So it’s weird

stoic sluice
#

since there has to be inevitable one tallest and one shortest, when there's only one person left, he is the only one who can satisfy those two conditions in the room

sick ruin
#

Basically yeah

#

He is greater than or equal to everyone’s height

#

But “everyone” is him, and he is equal to his height

#

Hence he is the tallest person

#

And vice versa for minimum

stoic sluice
# sick ruin So it’s weird

exactly, I think the issue was that there's an intuitive understanding of the notion, and then there's the rough edge case which can only make sense if you have a precise definition for the notion, which is the mathematical definition of it

sick ruin
#

You said it perfectly, yep

stoic sluice
#

i was trying to understand it intuitvely, and trying to compare it to something, hence why I was blocking in my understanding

sick ruin
#

And in fact there are definitions of minimum/maximum which do follow the intuitive notion - that is, they must be strictly bigger or smaller (no “equal to” business) than all the numbers around it

#

Those are called relative minimums

stoic sluice
#

relative minimum and relative maximum for a certain interval

sick ruin
#

Ah Im mistaken

stoic sluice
sick ruin
#

Relative includes equals

#

Whatever

stoic sluice
#

thanks bro again

#

i think it clarifies it now

sick ruin
#

Haha np

#

Yeah youve got it

stoic sluice
#

I have as a rule that I have to be able to explain something to myself if I understand it

sick ruin
#

That’s a great rule

#

Just always search for the “why” in math

stoic sluice
#

are you some university student?

sick ruin
#

No, just graduated HS

#

I’m joining uni next year

stoic sluice
#

oh really, that's awesome

#

you seem to know a lot

sick ruin
#

It’s lit

#

Thank you

stoic sluice
#

which domain?

sick ruin
#

I’m gonna study math

#

Haha

stoic sluice
#

oh cool lol

#

hi help

cedar kilnBOT
buoyant latch
#

what have u tried

heady forge
#

nothing

#

i just did y=kx2

tropic oxide
#

y = kx**^**2

heady forge
#

ye thatgs what i did

tropic oxide
#

okay so do you know what it means to increase x by 200%?

heady forge
#

unfortunaetly no

buoyant latch
#

what does it mean if i improve something by 100%

heady forge
#

means you double the thing?

buoyant latch
#

right

#

so what does it mean if i improve it by 200%

heady forge
#

means triple

buoyant latch
#

right

tropic oxide
#

right, so what happens when you replace x with 3x in your equation?

heady forge
#

y =k(3x)^2

#

?

buoyant latch
#

expand it

heady forge
#

y=k3x^2?

buoyant latch
#

are you sure

heady forge
#

uh

buoyant latch
#

is (ab)^n = ab^n

#

or a^n*b^n

heady forge
#

wait what

buoyant latch
#

(ab)^n = ab^n

heady forge
#

oh

#

so does that menas i just substitude the number?

buoyant latch
#

substitute what number

#

im talking about y = k(3x)^2

#

can you expand this

heady forge
#

y=3kx^2

buoyant latch
#

so you're saying that (ab)^n = ab^n

heady forge
#

yes

buoyant latch
#

so what's (2*3)^2

#

is that 2 * 3^2 = 2 * 9 = 18

heady forge
#

yes

buoyant latch
#

,w (2*3)^2

heady forge
#

oh

buoyant latch
#

this is basic index laws

heady forge
#

ooh

buoyant latch
#

it's very difficult to progress forwards in math without understanding prior content

#

maths is like a building you cant understand higher level concepts if you dont get the fundamentals

heady forge
#

oh i see

buoyant latch
#

so i ask again, y = k(3x)^2 can you expand this

heady forge
#

yes

buoyant latch
#

ok do it

craggy anchor

rugged palm
#

what have you tried?

craggy anchor
#

assume distance = x, time = distance divided speed, so x/2/100 + x/2/60 = 2/3

#

which doesnt work

rugged palm
#

Hm ok

#

Always start by converting everything in the same unit

craggy anchor
#

haven't i converted everything

rugged palm
#

Send your work

#

but in our problem we have time in mins and speed in km/h

#

are you there @craggy anchor ?

craggy anchor
#

yes

tawny warren
#

i think u forgot the denominator

#

on the LHS

craggy anchor
#

#

wdym

tawny warren
craggy anchor
#

wat

#

i dont see whats missing

#

100 times the x over 2

tawny warren
#

ok how did u reach the second equation from the first?

craggy anchor
#

fraction rule

tawny warren
#

which is?

craggy anchor
#

a/b/c = ac/b

tawny warren
#

so that's the mistake

#

first of all do you mean $\frac{\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)}{c}$ or $\frac{a}{\left(\frac{b}{c}\right)}$?

wraith daggerBOT

queen pivot
#

How do i solve this

cedar kilnBOT
queen pivot
#

I think that the TME wouldn't match

#

With

#

Set A and Set B

#

A
PE = 58800
KE = 0m/s
TME = 58800
B
PE = 51450
KE = 0m/s
TME = 51450

#

Am i dumb

#

Am i missing something here?

#

<@&286206848099549185>

lament kraken
#

whats TME

#

also is this frictionless?

queen pivot
lament kraken
queen pivot
#

Yes, i think so

lament kraken
#

because A and

#

B

#

which one is h =40

queen pivot
#

A = 40

#

B = 35

#

C = none

queen pivot
#

By check you mean correct right?

lament kraken
#

i think you missed the answer

#

by a magnitude

queen pivot
#

oh

lament kraken
#

this is what im getting

queen pivot
#

I don't know which one is correct

lament kraken
#

bru whaht

#

yours is correct

#

why is my mac calculator glitching

lament kraken
#

Joules is the unit for energy

lament kraken
#

do you know the law of conservation of energy?

#

energy is always conserved and since there are no frictional forces

#

that means there is no energy really lost to the environment

#

so the person should have some kinetic energy at point B

#

and remember that total energy = kinetic energy + potential

queen pivot
#

Im so confused at the problem

lament kraken
#

i legit explaiend it

#

@queen pivot

queen pivot
#

Yes

lament kraken
#

what

#

did you not understand from my messages

queen pivot
#

I dunno how im gonna solve and match the TME

lament kraken
#

TME is

#

consistent

#

no matter where you are in that hill

#

so TME in A = TME in B = TME in C

#

does that make sesne?

#

due to the conservation of energy

queen pivot
#

PE + KE =TME

lament kraken
#

yes

#

very good

#

you know the PE in every single one of the different points

#

thus you cans olv efor KE in the different points

#

does that make sense

queen pivot
#

Yes

lament kraken
#

ok great

queen pivot
#

I'm also watching a video rn

lament kraken
#

so whats your TME on point B

queen pivot
#

58800

#

It should be.

lament kraken
#

and what is PE at that point

queen pivot
#

My answer is 51450

lament kraken
lament kraken
queen pivot
#

7350

queen pivot
lament kraken
#

yesssss

#

good

#

you got it!!!

queen pivot
#

Yeah Hahaha

lament kraken
#

you can always make sense with physics

queen pivot
lament kraken
#

so

#

is that like

#

your question answered?

queen pivot
#

Yes sir!

lament kraken
#

lets goo

#

a thank you would be nice

upper swallow
#

I don't get what I'm doing wrong when I input -3 as X, the answer should be 243/2 but I don't get that

obsidian coral
tribal pier
#

it looks like you both switched bounds and back-substituted, you only need to do one

#

you put the U bounds into the X equation

obsidian coral
#

If you were using -3 to 1 as the bounds, you would keep it in terms of u still

upper swallow
#

so i'd do (1/6(-3)^6) instead of replacing u with the function?

tribal pier
#

think of it like this: why did it go from 0 and 2 to -3 and 1 in the first place? you already input x into your equations, now there's only u left

obsidian coral
#

So if you wanted to use the bounds of -3 to 1, you would use the equation 1/2(1/6(u)^6) because those bounds are specifically for the equation in terms of u

pulsar skiff
#

swap these

upper swallow
#

im confused on when to change the bounds and when not too

pulsar skiff
#

u should be -3 to 1

#

x should be 0 to 2

#

as it says in the original problem

#

since u = 2x - 3

tribal pier
#

changing the bounds happens when you want to change variables completely and not have to deal with x anymore. it's like "preprocessing" the bounds so that you don't have to get to the end result and swap everything back to be in terms of x at the end

obsidian coral
pulsar skiff
#

also change bounds in step 1

tribal pier
#

there's a reason that you're often taught to write down your substitutions, that way you can track exactly what variable each set of bounds "belongs to"

#

in my calc courses we were always told that if we wanted to use a sub, we had to label the bounds as "x=a" and "x=b" first, so we could track what went where

upper swallow
#

okay so if im changing the bounds i input the new bounds as u into the equation, if im not replacing them I need to put the function for u back in and use the original bounds right?

livid estuary
#

does anyone have any good resources for circles at an undergrad level

upper swallow
tribal pier
#

you get to choose: change the end equation, or change the bounds. As long as you pick one or the other, not both, you should be fine

upper swallow
#

okay, that makes so much sense. I've been confused on how that works. Thank you!

tribal pier

ill check it out, cheers!
