hello, I was wondering if there is a formula to get the first digit of a 3 digit number no matter the number.
e.g. you have the number 678 I want to isolate the number 6.
you can divide by 100 and then use the floor function
i.e. floor(x/100)
if this is a programming thing you can also just take the first character

Question about Rubinstein bargaining in game theory and finding Nash Equilibrium and subgame perfect equilibrium
We have 2 players, p1 and p2 deciding how to divide a pie of size 1.
First p1 offers (x, 1-x) for 0<=x<=1
Then p2 can accept or reject
If accept, p1 gets x, p2 gets 1-x, game ends
else p2 can reject and offer (y,1-y) for 0<=x<=1
Then p1 can accept or reject
If accept, p1 gets d * y, p2 gets d * (1-y), game ends (for 0 < d < 1, d = discount factor)
Questions:
- Prove that (p1 plays (1,0), p2 accepts), (p1 plays (0,1), p2 accepts) are Nash equilibrium
- If player is indifferent between accept or reject, player accepts. Find subgame perfect equilibrium.
- If player is indifferent between accept or reject, player rejects. Prove that this has no subgame perfect equilibrium
For 1) with (p1 plays (1,0), p2 accepts) is obvious. But for (0,1) I thought that p1 can switch to (1,0) and p1 is better?
So I thought of another solution
If p1 changes anything, p2 will not get the original payoff of 1, and p2 will reject and then p2 offers (0,1), meaning p1 has no incentive to switch.
And p2 obviously doesn't want to switch from accept to reject and get from 1 to d < 1
Meaning (p1 plays (0,1), p2 accepts) is Nash equilibrium?
For 2) I tried backward induction and got (p1 plays (x,1-x) then accepts, p2 rejects then plays (0,1)) to get (0,d) for 1-d < x <=1
And (p1 plays (1-d, d), p2 accepts) gives (1-d, d)
I need someone to check this
For 3) I tried and somehow found a subgame perfect equilibrium of (p1 plays (1,0) then rejects, p2 rejects then plays (0,1)) to get (0,0)

$\vec{x}_1= \left(\begin{array}{c} cos(t)\ -1 \ 2 \cdot sin(t) +3 \end{array}\right)$
with t = [0,2 pi]
how do i know what shape this curve is?
i need someone to walk me through the steps to visualize that
Mergintaim
is it a spiral?
I don't think it's a spiral 
probably ellipse if i had to guess
but there are no terms that decay to a constant in the limit
or grow large
so i think spiral would be out, but i could be wrong
yeah its an ellipse, do you just know the formula for an elllipse by heart or how did you deduce that?
you could try desmos and just look at the slice? since its a slice anyways
well its in a slice right since x2 is a constant
cost sint is your classic circle
but here sint is scaled by a constant
so im imagining what its squished inwards along x3?
and translated
hhhm yeah, that makes sense, so basically a spiral would need a growing or shrinking term in there?
yea probably something exponential
compare to this
allright that makes sense, thank you very much!
i was missing the knowledge of how a circle is made up

Hello guys, anyone know how i can prove this? Im rubbish with some proof.
Study the sign of f's derivative for unicity. For existence, use the mean value theorem
sorry, I meant the intermediate value theorem
for all n there is a root a_n of f_n. the root will depend on n and it is unique for that specific n
Sorry, missread it
@white badge Has your question been resolved?
study the sign of fs derivatives for unicity? i have no idea how to do that lmao
If a function is continuous and strictly monotone, then it's bijective, hence the unicity of the root (because 0 can't be mapped to by more than one element).
I assume you know how to calculate the derivative of f
yeah i think i can manage that part lmao.
okay so, if i prove its bijective it will have to be unique?
yes that's right, that's the definition of bijection
Alright sweet, so to prove its bijective i should use that intermidiate value theroem? is that where that part comes in
nope, intermediate value theorem proves the existence part.
btw sorry im bad lmao, i know
okay to find the derivative of f do i have to fix n as a value beforehand? I struggle to find the derivative of xn +xnโ1 +...+xโ1 because its not jjst a set sequence? Think im trippin.
yes n is fixed because we calculate the derivative with respect to x
everything is fixed except x
the part that confuses me tho is that we dont even know how many x terms there are yet. Like depending on what n was there could be a different amount of terms. Thats what coinfuses me when it comes to finding the derivative.
cant even remember how to differentiate an equation like that
this shouldn't confuse you here, the terms are just the successive powers of x, you can imagine n being equal to 4 or 5 if that's helpful
start by writing the derivative of $x^n$
AimaneSN
yep that's correct
then like (n-1)(n-2)x^n-3 like thats ort of thing
and it will just ciontinute like that
so study its sign
nx^n-1 + (n-1)x^n-2 + (n-1)(n-2)x^n-3.... + 1
for the third one it's just $(n-2) \cdot x^{n-3}$
AimaneSN
oh fr
yes, almost right
so what is its sign
what is the sign of each term, don't forget that $x \in \mathbb{R}^{+}$
AimaneSN
that's true but not enough to justify positivity, notice that terms like (n-5) multiplied by something will eventually appear for n>5, but of course if they do appear, that means n > 5. because n is also the number of terms in the sum
in other words $n-k $ is positive for $k=0,...,n-1$
AimaneSN
the function is increasing?
well i know its continuous because as you increase the values every output will have an input (graph will have an x value at every single y value) however i struggle to write that i words that prove it well. Like to prove continousnous i usually just plot a grraph and analayse it lmao
discontinuous functions also have an "output" for every input, this is the very definition of a function, has nothing to do with continuity. Here to prove it's continuous, you probably just need to say it's a polynomial function
polynomial functions are differentiable, therefore continuous
no i mean an input for every output
this is surjectivity, not continuity
omg im an idiot i was thinking of surjectivity the whole time lmaop
thats makes way mroe sense lmao
continuity is more like the behavior of the function, surjectivity and stuff is related to the domain and codomain of f
i was just doing surjectivity questions so thats what thats ion my mind lmao
lol I see
okay so, ive proved its bijective, thus it must have unique values. Now you mentioned proving the existence part?
yep, you should use the intermediate value theorem for existence
Okay let me look that up lmao
@crimson sedge ive seen the Intermediate value theroem and im still not getting it lmao. This really has been the question from hell for me. i keep seeing ๐(๐)<k<๐(๐) so im assuming ill be doing ๐(๐)<0<๐(๐)? its a struggle lmao
yes that's right
you need to find the appropriate values of a and b
then calculate their iamges
okay, how do i know what values are the appropriate ones?
what are the easiest values you can think of
for which we can easily calculate the image
-1 and 1
it's not clear that you can determine the sign of f(-1)
f(1) is easy tho
and you forgot f(0)
oh i thought it was ๐(๐)<0<๐(๐). im assuming it should be less or equal to then?
why ?
we're not comparing 0 with a or b
we're comparing it with the image of a and b
oh, okay then. didnt think about that lmao. sweet

$\int^{}_{} \tan \left( x\right) dx$, use substitution $u=\cos(x)$
AuHasard
what's the first step
$\int^{}{} \tan \left( x\right) dx$ is of the form $\int^{}{} \frac{u'(x)}{u(x)} dx$ seems more straightforward than substitution
AimaneSN
the problem asks me to use substitution explicitly ๐
ah I see
the first step I guess is to rewrite $sin(x)$ as $\sqrt{1-cos(x)^2}$
AimaneSN
why do we do that
because we want to replace cos(x) by u, and $tan(x)=\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}$
AimaneSN
$$\int^{}{} \tan \left( x\right) dx=\int^{}{} \frac{\sin \left( x\right) }{\cos \left( x\right) } dx$$
$$\cos \left( x\right) =u\rightarrow \int^{}_{} \frac{\sin \left( x\right) }{u} dx$$
AuHasard
$du=-sin(x)dx=-\sqrt{1-cos(x)^2}dx=-\sqrt{1-u^2}dx$ therefore $dx=-\frac{du}{\sqrt{1-u^2}}$
AimaneSN
that's true but you have the annoying sin(x)
in the numerator
it's better to rewrite it as mentioned
I think the square root is going to be simplified anyway
you also have to replace dx by this
because the integral is no longer with respect to x, but with respect to u
$\cos \left( x\right) =u\rightarrow \int^{}_{} \frac{\sqrt{1-u^{2}} }{u} dx$
AuHasard
like that?
yes almost, you need to replace dx now
how did you get du = -sin(x) dx?
oh right
primitive function of cos(x) is -sin(x)?
because $u=cos(x)$ if we differentiate : $du = d(cos(x))dx=-sin(x)dx$
AimaneSN
you mean derivative
yes
and why do we write dx in the LHS?
where
you mean here ?
here
because we intend to replace dx by an expression that doesn't involve x
so it makes sense to isolate dx
since we intend to integrate wrt u
do you know how we get $\int^{}{} \frac{\sin \left( x\right) }{\cos \left( x\right) } dx=\boxed{-\int^{}{} \frac{1}{u} du}$?
AuHasard
i think this is another approach from yours
yes if you replace dx as above the square root $\sqrt{1-u^2}$ is simplified
AimaneSN
$u=\cos \left( x\right) \rightarrow du=-\sin \left( x\right) dx\rightarrow dx=-\frac{du}{\sin \left( x\right) }$
here, you have the square root in the numerator, and by replacing dx you multiply it by te same square root in the denominator
AuHasard
you still have x in the RHS
there should only be u
$\int\frac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}\cdot-\frac{du}{\sin(x)}$
AuHasard
and we're left with $\int-\frac{du}{u}$
AuHasard
$$dx=-\frac{du}{\sin \left( x\right) }$$
$$\int^{}{} \frac{\sin \left( x\right) }{u} \cdot -\frac{du}{\sin \left( x\right) } =-\int^{}{} \frac{du}{u}$$
AuHasard
$$-\int^{}{} \frac{du}{u} \rightarrow -\int^{}{} \frac{1}{u} du=-\ln \left| u\right| +C$$
$$=-\ln \left| \cos \left( x\right) \right| +C$$
AuHasard
here, I don't think it's appropriate to sin(x) in the RHS of dx=...

Previous Video: "Integral of Cos(2x)"
https://ww...
just write $sin(x)$ as $\sqrt{1-cos(x)^2}$ and then replace by u
AimaneSN
$$-\ln \left| \cos \left( x\right) \right| +C=\ln \left| (\cos \left( x\right) )^{-1}\right| +C=\ln \left| \frac{1}{\cos \left( x\right) } \right| +C$$
idk, just doesn't sound rigorous to simply like that
why ?
ah you got rid of the minus sign
AuHasard
or ln|sec(x)| + C
yep that's true, but I think it's better to leave it as -ln (cos(x))
as cosine is more common than the secante function
Sometimes the questions want you to simplify all the way. I don't know what that means though, maybe getting rid of the minus sign for example.
there is nothing left to simplify about -ln(cos(x)), but what you wrote is not wrong though
I would prefer -ln(2) as a final answer to ln(1/2)
but that's up to you ofc

The the faded 10x^4dx in the back is the actual question
what i dont get is the formula we are using
just follow the steps
of given example
r is the exponent in this case
for example x^(120) then r = 120
or as they've mentioned in the example, x^6 --> r = 6
ohhhh ok
ty
the example was throughing me off for sure, appriciate the help

Is there a way to prove proof by induction?
as in how proof by induction works?
I can't seem to find a proof online
yeah
I understand the logic of it, and it seems to make sense, but is there an actual proof of the statement?
you mean like this for example?
do you mean, is there a way to prove that proof by induction is valid using other axioms?
induction is equivalent to the well ordering principle
other than that you have to go all the way down to Peano's axioms or something. You accept the well ordering principle and use it to prove induction
well you use that N can be well ordered. that seems quite a bit weaker than the well ordering principle
that's what the well-ordering principle is, in this context
oh wait I'm thinking of something else
also, this is from the stack exchange post
So well ordering implies induction?
I'm thinking of the well ordering theorem. which is much stronger
they are equivalent
yes, as long as you're working over the natural numbers
yes it does imply induction, and induction in turn implies WOP
right but then there must be a way to show that equivalence?
check the stack exchange post linked
will read it now, thank you
yes ofc, I think they provided you with the link for that
sounds like there are lots of well ordering theorems out ther

I need help with this. I got it wrong a few times. No clue what i'm doing wrong
do you have a clearer image of the original question
is that 2 at the margin part of the question or just the question number
are you starting with
$$2 - 5^3 - 4 - 5$$
โamonov
okay i see what you did there
2 - 125 is -123, not 123
2 - 125 is not equal to 125 - 2
its not like addition
-4-5 โ -(4-5)
and for some reason you're multiplying the 4 with the 5 or something

If I have two circles of equal radii such that both centres lie on the other circle, what fraction of the circumference lies inside the other circle?
This can be shown quite easily to be 1/3, and visually I'm pretty sure this fraction decreases if we up the dimension to spheres (now referring to fraction of surface area). I'm not sure how to actually approach solving it other than using integrals which seems a bit messy.
Does the fraction go to 0 as the dimension number increases? Is there some kind of relatively simple expression that generalises easily to show this?
intuitively, I'd say because you have 1/3 of the circumference in each direction. So you should be able to say the (hyper)surface area inside the other hypersphere in n dimensions should be less than 1/3^(n-1)
hmm
Looks like I'm going to need to do that integral on the spheres and see what I get!
A mess, probably

can a set contain itself?
something like {X is a set : n(X) > 2}
what is n(X)?
cardinality
it is?
it is
how
{X is a set : n(X) > 2} has infinite elements
it's a set containing another set
and so its cardinality is more than 2
so it contains itself
im dumb
under the standard rules of set theory a set cannot contain itself
ok so if sets can contain themselves then doesn't that break the definition of a set?
For example this set
{X is a set : X doesn't contain itself}
yes and this example is why the rules of set theory do not allow a set to contain itself
that would make sense hmm

so bassically the question is 2-5^3-4-5 / -5^2+3
oh i made a mistake
oh I thought you multiply the -4 with the -5 since it was x before
this is the question
this is very different from what you posted initially
and is still very different from what you're writing in
2-5^3-4-5 / -5^2+3
the necessary parentheses should be written immediately as you sub in your value
and NOT after several steps (and/or not at all)
write out the work properly and redo it

what do i do? do i remove the ln?
Seems like a good idea to me
so multiply both sides by e and got cos = 0
Does multiplying by e cancel out the ln?
no its 1
what exactly are you saying is 1
multiplying e and ln?
ln is not a magical number
?
$$e \times \ln$$
is nonsense
โamonov
DNE?
No, it just doesn't mean anything. To get rid of a logarithm you have to use exponentiation
$$a^{\log_{a}x}=x$$
Andrea276
so whats the a in my situation?
What's the base of the natural logarithm (ln)?
e?
Yep
so a =e?
Yeah
simplified it to cos(theta) = 0
i multiply it to get both sides by ^
multiply is NOT the correct word to use here
hence your error
and still feels like you're misunderstanding
you can raise $e$ to the power of each side. i.e.
$$e^{\ln|\cos(x)|} = e^0$$
I must insist on repeating, this is NOT the same as multiplication.
โamonov
what do you get after simplifying each side
cos(x) = 1
how are you getting cos(x) on the left side
they dont cancel out?
you missed the absolute value(|cos(x)|) but other than that you were right
ik. i just dk how to put abs on discord
would there be no solution? [0, 2pi)
how are you getting no solution
cos(x) = 1 (= every 2pi)
can you list any solutions to that?
for cos(x) = 1? Its every 2pi + k
not quite
wdym by +k
are you saying 2pi + 1 is a solution
do you mean 2k * pi (where k is an integer)
yea
note that any integer k will generate a solution
not just the positive integers
you should get a solution to cos(x) = 1 in the specified interval from that
so negative integers but restricted to [0,2pi)?
my solutions are restricted to [0,2pi)
yes
you're over thinking this and missing an obvious solution
try finding an integer value of k that gives you something in that interval
you even said earlier that there'll be a solution every 2pi (or 360ยฐ)
you can even start with a solution you know and add/subtract integer multiples of 2pi to find a solution in that interval
and note that none of this should really be necessary
as you should know the simplest solution to that equation (is conveniently also in the specified interval)
since you're at a stage where you're being given this question
and even if you've really forgotten you can even resort to inverse trig
...
try envisioning the unit circle
check when |cos theta| = 1 on the unit circle
@gleaming jasper
(remember that cosine theta is the x coordinate of a point on the unit circle)
?
1
right it can be either 1 or..
what other number when you take the absolute value gives you 1
-1
cos theta = -1
pi
yep pi and 0

hello, i want to calculate the surface of the area inside the blue and red lines. does anyone know how to get this done?
i managed to calculate the red area from x is zero i think but i dont get how to calculate the whole area inside blue and red
You want to find the area between the red and blue curves?
first find the intersection points of the equations
yes
then you will use those x-values in your integral
do you mean these?
Have you not learned yet how to find the area between two curves?
not yet
but you also need the area between the x-axis and ghe blue curve
so yeah let's teach you
bc that's necessary here
this is where i tried to do the area between red and x = 0
thanks
shift your red function up by 4
^
For future reference, here: https://tutorial.math.lamar.edu/classes/calci/areabetweencurves.aspx
In this section weโll take a look at one of the main applications of definite integrals in this chapter. We will determine the area of the region bounded by two curves.
yeah
i will try this rn and see if i can do it myself. thanks a lot everyone
ofc

I believe it should be mu of 1st = mu of 2nd for h0
and mu of 1st not equal to mu of 2nd for h1
I may be wrong though
what does the mu stand for?
mean iirc'
iirc?
if I remember correctly
so ho: should be not equal to?
should be equal
h1 should not be equal
alright so what do you think of my answer earlier
this one
what does u stand for in this case
umm propotion of town voters I guess
you should compare the sample 1 to sample 2 instead
I guess it is partially right, though I feel it's a little lacking
is this further statistics?
statistics
ah so not further
hmm
then it should be fine ig
but signify the purpose of u
would be my recommendation
because it's not stated in the question

hello
So there is some number (x+1)(x+2)(x+3)...(x+N) where x is a 4 digit integer. What is the minimum value of N so that the product is divisible by 1060^2
Try factoring 1060^2 first
Yeah
How does this help tho?
So what would be useful to have as a number in your product
53?
We have a 53^2 so we should put that in one of the factors of the product
2809?
yea
So which multiple of 2809 is closest to a multiple of 25?
2800?
Multiples of 2809
It has to be a 4 digit number so either 2809, 5618, or 8427
Yes
so the answer is 3?
8428 only has a factor of 4
So instead we look at the number below which is 8424
That has a factor of 8
No
8424ร8425ร8426ร8427 is divisble by 1060^2
Therefore we have how many numbers?
4
Yup
Sure lol
Im in a car riding through the country so i might cut out

Only question i have on it is why is it an exact area under the curve as opposed to the other appoximate
I was told the more rectagles you have the more accurate it is
so is this just based off the notion that there are infinites rectangles there and so its as exact as you can get?

Are you forced to use Taylor series
Otherwise I would use L'Hopital's (a theoretical 5 times)
we are forced to use expansion for this assignment, im not sure if its taylor series or not cuz the teacher didnt use that name, he did use maclaurin expansion or something, also we havent gone to l hopital yet
I don't know what your teacher is doing if he taught you series expansions first before L'Hopital
ah well, but can u help me with doing this

how do i solve this?
sometimes, substitution can also be used to make things appear that make the integral solvable
instead of making things disappear
what substitution could be useful here ? In particular to simplify this exponential
if you have dz in your integral, you should express everything in terms of z
then you should be able to integrate by parts
but didn't i do it
You have -2sqrt(x) in your last line, so it's not all in terms of z
oh ja
drรผck alles durch z aus
mein z ist ja dieses sqrt(x)
dann schrieben sie z, nicht sqrt(x)
Ohhh
z=-sqrt(x) aber sonst stimmts
then it looks like -2z?
yes
so what can i do after that?
xe^x is something you should know
integration by parts/partielle integration
i.e. it's good to remember it can be done that way
except there's no - actually
it wont change u mean?
because it goes into z
Oh yeah thats right my bad
x e^x is something you'll see often
there's quite a few substitutions that end up being xe^x afterwards
sorry i dont quite remember
but if i do integration by parts
I don't say "know the result by heart", just "know that integration by parts works here"
in general, if you have a polynomial * (something not too bad to integrate), ibp will work
what is the integral of x e^x ?
2z * e^z - 2*e^z
in terms of x
you don't have z=x do you
ohh no
ahh okay wait
if i do in terms of x
and sum all up
I get -2*e^-sqrt(x) * (sqrt(x) + 1)
,w integral of e^-sqrt(x)
you had bounds though
bounds?
0 and inf
oh yesss
have to put it in
but than kyou
really
helped me
๐
when do i see I have to use substition?
- if you see that you're multiplying something by the derivative of some part of your integral, like x e^xยฒ or tan x (= sin(x) / cos(x))
- if you have something in your formula that you want to simplify and whose derivative in terms of itself isn't too bad, like e^-sqrt(x)
- when you're out of ideas so you just try random things
what does it mean derivative

Incredibly confused. If the lim of g(x) is approaching -1, then am I even supposed to plug the value in for any of those options? -1 is not less then -1, -1 is also not less then or equal to -1 which is less then equal to 0...
The second option doesn't say less or equal than -1 and less than 0, but greater or equal to -1 and less of equal than 0; you can think of it as x in between -1 and 0
I'm still confused. For the first option, it reads -1 is less then or equal to -1. How is this an option?
Those are not options
-1โคx<0 means that x must be between -1 and 0, -1 and 0 included
So I disregard the 1/x for x<-1 and focus on the second option?
Is x<-1 if x is equal to -1?
No?
No, so that's not the function you have to use
Didn't know that 01 was included and 0 excluded
It says -1โคxโค0, x is greater or equal than -1 and less or equal than 0
You mean greater or equal than negative one?
Yes
'-1โคxโค0' is the same as 'xโฅ-1 and xโค0'
totally skipped over that
So now you can solve it๐
0 is also included btw, I didn't see that before
There's also โค for 0
Yeah, you need to solve for the first one, since 2 is included in the interval 0<xโค2
What does the explanation to the answer say??
https://prnt.sc/P6tU5zk63Eyz apparently I needed to solve for the 2nd one
Then the question probably asked for the limit approaching 2 from the right
Am I reading this correctly? It's asking for the limit approaching 2 from both the right and left, right?
Idk, I was asking whether there was another part of the question above maybe, but if there isn't, then the answer it gives you is just wrong
The limit doesn't exist since the left and right limits aren't equal.
In order for it to not exist we'd also have to evaluate the 2nd option, which I thought I wasn't supposed to?
At this point, when am I supposed to evaluate both limits, and when am I supposed to evaluate just one?
The limit exists if and only if the left and right limits exist and are equal. One way to prove a limit doesn't exist is by showing that the left limit does not equal the right limit (in that situation it's called a jump discontinuity, since you'll see the function jump at that point).
So wait, even though 2 is not greater then 2, I'd still evaluate the function in the screenshot?
When talking about a limit, the value at the point itself does not matter. It doesn't even have to be defined.
To find the left limit we consider what the function looks like on the left, and see what it approaches as we get closer (but not equal to!) to 2. In this case it gets closer to ln(2). For the right limit, as we approach 2 from the right we get closer and closer to 4ln(2).
I'm still confused. Are you saying that we are supposed to evaluate both limits in all cases before choosing an answer?
If it's asking fora limit that's right in between two continuous parts of a function like this then yeah. Since you know the left and right limits exist and you can evaluate them by just plugging in the limit point.
Which you can do because each half is continuous, you just need to make sure that they join up nicely in the middle, i.e. the left and right limits are equal.

does anyone know how this goes from +2 +3 +3 +2 +9 +3 +2
and what comes next ๐คทโโ๏ธ
i don't sure but i have few options:
u(3n+1) = u(3n) + 3
u(3n+2) = u(3n) + 5
u(3n+3) = u(3n+1) + u(3n+2)
or
u(3n+1) = u(3n) + 3
u(3n+2) = u(3n) + 5
u(3n+3) = 3(u(3n))
but maybe the answer is not in the options
i believe its
u(n+3)=2u(n)-u(n-3)+8
what does that mean
the term in the sequence three steps ahead is 2 times the term we are looking at minus the term 3 units before +8
for example if we are looking at 13,
(29)=2(13)-(5)+8

This was for a group but I still didnโt get it apparently itโs $4.97 but I donโt understand the concept
Do I just plug in 2018 for x and thatโs it ? I might be overthinking it if that it
No
It's saying that x = 0 for 2002
So f(16) would be the price for 2018, since 2018-2002 = 16

How to write decimals as a fraction
My question is express 0.29 as a fraction
But how
Can somebody teach me
29/100
How did you get that
You know that the denominator is one right?
0.29รท1
Multiply by 100
Depends upon where the decimal point is
If 2 digits are after the decimal point then two zeros therefore 100
Otherwise if it were 0.291 then 291/1000
BUT
Don't forget to simplify the fraction
e.g. 0.40
40/100
Simplified is 2/5

<@&286206848099549185> How do we do this q?
Which part
c
so
from b) you have an equation which is satisfied by x - coords of A and B
notice that if x = p then:
p^3 - mp + mp - p^3 = 0
you can factor it now into linear and quadratic term
then find sum of roots of the quadratic term, divide it by 2 and it will be x-coord of M
I meant form ( linear term ) * (quadratic term )
OHHH
