found this online
practicing right now
and a friend said
its wrong
or looks wrong idk
wanna make sire
according to the normal rules of operator priority, tan 2x - 4 tan x means tan(2x) - 4tan(x), not tan(2x-4) tan(x)
i dont get this
the first line is already wrong, so if the answer is right it's a total coincidence
what don't you get?
ok
and let you guys know my answer
sure
thanks alot
happy to check your work if you want

when graphing sin/cos, how do i determine the points on the x axis from the center point to the period?
say i have a period of 3pi
and a scale of 3pi/4
what do i do to determine the numbers between?

Could anyone help me?
One moment, I'll translate for you
Have to choose the function, when for each x of its domain f(-x) = -f(x)
for each of the functions you have to find f(-x) and -f(x) and see if they're the same
But there's not functions like that
2/x ?
yeah
But if f(-x) = 2/-(-2) = 1
@twin rampart Has your question been resolved?
But if we plug -2 in -(2/x), it's still 1

is 5/6π the radiant of 150°?
Radian, yes
so it's right?
Change $\pi$ to $180^o$
MochaOhwelp
so i should write it 2/6180?
$150^o \cdot \frac{\pi}{180^o}=?$
MochaOhwelp
Should be this one

No. 4 and 5 only
supposedly this question is linked to a diagram
Yep
This is the trianhle
can you post the full question
you're cutting off important information linked to the diagram
Its actually just "Given AI= 3x - 2 and MC = 9x - 13
Just that nothing else
did you do Q1?
Multiply AI by 2
Ooohhhhh
so 2AI = MC right?

Cant find the point P
express the equation of the tangent in a general manner, such that when you use the info that (1, 0) belongs to it, you get the only tangent solution (and then deduce P)
y = f'(a)(x-a) + f(a)
= (2a-3)(x-a) + a² -3a + 18
that's what the tangents looks like
which ones goes through (1, 0) ?

I have a question regarding standard deviation and measurement uncertainty
I know of these 2 formulas for calculating standard deviation for a sample or population experiment
but in our physics labs we're told to use this
I am unable to find any resources about it in english
In Polish they call it "niepewność standardowa średniej" which translates to "the standard uncertainty of the mean"
I was also wondering why this way to calculate standard deviation isn't available in excel
or at least I can't find it
It should be STDEV for standard deviation i think
that calculates it for a sample
so it only divides by n-1
whilee stdev.p calculates for the population and divides it only by n
I know I could calculate it by calculating stdev.s and then dividing it by sqrt(n)
but my question is whether somebody knows where I can find information about this
and whether excel has a built in function for it

how do you know how many stationary points there r
The highest power of the equation should help
To find and classify you need to differentiate first and then again to find if it’s minimum or maximum
ye i did
For the first one?
To classify yes
so it = 0 which means its inflection point right
Yes so you need to do the first derivative test
ye gg i got that
for the second one
why does x = + or - 1 though
would it not just be 1
Because the power on the x term is even so there’s two solutions
is that always the case then
If the power is even yes
and if its odd is der one solution?
Yes
legend ty !
No problem! :))

Anyone help me pleaee

(sqrt(9 + 4sqrt(5))) * (sqrt(9 - 4sqrt(5)))
How to solve it?
solve what
I just dont get how to multiple
That
calculate or solve
Simplify
(a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2
Look at the picture
18 - 2 * (sqrt(9 + 4sqrt(5))) * (sqrt(9 - 4sqrt(5)))
$\left(\sqrt{9+4\sqrt{5}} - \sqrt{9-4\sqrt{5}}\right)^2 = 9+4\sqrt{5} - 2\sqrt{81 - 80} + 9 -4\sqrt{5}$
Herels
How did you multiply?
I just used (a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2
$\sqrt{9 + 4\sqrt{5}} \sqrt{9 - 4\sqrt{5}} = \sqrt{(9+4\sqrt{5})(9-4\sqrt{5})}$
Herels
🙄
I think I did something wrong
OMG, I haven't seen that )
Why?
You did alright in here )
not here
But where?
oh well I did nothing wrong I checked

okay guys so this is a 100% serious inquiry
is there any way for me to discover a new mathematical constant (like pi) in a reasonable amount of time with litle to no knowledge
Why
it would be really funny to be able to give it like a common name
You can take any number you like and call it whatever you like, but its unlikely people will 1) care about your number 2) listen to you
no but i seriously want to make something that hasnt been discovered and give it a name that will stick around
First you need to be good at math
Okay first get a PhD in maths
okay
Better to study engineering also
then
Then come back and ask again
you do not need to be so condescending towards my idea
Again, people will only care the number is useful or interesting and even then probably only care if you're somewhat of an established mathematician
Anyone can "discover" a constant
well then how do i get to that point without being established

can someone double check this for me
It looks like you're trying to find a function such that its gradient is the field
Is that what a potential function means?
Looks fine with me if that's what a potential function is

A motorist fills the tank of her car with unleaded petrol, which costs $1.57 per litre. Her tank can hold a maximum of 60 litres of petrol. When she started filling the tank, there was already 7 litres in it.
Let c be the cost of adding v litres of petrol to the tank.
a Write down a linear model in terms of c and v to represent this situation.
b Sketch the graph of showing the coordinates of the intercept and it send point.
c Use the model to predict the cost of filling the tank of her car with petrol.
pls help
the linear equation i made was c = 7 + 1.57v
but when i go to the answers it is wrong 🤨
Do you know what the answer is?
Because at that time, there was just 7 liters
What if the motorist had 2 liters?
Or 5? Or 25
There's not a set starting value, it's just asking for the equation that relates volume and cost
i dont rlly get it
it literally says there was 7liters already in it, would this be the starting value
Let c be the cost of adding v litres of petrol to the tank.
You're creating a general equation
wouldnt it be c = 2+fjefefu
it's asking for the cost of adding a certain amount to the tank, not the cost of filling it to a certain level
For just the cost
That's just for that specific case
The question is generic
Meaning in general, what would be the cost of gas based on the volume
mm ok
The problem gave 7 liters and a max of 60 liter tank because that means overall, the motorist can only fill 60 - 7 liters, or 53 liters of fuel
That's the interval
She can fill 0 liters and up to 53
As mentioned
the motorist can only fill 60 - 7 liters, or 53 liters of fuel
yh
She already has an existing 7 liters
And her tank can only hold 60 liters
Could she fill 100 liters of gas?
ofc not
What about 54 liters? Could she fill that much?
no?
She has 7 liters already, if she adds 54 liters, will her tank hold that much?
An empty 20 L cylindrical beer keg is to be filled with beer at a constant rate of 5 litres per minute.
Let V be the volume of beer in the keg after t minutes.
a The beer keg is filled in 4 minutes; write down a linear model in terms of V and t to represent this situation.
b Sketch the graph showing the coordinates of the intercept and its endpoint.
c Use the model to predict the volume of beer in the keg after 3.2 minutes.
ok
for this question
what would the 0<t< thing be?
wouldnt it be 20L because that is the max?
Yes
Because you were asking about the volume
The beer keg is filled in 4 minutes
The max volume is 20 L
The graph is t vs volume
Meaning t is on the x axis
So the most the time can go to is 4 min
ohhhhh ok
prob last question
will the 0<t< thing always be t?
like will it always be (x)
Normally

,rotate
Which question we takin' a look at?
We have to use synthetic division but I wasn’t sure how to set it up
16 mainly but hopefully understand so I can do both
Wdym guessing
The way you set up synthetic division involves having a root to test
So you can check if the remainder is 0
Just plug until remainder is 0
Ye
X+1?
Yes
What do I do with it
Well you have the coefficients of the quotient of (given polynomial) / (x + 1)
given f(x) = (x+1)(2x^2 - 7x - 4)
What do I do to get the rest of the answers
Yea I ended up getting that
👍
Then what
You can factor it
Yes I believe
,rotate
Oh yea u right
,rotate
What about this one it seems different
I have the first root and factored form
But there’s 5 numbers now not 4 to factor
4 not 3*
,rotate
How did you get that
You can check your result by graphing
(original polynomial)
and
(factor you just found) * (resulting polynomial)
These are the coefficients of the new polynomial

find the derivative of the following
is that plus or multiplication in between where you used chain rule?
it is multiplication, I accidenatlly wrote plus
yes it's multiplication
after this part what do I do next?
Pretty much just simplify once you've done your power rule, chain rule, quotient rule
okay okay ill try
So like tis?
what is in the denominator?
(2x + 1)^2
this may be right
Yes this looks good, althought you'll want the ^(1/2) on the set of parentheses you see there
You can check w a derivative calculator
ah the one on the right?
,w differentiate sqrt((1+3x^2)/(2x+1))
Yes
I always forget this command
ahh yeah

Hi, I’m a little stuck on 5c here. I understand most of the problem but I’m having trouble understanding why the answer key says “when 0 = x(t) = tcos(pit) we have t = 0, t = 1/2, or t = 3/2”. The question states that I’m supposed to find the tan line to the path when the particle crosses the negative y-axis, but I’m unsure how this ties in. Why do you set x(t) equal to 0?
Because the y axis is located at x = 0

Here is a vector resolution question. The teachers working is also attached. I get why the answer is C (as they resoluted with respect the the plane) , but I did it with respect to the i-cap and j-cap vectors. My working is attached. Obvious since the question is multiple choice I need to make sure its in the same form, but why does my answer give different values when I assume a m, g, F and theta value?

https://i.imgur.com/RfHSHys.png how do I know that there is a horizontal shift of a cosine function here?
I guess my mistake is doing (pi/2)x = 1.3 seconds
I ended up with pi/2.6
obviously they provide the period of 3
but if they didn't, would I be able to find what kind of a function it is?
let's go with that still, please, thanks

im confused about what this question is asking for
i expanded out and used summation rules but my answer was incorrect
could you show your working
this is what i have so far
but idk how to go fruther
there would certainly be a n^3 term if you expanded it correctly
n(2n^2+3n+1)=2n^3+3n^2+n
yeah, write your brackets in on the first line though
if you fix that in your original answer it should be right
ah yep got it
i was just doing the algebra wrong

couldnt find a good one idk
ok, let me draw for u
i wanna graph it myself
go to desmos.com and then write the equation
if u cant see anything then check if the graph icon is enabled
but if you still cant see anything then maybe desmos is crashing
what what
i think this is crashing
damn
he doesnt have a y=
put y= infrton of the equation
you simply stating that doesnt mean anything
oh lol
oh yeah lol
try using geogebra
geogebra yucky
no ithink desmos í best
😠
is
if your on windows, clcik on caluclator and change to graphcial
true
put in your formula and click the little lightening
and it gives you all the info you need about the graph
maxima and minimas roots periods ect
I have just learned today that the windows calculator can do a lot of things
okay
graphing
Well yes and no
how
plslsss explain
it just depends at what level your taught at
by the question at the start my guess is you would assume yes
and btw
your function
is weird
yea
ive never seen one like that its so weird
idk how to deal w it
Well
You see
your thing
isnt really a function
DOnt quote me on this as im not a maths student
but
make if x was 0.5
'y' would be complex
as the sqrt of a negative number
is complex
but lets say we re-write 0.5 as 2/4
than this is psosible
as we square the number and than 4th root it
which is possible as squaring a negative number makes it positive
you see
and since 2/4 = 1/2
your function is not a function
as a function defines as 1 input 1 output, not 1 input multiple outputs
kinda makes sense tbh
can we graph it as two functions?
Like i said
function would yield complex numbers
and i have no clue where you would plot these

Anyone see the my mistake?
@brave ruin I think it's because you wrote du = 7, wich isn't true, du = 7dx
then you can divide by 7 and get dx on its own
Oh okay
Honestly I don't fully understand the substitution for dx or du
What don't you understand? Anything specific or the whole process?
Well
Why isn't du = 7 not true
Oh wait
Uhhh
hm?
yes, you would end up with 1/7 in front of your integral
In (4)??
Oh I see whatnyoure saying I think
So
Instead of just du
It would be 1/7 du
Right?
yup

Hi,
I had a question about using Horner's Method. Is it true that for any degree d polynomial, Horner's Method will evaluate the polynomial to have exactly d multiplications and d addition/subtractions? And if so, would the polynomial below have 3 addition/subtractions and 3 multiplications?

Explain how I'd do this using the x-1 key
To get 0.08, I've gotten 0.8 but that isn't the answer
Also as far as my understanding goes 1/1/5 =1/5
the expression 1/1/5 is vague
(1/5)/5 == 1/(1/5)
in either case its not 1/5
anyway, not sure what you mean by x-1 key
Inverse key
oh right
1/x or x-1 depending on ur calculator
so what are you putting in your calculator
you're completely right without that mistake though
I get 2.9 without inversing one time
0.344 when I do
I did it like this now
(5^-1+5^-1+(5^-1+5^-1)^-1)^-1
oh wait
you can just put (5 + 5 + (5^-1+5^-1)^-1)^-1
the denominator is 5 + 5 + (5^-1+5^-1)^-1
definitely isnt
It is
Because the answer wS 1/0.08
Was trying to figure out how to get 0.08 under
But how does it work?
Bro that calculator would've saved me so much time

Can you help me solve this one
who "you"?
make 3 points and label them as balls and write their lenghts
hint:use the laws of cosine with a=18, b=14 and c=12
It might be a little bit more like this
you aren't told nor should you assume that you have a right triangle here
5,14,18 isn't a pythagorean triple so you dont
this looks correct. Use the law of cosines:

What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
i found the gradient of ab which was 2
then i did dy/dx = 3x-12x^-2
then i set dy/dx =2 but i dont know what to do now
Ok, what did you get after differentiation
my dy/dx value is 3-12x^-2
$3-\frac{12}{x^{2}}=\frac{dy}{dx}=2$
Try_hard
Now, you can find the value of x which satisfy the above equation.
yeah im not sure what to do after this though
oh
dont i need 2 x values though
Well, have find coordinate of C and D, hence you will need two values of x
Can you simplify to this step $1=\frac{12}{x^{2}}$
Try_hard
yeah i just take 2 from both sides
Yes, after you got, the answer then you can substitute the answer in the original equation and find the y coordinates of the points

(Number 10) I seem to have conflicting notes, which one is the right method for finding PR²?
do you have a clear pic
Let me rewrite the one written in pencil, wait a min
Here is a pic with both methods
The angle at point R and the angle at point Q
that first line isn't a correct representation of the sine rule/law
you can't ditch the sin there
which was present in the following line
looking at the rest now, gimme a min
this issue is that the original diagram doesn't make sense
the interior sum of that triangle is somehow 110°
the given pairs of angles and sides don't satisfy the sine law/rule either
IF the values in the question are valid,
provided that there's sufficient info, both sine and cosine rule/law would be valid approaches
however since the diagram/question is invalid, it all turns to crap
wait
is that a 45 or 115
It's a 115
,w 25/sin(52 deg)
that's quite off
the relation isn't valid, so depending on the method used (which ignores certain aspects)
there'll be a different result
Hmmm, my calculator produces a different result though
52 radians ≠ 52 degrees
calc in in radians
So that was the problem...
that's part of the problem
either way the value from each method will be different
in this case differs by around 0.5
Thanks, I checked it on a different problem and it seems that both methods work

hello. the problem is:
"A coffee vending machine is designed to dispense 180 ml of coffee but its owner suspects that it is dispensing more than what is designed for. He took a random sample of 40 and found out that the mean is 192 ml with a standard deviation of 4 ml. Do you think the owner is right about his suspicion? Test at 0.05 level of significance."
I used the formula for Z-test to look for the Z-score given that sample size is > 30. But the answer I get is 18.97. Am i wrong or should I use a different formula?

Suppose a researcher investigates the performances of randomly selected teachers in 4 schools. The variance of their performance rating is shown below.
School A - 3.1
School B - 4.9
School C - 1.7
School D - 3.2
Which set of data probably has the points closest to the mean? Why?
a.
School D because the value of the variance is 5, which is very close to the mean performance rating of all schools.
b.
School A because the value of the variance is 3.1, which is very close to the mean performance rating of all schools.
c.
School B because the variance is the highest. The higher the variance, the closer the set of data points to the mean.
d.
School C because the variance is the smallest. The smaller the variance, the closer the set of data points to the mean.
prop d
i guess
this is how standard deviation is calculated
where variance is square of sd
thats for sample, population is with just n

How do I solve this?
when I expand and subtract, i just get a linear equation
I haven't written it out myself, but if you have a linear equation relating x and y, can't you just substitute y out of one of the original equations and solve the resulting quadratic?
one second i will expand
yes you should get a linear because second power values of x have equal coefficients
when u get a linear you can find a relationship between x and y and use that to solve the problem

Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be a continuous function. Let $E\subseteq X$. ($E\neq \varnothing $). Let $y\in \overline{f(E)}$. Let $(y_n){n\in\mathbb{N}}\in f(E)^{\mathbb{N}}$ such that $\lim{n\rightarrow \infty } y_n = y$.
Show that there is a convergent sequence $(x_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}\in E^{\mathbb{N}}$ such that $f(x_n) = y_n \forall n \in \mathbb{N}$.
Casiel368
The part of finding a sequence such that f of that sequence is y_n is easy. But I have to be a bit more careful with that because if I choose any sequence it might not be convergent when f is not injective
Take $y_n = 1-\frac{1}{n}, x_n = (-1)^n - \frac{(-1)^{n}}{n}$ with $X = Y = \mathbb{R}$ and $f = |x|$
Casiel368
ignore the +1 in the (-1)^n+1

The Laurent expansion of the function like this is kinda impossible
You first need to simplify it
Do its partial fraction decomposition
Make it two fractions
yes

That should do it!

hello, I need help finding a basis of the kernel of this matrix
every video about it that i find seems to solve it through linear systems, but the second row is null in row echelon form, so I'm not sure on how to do it
so you found a row echelon form
nice
so you know the dimension of the kernel right?
use the rank nullity theorem
i'm not sure tbh, is it the number of non-null rows?
so do you know what is the rank of a matrix?
yes (i'm having sort of a language barrier here, sorry)
which language?
portuguese
yeah ok forget it
so this would be true for a square matrix
the rank is the dimension of the image
and the nullity is the dimension of the kernel
as the image in this case of dimension 2 at most*
because the output of a matrix product is of dimension 2
at most*
the rank is read
by the number of non zero rows
in echelon form
because the dimension of the image is at most the number of rows
so here rank =1 right
yes
and using rank nullity theorem
you can find the dimension of the kernel (the nullity)
the theorem is
rank + nullity = dim(E)
where E is the starting space
or equivalently
dim(E) = number of columns
so here nullity = ?
2?
yes
so we need for our basis of the kernel
only 2 vectors
non linearly depend
ant
so lets find (x,y,z)
such that M(x,y,z)^T = (0,0)^T
so as in the videos
find solutions of the system
does ^T mean transposed?
do I transpose the original matrix or the echelon form?
you dont transpose the matrix
this is on the (x,y,z) vector
so that (x,y,z)^T
is vertical
the problem is that i'm not sure on how to go on from here, as there seems to be no independent variable
@mellow rapids Has your question been resolved?
How to solve this?
what do I do after reaching 0 = 0?
it was this
finding a basis of the kernel for this matrix
you shouldnt reach 0 = 0 really
oh im stupid
you cant solve it any further than this
my bad
so just chose two values for x and y
and z is given
by the first equation
then chose two other values (such that the vector wont be linearly dependant)
and z is given and you have your second vector
for example x=1, y =0
and x=0, y=1
find the z for each
and you have two vectors v1 v2 such that
Mv1 = 0
and Mv2=0
Guys guys, the first equation and the second equation are the same
Notice that the second is just the first scaled by (-3)
i know
