$\csc \theta = 3x \newline \cot \theta = \frac 3x \newline 3(x^2 - \frac {1}{x^2}) = ?$
northsteve
Ok that’s ugly spacing
fr
What have u tried
thats the thing idk how to solve this at all
the reason i hate trigno is every question is diff
Find an expression for x and 1/x
Yes
then?
And 1/x?
1/x=cot theta /3
Yes
how exactly?
Yes
(x + 1)(x - 1) / x²
oh
You got x=csc(theta)/3
Yes
Find value of x²
i didnt understand
Just whole square both sides
like wdym put
You got x^2=(csc^2(theta))/9
Put that value of x^2 into 3(x^2-(1/x^2))
Same for 1/x^2
The cosec^2(theta) also has 9 as its denominator
And you got 1/(x^2)=(cot^2(theta))/9 put that value
It would be better if you try solving it on a paper
so ((cossec^2 theta/9)-(1/cosec^2 theta/9)
...

Is R^I supposed to be understood as the cartesian product where for each element in I we assign an element in R to it?
sure
another way to phrase that is that R^I is the set of all functions from I to R
or, the set of all real-valued functions on I

I would like some hints on how to solve this problem. I'm clueless where to start
(z1 and z2 are complex numbers)
Yes
the abosolute value of a complex number is just the modulus correct?
Yes
ok
Since I was clueless, I tried substituting x1+iy1 and x2+iy2, but the expression became extremely messy within some steps
everything cancels nicely?
Yes
ok
Thank you

Put together your secret message spell using the following powers and ingredients.
Powers
a. Frost 39
b. Nullification 35
c. Telekinesis 83
d. Empathy 91
e. Time Manipulation 36
f. Invisibility 19
g. Levitation 57
h. Clairvoyance 25
i. Pyrokinesis 61
j. Hydrokinesis 68
k. Healing 62
Ingredient
l. Ivy 49
m. Dragon's Blood 29
n. Tansy 77
o. Hawthorn 13
p. Hyssop 96
q. Rue 78
r. Unicorn Hair 11
s. Willow Bark 54
t. Basil 16
u. Juniper Berries 32
v. Moonflower 15
For the spell to be effective, you must make sure the numerical value of the spell is 876
The numerical value of the spell is calculated by adding up the numerical values of the powers and ingredients you choose.
For example, if you want a spell with the numerical value of 181, you would put together the following powers and ingredients:
c. Telekinesis 83 + f. Invisibility 15 + m. Dragon's Blood 29 + s. Willow Bark 54 = 181
So, the Answer will be !cfms
someone help me solve this
because no matter what I do I cannot solve it

h
please wait
does the order matter?
and is the "!" constant or another variable
the first one need to be 7 letter second is 6 letter
this is the so-called subset sum problem. there should be calculators online if you wanna cheat. it's a famously hard problem
and unless u want to look for an algorithm...
whats stopping u from using brute force
i doubt this is even a valid "question" to ask
u r making others do ur labour
ah
sorry then
I just sit for 2 hour
and cannot solve it
sorry to disturb I guess I thought this could help
you perhaps know any way I could solve?
hold up
I got the answer
but somehow is not correct
acdegijkmnopqsu
39+83+91+36+57+61+68+62
29+77+13+96+78+54+32
well lots of information online. I suppose the classic way is dynamic programming
@hazy wraith
the hint was that 3 power are not need to be used
To create a secret message spell with a numerical value of 876, you can combine the following powers and ingredients:
Powers:
a. Frost 39
c. Telekinesis 83
d. Empathy 91
g. Levitation 57
i. Pyrokinesis 61
k. Healing 62
Ingredients:
l. Ivy 49
p. Hyssop 96
q. Rue 78
s. Willow Bark 54
t. Basil 16
u. Juniper Berries 32
Total power value: 393
Total ingredient value: 325
To achieve a total value of 876, you can use the following combination:
Powers:
a. Frost 39
c. Telekinesis 83
d. Empathy 91
g. Levitation 57
i. Pyrokinesis 61
k. Healing 62
Total power value: 393
Ingredients:
l. Ivy 49
p. Hyssop 96
q. Rue 78
s. Willow Bark 54
t. Basil 16
u. Juniper Berries 32
Total ingredient value: 325
The spell can be represented by the following arrangement:
acdgi + lpuqstu = 393 + 325 = 718
To reach a total value of 876, you need to add an additional ingredient:
v. Moonflower 15
The revised spell arrangement becomes:
acdgi + lpuqstuv = 393 + 340 = 876
Therefore, the secret message spell using the given powers and ingredients, with a numerical value of 876, can be represented as:
acdgi + lpuqstuv
chatgpt?
wait hold up the hint he gave us was 3 power was not needed and 4 ingredient was also not needed
@silent plaza still not right
add up all numbers and check the difference to 876
then try to make that with 3 powers and 4 ingredients
thats a much smaller search space
no it like
8 power and 7 ingredients
does chat gpt give unique results? i got this:
To create a secret message spell with a numerical value of 876, you can combine the following powers and ingredients:
d. Empathy 91 + c. Telekinesis 83 + q. Rue 78 + t. Basil 16 + u. Juniper Berries 32 + v. Moonflower 15 + m. Dragon's Blood 29 + s. Willow Bark 54 + p. Hyssop 96 + o. Hawthorn 13 + r. Unicorn Hair 11 + j. Hydrokinesis 68 + l. Ivy 49 + k. Healing 62 = 876
So, the secret message spell would be: "!dtquvmsporgljklk"
to make 876 numerical
i refuse to believe my man did that by himself
its not something i'd consider maths
its just computation
stupid distinction in this case

(HINT: Only 3 Powers & 4 ingredients are NOT part of the spell 👀)
let me rephrase: chatpgt is forbidden on this server. dont use it or get banned
there that the hint
im not sure if that has humorous intent but i got no pings abt changed rules
it was changed weeks ago. check the rules
it seems so
8 powers and 7 ingredients to make 876 is equivalent to 3 powers and 4 ingredients to make (total sum)-876
and the second is much easier to solve
at least for our brains cause the numbers are smaller
ok now my brain is more fried
do they not ping here? thats so stupid
take it up with the moderators
they have the revision message which is visible unless you muted the channel
it is also in #changelog
also chatgpt is really terrible at math
my brain
is frying for 3 hours
I cannot solve it
can anyone help me with math
create a channel for help
my brain
it frying more
I cannot crak the secret message
haiya I am gonna cry
if you have eg 6 numbers {1,2,3,6,7,10} and want to find 4 that sum to 12, then you can also notice that all 6 together sum to 29, so (your four numbers)+(last two number)=12+(last two numbers) = 29, so the last two numbers sum to 17
which is easier to solve cause its only two numbers you have to worry about
here 17=7+10 so you choose all numbers except 7 and 10
in your problem, the total sum of all numbers is 1046
1046-876 = 170
so you are looking for 3 powers and 4 ingredients that sum to 170
and that is doable

f(x) = THE SQUARE ROOT OF x-2
g(x) = 5x + 2
Find: g(f(18))
how do i solve this i dont understand how to write it out
do you know function notation?
im gonna say no
XxMrFancyu2xX
yes
we use function notation because it's easier to know what we inputted for a given input
in this case $f(6)=2$
XxMrFancyu2xX
so 4
do you see why?
put it inside the g function
and thats it?
I suppose

But it's right
wdym?
I mean that he got 4 from f(18), which is right since the square root of 18-2 is equal to 4
@vast shale
yes yes
do u know the answer of 0 1/2
ohhhh ok ok 😅
i thought he was talking about 4 from 6-2

I tried to multiply all of the bottom together and then multiply 6 by 2x+5 and 4x² - 25, 2 by the denominators except its own and 60 by the denominators except its own too and I eventually got (64x³ + 160x² - 400x - 1000)/16x⁴ - 200x² + 625
but that doesbt look right because of the x⁴ and x²
omg
also missing parentheses around the denom in your thing
okay one second
ok so [2(2x+5) + 6(2x-5) + 60]/[(2x+5)(2x-5)]?
but also how do you get the Bx + C because it would be 4x² ?
on the denominator
clean up the numerator
(4x² + 12x + 40)/(4x²+25)
@coral plank Has your question been resolved?
no
help @paper depot
or anyone
that should be 4x^2 - 25 in the denom
how are you getting 4x^2 + 12x + 40 from 2(2x+5) + 6(2x-5) + 60
also yeah denom fucked up too
can you try writing down everything again
I wrote that in my answer on paper I swear
you have nothing to prove to us so you dont have to go that far...
it's embarassing
Iwait a min
I'll try
okay wait I might be onto sometjing

A
fair die is weighted so that the probability of rolling a side with
n dots on it
(1≤n≤6) is the proportion of the number of dots on that side to the total number dots on the die. Find the probability that if this die is rolled twice, the sum will be a 7.
how can i solve this without listing all the cases
listing out all the cases is the fastest way
really
thats annoying
like i did that
but im too lazy to calculate
is there a way where i can find a summation formula
or something
bc i quickly summed 1 to 6 using n(n+1)/2
i mean you went through the effort of pulling up discord, opening a help channel and having this conversation
couldve probably done it by now
what summation formula do you think exists
i figured out a summation formula

$\int _0^{\pi }cos^3\left(x\right):\cdot sen^5\left(x\right)dx$
$t=sen\left(x\right)dx$ ; $dt=cos\left(x\right)dx$
$\int _0^{\pi }dt^3\cdot t^5dt$
Chuti | Spanish
Lol dt³
This is why differentials are bad
You can't do that, no. You can only change the dx to a dt
I have never seen the "sen" function is it "sec"?
sin but for some languages
ahhh
I'm thinking OP is Spanish?
Oh lol it's in the name
Yeah 😄
helps a little doesn't it 🥴
A little less impressive yeah
anyways @torpid sequoia consider $\cos^{2}(x)=1-\sin^{2}(x)$
XxMrFancyu2xX
I'm aware of that, yes.
then maybe try ur sub :))
u talking to me?
yep!
oh no sub = substitution
no worries, probably should talk in formal english instead of being lazy and typing in slang 😂

ok I'm doing random stuff
look at this lmao
idk how should I solve it rly
like thats wrong though
ok wait I got to $t^5 - t^7$
Chuti | Spanish
how so
you can integrate that really easy
life aint easy 
idk I have to work, study, and study
anyways
who cares 🤣
I see the final result was 0 since this was the int from 0 to 0
but then why did I even went through all of that process 
but you wont next time :))
you are really happy bro 😄
cause I'll find out that this is an int from 0 to 0 ?
if ur never happy, then well, why live life is my philosophy
I'm not happy nor sad, I'm just living life 😎
haha
not complaining, just doing math
the dream
not for me tbh 🤣
but the next time you can skip some steps 
I would love to be studying the theory of asynchronous programming right now
not ints, but ok

haha nice emoji
for me that's ints
and I'm stuck reviewing the stupid Kreb's Cycle

you seem to be pretty good at them man, math is amazing don't give it the cold shoulder because of a bad school experience :))
oh no I'm not having a bad school experience
but I struggle with maths
also I got a 3 in the first exam and I studied a lot
and when I saw my mistakes, they were just so stupid! I could have easily passed with at least a 7 ;/

Of the vehicles in a parking lot, 38.75 percent are trucks and 52.5 percent are cars. What fraction of the vehicles in the parking lot are neither trucks not cars
So the way I did this was I knew if 38.75% was trucks then 61.25% will not be trucks
And since 52.5% is cars then 47.5% would not be cars
Am I doing it correctly?
So far
wouldnt it be easier to add them
you know that 90.25% are trucks or cars
soo the rest would be neither
goodluck
I over thought it
How do you convert a decimal to a fraction

should v (vector) have the arrow above it?
for proper notation
i've seen it written without sometimes
the arrow signifies it's a vector, not just a random variable
I mean if you write:
v = (a, b)
or something alike, it's really clear that it's a vector, so I could see it written without, but otherwise just put an arrow
"ai bj"
what's up with that?
both represent the component form of a vector
I've never seen it written as "ai+bj" though, where do i and j come from?
hmmm yeah
it's a linear combination of the basis vectors i and j
is it standard notation that i = <1, 0> ?
keto11
not to be confused with unit vector
1
wait avidrunner
unit vector = <1, 0> or <0, 1>
it's your help channel
yeah it is
what was your question?
↑
basis vector and unit vector mean the same thing?
not exactly. I think a basis vector is whatever you use to do a linear combination
correct me if i'm wrong Keto
oh yeah it should, but sometimes it's just implied or it's written without cause people are lazy
|u|=1 is the magnitude of vector u
1 is the magnitude, and therefor the unit vector
it can also be OV which is the vector from the origin to v
too many ways to learn the same thing with different notation
basis vectors can be unit vectors but in general they just define a coordinate system
it's like learning Python, C++, Java syntax altogether... gotta learn them all
wish math was more standardized but i digress.. it is what it is.. too late to change it..
i guess another way to look at it: a school should follow one syntax for teaching math
should, but most likely doesn't..
gotta learn them all.. it is what it is...
there are reasons for different syntaxes existing, people werent just like oh youre writing it that way? fuck you ill write it this way
flabby sheaves
Leibniz Lagranage and Euler notations for derivatives in a nutshell
pretty sure physicists said conjugate linear in the "other component" for inner products, just as an FU to mathematicians
whats a good reason to write a vector ai+bj rather than <1,3> ?
lol this is the one exception
avid: exception? must be the norm
it was useful in my recent symplectic geometry exam
look at this symple dude

Basically simplifying so it's one trig function
im not sure how to use identities
i have my final tomorrow i just need to understand it
For the first one, what's csc equal to?
1/sinθ
And that simplifies to?
That's it
what about 2
What's 1 - cos^2 equal to?
sin^2θ
Do you see something on there that could be equivalent to 1 - cos^2?
(1-sin^2θ)/(sin^2θ)
No
No
.
-sin^2θ-1
Why are you focused on the denominator?
What is?
Stop focusing on the denominator
I am asking you what 1 - cos^2 is equal to
sin^2θ
What is the expression you have now?
(sin^2θ)/(cos^2θ)
And that equals what?
tan^2θ?
Yes
yeah im lost
Did you try what I suggested
Yes
i mean what do i do now
What do you have when you wrote that in terms of sin and cos?
[(sinθ)/(cosθ) + cotθ]/(sinθ)/(cosθ)
What's cot in terms of sin and cos?
1/[(sinθ)/(cosθ)]
And that's equal to?
cos/sin
no
You don't know how to add fractions?
not without a common denominator
Can you find a common denominator?
cosine
yes
Can you add the fractions in the numerator, using a common denominator?
Do you know how to find a common denominator
What was the common denominator of the numerator?
1/sin^2theta now
thats csc
csc^2θ
did i go the right direction
i just did costheta times sintheta as the denominator
i remembered how to combine fractions
i crammed recently for sat so my math brain is ruined

Why can you use the cross product of two vectors to get the plane parallel to the original two vectors
i don't understand why you can take the function for the cross product vector, find a constand, and it becomes the plane parallel to the original 2 vectors
planes are uniquely determined by their normal vector and a point on the plane
so you're using some points on the plane to find the normal vector
oh oh i see
so each point in the normal vector is a parallel plane to plane parallel to the original 2 vectors
?
and the constant shifts that plane
"each point in the normal vector" i dont quite follow
but i think you mean there are many parallel planes with the same normal vector
then yeah spot on

Linear Algebra, Im not sure how you could get A to be alone on 1 side and have no A on the other. I did the first step I believe is correct then stopped there (i could find the inverse if needed but not sure if that would be wasting time or not)
is $(A+B)^{-1}=(B^{-1}+A^{-1})$
AustinU
try testing it out with A=B=I
sorry not sure what you mean
let's say we wanted to test this property of matrices in general
for any matrices A and B
we want to know if it is true
you can test it out by letting A and B both be the identity matrix
try 2x2
it will be clear if the property holds or not
yeah that property makes sense but not sure how that helps in the question
it's not a property
your first step is incorrect
does (AB)^-1 = A^-1 * B^-1?
oh i see what you mean now thanks
but now i’m on step 0 and still unsure how to make A alone
i can get A- alone on the left side at most i can’t get pass that even thought i could inverse À- and get A it makes the other side even more complicated
multiply the right by A^-1 on both sides
ok and you get A-1[]A-1 on the left side
no
let's go back
you start with A^-1[] = ...
what is the inverse of A^-1B
that is, what is $(A^{-1}B)^{-1}$
maximofs
B-1A?
yes
im going to call those other two matrices B and C
because i don't want to write them out
inverting both sides we get
$B^{-1}A = C - 2A$

why not just $u=9z$?
XxMrFancyu2xX
Does that really accomplish all that much though lol
i mean makes life a little easier but not much as far as computation goes lol 
$\frac 19 \int (u^5 + 4u^2)(u^3 + 1)^{12} \dd u$
neonperseus

You can factor our u^2 and substitute u^3 = t
That will help a lot
$\frac{1}{27} \int (t + 4)(t + 1)^{12} \dd t$
neonperseus
If you wanna go further you can say t + 1 = v
@urban obsidian Has your question been resolved?
so you mean like a double substitution
honestly this doesn't look that much easier to compute right? Lol
so you'd have like integral of (v+3)(v)^12
and then i have to undo subbing like 3 times right
I've not done multiple substitutions before, could i get a headsup
I'm familiar with the process but just need to know i'm not going astray
Yes
It's not that big of a deal
where'd that u^2 go?
whoops
into the differential element
right ofc
$u^3 = t \implies u^2 \dd u = \frac 13 \dd t$
neonperseus
yep just brain wasn't working 
Lol
Happens to the best of us
whoop sorry i had to do something but continuing from where we left off, we'd have:
$\frac {1}{27} \int (v+3)(v^{12}) \text{ dv }$
hii_
Now just distribute v^12 and use the power rule
integrating we have:
$\frac{1}{27} \left[\frac{v^{14}}{14} + {\frac{3v^{2}}{2}}\right]$
hii_
$\frac{1}{27} \left ( \frac{v^{14}}{14} + \frac{3v^2}{2} \right ) + C$
so what do i sub in here?
Oh well
v = t+1
Now work backwards
and then t = u^3
Yes
and u = 9z
Yep
neonperseus
oh yeah lol
Yup
okay that's nice
for some reason i thought this was going to be super convoluted back subbing
because i was thinking about something else i guess
so multiple substitutions are a good thing i guess
As long as it's all algebraic it's not that bad
wdym?
If you had a trig sub or something in between it would get pretty nasty
But still doable right?
oh i see what u mean actually
right yes that makes sense
It is doable
cuz of all the solutions u have to take into account
That's basically how you do $\int \sqrt{\tan x} \dd x$
neonperseus
oh damn
I'm reviewing my calculus and don't quite remember trig substitutions
When i reach there soon i will try that
It's not very different from regular u subs
it's basically just x = tan(theta) or something of that form, i guess?
You just use a trig ratio instead of a new variable
Generally yes
I remember there was weierstrass too right? Is that part of trig sub
ah so just half angle
why is it not trig sub when you're technically using trig functions
And you use half angle identities for it
It's used to go from a trig integral to a rational one
Also I've heard of a second sub with the same name that being x = (1 + t)/(1 - t) so idk what Id call it
No clue lol
i think i've seen euler's sub
in the trig sub page or something when i was reading something
isn't that for rational functions too
yeah but I've never used it personally
would you even be required to know all of this subs lol? Tbh i only knew usub, trig sub, partial integration, and weierstrass
is something else of importance?
i just use my code for numerical approximations for the most part
so idk if there's other techniques that might be ubiquitous enough for me to have to learn them

Quick question; I'm a bit confused as to how exactly the answer is simplified to what's completely at the bottom
I understand the integration process, just confused how exactly you'd simplify the result into what's presented at the end :)
Just rewrite (x^2 + 1)^(3/2) as (x^2 + 1) * sqrt(x^2 + 1) and make common denominators

How do I do this
first and second derivatives
thats v_1 and v_2
thats a_1 and a_2, now find when a_1 = a_2, then take that x and plug it into the v's
write it out every time, stops you from making mistakes
yes 5/3
now plug and chug for v
idk lol, if not me someone else will help
derivatives are fairly basic here in this server.

$V_{sphere}=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$
b0ngl0rd
well whats our rate of change of the radius?
dv/dt*9 = dr/dt
how do you suppose that
I dont know
we need to set up an equality
How do we do that
So dr/dt cacnel out
yep
3/2
looks good to me

How to rasionalise the numerator?
You can you L'Hopital for this
How to do this?
Use*
2x / (sqrt6X^2 + 6x) + 3x sqrt 2
Did you multiply by the conjugate of the numerator?
Good
You mean you multiplied the denominator too
Not with the conjugate of the denominator
Right
Yes
Yep
?
Just answer this
Factor out x
No
?
Factor simplify same thing
To get 1 / 2sqrt2
Wrong
2x / 3x ( sqrt 2x + 2 + sqrt2 )
4/y
2x/(x×(sqrt(2x+2)+sqrt2))

doubt
the red bit is the question
blue bit is the method
which ive used
it is wrong
and i know the answer is e^5
and ik the method how to get that
but i wanna know why this method doesnt work
im relatively new to limits so if anyone could explain in easy-ish terms
that would be great
short answer: you cannot plug in infinity for some cases
the problem is, you calculated the limit of inside the brackets while also NOT calculating the limit in the exponent
"intuitive" explanation: if you plug in infinity you get$$ (1^+) ^\infty$$ which isn't necessarily 1
qwertytrewq_hashtag_7770
its important to know when not to plug in infinity, for example: when you get answers like $$1^\infty, 0\times \infty, \infty+\infty, \infty -\infty$$

ah
right okay, thank you
hopefully you will eventually learn a more formal definition of limit, and things may make more sense, but at the moment, just understand that plugging in infinity could be really weird some time.

Do you know any conclusions for the expression 1-cosx?
There's a separate formula for it
no

why we didnt calculate one of the lines
The line crossed out is not part of the perimeter
The perimeter is the distance along the outside of the figure
oh so always we do that?
Yeah for the perimeter. You can image the perimeter as the path you would walk if you were to walk around the figure 😄
