im not sure what you mean
Suppose that x=-2 and a change occur in time so x became x=-1 y’-y=4-1=3 but the derivative is 2x= so 2*-2=-4 therefore how is that possible ?

A Carnot engine operating between temperatures T1 and T2 has efficiency 1/6. When T2 is lowered by 62 K, its efficiency increases to ⅓. Then T1 and T2 are, respectively
Uh frst found the efficiency now m confused
how do you do this: Show that 25x^2+4y^2-200x+16y+316=0 is the equation of an ellipse and from its center find the length of each axis.
im upto here: 25((x-4)^2-16) + 4((y+2)^2-4) = 316.
@foggy thunder Has your question been resolved?
Leave the perfect square expressions divisible alone, then you get the form $25(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=\lambda$ for some $\lambda$. Can you get this into the desired form $(x-h)^2/a^2 + (y-k)^2/b^2 = 1$?

Can someone help me with the second question please
With question b please
2,5 means 2.5?
put value of A and B
you get
9a+q=2.5
and 4a+q=0
solve
@opal topaz done?
So I am solving for a and not q?
it is 2 variables in a eqn
simplify it to one
solve
and use the 2 variable eqn to find the 2nd one
we found a
a=1/2
q=-4a
this means q=-4(0.5)
=-2

ig so
but i want to know the method and stuff
like for i, a=5+4n and x can equal 1
but is there like more that im missing
There's a lemma that $ax\equiv 1 \pmod{b}$ has a solution if and only if $(a,b)=1$
Tardis
oh damn
so any number that isn't even for i?
Yes
and for ii is just not any multiple for 5
Yes
if m was equal to 6, would it just be 6n+-1
since 6n+2, 6n+3 and 6n+4 has a gcd>1
okok
tytyyyy
Even for any general c, $ax\equiv b \pmod{c}$ has a solution if and only if $(a,c)|b$.
Tardis
okok tytyyyyy

Ignore the incorrect working on line 2, can I ask if there is any significance to theta not being pi, pi/2 etc in this question?
Because the question could work entirely fine without those right
presumably one of the trig functions would be 0 at those points, although it wouldn't be undefined or anything, some cartesian equations with division wouldn't work?
something like that i think
Ohhhh
I see
By eliminating all the special angles where cos x or sin x = 0
U remove the possibility of having some expression that doesnt make sense at x = 0
yes

,w x^2+10x+11=0
well it factors, but not nicely
use the quadratic formula
you've dropped your brackets
the quadratic formula
,tex .quadratic formula
toby____
you should fix this issue first
only one of the x values would make sense
(you need to check which one is the minimum)
use the one of the derivative tests https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative_test
Hi
first derivative test might be slightly easier here
(alternatively look at the geometry of the curve - ie where are the asympototes)
Anyone taking calculus
Cause I need help
Please read #❓how-to-get-help
yes, you can find the second derivative of your function and use the second derivative test
dont worry about them then
stick with the second derivative test
huh?
differentiate the first derivative
dont substitute until after finding the second derivative
you've differentiated the wrong function
this is the first derivative
(its a mess to differentiate, thats why I suggested this ^)
yes for vertical asymptotes of rational functions
yeah looks fine
hm thats weird
lemme check your working
you've evaluated the squareroot incorrectly
yeah
use the quadratic formula
toby____
then leave "b^2-4ac" as a number without evaluating the squareroot
yeah, if you dont put the squareroot into a calculator, you will get that exact form
eek you didnt need to erase your second derivative
you can still use it
yeah
(for the second derivative test, dont bother doing exact arithmetic, just stick everything into a calculator)

Did I do my derivative wrong or something?
Limit on the left, derivative on the right
You have done the derivation correctly. But
You have put it wrongly in the limit expression.
oh
i thought i had to take the derivative of the 3x in the front as well
ah ok so it's 3 - 3 - 3tan^2x
unfortunately i still get 0 in both num/denom so i have to take yet another derivative?
dang then im lost
Try considering another approach.
from the start.
firstly how about we get rid of those 3x ?
Maybe substitute it with u.
@tulip pilot
writing it
Okay.
Okay. Well, i can't really think of another way to move on. Let me think for a moment.
No. No. Expansion form of sinx as an infinite degree polynomial.
oh then nope
I still can't think of another way to solve this.
oh that's alright
I can tell you using the expansion if you would like.
alright
Okay. Cool
So, sinx has an expansion form which goes like this.
sinx = x - (x^3)/3! + (x^5)/5! + (x^7)/7! + ....
This is taylor series expansion for sinx. Interesting thing is that for values really really small that is very close to zero, it gives fairly accurate values.
So, since our limit says that u goes to zero, i.e. u is very very small, we can replace sin by this series.
this is with the u substitution?
Another important thing is that we need not take many terms. As terms with higher power will be even smaller so we can ignore those.
You can imagine x to be u here. everywhere in the expression.
alright
Variable name doesn't matter.
Now, in the denominator, we put value of sin(u) using this series.
u - sin(u)
= u - (u + (u^3)/3!)
in the denominator?
We'll not take rest of the terms because this enough to remove the indeterminacy.
Coming to that.
uh (u + u^3 / 6)?
Umm... No. See properly. There was a u at first. We are subtracting (u + (u^3)/3!) from that.
We'll have
u - (u + (u^3)/3!)
= u - u - (u^3)/6
= -(u^3)/6
Is that okay?
yeah i see how you got that
Cool. Similarly, we'll use tan x expansion in denominator.
tan(x)= x + (x^3)/3 + (2x^5)/15 + (17x^7)/315 + ...
Do you just remember the expansions for these trig functions?
Here also, we'll take only 2 terms.
Nope. I look them up. They are often provided in exams if their usage is expected.
for tan x ?
yeah
yes
is there a reason why we only take 2 terms?
yes. First term is so that u cancels out. Right ?
Other term is for giving us answer.
See here.
Now, in denominator we'll have
u - (u + (u^3)/3)
= u - u - (u^3)/3
= -(u^3)/3
Does that make sense ?
Yeah I have this
i got positive 1/2
Yes
You are done. Now, perhaps there's some other way as well but i can't think of it.
Although, you can learn this method.
Oh. Wait. Yes
we did.
oh
Here term is actually u - (u - (u^3)/3!)
So we get (u^3)/6
o
Not the negative sign.
so the expansion was actually (x - x^3 / 3!) instead of (x + x^3 / 3!)
See here. the second term is negative.
i see! thank you
No problem. Using expansions sometimes helps. Perhaps you can employ this cool method at times now.
yeah im not sure if we can use it since we haven't covered it yet, but i'll do it anyways
again thanks for the help!

So I have actually asked this question in the probability, math topic, but I don’t think I’m understanding completely how to finish it off. Figured I’d go ahead and posted in the homework help to get more detailed answers. The person that was helping me is awesome, but I did not want to blow up that feed with a single question.
what is "c" vs "C"?
C is the same throughout. I think that just represents the constant.
AM-GM inequality should help with the last inequality
I think I am unsure as to how to get the c^2/4. I can somewhat follow how to come up with the m(c-m), but the last part I do not understand.
AM-GM?
i dont think AM GM is necessary
or just use the parabola vertex formula
since you know this is a downward facing parabola
so differentiate d/dc?
the simplest version, namely: 4xy <= (x+y)^2
So deriving with respect to mu, I come to c-2m. If I were to do that again, I just get -2
I am going to brainstorm and come back in a second...
Alright, so honestly I am not too sure what that means being -2. BUT taking the antiderivative of cm (which would be E(X^2)) gives me c (m^2/2) for E(X) which is also the mean?
I think I went down the wrong rabbit hole, but I am drawing a blank...
we have dV/d(mu) = c - 2*mu
what's the condition on dV/d(mu) so that mu could potentially minimize V ?
@solid mist
It cannot be above 0?
it has to be 0
your typical calc 1 stuff
@solid mist
and since the 2nd derivative is negative everywhere, you know it will be a maximizer
I haven't had to do calculus in a while. Thank you for the help!

Can someone please explain what he said
Another question
With the second pic
If do f(0) = | 0 - 2 | - 3
Doesn’t that give you -1
But if you plot x = 0 thats not y = -1
He's saying the domain and range has the same inequality.
Yes it is
You mean that the domain and range must both be equal or greater than zero?
It's not "perfect" but it passes through y = -1
Thats not the part I mean. The part that follows
You mean about the sqrt(2x - 5)?
Ok I get it better now
Yes
Now I’m confused on
How do you factor out the two
Because your horizontal transformation only works when its factored out
2x - 5
How do you think about factoring out the 2?
How would you factor out a 2 from 2x - 6?
Can u give simple bit about factoring
Ok so the common factor between 2 and 5
@karmic imp
1
2x/1 -5/1
??
Math suks
The logic with factoring, is pulling out that factoring and dividing all the terms by that factor
For 2x - 5, what's the coefficient in front of x?
Yes, you're supposed to get a fraction
Now I’m confused about where the 2 goes, how does it distribute
You need that factor outside
You "pulled" the 2 out
So it's 2(x - 5/2)
By factoring out a 2
You just can't divide all the terms by the coefficient in front of x, that 2 needs to go somewhere
So it goes outside
Oh..
What happens to one side happens to the other
Is that what you mean
I hate maths
If you understand how to factor 2x - 6
The same logic applies to 2x - 5
The difference is, you're going to have fractions
Why does the 2 need to go somewhere
dldh06
$2x - 5 = 2\left(x - \frac{5}{2}\right)$
dldh06
Alright
Do u have a simple explanation for how f(x) = 2x - 5
the 2 compresses the graph
You should understand transformation of functions
You can google things you don't know

factoring out -x+5
-(x -5)
are you dividing -x by -1?
How is 5 a factor of -1?
How was 5 a factor of 2 here? It doesn't matter if it's a factor or not, you can still divide all the terms by some number
You may end up with a fraction, you may not
Right

I don't think I understand this problem very well and I think it's because the example that was provided wasn't very clear. I do think I understand what a probability distribution is.
Assume that the total probability of all the events (having no impurities, having impurity A, having impurity B) sums up to 1, i.e., $P(Y=0) + P(Y=1) + P(Y=2) = 1$. You should use this fact along with the given probabilities to solve for the unknowns, $P(Y=1)$ and $P(Y=2)$, which will provide the complete probability distribution for $Y$.

@brave ruin Has your question been resolved?
Wait I think I'm following.
So y=0 is representing no impurities right? Is this because we start the observations at 0?
Exactly

Hi
plug the t values in the equation?
garlicbredfries
Confused
When you have the table, you are given a value for t (except for the last one, but we will do that one later)
Replace the t in the box with the number you are given
what goes in the blank so that P = 2^t?
Oh its P
2?
Yup
Then 2^0 is 0
ok
You sure?
corrected yourself just in time there
There you go
Now for the last one, you are goin in reverse
16 = 2^x
16^2?
Find some t so that 2^t=16
Would it be 4

Yup
Got it wrong tho
Idk what one was wrong
Hold up let me go to it again

the answer is step once since it's the "base case"
is that not what the inductive hypothesis is?
the answer is step once since it's the "base case"
doesn't make sense?
what does that have to do with the 4 equalities at the bottom?
i don’t think step one is the base case
wdym?
yeah my bad
inductive hypothesis is used for proving k+1?
I think yeah
so that would be step 1?
does it mean when we finish proving it or start?
The inductive hypothesis is when you assume that it is true for k
These boxes are making me go crazy
ohhhh makes sense ok I see clearly now
that would be step 2 since we go from sumnation of 2^j to 2^(k+1) -1?

so like a is less than 1
huh?
b is less than 1
why
because that would be the only values that make it greater than 0
make what greater than 0
the equation
yeah or less than 1
for a and b
what if a and b are both 10
f(1) = (1-10)(1-10) = (-9)^2 = 81
which is greater than 0
thats incorrect
oh
yes
correct
then at x = 4 its negative
so at some point, it hits 0
because it is continuous
does that make sense?
yes
so that tells you that one of the roots is between 1 and 4
apply the same logic to 4 and 7
you get two ranges for roots
right?
OHHH
u got it from here
so the roots are between 1 and 7?
its more specific than that
yeah
and you can determine the ranges of the roots
this is true
but its not just that
theres more u can say
look ^
can you do the same process for the other root?
using 4 and 7 instead of 1 and 4
oh so one root is between 1 and 4
and the other is between 4 and 7
so for example one is 3
yes
and the other is 6?
in the beggining of solving this question
i tried solving for the possible values of a and b
would that work too?
you could do that but it might be more trial and error
yeah i dont wanna do that
yeah thatd be annoying
ofc

Hi, I was wondering how this example got rid of the R at the end and where the 1/2 came from?

Help!
how would I write an equation for the area of the shape shown in figure 1-right as a function of x
I was helped before in here from toby (super helpful) but I dont think I accounted for everything correctly
Here is what I had
If I break down the shape into 3 rectanges I get 1x on left side
the area? You would have to break it up into rectangles
yep you got th right idea 🙂
and for the far right side its 1x aswell
that or you can subtract out the middle square as well
but 3 rectangles is probably easier
yep exactly
and for the middle i got a = x - 2 * x/4
how would you go about that?
let's do the first way first 🙂
so left rectangle and right rectangle are both (1)(x) = x. So far the area is 2x since we'd add those together
yes correct 👍
then we do (x-2)(x/4) = x^2/4 - 2x/4 = (x^2 - 2)/4
then you just add that
and that's the area
Im a little confused give me a second to write this down
ohh okay that makes sense since a = lw
I was just confused about this x right here
so let's consider that real quick as well! Suppose we did it the alternative way
if we didn't have that missing piece
the area would b x * x = x^2, right?
yes correct
okay cool
so what's the area of the gap?
we have a base of (x - 2)
whats the height?
x/4?
@thin vale
so when I do foil I got $x^2 - x^2/4 - 2x + 2/4x$
austinn
not sure if thats correct
all is good except for the last part. It's 2x/4 not 2/4x
oh okay yea i was wondering where to put the x
okay so then you get:
$x^2 - \frac{x^2}{4} - 2x + \frac{2x}{4}$
mellowdramallama
so then we can subtract that from x^2
so we get: $x^2 - (x^2 - \frac{x^2}{4} - 2x + \frac{2x}{4}) \\= x^2 - x^2 + \frac{x^2}{4} + 2x - \frac{2x}{4} \\ = \frac{x^2}{4} + 2x - \frac{2x}{4}$
mellowdramallama
now just simplify the fraction
then it would be -1x/2 simplified
wait no lol
just the fraction
$\frac{x^2}{4} + \frac{8x}{4} - \frac{2x}{4} = \frac{x^2 + 6x}{4}$
mellowdramallama
oh oh i see i firgot to do +2x
yep!
could you simplify that even more
so you see, same answer. Isn't math magical?!?
not really
you could factor out an x but it's not necessary
that was the anwser you got for the shape?
yep!
bc previously i got a different anser so i mightve did somethin wrong
i got this
$x + x + (x-2)\left(\frac{x}{4}\right)$
$\\ 2x + \frac{x^2}{4} - \frac{2x}{4}$
$\\ \frac{8x}{4} + \frac{x^2}{4} - \frac{2x}{4}$
$\\ \frac{8x + x^2 - 2x}{4}$
$\\ \frac{x^2 + 6x}{4}$
mellowdramallama
oh i see the difference i didnt simpligy it fully through
compared to what you had
would it be okay to ask you another question if you have time?

Can someone tell me what the above-line mean? Like A, i = 1, n <-- There's a line above the number, comma and letter, in other word, there's a line above everything to the right of "="
The context is find all M that satisfy: a₁MA₁^2 + a₂MA₂^2 + a₃MA₃^2 + ... = k (With Aᵢ, i = "1, n" <--line above this; k is a constant;
i ∈ {1; 2; 3; ....})
The line at the bottom of the picture.
@foggy thunder
<@&286206848099549185>
Well this is grade 10 math, just vector
uhh expand that take M common multiply both side by the thing left in the parenthesis
Then u have M = k/ ....
wtf is pure math
real analysis, complex analysis, higher levels of high school math… blah blah blah
Can you elucidate? like what is M common and please continue your second sentence
like after u expand the summation u get M(a₁A₁^2 + a₂A₂^2 + a₃A₃^2 + ...) = k
oh right now divide not multiply
so u will get M = k/ (a₁A₁^2 + a₂A₂^2 + a₃A₃^2 + ...)
I'm afraid you got it wrong here. MAᵢ is a line, not M*Aᵢ
so MAi is a line
yes
then idunno mahn
Also, my question is more about what is line above "1, n" mean, not how to solve the question because the book already write it.
not sure but i think that means average?
I don't think so, i ∈ {1; 2; 3; ....}
Here's the context (question in pinned) to spare new Helpers from reading the whole chat.

I have to choose one of the follow:
A) Quantity A is bigger
B) Quantity B is bigger
C) Quantities are equal in value
D) Can't be determined from given data
Obviously quantity A is : the length of arc ABC and quantity B is the other one from the pic
I think that the answer should be D.
But why?
Sorry i can't geometry
So i'd like to know the concepts required for other questions like this as well
Firstly do you understand that Length of Arc AD = Length of Arc BC ?
indeed i do
chord AD could rock back and forth along the circle
without changing the problem data
could you elaborate how if possible? I guess it might be hard to actually illustrate
is that cuz i could draw the same chord towards the sides maybe
or perhaps just move it up or something
Yes.
So, there's no data to actually determine which is longer. With given information any of them can be longer than other.
i was thinking something along this lines, in this case both are the same right
would the counterexample of this mean that the intersection of BD and CA is not the center?
was also curious about the chord rocking back and forth along the circle explanation
Umm... Which both are same ?
arc ABC and arc ADC
they're both half the circles in my example
are they not?
Unless, it's given - you can't assume that.
Learn to never assume stuff in geometry. Sometimes, It might seem like some angle is 90° but unless it's given, never assume that no matter how tempting it seems.
hmm but what am i assuming though?
i connect AC through the center of the circle
That arc ABC and arc ADC are equal.
i connect BD through the center of the circle
How do you know they'll pass through the center the circle ?
You can sure connect them through center but there's no guarantee that they'll form a line i.e. Points A, center, C are collinear.
if AD // BC, i don't see why this wouldn't hold tbh
I think they'd be equal
i guess the catch is then just that AD not // BC
looked straight to me at first glance lol
What does this symbol "//" mean ?
Parallel ?
yeah
I think if they are parallel, then they should pass through the center although i can't really prove it.
Let me think a bit more.
Okay yes. I proved that.
Anyway, @urban obsidian So are you done with the problem ?
yeah that's what i meant
i guess so, thanks

Can someone help me with this question
<@&286206848099549185>
Please only use the <@&286206848099549185> ping once if your question has not been answered for 15 minutes. Please do not ping or DM individual users about your question.
since it's a mutliple choice questions, you may consider to do it in reverse
guess you can apply the exponent to num and denom and try to find a trig simplification
i tried doing that bt it didnt work
which?
this
yeah i could do it bt i m preparing for a test so it wouldnt really help me doing that
to be honest, some multiple choice questions set it this way so that you cannot have enough time to "use the right way" to tackle it
we would have to use tricks like differentiate the choices to get the answer
actually i have tried every way i could , i have tried multiplying num and denominator with sec^2 didnt work
i also tried converting sin and cos into tan x/2 it also didnt work
have you tried multiplying it by tanx/tanx
yuppp
didnt work
in our draft we cant write:
what about (sec^2)/(sec^2)
!
that may give you something to work with in the denominator
hold on lemme right this down
okayyy
\begin{align*}&\dv{(x\sin x+ \cos x)^{-1}}{x}\=&\frac{\sin x+ x\cos x-\sin x}{(x\sin x+\cos x)^2}\=&\frac{x\cos x}{(x\sin x+\cos x)^2}\end{align*}
righttttttt
biscuityxd
?
this is the draft
now we can consider
what happened when
$\dv{\frac{x\sec x}{x\sin x + \cos x}}{x}$
biscuityxd
and all other versions of the choices
easily by using product rule (instead of quotient rule)
in the exams,unless you are really lucky, you can't really find the proper u-sub for the integration
ohokayyokaayy i get what u mean i will try doing it this way
true
so, using differentiation would be the fastest way

bro what is this saying
let f be a function of x and (or x, y and z)
there's actually two statements in there
either for 2 variables
resp is like or?
or for 3 variables
yeah
if you replace all the resp's you get the statement for 3 variables
the maximum rate of change of f at a point is the magnitude of the gradient and this occurs along the gradient? tf
yes
ok
I hope they're proving that just after
yeah
should help reading the proof then
nah I am bad at that
I have a hard time reaidng profos
reading proofs
i just breeze through it because i am just special
ok i understand the proof alittle
ok actually i udnerstand now
i jsut had to readd it
lol
bro why is this true
what does it look like
how can oyu be orthognal with a point

very last step?
@vast shale Has your question been resolved?
what is t_stop
is it q/64000 by chance?
oh i didn’t see the last picture
then yeah all they did was plug in q/64000
@vast shale
it’s here
the distance that the car has to stop in
so t_stop is the time required to stop
