i realised after i said it , sorry

sand lodge
#

dw

crystal drum
#

is there any other way I could approach this?

sand lodge
#

ok

#

so u see the inscribed circle

crystal drum
#

yes

sand lodge
#

maybe we can try finding the non shaded part

#

square - 4 corners + quartercircle = 2 non shaded part

#

check me on that

#

I'm not too sure

crystal drum
#

isn't that harder

#

oh alr

sand lodge
#

na not work

#

I lie

#

😦

crystal drum
#

right

#

you can't subtract the quarter circle after cutting all the 4 corners

gray crescent
sand lodge
#

wow wdf

#

@crystal drum what topic was this in lmao

vast shale
#

i also have another idea

#

lets say we name the small pieces left x1 and x2 what's left from the corner. then the total area of the square would be shaded+corner +2x2 + notshaded+2x1+corner

#

notshaded = circle - shaded , and that removes shaded from the equation

#

lol i was wrong

sand lodge
#

squre - qcircle = corner + x + 2z
circle - qcircle = x - (corner + 2(corner-z)) = x - 3corner + 2z
qcircle + x = 2z + corner

#

where z is the small piece

#

idk these are the only equation I could come up with but It is likely one of these is just a rearrangement of the other leading to infinitey many solutions

#

how come the derivative is taken differently in these cases?

main totem
#

heres the original problem im working with for the 1st picture btw

paper depot
#

in what cases?

#

x^(constant) vs. (constant)^x?

main totem
paper depot
#

i mean these are different functions arent they lmao

main totem
#

but now I understand since you've put it that way

#

but n is an unknown

#

so I got confused

paper depot

n is constant

Do you know a decent online tool for solid geometry?
I can't find any on my own =(

Earlier I asked this question:
Given all of the roots of a quadratic equation (in its basic form) and the value of Δ , is it possible to find at least one set of values for a, b, c , for which the equation is true?
I was instructed to use Vieta's formulas, but I don't know how they could fit into the solution.

hushed pewter
#

Do you even need Δ if you already have the roots?

paper depot
#

yeah sounds like redundant info

#

that'll get you your coefficients.

why his fav number then?

#

or is it not defined

it can be anything

how can it be anything if its already given :(

#

x is x

#

you are trying to reconstruct a quadratic equation from its roots.

honest ridge
paper depot
#

do you have concrete numbers for r, s and D

#

i just realized that the discriminant is in fact not redundant like i claimed earlier

honest ridge
paper depot
#

it means discriminant, whichever way you like best to denote it.

#

the key idea is: the equation a(x-r)(x-s) = 0 has solutions x=r and x=s.

#

therefore it is the equation you're looking for, except it is in the wrong form.

honest ridge
paper depot
#

??? you literally have a product here that you can (& should) distribute

#

(x-r)(x-s) = x^2 - rx - sx + rs

#

= x^2 - (r+s)x + rs

honest ridge
# paper depot = x^2 - (r+s)x + rs

That's quite logical, but how can I get b and c from this? (if my questions seem dumb, that's because I learned about this topic just from casual research)

paper depot
#

i have to go to sleep now sorry

last harbor
#

simple question: starting statistics, wanna know what the actual difference of the average and mean is. am i overthinking it? i know how to calc both but in this case apparently it's different i've been told.

urban edge
#

There are different types of mean but the one you are most familiar with is called the arithmetic mean

#

This is the one where you sum up all terms and then divide by the number of terms

#

This is also usually considered the average

#

However average also has different meanings

#

Sometimes, the median is considered the average or the mode is, but those tend to not be used as often

#

there are different types of means, idk if you me to get into them

last harbor
#

however i can't tell if a sample mean and average by definition are the same

chrome raptor
#

You're asking about the difference between the sample mean and the population mean

#

Aren't you?

#

$$\overline{X}\neq \mu$$

twin meteorBOT
#

Categorist

last harbor
#

no, not really, i haven't gotten into population mean yet, but i know a sample mean is a portion of the population one

#

but that may be helpful. let me phrase it this way

#

if a teacher receives 5 quiz scores going 100,100,100,0,0, the mean score is 60; i agreed with this

#

if the same quiz is given to a second class of 5 and the scores go 60,60,58,62,60, wouldn't the mean score still be 60?

urban edge
#

Yes

last harbor
#

ok, in that case then to calc the mean you don't just divide by the sample size but by the whole population one

#

or both are just 60 so i can't say that

#

hold on

urban edge
#

(100+100+100+0+0)/5=60

#

And also (60+60+58+62+60)/5=60

#

They both have an arithmetic mean of 60

last harbor
#

ok now i see where i'm getting confused

urban edge
#

In this case, your sample means are the two classes separately, the population mean would be the whole school

last harbor
#

ok, let me just confirm this then;

  1. the sample mean would be the same as the average (or arithmetic mean, if they would be synonyms?)

  2. to calculate said mean, you just add up all terms and divide by sample size (so just arithmetic mean again)

chrome raptor
#

These are two means which are coincidentally equal

urban edge
#

Arithmetic mean is the act of taking the sum of the numbers you are working with and dividing by the number of numbers you are working with

For example, the arithmetic mean of the four numbers 5, 10, 16, and 1 is
(5+10+16+1)/4=32/4=8

#

Yes, sample mean and population mean are both arithmetic means

#

Sample mean refers to a subset of the population you are working with

last harbor
#

ah so the sample mean is just a fancy term for average of a sample data set

urban edge
#

For example, taking the average height of people in china is a sample mean

last harbor
#

the whole world would be population

urban edge
#

Taking the average height of every person in the world is a population

#

Exactly

chrome raptor
last harbor
#

Statisticians love vocabulary hahaha

#

Thanks for the help though, I finally understand why it's worded like that in my homework

#

I don't understand how they've used the binomial expression here?

jolly epoch
#

you can do
1 - Pr(10) - Pr(11)

#

because there’s 2 outcomes

#

either yes (76%) or no (24%)

#

and the trials are independent of one another

#

X~Bi(11, 76)

#

so we can say this is binomially distributed

valid carbon
#

sooo my use here is incorrect?

jolly epoch
#

this is the formul

#

what you have done only accounts for P(X=10)

#

you need to consider P(X=11)

#

so you can do: 1 - Pr(X=10) - Pr(X=11)

#

because Pr(X<10) = 1 - Pr(X>=10)

untold surge
#

N(6)/2 where

#

N(m) means number of rearrangements of 1,2,…,m having no fix point

#

Which can be calculated by

#

Inclusion-exclusion principle

sick owl
untold surge
twin meteorBOT
#

Cogwheels of the mind

untold surge
#

I don’t know what D_6 is

sick owl
#

6!(1-1/1! + 1/2! - 1/3!....1/6!)

#

But we use that when we don't want anyone on its original place right?

#

Here there are two 'A's

untold surge
#

This is exactly what I sent you

#

Your D_6 is my N(6)

sick owl
#

Yes yes

#

But that's wrong

untold surge
#

Oh I know what the issue is wait a second

#

First viewing two A as A1 and A2, you have D_6 many

#

Back to two A, there are forbidden cases counted

#

Like A_2 under A_1

sick owl
#

Yes excatly

untold surge
#

So minus (5!+5!-4!)

#

Is the answer

#

The thing in the parentheses is

#

N(A_2 under A_1)+N(A_1 under A_2)-N(A_2 under A_1 also A_1 under A_2)

sick owl
#

So fixing any one?

untold surge
#

D_6-5!-5!+4!

#

Yeah 5!+5!-4! Is how many cases where at least one A is put under A

sick owl
#

265-240+24=49

untold surge
#

So D_6 minus it

sick owl
#

Answer is given 84

sick owl
#

Are we subtracting case where we keep one A on its own place?

#

Or one A always on ANOTHER A ?

untold surge
#

Shit i miscalculated

#

Should be

#

I forgot when A_2 is under A_1, other elements still have no fix point

#

Wait a min

sick owl
#

Ye

untold surge
#

Hey can you do me a favor

#

Can you calculate D_5 and D_4 for me

#

I am checking my answer

sick owl
#

D5=44
D4=9

#

(Our teacher had us mug up till D6)

untold surge
#

Correct now

sick owl
#

:D

untold surge
#

(D_6-D_4)/2 -D_5

#

Okay so it should be

#

So for now when we say an arrangement we mean an arrangements of A_1,A_2, BHRT having no fix points

#

So D_6 many arrangements

#

What we are looking for is

#

N(arrangements such that A_2 is not under A_1, and A_1 is not under A_2)/2

#

=(N(arrangements)-N(A_1 under A_2 or A_2 under A_1))/2

sick owl
#

Alr

untold surge
#

Looks too long,

sick owl
#

Wait

untold surge
#

Say p: A_1 under A_2
q: A_2 under A_1

sick owl
#

Shouldnt we do N(arr) - n(a1 a2) - n(a2 a1)

#

Like multiply by 2?

untold surge
#

No. What we are looking for is (N(not p and not q))/2

sick owl
#

Why /2?

untold surge
#

Because given an arrangement, having no A_2 under A_1, no A_1 under A_2, we need to view A_1 and A_2 as same A again

sick owl
#

Right right my bad

sick owl
untold surge
#

What we are looking for, is N(not p and not q)/2

#

=(D_6-N(p or q))/2

sick owl
#

yes

untold surge
#

=(D_6-N(p and q)-N(p and not q)-N(q and not p))/2

sick owl
#

Got it

untold surge
#

Now N(p and q)=N(A_2 under A_1 and A_1 under A_2)=D_4

#

N(p and not q)=N(q and not p)=number of cases where exactly one A is under A, other five elements having no fix point=D_5

#

So together

#

(D_6-D_4-2D_5)/2

sick owl
#

Understood 👍

untold surge
#

👍

sick owl
#

Thanks a lot mate!

untold surge
#

$3x^2-6x-1

#

$3x^2-6x-1$

twin meteorBOT
#

aysob_ay212

jolly epoch
#

then you wanna find out the pair of numbers which multiply to ac and add to b

#

in this case what mulitplies to -3 and adds to -6

#

unfortunately there is no nice number so we will resort to the quadratic formula

#

nope

#

can you apply this to the quadratic formula?

hard atlas
#

remember that for pq the coefficient of x^2 has to be 1

jolly epoch
#

you know how your general form of a quadratic is:

$ax^2 + bx + c$

twin meteorBOT
#

aysob_ay212

jolly epoch
#

you want to find what multiplies to ac

#

and adds to b

#

the coefficients

#

then you could factorise by grouping

hard atlas
#

(this is vieta and is basically just educated guessing)

jolly epoch
#

a = 3, b = -6, c = -1

#

(half of the time it won't lead anywhere)

didn't know it was called vieta, interesting

#

anyways, we will use the quadratic formula (we should only use this method as a last resort)

#

$(-b +- \sqrt(b^2 - 4ac))/2a$

#

bruh

hard atlas
#

$\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

twin meteorBOT
#

Denascite

jolly epoch
#

thank u

hard atlas
#

or pq but again remember that for pq the coefficient of x^2 needs to be 1

jolly epoch
#

$\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(3)(-1)}}{2(3)}$

twin meteorBOT
#

aysob_ay212

jolly epoch
#

which part

hard atlas
#

$-\frac p 2 \pm \sqrt{\left(-\frac p 2\right)^2-q}$

jolly epoch
twin meteorBOT
#

Denascite

hard atlas
#

then use it

#

it doesnt matter whether you use abc or pq

jolly epoch
#

maybe denascite can help you with this because i don't understand their method

#

and you do

hard atlas
#

pq is for x^2+px+q=0

#

and?

#

then p=something negative

#

but first we need to divide by 3

#

so x^2-2x-1/3=0

#

now p=-2

#

q=-1/3

#

and now plug in

jolly epoch
#

the imaginary second lol

twin meteorBOT
hard atlas
#

yes

#

although lets get used to writing a closed form

#

instead of just throwing it into a calculator

#

the minus before the 1 should be gone

#

(-1)^2 is 1

#

wait something is wrong here

#

1 +- sqrt(4/3)

#

or 1+-2/sqrt3

#

you're welcome

so I have a question hat was on my national examination... I really don't know how to approach it

vast shale
#

Find the Least common multiple LCM

#

For 72 and 80

#

Then divide by 80

#

That would be the number of laps Tanui ran before meeting Kipkoech at the starting line

past orchid
#

so 9?

#

because the lcm is 720

#

so is 9 the final answer?

quick estuary
#

i just know that as identity

#

this one is simpler

#

what u can do here

#

is take sum of squares till 144

#

then subtract 2 times sum of squares of even numbers

#

to find that just take 4 common from each term

#

so for even terms

#

2^2+4^2+6^2.....

#

u can rewrite as

#

4(1^2+2^2+3^2...)

#

and apply formula again

kind swift
quick estuary
#

it does

#

its due to practice and observation tbh

#

because you have to use whats given

#

and its not directly applicable here

#

so u have to manipulate

how do you get from t^4 = -2 to t = -1

stable carbon
#

Define:

Use induction to show that:

vocal sleetBOT
stable carbon
#

First(1) we prove n=1 that s_1=1/2 = 1 - 1/2

#

Then we assume that its true for any k wich means that s_k = 1- 1/2^k

#

But im really wondering about this:

#

Which is included in the solution, how do they arrive at this? And how do i solve the question?

round plover
#

if s_n is the sum of 1/2^i for i = 1 to n

#

then s_(n+1) is the sum of 1/2^i for i = 1 to n+1, which is just the previous sum with an extra term

stable carbon
#

yes

round plover
#

\begin{align*}
s_n&=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\cdots+\frac{1}{2^n}\
s_{n+1}&=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\cdots+\frac{1}{2^n}+\frac{1}{2^{n+1}}\
s_{n+1}&=\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\cdots+\frac{1}{2^n}\right)+\frac{1}{2^{n+1}}\
s_{n+1}&=s_n+\frac{1}{2^{n+1}}
\end{align*}

twin meteorBOT
#

Desync

stable carbon
#

Ok, that makes sense I supose

round plover
#

replace s_n with the induction hypothesis

#

and try rearrange the expression into 1-(1/2^{n+1})

stable carbon
#

ok, but why does s_n = 1 - 1/2^n dissapear

round plover
#

what do you mean

stable carbon
#

Yeah idk, the question was stupid

#

If we continue with the calculations

#

how do we arrive at s_n = 1 - 1/2^n

round plover
#

you showed it holds for the base case n=1

stable carbon
#

yes

round plover
#

you assume it holds for arbitrary n in the second part

#

that's how induction works

#

we want to show s_{n+1} = 1 - 1/(2^{n+1})

round plover
round plover
stable carbon
#

ok, so we replace s_n before our fraction on the right side because s_n is equal to 1 - 1/2^n which is given to us in the task

twin meteorBOT
stable carbon
#

right @round plover ?

round plover
#

apart from the broken exponent yes

stable carbon
#

yes

#

Ok so we can use what we are trying to prove while doing our "calculations"?

round plover
#

you've already used it

stable carbon
#

Yeah, im asking in general

round plover
#

you replaced s_n by 1 - 1/(2^n)

stable carbon
#

Yeah

round plover
#

yes

stable carbon
#

ok, good

#

I will do some work on my own, thank you so much

#

actually @round plover, sorry to bother you but i have a few questions about some basic calculation

round plover
#

okay

stable carbon
#

How do we go from 2^k to 2^k+1

#

How does that fraction get solved

round plover
#

multiply top and bottom by 2

stable carbon
#

2k*2 = 2k+1???

round plover
#

\begin{align*}
\frac{1}{2^k}&=\frac{1}{2^k}\times\frac{2}{2}\
&=\frac{2}{2^k\times2}\
&=\frac{2}{2^{k+1}}
\end{align*}

twin meteorBOT
#

Desync

round plover
#

and yes, think about what an exponent means

#

2^k is 2 * 2 * ... * 2 k times

#

so if you multiply it by 2 again, it's k+1 many 2s being multiplied

#

so it's 2^(k+1)

stable carbon
#

aahhhhh

#

got it

#

so then we have 1-k^+1+1/2^k+1 ?

round plover
#

can you write that with more brackets

stable carbon
#

yes

round plover
#

I don't know what that expression is exactly

stable carbon
#

$$ 1-frac{2}{2^{k+1}} + 2^(k+1) $$

twin meteorBOT
stable carbon
#

ummm

#

oh, forgot the backslash

round plover
#

you appear to have a 2^{k+1} there

#

on its own

stable carbon
#

Yeah, how does it get removed

round plover
#

we only ever use it in the denominator of a fraction

stable carbon
#

I still have 2 / 2(k+1)

round plover
#

\begin{align*}
s_{n+1}&=s_n+\frac{1}{2^{n+1}}\
&=\left(1-\frac{1}{2^{n}}\right)+\frac{1}{2^{n+1}}\
\end{align*}

twin meteorBOT
#

Desync

round plover
#

do you follow this

stable carbon
#

im wondering about how we go from

#

$\frac{2}{2^{k+1}}$

twin meteorBOT
stable carbon
#

i got it

#

nvm

compact zealot
#

Having issues figuring out how I should go about plotting and creating the graph here

compact zealot
#

What I attempted doing was

#

$y\le1+4x \ y\le\frac{7-x}{2}$

twin meteorBOT
#

Huntifer

round plover
#

you've dropped a minus on the left

compact zealot
#

for the first equation?

#

I multiplied the whole thing by -1 to get rid of the -y

round plover
#

then you should have -1 on the right

compact zealot
#

It was 1-4x

#

Oh I'm dumb

#

You mean -1+4x

round plover
#

yes

#

and also, when multiplying by a negative number

#

the inequality flips

compact zealot
#

Oh

#

That would be why...

round plover
#

your second equation looks good

compact zealot
#

Would it be more effective to not multiply by negative one then and leave y as a negative

#

?

#

Or do you have to

#

But anyways so it should actually be

#

$y\ge-1+4x$

twin meteorBOT
#

Huntifer

round plover
#

to just find the boundary lines for the required region

#

then figure out which way the inequality should have pointed (by sampling points if it's not clear from inspection)

compact zealot
#

Yeah

#

Replace inequalities with equalities? Wdym by this

round plover
#

just look at 4x - y = 1

#

rearrange that easily to 4x - 1 = y

#

then figure out if any of the manipulations would have flipped anything afterwards

#

or sample points; for instance, plugging in (0,0) into the original inequality gives 4*0 - 0 <= 1 which is satisfied

#

so the origin is on the required side of the line y= 4x - 1

compact zealot
#

Yeah

#

That makes sense

#

And you can see 4x means that its a positive slope if you're thinking of it as y=mx+b

#

Then plugging (0,0) or a point in the accepted region lets you test it

#

I was just forgetting the sign flip thing

round plover
#

yeah, you can always check it after and just use =s during the rearranging

How do I find the question for area of rectangle

mild flower
#

if you put the vertical lines at x = a and x = -a

#

what is the area of the rectangle?

mossy latch
#

?

mossy latch
mild flower
#

anything

#

try it with x = 1 first

#

but get a formula for the area for arbitrary values of a

mossy latch
mild flower
#

ok try it with x = 1 first

#

see the vertical blue lines? those are at x = 1 and x = -1

#

what's the area of the rectangle?

mossy latch
#

2

#

Is the base?

mossy latch
mild flower
#

2 is the base yes

#

what is the height?

mossy latch
#

Since it’s a rectangle

#

It cannot be 2 as well so ooooo

mossy latch
mild flower
#

look at your diagram

#

the graph

#

how high does the rectangle go? in words

mossy latch
#

9?

mossy latch
mild flower
#

where did you get 9

mossy latch
#

From the formula of the parbola

mild flower
#

how high is the point in red?
how high is the point in blue?

mossy latch
#

As a rough estimate

mild flower
#

i'm not looking for a rough estimate here

#

how would you even make a rough estimate?? the y axis isn't labeled

mossy latch
#

I thought a = 1 = xcould be anything

mild flower
#

okay, that was partially my fault; we're not using a for right now. we're trying to evaluate one specific rectangle

#

the blue point and the red point are both on the parabola

mossy latch
#

Am I just overthinking this and it’s easy

#

Cause forming the equation is the only hard part of optimisation

mild flower
#

often that is the hardest part yes

mossy latch
#

Do u just substitute 1 and 0 as x to find y which is the height

mild flower
#

the red dot doesn't even really matter for us, it's the blue dot that matters

#

so yes we can put x=1 into the eqn to find the height which is y

mossy latch
#

I got 8,75

mild flower
#

yes great

#

so what about arbitrary x? what's the formula for the area of the rectangle for any x, not specifically 1?

mossy latch
#

Xy

mild flower
#

well, 2xy

#

because it goes on both sides

#

can you put that just in terms of x?

what do you think so far

should I use base case 1 or 0?

Just use x^mdx=(1/(m+1))d(x^(m+1)) to obtain a recursive relation I(m,n)=(1/(m+1))((In(x)^n)x^(m+1)-nI(m,n-1))

#

Until n reduces to 0

guys but is there a easier way of doing this? im finding hard to understand

forest stump
#

I have a question is ax = b (mod n) equal to x = b (mod n).
Because I saw from a different source that 11m + 4 = 3 (mod 5) => 11m = -1 (mod 5) => m = -1 (mod 5).

chilly pawn
#

I dont understand the 1/m+1 from where did it came btw

#

this way of you differentiating by dx^m+1 is fabulous but Idont understand where the 1/m+1 came from btw

#

<@&286206848099549185>

bleak sapphire
#

It's just a constant from when you differentiate x^m+1

chilly pawn
#

why and how ;w;

chilly pawn
# untold surge

is this enough to prove that is necessary to use integration by parts n times? I thought about using induction

untold surge
#

No I only used integration by parts 1 time

#

fdg=fg-gdf

#

f=In(x)^n, g=x^(m+1)/(m+1)

bleak sapphire
#

The question itself is phrased strangely imo

chilly pawn
#

im still analyzing cogwheels picture, one sec

bleak sapphire
#

Like how would you prove that IBP n times is necessary

chilly pawn
#

using a recurrence relation

#

its a great point what cogwheels pointed out

bleak sapphire
#

It probably just means 'do it/show it can be done' that way

chilly pawn
#

I still dont understand xd

#

is dx^m+1 possible, I am used to dx

young blaze
# untold surge Just use x^mdx=(1/(m+1))d(x^(m+1)) to obtain a recursive relation I(m,n)=(1/(m+1...

If I were to elaborate on Cogwheels of the mind's hint:

Let (u = (\ln x)^n) and (dv = x^m dx). Then (du = n (\ln x)^{n-1} \frac{1}{x} dx) and (v = \frac{1}{m+1} x^{m+1}).

The integral becomes

[\frac{1}{m+1} x^{m+1} (\ln x)^n - \frac{n}{m+1} \int x^m (\ln x)^{n-1} dx.]

Observe that the integral term (\int x^m (\ln x)^{n-1} dx) appears on the right-hand side. This new integral has the same form as the original integral (\int x^m (\ln x)^n dx), but the exponent (n) has been reduced by 1 to (n-1).

If (n = 0), the integral can be solved immediately without the need for integration by parts. Otherwise, applying the same logic recursively, it can be seen that the integral will yield a series of new integrals in which the exponent (n) decreases by 1 at each step. This will continue until (n) is reduced to 0, at which point the integral can be solved directly. Therefore, it is necessary to use integration by parts (n) times to solve the integral (\int x^m (\ln x)^n dx).

is this enough to prove that we need to integrate n times? <@&286206848099549185>

#

y bso confusing is proving things when I lack too much theory, Im doing my best here

young blaze
# chilly pawn tysm adzetto for the clarification, but this only works when n and m are positiv...

actually integral briefly can be expressed as (\log ^{n+1}(x) ((-m-1) \log (x))^{-n-1} (-\Gamma (n+1,(-m) -1) \log (x)))) (says wolfram), but for example, "(15/6) times need to apply integral by parts", it seems meaningless to me. So for example what does (\pi) times mean? Maybe it's the integer part of the real part of (n), but it's not necessary. Let it simply be (n\in \mathbb{Z}_{>0}).

The minimum distance of the points on the function from the coordinate origin???
f(x)=√4x+7

sand lodge
#

try graphing it if you can't see it immediatelt

#

you should find out very quickly

paper depot
#

graphing won't really help much, will it

sand lodge
#

won't it

#

I feel like it'll be very obviois

#

I mean idk if u can't see it immediately

paper depot
#

@unborn prism you mean $f(x) = \sqrt{4x + 7}$, right?

twin meteorBOT
sand lodge
#

oh is that what is meant

#

if so then yes I am incorrect lol

paper depot
#

and you want to find the distance from the origin to the closest point on this graph, yes?

unborn prism
#

yes

untold surge
#

Quadratic

unborn prism
#

d= sqrt[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2]

#

How should I do it when y^2 is available?

#

The closest distance between a point and a line is: |ax+by+c| / sqrt[a^2+b^2]

#

I tried with these formulas....

civic otter
civic otter
#

What are your two points?

#

One is the origin, (0, 0) right?

unborn prism
#

Yes

#

How can I find the closest point of the function?

civic otter
#

Well, before that we have to write the distance formula

#

Call a generic point P belonging to that curve f(x)

#

Let's say its x-coordinate is t for example

#

Then, what's the value of its y-coordinate?

unborn prism
#

And y = sqrt[4t+7]

civic otter
#

Awesome

#

So now you can write the distance between P and the origin

unborn prism
#

But how can I make sure that the point is the closest one?

civic otter
#

Optimization should ring you a bell about derivatives

unborn prism
#

With min of the equation?

civic otter
#

Yes, we will have to calculate the minimum of the distance

#

Call the distance d(t)

unborn prism
#

I got sqrt[t^2+4t+7]: Delta<0

civic otter
#

Do you remember vertex formulas for parabolas? If not, don't worry

unborn prism
#

Is it y = a(x - h)2 + k??

civic otter
#

Not hat one

#

x_V = -b/(2a)

civic otter
unborn prism
#

Oh yeah

civic otter
#

Nice, I think we can use this instead of derivatives

#

So, as you wrote before, d(t) = sqrt[t² + 4t + 7], wasn't it?

unborn prism
#

-Delta/4a for the min?

civic otter
civic otter
civic otter
#

If I want to maximize something with a square root, isn't it the same as maximize it but without the square root?

#

This because the square root is increasing, hence a point of maximum of the inside will result in a point of maximum also with sqrt

civic otter
#

Ok perfect

#

We can therefore minimise the polynomial t² + 4t + 7

#

What is the value of t that makes it reach a minimum?

unborn prism
#

3

civic otter
civic otter
unborn prism
#

Shouldn't we calculate Ys?

#

minimum of function?

#

-Δ/4a

civic otter
civic otter
# unborn prism Shouldn't we calculate Ys?

In this case yes, I'll explain you in a while why, but usually for thus type of exercises no, because they ask us for the values of t (which allows you to find the coordinate of the point) and not the value of the distance

civic otter
unborn prism
unborn prism
civic otter
# unborn prism Oh why??

Because that's the formula (you can get it by plugging -b/(2a) onto the equation ax² + bx + c)

civic otter
#

But since this is a very particular case, I would prefer to explain it with derivatives if you agree

unborn prism
#

Oh you'r right!

civic otter
#

Btw are you sure you copied the exercise correctly from the book? Because I've never seen an exercise like this where the usual way goes wrong

civic otter
unborn prism
civic otter
#

I misread the exercise sorry

civic otter
#

Now you simply have to calculate the derivative of that function d(t)

#

You should get $$d'(t) = \frac{t + 2}{\sqrt{t^2 + 4t + 7}}$$

twin meteorBOT
#

Alberto Z.

unborn prism
civic otter
#

If not you should revise how to compute them

#

At least power rule and chain rule

unborn prism
civic otter
#

Oh my god, how are you supposed to do this exercise?

#

What has your teacher explained to you so far about derivatives?

unborn prism
civic otter
#

Ok, then I'm sorry to say that I don't know how to approach this exercise, if not in this way

#

But probably other helpers here know that

unborn prism
#

I just know parabola and 2nd degree function.

civic otter
#

Let's see if someone can help you better than me, fir sure there are a lot

unborn prism
#

OK thank you BTW 🙏

civic otter
#

You're welcome 🤗

chrome raptor
#

First

#

For finding minimum distance, usually one does not minimize the distance function d but, instead, the square of the distance function d²

#

Minimizing d² is easier than minimizing d, because you get rid of the square root

#

So you want to minimize d²(x,y)=x²+y²

#

the square of the distance from point (x,y) to the origin

#

But, y=√(4x+7)

#

So you can express d² as a single-variable function

#

d²(x)=x²+4x+7

#

It's a parabola, so it has a minimum at its vertex

#

You can calculate it serveral ways
