is p XOR q <-> p if and only if ~q?
it sounds right
for example, happy if and only if ~sad.
which means either you are happy XOR you are sad.

I dont understand how they got 2i - 2j - 2k
Do you know how cofactor expansion works?
is that what we use when we usually calculate the determinant
wait so they just solved the determinant?
i(-2 + 4) - j(-1 + 3) + k(4 - 6)
2i - 2j - 2k
oh shit
You got it 😂

wait, does the ordering of the eigenvectors/values matter for diagonisation?
what if I swapped the columns 1,2 and 1,3 in P?
can I do that?
while keeping D as it is
if I remember correctly the eigenvalues and the eigenvectors must match
@plain aurora Has your question been resolved?
yeah they need to match
if you swapped them in P you'd need to swap them in D

,rotate
In the answers sheet there were two cases, one if all of the angles were <90° and one where one angle was >90°
How do i know what to do?
Do all of the formulas work or how should i approach the problem?
These are the formulas i should use
(I solved the first case, but dont know how to solve if the triangle is obtuse)
<@&286206848099549185>
what are you trying to find in the question
if its an unknown side the sine formula can suffice

right. thanks for the clarification.
ok

Hi, how should I go about in solving this combination: 200 C 99?
There is a formula for nCr: n!/[r!(n-r)!]
Yeah I tried that one, but I reached a point where I have to get the product of all numbers between 200 to 102, after cancelling out (101!) from the denominator. Am I missing something?
inverse function*
You would need to use a calculator, unless you aren’t allowed to use one?
It is allowed, but I'm just wondering if there's a formula to it other than manually typing on the calc
is this channel free
Because the numbers are too big, it’s best just to use a calculator
No sorry
I see. Appreciate your help 🙂

If an abscissa or an ordinate is 0 what quadrant will it be at?
What will i write then?
points on axes aren't part of the quadrants
yeh, so they wrote the axis the point is on
She made me check the class's math work
(-8,0) is a point on the x-axis
(0,6) is a point on the y-axis
no idea what they wrote in red
She checked my other classmate's work she wrote correct to Quadrant 2 on (-8,0)
dispute it
Im too stupid to do that
is ordinate short for coordinate or sthng
"ordinate" is the y value, as opposed to abscissa
Ill just put a check on quadrant or axis idc anymore bruh
ah so they thought saying x and y is too easy and made funny names for them, got it
I write in blue mfs steal pens in my class
i suppose you could write negatve/postive x/y axis to be more specific
Thank you
You don't say (x,y) every time you want to say "coordinates", do you?
just say point
Not the same thing

I have a very serious question
Very seriously ask it, then
Scary.
Are you asking "how to draw anything in a graphing software"?
use equaations
to draw
in desmos
How to transcribe the iconic circles into number line that people would recognize it as Mickey
In number line, not the plane
I don't understand the question
What do you mean by "Mickey"
youre trying to turn a 2d mickey mouse image, into a 1d line and have that be recognisable?
could you show an example of what you'd want/expect with a heavily simplified example
for just two circles?
That is Mickey in a plane, which you would recognize immediately when you see it
okay
Is it possible to transcribe the characteristic of Mickey into number line
you can write equations for circles in graphing calculators such as desmos
The characteristic that people would recognize it as Mickey
if you 'squash' any 2d thing into 1d, it becomes a line, idk what you want to happen for it to be 'recognisable'
you can also color and shade regions for different graphs
That's not what's being asking, they want a 2d image as a 1d and still be recognizable in 1d
at most youd have a line of 3 distinct colours maybe but no one would think 'oh thats mickey mouse'
could you show an example of what you'd want/expect with a heavily simplified example
for just two circles?
That's 2d
or even just one circle
sorry
@waxen hawk Is this what you mean?https://www.desmos.com/calculator/mcezwauplg
bro,, from where u got those numbers
like what would you do on a line to make me think that its intended to be a circle
and not some other shape like square / rectangle or any other polygon or something else entirely
I didn't
still it's cool
I’m expected sth like the “barcode” of an item. I mean barcode is sort of a one dimensional stuff but the robotic sensor can recognize it immediately
I want a one dimensional Mickey which people can recognize
Good luck with that
It doesn’t necessarily have to be the barcode
colours/shading might help
based on distance from the x-axis
and you could use that to depict the top of mickeys head

Need help with 2.(D)
LordFelix
Okay let me try
use a calculator
Yeah it's true
$92^{100}+93^{100} < \binom{100}{0} 93^{100} + \binom{100}{1} 93^{99} + ... $ $\$
$92^{100} < 1.something × 93 × 93^{99} + ...$
Not allowed
$92^{100}+93^{100} < \binom{100}{0} 93^{100} + \binom{100}{1} 93^{99} + ...$
LordFelix
you forgot the dollar signs
Yeah
$92^{100}+93^{100} < 93^{100} + 100 \cdot 93^{99} + [99 more terms]$
if this last one is not obvious, you'd expand the 100 to (93+7)
hmm we can weite 100 as 93 times 1.something as well where the something is positive
so you'd have:
$92^{100} + 93^{100} < 93^{100} + 93^{100} + 7 \cdot 93^{99} + K$
LordFelix
where K is the other 99 terms of the expansion
Alright got it, thanks
you could even simplify the 93^100 in both sides and then repeat the algorithm if you want it of the form 0<something

hey, could someone help me figure out what I'm doing wrong?
I'm struggling to find f(u); even if I factor everything out & factor out du, i get (5x^2-2x+5) and i'm not sure if that gets me any closer
u^2 seems good, I don't know why it's marked as wrong (I assume)
But then your last answer is wrong
Why 70 and 45? and why 15 at the denominator?
oh because I plugged 5x-5 back into u^2, and solved for the antiderivative (5x-5)^3/15
u^2/5?
Oh yes, that should be u^2 / 5
!
My bad 😄
where does the /5 come from?
du/5 = dx
From the fact that du = 5dx
but when we divide the integral by 5 we don't get (5x-5) (the value of u)
❓
ohhhh
nvm, i got it, i think
is it because the function is (u)^2dx, so then we sub in du/5 for dx?
so then we get u^2 / 5
that makes sense
thanks so much!

I got to the diophantine equation of ABC = A + 2B + C
but i dont know how to solve diophantine equations with 3 variables
ABC - A - 2B - C = 0
A(BC-1) - 2/C * (BC - 1) - 2/C - C = 0
AC(BC-1) - 2 * (BC - 1) - 2 - C^2 = 0
(AC-2)(BC-1)=C^2+2
and then i got stuck
<@&286206848099549185>
if the number is 999, the A+2B+C is 36, so the numbers are small. so it is possible to try every number order satisfy these condition.
ig
its a counting problem so i doubt they would expect you to try every number
but only a little number needs to be try
but still its in the hundreds in quantity
no because numbers from 4-36 are possible to make
so the number needs to be a combination of the factors of that number
thers a lot to try
ABC is all less than 10
so it can be factorize by 2 3 5 7
2^a * 3^b * 5^c * 7*d, a<=5, b<=3 ,c<=2 ,d<=1

can someone help me on linear relationship question
its only year 9 math
i got f h j and l wrong
i was using the formula y2-y1/x2-x1 (sorry i accidentally wrote it wrong the first time)
whatt
its the formula for the gradient
the slope?
yeah
gradient of a line is a slope
what I rememberd as gradient
theyre equivalent here
is the first one always 1 right?
nosqldb
this has to be some british stuff
no, all components of the formula need to be grabbed from the points
they can all change based on the given information
(anyways, how did you use the formula?)
ill use question f as an example:
-2-4/1--2
You're using the y coordinate in the numerator
idk what is a numerator
(saw the edit: doesn't matter which way around you do it, as long as you're consistent!)
^^
numerator is the top part of the fraction
yes
i got f and h right, maybe i was just doing it wrong
Anyways, the gradient between the points $({\color{red} x_1} , {\color{green} y_1 })$ and $({\color{orange} x_2}, {\color{yellow} y_2})$ is as you've said
[
\frac{ {\color{green} y_1 } - {\color{yellow} y_2} }{ {\color{red} x_1} - {\color{orange} x_2} } = \frac{ {\color{yellow} y_2} - {\color{green} y_1 } }{ {\color{orange} x_2} - {\color{red} x_1} }
]

hello I have a question about a random polynomial I came across in my physics research
$P_n(x)=e^{-x}\sum_{m=0}^\infty\frac{x^m}{m!} (m+x)^n$
spaghetti
I don’t think it’s a hypergeometric function and I’m wondering if anyone has come across a polynomial like this, or if there’s any way to solve it
sorry if this is not allowed, I just joined
what kind of physics research if you don't mind me asking
also prob not the place for it
I think it's fine to post it here, but you probably won't get any good replies
@fast lark Has your question been resolved?
these are the n-th moments of an energy distribution of a simple harmonic oscillator with a recoil energy (the m labels the SHO quanta and the x is (square of) the momentum transfer, so the recoil energy gives you the +x in the (m+x)^n)
Have you tried using the binomial expansion?
I could ‘t see how to get rid of the m^k/m!
maybe there’s an easy trick I don’t know, sorry
I did find this…
$\frac{d}{dx}P_n(x)=nP_{n-1}(x)+\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{n}{k}P_k(x)$
spaghetti
but idk how that helps

why cant u just separate them
limx->1 (x/(x-1)) - limx->1 (1/lnx)
apply l'h to both
u get limx->1 (1/1) - limx->1 (x)
and u get
1-1
=0
but answer is 1/2 after u combine the fractions and apply l'h twice
if you would separate them then you would have something like infty-infty. which can equal pretty much anything

A Level Further Mechanics problem, don't really know where to start
I have a feeling this is not very difficult, I just need a push
hm do you know what work energy principle is?
Yes, but I covered it about a month ago and am not sure exactly how to apply it here
in short , change in kinetic energy = sum of work done by all forces
what are the forces acting on the ball as it goes up
isnt this a physics question
mostly yes
Yeah lol but it is one of the topic in A Level Further Maths
Mechanics is a mandatory part of the course
sheesh
this came in maths?
ah ic
i just learned about it
anyways , can you point out the forces acting on the object
They are not given
Are they?
kinda
well gravity is obvious
the balls slows down as it goes up, what makes it do so
right and one more
so the ball's weight, which is 2g
friction
how would you calculate wrk done by friction if the coefficient is not given
it is
its given
my eyess
its alr happens
In mechanics I mainly have trouble which pieces of info are relevant and which aren't
now try to see what else you need for aply work energy theorem
for example i dont see how tan a = 7/24 will come up later
it will be used to take the component of gravitation force acting on the ball as its in 2d motion
yeah we have initial ke
or sum of work done ig
and we know what we need as final
ye thats more apropriate
it is static
so what is its speed
0
nice!
now we got all required info for lhs and some from rhs
lets complete rhs
(lhs - left hand side , rhs - right hand side )
its on an inclined plane
^
so we must find the length of the plane
grvity always acts downwards
using tan a = 7/24 i assume
yeah we need to find the component of gravity which is responsible for slowing it down
take one component along the inclined plane , and one perpendicular to it , and try to break g into thoese
as the component along the inclined plane will slow the ball down , and the perpendicular will help with friction ( normal force)
vectors?
i mean you will need sin alpha and cos alpha
so .. just find cos and sin from it ig
okay so the normal force is 18.83 N
so the other component will be 2g-18.83
right?
so if alpha = 16.26 deg
ok
hm
i got (7*4)/5 as mgsin alpha
um can you recheck
what fraction you got for sin alpha
( tan alpha = perpendicular / base , sin alpha = perpendicular / hypoteneus , cos alpha = base / hypoteneus ) , we have tan alpha , so we have perpendicular and base , hence we can find hypoteneus using pythagorus theorem
if we know hypoteneus we can find sin and cos
also sometimes you can leave things in fraction ( it simplifies calculations things at the end , and you wont be required to use a calculator!)
yes it is allowed
should work , lemme check
and arctan(7/24) = 16.26 deg
so this should check out
i just didnt do decimal so got confused
yeah mb
i was like thats too small
brain stopped
right continueing
so whats work done by gravity
thats what we have to find
understood
you see whats happening now?
yes i think so
plug in the values
if w = fd, d = w/f
gravity is 5.6 g right?
yes
2mg sin alpha
work is just 5.6d then
*gravitational force on ball acting oposite to the motion of it
yes!
now find work done by fricion
as thats also a force acting on the ball
and it does contribute in the stopping of the ball
one more thing , will it be negative work done or positive
negative
yes cool continue
multiply by 1/8 ?
ye as friction force is mu N right?
yes
this will be negative or positive?
negative again?
2.3525 J is the work done by friction
lhs is know and there is one unknown in rhs
i didnt calculate stuff , but if you followd everything correctly yeah
how do you solve linear equations again?
also shoulnt the negative sign be on both work done , and d on both
just kidding lol
oh lmao-
yes true
work done is force * displancement not just force
for the most part
( do this question once more on your own to check yourself if you want )
I will ask my teacher on monday as well
I will
Thank you

when you place pasta, you won't place it perfectly
Like it can be 2.1m since its correct to the nearest 0.1m and nearest 0.1m will be 2.1m?
And 11.5 already has 0.5
So its already correct?
I know how to solve dis but im getting 18.2 and the answer is 18
And a student said im wrong bout this so i need clarification

so 11.5 correct to the nearest 0.5 means from 11.5-0.5 to 11.5+0.5
wait no
11.5-0.25 to 11.5+0.25
like
if you have 11.8
we consider 11.5 and 12
and choose the closest
which is 12
So how what do i do @proven garden
Is it 2.1m and 12 cm?
NO

Tried looking for counter examples
For a matrix to be invertible it has to have an inverse
And for it to have an inverse it has to be regular i.e. it has to have determinant ≠ 0
Considering det(AB)=det(A)det(B)
If ST is invertible, then det(ST) ≠ 0
Which means det(S)det(T) ≠ 0
Hence neither S nor T are singular
So they are invertible
!nosols. also, try showing this without determinants. just with injective and surjective
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.

Now all u have to do is differentiate that no?
Yeah
$\frac d{dt} [t \frac d{dt} \cos (t^2)] = \frac d{dt} [t \cdot -2t\sin(t^2)] = -2\frac d{dt} [t^2 \sin(t^2)]$

Yo
can you help
I can’t read the question lol
i explained it in message i only need γ) the top says let f,g:R->R such that this inequiality is true for all x
and i need to find the limits i have done α,β
pls read above
So just γ unsolved?
You can do it by the definition of derivative
The condition of g(x) in the problem is same thing with g'(-1)=5
And the answer of β is f'(-1)
But if you didn't notice that
You also can do this problem
Rewrite the numerator as
(f(x)-4)(g(x)+3)+4g(x)-3f(x)+24
pls explain how
Because we need to accord with the form of derivative
no derivative here man
I explained there
The limit is equal to the derivative at x=-1
The purpose of rewritting is to accord this form of limit
So we factorize and add/subtract terms
(f(x)-4)(g(x)+3)+4g(x)-3f(x)+24=(f(x)-4)(g(x)+3)+4[g(x)+3]-3[f(x)-4]
So we can decompose the problem to the sum of three limits
Numerator are (f(x)-4)(g(x)+3) 、g(x)+3 and f(x)-4 respectively
The coefficient before the limit is 1、4 and -3, respectively
And the denominators are all x+1
The last two limits are easier
It's equal to 4g'(-1)-3f'(-1)
And some techniques used
in the first one
We use the following property
If k(x)=m(x)n(x)
And lim m(x) and lim n(x) exist when x→a
Then lim k(x) exists when x→a and it is equal to [lim m(x)][lim n(x)] (when x→a)
So we can rewrite the limits again
When x→-1
lim [(f(x)-4)(g(x)+3)]/(x+1)
={lim [(f(x)-4)(g(x)+3)]/(x+1)²}[lim (x+1)]
=[lim (f(x)-4)/(x+1)][lim (g(x)+3)/(x+1)][lim (x+1)]
=f'(-1)g'(-1)(0)
=0
So the final answer is 4g'(-1)-3f'(-1)
2nd method:If you know the definition of derivative
Then you can directly write the answer is [f(x)g(x)]' at x=-1
i.e. f'(-1)g(-1)+f(-1)g'(-1) (using product rule)
@half oak Has your question been resolved?
I just use the derivative to simplify the expression of limit in the first method
If you didn't notice that the limit given by problem and in part β are equal to the derivative at x=-1, you can also do by that means
I think I should sleep

Okay so the work is really messy but basically I have to find:
Sin(x/2)
Cos(x/2)
Tan(x/2)
If csc(x)=7 for 90 to 180 degrees (quadrant 2)
I found sin by inverting csc and cos by plugging sin into the pythagorean identity
I'm trying to use the half angle theorem to solve for sin, cos, and tan, but it's pretty messy
I somehow got -1 for tan(x/2) but... I have very little confidence in that answer

Good to know
$\frac{a-b}{a+b} \ne \frac{-b}{b}$
Moosey
Wow
Do you have this memorized?
wydm
in your case I would multiply numerator and denominator by 7-4sqrt(3)
if you wanted to get rid of the 7+4sqrt(3) in the denominator
this is called multiplying by the conjugate
@fading spear
Sorry I'm just looking at my work
That would still leave the denominator as a fraction wouldn't it?
no, cause of difference of squares! (if you multiply it out)
you have $\frac{a-b\sqrt{c}}{a+b\sqrt{c}}$
Moosey
I am telling you multiply numerator and denominator by a-bsqrt(c)
(this is same as multiplying by 1
$\frac{a-b\sqrt{c}}{a+b\sqrt{c}}\cdot\frac{a-b\sqrt{c}}{a-b\sqrt{c}}$
Moosey
note that when you have $(x-y)(x+y)$, it is equal to $x^{2}-y^{2}$
Moosey
this is called difference of squares
do you see how the square root in the denominator would disappear now when we do this?

I can't figure this problem out. logbase3(5)+logbase3(x-4)=2. I simplified it down to logbase3(5x-20)=2 but dont know what to do from here
What's the aim, solve for x?
yes
2 can be rewritten as $log_{3}(3^2)$
Move it to the lhs and solve for x normally
What do you mean?
Im working with base 3 maybe i mistyped it
