There are 100 vertices, each vertex can correspond to a number between 1 and 100
and a diagonal is defined by 2 vertices
Actually there is simpler answer then I had before: 4 vertices define 2 diagonals, right?
yes
How many ways are there to connect those 4 vertices to get intersecting diagonals?
this does depend if any of them are adjacent right?
You can assume they are all different, don't think adjacency matter
They have to intersect inside the 100-gon though
You can connect them in 3 ways
but not all of them will produce intersections
wait how did you get this
Yup, so that reduces the question to finding how many tuples of 4 vertices there are in the 100-gon
100 choose 4?
Yes
thanks for the help!

i fear that this question risks to be fuzzy and unprecise but i'm wondering if the following reasoning is sound:
so let T be the quotient space R / Z such that real numbers whose difference is an integer are equivalent.
i oberse that each equivalence class is represented by canonically by a number in [0, 1) and observe that for any sequence x_n the sequence of canonical representatives x'_n is a limited real sequence and therefore has a convergent subsequence and i wish to conclude that therefore x_n has a converging subsequence
no
not for the usual metrix
xn = n is constant in R/Z, but clearly xn doesn't have any convergent subsequence
btw the term is not limited, but bounded. Also technically you'd need compactness to use Bolzano-Weierstrass, and yet [0, 1) is not closed as a subset of R. So this would require a bit more detailing, but the conclusion holds.
However the conclusion can not be brought back to R
so all but the final step is a sound reasoning
@rocky lodge Has your question been resolved?
ah okay i see
hmm i don't see the issue with this example
because we just the constant 0 sequence right
and that is convergent
like, if we observe the sequence of canonical representatives of all sequence elements
okay but then isn't the real sequence of canonical representatives also just the 0 sequence
sorry, i'm a bit confused, do you mean xn in R or xn in T
because it seems to me that for xn in T this argument holds
I'm using your notations
xn in R
x'n in T
oh my bad i missphrased my question, sorry
what i mean to show is that any sequence x_n in T must have a convergent subsequence
then this is the idea
by constructing the real sequence of canonical representatives
ah, i see now i misread that answer aswell at first
because you can use the homeomorphism between T and [0, 1) to your advantage
ah, so then it is sound to observe the real sequence of canonical representatives to conclude properties any sequence in T?
d(x, y) = inf { | x - y - k | : k is integer }
so it's not the same metric as the usual one on [0, 1)
That's a problem you can solve quite easily though, I let you figure out how
hmm, i'll ponder a bit and try to properly write my idea down, thanks for the assistance

Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
the idea is to argue ||there's a convergent subsequence in [0, 1) with the usual metric, and it's also convergent for the metric on T||

,rotate
How do I go about solving 1st question
I thought of assuming a parametric point on the ellipse but I didn't get anything pretty
wow
but that wouldn't be general would it
how would we go about solving it for any point
parametric is prbly the way to go
yeah i thought so too
I am assuming you were having bad equations for the normal?
then what was the problem with parametric form?
it dosent simplify
its just a trigonometric expression
in the end
after we calculate it
i dont get a cosntant
constant*
what expression do you get?
Something ugly like this
damn thats ugly
yes very
if you simplify the value of CF using perpendicular distance formula u get 2root6/](2 + sin^2(theta))^(1/2)]
I think I have an idea to simply the process a bit
got it
lol
now
does PG value simplify to something good
?
I got it down to just one thing
I think
its correct
you only need to find point G slope of tangent
and you should be done
what
how did you get
G as 2/3costheta
i got it as root3costheta/6
equation of normal at parametric point is ax/costheta + by/sintheta = 1
if you substitute y = 0 in this you dont get 2/3 costheta
i think
@stiff crown
Is it right?
let me do it again

if I have to rotate that shape 90 degrees anticlockwise
I know I can do that method of like
Rotate points A,B and C 90 degrees anticlockwise
subtract centre, swap both places + then change x sign, add centre
This would be too complicated
Btw is it rotate with respect to point I ?
yes
Alright so first rotate point A
now when the point is (0,0). I use the compass and protractor steps to find rotation
here
i first tried subtracting centre, marked those points and then on those centre-subtracted points, I applied those steps with the compass and protractor
got the new points and added centre in them
but it is wrong apparently
Wdym by subtracting the centre ?
Do that for point B, step by step, and write down each step here
yeah but why can't I do this without that rule
like just with the compass and protractor rule
What's the compass and protractor rule
This video contains the constructions required related to transformations.
in this
4th type
I'm not watching that
that thing works when point of rotation is at the origin (0,0) but dosen't work when the point of rotation is not origin (0,0)
you can click it and it opens the right timestamp so dosen't waste your time
i have added the timestamp thingy in the link already
If a method works when the center of rotation is the origin then it works when it's not, you just have to pretend that the center of rotation is the origin
For example by "subtracting" it and then "adding" it back

How would you rewrite this without trig functions? And yes I used tan(2x) identity already but then there's square roots in the end and I'm sure there's a simpler way bcs my teacher wouldn't make it like that, I'm sure there's a trick.. or not.. so I'm curious, is there?
You should use their exponential expression
Could you show me?
The thing is tho that you might be working with imaginary numbers
Im looking up their formulas bcs i forgot 🙂
ohh that's okay.. could you sent them here as well? just so I make sure we're looking at the same stuff 😅
you might need this: $
\tan(\arcsin(x)) = \frac{\sin(\arcsin(x))}{\sqrt{1-\sin^{2}(\arcsin(x))}}$ and $\tan(\arccos(x)) = \frac{\sqrt{1-\cos^{2}(\arccos(x))}}{\cos(\arccos(x))}$
Alisia
ah yes
occupied @compact wren
#❓how-to-get-help
if you have a channel stick to it please
You should use these it would be easier
then using exponention forms
first of all make these formulas in terms of x
then use them in your task
so I can still use those formulas even though its tan(2arcsin(x)) and not tan(arcsin(x)).. What happens with the 2?
You should look up how to prove these formulas and see what changes
you have to keep in mind that $tg(2x)=\frac{2tg(x)}{1-tg^{2}(x)}$
Alisia
oh and then I just use those formulas on this one?
yes
Yea
just for reference
I just did the top and bottom of the fraction separately, I hope its not confusing
tell me if you need a clearer picture?
it looks kinda scuffy
I took it trough photomath and it doesn't seem easier tho
ik
I feel like there is a different way to approach this, I just don't know what i tis
what is the actual problem?
well
usually when we get these kinda problems on the exam, it expands nicely without any square roots in the end (without trig functions) but this one has them in the end and idk I feel like theres a diff way to simplify this
bcs then we also have to draw the graph
Indeed when you look at the solution provided by photomath it doesn't look easier tho
lemme try with my uni programms
can I show you something?
sure
in one of my recent exams, we had this problem
and yeah I used the identities and got it correct but
the teacher did it in such a simpler way look
sorry it's in my language but yeah
that second row..
I haven't seen that before
is that the ln(cas(a) + i*sin(a))³ on line 2?
you undergrad?
yes
this is what I get if i put it in the program
damn really
hmmh i have no idea haven't seen it
yea indeed
like in comparison to the previous one
um okay thanks anyways I'll try figuring it out or asking someone from my school maybe.
Yea i have no idea how you would approach ir
yea gl

Ok guys, My book wants me to find the area (IN SQ IN) of a room that is 12ft 9in by 8ft 8in. So I converted it to 153in x 104in, right? That comes out to 15,912. My book says its wrong, says its. 12,168 sq in. Am I crazy?
!original
Please show the original problem, exactly as it was stated to you, with the entire original context. A picture or screenshot is best. If the original problem is not in English, then post it anyway! The additional context might still be helpful. Do your best to provide a translation.
do you know how to go from feet to inches?
Should be that number times 12
On this problem... 12 x 12 + 9
8 x 12 + 8
right?
That came out to 153in & 104in
did you get 2a correct?
yes
which is?
book's wrong yeah
When I do the example problem the exact same way I get it right just like the example, but when I do this one its off.
it just seems like the book is wrong
the book isnt always correct
most of the time it is
but even authors of a textbook make mistakes
Ok, thanks. I just thought I was missing something.
GREATLY appreciate your help guys!

I assume the answers are wrong, or maybe there is some flaw with my understanding
but apparently, period is $\frac{\pi}{3}$
mj
doesn't make sense to me
because the k-value here is 3
and period=2pi/k, in this case 3. So wouldn't the period be 2pi/3?
I’ve no idea what the 2pi/k is supposed to be but normal tan has a period of pi so if you stretch horizontally it by a factor 3 (or 1/3 rather), you’d have totimes the period by 1/3.
it comes from the formula k=2pi/period
this is for sin and cos
period of tangent is pi as pure said
how come?
,w graph sin(x),cos(x),tan(x)
period is shorter
okahy
so base period of
sin and cos
is 2pi
for tan it's pi
so would you use period=pi/k(3)
alright thanks

Let $P(n)$ be the statement:
For $n\ge 1$ , if $|A|=n$, then the size of the set of all bijective functions from $A$ to itself is $n!$.
$P(1)$ is true since the only function from a singleton set to itself is the identity which is bijective.
Suppose inductively, we have shown that $P(n)$ is true.
If $|A|=n+1$, $|A|$ is non-empty and thus there exists $a \in A$. Then we have that $|A/{a}|=n$ and so by our inductive hypothesis, the size of $K$(set of all bijective functions from $A/{a}$ to itself) is $n!$. For $b \in A$, let $A_b$ be the set of functions from $A$ to itself where $f \in A_b$ iff $f(b)=a$ and $f(a)=\rho(b)$ and $f(c)=\rho(c)$ if $c\not=a,b$ where $\rho \in K$.
Next, we show that:
- The elements of $A_b$ are bijective.(Skip)
- $|A_b|=n!$ (skip)
- $A_b\cap A_{b'}$ is empty if $b\not=b'$. (Skip)
Then since $|A|=n+1$, we have $|\bigcap_{b \in A}A_b|=(n+1)!$.
Im having some trouble with the final step
of showing that $\bigcap_{b \in A}A_b$ contains every bijective function from $A$ to $A$
hint : for f a bijective function on A, let b = f^-1(a)
oh okay i will thikn about it and oops, in my working it should be unions instead of intersections*
no problem, union is \bigcup
Ok i think i got 1 way. If $f$ is bijective on $A$. we can have $g$ from $A{a}$ to itself defined by $g(c)=f(c)$ if $c\not=a,b$ and $g(b)=f(a)$. We have to show that this $g$ is bijective, then $g\in K$.
Finally, we have that $f(b)=a$. $f(a)=g(b)$, $f(c)=g(c)$ for $c\not=a,b$ and thus $f \in A_b$
Iusgnol
oh and also I need to show that f(a) is indeed in A/{a} but this should be easy enough since f is bijective and f(b)=a

What is your question?
A 3x3 matrix times a 3x1 matrix gives you a 3x1 matrix. The multiplication was performed and the values in each row were added together. I'm not sure why it was written like that though
@halcyon turtle Has your question been resolved?
but here they added the row elements..is that even an operation?
or is it a formula to find x y z?
I'm not sure why they wrote it like that, but for example, the first value in the 3x1 matrix should be (9x18)+(-38x13)+(37x20). It should just be standard matrix multiplication
the variables are found using the equation Ax = b
Ax = b
A^-1(Ax) = A^-1b
Ix = A^-1b
x = A^-1 * b
The same thing that I said above still applies. It's just that the inverse of A is found using cramer's rule, or X = (Adj(A) / |A|) * D, rather than standard matrix inversion
i do understand that..my doubt is in the last 2 step..can row elements just be added like that?
^
there should be addition symbols between the values but I'm guessing they were left out for some reason. let me right out the multiplication rq
^^ Just a mistake in the book. Here’s my work though

I'm trying to determine the period of this function
f = 1/T, where T = period, and f = frequency
use this
oh sorry didn't even explain what I tried to do lol
okay, so I basically realized it was 3 rotations / 5 minutes
so I plugged it in to find time for 1 rotation
giving me 0.6 minutes / rotation
okay
1 rotation being 1 period
not sure if that's correct though
its more common to express in seconds
but otherwise you agree period in this instance is 0.6 minutes?
because that's where I'm getting confused
T will be 5/3
not 3/5
how come?
I understand there's different ways to say it
in fractions
5 minutes / 3 rotations
or 3 rotations / 5 minutes
actually it's making sense
because one is dependant on the other
the more time goes by, the more rotations go by
rotations doesn't subjectively make time go by
f = 1/t
f = 1 /3/5
f = 1 * 5/3
f = 5/3

How do you guys think about why (AB)^T = (B^T)(A^T) for matrices A and B of appropriate dimensions?
this may help
this even more so https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/1279861/why-intuitively-is-the-order-reversed-when-taking-the-transpose-of-the-product/1282499#1282499
basic idea is to think of [
\trans{(AB){ij}} = (AB){ji}
]
and think what that really means
@worn bobcat Has your question been resolved?
The way I see matrix multiplication at the moment is that you have the definition which one can visualize however one chooses, and then from that definition you can interpret AB as either
- a matrix where the columns of B dictate what kind of linear combinations of the columns of A to take as the columns of the resulting matrix
- a matrix where the rows of A dictate what kind of linear combinations of the rows of B to take as the rows of the resulting matrix
And the fact that those two interpretations arise from the same general definition is essentially what (AB)^T=(B^T)(A^T) is trying to capture.
So if you think about just AB as taking linear combinations of the columns of A as dictated by B, then if you flip and transpose the matrices to get (B^T A^T) then you can change your viewpoint to think about taking linear combinations of the rows of A^T, as dictated by B^T. But these rows were previously the columns of A, and likewise the columns of B are now the rows of B^T. Therefore you're taking the same linear combinations of the same vectors, except this time they're row vectors, and thus (B^T A^T) = (AB)^T
I don't know if that makes any sense or if you think that's a good way to think about this.
I used to think of AB as only having the interpretation of taking linear combinations of the columns of A (disregarding the row interpretation), but the LU decomposition made me realize that the row interpretation can be just as valuable as the column interpretation, because (at least the way they do it in Gilbert Strang's lectures) you use lower triangular matrices to denote row operations, which basically can be interpreted as saying "take this amount of the first row, this amount of the second row, etc."
And combining those two interpretations gives rise to the famous (AB)^T = (B^T)(A^T) result as far as I can tell. Or at least it seems to make sense in my head.
Thoughts?

When f=o(g) or f=O(g) are we comparing the growth rate or the order of magnitude of the functions ?
growth rate if you're looking at x->infty
order of magnitude if you're looking at x->c for some finite point c
well i guess not order of magnitude in the power of 10 sense
Wouldn't comparing the order of magnitude give the same result ?
ok wait
what is the difference between order of magnitude and growth rate according to you
Growth rate means how fast the value of f(x) increasing or decreasing as the value of x increases.
Order of magnitude is how big the value of f(x) is ? (i'm not sure if this is the right definiton)

What's the difference between growth rate and order of magnitude of a function ??
growth shows how fast it is going
order of magnitude is its size relative to a power of 10
growth rate emphasizes the relative speed of function growth, while the order of magnitude focuses on a coarse measure of size relative to powers of 10
What does that mean ?
Size meaning the value of f(x) ?
yes
When f=o(g) or f=O(g) are we comparing the growth rate or the order of magnitude of the functions ?
if a function's order of magnitude is 10³ it means the function's value is on the order of thousands
growth
It means the value of f(x) is between 1000 and 9999 ?
correct.
Wouldn't comparing the order of magnitude give the same result ?
not exactly
similar
but not exactly
if f and g have the same order of magnitude, it means that the most significant terms in their expressions are of the same power of 10. This doesn't necessarily mean that they grow at the same rate, but they share a similar scale
if any other questions ping me
related to this
But if f is dominated by g
We can say that g has a bigger order of magnitude or that g grows faster than f
They mean the same thing to me...
it implies one of them
either magnitude either growth
Why not both?
its possible for both to happen
but it might happen that it grows faster but it stays in the same magnitude as the other function
and vice versa
to grow faster and not be in the same magnitude
How is that possible ?
do we consider strict monotone functions
Two functions can have the same order of magnitude if their leading terms are of the same power of 10, even if one grows faster than the other
do you want an example?
@urban laurel Has your question been resolved?
Yes please
x^2 obv
But as x approaches inf we can't determine the order of magnitude
both terms have the same order of magnitude which is x^1 or 10x
take another example
f(x) = 2x^2 + 5x+1
g(x) = 3x^3 +2x^2 + 4x
For x=100 : f(x)=10³ and g(x)=10⁴
They don't have the same order of magnitude ?
they have initially , as it approaches infinity it changes
that's what you seems confused about
f(x) = 100x
g(x)= x^2
x = 100
Why did u say that they have the same orderof magnitude then?
they initially have
it depends on the function totally
Try 100k
there are counterexamples
yes
there are counterexamples
but for some point they still have the same magnitude
INITIALLY
Yeah but in all the examples that u provided comparing the order of magnitude or growth rate give the same result which is that one function grows faster than the other
i stated that "but it might happen that it grows faster but it stays in the same magnitude as the other function"
right?
Yes
snow
$g(x) = \sqrt(x) + ln(x)$
snow
The order of magnitude differs for different values of x
yes i know
but
what is it now
for both functions
there is a common magnitude without any values for x
Which is what ?
well idk it srry 😐
the order of magnitude right now is $\sqrt(x)$
snow
So order of magnitude is a function ??
its a concept
not a function
when we note O(x^2)
it means the growth of f(x) is roughly propotional to the square of the input x for large values of x
same as sqrt(x)
I'm not following srry
here in this two functions for small values f(x) behaves like g(x) due to the dominance of square root, if x grows larger g(x) grows faster because of ln(x)
Wdym it's a concept?
what do you consider order of magnitude as being?
Can u give the definition of the order of magnitude of a function?
idk
The order of magnitude of a function is a way of characterizing its growth or size, particularly as the input approaches certain values (often infinity). It provides a simplified description of the function's behavior by focusing on the most significant term or dominant factor that influences its growth
How is it calculated?
consider this function f(x) =3x^3 + 2x^2 +5x+1
what is the dominant term of the function
3x³
correct
the focus will be on that term
now you express the magnitude on that term
on the dominant term
3x³ is the order of magnitude of f ?
f(x) = O(x^3)
yes
the cubic term is the most significant for large values of x
so we will express magnitude as f(x) = O(x^3)
Ok
do you understand?
So the order of magnitude of g(x) is ln(x) ?
Well g(x)=O(sqrt(x)) is also incorrect
g(x) grows faster than sqrt(x)
i have not said which one grows faster, i just asked you to tell me what magnitude each of them have, at the begging
both function have the same magnitude
your statement is correct, g(x) grows faster than f(x)
They don't
why not?
What's the order of magnitude of g(x)
Well u said that they have the same order of magnitude not me
How can u say that if udk the order of magnitude of g(x)
You said that the order of magnitude of both functions is sqrt(x)
based on this example
yes
is my statement true or false?
False cause based on the definition u provided if sqrt(x) is the order of magnitude of g(x) then g(x)=O(sqrt(x))
$g(x) = \sqrt{x} + ln{x}$
snow
saying g(x) = O(g(x)) is not true
g(x)=O(sqrt(x)) is also wrong
why?
wrong
sqrt(x) + ln(x) < 2sqrt(x) after x = 10, which is O(sqrt(x)), so it's O(sqrt(x)).
big O notation does not care about small numbers. zoom out
how'd u know that though
Well, ln(x) < sqrt(x) after x = 10.
So, sqrt(x) + ln(x) < sqrt(x) + sqrt(x) = 2 sqrt(x) after x = 10.
I just added sqrt(x) to both sides.
Then, constant terms are removed, so O(sqrt(x)).
Well, for big-O, it only needs to be always greater after any x value you choose.
So, it might be greater than the other after x = 0 too, so you can use that if you want.
I just picked x = 10 because that also works.
$f(x)=\sqrt{x} \ g(x)= \sqrt{x} + \ln (x) \ f=O(g)$ and $g=O(f)$
Adam Chebil
Yes. O is really a set, and O(f) and O(g) are the same set.
You can do that by multiplying either f or g by 2.
so f and g are equivalent ?
That'll show that g is in O(2f) and f is in O(2g).
No, just their big O set.
You can even say that g is in big Theta(f) or vice versa.

@upbeat maple Has your question been resolved?
sub x=1 and x=-1 and then see if it converges
@upbeat maple Has your question been resolved?
What did you try?
I can see two subsequences of the k-th sum forming that converges at two different points. So you need to divide the series into two parts
For the evens we have $\sum_
{n=0}^\infty x^n$ and for the odds we have $\sum_{n=0}^\infty (x/3)^n$
(use latex)
Ericsson
Try to observe the question maybe, problem solving comes with practice
Okay tell me what will the numerator be when i plug in an even number
You forgot the x
You don't need to apply the geometric formula since we are interested in the interval on which the sum will converge
For the evens, what should be the interval for x so that the sum will converge?
Why not the evens?
Ericsson
$\sum_{r=0}^\infty r^n=\dfrac{1}{1-r}$ given that $\abs(r)<=1$.
```Compilation error:```! Missing delimiter (. inserted).
<to be read again>
r
l.53 \end{document}
I was expecting to see something like `(' or `\{' or
`\}' here. If you typed, e.g., `{' instead of `\{', you
should probably delete the `{' by typing `1' now, so that
braces don't get unbalanced. Otherwise just proceed.
Acceptable delimiters are characters whose \delcode is
nonnegative, or you can use `\delimiter <delimiter code>'.```
ratio test he mean ig
$\sum_{r=0}^\infty r^n=\dfrac{1}{1-r}$ given that $|r|<1$.
yeah thats a GP property
What's the command for an absolute?
|| i think
No abs?
Ericsson
I always thought it was \abs
Yes
Take the intersection of both of these intervals and that's your answer
Yeah
Check the options again, option D have the point x=1 included
Bruh
What's the sum of infinite 1's?
If x=1, you will get infinity thanks to the even series

Calculating the volume of a solid revolution. What am I doing wrong? Im using the formula marked in green (disk method)
what’s wrong
my final answer
what is shared looks correct so far
^
The final ans should beis $ 144\pi - 2\pi \int_2^{0} (6-x4+x^2)^2 dx $
$ 144\pi - 2\pi \int_2^{0} (6-x4+x^2)^2 dx $
Hello latex bot?
$ 144pi - 2\pi \int_2^{0} (6-x4+x^2)^2 dx $
broke
but yeah
thats what it should be
Of coruse, i changed the limits of integration, which is allowed
but the final integrated answer is not the same
this should be the final answer
what is the solid you are trying to compute?
idk the name of it
0<y<4-x^2 or 4-x^2<y<6 about the line y=6 ?
your 2:33 and 2:29 posts correspond to each case respectively
🧐
I dont get it
Never really thought of that
Okay, i got it working with the shell method. Ill come back to the disk method later as its required to use both methods

omitting the abs(x) will decrease of sqrt(abs(xy)) and that will make it superior but omitting the sqrt with the abs (x) will not make it superior to (sqrt(abs(x)) + sqrt(abs(y)))^2 why they did it anyway in the correction this is confusing me
Sorry, I don't really understand your confusion. Could you point out which step/line you're referring to?
okay first i have to prove this
Okay.
Yes, if abs(y)<=abs(y) then the inequality is trivially true.
yeah the problem is with the second one
then
now we try to make (sqrt(x)-sqrt(y))^2 <= abs(x-y)
but the method they used in the correction semmed to me incorrect
\begin{align}
\p(\s{\abs{x}} - \s{\abs{y}})^2 &= \abs{x} + \abs{y} - 2\s{\abs{xy}}\\
&<=\abs{x}+\abs{y} -2\abs{y}\\
&<=\abs{x}-\abs{y}\\
&<=\abs{x-y}
\end{align}
which equation do you think is incorrect?
but why eliminating the sqrt
snow
so from (1) to (2)?
yeah
You agree that in this case abs(x)>=abs(y)
yeah
then you should also agree that (\s {|x|} >= \s{|y|})
snow
yes
so (2\s{\abs{xy}} >= 2\s{\abs{y^2}} = 2|y|)
snow
yes but why y^2
because |x|>=|y|
yeah yeah
(2\s{\abs{xy}} = 2\77{\s{|x|}}\s{|y|} >=2\77{\s{|y|}}\s{|y|} = 2\s{\abs{y^2}} = 2|y|)
snow
so it's replacing the abs(x) with abs(y) oo now i understand
Thank you !

The question is: How can 8 rooks be placed on a chess board so that they cover all the squares
My answer is: 8^8 - 8!
The correct answer is: 2*(8^8) - 8!
Any ideas why? The rooks are all identical (I googled a bit and for some reason in some problems people consider colored rooks)
or at the A column or the h coloumn
ohhh , that would be 8^8 *4
.
all the possible ways to arrange them so they cover all the ways
8^8 is just all the possible ways
hmmm , you're right its 8^8
I subtract 8! from that because thats the number of ways to arrange them so that they dont hit each other
so my answer is 8^8 - 8!
but it should be 2*(8^8) - 8!
@wide sundial I explained there
yeah and that’s for all rows
well its in fact all the possible ways to arrange the rooks randomly
Doesnt 8^8 account for all that?
then you subtract instances where you have rooks in every column and every row
like 8^8 already includes the columns and the rows
i think its only 8!
8^8 only includes the rows individually or the columns individually imo
this is just inclusion exclusion
not both
I understand what you mean here, but if I add another 8^8 am I not adding the same thing?
Because it doesnt matter, the placement is still the same
I calculate the same position twice if I add another 8^8
8^8 to cover all rows, 8^8 to cover all columns, - 8! to not count the intersection twice
yeah and I dont understand the rows and columns part
yeah there are some double counted instances which is why you subtract the 8! (so that every rook has a row and every rook has a column)
this is my problem
Place a rook on each row, you have 8^8 ways to do that, and the board is always fully covered because all rows are
Now do the same with the columns, you won't get the same configurations
its not always covered, if you put the rooks in a diagonal the rooks dont attack each other
it still covers the entire board
Some of the configurations are the same, namely those where all the rooks are isolated in both columns and rows
That's the 8! part
hmmm
Why are you talking about rooks attacking each other?
rooks attack all vertical spaces above and below it
because I need to cover all of the board
so it can all be diagonally configured and still cover the board
That has nothing to do with rooks attacking each other
All you need is to cover either all rows or all columns, or both
hmm I guess ur right. I just wanted them attack each other so I covered all the board xd
if the rooks are in the same row/column then they attack each other and they might not cover the board but otherwise
I see
it does
okay so can we go over the row and column part again? I did not understand a single thing
8^8 is for all the rows
This?
I understand this
guys give me a question
I dont get what comes after it tho
I'll solve
!occupied
7
lol
I need help actually
You can do this:
x _
x _
x _
_ x
_ x
x _
_ x
_ x
so all the possible ways to arrange rooks there is 2^2
4 ways to cover all the rows
yep
and this channel is occupied so #❓how-to-get-help
which also accounts for covering the coulmns so we dont need to add nother 2^2
im really bad at math I only know 1st grade maths
You can also do this:
x x
_ _
x _
_ x
_ x
x _
_ _
x x
4 ways to cover all the columns
It doesn't, as you can see above
slow down
guys I'm really bad at math
wait
help me please
the middle two, how are they relevant to the columns
They still cover all the columns...
I see that they are repeated both for columns and rows

I dont get how you get that
Yeah, and that's the 8! part
how do you get this arrangement tho
What arrangement
this
... same as this but sideways (rotated 90º)
<@&286206848099549185> please help me
oh its like changing the axis
Yeah I see
I'm really bad at math
I just know 1st grade math
how can I become Einstein in 1 day?
so the middle parts are repeated twice
Yeah
so we need to subtract 2 to get rid of repitition
Yeah
O?

No, it's 2!
but we subtract 8! there
it’s 2x2 so 2!
I thought someone will help me
2×2is4
oh makes sense
You pick one column for the first row, another column for the second, and so on
practise ? i guess
yeah I think I got it
like I legit know only 1st grade maths
from where?
So 2*1 in 2x2, or 8*7*6*... in 8x8
yep
but I'll waste alot of time
would have been easier if some people didnt turn into a public chat tho @vast shale @minor plaza @vast shale
this is public chat?
you're acting like it is

Hello! I have no idea how to validate these statements only with a graphic, any idea?
Thanks!
I think that the first objective is know how to get the first derivate and i don't know : (
For the first derivative, you just rlly need to know that
If f is decreasing -> f' < 0
If f is Increasing -> f' > 0
um....
following this, the first derivate of f(x) is f'(x)>0
Yes, the function is always increasing, so f' > 0 for all x
so what can we say about this with regards to the options
the second option is true
but it can be more than only one
Do you know how to the second derivative relates to the original function?
no
f is concave up -> f'' > 0
f is conacve down -> f'' < 0
I mean, i know how to calculate it, but i'm not sure abut the meaning in the function
If you mix up which shape is which, an easy way to figure it out is to consider x^2 and -x^2 (sketch the graphs and take the second derivatives to determine concavity)
following this, the true statement the third one
So just to confirm, the TRUE statements are the first and third? @lone linden
about this
oh
You said second here
idk if you just transcribed incorrectly
it should be (2) and (3)
ops sorry yes yes

ok
and you think that for some reason these formulas could possibly NOT apply to some specific distribution, yes?
these formulas are universal
they apply to everything
discrete and continuous respectively
the other formulas you see further down the line are consequences of these
when you replace the general mass/density functions with the specific functions for particular classes of distributions
not sure if "make it easier" is a good angle for it

6/2(1+2) is 1
its like if ur told 6/2x ur not gonna do
6x/2
thats js dumb
For you
there's no correct or incorrect way
the syntax is ambiguous, period
theres a reason why the divide symbol isnt used beyond grade 4 maths
you can definitely still use the division symbol appropriately given that you use sufficient parentheses
it can still lead to confusion so its best to steer clear
if you use sufficient parentheses you can completely skip PEMDAS lol
