r is actually the modulus
nah lol dw one step at a time
yeah
so now can you tell me what the modulus of this is

kk one sec im just uploading what i wrote so far
idk where to go from here
would it be c= 11/3? and b=3
idk
not yet idk where to start
my hint would be use logs
they seem to be set up so you can choose nice bases here too

"continuity"
there isnāt because the function at 3 doesnāt equal the limit as the function approaches 3
This function is not contintuous (does not have continuity) because you have to lift your pencil when you get to x=3
this is called a "point" or "jump" discontinuity
thank you i like this explanation
would this be considered a jump as well?
i'd believe so cause its going from -2 to 2 at x=4
yes
can you elaborate on this a little more for the first problem?
what does the function = at 3?
the limit is 0 though right?
look at the values of the function close to x=3
the limit from both sides approaches y=0
but if u notice thereās an open circle
indicating that the functionā 0 at x=3
instead thereās a closed circle above it
so the function at 3=1
1ā 0
so since the lim as x approaches 3 of the function does not equal the function itself at x=3 then there must be some sort of discontinuity

For this question part b and c I dont get
When you squareroot smth is the answer not both + and -
No
well
for every positive real number, there are exactly two real numbers that square to it
(Not in this context)
3 and -3 both square to 9 for instance
Yeah true
but having the symbol $\sqrt9$ denote two numbers simultaneously just turns out to be confusing and inconvenient
bee [it/its]
so often what you do is just declare that that means the positive one
How would I know when to do that and when to not
??
Wait
I think I am going insane š
Did someone say something
Honestly
I should sleep, I havent slept in two days and I am starting to lose it now
I'll figure this out later
Thanks!
i think generally if it's not explicitly stated you can assume the square root symbol is just referring to the positive one
or in the case of complex numbers there's a more general concept called the "principal" square root, so for instance sqrt(-1) would refer to just i and not also -i
yes
someone said something and then deleted it
Ohhh
the usual notation to get both square roots at once if someone does happen to want that would be to write $\pm\sqrt x$

If
g(x) = 3x + 1
and
h(x) = 9x2 + 6x + 7,
find a function f such that
f ā g = h.
(Think about what operations you would have to perform on the formula for g to end up with the formula for h.)
it is not
so how do I proceed?
following the hint would be a good place to start
there is no hint
the bit in the parenthesis is a hint
indeed
for example, if f(x) = 3x, then f(g(x)) = 9x+3
the 9 coefficient matches, so that's getting close
3x^2? but the 6x wouldn't match up
what's 3x^2?
9x^2 + 6x +1?
this also didn't answer my question, but whatever
1/3x^2?
if you're asking if f(x) = 1/3x^2, then I'd ask you to compute f(g(x)) and find out
there's not really a "way" aside from either trial and error, or some pattern recognition
go back to the start then?
g involves a 3x term, while h leads with 9x^2. How can you go from 3x to 9x^2?
3x
so if f(x) = 3x, what is f(g(x))?
(3x)^2?
this is the result of f(x) = 3x. Does squaring this give you a 9x^2?
it becomes 81x^2
note that you suggested f(x) = 9x^2, and your coefficient was 9 times too large
so what can you do to remedy this?
just make it f(x) = x^2?
expand this
indeed
okie ty
x^2 + 6 looks good to me

Could someone pls explain me why does DA = b - CD
Is B(bcosx, bsinx) a point ?
And is A(a,0) also a point
And how do we know that x and y of point B is bcosx and bsinx and how do we know that the x and y of point A is a and 0
Based on the Pythagorean theorem, c^2 = a^2 + b^2 right
and if so, how we know that a^2 = (bcosx-a)^2 and b^2 = (bsinx-0)^2 ?
yes
well the y coordinate is zero because itās on the x axis and it just goes at some distance a
which gives the x coordinate
and u can use trig cosx=horizontal distance/hypotenuse
horizontal distance is our x coordinate
and hypotenuse is b
so horizontal distance =bcosx
the same can be said for sinx
but instead of horizontal distance itās vertical distance
ok i understand it now, thank you!!

if speed represents a quantity
velocity represents the same quantity & direction
why isn't the speed of any point on a parametric curve (u(t), v(t)) just |v'/u'|
Why would it be |v'/u'|?
the instantaneous rate of change at any point is v'/u'
Oh you mean dy/dx
dy/dx is just the rate of change of y in respect to x
velocity is rate of change of position in respect to time
Two completely different things

Ok
Wait why?
take x common
help me explain better?
x(x^3 +8)
yeah so i get like x(x+2)(x^2 - 2x + 4)
When i entered that into my work tho it says its wrong
Factor your shit out
It can be simplified

oh perfect square

Contraposition could be useful method
same as contrapositive
proof by contrapositive
maybe
or proof by cases
contradiction could also work. I think ultimately it relies on using the prime factorization
OH
PIGEONHOLE
you have 3 numbers
and 2 primes
well, if its a multiple of 10, technically it could have more
but overall you could say 2^m * 5^n * j=a * b * c where m,n>0 and j not a multiple of 2 or 5
but you can still pigeonhole a,b,c to the prime factors of 2 and 5

Select the factors of P given P(x) = 0 at the points mentioned?
how do u mean?
idk what its called in english but itsnt like i need to use the chair to solve this one?
otherwise idk how i need to solve it
Like polynomial division?
yea
I was asking what the question is asking you - assumedly that youāre supposed to select from the list which are factors of the original polynomial
Mark the polynomials that divide
Management:
have the solutions
and
this is the translation of the question
For which, the factor theorem may be useful
Which says something like $(x - a)$ is a factor of $P$ if and only if $P(a) = 0$

another forum
Where is that?
Alright, thank you!
np bro
Sorry for interfering as well!
all good
For a, we can calculate the volume by using the base and height
So we get the height
Any ideas on how?
I know how to do a
Oh didnt see
thatās what Iām trying to figure out
what is it
I see H and s
but not bottom side
do I divide a by 2
Ohhhh
My bad
Oh yeah then you dont need H, sorry for the confusion
Then you probably also got
8.5^2 for base
And 4 times 0.5 * 8.5*12.2 right?
For the base, we can use pythagoras
We are given a triangle with 2 sides
Using pythagoras we can get the height,base is given
It is
Cant use pythagoras there

I can not figure out 21
i get the 2*50, but why 25
idk I was using the equations my teacher gave us
s=ut+0.5at^2?
(to make lives of students harder ;))
Projectile motion ?
Do u know thAT ?
formulas wont work everytime yk
50=0t+0.5gt^2
the only issue with what you had was the 25, g is not 25, at least not on this planet
Ok
you then just apply the projection time to the horizontal velocity and youll get horizontal distance travelled
Would it be 79.75

Adam Chebil
h --> 0 so no matter what the magnitude of the vector is, it's going to be equal to the directional derivative with respect to the unit vector, right ??
Adam Chebil
so ur proof doesn't work in this case ?
What exactly do you mean?
Adam Chebil
How does it not work?
wait is u not a vector in this case ?

hi, how can i prove that this is a whole number?
Square root of a square
translate please
prove that its a whole number
Just be sure you don't get tricked by one sneaky detail
okay
rn i can only get this far, i know that one is negative and one is positive
Think of how to rewrite the first one so you dont need the absolute sign and still get the same value
Exactly
Now think about the second one. Is there anything you need to modify to bring it out of the absolute value sign?
Or is it good as is and can just be rewritten without the absolutes?
i dont think theres anything to modify
True
is it because its a positive number
Yes. With absolutes you get the difference between the two values in this case.
3<2*sqrt(3), so to get the difference you need to subtract the smaller number (3) from the bigger one (2*sqrt(3)).
Meaning 2*sqrt(3) - 3
4>2*sqrt(3), therefore the difference (which must be positive, which is why you use absolutes) is 4-2*sqrt(3)
okay it makes more sense now
ill just do a few more questions
but thank u for ur help
i appreciate it

why in the proof it is required for epsilon to be equal to 0 ar 0 ? where do we need epsilon(0)=0 in this proof
?
The underlined line is to avoid a divide by zero error right?
that is my question where we need it
because without that definition when delta x=0 epsilon would be undefined
and therefore non continuous
where do we need that?
why do we need epsilon to be continuous at 0

ok here is the secret on how to perform ANY unit conversion, no matter what it is
Iām listening
you can employ this to the problems you have
think of whats happening when you do unit conversions as multiplying by 1
say, for the sake of example, we want to convert 3 hours to minutes
<siunitx>
You know that $\qty1{hour} = \qty{60}{minutes}$
so, say, we divide both sides by 60 minutes
<siunitx>
we get $\ds \f{\qty1{hour}}{\qty{60}{minutes}} = 1$
now, here is the neat part, we can totally flip this fraction and it would still remain 1
<siunitx>
so $\ds \f{\qty1{hour}}{\qty{60}{minutes}} = 1 = \f{\qty{60}{minutes}}{\qty1{hour}}$
so this is amazing
so what you should do when you are trying to perform unit conversions is to basically think of the units as variables you need to eliminate and modify
<siunitx> so we have $\qty3{hours}$
what we can do is multiply this by 1
multiplying by 1 doesnt change anything of course
<siunitx>but the thing is, [
\qty3{hours} \cd 1 = \qty3{hours}\cd \f{\qty1{hour}}{\qty{60}{minutes}} = \qty3{hours} \cd\f{\qty{60}{minutes}}{\qty1{hour}}]
So then how would I solve a question like this one
you could do either of those
BUT you have to think of what logically makes sense
you want to eliminate the hour unit
so you need to choose latter as the hours cancel
so you can employ this for pretty much any dimensionless conversion
ok sure
lets work on that
do you get the idea of my example though?
Yeah I do but these more confusing units are what Iām having trouble with
And like
What do I do with the number in front
okay, no worries, its the same strategy pretty much
So for this example its 254.7 in front
so like first, tell me the relationship between feet and inches, and beta and gamma
this thing is both intuitive and smart lol, i think once u practice these a few times, you won't even have to think
Yeah yeah I think so too
So the relationship according to the conversion chart
12 in = 1 ft
start with basic symbols nd u will build ur intuition for hard ones
1.1 gamma = 1 Y
Yeah
tht is something you have to remember or use chart for
so you notice how in ur problem it is given cubed yes?
she cn solve it by putting their values ig
<siunitx>
so what you should do is cube both sides of $\qty1{\beta} = \qty{1.1}{\gamma}$
can you try doing that?
just put 1.1 beta for gamma
So then gamma cubed = beta cubed?
yes
but you have to account for the 1 and 1.1
won't tht be easier?
1.33
It would be that?
i was close :)
1.1 x 1.1 x 1.1
<siunitx>[ \qty1{\beta} = \qty{1.1}{\gamma} \Iff \qty1{\beta^3} = \qty{1.331}{\gamma^3}]
all clear?
Where does the 1 after the 33 come from
,calc (1.1)^3
Result:
1.331
Also I am not touching the number in front yet?
Oh
what is?
Wait
wht is pi?
So the number in front is the total?
what do you mean by the 'total'?
just like value of pi is 3.14
1.1 x 1.1 x 1.1 = 1.331
it just assigns a value on "how much" of that unit the thing you are considering is
Okay
its been 100 hours since i took my exam
wwhich 1
So back to what we were saying
<siunitx>[
\qty{1.331}{\gamma^3} = \qty1{\beta^3} \
\qty1{feet} = \qty{12}{inch}
]
this is what we are considering
Okay
<siunitx>
anyways @deft vault lets consider your problem again of [
254.8,\f{\t{inches}}{\beta^3}
]
so i want you to recognise
lets start with the inches
we want to transform the inches to feet
12 inches per foot
so by our multiplying by 1 analogy
should we be multiplying by 1 feet/12 inch or 12 inch/1 feet?
which one eliminates the inches do you think?
think
are you sure tho?
No
so relatable
1?
Yeah definitely
Yeah
by dividing it by x
back to the question
Teach it to me like Iām 5 years old
umm
Lol
Okay so so so
1 foot divided by 12 inches
Would cancel out because both are technically the same
sure this time?
Is that correct?
what cancels out?
The inches
you are getting the hang of it
Okay okay
So the feet cancels out the inches
So then does the beta cancel out the alpha too?
ok the way you word it is extremely bad
Oh
Yes
again, think of them as variables
you are looking to eliminate the inch
so you want something inch/inch = 1
Think of it like itās multiplying by 1
1 feet/12 inches does that
Right?
yes exactly
you want your answer in feet/gamma cubed right
just put inch = feet/12 and beta = gamma/1.1
then with just basic calculations you get the answer
The / is divided by or times
I will generate a new example
ok, first try urself
So I have 965.9 as the number in front
Let me do math
Okay so it wants me to convert cm to feet
So I would first convert 1 cm to 1 inch
And then 12 inches by 1 ft
š š
What do I do with the number in front 965.9
Also this wants me to convert backwards also
keep it as it is
?
So 1.12 & to Y
ig
u cn do it, just put values from table
cn i go to sleep if u don't mind me leaving midway
Thatās fine
š cya, also gl

Hi, I am trying to solve this question, but I feel lost on trying to solve it.
deviation of the total noise. Suppose that we have a cooled CCD so that dark current is negligible
with an amplifier noise source having a standard deviation of three electrons. Photon noise is
also present as described in class. Assume that all noise sources are independent.```
What minimum signal (in electrons) is required so that the standard deviation of the amplifier noise is ten percent of the standard deviation of the total noise? If it helps, this is the equation

What's the general approach for determining the left/right hand side limits? E.g. if I'm confronted with a function that's not some simple polynomial, such as f(x)=log(x+1)/sin(Ļx) for x->1
@mighty nacelle
Is sin(pi x) continuous?
then doesn't the limit of the function approaching any point, equal the value of the function at that point
by the definition of continuity
and if the limit of the function exists at any given point, don't the left and right hand limits agree at that point?
by the definition of the two-sided limit
Sry had to switch trains
But sin(Ļ)=0
so we divide by zero
yet log(x+1)=log(2)ā 0 nor inf/-inf
I didn't realize you had edited your original question, I thought you were asking about the limit of sin(pi x) as x->1
formerly it was log(x)/sin(Ļx) but I realized I'd just use l'hopital
Alright well
you're right that log(2) != 0
this limit doesn't exist for that reason
whereas it might've saved you in the case of log(x) it doesn't here
if this limit existed
it will be equal to the limit of the numerator / limit of the denominator
which is undefined
but the left/right side limits must exist
they do exist
well
they actually don't
they go off to +/- inf
since sin(pi x) will pick up a sign if you come from the right vs. the left
well then they exist, just diverging
So the actual approach would be? I presume inserting x=1 yielding log(2)/0, no indeterminate form. sin(Ļx) approaches 0 from the positive on the left and negative on the right
log(1+x) is positive on either side when approaching log(2)
thereby left side limit is ā and right side limit is -ā?
doesnt feel like a proper proof though @thin vale
It suffices to show that either the left or right hand limit doesn't exist to show that the entire limit also doesn't exist
So pick a side
show it doesn't exist
You can do it by epsilon delta
Negate the definition
and prove it that way
We defined it in a way where ā and -ā count as existing limits
interesting okay well then just prove both sides don't exist
should be fairly straightforward
or not don't exist I guess
but don't agree
I'm used to tending to infinity being DNE
If I have another form where for instance a function approaches āā°, what would be suitable in that case
suitable as what?
suitable for determining left/right hand side limits
No sensible Calculus course should ever says a limit exists and equals infinity. You should read your notes very carefully.
I'm certain
There is a difference between writing that a limit equals infinity, then assigning a specific meaning to that notation and saying "the limit exists and equals infinity"
We'd write f->ā for x->...
not lim_f(x)=ā
We do separate them into "eigentlich" and "uneigentlich"
in German
where the first would stand for what you meant
and the latter extends it with {ā,-ā}
nywys I'm aware of the separation, I'm just uncertain how to determine the left/right hand side limits of functions that approach forms like āā°, 0*ā, 0^ā etc
for .../0 Austin has shown me
to just determine the sign for num & denom to find the limit
@obsidian stream do you know the approaches for forms like these? š
You usually just apply some algebraic manipulation until it is reduced to the case of 0/0 and then do it as usual.
or whatever ratio it might be
Could you show it for a sample?
Ok (1-cos(x))^(1/x)
for x->0
which approaches the form 0^ā

assuming you publish a video on youtube , 30 days before your video got 300 views and 60 likes. find the probability of getting 4 like tomorrow
This is what I djd
Probability of getting a like when you get a view is 60/300
So p of getting 4 likes when you get a view is 1/5 ^4
And p of getting a view is 30/300
So shouldn't the answer be 1/5 ^4 /(1/10)
Or do we use binomial and say
N=10.p=60/300 and x = 4

Can someone guide me through this improper integral? I've split it into two, and i'm now trying to solve the integral from 1 to infinity of that function. I have to determine whether this improper integral converges or not.
I've tried that the integral of 1/e^x converges, but the function e^-x * ln(x) isn't smaller than 1/e^x, so i couldnt use that comparison test.
are you allowed to compare ln(x) with x
true but you have to split it from 0 to 1 and then 1 to infin
wait what
why
bc ln(0) isnt defined right
yep
no clue
i know that ln(x) << x
in terms of growth and thus values as well
but lnx is in the numerator so it makes it a bit trickier right
wdym
i thought you were hinting to compare with 1/x
that doesnāt make sense though
yeah because lnx is in the numerator
e^(-x) ln(x) < e^(-x) * x for the āx goes to infinityā limit
yes

I had a further question about c)
so, the answer is that {b} and {c} are minimal elements
and {a, b, c} is a maximal element
if I were to add a single {x} to A, is {a, b, c} still a maximal element and are {b}, {c}, {x} now minimal elements or is {x} now a maximal element because it is not a proper subset of any other set
also, if we were considering the subset relation on A = {{a}, {b}, {c}} are all the elements minimal or maximal elements? or both or neither
@pulsar scroll Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185>
<@&286206848099549185>
{x} is both maximal and minimal because nothing contains it and nothing is smaller than it too
all elements are both
Remind me what defines a maximal and minimal element for this set
maximal <=> nothing contains it (for subset)
minimal <=> it contains no other element (for subset)
Ah right
do you mean there is no other element that can be a subset of the minimal element?
yes
