We get $3x - 2x -y -(-y) = 1 -(-1)$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

undone swift
#

Thank you 🙂

tight crescent
#

$x -y + y = 1 +1$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

$x = 2$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

And boom, we've already got x!

tight crescent
#

And we do the same thing we did before

#

Go into one of the earlier equations, plug x in and get y

#

Say $2x - y = -1$

#

$2 \cdot 2 - y = -1$

undone swift
#

2x2?

#

. means multiply right?

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

Yep

#

The dot in the middle means multiplication

undone swift
#

4-y=-1?

tight crescent
#

$4 - y = -1$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

$-y = -5$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

$y = 5$

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

tight crescent
#

Of course, even if you use different methods you get to the same solution

#

This is math

undone swift
#

Ohh so these are different methods

#

👍

tight crescent
#

Yes

#

We first solved by substitution

undone swift
#

Thank you for real catthumbsup

tight crescent
#

We isolated one variable (y) and plugged it into another equation, got x, then got y

#

And now we got rid of one variable (y)

#

We could have also gotten rid of x

#

But that's more work

#

Okay, so now that we have x and y

#

We can get the length of the sides

#

Remember this from before

#

$3x + 2 = 2y - x = y + 3$

undone swift
#

Yeah it depends some people prefer easier methods and some hard methods

clever fjordBOT
#

USS-Enterprise

undone swift
#

I prefer easier lol

tight crescent
#

You've got sides (3x + 2), (2y - x), (y + 3)

undone swift
#

The way you're doing these methods it's really helpful thank you 🙂 catthumbsup

tight crescent
#

If we plug the variables x = 2 and y = 5

#

We get 3 * 2 + 2 = 8 for the first side

#

2 * 5 - 2 = 8 for the second

#

5 + 3 = 8 for the third

#

Notice how they are the same!

#

It's a equilateral triangle

undone swift
#

For real!

tight crescent
#

So the side of your triangle is 8cm!

#

And now

#

We just need the area

undone swift
tight crescent
#

And there's a cool formula for the area of a equilateral triangle

tight crescent
#

We did

#

b) says find the area

#

and we need the length of a side for the area

undone swift
#

b) says find perimeter

tight crescent
#

Oh perimeter

#

Sorry!

undone swift
#

I'll send screenshot again don't worry!

#

I'm for real sorry tho if this is a lot hard working

tight crescent
#

How do we find the perimeter of a equilateral triangle?

tight crescent
undone swift
undone swift
undone swift
#

Yeah my friend and I work together but I will send her a message to tell her that one guy online helped me with this equation 🙂

#

she doesn't have discord

#

except social media lol

tight crescent
#

Hehe

#

Okay so

#

Just the easiest part follows

#

how do we get the perimeter of an equilateral triangle?

undone swift
undone swift
#

we focus on these again?

#

wait no

tight crescent
#

What's the perimeter of a shape?

undone swift
#

we add by multiplying in each for x = 2 and y = 5

#

?

tight crescent
#

Don't worry about that

undone swift
undone swift
tight crescent
#

Yep

undone swift
#

It doesn't say

#

Just this only

tight crescent
#

The perimeter measures the total length around the outside of a shape

#

It means

#

You add the lengths of all the sides

#

But an equilateral triangle has 3 sides a

#

So the perimeter is just 3a

#

And we know our side has a length of 8cm

#

So what's the perimeter?

undone swift
#

8x3 = 24?

tight crescent
#

Exactly!

#

24cm

undone swift
#

Dang! So we only needed 3a I thought we needed more haha

tight crescent
#

So the answers: a) x = 2, y = 5 and b) perimeter = 3a = 3 * 8cm = 24cm

tight crescent
tight crescent
#

The perimeter is always adding all the sides

tight crescent
#

Anyway. I hope I've been of help at least a bit

#

And wish you all the best 😄

undone swift
#

This math thing can be really complicated sometimes haha

tight crescent
#

yep ... hehe

undone swift
#

You really reminded me of my teacher's last year ngl!

tight crescent
#

Thank you! Means a lot

undone swift
tight crescent
#

So yeah, my DMs are always open

#

Just shoot me a DM if you have another question

#

And I'll get to you as soon as I can

undone swift
tight crescent
#

No problem. Have a good day

undone swift
#

At the same time I feel bad because my friend was sad on yesterday we literally had a lot of hws to do and she said life is too short to do these things etc

undone swift

tight crescent
#

Woah

#

Quite a bit 😅

undone swift
#

Yeah we really had a lot

tight crescent
#

Do you at least have a week off now?

#

undone swift
#

Not a lot

tight crescent
#

Ah

undone swift

🙃

undone swift
#

Yeah for real I got tired like even my mom asked if I'm ok and when I will take a break lol

tight crescent
#

😂

undone swift
#

Srslyyy they rlly give us a lot of hws

#

They think were robots lol

tight crescent
#

hehe

undone swift
#

and we also had to literally buy things online today too what were they thinking like were some kind of technition? 😂

tight crescent
#

Damn

undone swift
#

Ikr

#

Are u in college or?

#

Wish you all the best bc for real u deserve better!

tight crescent
#

Hah, not yet

undone swift
tight crescent
#

Thanks. You too

undone swift
#

What subjects u have?

tight crescent
#

Well

undone swift
#

I have about coding I used to have science but not anymore lol

tight crescent
#

I've got Math, Slovene, English, Chemistry, Biology, History, Geography, Sociology, Art History, German, Physics

undone swift
#

How are you doing tho?

#

Are u doing great atleast?

tight crescent
#

I'm doing as I want to

#

Not disappointed

undone swift
tight crescent
#

Thanks

#

But I'm way better at natural sciences

#

Than social

undone swift
#

That's great I used to have science before and we used to do research it's all thanks to my friend that I passed we mostly had online assignments for those

undone swift
tight crescent
#

Well look anyway, I gotta go now

#

So

#

It was nice meeting you

#

See you around some day 🙂

#

And good luck with the homework

Hi I need help with this question. I got y = 1 but it says that’s wrong…
I tried
3(1) - 4x + 10 = 9

pine drift
zenith jasper
#

you have x = 1 and you are given y = -4x + 10

pine drift
#

Should I put that x value in

mystic saffron
#

yes

#

but there is no point in what you did

#

you want to find y

#

y= -4x +10, put x = 1

pine drift
#

I did it bc it says in the 1st step to substitute y value into the first equation

#

Does that mean something else

pine drift
#

I got 6

mystic saffron
#

yes

pine drift
#

Ok Tysm!

Hi again. I got the blue line slope but I couldn’t get the yellow line slope. Idk how to do it… I kind of see a point on (2,20) and (4,40) ?

pine drift
silent pine
#

so for the yellow line you have points (0,0) and (6, 63) and using that you should be ok

pine drift
#

Ohhh ok so they gave it to me already?

silent pine
#

right

pine drift
#

Yeah it’s correct! Tysm! I didn’t know what to do

silent pine

no problem glad I could help

glass horizon
#

coukd anyone help on 4a and 4b?

odd edgeBOT
glass horizon
#

for a, do i just double the masses in the equation i found in 3?

#

or start from my equation i found for acceleration and double that

odd edgeBOT
#

@glass horizon Has your question been resolved?

coarse shuttle
#

then factor

#

and the twos will cancel out

#

so it doesnt change

glass horizon
#

okay thanks! do you know how to do 4b? @coarse shuttle

#

i got t = undefined

#

but i dont know what that means?

coarse shuttle
#

since both masses are equal you're dividing by 0

#

Which first of all is unholy to write as is

#

lol

glass horizon
#

lol

coarse shuttle
#

you shoud write it as delta m as delta m -> 0

#

Would be more correct

glass horizon
#

eh i dont think my teacher cares

#

but what does t = undefined mean?

#

that the blocks fall down at the same time or wont even reach the ground at all?

coarse shuttle
#

it's a matter of calculating the limit

glass horizon
#

OH WAIT do they not reach the ground because since they are attached to the same cord they'll be in equilibrium of each other

#

?

#

i forgot to send the drawing oops

coarse shuttle
#

It's not exactly undefined

#

There are one sided limits

#

Consider the following

#

$\underset{x\to m}{lim} \quad \sqrt{\frac{-a(m+x)}{m-x}}$

clever fjordBOT
coarse shuttle
#

If x comes from the right, the limit will give +infinity

#

if x comes from the left, the limit will give i*infinity

#

Which doesnt exactly physically makes sense

#

So let's assume x comes from the right

#

t goes to infinity

#

And you indeed have equilibrium

coarse shuttle
#

Or you could factor and show rigourosly but idk if you already did limits

narrow shoal
#

pls help me. I dont understand why 5% higher is the correct answer.

narrow shoal
#

Its from a deca practice test, and I need to know how to do it asap.

frail thistle
#

Gross profit = sales - COGS

#

then you find gross margin

#

Do you know how to find it?

narrow shoal
#

no srry

#

ik how to find cogs

#

just not the gross margin

frail thistle
#

Ok gross margin or gross profit in the way they state it is gross profit/sales

narrow shoal
#

bc in the question is says the sales amount

frail thistle
#

it's just a percentage

#

More specifically if $1 of sales, how much of that $1 is gross profit

#

If you calculate gross profit and then the gross margin, you'll get to your answer of % and then compare with the industry standard

narrow shoal
#

ok ill try that ty

frail thistle
#

Lemme know if you're able to get to the right answer

narrow shoal
#

@frail thistle im still not understanding it

#

im getting 30%

frail thistle
#

Can you show me your steps?

narrow shoal
frail thistle
#

Why are you subtracting 20000?

narrow shoal
#

260,000 bc cost of goods sold is $260,000

frail thistle
#

I mean why are you subtracting 140000 by 260000

#

You already found gross profit with sales - COGS

#

Which is 140000

narrow shoal
#

yea but then how do i convert that into percentage

frail thistle
#

Remember gross margin is gross profit (140000)/sales

narrow shoal
#

oooh so would i do 140000/ 400,000?

frail thistle
#

Yup

narrow shoal
#

ooooooooooooooooh

frail thistle
#

Yeah and what does that get you?

narrow shoal
#

then i do 35% - 20%

#

30%

#

which gives me'

#

5%

#

TYSM!!!!!!!

frail thistle
#

yup!

#

very last step

#

double check what you're scaling Z2 by

#

yes

#

as in the thing you're doing to get the last matrix

#

if you do Z3-1/8Z2, yes

#

pretty sure it's a 3 and not a 2 in the last column

-24/8 = -3

chilly ridge
#

Confused on how to construct the inequality

fervent hawk
#

are those Y_1, Y_2 in the form of mx+c?

chilly ridge
#

Ig?

fervent hawk
#

if not, we can't conclude anything

chilly ridge
#

Must be then

fervent hawk
#

to be honest, i feel weird about this

#

is that the whole context?

chilly ridge
#

Alr how ab this one

chilly ridge
#

Does this make more sense

fervent hawk
chilly ridge
#

Oh alr nice

#

Not to me tho lol

fervent hawk
#

we need to find a range of values for x so that Y1 is greater than Y2

chilly ridge
#

X=6

fervent hawk
#

as you can see from the table top down,
Y1 is increasing, and
Y2 is decreasing

chilly ridge
#

Yeah

fervent hawk
#

so Y1 will increase and increase
and Y2 will decrease and decrease
to a certain point that they reaches the same.

dull fossil
#

Hello

fervent hawk
#

which is exactly at x=5

dull fossil
chilly ridge
dull fossil
#

Okok

#

Casca on guts body wtf

chilly ridge
fervent hawk
# chilly ridge Ok

now that we know
Y1 will keep on increasing, so
after x=5, Y1 will be always > Y2

#

recall, we need a "range of values" for x

chilly ridge
#

Makes sense

fervent hawk
#

so, we need x to be greater than 5 in order to have Y1>Y2

#

how do we write in math symbols

chilly ridge
#

X≥5

fervent hawk
#

careful

#

this is x great than or equal to 5

chilly ridge
#

Not equal to?

#

Okok

#

X>5

fervent hawk
#

yes, lower case

#

anyways

#

do you know what we can't have ≥ ?

chilly ridge
#

So that solves it or is that just part of it

fervent hawk
#

it solves it already

chilly ridge
#

Thanks

fervent hawk
#

because when x=5, Y1=Y2 but not Y1>Y2

#

that's it

chilly ridge
#

Yeah makes sene

fervent hawk
#

@dull fossil your turn

dull fossil
#

Ok so this will be funny

#

We've been simply asked for the x values where y1 is less than y2

chilly ridge
#

Ok

dull fossil
#

Which is clearly visible on graph, red line is always below blue line on the left side of intersection

#

Which is (-3,-2)

#

So for all values from -inf to -3

#

It's y1<y2

#

That's our answer

chilly ridge
#

The answer is -Inf to -3?

dull fossil
#

Yeah, you can enter it as x<-3 or simply (-inf,-3)

chilly ridge
#

Js -3 beyond

dull fossil
#

Yea

chilly ridge
#

Understood tyty

Let a > 0 and b > 0, solve for x.

oh

Mainly the 0.2048

delicate summit

ok so i will do the graph method thanks

lol

Oh huh

#

There is a nice one

#

,w 0.2048 to fraction

clever fjordBOT
void yew
#

They're all rational so I guess you can multiply out by 625 make it into a polynomial equation with integers, then rewrite as q(x) = 0 and use rational roots theorem to check for roots I guess catshrug

#

,calc 16*7

clever fjordBOT
#

Result:

112
void yew
#

Only 112 potential roots to check for with that method bleakkekw

#

But since $1$ is close to being a root

clever fjordBOT
#

992qqoloy

void yew
#

You could start by checking values near 1 I guess

#

And that's how you might get 4/5 within a reasonable amount of effort

#

Oh wait

#

,calc 225*8

clever fjordBOT
#

Result:

160

Actually less than that

okay how do calculate slope of a line

#

when

#

you have 2

#

points

#

of the line

remote token
#

(y-y1)/(x-x1)?

zenith tartan
#

y2-y1/x2-x1 yea

#

so what would be the slope

#

of this line?

remote token
#

(6-1)/(-2-1)=5/-3)=-(5/3)

zenith tartan
#

yes

#

now you have the slope

#

now you can use point slope form of the line

#

to find its

#

equation

#

,, y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

clever fjordBOT
#

!Yajat!

zenith tartan
#

put y1 and x1 the same as you used to find the slo;pe

remote token
#

6-1=(-5/3)(-2-1)?

zenith tartan
#

wait no

#

y and x remains the same

#

you dont need to put anything here

let $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ be the roots of $x^3 - 5x^2 + 5 = 0$
\ Find a polynomial equation with integer coefficients whose roots are $\alpha - 1, \beta - 1, \gamma - 1$

clever fjordBOT
#

魔法の🌙kitty!

mellow knoll
#

surely, theres an easier way than expanding (x-(a-1))(x-(b-1))(x-(y-1))

south plume
#

imagine a graph

mellow knoll
#

imagining a graph

upbeat drum
#

(or vietas formulas)

south plume
#

it's roots are where it intersects 0

mellow knoll
#

mhmm

south plume
#

now, your roots are 1 less theb they were before

wooden python
#

actually there is a clever way that is sort of like expansion and sort of not

south plume
mellow knoll
#

mhm

wooden python
#

$(x - (\alpha-1))(x - (\beta-1))(x - (\gamma-1)) = (x+1 - \alpha)(x+1 - \beta)(x+1 - \gamma)$, so you can get the polynomial you want by replacing all $x$ with $(x+1)$ in your eq

clever fjordBOT
#

AnnGhost

south plume
#

by 1 unit

#

let your initial polynomial be f(x)

#

what you have now is f(x+1)

#

meaning substitute x+1 everywhere x is

south plume
mellow knoll
#

yeah thought so-

#

damn alr yay theres an easy way then

#

i hav a follow-up question with the same eq and roots

#

Find a polynomial equation with integer coefficients whose roots are a^2, b^2, y^2

mellow knoll
south plume
#

i am thinking

#

,w x^3 - 5x^2 + 5=0

south plume
#

ah!

mellow knoll
#

oo

south plume
clever fjordBOT
#

artemetra

mellow knoll
#

huh?

south plume
#

f(sqrt(x)) will give 2 roots and f(-sqrt(x)) will give 1 root

#

no

mellow knoll
#

o btw i hav alrdy got an answer of x^3 - 25x^2 - 50x + 25, i jus wanted an easy way

mellow knoll
south plume
#

okay fair i kinda found that out using desmos just know

#

but

#

the idea is that the inverse of $x^2$ is $\pm \sqrt{x}$

clever fjordBOT
#

artemetra

mellow knoll
#

tru

#

mkkkk fair enough

south plume
#

just like we did before

#

the root is $\alpha - 1 \implies f(x+1)$

clever fjordBOT
#

artemetra

mellow knoll
#

ohhh

south plume
#

because these operations (subtracting one and adding one) are opposite

mellow knoll
#

wait wait so its always the inverse then?

#

that

#

seems abusable

south plume
#

ig

mellow knoll
#

so if the roots were like, a^2 -1
then f(+-sqrt(a+1))?

south plume
#

🤔

#

i.. think so?

mellow knoll
#

🤯

south plume
#

let me check

south plume
#

that's right

mellow knoll
#

woah

south plume
#

honestly

#

i didn't know that either lol

#

thank you!

Could someone explain what constrained cost of construction means?

pastel dew
#

because the constrain is $z=20/xy$

clever fjordBOT
pastel dew
#

however the other options have all three variables used ...so there are not constraint

potent sphinx
#

If one of the other options also had only 2 variables, how would I go about finding the correct one

pastel dew
#

20 is the fixed volume

#

so you would find the correct answer by compute it

potent sphinx
#

How do you know constraint is 20/xy

#

Nvm

#

You just equate xyz=20 and solve for z

tardy lagoon
#

calculate the ratio of the areas

dense moat
#

if you dropped 3 markers onto a circular board with an outer ring making up 48% and 6 inner sections making up the other 52%, how do you calculate the probably of 1 marker landing on the outer section?

tardy lagoon
#

they already gave you the probabilities

#

outer = 48% and inner = 52%

lean willow
#

^

dense moat
#

i thought so, my teacher wants me to use a tree diagram, but that wouldnt figure out the actual chance

tardy lagoon
#

tree diagram works though

dense moat
#

how

tardy lagoon
#

add the probabilities

dense moat
#

wdym

tardy lagoon
#

the tree diagram should have 8 outcomes

#

3 of them have 1 marker landing on the outer section

#

add the probabilities of the 3 outcomes

#

for each outcome, follow their path and multiply the probability

dense moat
#

wouldnt it look like this tho?

tardy lagoon
#

why

#

you reverse the order

dense moat
#

wdym reverse?

tardy lagoon
#

the first column

#

out is on top

#

for the rest in is on top

#

whyy

dense moat
tardy lagoon
#

looks much cleaner

dense moat
#

but anyway, wouldnt it look like that?

tardy lagoon
#

yes

dense moat
#

and when i multiply them i get roughly .11 out of 1

tardy lagoon
#

label the number of marker on outer ring

dense moat
#

wouldnt it be?

dense moat
tardy lagoon
#

for example in,in,in have 0 marker hitting outer ring

#

number of out basically

dense moat
#

i still dont understand

tardy lagoon
#

you have 8 outcomes on the right

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

each representing how the markers could have been

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

we want to calculate probability of 1 marker landing on outer section

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

so first find all the outcomes with 1 marker landing on outer section

dense moat
#

3

tardy lagoon
#

circle them on your diagram

dense moat
#

then entire branch or just the out?

tardy lagoon
#

just the outcome

#

it would be too messy otherwise

dense moat
#

like that?

tardy lagoon
#

good

#

calculate each probability and add them

dense moat
#

0.129792

#

0.129792

#

0.129792

tardy lagoon
#

why decimal lol

dense moat
#

0.389376

#

39%

#

damn i need 48%

#

do i just increase the size of the outer ring until it gets to 48%?

#

chance

tardy lagoon
#

wait

#

you need to adjust the size

#

bruh why didn't you said so earlier

#

set the size of outer ring = p

dense moat
#

because i didnt know it would come to 39%

tardy lagoon
#

ok

#

calculate the probability in terms of p

dense moat
#

p = 48%?

#

or do u mean area wise?

tardy lagoon
#

yeah

#

area of outer ring = p

dense moat
#

p = 942.48cm2

tardy lagoon
#

wait no

dense moat
#

no?

tardy lagoon
#

the precentage I meant

#

percentage of area

dense moat
#

so p = 48% then?

tardy lagoon
#

isn't 48% the result you want?

#

you want the probability of getting 1 marker on outer section = 48%

dense moat
#

yeah

#

but the outer ring is also 48% of the circle

tardy lagoon
#

but I thought you said to adjust the area of outer ring

dense moat
#

yes

#

i did

#

what does p equal then

tardy lagoon
#

ok we don't know what the area is that works

#

so let's set it to p for now

dense moat
#

ok

tardy lagoon
#

or x if you prefer

dense moat
#

idm

tardy lagoon
#

now what's the probability?

#

using the tree diagram

#

in terms of p

#

or x

dense moat
#

0.389376

tardy lagoon
#

no

dense moat
#

?

tardy lagoon
#

that's when p=0.48

dense moat
#

oh ok

#

so then what do i do

tardy lagoon
#

now p is unknown

#

like

#

ok

#

let's me lead you step by step

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

to get 1 marker on outer section

#

we need to have 1 marker on outer and 2 marker on inner

dense moat
#

wait

#

at least 1 on outer

#

sorry i wasnt clear

tardy lagoon
#

.

#

at least one?

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

ok now that's a lot simpler

dense moat
#

and theres need to be a chance of getting at least 1, 48 percent of the time

tardy lagoon
#

ok now

#

we don't want all 3 hit inner section

#

what's the probability of that?

dense moat
#

0.610624 atm

#

?

#

if thats what you mean

tardy lagoon
#

no

#

we want to adjust the area of outer section

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

and we let the area percentage be p for now

#

not 48%

dense moat
#

ok

tardy lagoon
#

actually

#

setting p = area percentage of inner section now it's a lot simpler

tardy lagoon
#

using p

#

it's p^3

dense moat
#

so whats that mean then

tardy lagoon
#

probability of 3 markers hitting inner section

#

= (probability of hitting inner section)^3

#

and we want to find out the probability

#

so we set it to p and solve

dense moat
#

whats ^

tardy lagoon
#

oh

#

$\text{p^3 means} \ p^3$

#

wait

#

why

#

p^3 means

#

$p^3$

clever fjordBOT
#

WhereWolf(ping if needed)

tardy lagoon
#

it

#

it is notation used when typing

dense moat
#

so its the same as p x p x p?

tardy lagoon
#

yes

dense moat
#

oh, thats alot easier then

tardy lagoon
#

we want to let probability of at least 1 marker hitting outer section = 48%

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

how to turn that statement into an equation?

dense moat
#

with only numbers and letters?

#

or words

tardy lagoon
#

yes

#

numbers and letters

#

that's called an equation

dense moat
#

yeah but i meant like what u did earlier

#

(probability of hitting inner section)^3

#

or just like x = 48%?

tardy lagoon
#

we know the probability of all hitting inner section = p^3

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

what about at least one hitting outer section?

#

(they are complementary)

dense moat
#

wdym they are complementary

tardy lagoon
#

complementary means that they are like opposite

#

like in a coin toss

#

head and tails are complementary

#

getting head means not getting tail and not getting tail means getting head

#

in math their probability adds up to 1

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

all inner + at least one outer = 1

#

at least one outer would = ?

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
#

=?

dense moat
#

?

tardy lagoon
#

move all inner to right side

dense moat
#

1 + at least one outer = all inner?

#

or 1 - at least one outer = all inner?

tardy lagoon
#

no

dense moat
#

damn

tardy lagoon
#

we wanta to separate at least one outer

dense moat
#

at least one outer = 1 + all inner?

#

at least one outer = 1 - all inner?

#

still wrong?

tardy lagoon
#

plugging in the values we want

#

48%=1-p^3

#

we just need solve for p

dense moat
#

is it 52%

tardy lagoon
#

p^3=52%

dense moat
#

yeah

#

hang on

#

?

tardy lagoon
#

???

dense moat
#

idk

tardy lagoon
#

if you had 3^p yes

dense moat
#

to undo the ^3

tardy lagoon
#

use the cube root

dense moat
#

this isnt right

#

21.6333076528

#

3.73251116

#

that one?

tardy lagoon
#

?

#

show your work

dense moat
#

3√52

tardy lagoon
#

$\sqrt[3]{0.52}$

#

why

dense moat
#

would this work

clever fjordBOT
#

WhereWolf(ping if needed)

dense moat
#

(-52)^1/3

#

nvm then

#

0.804145152

tardy lagoon
#

yes

#

remember I set p as area percentage inner section

#

wait no

#

ficed it

#

fix

#

what should be the area percentage of outer section?

#

(they are also complement)

dense moat
#

.2 ?

tardy lagoon
#

yeah

dense moat
#

so what does that mean then

tardy lagoon
#

area percentage = 20.5854848%

dense moat
#

yeah

#

but what do i do with that tho

tardy lagoon
#

isn't that what you want

#

oh wait

#

yeah

#

the area percentage of outer section such that the probability of getting at least 1 marker on outer section = 48%

dense moat
#

yeah

tardy lagoon
dense moat
#

how

tardy lagoon
#

review:

#

let p = area precentage of inner section

#

then p^3 = probability of 3 inner markers

#

1-p^3 = probability of at least 1 outer marker

#

=48%

#

solving 1-p^3=48%, we get p = 0.804

#

now 1-p = area percentage of outer section

#

thus we get 0.196

tardy lagoon
dense moat
#

yeah but what is the are percentage for

tardy lagoon
#

that's what you asked for?

#

the size of outer section

dense moat
#

shouldnt it be more tho

#

oh wait hang on

#

so 20% means that theres a 48% chance of at least one hitting

tardy lagoon
#

yes

dense moat
#

wait, how hard is it to calculate just 1 hitting

#

cus idk if i need just 1 or at least 1

tardy lagoon
#

a bit harder

dense moat
#

i think its at least 1

#

maybe

#

do u want the whole question

#

i was tryna shorten it a bit

#

it wont make much of a difference

tardy lagoon
#

sure

dense moat
#

i have to design a board game where you drop 3 markers onto it, the board needs to made up of at least 4 sections. to win you need to get 31 or more points and there needs to be between a 45 and 49% of winning

#

so i thought id make a board where the outer ring is 31 points and the rest were 0 or 1 or smth, and then the outer ring have a 48% of getting hit

tardy lagoon
#

smart

#

at least one is fine

#

the game is super unbalanced though

dense moat
#

?

#

wdym

tardy lagoon
#

nothing

dense moat
#

all i care about is the 48% chance

#

so then 20 is fine then

tardy lagoon
#

yep

I'm unable see any factoring trick over here

my best guess is that limit is dne as we get different limits over different paths

#

can you help?

i'm not much aware to show it here formally, can you help me relate to a multivariable limit case?

say I choose path along x- axis, y=0

#

what changes should I make here?

how did limit change to 0?

as in x to zero?

along y=0, there no variable y plug tho

what do you mean y=0?

spark cargo
leaden karma
#

yes

#

so

spark cargo
leaden karma
#

the point 0+2i does not lie on y=0

#

you need to choose a path on which the point actually lies

spark cargo
#

right

#

makes sense

#

i can choose x=0

leaden karma
#

yep

spark cargo
#

y=x+2?

#

the second path

#

i can just write cartesian equation without worrying complex right?

ok so i have a cubic equation f(x) = 2x³ - dx² + (1-d²)x + 5, and obviously there is a parameter there. Additionally i have been told that it is divisible by x - d. Except I have run into an issue involving the number left over after horner's method: I have solved it to (x-d)(2x²+dx+1) but still have d+5 left over, what do i do with it that d+5?

yes

#

i am being asked to find d

ember oak
opaque spindle
#

-5

#

and i am pretty certain d+5 is correct since i plugged d into the original function and it came out as d+5

#

but im uncertain if -5 is enough?

ember oak
#

it is

opaque spindle
#

isnt a parameter ususally something like 5 < d < 14?

ember oak
#

Sure. $5\le d \le 5$

If you insist on it being an interval

opaque spindle
#

if you insist that it's okay then i will accept

#

thanks for the help

ember oak
#

d=-5 is what you want

Would anyone be able to do more of a tutoring session over the Delta Method for statistics? I have a couple of problems that I am trying to work out with the notes from class, but I am having a hard time thinking of physical steps to solving the equations.

the Last part in the IMPORTANT box are the questions, but I am more wanting an outline as to how to go about solving them. Even if I can get help solving the first one and then I can try the other two on my own... But I have to use the Delta Method to solve them.

#

thank you

Could someone help me with this dealing with complex numbers? I have the solutions but don't understand the steps.

what are the solutions of: z^3=27

Specficially could you help explain this " We know that the argument of z^3 is 3(theta). since z^3 = 27, we know that its argument is 0"

wary notch
#

Oh

#

Sorry

rigid dragon
#

I don’t see how it’s insufficient, can’t you just use the lengths to form a right triangle then you can use Pythagorean theorem

wary notch
#

Oh

#

Uh

#

Thank you

#

Lemme try doing that

rigid dragon
#

Like view it as a rectangle with a triangle on top

wary notch
#

Okay
