desert marlin
#

of course

twin urchin
#

With 2 variabkes

#

And like

desert marlin
#

you can draw a nice picture

twin urchin
#

A level curve instead of a level surface

desert marlin
#

yes

twin urchin
#

So in the case of 2 variables

#

My r(t) is just my level curve

#

But in 3 variables

#

R(t) is a path on my level surface right?

desert marlin
#

I'm not entirely sure what you are asking me about since it isn;t clear what r(t) and R(t) are. This example I gave works as a proof in higher or lower dimensions is you just augment it correctly

twin urchin
#

lemme explain

#

r(t) is a vector valued function

#

Imagine we have a function of F(x,y) = K

#

essentially

#

imagine the horizontal trace of F(x,y) when z=k

#

now imagine if I were to find all the x and y values

#

that will lead to z=k

#

and were to plot those x/y values on thet xy plane

#

and then parametrize that path

desert marlin
twin urchin
#

Correct

#

and then parametrize that path with a vector valued function r(t) = <x(t),y(t)>

#

Therefore

#

F(r(t))=k

#

d/dt F(r(t)) = d/dt k = 0

#

Therefore

#

Lambda F dot r'(t) = 0

#

therefore Lambda F is orthogonal to r'(t)

#

and r'(t) is a tangent vector to r(t)

#

therefore Lambda F is Orthogonal to r(t)

#

aka the level curve

desert marlin
#

it is any path, not a specific path. the part where you are saying where z=k etc... and introducing the z is unnecessary and confusing. But any path along the level surface, F(x,y)=k, the rest of the proof follows from

#

but yes

twin urchin
#

got it

#

ty

#

wait

#

it should be a specific path

#

not any path

#

it should be the path such that F(r(t)) = k

desert marlin
#

r(t) is just a parametrization of a curve on your level surface

#

there are many such curves

twin urchin
#

no im talking in 2 variable

#

so you mean level curve

#

not level surface right

desert marlin
#

imagine your level surface is a cross section of some sphere

#

right

twin urchin
#

Level surfaces are F(x,y,z) = K Level Curve = F(x,y) = k

desert marlin
#

okay yes I mean level curve then

twin urchin
#

kk

#

Ah yes

desert marlin
#

imagine your level surface is a cross section of some sphere

twin urchin
#

I see what u are saying

desert marlin
#

okay

twin urchin
#

k can be anything

#

"K"

#

therefore

#

any path exists

desert marlin
#

there are many paths along that circle

twin urchin
#

yes

desert marlin
#

and along all of them

twin urchin
#

its not specific

desert marlin
#

the value is still K

twin urchin
#

its technically all of them

desert marlin
#

technically any of them

twin urchin
#

Well if I am finding the gradient

#

at a specific point

#

the gradient is normal to the level curve of F(a,b) = k

#

at (a,b)

desert marlin
#

this was just a proof of why the gradient is normal to your level curve at any point

twin urchin
#

yea

#

i think i get it

#

i appreciate your help

desert marlin
#

likely you can find a youtube video with like some illustrations

#

no problem

twin urchin
#

have a good day

covert mortar
#

what is the probability of getting silvers diagonally in a 3x3 cube if the format from left to right and top to bottom is:

left/top: blue, silver, green
Middle: silver, white, red
Bottom: green, silver, blue

You are allowed to rearrange silver but only in its row

the answer is 1/27 apparently but I dont know how to find it out

stone mountain
#

Use favourable outcomes/ total number of possible outcomes

#

Firstly calculate the number of formations possible

#

Then the number of formations in which the sliver blocks are diagonally placed

covert mortar
#

so 27 total outcomes?

stone mountain
#

Nah

covert mortar
#

and there are 2 outcomes where silver can be placed diagonally

#

o

stone mountain
#

No

#

Think again properly

#

You have any idea about permutations?

covert mortar
#

9 outcomes?

#

nopee

#

year 10 probability rn

#

would it be using a diagram?

#

like tree diagram or two-way table for example

#

<@&286206848099549185>

odd edgeBOT
#

@covert mortar Has your question been resolved?

stone mountain
# covert mortar 9 outcomes?

Nah each row can have 6 different sets of formation like for first row it can be B S G , G S B , B G S , G B S , S G B , S B G . Likewise the other 2 rows have 6 different sets of formations too , so total number of formations will be 6×6×6 = 216

#

Now using this same way calculate the formations in which silvers are placed diagonally

covert mortar
#

hmm

#

do the rows have to be all silver?

#

or just one silver

stone mountain
#

Each row has only one silver

covert mortar
#

for one diagonal there would be 3 so then is it 3x3?

stone mountain
#

You have to place the silvers in such a way that they are diagonal

covert mortar
#

S B G
B S G
B G S

#

like this?

stone mountain
#

More formations are possible for this diagonal formation

#

Like in the first row if you exchange B and G you will get a new formation

covert mortar
#

OHH

stone mountain
#

For this , ignore the S and see the number of sets of formations possible for each row

covert mortar
#

2x2x2?

stone mountain
#

In this case it will be 2

#

Yeah

covert mortar
#

what if the S is on the other diagonal?

stone mountain
#

So 8

#

The same thing

covert mortar
#

so would it be 8/216 or 16/216?

stone mountain
#

You will have to add those formations to these

covert mortar
#

so 8/216 + 8/216?

#

which is 2/27

#

would that be correct because the person who made the question said it was 1/27

#

but a lot of people got 2/27

stone mountain
#

Yeah I think so ,it's an error in the answer probably

#

1/27 will be only if you count the probability for one diagonal

#

For both it will be 2/27

#

As there can be 2 diagonals

covert mortar
#

yeah okay thank you so much

#

I have couple questions about the equation

#

first, is it true?

#

second, is it able to consider it metaphorically? and how?

late pawn
#

well when your taking the absolute value of a+b, what if b is negative,

#

plug in 1 for a and -1 for b, see where that gets you

#

they cover some of the proofs better than I could

elder vault
#

like two forces in real life

#

for these two forces n and s went for diffrent directions

late pawn
#

well forces have direction and magnitude so you can represent them as vectors right? if you think about the triangles that they show in the stackexchange as 2 vectors instead

elder vault
#

given Z are complex number

viral frost
#

This is the same.

elder vault
#

on the complex plane?

late pawn
#

whats the problem asking?

viral frost
#

You can consider them to be vectors with 2 dimensions.

elder vault
late pawn
elder vault
# elder vault

im now having a confusion sit in my mind

IF two vectors, in a plane, was in the same quadrant then the two sides are equivalent, I suppose?

late pawn
#

well it shouldnt matter if they are in the same quadrent, as magnitude is magnitude no matter what

elder vault
elder vault
elder vault
late pawn
#

they should only be equivalent when the vectors are pointing in the same direction

thorny otter
#

What is meant here by “in the domain”

leaden widget
#

you know what a domain is right?

thorny otter
#

Yes

glass wedge
#

Just means a point in the domain of the functions

#

Not a point where one of them is not defined

thorny otter
#

But would a regular singular point be in the domain of a function ?

thorny otter
glass wedge
#

I dont see what you mean

#

Of course a function is defined in a point

#

Is y=x defined in the point x0=2

leaden widget
#

i guess an element in the set of the domain is just the x part, the abscissa not a whole point (x,y), if that is the point (pun intended) you are trying to make

thorny otter
#

Let’s say, For a series solution about X=0 where we can prove x=0 is a regular singular point, would we exclude this point from the domain we are speaking about here ?

#

Maybe I’m not phrasing my question correctly sorry

leaden widget
#

still confused by what exactly you are asking, but I do think they shouldn't be saying "for some point x_0 in the domain." the domain is not a set of points if they're talking about a single variable function. they should just say "for some x_0 in the domain" i guess

thorny otter
#

Let me try add more context

#

So here, we are asked to find two independent solutions which I find to be x and x^(1/3). But the Wronskian of these will be 0 for x=0. What I’m wondering is as I have proved that x=0 is a singular point, can I exclude from the domain we are looking in the wronskian

#

@leaden widget hope that makes more sense

#

Thus proving the solutions would be linearly independent

leaden widget
thorny otter
#

No worries, I appreciate your time though!

<@&286206848099549185> Could anyone confirm or have any input to my post above? Thanks!

tall veldt
#

x0 is just a point for which the wronskian is defined

thorny otter
#

Yes where x0 is part of the Domain of the function

#

would 0 be excluded from the domain of my ode though as X=0 is a singular point ?

tall veldt
#

If your f or g aren't differentiable at 0 then yes you would exclude it as you can't define the wronskian at 0

thorny otter
#

So the solutions I got from the above ODE by the series method were X and X^{1/3}, excuse my hand writing but here is a quick calculation for the wronskian, if it was for any X, then we would get a wronskian = 0 for X = 0 which would mean my solutions were not linearly independent, but I am trying to prove they are linearly independent. Which is why when the ODE is in its general form we get a singularity at X=0 due to P(x) and Q(x) being undefiend for this value of X

#

@tall veldt Due to the above, can I make the statement that the wronskain is !=0 for any X != 0, thus proving my solutions are linearly independent?

tall veldt
#

You only need to find one point that makes the wronskian non zero to conclude they are independent

#

That's what your theorem says

#

It does not say that if you find a point that makes the wronskian zero then the functions are dependent

thorny otter
#

oh wait, I may have tagged the wrong image

#

I beleive this proposition reflects what I am working with.

tall veldt
#

You want to use proposition 1

#

If you are trying to show they are independent

#

Prop 2 is not an if and only if, its just a test for dependence

thorny otter
#

But f and g are solutions to the ode that I am using in the wronskian

#

shouldnt I still be able to show independance by here by being able to say that for any point in the domain they are non zero

tall veldt
#

Okay but prop 2 will never tell you if two functions are independent

thorny otter
#

oh I think I get you

#

Yes of course

tall veldt
#

You found a point that makes the wronskian non zero

#

(Infinitely many in fact but you only needed one)

thorny otter
#

that point just happen to be any point !=0

tall veldt
#

Yes

thorny otter
#

So I am okay to label f and g as f(x) = x and g(x) = x^1/3 and say that their W(x) is !=0 for x=1, as a conclusion

tall veldt
#

Yeah

thorny otter

if you're ever interested in learning more about them, they're extremely fast operations! They also help with bit masking n' whatnot. For example you can have a function that returns all lowercase letters by bitwise OR'ing your 32 bit character with a binary value

limber cloak
#

Let R, r ∈ ℝ with R > r > 0. Consider the circle with center (R, 0, 0) and radius r in the xz-plane, and rotate it around the z-axis. This results in the so-called torus T = {(x, y, z) ∈ ℝ³ : (R² − r² + z²)² + (x² + y²)² + 2(x² + y²)(z² − (R² + r²)) = 0}.

limber cloak
#

Do they want me to brute force this?

#

Sorry this is not the whole task

stone cipher
#

what's the question

limber cloak
#

I need to show that the equation is 0

#

By using the sphere coordinstes i guess. The are something like

#

Wsit

stone cipher
#

??

limber cloak
#

X=R+rcos(psi)*cos(theta)

#

Do i just brute force it by replacing c y and z

#

Bc that gets pretty complicated and maybe theres a trick

#

| (R + r * cos(ψ)) * cos(φ) |
| (R + r * cos(ψ)) * sin(φ) |
| r * sin(ψ) |

#

I have no idea how to format this

#

These sre the spherical coordinstes for s torus

#

Now if i wsnt to show that the above equation is 0 i could probably replace the x y and z by the spherical coordinates. That would get very ugly tho and i dont think that thats the best way

Well i guess im gonna try to brutefroce this.

find extrema of f=x^2 + y^2 + z^2 but 2xy + z^2 = 5

mystic saffron
#

my argument was that bc f was constant at the constraint, there are no extrema

odd edgeBOT
#

@mystic saffron Has your question been resolved?

odd edgeBOT
#

@mystic saffron Has your question been resolved?

stone cipher
#

it's not constant all along the constraint surely

#

i mean the way you're meant to do it is obviously gonna be

#

$x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = x^2 + y^2 + 5 - 2xy$

<@&286206848099549185>

ionic heart
#

What's the issue

#

Surface area is basically sum of areas of all the faces in the figure

west zenith
#

he said that he needs the total surface area so that shpuld mean every face added up

ionic heart
#

If you have a cuboid, then surface area is the sum of the 4 rectangular faces and the 2 square faces

#

yeah

west zenith
#

i cant explain it cause i kind of forgot this

ionic heart
#

If you have a cuboid

#

Then select every face 1 by 1

#

Get their areas

Sum it up

sick sigil
odd edgeBOT
sick sigil
#

Where did this term appear from?

#

So context; the video is about partial antiderivatives

glass wedge
#

integration by parts of 2te^tdt

hard field
sick sigil
#

Uhhh

#

But isn’t the right hand side still on the right hand side??

#

To me it looks that way

hard field
#

yes

sick sigil
#

Like if i look at the line above

hard field
#

they are dealing with the rhs there

sick sigil
#

But doesn’t the - / (-2)e^t become the +2e^t on the line below??

leaden widget
#

honestly it's mostly confusing because whoever was writing that work did a sub of t = cos x (commonly known as u-sub) and then doing integration by parts at almost same time without writing much work

hard field
#

then they evaluate it on the same line

#

they have just wrote it in a confusing way

sick sigil
#

o_O

#

Sorry mate im completely lost

leaden widget
#

try to rewrite it and write down more of the intermediate steps, i hope this isnt your teacher working stuff on the board cause then they are doing a great job presenting it in a confusing way

sick sigil
#

If they wrote it in a confusing way could you write What happens between

#

The line above the one i marked

#

I was gonna write the equation out but then i remembered that im on my phone😝

leaden widget
#

so youre familiar with integration by parts right?

#

or sometimes it's written with f(x), g(x) instead of u, v

sick sigil
#

uhhhh i am not familiar with that

#

Like what I’ve learned is

#

Imma use ”/” for integral btw

#

/f(x)*g(x) dx = F(x)*g(x) - /F(x)*g’(x) dx

#

Where F is the antiderivative of f

#

So it does kind of look the same But..

leaden widget
#

well if you are not familiar with integration by parts then go watch a lecture on it, not going to teach you that in a chat tbh

glass wedge
sick sigil
#

But the integration by parts video that our teacher made is literally the thing i wrote :p

#

That’s why im confused with the thing you sent

glass wedge
#

its the same thing

sick sigil
#

Perhaps it’s just different notation

#

Yeah that’s What im thinking too

leaden widget
#

here is version with f(x) and g(x) since thats what your teacher is using

sick sigil
#

Ah Yeah exactly

#

But the issue is that I just don’t see where the term came from because to me that term is on the right hand side and then out of nowhere it’s moved to the left while still staying on the right

leaden widget
#

well it also doesn't help they wrote the f(t) and g(t) backwards i think

sick sigil
#

No it indeed does not

#

I think the idea is that they want to make it easier BUT its literally the opposite

leaden widget
#

so what its supposed to be is

#

$$f(t)=-2t$$
$$g'(t)=e^t,dt$$

sick sigil
#

Wait

#

I think i MIGHT see the issue

clever fjordBOT
sick sigil
#

And now i understand What the other person meant

leaden widget
#

ok, well can you follow along for a sec, ill work it through step by step

sick sigil
#

Is he not just doing the right hand side only on that line for no reason at all😭

leaden widget
#

so you see now we have
$\int-2te^t,dt =\int f(t)g'(t)$

sick sigil
#

and yes i will🥺❤️❤️

clever fjordBOT
leaden widget
#

right?

sick sigil
#

Sure

leaden widget
#

ok now we integrate g' to get g, and its just $g=e^t$

clever fjordBOT
sick sigil
#

Yes

leaden widget
#

so now using the integration by parts we can rewrite the integral with the formula:

#

$\int f(t)g'(t) = f(t)g(t) -\int g(t)f'(t)$

clever fjordBOT
leaden widget
#

the left side is just what we start with so we get:

#

oh and f' = -2dt since we are just getting the differential of f = -2t

#

so we have

#

$\int -2te^t,dt= (-2t)(e^t) - \int (e^t)(-2,dt)$

clever fjordBOT
leaden widget
#

i wrote each of the quantities in parenthesis we are substituting for clarity

sick sigil
#

Thank you🥹

leaden widget
#

plz check my work that i am not making mistakes \ following so far?

sick sigil
#

I do not believe so

leaden widget
#

ok so now we pretty much get what the underlined part in red is in your original question, your teacher just skipped various steps like multiplying the negative sign, didnt even show work for integrating g' and taking derivative of f on the side, which is just horrible way to teach partial derivatives for the first time to someone

sick sigil
#

But i will definitely put more time into this to get a better understanding

#

With that said

#

Partial functions

#

Anti derivatives

#

Integrals

leaden widget
#

$\int -2te^t,dt = -2te^t +2\int e^t,dt$

clever fjordBOT
leaden widget
#

so see we got exactly this

sick sigil
#

Are these different words that mean the same thing or am i in the wrong there?

leaden widget
#

kind of...
well computing the anti derivative is defined as the basically the reverse operation of computing the derivative
computing integrals is defined as calculating the area under a curve using riemann sums
it TURNS OUT AFTER defining them in this way that basically you CAN use antiderivatives to calculate integrals and they are basically equivalent, but this is not obvious at first since you start defining them in completely different ways
the idea that integrals are essentially equivalent to antiderivatives is what is being said in the fundamental theorems of calculus

sick sigil
#

Got it. That’s one of the things that really confused me as well during the lectures

#

Thank you so much for the help

#

Wish you the best of days!!❤️❤️

thanks, you as well : )

0^0 = 1

naive yarrow
#

The integralgraph, the tangent in P(-2,f(-2)) and the y axis makes a group of points and i need to calculate the exact area of it

so i need to calculate the area highlighted here... so its area under graph from x=-2 to x=0, but its also only from y=1 and up till the graph hits the yaxis in (0,26.56)

#

waittttt

#

the tangent

#

so its a triangle

#

i made wrong depiction of area i think

forest sky
#

generally if you have an area that's bounded above by f(x) and below by g(x), then the total area is given by integral of (f(x) - g(x))

naive yarrow
#

yeeee

#

i think i read task wrong

#

lemme try plot the graph again

#

so the tangent in point (-2,f(-2)) is x+3 so i think the area i need to calculate is the one below the blue line?? or the one above?

#

so this area

#

where the blue line is tangent line

#

and the green is integral curve

#

where f(x) is integral curve and g(x) is tangent?

#

i think thats correct

#

if anyone can confirm?? 😦

#

xdxdxd

#

who emoted

#

🤓

#

seems correct ill just hope it is and pray

1,

livid storm
#

You know how to find the sides in function of C? (x and y)

#

Its on the image

#

even

#

A(x,y) = x*y

craggy leaf
#

hmmm..

#

i think i know how to solve for x and y?

#

is it just pythagroeam theorm?

livid storm
#

No

#

You know that 3x+2y = 12

craggy leaf
#

ye.

livid storm
#

You can turn A(x,y) into a one variable function

craggy leaf
#

ooooh thats write thats write

#

so like y= -2/3x+17/3

#

right?

#

and i can plug that into another formula?

livid storm
#

where did the 17 come from

craggy leaf
#

OH

#

sorry 12

#

so 4

livid storm
#

why -2/3?

craggy leaf
#

i subtracted 2 on both sides

#

and divided by 3

#

to isolate the y

livid storm
#

good

livid storm
craggy leaf
#

can i plug it into the formula for a area of a rectangle?

livid storm
#

yes

wind yew
#

just plug it in x*y

craggy leaf
#

hmm..... but honestly

#

ye i was thinking of doing that at first

#

but what was tripping me up

#

was like how do i know if its like the max

wind yew
#

do you know how to find the max/min of a square function

livid storm
#

a single variable function

#

You know how to maximize / minimize these

craggy leaf
#

you make it

#

=0 and find derivative right?

livid storm
#

Almost

#

right

craggy leaf
#

hmm......

wind yew
#

you already have the function for the area, after substituting y

#

then you get a square function for the area

#

in terms of x

#

after you get that function, do you know how to find the min or max of it?

craggy leaf
#

i found the derivaitve of the function that was in terms of x

#

and made it =0

#

and found x

livid storm
#

good

craggy leaf
#

Here was my work

livid storm
#

Write A(x) instead of A

#

Write A'(x), then write A'(x) = 0

#

It's not clear what you did on step 3

#

I know you did that, but assume your reader doesn't

craggy leaf
#

oooo okay okay i fixed that

#

thanks

#

and then i can plug x back into the equation?

#

to find y?

livid storm
#

Yes

craggy leaf
#

hmm.. but like

#

how do i know thats the max value?

#

cuz i did the derivative twice

#

and the second derivative was a -

#

OH

#

that means its the max

#

ooooo okay okay

#

i think i got it

livid storm
#

Yeah

vital rivet
#

I need quick help understanding what this question means when it says units. Does it mean what the x and y are (minutes, calories) or does it mean the parts of the calculation for the constant rate?

vital rivet
#

I'm just a little lost as to what it means tbh. I understand the rest of it. Does it mean the ratio between changes?

wind yew
#

rate of change is like speed to distance, meaning that you go x meters for y seconds, the unit would be m/s

#

so if you lose calories for a certain amount of minutes the unit for the ratio would be?

vital rivet
#

m/c (minutes/calories) correct?

wind yew
#

you dont burn minutes but calories, the thing that changes is above, and the thing that causes the change is below

#

so you dont say i burn 5 minutes for every calorie, but you say...

Ok yeah, makes sense. I got it mixed up a bit cause you have your x as the dependent and the y and the independent and I have it the other way around.

#

This was how I got it lol
So yeah it would be
c/m or calories over minutes since you burn so many calories per minute.

yep

vital rivet
#

Awesome thanks for the help with that. I was just missing that cause we barely focused on that in class so I forgot about worrying about what the full unit is.

#

how we suppose to help if u don't post the question 🤦‍♂️

mystic saffron
#

ion know

#

it wont let me😭

cold sage
#

how so?

mystic saffron
#

ion know it wont let me do it

#

says try again later

cold sage
#

you trying to send an image?

median cedar
#

do you have a stable internet

mystic saffron
#

yeahh

#

it like says it wont go through

median cedar
#

type out the question then

mystic saffron
#

ok

#

Emily tried to evaluate an expression. Here is her work:
24+(11+13)–(1+5)÷23

24+24–6÷23 Step 1

16+24–6÷23 Step 2

16+24–33 Step 3

16+24–9 Step 4

40–9 Step 5

31 Step 6
Is Emily's work correct?

#

thats the question

#

then the asnwers are like

#

idk the answers

#

..

median cedar
#

in step two how did 24+24 change into 16+24

cold sage
#

mhm

#

also did 6/23=33

mystic saffron
#

uh idk

worthy raptor
#

How did -6÷23 turn into -33

median cedar
#

lmao

#

so it isnt correct??

#

its pretty obvious

mystic saffron
#

IDK BRO ITS IXL

worthy raptor
cold sage
#

emily was high when they wrote that

mystic saffron
#

bru its ixl this shit is ass

worthy raptor
#

Do you just say Emily is wrong

#

What are the answers

cold sage
#

probably say theyre wrong and why

raw palm
#

idk how emily survived till now tbh

cold sage
#

she mustve used chatgpt

#

poor behavior

raw palm
#

maybe chatgpt started to make errors when emily sent this to it

#

it had to adapt

cold sage
#

son of a gun it got it right

#

this might be on emily then

raw palm

young sedge
#

how do i find the equation of the asymptote

dense sonnet
#

what value does f(x) never touch/reach

stone cipher
#

do you know what an asymptote is

young sedge
#

i know what a vertical and horizontal asymptote is

stone cipher
#

ok

#

what are they

young sedge
#

ik you find the va by setting the denominator equal to 0 and ha by comparing the degree of the num with the denom

stone cipher
#

ok

#

but do you know what they are

young sedge
#

no

stone cipher
#

lol ok one sec

young sedge
#

right

#

i know that already

stone cipher
#

horizontal asymptote at y = 5

#

horizontal asymptotes at y = pi/2, y = -pi/2

#

horizontal asymptote at y = 1

#

vertical asymptote at x = -3

#

vertical asymptote at x = 2

young sedge
#

looks like it's 0

stone cipher
#

no asymptotes

stone cipher
young sedge
#

but how do i prove that

#

is what im asking

stone cipher
#

oh, you have to prove it?

young sedge
#

no like

#

how do i get to 0 without the graph

#

and not just by looking at it

stone cipher
#

i mean the easiest way to do it is definitely with the graph but ok ok ok

#

so essentially what is an asymptote in words, well

young sedge
#

this isnt like x+2/x-2 this is with an exponent subtracting something

#

which is why i dont know what to do

stone cipher
#

a horizontal asymptote at infinity is when, as x gets closer and closer to infinity, the function gets closer and closer to something

#

arbitrarily close

#

and similarly a horizontal asymptote at -infinity is when, as x gets closer and closer to -infinity, more and more left, the function gets closer and closer to something

#

so in this case there's a horizontal asymptote at 0

#

as x -> -infinity

#

so you want to show that e^(x-4) gets arbitrarily close to 0 as x goes to -infinity

#

but it's like

#

it just does

#

like, e^x when x is really large and negative is just really close to 0

young sedge
#

okay well what if we had 5^(x-2) for example

stone cipher
#

right so basically all exponential things will get closer and closer to 0 in the same way

#

it's just like

young sedge
#

it just is 0

stone cipher
#

you can sorta see a pattern

young sedge
#

well i understand that it's a shift

stone cipher
#

i mean i can prove that e^x goes to 0 as x goes to -inf if you want

#

if you're not satisfied

young sedge
#

well this is pre-calc but am i supposed to find the asymptote just by looking at the graph?

stone cipher
#

yes

young sedge
#

what if my asymptote was fractional

stone cipher
#

at this level you're just supposed to go 'yeah the graph basically looks like that'

#

'it's gotta be true'

#

and not worry too much about proving it

stone cipher
young sedge
#

what if i had like 5/7

#

as my asym

stone cipher
#

??

#

like

young sedge
#

and not 0

#

or 2/7

stone cipher
#

like this?

young sedge
#

it just looks like its really close to 0

#

hm okay i guess im asking if there's a way to find the asymptote the same way we would do with (x+3)/(x-1)

#

like do we flip anything or invert anything

#

with e^(x-4)

stone cipher
#

not exactly

#

you just sorta go

#

'e^x goes to 0 when x is negative and very large'

#

'so e^(x-4) does as well'

young sedge
#

damn i just have to hope im right i guess?

stone cipher
#

yeah i mean

#

you gotta trust the graph ig lol idk

#

i mean again i can just prove that e^x goes to 0 when x is very large and negative, if that would help?

young sedge
#

is that within pre-calc

stone cipher
#

sooorta not really

#

like it's pretty obvious

#

one way to think about it is

#

to go 1 unit left with e^x

#

you have to divide by e

young sedge
#

someone told me pre-calc is just doing things and calc is explaining why those things are true

stone cipher
#

so to go to -infinity then you have to keep dividing by e over and over and over

#

so the thing will always get very small

#

and close to 0

stone cipher
young sedge
stone cipher
#

yes

young sedge
#

that makes sense

#

thanks for all the help

#

Shouldn’t the integral in this problem run from 1 to Z ?

#

Not Z to 1?

stone cipher
#

no

#

it's P(Y > Z/X)

#

so it's from Z/X to 1

torpid ginkgo
#

But the values of x

stone cipher
#

like, Z should be less than 1 right

torpid ginkgo
#

Like I graphed it in demos where z = 2

stone cipher
#

?

#

how can Z be 2

torpid ginkgo
#

Oh

#

Good point

#

It’s backwards

#

ok ok

placid fulcrum

placid fulcrum
#

honestly have like no idea how to do it

#

ik the formula but idk what half life means

forest sky
#

a half-life is the time period it takes for half of the element to decay

placid fulcrum
#

is full life just 2 times it?

forest sky
#

no, it's an exponential decay

#

the rate of decay changes over time

placid fulcrum
#

is the formula Q(t)=Qo(r)^t/T?

#

cs im not sure how to find the rate with the information given

forest sky
#

use the fact that by the definition of the half-life, at
t = the half-life, Q = 1/2 * initial mass

elder inlet

I need help with simple Harmonic motion.
Here's the problem
y=-0.25 cos(1.5t - Pi/3)

i figured out how to do problems where their's usually nothing after t. but now their's this - pi/3 thing after t and i'm lost.

nocturne belfry
#

its a translated problem

#

you might try something like... x=1.5t - pi/3

#

then solve y = -0.5 cos(x)

#

"solve"

#

its still not really clear to me exactly what the problem is

#

so maybe this wont help

#

i guess yea what do you mean solve hmmCat

#

whats the problem?

elder inlet
#

the exercise wants me to find the amp, period and frequency of the motion than sketch it.
