As 1
To 101
So my q becomes
Summation of case of
I+j=1 ,2....101
But permuting these would be extremely problematic xD
yall are way too smart tbh
The only reason this q is problematic is because u want a general solution xD
I cant simply multiply the cases bt 3 because we will overcount every single number divisible by 3 twice
And every odd number n-1/2 times
Oh dear

A diff approach then
@civic citrus if this is for a program, we can solve it
that's fair
it's probably a lost cause then
thanks so much for trying though 
have a nice day!

✅
sum_{i=0}^{101} (min(101,N-i)+1-max(N-i-101,0)) works if you can input a sum
@civic citrus
Also your number of pairs here is flawed
Unless the bounds are actually 0 and 100, inclusive
would this be the solution for between 101 and 202?
or would this just generally work?
Hold on
cus it starts giving negative results somewhere along the way, outside of that range
which def seems weird
So if i,j,k are in [0,B], then it works when N is in [B-2,2B+2]
Yeah you wanted it to work until 3B huh
For rest of the cases normal beggars works lol
From 2b+2 to 3b
Its 3b-n+2c2
For before b-2 its n+2c2
(conceptually it should be [B,2B] but it also works for the boundaries)
These work till n =B
(3*101-N+2) choose 2, yeah
Parentheses are kind of important here
Ig
I'm really new to this stuff, so I was also kind of confused just now
I get this from pnc
You elements must sum to N
So i+j+k=n
All solution of this
Is a triplet
Basically for n from 202 to 303
This is the number
If you want to know how i get this i can tell

I need help with this I dont understand graphing
expand the function
and express in y=mx+c
if m>0 answer is C
if m<0 answer is A/B
then u need to look at y-intercept
@weary jolt Has your question been resolved?

✅
for this lazy way
do x= 0 and get y-intercept
for this part try to remember what y=x and y=-x looklike
i dont get it
u know what y-intercept is?
when x = 0 u got y-intercept from question
when y =0 u also got x-intercept
then u dot the point on the graph
y-intercept should be (0,x)
x-intercept (x,0)
this hurts my head i dont understand
its education plan or english program?

In a certain region of the country it is known from past experience that the probability of selecting an adult over 40 years of age with cancer is 0.05. If the probability of a doctor correctly diagnosing a person with cancer as having the disease is 0.78 and the probability of incorrectly diagnosing a person without cancer as having the disease is 0.06, what is the probability that an adult over 40 years of age is diagnosed as having cancer?
from what i would think to do, i would use the total probability
$$P(A) = \sum_{i=1}^{k} P(B_i)P(A|B_i)$$

so they gave us this definition
what exactly is Zm
[1]
would be the
every element which remainder is 1?
[1]m is a set itself?
is this an equivalence class or do i mix stuff up?
Yes you put a relation on integers
how would this set be defined
hm why
They belong to the same equivalent class which we’ll call [1]
if and only if
Yeah
why you define it as subtraction from 2 elements
and not just one
why cant is say
n | a
By this you mean every integer a,b s.t b-a is divisible by n and 1 is in here.
Then it’s in the set 1
I mean then what you’d just partition integers into 2 sets
One set contains all multiple of n
The other set contains all other number
How’d u define this relation anyway?
ah ok
Right
you kinda need 2 numbers because youll define a relation on them
a ~ b := n | a-b
Mhm
[a] = {z ∈ Z| m|(z − a)} = {z ∈ Z|∃k ∈ Z : z − a = k · m}
given that
m | (z-a)
m divides (z-a)
Correct
z-a is a multiple of m
jeah
so if m is 2
if i can divide z -a by 2
i can divide it by 4
aswell
so when i have [2]_3
[2, ,5, 8, 11 ,...]
here for example
i can do 2x3 where k =2 m=3
and 6 | 8 with rest 2
remainder 2
just brainstorming what this means: {z ∈ Z|∃k ∈ Z : z − a = k · m} given {z ∈ Z| m|(z − a)}
They’re equivalent statement
If m divides z-a
Then z-a can be written as a multiple of m
ie z-a = mk for some integer k
oh makes sense
and
when i have 2 of those equivalence classes
the addition is defined like that
but would i take every elements of one equivalence class and add it to the element of the other equivalence classß
e.g.
Z4
[0]_4 = {0, 4, 8, 16, ...}
It would but really when you think about operation in modulo you don’t really think in terms of equivalent classes
In the same way that when we think about integers we don’t think about the quotient of natural numbers
[1]_4 = {1, 5, 9, 17}
Adding this two will give you [1]
why?
[0]_4 + [1]_4 = {1, 9, 17, 33}
33:4
32 r 1
jeah true
lol
so [0]_4 is the neutral element in this group?
It’ll literally gives back [1]
Well no exactly but u can think of it that way
Take one element in [0] add to every element in [1]
Repeat for every element in [0]
Well this will still give you [1]
{0+1, 0+5, 0+9, 0+17, 4+1, 4+5, 4+9, 4+17, 8+1,.....}
like this?
how should i know out of this definition
But if I recall correctly we can just define [x] + [y] to be we pick any element in x and y add them and see what mod it is and call it [c]
m| s - a and m| t-b means m | s+t-a-b
So s+t ~ (a+b)
ie. s+t belongs in [a+b]

pls ping me when reply, i dont use discord often and i only get notified when pinged
@vale horizon Has your question been resolved?
<@&286206848099549185> sry for the mention but it said i could ping after 15 mins
what the problem ?
tysm
can you show how you did it pls
here is okay, thanks
okay
also brb sorry gime like 5 mins
dw
thats finding the upper bound
so any value of D less than that will yeild a rate less than 200cm^2/min
theres the second half of the working
hope this helps @vale horizon
whatd you do over here?
oh thats js putting area interms of diamter
cuz r = d/2
if u plug d/2 inplace of r
then simplify
u get pid^2
ohh right
yep
can u show me what you did here
i dont really understand where -1/2 came from
sry for asking so much but how did you realize that you needed to invert to find dA/dD
just trying to make sense of it all
yeah its confusing 😭
i was finding a way to link dA and dD
so you knew dA/dD was 2piD because its the derivative of the surface area function?
yes
and the first half is to find the value of D which can satisfy the condition
then the second half is now using that to find the rate of change of area
therefor dA/dt
and if u break taht down using the info we have we can say dA/dt=dA/dD times dD/dt
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I GET IT
perfect
in the start yea, but u get used to it 😄
to move it from the other side
the inversion in the first half was to find the value of d
then yea u move it to the other side
to find dA/dt
so we found that dA/dt = -4piD
derivative of SA with respect to time would be SA = piD^2 --> dSA/dt = 2 piD dD/dt
then move dD/dt to the other side of the equation
so when we plug the initial value of D we found, we can say that that is the upper limit
yes that is correct
ur wlcm man

hi
i am in need of help for a fourier series question
i finished and solved question 1)
im now working on 2)
and i solved the
an
and the bn
my question is, i have two different values for the odd and even, how would i represent it for the f(x)
!filetype
Please post images (such as PNGs or JPGs) of the question rather than other filetypes such as PDFs which have to be downloaded. Non-image downloads can potentially contain viruses or other security risks.
oh
ok
this is the question
i got An as this
i got Bn as this
my ao is this
my goal is to finally finsih and solve the question asked
which is what is the fourier series
how would i represent it as an equation
so far my professor has only given us cases where for example, the "even" bn is 0
so i never have to account for it
but in this case, they both have values, would it change the way I represent my final answer?
you have the formula here
yes
in the case where bn is 0 you just ignore the sine term
but now, don't ignore it
that's all
well
what i mean is
i never seen a case where it isnt ignored
so i dont even know how to write it out
like bn as a whole isnt 0
its like when n is even
or smth
Well you write it out in the exact same way as you've written out the an terms in the past
but now you use the values for bn, and you write sin instead of cosine
hm, are u able to give me an example?
u dont need to use same values
just a diff thing
in the past, bn would have n even = 0
but the n is odd
still exists
meaning we would reach to a value
but in this case where i have bn has a value for both n even and n odd
what should i do?
wait im stupid
this has been a dumb question
🤦
well actually
so my prof keeps it "general"
but then further simplifies it
using the odd/even idea

I'm trying to solve this and I think I have an answer but I'm not sure how to check if it's right or not
whats ur answer
since there's no way i know of how to fact check it and it's past due so it won't tell me if it's right or wrong
i got 10
by finding the first few i get 3, 9/10, 27/100, ...
that doesnt seem right
plugging into S_n = 1(1 - 9/10^n-1)/(1 - 9/10)
9/10^n-1 is infinitely close to 0 so 1/(1 - 9/10)
the ratio is acutally 3/10
look at your sequence here
...i confused what that number meant
common ratio
i got it into my head that number was simply the 2nd of the sequence and not the ratio
ty
lol np
1/(1 - 3/10)
1/7/3
3/7?
should be 30/7
hm... what am i missing then
yes

,rotate
How do I solve this limit
i don't think this will work here
how so
both limits diverge
yes but my teacher wants me to prove
it
showing that there is an infinity
i know it diverges
because of the discontinuity
he wants me to express them as limits
and solve
This is an improper integral
ln |a-3| will diverge
In that context, what you have so far is correct, just cancel out the ln|a-3| terms
Not necessarily. You are still fine to.
technically because you have an absolute value inside then 3+ and 3- won't matter here
ok but can u explain to me why this here gives me -infinity
i know the other limit gives me +inf
but i dont get why this one is -inf
oh wait the integral converges right?
diverge
hmmm
,w integral 0 to 5 of 1/(x-3) dx
yea this is essentially why
yeah
Ln(0^+) is +inf
but what is ln(0^-)
is it -inf
like automatically since its the opposite
no
both are -inf
Well ln(0-) is undefined but in your case u have the absolute value
So it’s still ln(0+)

I am kind of consfused about what my professor says
like yea okay the "order" of the bottom is higher, but doesn't this oscillate?
this limit doesnt exist does it?
like, the plot cosx = -xsinx has infinitely many intersections so we never run out of asymptotes
yeah the limit doesn't exist
is there some kind of good asymptotic limit here
i dont know anything about asymptotics sorry

Would if be true to say that if m does not divide a - b then m * n does not divide a - b

if m is not a factor of a-b
why would m*n be
I was thinking that, logically it makes sense but im trying to prove it and im kinda stuck
how would you prove it
see my question is part of a bigger proof
trying to prove that if m divides a - b then n*m divides a - b
trying to prove this by contrapositive
this is untrue
m=2, a-b=4, n=4000
2 divides 4 but 8000 obviously does not divide 4
unless if you are proving that n*m divides a-b ==> m divides a-b

im unsure about why there is a must in square rooting here.
<@&286206848099549185>
All terms in the expression must be multiplied by the exponent (3).
If the exponent is inside the parenthesis, it only applies to the term which it is raised to.
in simpler terms?
Such as (3+1)^3 means 3^3 + 1^3
Now if it was (3^3 + 1) it would be 3^3 + 1
For your problem, the exponent applies to the all terms as it is outside the parenthesis. Meaning all terms inside the parenthesis are raised to the third power.
Does that fully make sense? It’s a bit hard to explain through text.
i mean i still dont understand why it must be raised and why the ^3 is kept

Define mappings f: R - > R by f(x) = 4x^(2)+1 and g: R - > R by g(x) = e^(3x).
A) Find the composite mapping fg.
B) Is fg injective? Give a proof or counterexample" Pretty sure I got A down, we do f((x)) = f(e^(3x)) = 4(e^(3x))^2+1 = 4e^(6x)+1. (edited)
I'm struggling with B.
How does one prove injectivity? How does one prove surjectivity?
Generally you'd prove injectivity by showing that if $f(x_1) = f(x_2)$, then you must have $x_1 = x_2$
@brittle beacon
There are shortcuts you could use, but as they say you should prove it, probably best to do it directly
I think I got it down. So I set 4e^(6x)+1 = 4e^(6y)+1, subtract on both sides, isolate for e^6x and e^6y, apply natural logs, get 6x=6y, divide by 6, we get x = y, and since x and y are injective, fg is injective. right?
What about surjectivity? How can I determine if its surjective?
Yep 
For any real number of your choosing, can you find an input that'll get you that? To reverse the question, are there any real numbers that aren't in the image of the function?
Would I suppose f(g(a)=b an element in R, So 4e^(6x)+1 = -1 if I chose b = -1 E R?
Well, that's kind of the idea, does any [real] x such that it's true exist?
Getting a wild answer, so from here I'd just solve for x, right?
You would try to - what's the answer you're getting?
(ln(-1/2))/6
do you get same thiing
yep, you can't, so there's no solution to that
Another way to see it is that you know $e^p$ is strictly positive for any real $p$, so $4e^{6x} + 1 > 1$ for all real $x$

So it's impossible to attain any values that are 1 or less
So its not surjective? It is not surjective because there are some real numbers, like the one we just derived, is not covered. So it's not surjective over the entire set of real numbers R.
Yep, correct 
It's making more sense. So for injectivity for functions means that if fg(x) = fg(y) then x = y. For surjectivity, we want to find any values that doesn't belong in the function?
For [lack of] injectivity for a function h, you want to show that if h(x) = h(y), you must have x=y [or find two distinct x,y such that h(x) = h(y)]
For [lack of] surjectivity of h: A -> B, you want to show that for any choice of b in B, there's an a in A such that h(a) = b [or show that you can choose some b in B such that h(a) = b has no solutions in A]

Whats with the parallel projection and perpendicular?
for i) i did
,tex p = $(F_1 \cdot \hat{F_2}) \hat{F_2}$
suds
which was -7.49i + 25.68j
i dont know what component is acting parallel/perpendicular and as they are both worth 2 marks, i dont think that it is just the i and the j values as that would mean that ii would be 1 mark
all vectors can be expressed as the sum of two perpendicular component vectors. Normally those component vectors are in the x- and y- directions, but we can also consider directions that are parallel and perpendicular to some other vector
we can split F1 into components in two different ways:
- into F1x and F1y (the x- and y- components)
- into F1 (parallel to F2) and F2(perpendicular to F2)
In both cases, F1 is the sum of these two vectors (which are perpendicular to each other), but the two sets of components are distinct
we already found the parallel component by vector projection
i dont understand how you split f1 into parallel to f2 and perpendicular to f2
so F1 is -31.25i + 18.75j as the x- y- components you mean?
the component of f1 parallel to f2 is the same as the vector projection of f1 onto f2
if we know the magnitude of vector F1 and one of its components, we can then solve for the magnitude of the other component

Consider the proposition
"For all integers j and k, if jk is even then j or k must be even"
State the contrapositive and hence prove the original statement by contraposition.
I think my proof isnt enough but im not sure
so "For integers j and k, if jk is not even then neither j or k are even."
If the contrapositive is true, the original statement is true.
2jk - 1 = odd for any integer j or k
we know that any multiple of 2 is even. if jk = n then 2n - 1 is odd
let j be 2n - 1
(2n - 1)k = 2nk - k
for any integer where k is odd, 2nk -k is odd. If 2n is even, 2nk is even
Assume that this is also true for j
(2n-1)(2n-1) = 4n^2 - 4n + 1
where 4n^2 and -4n are even, the plus one makes the equation odd
therefore for all integers j and k, if jk is odd, neither j or k is even
the contrapositive of this statement is true
angle multiple?
sorry?
"we know that angle multiple of 2 is even"
what does that mean?
is that a typo for every multiple?
oh ok
so
when you say "assume that this is also true for j"
Assume that this is also true for j
(2n-1)(2n-1) = 4n^2 - 4n + 1
i mean like (2n-1)k
youre using the same value of j for k?
so k could also be (2n-1)
j = k = 2n-1 ?
yeah, because j is not necessarily equal to k
yup, that shows jk is odd
i think so, it's a bit confusing to read i guess but i think you got the gist of it
im not sure why you wrote this: "If the contrapositive is true, the original statement is true."
idk ive barely done any proofs
but its true that if the contrapositive is true then the original statement is true
do i not have to finish it like that when proving by contrapositive?
@leaden widget
I also have another proof i just did
Consider the proposition
"The sum of a rational and an irrational number must be irrational"
Prove the statement by contradiction
Assume this statement is false.. therefore teh sum of a rational and an irrational number must be rational
in order for a number to be rational, it can be expressed as a simplified fraction a/b where b is not 0
x,y,b,a,c are rational
a/b + sqrtc = x/y
sqrt c = x/y - a/b
sqrt c = (xb - ya)/yb
this is not true
why are you writing sqrt c
irrational numbers cannot be exporessed as simple fractions so the statement is false therefore the sum of a rational and an irrational number must be irrational
square root, i cant do that with typing
,tex $\sqrt{c} = x/y - a/b$
suds
and what is c, c is a rational number?
well not all irrational numbers can be expressed as roots of rational numbers
i.e. transcendental numbers, which are also irrational
ok so if i just do c, it shows for all irrational numbers?
true and also c could be like 4 which is rational
thanks for that
other than that?
yeah you could write $c\notin\mathds{Q}$
Soosh
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
i just wronte where c is any irrational number
yea
ya thats fine
so at the end of the first proof, i shouldnt write the contraposition is true so the original statement is true
and well the sum \ difference of any rational numbers is also rational
in my actual writing i did =/ (not equal sign)
and if i say this statement is false isnt that valid?
how else do i write it?
yes just say it contradicts the premise that c is irrational
but when showing the working?
so the original assumption that the statement is false...must be false
oh
but if i wrong c = x/y + a/b
i know that c does not equal that
but i cant write =/ before proving it
yes i know but you said
.
it does imply it but it also proves that it is false
it shows that it doesnt work
what implies what?
what proves what is false?
i dont understand what you are asking...
you said that writing c = x/y - a/b implies c is rational
which is a contradiction
i thought you were saying an error in my writing?
no
contradiction of this
yes it is, its supposed to be
because you prove the contradiction being wrong to prove the original statement
"The sum of a rational and an irrational number must be irrational"
-assume this is false (this is the assumption)
then for some irrational c and rationals a, b, we can write
c + a = b
c = b - a
but the sum of two rationals is also rational
therefore c is rational, but we assumed c is irrational
(this is the contradiction, both of those can't be true at same time)
contradiction implies our assumption on 2nd line is wrong
proof done
right then you get to the point that c is both irrational and rational
which makes things explode
... which it is not
boom proof

distribute the 1/3 on the left hand side, if you already not have done so
Can you show your work?
@mystic saffron show your work please
@mystic saffron Has your question been resolved?
ignore the first thing can you explain this
i don't understand how it became 9 = 3/4x
@tough rapids ?
Ab
Ab
you want the x'es on one side and the numbers on the other
right
well part of it is based on what people have seen before. but if you go back to the original equation, after distributing the 1/3, you have
$1/3x-2=4/9x-2$
Ab
Ab
so some quantities multiplied by x'es and some that stand alone
then you just plus and minus to get the right thing
(another way of doing it)
and the plus and minus you can do is because:
it's like a balance (if you think of weight). taking away weight from both sides or adding does not change the overall equation
I see hmm
and you have this unknown x quantity
Yeah

Write the force F as a cartesian vector
I don't understand how to do this
The answers are in the southern corner at the right but I don't understand the process to getting there
translation please
Write the force F as a cartesian vector
$Pure2$
$F_x=F_y=\frac{F*sin(60)}{sqrt2}$
$Pure2$
@finite birch Has your question been resolved?
This is correct
Angle of F with -x axis is 60 so Fx= -Fcos(60)
And find angle with y axis using cos²a+ cos²b + cos²c = 1 where a,b,c are angles with x,y,z axis
And when you find c Fz = F cos c
Btw force along a line= F*cos(angle of F with line)
why do you use cos
isn't it sin?
No it's cos
Sin would give you Force perpendicular to the line
Cos gives force along the line

Sequence (b_n)_n for n in N converges to b.
Can somebody explain this?
I understand that |b_n - b| < |b|/2 bcs we can choose ε freely . But why is |b_n| > |b|/2?
I actually want to prove this, but I need to understand that Inequality first
Well reverse triangle inequality gives you that $\abs{ \abs{b_n} - \abs{b} } \leq \abs{b_n - b} < \frac{\abs{b}}{2}$, which gives that $-\frac{\abs{b}}{2} < \abs{b_n} - \abs{b} < \frac{\abs{b}}{2}$, and then $\frac{\abs{b}}{2} < \abs{b_n} < \frac{3\abs{b}}{2}$
@brittle beacon
Last by adding |b| to all sides and simplifying, and the "lower half" of that is what you want


hmmm
