Anyone know where lm going wrong?
Trying tó Find A
Why did u write it as a negative
Just pretend it's negative it doesn't matter
I used radians instead of degrees by accident
Help 😦
where does the negative sign come from
I used radians instead of degrees
either way the answer is roughly 0.98 + or -
i checked
and when i put arcsin in the calculator it comes out the same as the initial input
,w 5*sin(80 degrees)/8.67
I did like I said
ok so i have .5679
not 0.022
well
how'd you get sinA=0.022
what was the calculation
bruh
I can't do math cause i keep doing rshit like this
ok well yeah tahts what you did wrong then
but also
stick to the correct units
it happened to work this time
but it usually doesnt
well first I realised i had the wrong units
so I went back and tried with the correct ones
and got the same mistake
it was like a red herring in a way
so yea
google for some reason always prefers radians, should use a diff calc
thanks for the help though
you can specify degrees
instead of radians
then use wolfram
yea will do ty
np

how are you supposed to solve this? the way i solved it is making two variables, a and b and a being the volume of the positive portions and b being the negative portions, then i setup the equations a-b=3 and a+b=13 and then solved for b and got 5, and the answer is -5 because its gotta be negative. my question is, is this the way your supposed to do it? Also why did i not get -5
@brisk dew Has your question been resolved?
It’s just to do with the signing conventions you chose at the beginning. By writing a - b = 3, you’re already taking into account the fact that b is negative. When you plug your value for b in afterwards, you get a - 5 = 3.
If you instead decided to set up your equations as a + b = 3 and a - b = 13, you’d get b = -5
It’s really the same thing either way, it’s just about whether you decide to take whether b is positive or negative into account before solving or not
No problem :)

how do I do this question?
There are a couple of ways of going about it
Let me try to answer your question with a question: what do the factors tell you about the roots of the equation?
For example, if x - 3 is a factor, what information does that give us about one of the roots?
Yup
And what does the root of a polynomial mean?
What would happen if you plugged a root into a polynomial?
it'd equal to zero
yes
Yes!
Another way of doing it would be dividing (x-3)(x+5) into the cubic using polynomial long division, and since you know that’ll divide evenly, you can let the remainders equal 0
It’s a bit more work but that’s another possibility
wouldn't that not be as nice, because you'd have to juggle having variables and numbers together as coefficients?
No problem 😄
can you demonstrate this method
Hope you can follow that
I’d usually do it neater but it’s half past midnight and I gotta sleep now lol
holup u in UK too?
🤣 this is my homework due tomorrow
Ireland, but close enough lol
You too 😎 👍

What’ve u tried @proud fog
This might sound odd
But
I know how to do it
I think
But I just need the answers coz it takes me a while
We don’t give answers in this server unfortunately
Ok
If ur looking for answers, look online
Can u confirm my working out tho?
Yea
A) So u make the denominators the same by multiplying by the first fraction by root2 and the second by root3
Then u add and simplify
Correct?
No
Look at the instructions
First rationalize denominators
How would u rationalize 1/sqrt3
Yes
Correct
If u don’t have to show work, do them in ur head and write down the answers
Stimulates your brain

I need help with parts i and ii
for part i, I've managed to prove than when a < 1, the sequence a_n is both bounded below and is a constantly falling sequence, hence proving that a it's convergent. But idk how to actually calculate its limit value, which i believe should be 0.
and for part ii, i have no clue how to do it.
any help is highly appreciated
i: use the fact that a_n is given to be positive
yoo @open onyx thank god you're still up
using this we can prove the existence of a limit
but how do we calculate it?
you know that it’s bounded below and that it shrinks
which means regardless of the value of a_k you know a_{k+1} is a smaller positive real number (assuming sufficiently large k that the limiting behaviour is dominant)
so given that you can always find a smaller positive real number in the sequence, show that 0 is the limit
this is where you use ε-L
is this the thing from the definition of limit?
yes
yes (more commonly you’ll see the limit denoted as L hence ε-L)
what I have in my notes: there exists Nsuch that | a_n - L | < ε for all n>=N
do we just guess L to be zero?
and plug it in?
yup
or do we get to the 0 value somehow
would it work with an arbitrary sequence that isn't defined like in this case though?
if you can show it holds for some L then L is a limit for that sequence without needing anything else
ok let me try doing it
@mellow notch Has your question been resolved?
yo im a but stuck
so |a_n - L| < ε right
and we assume that L=0
so |a_n - 0| < ε right?
a_n < ε
this means that all the terms of a_n are smaller than ε but bigger than 0
since our sequence was positive real numbers
How would I find an N or ε when the thing is arbitrary though
that's what confusing me
use the limiting behavior of your sequence
you should be able to bound it above by a geometric sequence (note you can freely bound this above because if the upper bound<ε then so does a_n)
geometric sequence?
$a_n= a_0 r^n$
IV
how do I know that this arbitrary sequence can be described as such? like a geometric sequence?
specifically because the limiting behavior is a constant ratio
which is a property of geometric sequences
what do you mean by the limiting behaviour?
like in what way the sequence converges?
$\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}$
IV
this is the limiting behaviour?
if you always had a_{n+1}\a_n= a then it’s a geometric sequence by definition
but this is the limit though
oh i should probably call it asymptotic behavior if it makes it clearer
definitely doesn't xD
umm so
I'm very confused
ok, consider this very hastily made up example of 1, 10, 100, 1000, 499, 248, 122.5, 60..
if you consider the whole sequence it’s some nonsense
but the last 4 terms (and my intention is every term afterwards as well) is bounded above by a geometric sequence 1000(0.5)^(n-4)
ok+
this is the difference between being a geometric sequence and being bounded above by a geometric sequence
the since you have $\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} =a<1$
IV
at some point your sequence starts behaving nicely enough that it’s bounded above by a geometric sequence
but the key point is this sequence doesn’t necessarily have r=a
but instead some r between a and 1 (consider any case where this convergence is coming from above
ok
so at a certain term onwards
the sequence starts behaving like a geometric sequence
aka bounded by a geomtric sequence
this is false and will probably be -1 marks
you actually do not have any guarantee in this regard, only the bounded by geometric sequence part
but since it’s an upper bound, if you can show this geometric sequence converges to 0 then necessarily so does the original sequence
so the limit of our sequence is literally a geometric sequence
but the r is not constant?
the upper bound is a geometric sequence with constant r
a_n itself can be whatever abomination it wants to be
ok
so we were trying to find the value of the limit of a_n, which is probably 0
but we have to actually calculate it
so we use the definition of a limit (since we know that a_n as a limit) to formulate it
but since we don't know from which N the sequence actually starts to converge, we have to describe N as a function of ε
so far right?
and now
what now
show that a_n is bounded above by a geometric sequence with some r ∈ (a, 1)
(you might even want to use ε-N for this)
when you say bounded, you don't mean like a limit right?
ε-N is how we define limits right?
nope, i just need you to show that beyond some point, every a_n is smaller than a term in a geometric sequence with the aforementioned r
this is about 2 lines using ε-N
ε-N is the definition of limit |a_n - a_0*r| < ε for n>=N
a_n < a_0*r + ε
and the point from which every term is smaller than the geometric sequence is ε?
hmm, not quite
i can just show you the argument and see if you can follow it
since $\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}= a, \forall \varepsilon >0 \exists N s.t. \forall n>N, \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} < \varepsilon$
IV
and here’s a fun trick
we pick $r=\frac{a+1}{2}$ and let $\varepsilon = \frac{1-a}{2}$
IV
ok
now see if you can finish the argument using the N already given as the point where the geometric sequence starts acting as an upper bound
direct computation should be sufficient but various methods work
once you wrap your head around it a little and can write out the geometric sequence the rest is pretty quick
small mistake (forgot a in the last line), should be
$\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} \frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}= a, \forall \varepsilon >0 \exists N s.t. \forall n>N, |\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n} - a| < \varepsilon$
IV
a_n+1 <a_n*((a+1/2) + (1-a/2))
for all n>=N
wait
no
|a_n+1/a_n - a| < ε would become a_n+1 / a_n < ε + a
depends on the sign inside the abs value
is this hard or am i just dumb
isn't the sequence always positive?
does it even matter if we have an absolute value there after we carry over the a?
well but the limit is on the ratio
so if the ratio is smaller than a and approaches it from below then the value inside the absolute value is negative
limit of a sequence that gets bounded by a geometric sequence is pretty confusing tbh
which?
I just can't wrap my head around how we need to do all this to figure out the value of the limit
like we literally already know that the limit is 0
welcome to the land of mathematical rigor (and tbh this isn’t very long after you get used to it but yes it’s pretty annoying at the beginning)
sure, but it’s effectively the same thing
oh
show this time that it’s bounded below by another geometric sequence with r ∈ (1, a)
but we don't have to determine a limit of a_n as it is divergent
and therefore show since the lower bound diverges so must the original sequence

the reason why you have to use bounds here is because the original sequence is too uninformative
and the bounds let you do a lot more
just question
(and it’s much easier to put everything in words.. but part of maths is figuring out how to precisely express everything you want to say)
for part i, I know that it has a lower bound at 0, but do I also need to show that it has an upper bound to prove its convergence?
if you can show by ε-N that it has a limit, you do not need any bounds at all
it’s your formal definition of a limit
ok i know that one
my question
how can we apply the definition of a limit to something and see if it has one or not
like take sequence 1/n for example
you basically always solve N as a function of ε
|1/n - L| < ε for n>=N
this means that at some point N onwards, every 1/n will be between the limit and the epsilon value
ok, let’s do |1/n-0|<ε
then 1/n<ε rearranging gets n > 1/ε
then immediately for any ε we pick N = 1/ε
and for all n>N we have n>1/ε which yields 1/n<ε as required
because we know it is :p
just like how you already know yours is
ah ok
and if you weren’t shown something like that, you should see how having a closed form for a_n can let you directly solve for N
which goes back to my point about getting an geometric sequence as a bound, because a geometric sequence has a closed form formula
geometric sequence as a bound
wait geometric sum actually
with and 0<r<1
which would mean that the sum of the sequence is a finite value
i mean if you can show the bounding geometric sequence has infinite sum equal to finite value that’s fine too
bro
I give up
I'm just gonna fail this weeks assignment
Thank you so much for helping me out and being so patient. I really appreciate it

Let x,y,z be non zero reals, such that x^2+y^2+z^2=1, find the minimum value of |x|+|y|+|z|
$\text{Accordingly to the symmetry let's assume that: }x,y,z\ge 0\text{ then }\\\left| x \right|+\left| y \right|+\left| z \right|=x+y+z\\\text{ in addition }z=\sqrt{1-x^{2}-y^{2}}\text{ for }x^{2}+y^{2}\le 1\\\text{ Hence let's consider the following function: }\\f\left( x,y \right)=x+y+\sqrt{1-x^{2}-y^{2}}$
Joanna Angel
Now you may identify the minimum of the function f, that should not be a problem
I just take the partial derivative in terms of x and y yeah?
yes
and equate them to zero, both fo them
tha is the first condition , necessry one fo exisitng the extremum value
next, you need to investigate hessian
determinant consisted of secodn derivatives
yes, x and y both of them must exisit
we name it :
partial derivatives
of the first order
Yeah yeah just treat y as a constant or x as a constant
doyou know the theory ?
when you evalaute first derivative in respect to x, then , you treat y as a consnt
Briefly
and when you compute derivative in respect to y, then you treat x as a consntat
yeah. I got 1 - y/ sqrt (1-x^2-y^2)
$\left{ \begin{array}{l}
\frac{{\partial f}}{{\partial x}}\left( {x,y} \right) = 0\
\frac{{\partial f}}{{\partial y}}\left( {x,y} \right) = 0
\end{array} \right.$
Joanna Angel
I get x=+-1 and y=0, but this can’t be true since then the square root would be zero, and our assumption about them all being nonzero would be false
Since they are nonzero reals
think theres a non-calc way for this
$(x+y+z)^2 \cdot (x+y+z) = 27xyz$
ItzKraken
ItzKraken
Well yeah but we never get out the separate abs |x|+|y|+|z|
so $xy+yz+zx = 1 - 729x^2y^2z^2$
ItzKraken
assume x y and z are positive and non-zero for now
well we know that xy+yz+zx>=-1/2 if they are all@reals
how @fiery ermine 
$1 - 729x^2y^2z^2 \geq \frac{-1}{2} \Rightarrow \frac{1}{2 \cdot 243} \geq x^2y^2z^2$
ItzKraken
ItzKraken
bruh that gives us the maximum value
we need an upper bound on xyz
oh wait
i messed up in AM-GM
The upper bound is sqrt(3) via AM-QM
On |x|+|y|+|z~
$$\begin{array}{l}
\left{ \begin{array}{l}
1 - \frac{x}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2} - {y^2}} }} = 0\
1 - \frac{y}{{\sqrt {1 - {x^2} - {y^2}} }} = 0
\end{array} \right. \Leftrightarrow \left{ \begin{array}{l}
1 - {x^2} - {y^2} = {x^2}\
1 - {x^2} - {y^2} = {y^2}
\end{array} \right. \Leftrightarrow \
\
\left{ \begin{array}{l}
2{x^2} + {y^2} = 1\
{x^2} + 2{y^2} = 1
\end{array} \right. \Leftrightarrow \left{ \begin{array}{l}
x = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{3}\
y = \frac{{\sqrt 3 }}{3}
\end{array} \right.
\end{array}$$
Joanna Angel
that calculation i s corrct plz analsye it
and now plz uinvestigate hessian
and als correct yoruprevious calculations
both , aS you can see, are positive
oh I know where I messed up silly signs
🙂
I unfortunately don’t know what the hessians are
i write it moment
Thank u
$\det \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
{\frac{{{\partial ^2}f}}{{\partial {x^2}}}\left( {{x_0},{y_0}} \right)}&{\frac{{{\partial ^2}f}}{{\partial x\partial y}}\left( {{x_0},{y_0}} \right)}\
{\frac{{{\partial ^2}f}}{{\partial x\partial y}}\left( {{x_0},{y_0}} \right)}&{\frac{{{\partial ^2}f}}{{\partial {y^2}}}\left( {{x_0},{y_0}} \right)}
\end{array}} \right]$
Joanna Angel
if this determinant is positive then f reaches extremeum value in point
if it is negatvei , there is no extremeum
the point
i have foudn for you
above
so noow, you need to plug yoru pint isndie this determinant
I’m sorry but I don’t know any linear algebra:(
aww
Can I just check if they are zeros of the second derivatives?
no
when it comes to the calculus-based method, we first look for the zero of the partial derivatives, i.e. the system of equations that I found for you
and then you need to examine the determinant that I wrote at this found point,
Can you maybe tell me how to calculate the detriment I’ll do that
$\det \left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
a&b\
c&d
\end{array}} \right] = ad - bc$
Joanna Angel
but this will be the maximum value
btw , are you student of what sort of school mayeb it helps in selectign method
not the minimum
if there is no minimum value inside the aera
I’m a high schooler 11th grade
well I know this is the maximum since you can get that using Am<=Km
or QMS*
Like quadratic mean
Yeah
but they are non zero
and satisfy that their squares some up to 1
but moment

yo
im dreading having to find the det of (A-λI) , how would I go about this with any properties ?
I dont have any knowledge that lets me do much without actually having the eigenvalues
Are you not allowed here to look for the eigenvalues?
I can
it's just going to be quite the timesink I think
I can maybe manipulate (A-λI) to have only 1 non zero coefficient when finding det(A-λI)but it would still take centuries :((
Well it would take 5 minutes probably
Is the determinant of A 0?
Actually that's probably not important
no
howww
there are so many computations is so poop
alright
and once I get them im expecting a to have some algebraic multiplicity of eigenvalues
it then has to match the number of eigen vectors (for that eigenvalue)
Obviously for B choose the row/column with the 0
The number of independent eigenvectors yeah
Geometric multiplicity
ye
this shit is unbearable
I get to the end
cant factor it
mistake made somewhere on previous lines
cant find it
fuck off 
did you get this
yes but 439 was on the end originally
:)
so values of 3 , -1,-1
andddd
now to find eigenvector
(s)
ok
got it
and it worked
B can actually FUCK Off
im not doing that ever again
got {[-2,0,1],[-1,1,0]}
now are those the eigen vectors?
and we say the eigen space is the space spanned by those vectors?
I think every eigenvalue has it's own eigenspace
Really you can probably just use wolfram

help
I know the derivative of ln(x) is 1/x
so H'(z)= 1/(the stuff inside the log that im too lazy to write out)
nope
this statement is incorrect actually
ok
oh
so u have to differentiate wrt (im lazy too) in order to use that fact
with respect to
ok
u havent studied chain rule?
my teacher went over it like once in 5 minutes
and expects us to know it
but im not great with it
I know f'(g(x))*g'(x)
ok how about i give u a example
yea thats the rule
but its hard to understand in that form
so heres the example
u need to diiferentiate z wrt x
instead u can differentiate z wrt y and multiply that by the derivative of y wrt x
umm ok ok
u see how the du's cancel out right
yeah
if u want to see y this works i'll link a vid at the end
but now lemme show how to solvve that prob
ok
ok
but consider differentating wrt that whole mess inside the ln
that thing can be treated just like this du
ok
ok imma try a doodle to show
ok
i dont even have a mouse sorry; there s is that big thing
so if we differentiate wrt that s
we can directly use that fact u mentioned before
d(ln(x))/dx = 1/x
what is on the bottom of the second fraction?
dz
wait the second one is also dz?
the first one isnt...
the first one is ds
then with the top ds in the second fraction
it cancels out
ok
but dont cancel them!!
ok
they do if u want to
and see that the equation is true
but our goal here is to differentiate
ok
yea show me ur final results or i'll be unsatisfied
ok
💀
yep
ok
u can differentiate that wrt z right
i might die in like 5min btw
ok
yeah
what
yep
or howevert its spelt
ok
u okay with exponentials?
yeah
and product rule?
should i write the sqrt as 1/2
yea
quotient rule?
yea that helps
less yeah but it should be fine
if u have difficulties with the quotient rule
u can just use the product rule
u know that right
yeah
okay so
the second fraction
Differential of something that looks like (a^1/2)/(b^1/2)
right?
ok
and ull see what i mean
ok yeah i think i get it
root of something divided by root of something else
yeah
ok
if u can quotient is better
ok
and while u do this using chain rule is easier
like how we used the chaos as u in this
we can stilll use the same trick if we face any more difficulty
so yea imma die now
if u need more help

could you use something like I = I^2
why

5 coins are flipped at the same time what is the probability of 3heada and 2 tails
shouldn’t be too hard
do you need to draw a table or are you allowed to use other things to solve
I’m allowed to use other things
alright
so let’s make the probability of this event occurring is the probability of 3h2t over the probability of all possible outcomes
correct?
Yes
oops. not probability just numbers of outcomes
ok anyways
the denominator is easier to start with
how many different combinations are there?
(also are the coins distinct or no)
i think it should be 2^5 instead
Can you please explain why?
every coin has heads or tails right
Yes
so we use the uhh
it’s like fundamental theorem of counting or smth
it’s basically you multiple the outcomes together to get the total amount
Oh
not 1/2 just 2, we are calculating total outcomes first, and then using fractions
you could use it, but it doesn’t really make a different
difference*
anyways we have our denominator as 32 right now
Yes
let’s say we have coins 1 2 3 4 5
Yes
Nope
it will speed it up so you don’t need to count
n choose k is n!/(k!)(n-k)!
so for here we have 5 choose 3
Ye
so plug into the formula and you will get the amount of outcomes
yep

What should be 2?
Why would it be 2
f(2x+1)
yes
The derivative of that is
2
f’(2x + 1) * (2x+1)’
Chain rule
Derivative of the outside function times derivative of the inside function
outside function times inside function times derivative of inside function
but
what’s the outside function
??
f
hmm
f()

What does canonical mean?
I have to prove that (Z^n, •, const0) has a structure of a canonical group
"Let (G, ·, e) be a group, and X be a set. Show that (G^X, •, conste) with (f • f′) : x → f(x) · f′(x) forms a group. Conclude that ∏nZ has a canonical abelian group structure."
I've shown that it's an abelian group (each f has inverse f' and • ist commutative)
Only the canonical property is left.
can't you just use the first proof for that ?
"schliessen" it means "deduce" I suppose
that's what they want you to go for
it can mean a few things, the meaning here is prolly "it's a standard construction"
which is irrelevant for the proof, just show it's an abelian group
@frozen stream
and the idea is, can you write $\prod_n \mathbb Z$ as $G^X$ for some $G$ and $X$ ?
aPlatypus
Actually yes
I have to write a sentence why it's canonical
do you have a specific meaning for canonical in your class ?
We defined canonical projection, canonical embedding and canonical homomorphism (Z → R)
But not specifically for groups.
well if they didn't define canonical group structure just consider it's a fluff word
also don't forget the abelian part
but it's pretty easy to see why it works

I'm confused why is the graph going to the left
Because you can't plug in values of x that are greater than 4 for that function
b is not positive in this case
Im confused wdym
Try rewriting 4 - x in the form b(x - h)

physics problem; somewhere ive made an error, but all of the calculations are correct (i've triple checked)
sorry for the sloppy work, wasn't expecting to have to show to anyone else
@dense thorn Has your question been resolved?
if you look just under the calculation for angular velocity at 10s, i convert it to rad/s just underneath
i used rad/s as my units for angular vel in the linear velocity calculation
i can't see why it'd matter at what point i convert to rad/s in as long as its consistent throughout the angular velocity calculations
@dense thorn Has your question been resolved?
realized it was a dumb error
in the ang vel to linear vel i used diameter not radius

i need help with telling if something is a proportion because i dont understand at all
i dont know if the first one is right and i still need to know how to do the other ones
<@&286206848099549185>
yes
are you sure?
can 16/21 be reduced at all?
16 = 2x2x2x2
21 = 3x7
does anything cancel?
(2x2x2x2)/(3x7)
no
ok
then 16/21 does not reduce
that means 16/21 cannot be rewritten as a smaller fraction
so what would that mean then
its asking if 16/21 can be written as 6/9
?
can 16/21 be written as 6/9
no
no
ok
we're trying to find all values of x that make the statement true
ok
is multiplying both sides by 12 a valid thing to do?
yes
ok
yes
i need help with these
you just cross multiplied to solve the previous one right
so can you do that here too?
gotta be same denominator

how do i use the squeeze theorem to find the limit to (cos(1/n)-1)/(1/n)?
i know that by the squeeze theorem -1 <= cos(1/n) <= 1
limit as n approaches infinity?
and dividing by 1/n is the same as multiplying by n so im finding the limit for n(cos(1/n)-n
im assuming
i can get a screenshot of the book but it doesnt say anything
ive tried multiplying both sides by n and then subtracting n but it doesnt work
-n-n <= cos(1/n) <= n-n
-2n <= cos(1/n) <= 0
the answer is supposed to be 0
not sure what im doing wrong
it’s a sequence so yes it is infinity
yeah but i got negative infinity is less than the sequence which is less than 0
the left side should also be 0
but idk what to do
