And thats what i had here right
So what IS a differential equation attempting to find? just wanna really zero it in
you are solving for a function given a relation between its derivatives
that looks scary
for example those differential equations (maxwell) are very useful in electromagnetism
but if its for a basic calculus course, you wont go much further than the example you posted
only separable equations
i think i got the general intuition for now
the hard part for me was just knowing what a differential equation was because i didnt really know what i was doing
i used to hate that version of maxwells equations but when you work with them you get to understand them more fundamentally and truly learn the concepts embedded in them

quick question
its more so physics than mathematics
I'm drafting a box on an incline with an atwood machine
I'm forgetting the name of force that would pull the box downwards
its not perpencidular force as that would be straight down from the center of the box, when I say downwards I mean pulling it down the incline not downwards in a sense of gravity
Are you referring to the component of gravity along the direction of the incline?
yes
along the incline in the direction of the drawn arrow
As far as I know, there isn't a special name for that force
Oh never mind

I'm not sure how to start 85
do you know a taylor series that could approximate ln(1.75)?
no
Yeah I honestly have no clue at all how to start
one of the series you may already know is $$\frac{1}{1-x} = \sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n = 1+x+x^2+x^3 + \cdots$$ What happens if we integrate both sides?
cloud
Wait so you do this then use the intergral remainder therom?
once you have that, you have a maclaurin series for ln(|1-x|) (and for ln(|1+x|) if you substitute in -x), which is then part of your standard toolkit alongside e^x, sin(x), etc.
Wait to find a similar already known series?
the series for ln(1+x) is considered a "known series", but this is how it can be derived
😦 i'm sorry I still don't understand.
,tex .maclaurin
cloud
the series for ln(1+x) is common enough that we include it in lists of common maclaurin series. but if you didn't already know it, you can find it by doing term-by-term integration of the series for $\frac{1}{1+x} = \frac{1}{1-(-x)}$
cloud
So we find a similar series to the original question and then find the terms for that?
what do you mean by "similar series"?
I'm not sure how to do the concept at all:(. I don't remeber my teacher teaching this at all but he still gave it as homework
ok, so we know that given infinitely many terms, $$\sin(x) = x - \frac{x^3}{3!}+\frac{x^5}{5!}-\frac{x^7}{7!} + \cdots$$ But we can't really calculate an infinite sum. so instead, we take the first few terms, since that will be very close: $$\sin(x) \approx x - \frac{x^3}{3!}$$ If we want to find an approximate value for $\sin(0.1)$, then all we'd need to do is plug in $x=0.1$ to the polynomial $x - \frac{x^3}{3!}$. \ If we want to know the maximum error we'd get out of this, then we could apply any of our error bound tests to find an upper limit on how inaccurate our approximation is (the easiest one would be alternating series error bound)
cloud
we can apply a similar logic to approximating $\ln(1.75)$ given that we know the series for $\ln(1+x)$
cloud
Thank you! i'll try it out
I'm not sure how to do the test part
Actually nvm I got the answer. Thank You so much

How do you evaluate these?
You will need to ||expand out the parentheses before using these||
oh that makes sense
is the 2nd and 3rd power something i should just memorize? or is the proof/example of it simple?
because i understand where the first power came from
didnt look at any proof for it however
The proof is actually quite nice
I’d encourage you to look it up
“Sum of squares formula proof” or “sum of cubes formula proof” should suffice

Why is that
sinus hyperbolic
ln = natural logarithm
[\ln\p[\sinh(x)]]
$sh(x) = \frac{e^x-e^{-x}}{2}$
[
\m\sinh x = x + \f{x^3}{3!} + \dots = x + \m o{x}
]
yeah
oooh
I see
So to calculate the limit i can just taylor series the things ?
at 0 obv
yeah obviously

So easiest way is probably to recognize it’s a quadratic equation in vertex form
I understand
So you can basically just look at the function given
I am but when I try put x value it gives a wrong y
You can just find the vertex by looking at the equation
Hi?
<@&286206848099549185>
question
What's your x
equation?
No
The b here is your y value
Not the expression of x?
The x value is negative -a
No
What am I doing wrong bro

hello so i dont understand why we choose the z value here, apparently we have to choose a value for z, i dont get it why?
well, for one of the variables we can choose a value
and once we do that, we can calculate the correct value for the other
its just pretty standard that we start with the last variables when we choose values
but we could also for example choose y to have some value and then express everything in terms of y
@errant heart Has your question been resolved?
so i can choose any numbers i like? or is there a specific pattern?
I dont know why exactly they chose z=1/3. what is the context here?
the point is, y and z are connected
they have to satisfy y=z+5/3
if you choose y then you get a value for z and if you choose z then you get a value for y

Let $\varphi$ be defined by $\varphi(x)=\frac{15}{16}(x^2-1)^2$ for $|x|<1$ and $\varphi(x)=0$ otherwise. Let $f$ be a function with a continuous derivative. Find the limit $$\lim_{n\to\infty}\int_{-1}^1n^2\varphi '(nx)f(x)dx.$$
However, I'm stuck here. This is a problem from a section on positive summability kernels, but I have been unable to verify what the kernel is in this exercise, if there is any. Appreciate any help.

Hello,
I'm doing an exercise on the analaytical way of solving the quantum harmonic oscillator.
I first start with schrodinger's equation
$-\frac{\hbar^2}{2m} \frac{d^2\phi(x)}{dx^2} + \frac{1}{2}m\omega^2x^2\phi(x) = E\phi(x)$
Then I do a substitution to nondimensionalize x $x =\tilde x / \beta$ with $\beta = \sqrt{\frac{m\omega}{\hbar}}$
By doing so I find :
$\frac{d^2\psi(\tilde{x})}{d\tilde{x}^2} - (\tilde{x}^2 - 2\epsilon)\psi(\tilde{x}) = 0$ with $\epsilon=\frac{2E}{\hbar\omega}$
Then it is suggested to use a solution of the form :
$\psi(\tilde{x}) = e^{-\frac{\tilde{x}^2}{2}}h(\tilde{x})$
So I plug it in and derive the following differential equation for $h(\tilde{x})$:
(From now on i'll use Lagrange's prime notation for derivative with respect to $\tilde{x}$)
$h''(\tilde{x}) - 2\tilde{x}h'(\tilde{x}) + h(\tilde{x})(2\epsilon - 1) = 0$
It is then said to use a solution of the form :
$h(\tilde{x}) = \sum_{m=0}^{\infty} a_{2m}\tilde{x}^{2m + p}, \quad a_0 \neq 0$
And now I have to show that there exist two independent solutions that corresponds to p=0 and p=1.
So by plugging this solution into the above differential equation I find two solutions and a recurrence relation.
$\frac{a_{2m+2}}{a_{2m}}=\frac{4m+2p+1-2\epsilon}{(2m+p+2)(2m+p+1)}$ and $ p=0 ; p=1$
This is the exercise subject :

I'm basically stuck at question 6
@hoary steeple Has your question been resolved?
@hoary steeple Has your question been resolved?
I don't really want to look at this problem in detail, but the part where you take a limit as m tends to infinity and... get a function of m is nonsense.
It is a physics problem it doesn't mean "infinity" just really big
and by looking at the equation if you make m really big you can neglect the p, epsilon etc and you get 1/m or lambda/m
I'm of the opinion that if you come to a mathematics forum and ask for help, you should write it in notation understood by the audience. Don't write that you are taking a limit but mean it is big O of a function instead.
Yes, you're right, I apologize

can someone explain why its D
You can think of it as the constant term 6 getting streched by -3 as well.
stretching a function vertically by a factor of k is essentially multiplying that function by a factor of k
so 3 * (1/2sqrt(x+5) + 6)
you forgot to also multiply 6 by 3
ohh wait, i was thinking about function notation.
if it was $\frac{-1}{2}f\left(x\right)+6$ would i be doing it right the way i was doing it?
hypox
Yeah if f was sqrt(x+5) then that would be the case.
But since f(x) = -1/2*sqrt(x+5) + 6, the transformed function is -3f(x) .

algebric are numbers that have real roots. i would assume things like e, and pi are non algebraic terms
algebric are numbers that have real roots.
incorrect.
okay
look up the actual definition of "algebraic number".
also this is going to have to be a cardinality argument.
overuse of the word "it"
"it's finite so it's countable" is poorly communicated at best and just says nothing at worst
also what is 2.12? you haven't shown us, nor do we have a copy of your textbook on hand.
youre right
(rather, we don't know what textbook you're using.)
did you wish to actually say that some set is countable?
well thats what i was implying with 2.2
yes or no
what's finite?
the an
...
the intergers¨'
you are once again not communicating properly
and i am also trying my best to understand what you are saying
as you can see i am not very successful at it, so sue me
you are saying things that could go in a fully written out proof, but unfortunately you're saying them in a manner that is way way too fragmented.
what are you going to type up
a proof of 2.2? or a proof of 2.3? or something else?
2.2 i guess since were talking about it. i dont know what to do for 2.3 but i would rather see if you think im right or not on 2.2 since were on it i thought i had it but now you got me dobuting myself
ok
im gonna ask you for one thing tho
in the stuff you're about to type out
don't use the word "it". at all.
got it 😛
Let An be the set that represents the solutions that satisies the condition given in the hint. Since the number of solutions to this type of polynomial is finite then the set is finite. using theorm 2.12 this is countable. Then the set of alebgraic numbers for this polynomial are countable
Let An be the set that represents the solutions that satisies the condition given in the hint.
"represents"?
and you say A_n, did you mean A_N?
teach me the difference?
n is lowercase, N is uppercase...
okay
i have a feeling you don't have a good idea of what set(s) you actually want to talk about
nah i dont your right
would you like me to try and explain how the proof of 2.2 actually goes?
i of course would love to learn ann, its why im here 🙂
ok
i'll format my explanation as a series of claims. once i am done, i will ask you to name the earliest claim that you don't understand. for example, if you say "I am stuck on claim 10", I will assume that you understand all claims from 1 to 9 inclusive.
do you understand this instruction? y/n
y
ok
for the purposes of making my own life easier, i will introduce some ad-hoc terminology along with necessary notations.
Definition 1: The rank of a polynomial with integer coefficients is defined as the sum of its degree and the absolute values of its coefficients. In other words, the rank of a_n x^n + ... + a_1 x + a_0 is defined as n + |a_0| + |a_1| + ... + |a_n|. [For example, the rank of the polynomial x^4 + x^3 - 7x^2 + 2x - 3 is 4+1+1+7+2+3 = 19.]
Definition 2: For a positive integer N, i will denote by E_N the set of all polynomials of rank N.
Definition 3: For a positive integer N, I will denote by R_N the set of all roots of polynomials from E_N.
Definition 4: I will denote by A the set of all algebraic numbers.
i understand
@near wedge Has your question been resolved?
Claim 1: For every integer N, E_N is finite.
Proof: Given directly in the hint.
Claim 2: Every polynomial in E_N has no more than N roots.
Proof: Let f be a polynomial in E_N. From the definition of rank, we have that deg(f) <= N. From the fundamental theory of algebra, we have the number of roots of f is at most its degree.
Claim 3: For every positive integer N, R_N is finite.
Proof: By claim 2, every polynomial in E_N has at most N roots. By claim 1, E_N is finite. From this it follows that |R_N| <= N * |E_N|, thus R_N is also finite.
Claim 4: The union of R_N for N ranging from 1 to infinity equals A.
Proof:
[If this feels like stating the obvious, or bureaucratic, that's because it is both of those things.] Every number in R_N is by definition the root of a polynomial with integer coefficients, and thus belongs to A. Conversely, for every x in A, there is a polynomial f with integer coefficients such that f(x)=0. Letting N = rank(f), we have that f is in E_N, thus x is in R_N, thus x belongs to the union of the R_N.
Claim 5: A is countable.
Proof: By claims 4 and 3, A is the union of a countable collection of finite sets (R_N). By theorem 2.12, it follows that A is countable.
i understand this. i need to start writing like this
so all roots of polynomials are algebraic numbers
this makes a lot of sense
and for every x in the algebraic numbers theres a polynomial that has zero root
Again you need to be specific in what you say
Not all roots of polynomials are algebraic numbers
the roots of polynomals with integer coefs
are rational coefs still algebraic?
i understand if you put pi out in front it wont be
thank you very much ann. i really do appreciate the time you took. thank you

Find the elements of A
well
the nested roots are ugly right
what if i make it look better
5 - 2sqrt(6) looks inda like
1 - 2sqrt6 + 6 to me
that looks neat right
try using that
use this formula
5-2root(6) = (root(3) - root(2))^2
@blissful depot Has your question been resolved?
Okay.
I'm not sure about that 2sqrt(6)
Gotten to this
<@&286206848099549185>
Write 4+2sqrt(3) as 3+2sqrt(3)+1
okay
And it should be -sqrt(2)+1 instead of -sqrt(2)-1 on the LHS
Why?
I rationalized the fraction
by amplifying with sqrt(2) - 1
There are brackets around the sqrt(2)-1 when you rationalizw the fraction
I see.
And -(a-b)=-a+b
3+2sqrt(3) + 1 is equals to
(sqrt(3)+1)^2
right?
👍👍
xsqrt(3) - xsqrt(2) - sqrt(2) + 1 = xsqrt(3)+x
RHS should be xsqrt(3)+x
Yeah, I typed it wrong
should I isolate x to LHS
Yes
Get it in the form ax=b
Wait I made a typo
It was 4-2sqrt(3)
So the RHS is xsqrt(3)-x
✅
No this is correct
and here x is -1 or 1
Great.
How do you get 2 solutions from a lineir equation?

How do you factorise with ‘X3-7X+6’ I only know how to do it with the start of the equation being X2
u mean a cubic?
Yeah like X cubed do we need to do something to make it an X squared?
Find one root of the cubic; Via root-factor theorem and polynomial division, you will be able to reduce that to a quadratic
So do we do the sum and product equation?
in this case you can actually find all 3 roots with rrt
so u dont neet to do division
Because the question im struggling with, show (x-2) is a factor so would i use that first?
Sorry if im wording this wierdly
if (x-2) is a factor, that means x=? is a solution?
So would I replace the ‘X’ in the equation with 2?
yeah that means x=2 should be a solution, and if you put that into the function and it works, that means (x-2) is a factor
Okk so for example i should replace ‘x3-7x +6’ as 2(3)-7(2)+6?
yeah, and if that equals 0, that means that 2 is a solution and thus, (x-2) is a factor
Ok! Thank you so much!

What is the value of the term that does not contain x
I wrote this (n!/i!j!k!)* 1^i * x^j * x^-k
j-k=0
and since i does not matter the options are j=k=1 and i=3 , j=k=2 and i=1
the answer I'm supposed to get is 51
but I did not get that
Let's go back one step. You have (x^0 + x^1 + x^-1)^5 and want to know the x^0 term in the expansion?
why x^0?
That's another way of saying 1
then yes
OK, so when you multiply out these terms, what sorts of things do you get? Just as an example
Yes 🙂 see what happens there and then work up to 3, 4, and 5
Just to find the general pattern or idea of how these exponents multiply out
OK. Actually, let me go back a step.. you were using a factorial formula. Do you know how you get that formula?
OK, great. Sorry, I probably should have gone down that path first. OK, explain in a little more detail how you were using the multinomial theorem?
the sum of coefficients must be 5
and i want x^0 so j-k=0
so I found 2 solutions
but i did not get the correct answer
OK, so you understand your terms will look like (x^0)^i * (x^1)^j * (x^-1)^k where i+j+k=5?
Sorry, wait
Corrected, thank you
So you're looking for cases where 0*i + 1*j + -1*k = 0 while satisfying i+j+k = 5?
yes
OK, keep in mind that i can be something other than 0
For example, if i=1 then j=k=2 works

help
maybe try writing (x+y+z)^3 in terms of the expressions you are given
wait damn yeah
wait how would that help without know
x^3 + y^3 + z^3
it does
yeah, it's a pretty common factorisation in these olympiad problems
this isnt even oly 💀
😭
sorry this was wrong
you have $(x+y+z)^3=x^3+y^3+z^3\implies 3(x+y)(y+z)(z+x)=0$
kheerii
WLOG let $x=-y$, then $y^2z=2\implies z=\frac{2}{y^2}$
kheerii
replace all the x and z in one of the first two equations and find out what y is
from there, you can find out x+y+z
yeah
wait
i did it with x = -y
and when i added the first two subsituted eq i just got 2y^2 z = 4
which always makes sense
why are you adding?
oh shit i cant add them
just to cancel out terms
you don't need to
but nvm i dont think i can dot hat
you can of course, but there's no reason to
y^3 + 2 - z^2 y = - 1
replace the z as well
and then i sub in z and get
like a
^6
polynomial
oh wait
its a quadratic
but u take the ^ 1/3 of it
that seems messy in order to find the sum
yep
shouldn't be too much
alr..
$y^3+2-\frac{2}{y^3}=-1$
kheerii
$y^6+3y^3-2=0$
kheerii
isnt it - 4
not - 2
@leaden karma
?
i got 2 and 2^-1/3 for x = -y
case
you're right
you mean the value of x+y+z?
ye
that seems correct
im wondering if there is a better sol
wait what i get the same values
for x = -z
oh nvm
nvm i do lol
but wtvr
ye they are all the same
idk that seems weird but wtbvr
well yeah
you can choose any of x+y,y+z or z+x to be 0
it will give you the same resuly
since all the given expressions are cyclic in x,y, and z
wait how is this symmetric
oh
cyclic is diff from symmetric
oh but
that makes sense
indeed
ayy
equation 1 and 2 together make a symmetric condition I believe
kind of
but it's a bit iffy
yeah thats why
i couldnt add them
when plugging the stuff in cause
we treated them as one eq
rather than 2

I am not sure where to start with the complex problems
well for 1 i think you can just use definitions?
and some algebra
do you know what all those symbols and words mean?
only some
which dont you know?
still not sure about these symbols
its just saying that neither a or b are 0
what about the R
right right
this is set notation
how about writing A
in the standard form
of course the standard form is given with Z= a+bi?
for z
"bi" is the imaginary number
Whilst a is the real number
ok ok
and a+bi is just some complex number
modulus

using reverse chain rule
what would i let y equal (i know i could use u sub but i want to use reverse chain rule)
Whats the difference between usub and reverse chain rule
you let y= ln of the denominator
What is reverse chain rule
I guess chain rule is more 'formal' than substitution
but will reverse chain rule work
reverse chain rule should work since substitution is built upon it. But I don't know how to use reverse chain rule per se here.
Just try it and see if it does

hey guys i have a question rq, how can i get rid of the squared for this triple integral problem?
that's the question if u want it written
Wait, why is the square problematic? I took multivariable calculus two semesters ago, so I don't quite remember all.
i don't know if i did a mistake by the order of the integrals but i think if i can get rid of that square i can keep on going by integrating of the next limit of integration
is there a way to get rid of that square ?
Can't you just expand it and the integrate as usual?
yes but i have to expand the square first
otherswise i can't keep up the integration
so you want to avoid the square just to be sure that you don't commit mistakes/ not make it harder.
and ngl it's shameful, but i forgot if there's a way to expand what is inside the brackets (if there's 3 values just like it's shown here)
what should i do to expand it ?
i learned only (a+b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
but there're multiple things to look around in this case
use distribution, so $(2-x-y)^2=(2-x-y)(2-x-y)=(2-(x+y))(2-(x+y))=4-4(x+y)+(x+y)^2=4-4x-4y+x^2+2xy+y^2$.
Crystopher
Larger terms can be divided in smaller ones this even if you only know the good old $(x\pm y)^2$
Crystopher
woah that's a new method
But I don't think there is some shortcut in this case since the bounds are not independent. The last resort may be a substitution but I think that may be worse than expanding.
yeah probably
what if i change the order?
will the final answer be wrong by any chance?
Well, we can assume that we integrate first by x, for instance, you would then need to integrate $2yz$ on bounds involving $x$, so ultimately you wouldn't be able to get a concrete answer really.
Crystopher
so im not mistaken by the order
it's just about how i expand the brackets and i can go on
Your order is alright since it 'eliminates' varibles one by one.
you're welcome

can anyone explain why the integral was broken down to two integrals
So you can remove the absolute value bars and write it more explicitly
okay but why was the 1-e^x put in the integral with upper limit 0
Because when x<0, you have |e^x - 1| = -(e^x - 1) = 1 - e^x
i might be stupid but i still dont understand
You're familiar that
[
\abs{x} =
\begin{cases}
x & x \geq 0\
-x & x < 0
\end{cases}
]
right?
@brittle beacon
yes indeed
oh okay i get that oh okay but still why was -x placed in the first integral
and not the second
For the first one, between -1 and 0, you have that $e^x - 1<0$ and so $\abs{e^x - 1} = -(e^x - 1)$, but for the second one, between 0 and 1, you have $e^x - 1 \geq 0$ and so $\abs{e^x - 1} = e^x - 1$
@brittle beacon
what if the upper was 1 and lower was 0 would that mean that I e^x -1I = e^x -1
@green cradle Has your question been resolved?
Yea if upper was 1 and lower was 0, you have that being true because over that interval your function you're taking the absolute value of is positive

Hi, I just wanted to check that this was a valid proof for "if xn -> 1 as n -> inf, xn^1/n -> 1"
@spiral basalt sorry for the ping this was from your suggestion
yeah if you know x -> x^1/n brings things closer to 1 it's easy
but how would you prove that ?
yeah good point i did just kinda assume that
is it binomial expansion/Bernoulli's inequality? (1 + ε)^n for ε > 0 is greater than 1 + nε > 1 + ε so 1 + ε > (1 + ε)^1/n
but we can't necessarily use that with (1 - ε)^n since we could have ε > 1 and then bernoulli's inequality wouldn't hold, let me think
I should also mention that we've shown pretty early on x^n > y ^n <=> x > y for all x, y > 0 so i know this is by induction and contrapositive
that's why I originally said "for small x at least"
I let you figure out the meaning of small x here
oh nvm that was a previous version of my message
ah okay so do we assume ε < 1 here? but then how do we prove it for ε > 1
who cares
or is it not true
are you gonna take the nth root of a negative number ?
ahh very true okay
so if ε > 1, 1 - ε < 0 < xn^1/n by default gotcha
so that combined with dividing everything by 3^n works, thanks :)
you only care about small epsilons anyways
though arguably it's not a very short argument, but it's a simple one
yeah i mean are there any counter examples in analysis where a convergence works for small epsilons but not large ones?
can't think of any off the top of my head
seems illogical
prove it
you may restrict yourself from
forall e > 0
to
forall 0 < e < a
for a fixed constant a, and it's an equivalent definition of the limit
since if you have say ε1 < ε2, if |an - l| < ε1 we have l - ε2 < l - ε1 < an < l + ε1 < l + ε2 so |an - l| < ε2 automatically
wait sorry that way round
so what delta do you choose ?
one implication is immediate
What about the other one
where does delta come in sorry?
N
oh right, this was just a generic example
we're dealing with sequences, but it's the same for functions
so pick N such that for all n >= N, |an - l| < ε1
and then for all n >= N, |an - l| < ε2 by the above
since ε2 > ε1
yeah, if e >= a
just pick N that works for a/2, it works for e
3rd year of undergrad
cool cool, im 1st year
got my first exam in january so i've gone pretty hard on analysis
probably my favourite module so far i'll likely try and specialise in it
Don't worry about specializing just yet
You're barely getting started with real math
true yeah
Odds are, you won't even stay a math major
odds are doesn't mean it's more than 50%
At least not with me
Just
uni math is different
Some people end up preferring physics or CS
Sometimes even chemistry
I myself am doing my first year as a CS major
And probably my last year as a math major
What courses do you have ?
In our first term we did:
- Analysis I
- Algebra I
- Methods of Mathematical Modelling I
- Foundations (everything they didn't fit in the other modules)
- Introduction to Probability
- Mathematics by Computer
What country is that?
Supposedly your historical enemy
How about the one just down south
What's in the last one ?
ah just some basic python stuff, numpy, sympy, things like that
did very elementary machine learning at the end of our final week
I'm interested in it but i prefer practising maths more than coding so i'm quite out of practice in coding
So scientific computing
Yeah
they try to tie it into our other modules so we had some analysis and algebra to do with computing
and obviously some stats with the machine learning

Is this correct?
I don;t think so, you haven't performed the substitution properly
yeah if you do that you will still miss a variable x there
what
doubt it has a nice closed form, is this high school calc?
if so, it most likely should be x^2
not x^4
but again, I could be wrong
nope
university
oka im getting the news that the question was written wrong
there shouldve been x above
oh thats nice
fuck the doc
that helps a lot
you can use your method now
yeah
any idea how to do this one?
theres a nice u sub in this one
me too, but thatll also work i think
du will be 2lnx * 1/x right?
so itll be 1/2 integ(du/rootu)

ah
its a direct formula then
here i will split it from -2 to 0 then from 0 to 2 right

In question 11d, how do we know that it's meant to be in the form: Ax + b?
In all my previous questions, the partial fractions were also in fraction form. So how do I know when do do it in what form?
(This is the worked solution, not my working)
@worthy dawn Has your question been resolved?
@worthy dawn Has your question been resolved?
@worthy dawn Has your question been resolved?
Why I'm trying to say is how do I make partial fractions!
@worthy dawn if you perform polynomial long division of the numerator and denominator, you'll get Ax + B with some remainder.
most of your previous problems, I am assuming, the degree of the numerator was less than or equal to the denominator.
this is one way of handling it when it's greater than
You can also just perform polynomial long division to start with, and do partial fractions on the remainder
Thanks, I think that makes sense.
Is that what the worked solution did?
well, the worked solution just assumed the polynomial long division could be done, and used the coefficients of the quotient as unknowns and then solved them within the system of equations
both ways are completely valid.

here is the desmos
you dont have to use my already existing expression. if you have an alternative solution using exp than feel free to tell me
Define "clamp"
sorry for fancy language. between 0 and 1
the domain is (0, 1) and the range is (0, 1) using exp
thats what i mean
,w plot log(x+1)
does x = 1 map to 1?
,calc sqrt(1)

1
Square root does
You can multiply the log by a number so that it does too

You have a grand total of 5 marbles (lmao pathetic), to pull out one that has a siiick pattern on it, you got a 40% chance. How many marbles don't got a super sick pattern ?
How do I figure this out?
Suppose 1/5 have a "sickkkk" pattern. What's the chance you pull one with a "sickkkk" pattern? Try that out and you should be able to solve it
Well the chance is 20%
And
Like I’m trying to figure out the mathematical calculation behind it
marbles = 5
those with sick pattern = x
Percentage = 0.4
20% = .2...you want to double that chance
Try 2 marbles with a sick pattern
