Can somebody explain to me how to use the general formula of simpson's 3/8 in a simple way? Like why did we put y3 there and why the rest there
Here
You're asking for a proof?
Then what are you looking for
I want to know the explination of the formula...
Like why did we put the y1 y2 y4 y5 there and then put y3 there
See the image please
That comes from the formula
Yes. Explain it please
If you want to know why the formula works, that's what the proof is for
But you just said you don't want the proof
So 
I just want a simple explination
Like in the trapezoidal rule we took the first and the last then multiplyed the rest by 2
Here what did we do?
In numerical integration, Simpson's rules are several approximations for definite integrals, named after Thomas Simpson (1710–1761).
The most basic of these rules, called Simpson's 1/3 rule, or just Simpson's rule, reads
In German and some other languages, it is named after Johannes Kepler, who derived it in 1615 after seeing it used for wine b...
Look
In simpson's 1/3 rule we took the first and the last then multiplied the odd ones by 4 and the even ones by 2
Explain 3/8 like that if you can
Did you read the wiki yet
Yes
What don't you understand about it
They give a similar formula
Continue
.
???????
They're just fractions
What are you looking for man
You said you don't want the proof
You said you read the formula
Yes I told you to read that section here
And you said you did
Here is its formula.
Now explain to me how to USE it. I do not want to know how did it come into existence
It's exactly the same as the other Simpsons rule except with 3/8 and 3 in some places
Is it the 3/8 you're having trouble with?
You evaluate the function at the interior points then add them
Then multiply by 3
Then add the endpoints
Then multiply by 3/8
We multiply 3/8 by the step-size then we multiply the Answer by:
The first point + the last point plus 3* what?
- 2*what
This is what I want

Trying to find exact value of this function
what have you tried
I tried converting 5π/8 to degrees and looking for a special triangle
I get 112.5 degrees which doesn't have a special triangle
theres a handy formula to help you
it's double angle formula for sin
you kinda just need to memorize and get used to using it
but it's sin(2x) = 2sin(x)cos(x)
here you have that x = 5pi/8
and you want to find sin(x)cos(x)
well that is sin(2x)/2, or sin(5pi/4)/2
sure
OMG because (sin2A)/2=sinAcosA
👍
yup, no problem

in calculating a limit, our teacher put x^x-1 like e^(xln(x)-1)
$x^{x - 1}$ се е превърнало в $e^{x \ln(x) - 1}$, нали?
това не се ли получава e^(xln(x))/e
Ann
$x^x - 1$?
Ann
да
$x^x - 1 = e^{x \ln(x) - 1}$?
Ann
да
но може би само изглежда така поради лошия почерк...
аз бях доста учуден
тогава е просто e^(xln(x))-1

I dont understand how to solve this
do you understand gradient intercept form of a line and conditions for perpendicularity
Can u say that in english 
to get gradient intercept divide through by coefficient of y
u are using a lot of fancy words that i dont understand
do you know either of the words "slope" and "gradient"?
also that guy's speaking in a way that's bordering on gibberish so not your fault if you don't gete him
get him*
@tiny wind
okay ty i thought i was going crazy
oh lmfao the question even mentions the word "slope"
im on a different question now
yeah i got it wrong so it gave me a new one
same format different numbers?
yes
ok show us
im still gonna ask you this: are you familiar with the concept of slope
yes

if i gave you the equation y = 8x + 11 and told you this defines a line,
and asked you for the slope of this line,
would you be able to answer
no
do you know slope-intercept form
no

Hi, I am a Undergrad Student taking Calc 2. Can someone help me understand how to integrate this function using U - Subsituiton?
notice how the derivative of sqrt x is 1/(2sqrt(x))
and how we also have sqrt(x) in the denominator
it’s just missing the 2 in the denominator
so u can multiply by 2/2 to get it to look like sin(u)du
or u can think of it like du=1/2sqrtx dx
dx=2sqrtx du
and the sqrtx will cancel
then u have 3sin(u) * 2 du
=6sin(u) du
and this is easy to integrate
just -6cos(u)
which is -6cos(sqrtx)
and don’t forget the +C
yea no no that would be if u was our original variable and we did a substitution with the variable x
Ah ok thanks !!!

someone show me how to do this pls
,rotate
did you try plugging each of the options in and see if there's an integer k that makes the equation zero
i did not
i will try and lyk
what do you mean
put kx on the right hand side
divide everything by x
you will see
plugging in answer choices is not necessary with this in mind
i mean subtract kx from both sides
then divide both sides by x
ill have 7/x
that is correct
okay
now you can observe the answer choices
observe? 😭
you have a 7/x term so you can intuit that x should have a factor of 7 in it

i have a series from n=2 to infinity : 2/(n^3-n) and I am trying to express it as a telescoping series but cant seem to figure it out
i tried partial fraction decomp but it didnt seem to work
would that be the only approach?
what did you get for your partial fraction decomposition?

I don't see why that wouldn't work

wait what
remember to use partial sums of a series when using definition to test the convergence of a series
i dont understand
have you ever investigated of the convergence the series due to the definition?
no
so why are you dealing with such a problem now?
We use the telescopic methods shown above to examine the convergence of a series based on the definition
ok
so I gave you a hint, how to continue your problem, please carefully read what I've written for you

i need help understanding this. why is step one multiplying by a fraction with a denominator of 1-cosx?
The first step is multiplying the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator.
is that to get a common denominator?
It's not the immediate goal no. Multiplying by the conjugate like that usually helps simplifying stuff. For instance, doing it here gives you a (1-cos^2 (x)) in the denominator, which can be simplified.
to sin^2(x)
Yes
is c = sinx?
that gives them the common denominator of sin^2x
ok i got it thanks 😊

suppose we have:
x+y=1
-7=0
is this system consistent or inconsistent
like suppose the augmented matrix gives 0=-7 after reduction
well
what do you think
can it be consistent
or is the unignorable -7=0 gonna fuck us up?
i always thought it would make the system inconsistent (no solutions) BUT wolframalpha apparently does not agree with me
show exact WA input and output
The presence of a single false statement in the system renders the system inconsistent
scroll down?
It's pretty much the same way you use that word normally:
The information is inconsistent with truth
yeah that's what i have on my textbook too
Just seems like wolfram is confused about how to present the answer (or maybe the way you entered it)

How's $\lim_{x\to0}x\left[\frac{1}{x}\right]$=1?
Why am. I here
where [x] is the floor function
My attempt:- I can re-write[1/x] as 1/x-{1/x} where {x} is the fractional part function
so I'll have 1-x{1/x}
now what?
{1/x} will always be between 0 and 1, and x approaches 0, so x{1/x} approaches 0
Nvm
as x appraochs zero, 1/x tends to infty
it does, but {1/x} doesn't, because it's the fractional part
1/x is unbounded, but {1/x} itself is bounded
{} is a function that always outputs between 0 and 1, so when defining limits, it's a constant value
yes I understand but that would just mean the limit is bounded between 0 and 1 , right?
as bee said, the x term goes to 0
well {1/x} is always between 0 and 1
but then you multiply it by x, which is going to 0

Help
one moment

oh shit can u buy me nitro
I can't even buy food
yeah I made the mistake of paying yearly
and then i lost my job xd
how much
this
LOL
aight aight
thanks dad
mhm
$6\sqrt{x^2y^3}\left(\frac{x^{\frac{1}{3}}}{y^{\frac{1}{2}}}\right)$
yes
Juke | ping me if no response
how do u type that jesus
latex
it would make me crazy
yes
that simplifies to just $6xy^{\frac{3}{2}}$
Juke | ping me if no response
does that make sense so far?
how
uhuh
I just did that to the radical
ooo
okay
Oh uh
one mistake...
um
its actually not 6 x sqrt x²y³
its
6sqrtx²y³
i js saw that
oh
yea...
is that supposed to be the 6th root?
breh
u wrote it so poorly bro 
anways
okay
same idea
x^(2/6)y^3 and then
idk what the right side says
shhh
is that n?
its
multiplied by
X^1/3 / Y^(-1/2)
ill js show the question in the tb
oh
this
perfect
thanks dad (he never said that part)
this is what u worte
it's all wrote, mainly bc u wrote it wrong to start
anyways
make this into exponents
what do u get
I'll type it as u answer
also bro
the y^3 IS inside
are u trolling me? 😭
okay
my sleep deprived ass is struggling a bit xd
anwyays
$x^{\frac{2}{6}}y^{\frac{3}{6}}$
Juke | ping me if no response
u see how i got this?
nuh uh
mhm
yes
ph
and the root is 6
yes
$x^{\frac{2}{6}}y^{\frac{3}{6}} = x^{\frac{1}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{2}}$
do u see how this simpified
wait typo
Juke | ping me if no response
there, tpyo fixed
do u see that
is that step clear?
( i'm gonna assume so bc it should be )
yes
anwyays
now we have the multiplying term on the right
which is.......
that thing
yep
so $x^{\frac{1}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{2}}\frac{x^{\frac{1}{3}}}{y^{\frac{-1}{2}}}$
Juke | ping me if no response
y will become 1/2 in numerator
is that right
I mean
yeah
sure, let's go with it
I wasn't gonna do that
but it's the same thing
yep
$x^{\frac{1}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{2}}x^{\frac{1}{3}}}y^{\frac{1}{2}}$
Juke | ping me if no response

reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
now just simplify
COMPILE ERROR MY ASS, IT LOOKS FINE U BOT
sigh
anyways
just combine em now
and ur good
do u know how to muliply exponents
idk what u wrote
$2x^1/3 x 2y^1/2$
sin city ☆
just write it by hand
$2x^{\frac{1}{3}} X 2y^{\frac{1}{2}}$
use {
oh
sin city ☆
Uwu
oh
so don't have any 2 of anything
we are multiplying
so we add exponents
so we just have $x^{\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}}y^{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}}$
Juke | ping me if no response
how do u type that so quick
bc ik \frac wants two {} so I always do \frac{}{} and then fill in
that way i don't have to track the braces
same for exponent
technically I don't need the braces in the exponent code part here
but dw about the nuance, just always use it tbh
anyways does this make sense?
u can then add and get ur final answer
which is $x^{\frac{2}{3}}y$
Juke | ping me if no response
that's the correct simplified form of this
this made my brain hurt
it's not hard, just annoying
just deal with it for whatever unit ur learning this for
and then you'll never interact with such weird shit again tbh
or at least, rarely lol
yeah
im doing this for
fuckin
logs

anyways, I gotta get ready for class
ive gotten my ass beat

does this pairwise disjoint mean like a set of singletons
yes, for example if you did the hiene borel on a set [0,1] would fit this?
the what
Heine–Borel theorem
im just thinking of an example of this sorry
would {2,3} U {4,5} be a better one
I'm not sure what Heine borel has to do with this
{2,3} and {4,5} are disjoint yes
i was just thinking like if you have a closed set from 0 to 1, you could make a finite covering of it no, and would it be disjoint if you did so?
coverings don't need to be pairwise-disjoint.

I dont think I understand cantors thrm, specifically why the powerset of a countably infinite set is uncountable
Which argument of Cantor's are you referring to?
The diagonal argument?
The theorem that shows it for more than just countable sets?
I guess?
like i think this one is to do with the P(N)
but i dont think i understand
OK, but which of those two?
Usually the diagonal argument is used when first introducing the idea that the powerset of a countably infinite set is uncountable.
Can you go over the diagnonal argument with me because ngl that sort of confuses me, like if you can just show there is no surjection from f:X -> Y, then it is uncountable?
is that. literally it
i mean it intuitively makes sense, i just dont know if my definition is percise enough
Yes, if there's no surjection from a countable set to another, the other is uncountable.
I also recognize that this implies that the cardinality of X is less than Y
With all pairs of countable sets, you can get a surjection from one to the other.
Countable means you can label them with the naturals.
right
So, let's say that f turns a natural number into a member of set A and g turns a natural number into a member of set B.
You can just do f(n) |-> g(n) to get a surjection.
right
So, if you can't possibly get a surjection, they're not both countably infinite.
Does that make sense so far?
yes
OK, so the powerset will be subsets of the original set.
So, you'll have like g(2) = {f(1), f(2), f(3)} or something like that.
Note that g(2) contains f(2).
ok so because there is no surjection from N to any powerset unless it is a finite set, then it is uncountable
Well, it's more complicated to prove there's no surjection.
hmm
There are also things like g(3) = {f(1), f(2)} where 3 is on the left but not on the right.
For example, g(something) is the empty set.
So, take all the numbers where g(n) = some set without f(n) in it.
Does that make sense so far?
Like let's say that g(27) = {}.
Well, there's a 27 on the left and no 27 on the right.
g(3) = {f(1), f(2)} has a 3 on the left and no 3 on the right.
So, we take all the natural numbers that are on the left but not on the right of one of those pairs.
We put them into a set, like {3, 27, ...}.
Then, g(something) = {f(3), f(27), ...}.
The question is whether something is in the set on the right.
Do you understand the setup here?
If not, do you have any questions?
@mystic saffron
No problem.
OK, so let's say that g(1000) = {f(3), f(27), ...}.
Will f(1000) be in that set?
i guess not based on the previous examples?
Well, it might be, it might not.
The thing we do is to try both.
Let's say 1000 is on both sides.
Well, the way we got {3, 27, ...} is that we said that g(3) doesn't equal something with f(3) in it.
g(27) doesn't equal something with f(27) in it.
So, if f(1000) is in g(1000), that's a problem.
Do you see why?
its just not possible?
If 1000 is in {3, 27, ...}, then g(1000) doesn't contain f(1000).
okay
Just like if 3 is in {3, 27, ...}, then g(3) doesn't contain f(3).
But we just said that f(1000) is in g(1000).
So, that can't happen.
Does it make sense why?
This can be hard to understand at first.
Or, to get rid of the functions, we can do:
3 |-> {1, 2}
27 |-> {}
Let's get the set of all numbers that don't produce a set with themselves in it.
3 doesn't produce a set with 3 in it.
27 doesn't produce a set with 27 in it.
So, something like {3, 27, ...}.
That set is in the powerset, so let's say 1000 |-> that set.
1000 can't produce a set with 1000 in it because that set doesn't contain anything where a number (here, 1000) produces a set with the same number in it.
But that means that 1000 doesn't produce itself, so it is in that set.
So, 1000 is both in that set and not in that set.
i think that makes sense

When it comes to vertical asymptotes, if an expression cannot be simplified further, for example x+1/x+2, does that mean there's automatically a vertical asymptote at x=-2? Or do you need to take a limit as it approaches -2 to verify that its a vertical asymptote (ik you have to have a limit to determine if its positive or negative infinity)
Do you mean $x+\frac{1}{x}+2$, $x+\frac{1}{x+2}$, or $\frac{x+1}{x+2}$?
SWR
bascially any rational function that can't be simplified further
the example gave was (x+1)/(x+2)
Yes. Parentheses are helpful
I was really thrown off, as I thought you meant x+(1/x)+2
ok
A vertical asymptote is never guaranteed
Most trivial example is $y=\frac{x+2}{x+2}$
SWR
yes
so it can be simplified
yea ik
I believe a non-removable discontinuity for a rational function is a vertical asymptote
but im talking functions like (x^2)/(2x+1)
you can't simplify
so there would have to be a VA at -1/2 right?
yea,
that what I was tryna say
Not quite. A vertical asymptote is defined as an x coordinate where the graph approaches infinity in either direction
wdym?
the two-sided limit is +infinity?
(or -infinity?)
I mean either side of the limit will go to either + or - infinity
so 1/x would or would not have a vertical asymptote at x = 0?
slightly confused by your definition
ok, sure
But my question was to make sure that what I thought was correct
So I can IDENTIFY vertical asymptotes by looking at a rational function
Oh you said non-removable. My mistake. I thought you were referring to holes.
I think you are correct, unless SWR points out a mistake in my reasoning (I don't think there is one)
Yes. You are correct
Tushar and I just wanted to be sure we agreed on the definition so as to not give you bad advice
Ok
Yea I know the definition
It’s just this was just identifying VA by looking at a rational function
another way of phrasing this is that a rational function only has two types of discontinuities: removable and infinite
cannot be a jump, because rational functions are continuous wherever they are defined
cannot be an "endpoint" discontinuity because rational functions are only "undefined" at finitely many points (the roots of the denominator)
yeah, just need to be a bit more precise about "cannot be simplified further"
but I think you mean non-removable discontinuity, so it works

Might sound dumb
but how does this definition of prime work:
p is said to be prime if whenever p|ab either p|a or p|b
p is prime if the divisibility of ab by p implies that one of a and b is itself divisible by p
here is how this fails with a non-prime:
4*9 is divisible by 6, but 4 and 9 themselves aren't

This is kind of physics but i figured a lot of people studied this in school anyway and should know
shouldn't the arrow be biimplication?
because lambda vacuum is the same as saying c
and lambda material is the same as saying v
and why are there 3 equal signs after the n
wtf is going on here
it's not a question it's a lecture slide
but they're saying that the definition of refractive index is n = c/v
and n = lambda vacuum / lambda material
so shouldn't this actually be written as
so what are the 3 equal sign thing
never seen this ever
i so dont deserve to study what im studying lmao
without knowing anything about the topic, I just want to point out that just because <=> is true that does not mean that just writing => is false
i thought that i would be getting negative points for using => instead of <=> if it goes both ways
no
oh
its still a true statement
f me i'll start doing that in the future then
just like 4>=4 is still a true statement
ohhh i see i see
thank you both so much!
guess i could've googled, but it feels so much better to ask here because instead of arbitrary wikipedia sites i get input from "normal" people like myself :p
of course if you want to use the other direction then you better write that <=> holds
sorry could you explain that in other words?
you mean if i want to go from statement B back to statement A at a later stage in the solution?
but what does the "holds" part mean?
if you want to use that n=lambda_vac/lambda_mat implies n=c/v, then you need to write <= or <=>
holds just as in normal english. "equivalence holds".
oh ok yeye that makes sense then
or isnt that normal english? at this point I cant tell anymore
english isn't my native tongue
so while i can speak fluent "daily english" the sciency part isn't really applicable ._.
anyway, got it, thank you so much!

okay so i am trying to understand the behaviour of this circuit
not much context is needed other than to know that Q and Q' must be complementary to each other, and there can never be an instance where both are 1
so, when Clk = 0, the second level gates experience no change
so the circuit pretty much turns off at that point
the rest is pretty hard to grasp so i would appreciate like some sort of guidance with this

Did I solve it right?
No, there's a mistake in going from 3rd to 4th line
It should have been $\frac{dy}{y} = \frac{2x \text{ dx }}{2x^{2}+2}$
smidgin
@leaden light Has your question been resolved?
Am I right with this one ?
No, $ln(2x^{2}+1) \neq 2ln(2x+1)$
smidgin
ok, I need to get rid with ln. But 1/2 ruins everything
$1/2ln(2x^2+1) = ln(\sqrt{2x^2+1})$
smidgin
You are incorrectly using the fact that $ln(a^{b})=bln(a)$
smidgin
Use this to get rid of the ln
$ln(a)+ln(b)=ln(ab)$
smidgin
$ln(y)=ln(\sqrt{x^2+1})+ln(C) \implies
ln(y)=ln(C\sqrt{x^2+1}) \implies y=C\sqrt{x^2+1}$
smidgin
You are mistaken with the properties, you are only allowed to say $ ln(a)=ln(b) \implies a=b$, not $ln(a)=ln(b)+ln(c) \implies a=b+c$ .The first statement is true because the natural logarithm is an injective function. The second statement can be easily proved false if you take a=6, b=3 and c=2
well now I really get it.
smidgin
but should I write it this way, or it's unnecessary F(x, y) = C ?
Depends on how you ask. Some people will be fine if you just left it without getting rid of the ln, some people want you to write it that way
ok
