So we get $\frac{4x}{3\cdot19}+\frac{x}{19\cdot23}+\frac{x}{3^{3}\cdot23}$

okay,
Were you able to extract a formula for Carrier A?
I think so
what'd you get?
Not quite
yeah
you foudn the slope which is correct
but remember that a linear line has a y intercept
y = mx + b
so you gotta find the b
how do I get the b
well you know your m, which is 50. And you know some x,y values from the chart, so plug in a pair and solve
and remember that the "initial fee" here will be the y intercept for both equations, so pick whichever one is lower
very good
so you have:
A = 50x + 350
B = 55x + 300
So which one has a cheaper initial fee?
b
very good
now the months where they will cost the same will be where both lines intersect
how do we solve for that?
by adding it until its the same?
not quite
the way we find the intersection of 2 equations is by setting them equal to each other and solving for x
Ok
say if we had:
y = 3x + 2
y = 2x + 3
then they intersect at 3x + 2 = 2x + 3 --> x = 1.

I'm asked to approximate $\sqrt {1+x}$ with Maclaurin polynomial of the 2nd degree and estimate the error, for $x \in [0, 1]$
atif
I guess maclaurin polynomial is just Maclaurin series?
I can calculate the first 3 terms, up to the 2nd derivative, but idk what to do about the error and the fact that x is in 0,1 interval
you will have some theorem which expresses the error
compute that expression and check how big it can be
that will tell you how big your error can be at most
ok thanks i ll look for the theorem. i guess i use x in [0,1] for that part
yes
@low locust i don't have the thing for computing the error, it's missing from all the notes i have
i mean i can google and search on internet
or wait for someone else to pop in, in case u dont know how to do it from top of ur head
for new people coming: I'm asked to approximate $\sqrt {1+x}$ with Maclaurin polynomial of the 2nd degree and estimate the error, for $x \in [0, 1]$, I got the polynomial but idk what to do about the error. if you know a hint let me know, thx
atif
The error is due to the remainder
Ul have to calculate a 3 fold integral
Or use this
yes i think im supposed to use that
but then the prob will be to find z
whats z?
Random constant that exists between x and c
well its maclaurin so theres no c here i suppose?
its just x everywhere instead of x-c
oh c is just 0
yea
The better way would be to do the integral tbh
U can look more into taylors theorem for more detail
Yes
but do u kno perhaps if it helps that im given that x is in [0,1]
for this z thing
Since c = 0 try taking z as x ig
ah perhaps i dont need any particular z, i can try myb just bounding it
the error is higher the farther away from the center (x = 0) your input is, so this is useful for bounding the error
i see, thx
so using this, and im asked for the 2nd degree plynomial, then i need to find the third derivative right?
do i have R_2 is what im asking
yes
Or u could evaluate this 
ah ty but i think im asked to do this remainder stuff. thanks for letting me know that it's doable like that
and good to see we got same numbers
@forest sky can u take a look at the tex compilation below. i need to bound that right?
ok your welcome

where did the x+5 come from?
ah typo
i got $$R_2 = \frac{1}{16} \frac {x^3}{\sqrt{(1+z)^5}}$$
and i probably shouldnt put x
note that the remainder formula says that the remainder at x is dependent on (x)^3 as well as f'''(k), where k is some number between c = 0 and x
atif
ok. so now we can create a bound by choosing the value of z between 0 and 1 that makes the formula largest
atif
so the whole fraction is increasing
well note that if the denominator is increasing then the fraction is decreasing
so we can now say that $$R_2(x) = \frac{1}{16} \frac {x^3}{\sqrt{(1+z)^5}} \le\frac{1}{16} \frac {x^3}{\sqrt{(1)^5}}$$
cloud
yes, i believe so
im asking bcs i never saw this done before
ok great
thanks for the lesson
much appreciated

when going into this problem are the ones under the x axis going to be negative?
or should i just add them all up since they were given to me all positive and divide by 3?
So let's try to reason. Choose a point between -2 and -1 what do you think the value of f(x) is
yes
so from [0,1] it's actually -9/4

8x-2=7(-3y)
it depends what "solve for x" means
if you're solving for a numerical value then yeah you can't
but "solve for x" can also mean isolate x
like if you have 2x=4y, it would become x=2y
thats also solving for x
yeah
btw
i feel like textbook questions are notorious for crappy wording

Hi! i need help on this question! I don't understand where I went wrong. I calculated both -20(cos(20)) and 20(sin(20)) and put both of those answers as my vector but I'm still getting it wrong.
,calc [-20 * cos(20 * pi/180), 20 * sin(20 * pi/180)]
Result:
[-18.793852415718, 6.8404028665134]
,calc -20 * cos(20)
Result:
-8.1616412362678
your calculator was set to radians

diff eq question, the bottom question it shows is right but i just need help understanding how to do the top 2, because when i follow the solution curve my answer is always wrong (ill explain one sec)
i started guessing because i was so confused my bad lol but basically
this is how you follow the curve right?? (like for y(0) = 0)
because if thats how you do it, then for part a) y(1) should = something positive like 1
and y(-1) should = something negative like -0.5?
I tried 0 but its wrong.. and also I tried -0.5
and -1
i only have 15 attempts left lol
ikr im so lost
idk wth it wants from me
kk one sec
yeah i tried both 0 for a
i posted it on my class discussion board and i got a not very helpful answer lol
yeah
but i think i know what its getting at actually....
because for c), the solution line gives the equation y = -x - 1
and then you plug in the points
so maybe i have to find the equation for the solution line and then plug in the points?
bc thats what i did to solve c
nah no equation given
im not sure how to find an equation for a im ngl...
i got one of them
its ok i got extra credit i give up lol

hello! i need help on 12 i get u have to use law of sines but im having trouble with how to use the angles to plug into sin
try drawing it first
sum of 3 angles in a triangles alway equal 180
yes the other angle is 47
bet
can you show your work?
and the longest side always face the biggest angle
ah sorry, misread the question
ohhhhh
thank you !! is there a specific reason why?
Law of Sines state that: in any triangle, the ratio of the length of a side to the sine of its opposite angle is constant
so if one side of a triangle is longer, the sine of the opposite angle must also be larger, meaning the angle itself is larger
OH so you would use angles 47 and 82??
yep

what would be the LCD here?
Please don't occupy multiple help channels.
trying to figure it out
im not great with this my guess was 2 3(1x+1) i have no real clue
ahh
ur right
2*3(1x+1)
but thats not exactly 6(x+1)
okay so i can use that to cancel it all out?
alright
that seems cool thanks
ah shit im a bit lost again, so i tried doing the amth i got x = 11 @wind basalt
but i tried plugging it in the equation and it didnt work
i did the cancelling out and shit and ended up with 7(6) - 1(3x+1) = 4(2) simplified to x = 11
7(6) -** 1(3x+1)** = 4(2)
middle part is incorrect
oh
i thought if 1/2 then the 2 would cancel out to make it 3(x+1)
im not sure
😩
thats correct
what
poor wording
sir
yeah soz
and you're disregarding order of operations now because of it
im sorry yeah it doesnt look right to me either ive been at this for like 8 hours today cuz its all review stuff from way back when i was in high school 😭
multiplication takes priority before subtraction
you can't subtract the 3 like that before multiplying
👍
holy crap
im so sorry
thats just a simple mistake

What does it mean to take the derivative both sides?
I mean if two functions are equal, ofc their derivative will be equal makes perfect scence
but how do we know that the lhs and the rhs would always have functions
for example x^2+y^2=10
If we take derivative both sides
the logic here is?
like say, f(x) = g(x) so f`(x) = g`(x), makes perfect scence, if two functions are equal for all valuse of x, then their graphs will be equal and derivative will be equal and anti-derivative will be equal
sure
Here we are treating 10 as a function of x?
and is this always true, can you always take derivatives of both sides?
Anti derivative would not be equal cuz of that +c
It is just a constant which become 0 in derivation
But you can see it like a constant function of x
oh ok yes
alright
and can we always just call both sides as functions of x?
and say that they are equal?
cause what dose equality mean
Well, i have a doubt, cuz the example you gave has y in it
like when I say x +1 = 10, find x, I am asking someone to find x for which this is true
It would be treated like a constant wrt x
Yeah
It does not mean that for all values of x, x+1 will be equal to 10
No
So here in x + 1 = 10, if I take the derivative of both sides, I get 1 = 0
so we can't always take derivative both sides?
Why is calculus so hand wavy
lol
Derivatives is a deal with function, not equation i don't think you can use it like that
Cuz derivatives work in a cases of all x
oh yeah got it, a relation is a subset of the cartesian product of two sets, and cartesian products relate TWO things in a tuple and functions is a subset of relations so one would need two variables
Got it
Oh, yeah thoses are the words
That also explains why you can take derivative of relations, cause after all they are two things related to each other by some relation
That is a very circular statemetn
lol
But you get the idea
Ok thank you got it

this might be a dumb question but for part a) why is the surface area 2000h
Well firstly it's wrong because surface area is measured in length², not length, but let's assume they mean 2000cm rather than 2000
Secondly, do you agree that the surface area is the product of these two lengths?
u don't hv to add the area of the other sides?
thats the Lateral Surface Area
It says that it's a water trough so it's safe to assume they just mean the surface exposed to the air
it's not the same thing?
oh ok
then yes i agree
Well now you have one length, so how do you find the other?
oh so it's just 2h*1000
Yes (except with units)

halp
What is the probability you get 2 sixes if u chose the biased die?
random
? What do u mean random?
I am asking for the very basic step
fine
Try other easier exercises first and learn some basic
this problem like hard?
No, but is more advanced for your current knowledge
it seems hard compared to the permutation and combination ive dun at school
You know permutations but not how to get probability of getting 2 sixes in a die?
You tell me
its 4/9 right
Ok
So how much probable is that you got the biased die to get 2 sixes with respect to the normal die?
How so?
cuz there are 2 die
But you got 2 sixes
im comin to that
You have extra information
2 vs 4, how many times is 4 bigger than 2
2 times biger
Now here
0.14 times bigger?
4/9 is bigger than 1/16
ye
64/9
Can you put your thought process?
so
if i divide 4/9 with 1/16
its 4/9/1/16
can be written as
4/9 times 16/1
which is 64/9
Wait, sry i am dislexic so i didnt notice your mistake
exactl6
i was wonderin
Lol
Ok so
The probability of getting the second die is 16 times greater than getting the normal die
So the total is
wait bro
the odds of gettin 2 sixes with the second die
is 16 times greater
not gettin the die itself rite
alr
Because that would be the total, you dont know which die u cchose
16/17 is 16 times bigger than 1/17
heh
Out from 1
😕
1 is the totality
ye
Chose normal die and biased
16 times bigger
Dont get confused again with chances of getting to sixes with normal die
So ok
We got 2 sixes
And we want to know the third six right?
ye
Ok, we dont know which die we chose, but we know the probability
1/17 and 16/17
If the die is normal
The probability pf getting one six is…
1/6
16/17*2/3
Perfect
k
And the other die is 1/4
So the first die would be twice as big
Right?
Twice means 2 times
2 times and 1 time
ye
That is a total of 3 times
So out of a total of 3 times
2 times will be one die
1 time will be the other
2/3 + 1/3
alr
Same in the other example

guys, how do i do this?
Do you know properties related to diagonals of a parallelogram?
Apply the same formula as you did in a)
The distance from A TO B SHOULD BE THE SAME AS THE DISTANCE FROM C TO D
I suppose
true but not really what you want to apply to efficiently calculate the coordinates of D
@timber patio Has your question been resolved?
which property? is it the 2 equal sides?
which equal sides
true, but not the property most useful here
ohhh
focus on the properties relating to the diagonals
is it the diagonals meet at one point
the 2 diagonals meet at a point which is the midpoint of AC
missing the other half of that property
thank you so much

btw parallelogram should have 2 parallel lines right?
AB parallel to CD, and AD parallel to BC
and parallel lines are supposed to have the same gradient right, why is my gradient of AB and CD different 
the opposite sides are parallel to each other, even more so that the opposite sides have opposite vectors (vector AB = - vector CD)
what gradients did you find?
oops wait
i just realised i haven't gotten the D
is the line for AB and BC supposed to be right angled?
no, that's in a rectangle
rectangles are parallelograms but not the converse
okayy thank you so much. i thought they're right angled 
tho I haven't checked if this one is a rectangle

So far I have that $\sigma^i:k\rightarrow(k+i)\text{mod m}$ where k is an element in the m-cycle
I wrote out an example of \sigma = (1 2 3 4 5) and \sigma^2, \sigma^3, \sigma^4 but not sure how to start the proof
Soap_Opera
does m cycle means it repeats every m elements?
So write the condition i relatively prime to m
What does it mean in terms of the gcd?
gcd(i, m) = 1
So, use that
correct
How does that definition fit into cycle notation?
Solve for x
Sin x= cos x
Are you hinting at cancellation property?
gcd(i, m) = 1 implies that for some integers x and y, 1 = xi + ym. How do I use that to help with this proof?
@neon yew Has your question been resolved?
$\sigma^i : k\rightarrow k+i, \sigma^i : k+i\rightarrow k+2i, ..., \sigma^i : k+(m-1)i\rightarrow k$ So there are m mappings that are distinct if and only if each k + ai is distinct
Soap_Opera
Since we are working with modulo m, that means each k + ai is distinct if $(k+ai)mod m\not\equiv (k+bi) mod m$
Soap_Opera
So then, can I write ((k + ai) - (k + bi)) mod m $\equiv$ 0 so i(a - b) $\equiv$ 0

I need to use Riemann Sum to solve this question, but how do i know what the function is?
You don't need a function, you just need to pick out 5 rectangles that are equidistant apart and then sum them up. They're just asking for an estimate from x= 0 to x = 10.
Remember that your delta x is going to be (b - a)/n. So in this case, what is b, what is a, and what is n?
delta x is 2, right?
yep bingo, since (10 - 0)/5 = 2
im just stuck on the step right after with summing it and multipling each by delta x
,rccw
Ok that looks fine. What are you confused about? That you don't have a defined function?
yes!
You can just estimate the value based on where it is on the graph.
f(2) is easy : f(2) = 3
f(4) is a little trickier so at this point you'll have to do your best to look and check. f(4) ~ 1.9 give or take
since they didn't give you the actual function, you'll just have to do your best to interpret what the y value is for each of your points
since dx is 2
because (10 - 0)/5 = 2
we look at the graph and find those values
Hi there please to just flat out provide the answers. We want students to do their own work
!nosols
As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
Ah my bad, only trying to help
of course! Glad to have your help 🙂 Just a rule of the server
Sami, I can help you follow the lines to the very end answer (Total area)
Without calculations, would you like me to?
But i would check these values again, they're off a bit.
so i have to manually check them ?
Yeah, tired I am
(that's my bad)
With nothing else provided? Yes.
But it's not hard. Just look at your x values and then determine what the y would be based on where it lands
okay, thank you

what've u tried
Assume that g has maximal domain
i.e. you can't just assume the domain is [0, 8] because you can do better
assuming maximal domain is also crucial for finding the range of the function
How does the 1/3 affect the domain or range
maybe you could try coming up with a concrete example of f and then plot the function and see?
the range? nope
But the 1/3 affect the y values right?
sounds like a reasonable claim
So the range is affected
So what does the 1/3 do?
for a given input x, it divides f(x) by three
recall that every real number can be divided by any other real number
except zero
Im confused 😕
So let's say when you plug in 1 to f you get 3, i.e. f(1)=3
Then g(1) = f(1)/3 = 3/3 = 1
So is the domain [-12,24]
Are you sure you mean the domain or the range?
Domain

Is undefined ≠ 6 is considered false?
Or true?
That statement just doesn't make sense
Oh I'm sorry, I'm solving rational inequalities
Then we need to check it in a number line
You should send the entire context but I don't mean it makes no sense without context, that just is not a valid statement so you cannot say its "True" or "False".
You cannot say undefined = or != number. You would need to word it differently (I would need the context to give a more specific way of how you should word it)
What do the instructions say at the top
You would say (2x-3)/(x+7) is undefined at x=-7 (and hence not draw it on the number line)

Need help with college algebra! I need to complete the piecewise functions for this graph. The first and third are getting marked as incorrect. I've tried using the formulas for slope and point slope form but I can't get the right answers.
It's how you are factoring out the term, y = (1/2)x - 5.5 is the correct equation but when you factored out the 1/2, that was where the mistake was
Can you elaborate? sorry, very rusty with math
So from y = (1/2)x - 5.5, you are trying to factor out 1/2, correct?
Also, as a note on how to check your work, take the current equation you have, y = (1/2)(x - 5.5) and distribute the 1/2 and you'll see that it's not equal to y = (1/2)x - 5.5
I see my mistake now! thank you so much for the help!

Im not really sure what to do here
Like I know we need it in the form a < p < b
Or p < a
And im guessing I need to get the discriminant of some quadratic and set it > 0
But im not sure specifically what to do
Just have these ideas
Cant you just set fp = 1 then solve for p as indeed the discriminant > 0
Watskeburt thijs 😄
Oke I will try
(2x^2 + 9x + p)/(x + 3) = 1
(2x^2 + 9x + p) = x + 3
2x^2 + 8x -3 + p = 0
Discriminant is b^2 - 4(a)(c)
8^2 - 4(2)(p - 3) > 0
64 - 8p + 24 > 0
-8p + 88 > 0
88 > 8p
p < 11
So thats my answer?
The thing austin explained last time
This is different tho, no?
Ohhhhhh
So we have a hole at p = 9, right?
Aaaaaa
Yeah sry you didnt know cause it was a part of a previous question
I didnt think it was important but I see now it was
So my bad
Yeah still should have known but i also didnt pay attention to it so also my bad haha
But am I correct?
theres a hole at p = 9?
Removable discontinuities are always holes right?
Sortof
Yes there us a hole at x= -3 but it isnt the cause here
Because it is a ‘removable’ diacontinuity youll see that the graph turns into a linear function
For p = 9
Therefore there is only 1 intersection point by definition do you know what I am trying to say?
I think so
If you can factor when p=9, then f_p would just be a line equation
And two lines can have only one point of intersection
Or infinity
Ok I see now
That makes sense it cant intersect a line equation twice
Alright I think I understand everything now haha
Thank you so much everyone!!
❤️

Can you add two piecewise functions?
In some sort of "piecewise function arithmetic"?
I am asking because the general solution to the 1D wave equation is $\frac{f(x-ct)+g(x+ct)}{2}$
normalAtmosphericPa=101,325
and when I apply the initial condition, which is a piecewise function, I will get two piecewise functions $f,g$
normalAtmosphericPa=101,325
So, by D'Alembert's formula, how do I complete the solution?

Hello im trying to solve problem 14
this is trignometry similar right triangles
all i need to figure out is how to find either the missing leg or hypotenus so i could solve for pythagoerean theorem
any help is appreciated
You can probably use sin, cos, tan to find the values I think
ohh ok we havent went over that and its been a few years since ive used sin cos tan
Like cos25 = b/c
b is given, you know what is the value of cos25 so find C
one sec
use the triangle given to you
@celest monolith find sin25 and cos25 value from 1st triangle
Then use those values to find a and c in second triangle
ok ill do that rn
yea im having trouble figuring out how it correlates i understand the sides are equal but what the 0.47 etc is for
sides are not equal
@celest monolith try this
sin = p/h
cos = b/h
p,b,h are given in first triangle
ratio of corresponding sides are equal
ok
you could incorporate trig into this, but not explicitly needed
Or you can directly do as @nimble blaze said
p/b of first triangle= p/b of second triangle
But for your understanding I said try with sin, cos etc
Which side
yea i meant c
sorry
i used sin
to find 25
i think i shouldve done cos instead
Its should not come 21.5
Can you show what you did?
yea ill do a paint thing rq i dont have discord on my phone
Ohkk
i was following a video that used cos sine so i prob did the whole thing wrong
No worries, show what you did , I will help
Don't find sin value . Look at first triangle what are p,b and h in first triangle can you write them down here in chat
Let's take cos25 , it will be b/h right
right
51/c
51/c ok
yea
Now find C
Follow the same for tan25 = p/b in first triangle, and in second it will be a/b. You can find a from that
yea im trying to figure out i miscalculated that
1.1*51 I don't know how to use calculator in this bot server
yea i see what i did i had 1.0 instead of 1.1 thank you
i multipled the 1.5 with 51
i appreciate the help!
No worries
Use this to get a
oh ok ill write that down in my notes i have to get ready for school thanks again!
Your welcome

Asymptotes
So I'm confused about the range
Cause I was told
range:{y | y ≠ H.A. values}
H.A = Horizontal Asymptotes
is this not accurate
it is not, unfortunately
the range (or image) of a function is the set of all outputs the function produces
the f(x) shown has a hole at x = 3, where it would be equal to 1 without the hole
hole?
yes, a removable discontunuity if you prefer
I have no idea what is that also
it also outputs a value of 1 nowhere else, so the range does not include 1
ah, my mistake
Well my teacher didn't even explain how to graph it or anything so yeah
there's a hole at x = 3 because f(3) = 0/0
Can I interpret the "hole" as restriction?
this is indeterminant, so the function does not exist at that point
the range is the set of all output values of f(x), yes
hm, what is not clicking? 
The concept
of range?
yea
So Rational Function's Domain are the restricted values of what "x" cannot be that makes the denominator 0 since that will be undefined
correct
