Can someone please suggest me a graphing website

#

I need to graph these points for a statistics project tomorrow but the website I'm on isn't really working

#

I need to make a scatter plot

shy smelt
#

You could use excel or google spreadsheets, lots of information about them online

deep lance
#

Thanks I'll try that out, I was forgetting about google spreadsheets

toxic bone
#

Not sure how to do 3a

odd edgeBOT
vale vapor
#

where are you stuck?

wise idol
#

notice that 25^x is the square of 5^x

feral halo
#

25^x
= (25)^x
= (5^2)^x
= (5)^2x
= 5^2x

toxic bone
#

Idk where to go from here

feral halo
#

= (5^x)^2

#

wth

#

u can't do that

#

if u log left side

#

u log right side

#

and log 0 is undefined

#

also when u log left side

#

u can't split each term into logs

#

it's log all of the left side

wise idol
feral halo
wise idol
#

log(a+b) ≠ log(a) + log(b)

wise idol
toxic bone
#

What about this??

wise idol
#

-3*5^x is one whole term

#

you cant just shift -3

#

did you try u=5^x

toxic bone
#

idk what you mean by the letter u

wise idol
#

you know how 25^x is the square of 5^x right

toxic bone
#

yea

wise idol
#

so if 5^x is some "u" then 25^x would be u²

#

right

toxic bone
#

right

wise idol
#

so how about you replace 5^x = u and convert it into an equation of u

#

then when you find the values of u you can say 5^x=u and solve for x

#

does that sound right

toxic bone
#

yea ill try that

is the ans h=1 or h does not equal to 1 ?

#

can anyone help pls

wooden gorge
wooden gorge
royal frost
#

why can't we apply it and solve the system?

wooden gorge
haughty fulcrum
# royal frost

inconsequential, but check entry 2,2 in the upper triangular matrix

royal frost
#

I also know that linear indepedncy must have full rank

wooden gorge
#

add this to your notes -> "...to be linearly independent, must only have c1 = c2 = c3 = 0 as solution"

royal frost
#

like c1=c2=c3=0 where v1....vn must be non zero ?

wooden gorge
#

Yes c1 = c2 = c3 = 0 must be the case, if you have three linearly independent vectors satisfying the equation c1v1 + c2v2 + c3v3 = 0

royal frost
#

alr they must equal zero when v1 v2 v3 are non zero got it

#

Thanks

it is actually unrelated but I wanna check

is this is the correct formula for Gram schimdt process?

Someone will have the syllabus of the IMO Olympiad, please, and thanks

wooden gorge
#

what do you mean by dot product of a scalar times vector?

#

$x_2 \cdot v_1 \cdot v_1$?

clever fjordBOT
wooden gorge
#

And you can check why projection of v_1 on x_2 is what is written

royal frost
royal frost
wooden gorge
#

no, ||v_1|| implies norm of a vector, or simply it's magnitude

#

(x_2 . v_1) is the size of the projection vector of x_2 on v_1, and (v_1)cap ,i.e., the direction of the projection vector, is given by (v_1)/(its magnitude = ||v_1||)

Log thumbsupanimegirl

vapid violet

i cant use log

quasi sparrow
#

Why not

vapid violet
#

thats next year

#

teach wont let

quasi sparrow
#

What

#

Oh teacher

#

16th root then

vapid violet
#

i dont know how

oak crown
#

just take the 16th root

#

or raise it to the 1/16 power

vapid violet
#

what u mean

oak crown
#

something like $\qty(\qty(1+\frac{r}{4})^{16})^{1/16}=\qty(\frac32)^{1/16}$

#

pardon the absolute dogshit latex

clever fjordBOT

lmao

#

ai

#

so if i get like a power of 15 of something i raise it to 1/15

quasi sparrow
#

a * 1/a = 1 for all nonzero a yes

vapid violet

molten skiff
#

teacher has given us a bonus question that we have until the end of the year to solve, and we will get bonus points for solving it.
it is a riddle.
it goes something like this:
"A king of an ancient land asked his engineer to build him a bridge to replace the knotted up bridge which makes the crossing of the river difficult, with the proper measuring tools missing, the engineer can only measure the width of the river using steps of the kings servants.

how could the engineer calculate the width of the river (AB) using 4 of the king's servant?"
i dont have an answer to this question available, so anything goes, i guess.

molten skiff
#

if something doesnt make sense, i translated this on my own, so feel free to ask.

#

I have not been able to come up with a solution

molten skiff
#

servant i guess

#

translating error

dense moth
#

Okk !

tepid pelican
#

one of the servants could stand at point B and another one (call him C) could move alongside the river until the angle BCA is 45°, then the width of the river is same as the distance between B and C

#

though I dont know what tools exactly are available

low locust
#

I assume you are really only allowed to count steps somehow

#

I'm thinking something with having one servant go over the bridge and another mimics the motions or something

odd edgeBOT
#

@molten skiff Has your question been resolved?

molten skiff
#

i dont wanna clog up this room, if someone sees this, DM me if you have a question, maybe the C angle approach works, ill have to ask the teacher though, because im not sure how youll be able to measure the angle of ACB

signal carbon
#

you aren't allowed to directly measure angles

#

otherwise you don't even need the knotted bridge

eternal flower
#

can anyone walk me through finding the asymptote?

mystic saffron
#

So let’s start with

#

What is an asymptote

eternal flower
#

an x or y value that the graph cannot be at any point

mystic saffron
#

hm sort of

#

lets consider what happens to f(x) as x tends to infinity

eternal flower
#

mhm

mystic saffron
#

so if we plugged infinity into the equation

#

we'd have -2(1/4)^infinity

#

and what can you say about (1/4)^infinity

eternal flower
#

that it will never be equal to the asynptote?

#

terrible spelling there

mystic saffron
#

we'll get there but

#

what can you say specifically about (1/4)^(a big number)

#

as the power gets bigger, what happens to numbers between 0 and 1

#

for example (1/4)^2 = 1/16
(1/4)^3 = 1/64
..

#

what do you see happening here

eternal flower
#

they get smaller

mystic saffron
#

yes

#

so if we have the power as infinity

#

what can we say that (1/4)^infinity is tending towards

eternal flower
#

zero? or just a smaller and smaller number?

mystic saffron
#

yeah exactly

#

its getting smaller and smaller

#

so will tend toward zero but never reach it

eternal flower
#

yeah

mystic saffron
#

so -2(1/4)^(x-2) will tend toward zero

#

but never reach it

#

so whats the asymptote

eternal flower
#

0

mystic saffron
#

yup

#

y = 0

eternal flower
#

but i don't understand how that makes sense with the equation

mystic saffron
#

could you explain what u dont understand

#

as x gets very big, (1/4)^(x-2) gets very small, so f(x) -> -2(0) = 0

eternal flower
#

oh wait now i see it

#

i wasn't considering the fact that 1/4 is a fraction

mystic saffron
#

yh

eternal flower
#

okay i think i get it now

#

im gonna keep working and if i get confused again ill come back

#

goodbye and thank you !

Hello! What does absolute value help us with in terms of calculus?

devout kayak
#

It is my first time learning algebra in preparation for calculus in May. Is there any way you could help me understand a bit more than that?

strange aspen
devout kayak
#

That is correct, I am attempting to learn more about functions, yes!

strange aspen
devout kayak
#

Yes! Aren’t they functions that have discontinuity?

strange aspen
devout kayak
#

Interval meaning domain values?

strange aspen
#

yea

devout kayak
#

What’s important about piecewise functions and why did you bring them up

strange aspen
devout kayak
#

And how is that important to the calculus

strange aspen
#

cuz when dealing with problems including absolute value
sometimes you need to how it is defined

#

specifically in limit problems

devout kayak
#

Oh! Could you give me an example

strange aspen
#

as an example

devout kayak
#

Let’s talk about derivatives

Follow syllabus and read books

#

Khan academy is shorter but less detailed

devout kayak
#

What would you consider the easiest practice problem in calculus

quasi sparrow
#

Go read books to learn foundations

devout kayak
#

I have Stewart’s calculus 6e

devout kayak
#

What do I do with that

devout kayak
shell haven
#

To evaluate the derivative of x with respect to x

shell haven

brazen raptor
#

How do you do this question?

odd edgeBOT
brazen raptor
#

I'm not sure where to start

amber schooner
#

did you find g’’

#

recall that g concave up -> g’’ > 0

brazen raptor
#

how would you find g"?

amber schooner
#

by differentiating g twice

#

can you tell me what g’ is

brazen raptor
#

that would be f(x)

amber schooner
#

indeed

#

now what is g’’

brazen raptor
#

f'(x) ig

amber schooner
#

you guess?

#

say it with conviction

brazen raptor
#

well cuz how would I find the 2nd derivative if I don't have a function

#

f'(x) would be the derivative tho...

#

but idk how to move on from there...

amber schooner
#

of f sure

#

but it’s also the second derivative of g

#

and the question asks for g concave up

#

hence we need to find the intervals where g’’ > 0

#

but since g’’ = f’

#

this is no different than finding where f’ > 0

#

what does f’ > 0 mean graphically

brazen raptor
#

the function is increasing

amber schooner
#

and where is that graphically

brazen raptor
#

-4 to 1

amber schooner
#

no

brazen raptor
#

huh

amber schooner
#

try again

amber schooner
brazen raptor
#

so would it be -4 < x < 1 ?

amber schooner
#

nope

#

again

#

that’s f > 0

#

not f’

brazen raptor
#

o

#

ok

#

actually

#

huh

#

-4 to -2?

amber schooner
#

sure that’s one part of the answer

brazen raptor
#

ok

#

then the other part would be 2 to 6 right?

amber schooner
#

yep

#

so your final answer is..

brazen raptor
#

-4 < x < -2 and 2 < x < 6

#

just to make sure

#

f' > 0 is the same as f is concave up?

amber schooner
#

nope

#

f’ > 0 implies f is increasing

#

but in this problem f’ = g’’ hence f’ > 0<—> g’’ > 0

brazen raptor
#

o ok

amber schooner
#

so if f’ > 0 then g’’ > 0 so g is concave up

brazen raptor
#

ok i think I get it

#

tysm!

amber schooner
#

you’re welcome

#

have a nice night

brazen raptor
#

have a good night!

hallow kraken
odd edgeBOT
hallow kraken
#

i need help with this

#

mostly with part b

pastel orbit
hallow kraken
#

i'm completely lost

#

for the first part

#

i use the cross product right

#

and then ijk then the derivative of x , y and z then lastly function and make it equal to 0

#

but for B

#

what does the question even mean

pastel orbit
pastel orbit
#

the problem is asking you to find such a function f, if F is conservative

hallow kraken
#

what would be the first step

#

i know i have use the derivative for the function

#

but it's asking for the whole rate of change of the function

pastel orbit
#

the gradient of a function $f$ is $\grad f = \left(\pdv{f}{x}, \pdv{f}{y}, \pdv{f}{z} \right)$

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

therefore, you are looking for a function $f$ such that $$\pdv{f}{x} = \mathbf{F}_x = 2xy, \pdv{f}{y} = \mathbf{F}_y = x^2 + 2yz, \pdv{f}{z} = \mathbf{F}_z = y^2$$

hallow kraken
#

i think i have an idea but i think it's wrong

pastel orbit
#

is this clear?

hallow kraken
#

yes

#

my plan right

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

hallow kraken
#

i use the deriviate of fx on each right then make it equal to 2xy?

#

then i apply derivate of y on all of them and make it equal to x^2 +2yz

#

but like

#

what am i solving for

pastel orbit
#

sorry, I'm back

cold sage
#

if you look at Fx
then i find f(x,y,z)=x^2y+g(y,z)
and youll get similar for the other components
once you have them youll have to look at them all to determine what those functions like g are

pastel orbit
#

yeah, that's basically it

#

you wanna do it one step at a time

hallow kraken
#

does it matter the order?

pastel orbit
#

no

#

,, \pdv{f}{x} = 2xy

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

is our first equation

hallow kraken
#

2y right

pastel orbit
#

you can integrate both sides to find part of what f is

hallow kraken
#

OH

pastel orbit
#

plus a function that depends only on y and z

#

then you repeat with the other variables

hallow kraken
#

so it would be x^2 * y + K?

pastel orbit
#

and when you differentiate back, you kill the constant?

hallow kraken
pastel orbit
#

when we differentiate in terms of x, any function solely in terms of y and z is just 0

pastel orbit
#

that is, it is a function of y and z

hallow kraken
#

ahhh

#

i see tysm

#

wait so what does this mean

#

cause i have the constant K

#

but what does it change with my methods

pastel orbit
#

you will use the other two equations to solve for the constant of integration g(y, z)

#

,, \pdv{f}{y} = x^2 + 2yz \ \pdv{f}{z} = y^2

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

these two

pastel orbit
#

you've found an f such that grad f = F

hallow kraken
#

wait can you give me like 2 mins please

pastel orbit
#

sure!

hallow kraken
#

let me try and come up with an answer

#

I got this right

#

and I have to solve for the constants?

pastel orbit
#

just one is enough for now

#

we're going to do this one step at a time

#

so like, you know that f(x, y, z) = x^2y + g(y, z) now, right?

#

you're gonna use the equation $\pdv{f}{y} = x^2 + 2yz$ next to find what $g(y, z)$ is

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

and the way to do this is to recognize that since we know $f(x, y, z) = x^2y + g(x, y)$, we have that $\pdv{f}{y} = x^2 + \pdv{g}{y} = x^2 + 2yz$

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

so $\pdv{g}{y} = 2yz$

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

and now you integrate again, to find g as a function of y and z, plus an integration constant that only depends on z: h(z)

#

and do that one more time, and you're done happy

#

does that make sense? kongouderp

hallow kraken
#

okay i think i understand it now

#

let me try one more time

#

just for confirmation

#

i'll be fast

pastel orbit
hallow kraken
#

is the answer 2xy + (y^2)*z - (y^2)z + K?

pastel orbit
#

hold on

#

if you differentiate that wrt z, do you get back y^2?

ah...

#

no, you get 0

#

so this cannot be right

#

what did you get g(x, y) to equal?

hallow kraken
#

sorry for the handwriting

pastel orbit
#

okay, g(x, y) step looks good

#

g(x, y) = y^2z + h(z)

#

that's good

#

I can't really tell what you did at the end kongouderp

hallow kraken
#

the end was so confusing im sorry

pastel orbit
#

oh, I see

#

you're missing smth though

#

,, \pdv{f}{z} = y^2 + \pdv{h}{z} = y^2

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

you omitted the final = y^2, for some reason

pastel orbit
hallow kraken
#

where did that extra y^2 come from

pastel orbit
#

it comes from the fact that

#

,, \pdv{f}{z} = y^2

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

this is because grad f = F

#

so the z component of grad f = F_z = y^2

hallow kraken
#

OHHHH

#

oh my god

#

let me correct that

pastel orbit
hallow kraken
#

oh

#

so i see

#

i just get K at the end?

#

because it will be 0 right

pastel orbit
#

h(z) = a constant K, yes!

hallow kraken
#

oh my

pastel orbit
#

it happens to not depend on z at all

hallow kraken
pastel orbit
#

and you can verify that $f(x, y, z) = x^2y + y^2z + C$ indeed has your gradient

clever fjordBOT
#

fallenstars

pastel orbit
clever fjordBOT

fallenstars

pastel orbit
#

the derivative of a constant is zero

so the antiderivative of 0 is a constant

This is a test question that we get at home, help is needed 🙏

sage harbor
#

x0 = p / q, where

  • p is a factor of -72, the independent term of the polynomial equation
  • q is a factor of 1, the coeficient of x^7
#

So, x0 could be $\frac{\pm1 , \pm2, \pm3, \pm4, \pm6, \pm8, \pm9, \pm12, \pm18, \pm24, \pm36, \pm72}{\pm1}$

clever fjordBOT
sage harbor
#

You have to test each value and then if it results 0, you found a zero x0

#

Then, you can divide the polynomial by (x - x0) or use the Briot Ruffini method to factorize the polynomial

primal ruin
#

wait, but what would happen if I divide that entire equation by x+1

sage harbor
#

You will have a polynomial of degree 6, that is, the highest value of all the monomials is x^6

#

And then, you can apply the same thing again

#

Find a root of the polynomial -> Divide by x - x0 / Briot Ruffini -> Repeat

#

If you find more than one root, you can describe as (x - x0) . (x - x1) and divide the polynomial, so you will have less work to do

primal ruin
#

wait

#

it's different since that x-int is a multiplicity of 2

sage harbor
primal ruin
#

yes!

sage harbor
#

Well, then you can divide the polynomial by that, (x+1)² = x² + 2x + 1

#

It will be a lot of work, but factorizing that polynomial is not simple without tricky methods catcutethink

primal ruin
#

my teahcer hasnt taiught me that yet

acoustic karma
#

Hi I need help getting started on answering on solving this equation

acoustic karma
#

|x-9| = |x+6|

#

I just don't know what to do, I flip the signs of both equations? I create branches of either or or what:(

#

Plus when I try isolating the variable they cancel out so I'm just left with my sum equaling nothing

signal carbon
#

|x-9| = |x+6| means that x-9 = x + 6 or x - 9 = -(x+6); convince yourself that this is the correct enumeration of possibilities

#

the first possibility doesn't really work, so you're left with the second

acoustic karma
#

but how does the rest of the equation look like?

#

when i try isolating the variable it just cancels out completely

#

$\x-9

#

$\x-9$

this is in reference to your 4th step

viscid flint

always (well, absolute value)

verbal cobalt
#

precisely my point

#

it is in fact not always true. so there should be an absolute value there

mystic saffron
#

I was taught to not consider absolute values in indefinite integration

#

Only in definite integration

viscid flint
#

generally we assume the limits of integration are such that those don't matter

verbal cobalt
#

generally the point of indefinite integration is to provide formulas to use when you are definitely integrating. anyways, if you assume some convenient conditions , what you have written looks right

This is an application of net forces

#

You have tension, gravity, and centripetal force

#

So you should know what the net acceleration should be

#

You can choose any arbitrary $\theta$, and if you know the height, you can get the radius of travel.

clever fjordBOT
ember oak
#

Since your only acting forces are tension and gravity, the acceleration can be calculated

#

And with acceleration and radius, you get velocity

#

Then period follows right after

Why do we always to add a limit instead of just integrating straight away?

rapid reef
#

Sometimes direct substitution leads to an indeterminate form

high sandal
#

@rapid reef wdym?

#

In what kind of situations

echo ginkgo
#

wdym by integrating straight away in the first place ?

#

how do you do that with an infinite bound ?

high sandal
#

Without adding a limit, creating an extra variable, replacing it with x and finally replacing it with infinity

#

@echo ginkgo

echo ginkgo
#

that's pretty much computing the limit in my book

high sandal
#

Oh so is it because we dont know exactly what the area will be?

rapid reef
echo ginkgo
high sandal
#

@rapid reef why is it problematic not to add a limit

#

In the case of sin(x)/x

rapid reef
#

Because no limit suggests direct substitution i.e. sin(0)/0 = 0/0 which is indeterminate

echo ginkgo
#

and how do you substitute directly infinity anyway ?

high sandal
#

@echo ginkgo By replacing it with x after integration

#

@rapid reef why 0 and not infinity?

echo ginkgo
high sandal
#

?

#

You would end up in the same exact situation when using a limit as when you dont use a limit anyway

(F(infinity))

echo ginkgo
#

yeah so you're just using limits without saying it

rapid reef
high sandal
#

@echo ginkgo oh Is it some kinda thing that you cant use infinity in cases where you dont have limits

#

@rapid reef I get it, but lets say you added a limit, you wouldnt still be able to replace x with infinity

rapid reef
#

No, but you can employ other methods to determine what the function will converge to as x tends to infinity

echo ginkgo
#

but yeah if the limit doesn't exist, you'll have trouble getting a value out of that

high sandal
#

So really its a notation problem

fair summit
#

I can tell you how to solve it, and you work out the answer yourself. OK?

fiery patio
#

okay

fair summit
#

Now, this is actually quite simple.

#

To solve:
3.5p = 10.5,
You divide both sides by 3.5.

#

oh

#

1.2?

fair summit
#

OK, do you know how to divide both sides by 3.5?

fiery patio
#

ye

fair summit

#

umm

#

10 divided by 3 and 5 divided by 5..????

#

sowwy im dum

#

What I mean, is this:

#

Oh, I see. But we have to finish this question first...

fiery patio
#

oh ok

Hey guys any help with the following:
I need to find an example for a function g: $R to R$ that satisfies the following conditions:

a. g is bounded, b. $lim_{x\to 0}g(x) doesn't exists$, c. $g(x) \neq 0 \forall x\neq 0$

my example was g(x) = sin(1/x)
the second question is given $f(x,y) = (x^2+y^2)g(x)g(y)$ now i need to show that $\lim_{(x,y) \to (0,0)} f(x,y)=0$ but the limits $\lim_{x\to 0}\lim_{y\to 0} f(x,y), \lim_{y\to 0}\lim_{x\to 0} f(x,y)$

I have a question regarding basic plane geometry.

While reviewing lessons for a test, I redid this problem and ran into an issue in understanding my reason for why angle 1 is equal to angle 2, considering the sparse givens only dealing with the lengths of some lines. I double checked it by the official answer source, and it confirmed my answer.

They expected me to give a reason as to why angle 1 was equal to angle 2 by way of vertical angles being equal, yet I couldn’t see why it was reasonable to assume that lines AMB and CMD were straight lines and not broken lines as you see in a hypothetical diagram below

I know they warned me not to make assumptions just by observation of the diagram, but how was I supposed to know that the two lines crossing point M were straight and not broken?

odd edgeBOT
#

@clear rune Has your question been resolved?

clear rune
#

The only givens are that line AM is equal to line BM, and that line CM is equal to line DM

#

NOT that line AB or line CD is straight

ember oak
#

It does not say anywhere that "CD and AB intersect at M"?

#

or anything like that?

sqrt((x-3)/2)+sqrt(2x)=sqrt(x+3)

odd edgeBOT
ebon island
#

i tried moving sqrt((x-3)/2) and sqrt(x+3) together and using the a^2+2ab+b^2 thingy

vale vapor
#

$\sqrt{\frac{x-3}{2}}+\sqrt{2x}=\sqrt{x+3}$

clever fjordBOT
ebon island
#

yes

#

i then got sqrt((x-3)/2) times sqrt(x+3) = (x-3)/-4

#

I then squared all sides to get ((x-3)/2)(x+3)=(x^2-6x+9)/16

#

I multiplied to get ((x-3)(x+3))/2 = ((x-3)(x-3))/16

#

I cancelled and reached the ending of 16(x+3)(x-3)=2(x-3)(x-3)

#

cancelling the rest out would result in the answer of X= -27/7

#

Now my answer, when reput into the original equation

#

is incorrect

#

Im stuck help

#

<@&286206848099549185>

ebon island
#

if your referring to that then I tried making a perfect square trinomial on the two terms

#

if your referring to step 1

#

It was a^2+b^2=a^2+2ab+b^2

ocean bramble
#

you have roots. Usually, you want to square both sides when you have roots

#

in this case, that will result in you having one root instead of 3

#

then, you get said root in one of the members, and the rest on the other, and square both sides again. Then you wont have roots, and you'll be left with a second degree equation.
Is this enough information?

ebon island
#

because If I plug in this root I have then its incorrect

#

its extrenious

ocean bramble
#

okay, my mistake.
When i said "root" in my messages here, i dont mean as "root of the equation", i meant it as a square root

#

you currently have something of the form:
a + b = c
If you square both sides, you will get:
a^2 + b^2 + 2ab = c^2

ebon island
#

yes

ocean bramble
#

so there, the only term that will still be a square root will be the "2ab" that i termed there

ebon island
#

yes

ocean bramble
#

obviously, that line leads to:
2ab = c^2 - a^2 - b^2
Which when you square again, will have no square roots, and (if i didnt fuck it up somewhere) will be a 2nd degree equation

#

Can you solve it with this?

ebon island
#

yes

#

it turns out I just did my work really messy

#

my apologies for asking this dumb question

#

the answer however, is 3?

#

man this question took a bit of brainpower

(6xy^3)/5throot(162x^2y^3)

we have to put this into simplest form

I tried rationalizing the denominator

to get 6y^2*5throot(162^4x^3y^2)

But I got it wrong

Remember that:

$\frac{6xy^3}{\sqrt[5]{162x^2y^3}} = \frac{6xy^3}{(162x^2y^3)^\frac{1}{5}}$

And:

$(ab)^c = a^cb^c$

i'm not seeing how doing anything there is gonna make it simpler honestly

#

i would consider the one on the lft the simplest for already

ebon island

i mean

#

I also dont see a way other than rationalizing the denominator

#

ill see from my teacher

#

but in the meantime

#

I really have no idea if this is the appropriate use for these channels

#

but I have yet another question I am stumped on

#

y=(x+1)/(sqrt( x^2-9x^4))

#

we need to find the domain

#

and I have identified the critical points of 0,-1/3, and 1/3

#

however, they all test negatively

#

I cant find the x's that work with this

#

cause none of them do

or for any c not just 2

I’d guess only when lim f(x) is defined

#

But I’m not so sure

If $lim f(x)$ is defined then $limf(x)^2$ is defined assuming this isn't a rational function with denominator being 0

Is -3/16 sin2x+ 3/8x the same as 3/8x- 1/4 sin2x + 1/32 sin4x for the integral of sin⁴x <@&286206848099549185>

@cursive pewter Has your question been resolved?

And if it's so difficult, you could instead go sin ⁴ x = acos 4x + bcos 2x + c

Solve for a, b, c

cursive pewter
#

Could I have made an error?

wooden gorge
#

Yes

cursive pewter
#

Or maybe the answers are the same but in different forms?

wooden gorge
#

Clearly, you'd be having a cos² 2x term which then leads to a cos 4x term, but you're missing it

#

Also, cos² 2x = (1 + cos 4x)/2 not (1 + cos 2x)/2

Can someone help me quickly prove $\frac{1}{n+1}=\sum^{n}_{p=0}\binom{n}{p}\frac{(-1)^p}{p+1}$?

Try expanding the binomial coefficient and get rid of the p+1 in the denominator

I don't see how $\sum^{n}_{p=1}\frac{(-1)^p}{(p+1)!(n-p)!}=\frac{1}{(n+1)!}$

clever fjordBOT
#

$\sum^{n}_{p=1}\frac{n!(-1)^p}{(p+1)!(n-p)!}=\frac{1}{(n+1)}$ this, right?

clever fjordBOT

#

what you want to prove now

#

You can multiply top and bottom of the fraction on the LHS with n + 1, and move the (n + 1) in the denominator out of the sum

@quick sand Has your question been resolved?

You can change it back to $\sum_{p=0}^n \binom{n+1}{p+1}(-1)^p$

and then reindex

note that $\sum_{p=0}^{n+1}\binom{n+1}{p}(-1)^p = 0$
