what why do we put the number in the brackets
oh dear
to represent what is our input
for the function
say f(x) = my rizz in x days after today
the surface would be a depth of zero, not 1
yes this
the surface is 0 millimeters below the surface
what
how do you get this value
then why is it below the surface
shouldnt it be on the surface
well then that's a language issue, not a maths issue
on the surface is 0 millimeters below the surface if you think about it
0 milimeters below the surface is exactly at the surface
thats what im sayinnnn
yeah so you have t = 0
that's a glorious drawing of the beam going through the surface
and it has less particles the more it goes through it
because some particles get angry and say YOU KNOW WHAT, i'm tired of penetrating the surface
ok so we are calculating f(0) where f is teh function given in the question
yes
thats what im thinkinn
yess
yup
zero to the power of zero sometimes disagrees
lets keep that aside
YAY
(for now)
k gaslighted u into thinking u were wrong 🤣
me when physics
"replace t for 0"
"physics"
bruh
ts just a skill issue not physics issue 💔
physics just estimates everything
where is the estimation vro 🥀
lets see
mircoscope magnification formula
wave interference formula is based on
[ \sin\theta \approx \tan\theta]
k
assume its parralel but its not actually parralel
bro its just a math question its not that deep
ohhhh
when're u taking the sat 🥀
how many faces and edges are there on a cube
august 23rd
edges are not important
alrr
great. u have time
even tho i dont know these questions that look so easy for u 😭 ??
some ppl just come in here and say stuff like 'guys. i have my calc 3 exam in 12 hours how do i do calc1'

now 5 sides
so 841 + 145
,calc (29^2)* 5
Result:
4205
those vertical bars means "absolute value of"
oooo okay
|x - 9| = 18
how split into two cases
two cases?
no
case 1: x-9 = 18
case 2: -(x-9) = 18
or u can do
case 1: x-9=18
case 2: x-9=-18
depending on ur preferance
this one looks easier
okay so
now whatg'
find x
x = 37, x = 1
x - 19 = 18
its not 19
well done
dude
x = 9 + 18e^i*n ✅
i cant enter two solutions
so what is the full question asking
💀
just add the two solutions together then
next time show the full question vro
what are the choices 😭
uhhhh
hint: factor something out
oh man why is the sat so hard
english section is easy just the maths section is hard
gang
anyways
i beg to differ
is it k
no it is not me
its something else
[ \frac{42 \cdot a}{k} + 42 \cdot a \cdot k]
k
42
just 42?
factor means to multiply them?
42a/k + 42ak
[ 42a\left( \frac{1}{k} + k\right)]
k
ohh
but even with chatgpt im struggling so ig its skill issue
if u try hard enough, ull understand it some day

Say I have a complex function f(z). Can I always write f(z) as f(z) = f(x,y) = u(x,y) + iv(x,y). where u and v are real valued functions?
x, y are the real and imaginary components of z?
Yes
I actually think I figured it, given f is analytic we can express f as a power series...
Then we can group real and imaginary parts
Why'd you need that
why not just literally take the real and imaginary part
that works for non-analytic functions
why go through that power series thing
What if you have something like cos(z) I thought or some nasty rational function where it's just hard
u(x, y) = Re(cos(x + iy))
v(x, y) = Im(cos(x + iy))
both u and v are real valued

Is it possible for a complex function that its real part or imaginary part is undefined?
Or does not exist, or am I tripping?
only if f(z) itself is undefined at that point
Oh ok.
if f(z) is defined and is complex, then the result will be a complex number
and every complex number consists of real and imaginary part

Read #❓how-to-get-help for further information on how to ask a good question, and about conduct in the question channels.
the probability that a student is chosen as the school prefct is 0.15,if ther are 11 males and only seniors can be elceted,how many females are there
can someone please help me?
uh, is there a connection between gender and being a prefect?
well you are supposed to find how many females there are based on the number of males and the probability that the person is female
I don't see how it's solvable unless there's some sort of relationship between gender and being a prefect
otheriwse it's like saying
the probability that a student is chosen as the school prefct is 0.15,if ther are 11 people who play Skyrim and only people over 2 meters tall can be elected,how many non-skyrim players are there?
-# loving these pronouns
there's something missing about the way you presented the problem
because otherwise Skyrim and being over 2 meters tall are just as relevant as being male or female
oooh you miswrote the question
oh,i did?
you said the probability that a student is elected
but it's specifically the probability of a female student
do you know the law of total probability?
nope
it's when you divide something into categories such that:
no categories overlap
everything is in exactly one category
so for example
a high school can be partititioned in: freshmen, sophomore, junior, senior
oh so that everyone belongs to oe group only
exactly
know what an "event" is in probability?
it just means a thing that can happen or not happen
here's the rule of total probability:
if the possible events are partitioned into categories P1,P2,...,Pn
then:
$$\mathbb{P}(X)=\mathbb{P}(X|P_1) + \mathbb{P}(X|P_2)+\cdots +\mathbb{P}(X|P_n)$$
gfauxpas
let's give an example
then?
suppose I have a collection of candies
they are either sour or sweet
and I want to know the probability that a candy is broken
then
$$\mathbb{P}(\text{broken})=\mathbb{P}(\text{broken}|\text{sour})+\mathbb{P}(\text{broken}|\text{sweet})$$
make sense?
gfauxpas
do you understand the example?
i think i do
actually i used the wrong notation
it's
$$\mathbb{P}(X)=\mathbb{P}(X \text{and} P_1) + \mathbb{P}(X \text{and} P_2)+\cdots +\mathbb{P}(X \text{and} P_n)$$
gfauxpas
$$\mathbb{P}(\text{broken})=\mathbb{P}(\text{broken and sour})+\mathbb{P}(\text{broken and sweet})$$
gfauxpas
I was using the | incorrectly, anyway
what's the probability of ANYONE being elected prefect?
presumably the prefect election has to have a winner
oh so its like the probability that anyone is elected is ,the total of nominees,plus boys,plus the total nominees plus girls
?
you have the right idea but let's make it precise
assuming a candy is not both sour and sweet, and is either sour OR sweet and not neither
you can split up candies into sour candies and sweet candies
for the election, let's split up the people running for prefect into males and females
it's a partition because math problems don't deal with intersex people and the like
right?
yh
$$\mathbb{P}(\text{prefect is elected})=$$
$$\mathbb{P}(\text{male prefect is elected}) + \mathbb{P}(\text{female prefect is elected})$$
gfauxpas
you also know the probability that a prefect is elected
im confused,because they didnt state the probability for this
they didn't, but, you know it anyway
it's like saying
what's the probability that there will be a president/prime minister victorious in the next election?
100 percent?
exactly
so the probability that a prefect is elected is 100%, or 1
the probability that a male prefect is elected? we dont know yet
prob that a female prefect is elected? they tell us
oh ok
solve for the probability a male prefect is elected now
99.75?
how'd you get that?
first of all, probabilities are always from 0 to 1, or from 0% to 100%
well i did change of subject to get 100-0.15
idk if thats correct
1-0.15, not 100
11
trying to think of how to do this the easiest, simplest way
ok,ill be waiting
what does (SHORT WORK-10 Sec) mean?
youre supposed to do it in 10 seconds?
if you're supposed to do it in 10 seconds, there's some shortcut im not seeing
yh,its a competition question
sample question
i'm going to pass this question to <@&286206848099549185> then because the way im thinking of is time consuming and im pretty sdure there's a shortcut im not seeing
ok
but still continue tho so that ill get the answer
the shorter method can wait
@amber veldt
yeahokay
shortcut way
the probability that a female student is elected
okay
it has to be
the only way that I can see you do this problem
is to assume everyone has an equal chance of being elected
which is idiotic
i might have another way: if only the senior students can be elected, 15% chance of being elected = 15% of total class
equivalently, 85% chance of being elected = 85% of the class = 11 males
does this work?
that's what im saying
the problem is only solvable if you assume every candidate has an equal chance to win
ohh sorry, i thought you meant irrespective of gender
nope, you were on the nose
I was not assumign that because that's not how elections work but
anyway, haseeb will take over now
unfortunately the mathematical world is idealized
so assuming equal chance of election, does this make sense? @analog raven
well, if 85% of the class = 11 males, we can make an equation where x = size of entire class
do you see how?
i think i do
give it a try :)
so basically,85/100 of x =11
85 when simplified is 17,100 is 20
so 17 over 20 of x =11
which gives 12.94?
yep exactly! if you have a calculator, you could do 0.85x = 11 too
i got the same, you can round to 13 here or keep it for now
because next we need to find 15% of class, i.e. 0.15(x)
no, that's the total class size
we need to find the number of women
if 15% of women can get elected, then 15% of the class is women, considering equal chance
yeah 2 lol
i think considering it is short work, you can assume an equal chance and do something like this
thnx
you can also make it faster: we divided by 0.85 and multiplied by 0.15, so just do (11 / 0.85) * 0.15 in one step
but if thats too confusing, better to do it right than do it fast :)

I js don understand this question
What is a term to term rule
There are no common difference
there doesnt need to be
you just need to multiply each value given by the figures in the rule
really
i thought there is always a common difference in arithmatic sequnce
1*2+3=5
given by this rule how do u find 1st term
1?
only if you're not given a rule
well it could be -1*2+3
=1
then 1*2+3 =5
and so on
ic its totally different when u are given a rule
This is a more general definition.
Arithmetic sequences are a special case where the term-to-term rule is "Add m" for some fixed m which is the common difference.
its not nessecary that 1st term n = 1, 2nd term n = 2
wdym 'add m'
m is an integer that must be added,subtracted,divided or multiplied by the first given value to get the next number in the sequence i think
ok so for 2nd term m = 1, for 3rd m = 2 like this
That's not what I meant
ok
i can ask the answer but i want to understand it too, thats why im asking too many q
m is fixed. For any m fixed, say m=4, the rule "Add 4" generates an arithmetic sequence
This is different from this problem, as the rule isn't "Add <insert fixed value here>"
But the idea is the same. You're given starting terms and the way to generate the next term from a previous term.
so basically,you apply the same formula for every new value you find in the sequence
in order to find the next one
do you get it?
yeah
so whats the next numbr in the sequence
we find the next term relative to the previous term
13 multiply 2 then add 3
29
thats it

How do I simplify this? The absolute value signs are so confusing
let u = |x+1| ig
How would that help ?
u cant factor it anyways
its easier to visualise if you sub
@dreamy totem , notice that (-5)^2 = 5^2. Squaring doesnt depend on the sign
so u can safely yeet out the absolute value in the firsst term
oh i see
u cant factorise as quadratic but u can still just simplify
yep

Question 10) is the answer of this question 5!•5!
Yea
It's not, since 0 can be in front
five spots for even. five for odds
can't
Wdym
why
Right
R u asking to me?
not u
Kk
I mean 0925476183 count?
Ig no
i think so
it still alternates even between even and odd?
We r assuming 0 even here
So yeah
if O E O E O E... counts too
Wait then again my answer is correct
Yeah
We have odd first and even first are two cases that why he say multiply by 2
Ok right
I get it
2•5!5!
Considering odd integer first can be case it doesn't violate anything in question
Thankyou guys
you are welcome
Could u guys check other question answer
Question 12) is it P(39,7)
The case is there's no club card in any lineup
So removeing 13 cards we get 39
I have no idea what a club is since I have never played card 😂
7-Permutations from 39 is P(39,7)
Oh
I will give u some information about it not that much tho
There are 4 suits
each suits contains 13 cards
Hearts, diamonds , clubs and spades (they r actually four suits)
So clubs contains 13 cards
Oh okay, your look right, I'm thinking of a counterexample rn
Neither i play it
Yeah, I think you're right, I can't think of any countercase

i tried expanding the denominator for both sin and cos but the 3 angles are ugh
there might be a different approach
yeah
if you let $S = \alpha + \beta + \gamma$, you have $$\sin(\alpha) + \sin(\beta) + \sin(\gamma) = 2 \sin(S)$$
and likewise $$\cos(\alpha) + \cos(\beta) + \cos(\gamma) = 2 \cos(S)$$
okay
try and wrestle this into the form $e^{i \theta} = \cos(\theta) + i \x \sin(\theta)$
so maybe multiply one of the equations by $i$
Oh complex numbers
isn't there a way to do this using Q.E, sequence and series, Trigo, basic maths?
ok yes
then expand and use the two identities

which two identities?
do you mean these two equations?
how do i exactly "use" the equations
i got 6 terms which i tried factorising
after expanding
the thing we are looking for
the sum in question looks like cos(S-alpha)+cos(S-beta)+cos(S-gamma)
Expand all the terms and group the terms with cos(S) and sin(S)
group ?
the terms ?
yes
ok yes i got the answer by this tho thank you

hi
hi 
find max value of f(x)=|x+1|-2|x-1|
What have you tried
do you know what piecewise functions are in general
like ik graphs
bruh ok
then how were you taught the modulus function
like how was it introduced to you
u mean Cases like x>1 etc
I am pretty sure they know but not the terminology (piecewise)
true
yes i mean cases.
write a definition for f(x) that doesnt involve absolute value but does use cases
done
The graph for each interval is different
yeah
show.
done
do you understand the meaning of the word "show"
x<-1
x-3
-1<=x<1
2-x
x>1
-x
this looks wrong to me. show your work.
The graph ??
sorry i was responding to that abput graph
There is an error in the last one
i think all of his sub-expressions are wrong here
The first one is correct i think
yeah -1<=x<1
is 3x😅
for case 3, take x >= 1
would have liked to see it on paper but given op's history of bad handwriting im afraid to ask
yeah
2-x
my god
i just dont like decorating maths
it looks better when complex
shall i write it proper
just show it
first
im not asking for any decoration
im asking to have x's that actually look like x and not n or u or h or k
ty
I'm sorry I was doing so rough work and silly mistakes
im having so much trouble w my goddamn monitor
whats the question bud
btw im Rao

In the third one it is +2
I feel lazy to get up and bring my phone to send u my work also I disconnect from the router and had to use hell slow internet

Someone else is already using this help channel. If you need help with a question, please open your own help channel/thread (see #❓how-to-get-help for instructions).
Now you have your 3 cases, check the slopes of those 3 cases respectively (the coeffecient of x in each case)
If its positive, its an increasing slope. If negative, its a decreasing slope
wat??
yeh
i think id learn that in chapter 8 for me sam
You can open a new help channel this one is already occupied
not you. please leave this channel as this one is already being used
Hey @turbid comet , so sorry for the ping and unrelated chat but this is my first time helping someone here as this question happened to be around my skill level and current knowledge. Is there anything I should note for further questions?
I guess he just don't know the rules
Pls don't be rude explain him
oops i should've used emojis.. i didnt mean to come off as rude
Graphs drawn
now back to your question
Did you note the slopes?
.
I don't think so
I can see angles right?
Instead of finding slope
It's just about find max
Yes, that works too
Now find where it's max and plug it into f(x)
That should be your answer!
plot the 3 cases and find if their graphs are increasing or decreasing
im saying taht 3x-1 graph is the most increasing
[-4,2)
so therefore it increases uptil 1 and then starts decreasing which implies your max is at x = 1 !
i meant range as in -1 >= x > 1.. sorry for the confusion!
oh u mean domain
My terminology is getting rusty
Now just plug it into f(x)
That will give you max value
2
Correct

can someone explain for me why a=b=t because we set t=a+b/2 first , im confused a bit
nah
wdh is this
Its an inequality problem
no u just plug in t, t, c into the formula
you're not assuming a = b = t. you're deliberately replacing a and b with two equal values t to simplify the inequality
we already set a+b/2=t tho , I just don't get it 😅
Imagine this,u have the function f(x) = x^2
obviously, f(a) = a^2 right? Just a change of variables anyways
then if u want to set t = a/2
f(t) = t^2 anyways
doesnt matter what u set t as
just now u can write f(t) = t^2 = (a/2)^2 = a^2 / 4
@errant elk u got it?

Can you state the conditions in terms of decreasing/increasing and convex/concave
Please don't trust AI for any math-related tasks. They just suck ngl
f'(x)>0 is increasing and less than is decreasing. f''(x)>0 is concave up and less than is concave down
its alr. they can be useful a lot of times but sometimes not so much
Okay, so our f must be increasing and concave down on the intervals
On which intervals is f increasing
Of A B C
Anything else?
A?
No
Increasing means that if you were walking from left to right, youd be walking uphill
C
Yeah
but part of c is also cocave down
F is increasing on both B and C
like at the end
Yep
So f'' < 0 at C
What about B
Is f concave up or down there
Yep
ok
wait
ima check if i got it right
stay here
I DID
thanks for the help @tepid pelican

Np
im back
yo somebody help
basically
mach each graph, with the appropriate form of the function
ie f(x)=I, f'(x)=II, and f''(x)=III
thats the gist of it

Hello I need some help with this
translate plz
I dont think its that needed
A numerical sequence with u0=2 as the first term and u(n+1) =....
Calculate the lim of Sn
what have u tried
limun?
lim of u_n
oh
Yes
(did you try working out some of the S_n's?)
one second im trying something
u can use the options
all the terms are positive
and it starts from 2
so it cant be option 1
or option 4
the 2nd term is very small but still it wont be 2
so by that logic i would say it has to be C
i hope u get a proper explanation tho, this is the best i could do

i suggest u keep this channel open cause this is a horrible way to solve the problem
.reopen
✅
Yeah I guess but this exam doesn't require explanation
I didn't understand why it can't be 2 tho
calculate the second term
its 0.27
Yeah
my thought process was its very unlikely that 2.27 + ... is approximated to 2
the series starts from k=0
Ohh ok
and all the terms after it is positive
still doesnt really explain why it is divergent
yeah
unless there's some horrible way to write out the general term
Why not use series convergence test
@hidden escarp Has your question been resolved?

why are parabolas for conic sections specifically the parameters x=at^2 and y=2at or y^2=4ax?
What😭
yk like for the focus and directrix of a parabola?
y^2 = 4ax is from the defn that parabola is locus of points equidistant from directrix and focus
Derived from distance formula
what's the distance formula?
[ D = \sqrt{(\Delta x)^2 + (\Delta y)^2} ]
k
how does that derive to y^2 = 4ax?
Consider the simplest case
Focus is at (a, 0)
right?
Ye
Simply equate the distance
Since both are in the square root
And are never negative
It suffices to only consider the inside
writting correctly
thanks sherlock
surround your latex with $
thank you
satvik
$D = \sqrt{(x-a)^2 + (y)^2}$
$D = \sqrt{(x-a)^2 + (y)^2}$
satvik
lm
How abt the distance to the directrix?
(x + a)^2
Equate that to the inside of this

a six sided dice is thrown twice. What is the expected value of:
$E(\max(X,Y)|Y=k)=\sum^6_{x=1}x\cdot P(\max(X,Y)=x|Y=k)$?
McMake
I only get a value with k as a result. I know the technical value with the chances of k, but dont know the formal way to get there
could someone help?
break it down into cases when x < k and x >= k

hello. my internet went out. Its the same question:
a six sided dice is thrown twice. What is the expected value of:
$E(\max(X,Y)|Y=k)=\sum^6_{x=1}x\cdot P(\max(X,Y)=x|Y=k)$?
McMake
.
yeah but I get $\frac{k^2-k}{12}+3.5$
McMake
from $\frac{1}{6}\left(k^2+21-\frac{k^2+k}{2}\right)$
McMake
this is my seperation:
$\frac{1}{6}\left(\sum^k_{x=1}k+\sum^6_{x=k+1}x\right)$
McMake
I don't know how to formally get k in there
im basically asking how do I break this down?
$\sum^6_{x=1}x\frac{P[\max(X,Y)=x,Y=k]}{P[Y=k]}$
McMake
I see
