Algebra bashing is the way
tell that to whb
If you dont bash i bash you
He knows
looks like Ptolemy's theorem in disguise but I won't comment further
He already hit me
Isn’t that like your job as a helpful tho..? 
fair enough
helpers are volunteers
Nah, helpfuls are not paid unfortunately
do you need me to censor the j word?
modulators
Ding dong bro @minor bronze at least tell me you did it via bashing
i need a helpless role
no bro
Then bye
how to find DF?
Turn to the dark side
how to find ED?
oh no trig bash
石榴煎酒
help
im helpless
@bitter folio @bitter folio
nvm then tmr ill just see ur soln
lol
I didnt even write it out
I did it in my head
Like 10 min solve
No help now
🙁
Later i help you too much then whb think you better than me when you show him your sols
Uzu rip
@mathcord
Good

it’s gonna hallucinate and fail your assignment
you’re far from being saved my guy
oh no
I do some nt
@minor bronze whb will go through tmr rite
duh
unless he deems it too easy
wait
it just seems like you dont want to start
i do know cosine rule
i do not like endorse bashing
how do you cosine rule this
just write the first step
BD^2 = a^2 + b^2- 2abcos theta?
gimme a while to think
OOOHH
OHHHH DAMNNN

if x > 0 why does (-x)^(2/3) always return an imaginary term
?
When ull have a discussion ping me I'll have my all to know it
??
you mean (-x)^3/2 ?
Wait should it, I can't see why?
Yeah exactly, that would
like, isnt it smth like:
((-x)^2)^(1/3) --> (+)^(1/3) ---> +
((-x)^(1/3))^2 --> (-)^2 ---> +
Now that's ohk
Yeah this shouldn't be imaginary I suppose in the first place
like wont it just always return a positive number no matter what thing u do first ( whether u do 1/3 first or 2)
It is a square root
In which it shouldnt be -ve
ye i did ask wolfam alpha but it returns with i
the thing about testing this way is that , only one example is required to prove otherwise???, so not that helpfull
It is not imaginary
I mean logically if we solve it, it's just cube root of 81, why should that be imaginary, is wolfram glitching or something
no it is
Like -x has cube roots and we ll square it and get real no.
Or square of the cube root of -9, it's just gonna be a positive real number
No it's Ohk
It's right
Also 81 doesn't have cube roots
this makes sense 👍🏼
Rational ones
we have $x=(-8)^\frac23$, and it does have 3 roots
Περσυ
2 of which are complex
Ahhhhh, like the roots of unity
..idk what that has to do with that
ummm so basically there IS a real root and complex root right?
yes
a real root and a ~pair~ of complex roots
yes
oh alr
ok im def dumb lol
we shall ignore that
im wondering why my calculator returns imaginary number and when checked with wolfam it does the same thing
btw unrelated but
? equation has degree 3 , so it will have 3 roots ,1 real , and pair ofimg roots
oh slip up thats fine
im having an internet issue , messages looks like they are sending in late mb
if we have $(x^2)^(1/2)$ do we do x^2 first then ^ (1/2) or we do x^(1/2) first then ^ 2
Yep it might have complex roots too
Compile Error! Click the
reaction for more information.
(You may edit your message to recompile.)
same thing doesnt matter
(x^a)^b = (x^b)^a
neither works.
question mark
$\sqrt{x^2}$ is $|x|$, actually
Περσυ
if x is negative and we do ^ 2 first we will get a positive interger but if we do 1/2 first then we will get negative integer no?
yeah but he isnt solving for it he asked as an expression
ohhh alr
oh yeah that is explaned by the thing the greek letter name guy pointed out
'do first' sounds like solving
hm ok

How do I find the area of the shaded region without counting in the non shaded region??
The answer I got for the whole area of the sector of circle is 523.8cm² well, I'm not sure if that's correct tho
Show your work, and if possible, explain where you are stuck.
Alright, so basically, you know how to find area of circle through ratio of angle?
Yes
Do you mean a sector or the whole circle
wait ain't they the same thing
Uh
Area of a sector
Yeahh I know the formula
But I just don't know how to find the area of the white part because I'm thinking you have to minus it to get the area of the shaded region??
Alright, so area of entire sector minus area of smaller sector
Okay, think of the smaller sector of radius 12 cm
The angle is same, and you know the radius, so you can find the area
Basically what you're doing is, finding area of the entire sector of radius 30 cm, and then removing the part with radius 12 cm, the area of what's left is the shaded region
The angle is same in both cases so that shouldn't be an issue
Wait so does the red part that I coloured here not affect the area of the white part??
Cos before I coloured it red it was shaded
that's just there to indicate the 150° angle
I mean they've given no information regarding this, I believe it's just a printing error
Oh I see 😭😭😭
Ahhhh yes or that, that makes more sense

what would i do for b?
i think i did a correctly
Planes have a normal vector, right?
Hiii
have you tried finding all points where the planes intersect?
n2=<2,-1,3>
The normal vector is perpendicular to all vectors in the plane, right?
yes
what do i do for that
And that applies to both planes, right?
yeah
Okay so we want a vector that is perpendicular to both normal vectors
Any ideas how to do that?
Yup
That's the direction vector of the line of intersection
Then we just need any point on the line
sorry I think this is different from what's currently happening, but if you assume a point $(x,y,z)$ lies in both planes, then the point simultaneously satisfies the two equations, [\left{\begin{array}{rcl}x+y-z&=&2\2x-y+3z&=&1\end{array}\right}]
Flip
okay i got 2i-5j-3k
Then you just need any point that lies on the line
so for this id find x, for example, and then solve for the other variables?
how do i know
try greenie's approach first, I don't think this one is the same
Okay so unless the line is parallel to the x-axis, it will pass through all possible x values
Happy with that?
No
Are you happy with this notion?
i suppose
In that case, our line is guaranteed to pass through a point where x = 0
So we can set x = 0
okay
which 2 equations?
yes
So any point on the line satisfies both planes
yes
So the 2 equations are the equations of your planes
We know from the direction vector of the line that it is not parallel to the x-axis
the x+y-z=2 and 2x-y+3z=1?
Yes
okay
Does it make sense why I'm doing this?
yes, to find y and z?
i think so yes
There is a full line of intersection points
3/2
An infinite number of options
We only need to know one of those points
And we know one of those has x = 0
right
Also, since the line is not parallel to the y or z axis, we could also set y = 0 or z = 0
(not all at the same time)
I just chose x = 0 to make our life easier, and x because it's the first variable
But you can choose any variable and any value if you want to
how would we know if it is parallel to the axis
if the component is =0 from the cross product?
The direction vector
Okay sorry
I've been saying parallel for a while
I meant perpendicular
Let's just go over that one more time to fix the issue
yes
So it takes all possible x-values
A line that is perpendicular to the x-axis only has 1 x-value
So as long as the line is not perpendicular to the x-axis, it takes all possible x-values
yea
If the direction vector of the line has a value of 0 for one of the components, that means the line doesn't change in that direction
Which means it's perpendicular to that axis
So [0, 2, 3] is perpendicular to the x-axis
math
[2, 0, 3] is perpendicular to the y-axis
i thought that if the cross product is 0 then it's parallel
okay
The dot product one is relevant I suppose
So if the dot product is 0, then they're perpendicular, right?
so if n has a component =0, then it's parallel to its respective axis
yeah
n?
The normal vector of a plane and the direction vector of a line are different things
yes
okay i see
The direction vector of a line points along the line
Does that make sense?
Is that okay now?
n is the normal vector in the top picture. There is no v in the top picture
That was the vector equation of a line
Lines don't have normal vectors
Planes have normal vectors
Lines have direction vectors
okay i understand
Do you still need me to answer this?
no
Are you sure?
yes
Okay so now we have a point on the line
Do you know how to find the vector equation of the line now?
@umbral epoch
sorry yes
What equation did you get?
Looks good 👍
If it wanted the vector equation of the line, it would be:
r = [0, 7/2, 3/2] + t [2, -5, -3]
And it should be fairly obvious how to switch between the vector equation and the parametric equation
Which you've done already
Closed by @umbral epoch
Use .reopen if this was a mistake.
Do all the steps make sense? @umbral epoch
yeah
Any questions about anything?

Hi, I just want to check if i did it right
f: A -> B, A = {1,2,...,m}, B={1,2,...,n}
I need to find how many functions f are monotonous increasing
I asked for help earlier with a similar problem and I got adviced to try to change it to something I understand, so I made this:
Being B = {amount of adopted dogs}
and A = {days}
Then we have n dogs and m days.
The day m, n dogs get adopted
The day m-1, n-1 dogs get adopted
and so on until day 0 where 0 dogs get adopted
so the answer would be n! * m!
I asked this to someone on this server but i had to leave for a few minutes so i ask it again. He told me this wasn't alright but i had to leave before he could explain further. I would appreaciate if someone could explain it to me. Thank you

isn't this wrong, because it is not mentioned that we are not allowed to overlap the parabolas
do you think you can manage it with overlaps allowed
feels like we can do it
try it
you now know why it doesn't work
um I don't
??
seems related to the convex nature of parabola maybe
instead of looking at what can be covered, you find what cannot be covered
then there you go
so is there at least one way to show that there are parts not covered?
lemme try
is ur proof geometric
what if you like, let r be the radius of a circle containing all the vertices of the parabolas
and then bound the intersection of a parabola with a circle of radius R
I didn't really get that sorry can you explain a bit more
there are many approaches to this ahaha
ahh then you can argue that circle covers more area
by isoperimetric theorem
but there still remains uncovered areas
wait I just got an idea when two parabolas intersect, we gotta draw one more parabola with its axis as the common chord to cover the left over area, so we would constantly have an increasing number of intersection hence infinite parabolas
is this right?
ok I don't know what that is
i believe the issue falls under packing, there are multiple papers on it
theorem says the largest area with the smallest perimeter
maybe I should mention that this is a question from a college entrance exam so I think we are supposed to high school knowledge
but we're concerned with largest area here
oh okay good mention, then you're gonna use circles
what am I supposed to do from this?
maybe think about what does the area of the intersection grow like with r
or u could try an algebraic approach
this picture alone isn't a proof
need to bound the black arc based on the radii of the two circles
what do the purple and black circle represent here
the purple circle is any circle containing the vertices of every parabola
and the black circle is any circle containing the poi's of all parabolas?
the black circle is a circle which you can enlarge until it's too big for the parabolas to completely cover its circumference
ah so the parabolas can just barely cover the black circle?
but how does that prove that we require infinite parabolas?
it's a proof by contradiction, i suppose
the parabolas supposedly cover R^2 but there's a big enough black circle, where the parabolas can't cover its circumference
well, no, maybe it is a direct proof
for any finite collection of parabolas, we construct the black circle and demonstrate there are points on its circumference which are not covered, thus the parabolas do not cover R^2
yea so we just have to show that we can make such a circle
yeah
ok lemme try
hint:
|| make an inequality ||
|| if A is the black arc, you need A < f(R,r) ||
ok since the parabolas are finite, there are finitely many poi's, and if we make a circle that contains all those poi's then we would have some parts of the circle not contained in the parabolas
is this right?
it sounds like you're taking a different approach
since the parabolas are finite, there are finitely many poi's
this is not correct
wait
are you just talking about their points of intersection?
yes
yeah there should be finitely many points of intersection
not sure where to go from there, though
the next step you took seems hand-wavey
maybe there's a way to justify it
ok I can't really go ahead from my approach I'll see your hint
intuitively yes but idk how to prove it
are you going for a contradiction here?
wait but then aren't we supposed to show A > f(R,r) cuz the black circle is outside the region of the parabola
i want to find an upper bound for the length of the solid black arc
I'm sorry I haven't really done these types of problems so I can't understand properly
i'm struggling to find the bound, so i can't go further at this point
wait you don't have the proof?
no
oh alright
ig I'll try a bit more on my approach
I'll have to go to sleep in a bit so what do I do just keep the channel occupied?
is there any limit on how long you can occupy a channel
in order to keep it open you have to hit a reaction when you get pinged
so if you go to sleep you'll lose the channel
BTW i found A < 2R^(1/4)
oh does that prove the thing?
no, but it's a step forward
we are supposed to get A<R right?
no
bruh then what
we need A * number of parabolas < 2pi*R
A was the black arc right?
yeah
and R was the radius of what?
the black circle
ohh okay I think I'm getting it kinda
oookay I finally got what you're trying to prove here
nice
but it's not necessarily true right? cuz some portion of the black circle can overlap within so just multiplying it with the number of parabolas may result in the product being more than 2piR
it can overlap with what?
I mean the same portion of the black circle can be in the interior of two parabolas, so you're counting that length twice
I mean if you prove the inequality then yes the proof is done but what if the inequality is impossible then we won't get anything from it
not impossible but maybe in some case it is not possible
it's like this
one arc is less than 2R^(1/4)
if the arcs don't overlap at all, then the sum of their lengths is less than 2R^(1/4) * N
if the arcs do overlap, then the covered portion of the circumference is yet smaller, and so it's still less than 2R^(1/4) * N
yea but what I'm saying is that it might be possible that 2R^(1/4) * N > 2piR, in that case you wouldn't get the desired inequality
i think we can make R big enough to avoid this
all right
if you get anything you can dm me maybe
I'll wake up in like 6 hours and then occupy a new channel so if you're available we can continue over there as well
all right
so should I juse close this one or wait for the bot to do it
I'll close it ig

Ann
certainly you cannot conclude a=2 or b=2 or any combination of these
same way you cannot solve the equation t^2 + t - 2 = 0 by writing it as t(t+1)=2. it's just kinda useless
also I’d put parentheses around sin. Makes this less ambigious
and also that.
well you can actually deduce sin(x) = 1 is a solution by inspection from that
but that doesn't tell you about other potential solutions
ok so let's forget about your math grade
do you know how to solve quadratic equations or perhaps you know them as second-degree equations?
It was to indicate that i am not good at it
I think so
ok
Give me an example
(it doesnt have anything to do with your question directly, just trying to figure out what you know)
I forgot
I used to make 2 parentheses
cool ok then thats something you have to review.

I need help with coordinate maths- ive answered a which is gradient of minus 2 but i cant seem to do b i dont understand it please can anyone explain please
<@&286206848099549185>
Please only use the <@&286206848099549185> ping once if your question has not been answered for 15 minutes. Please do not ping or DM individual users about your question.
Note that a point lies on a line if and only if its coordinates satisfy the equation
ex. let's say we have y = x + 1
(1,2) lies on it because x=1 and y=2 makes y=x+1 true
but (1,3) does not because x=1 and y=3 does not make y=x+1 true
does that make sense
also ignore this
Im not sure i understand im so sorry
What part don't you understand?
Sorry ive just re read it and i understand what your saying
Yes i get that because 1 + 1 =2
But how do you find out the answer to question b??? Ive looked in videos that say its a formula but im not sure i understand the logistics of it
I have done this before but i only remember finding the mid point at some point
the slope between any two points on the same line will be the same
So the gradient???
yeh, same thing
How would i find that out??
Oh so i just need to find out the gradient again?
yes
oh yeah you can do that too

Help! 🥲
I’m lost-ish
if the function were 5sin(3x)/(3x), would you be able to do it?
Think of how you can transform 4x into 3x without changing the function expression
$$\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{5\sin(3x)}{4x}$$
gfauxpas
limits have the property that you can factor in and out constant multiples
think of a clever way to multiply by 1 and then factor in and out numerator and denominators until you get what you want
Right
And what wud we do here then?
I tried 😭 and it doesn’t make sense 🥲
you want to multiply by (number)/(number)
and then factor the numerator and denominator seperately
Get 12x on both numerator and denom?
U mean by 3/4?
try it
I dont want to tell you the answer, you'll learn better by experimenting and trying wrong answers until you find the right one
😭😭 I ain’t have time for all that ngl. Maybe on the weekends but I have a whole unit test tmrw 🙏
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).
heck no
Hehe, it’s coming back to me 😅😅
im using this
<@&268886789983436800> troll
heck no
nah I would just do
Oh
$$\frac 5 4 \lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(3x)}{x}$$
gfauxpas
is this allowed?
okay you have to do SOME work here though sorry, i did the first step and it's a big one
I know 😭😭
I'm guessing that the message got deleted? Was it Cee?
I was hoping u cud explain it?
so now you just have to evaluate this limit of
$$\lim_{x \to 0} \frac{\sin(3x)}{x}$$
gfauxpas
my hint to you is to multiply by 1 = (number)/(number)
Thanks for deleting your messages here. Please make sure you don't do this kind of thing in the future.
I can do this.
But you’re telling me it’s ok to just take out the 5/4?
there's a theorem
suppose lim_{x to c}f(x) exists and is equal to L
let a be some number
then lim_{x to c}af(x) exists and is equal to aL
in other words, multiplying the function by a constant multiplies the limit by that constant
so you can find the limit first and then multiply after
Ok ok, I think i get it. It’ll prolly stick after some days but thanx
if the limit doesnt exist, then multiplying it by a nonzero number won't make it exist
np
so you can even test if a limit exists by factoring
in other words, if youre not sure if the limit of 5g(x) exists at x=c, you can take the limit of g(x), and if that limit doesnt exist, 5g(x) wont have a limit either
if it DOES have a limit, then the limit of g(x) at c will be 1/5 the limit of 5g(x)

i’m stuck on this section, i’m not sure how i’m supposed to get the answer and what formula (if there is a formula) to use
deltamath ptsd 😭 ok anyways, dyk what the IVT states?
not a single clue
like it doesn’t disconnect it keeps going
That's the simple explanation
trying to keep it simple for my brain
i believe it is enough for ivt though
It is enough
Intermediate value theorem basically says given a continuous function's 2 endpoints, the function must pass through the values in between them
Imagine you are at home and you wanna go to the bus station at some place on the map
wait let me get my notebook out
You can have multiple paths to go there, but you must pass through at least the portion in between your house and the bus station
the least portion?
The portion sandwiched between the 2 endpoints
So if you're given 2 function's endpoints, say (0,10) and (5,3), you can predict that it must pass through values of x from 0 to 5 and values of y from 3 to 10, provided that it's a continuous function
i don’t understand
would this be right
i’m gunna sen it
I WAS RIGHT
YOOOO
thanks team i learned so much and nothing at the same time

On number 3, I don’t know how you could tell
the graph is the derivative of the derivative of g
so throughout the domain from 0 to 3 the rate of change is decreasing
Yes
if the rate of change is decreasing from 0 the function itself can only be decreasing
so thats your answer
So because from 0 to 3 on the second derivative is negative, it means the first derivative has a negative rate of change which means the graph of g is also negative?
since g'(0) =0
and g''(0)<0, at g(0), a local maxima occurs,
so on the right and left side of x=0, function will be decreasing
Why does g’’ being negative indicate a local minima
Guys
sorry, meant to say local maxima, rest is correct
this is the 2nd derivative test
I dunno how to solve
Wouldn’t you need to know 2 is a critical point to use second derivative test
we are using 2nd derivative test at 0, as it is the only info given
Ah, then since it’s negative it means there’s a maximum
yes
This stuff is rly hard to visualize
Yo how do you integrate with trig functions with exponents

We know the chance of a positive test given a patient has the flu/does not
but how do I flip that?
so, we know the chance of having the flu given a positive test
then I just compound that with the initial 20%
its just that flipping part that has me confused
have you covered bayes theorem
no
Can you remind me what | and ∩ mean? I think thats or and intersection but idk
| denotes conditional probability
P(A) if B happens
oops didnt mean to auote
got it
to understand the theorem
multiply both sides by P(B), imo its more intuitive that way
i don't think conditional probability is actually usable here? I think you need bayes
You can derive bayes from conditional probability but that's hard to do independently
I would use a tree
what is bayes/how do you use a tree?
Bayes' theorem is a theorem to (basically) find P(A|B) if you know P(B|A) and some extra info. You'll learn it at some point.
To use a tree, start by making two branches: patient has bird flu/patient doesnt have bird flu
Then for each branch, make a sub branch: patient tests positive/patient tests negative
$P(A|B)P(B)=P(B|A)P(A)$
BBMaths
afterwards, you can find the portion of "patient has the flu" is in "patient tests positive". might be hard to understand through text so you can send a photo of your labelled tree (with probabilities)
sure 1sec
\cap
I knew cap from doing latex in Microsoft word but I didn’t know if that was standard or if I could just write intersect
BBMaths
I’ve made a mess of this lol
Try to use the Bayes theorem equation, you’ll need to pick what A and B mean (Positive test result, has the flu)
You drew a tree at the start and right now, ^.4% not 4% but unimportant
lol ik i meant in the context of bayes how do i draw a tree
okay, so 19.6 people with the flu test positive, and 32 people without the flu tested positive. Of the 32+19.6 people who tested positive, what percentage actually has the flu?
The formalization of this is Bayes' Theorem. Look it up if you want so you won't need to make a tree every single time
Yep
P(Flu | Positive) = P(Positive | Flu) * P(Flu) / P(Positive). Which is what you did by hand.
btw which class will i learn this in?
because i see it is not apart of AP Stats so
Probability, isn't that what you;re doing now?
will it be in a college class?
oh
AP Stats might have it in the Probability chapter... not sure
It's a pretty simple theorem, you might do it in hs if you ever take a "Prob & Stats" type class. Otherwise intro Probability in college yeah

Would my answer here be sufficient proof for question 9?
The working is fine but nothing abt the interval was mentioned in ur work
Oh for part b or?
Or do i have to mention for part a as well
Part a
Part b Has a different interval
Yes
Oh qould i do that to eliminate the negstive root?
Negative root?
The 1-x^2
Under the swuare root it can be positive or negstive
If i soecify interval of pi/2 to 0 it will only be pisitive?
Mention that when 0<_x<_1
The angle is [0,90]
It cant be negative(if we dont take complex number into consideration)
Yeah i havent taken imaginary numbers yet
Okok ty
Within that range sinx is always positive or 0
Cuz sin0=0 and sin90=1
From pi/2 to 0 same thing yes
And the value of sqrt(something) is always positive or 0
So u can say that this interval is satisfied
Yea

so I had asked this question yesterday night but couldn't get any answer, I was trying to prove it by showing that the parabolas cannot cover the entire circumference of a big enough circle
Uh this can be done using affine maps, but since you have the pre-uni flair I doubt that's gonna be helpful
it was asked in a college entrance exam
My best idea was that you can show that not matter what kind of parabola, supposing their interior intersects at their apexes, eventually their border will cross, creating space which is not covered by any of the two
I don't see a way to rigorously prove this without using the fact that all parabolas are affine maps of y = x²
Yes intuitively this works
yea I was going for that too but couldn't prove it
it is essentially what I was trying to do with circles
Essentially the idea becomes that
As you go farther and farther in the parabola
Your angle gets smaller and smaller
You prove this for y = x²
And then you show that the proof transfers over affine transformations
you mean the angle between the slope and axis?
Yes
I don't know that
Yes I know
Which is why I'm confused as to how you'd do this
You could prove it directly for the general form of a parabola ig
But that sounds like hell
yea
yesterday someone was trying to do something from this (you can read the convo and maybe get something from it)
This is on the lines of what you already said, but, for y = x^2, suppose you draw a cone from x = 0, to both x = \pm a
as a -> inf does the angle -> 0?
It does yes
If you take the asymptotic behaviour you can think that the parabolas basically cover no space if considering the whole plane
That's a.. not difficult proof
I think that should be valid
That is measure theory territory though
But yes it is reasonable to claim that
But the problem is, now you need to show this for an arbitrary parabola
Any transformation that has ax^2, a =/= 0 will still have to follow that idea in the end
Intuitively yes
um can you explain what you're trying to prove here?
ill try to graph it out in desmos to showcase the idea
Actually Let’s think of this differently
A parabola subtends an arbitrarily small angle
ig yea you can say it if we compare it with pair of straight lines
That doesn't exactly work since it's "fatter" at the bottom
But yes that's the idea
The Line x = m intersects the parábolas in a finite number of points
Since the line is infinite
Oh holy shit
There are infinite points within the line that are not covered
That is genius
um but how does that prove the question?
I just proved that there are points in the plane that are not in the parábolas
It may not lie inside 1 parabola but some part of it may lie inside other parabolas
Not boundaries
yea
So this doesn't work
You can say the intersection has finite measure in L_1
But that feels way too overboard for a college entrance exam
I'm listening
A parábola crosses a random line in at most 2 points
So take any line of the plane
It will have at most 2n intersections with all the parábolas
Since the line has infinite points
There is an infinity of points that are in the line and not in the intersection
if we take two parabolas that touch each other at the vertex and the line as their axis then the number of poi's is finite but the line still lies within the parabolas
So they are in the plane and not in the intersection
What ??
If they touch each other at the vertex, the intersection is 1 point
A parabola rotated 90° is still a parabola no?
um I think just showing that the number of point of intersections being finite doesn't mean the line will not lie inside the parabolas entirely
That’s Why I said at most 2 points
Yeah, you can easily prove by exhaustion that an infinite line is either:
- Crosses the parabola once, half of it is inside the parabola, the other out.
- It crosses it two times.
- It doesnt cross it at all
The big problem would be 1. But that only happens when the axis of the parabola is parallel to the line itself
So, to cover for all "slopes" of a line, you would have to exhaust all angles, and that requires infinite parabolas.
That feels like an immediate counterexample to this cuz the interval is to infinity on one side
A line can never lie in a parábola
but it can lie inside multiple parabolas
Consider x = y² and x = -y², the line x = 0 lies entirely in these two
yes, but you can rotate your line
Yes again, the number of parábolas is finite
So no
Ok let’s pose for a second please
Take any line and any parábola
Orient them however you want
Rótate them squeeze them
The number of intersections Is at most 2 points
So if you take one Line, and a finite number of parabolas (say n)
The parábolas cover at most 2n points of the line
So an infinite number of points in the line are not covered by the parábolas
ok this seems like the proof shaki is going for
A line and a parabola's interior can have an intersection of the form [n, ∞] no
but yea I can see why it works
I missed the case where the line is tangent, but thats pretty trivial to prove that it has points outside of it
that is just the special case of 2 only
Theres another:
limiting case actually
Proving 1 is the problem here lol
Not really, it can never not be inside of the parabola:
yea but even if you show that 1 line doesn't lie inside all the parabolas we are done we don't have to show for all lines
Suppose you have two opposite looking parabolas, just rotate your line by some angle
and then its outside of both
And since for every other case, it cant be fully contained inside of the parabola, you would need infinite rotated parabolas
oh, btw, on the original idea i had about the cone just cause i have the mp4:
When you go further up the parabola, the angle it fully covers gets smaller and smaller
yea that can work as well ig
its a bit more convoluted, the geometric reasoning is 100% better

can anyone tell me where to start on this problem
i tried to express the equation as 2x/((2x^2 - 2x + 3) - 3x) + 13x/((2x^2 - 2x + 3) + 3x) = 6, but idk what to do
@peak heath Has your question been resolved?
you can always bash it out
multiply both sides by the product of the denominators
Did u try what cis(x) suggested?
If we dont take complex number into consideration then yes it isnt factorable
But inspite of not being able to factorize it u can multiply both lhs and rhs by the product of denominators
And expand
but i got 8x^4 - 26x^3 + 35x^2 - 39x + 18 = 0, and what can i do with this
