Are you done with this?

bold orbit
#

Oh yeah sure

inner nest
bold orbit
#

I can't vc rn

inner nest
#

Ok

#

Now here is a critical detail

#

As the question mentions that it touches the t' axis

#

or x axis in common sense

#

so it has a concavity at that point

#

which mean?

#

you know....

#

the derivative of that point is zero

#

@bold orbit

bold orbit
#

Okay yeah

inner nest
bold orbit
#

But that still leaves the whole constant problem

inner nest
#

Nope

#

Now, we have a system of equation that we can solve!

#

@bold orbit

bold orbit
#

What

inner nest
#

yep

bold orbit
#

What are the equations in the system?

inner nest
bold orbit
#

...

#

I feel extremely stupid

#

It is that easy

inner nest
#

😑

inner nest
bold orbit
#

Lemme just verify this gives the same answer

inner nest
#

bruh

bold orbit
#

Yep it does

#

Thanks so much!

halcyon dagger
#

i get that both numbers will be even so the gcd cant be 1, and its highly unlikely that A is the answer, but idk where to go after that

vast obsidian
#

Is the LHS also divisable by 3?

bold orbit
#

Yes

halcyon dagger
#

well yk what maybe, cause it seems that for any even power of two plus and odd power of two it results in a value divisible by 3

#

but then 6 or 12 is the question

#

how do i determine that

bold orbit
#

It's 12

halcyon dagger
#

why

bold orbit
#

From the first part

nova creek
bold orbit
#

Imma explain ofc

nova creek
#

Doesn't matter

vast obsidian
bold orbit
#

From the first part 2^2021 + 2^2022 = 2^2021(1+2)=3*2^2021

#

Do the same for the rhs

#

And see which are the common factors

halcyon dagger
#

3^2021 + 3^2022 = 3^2021(1+2) = 3*3^2021??

#

i still dont get it

#

how do i determine the common factors after that

bold orbit
#

3^2021+3^2022=3^2021(1+3)

#

Not 1+2

halcyon dagger
#

oh yeah mb

bold orbit
#

So it's 4*3^2021

#

And the other one was 3*2^2021

#

So you have two 2s and a 3 as the common factors

#

2*2*3=12

halcyon dagger
#

got it ty

formal quarry
#

How would I solve part D for this? I don’t know where to start

lean otter
#

well do you know some very basic polynomials which have a 0 integral?

formal quarry
#

x?

lean otter
#

yes

#

some way to make x² zero?

formal quarry
#

thats only at 0 right

#

x raised to an odd power would have an integral of 0 from -1 to 1?

lean otter
#

yeah x³ is possible too, but think of how you could add a constant to x² to make it 0

formal quarry
#

x^2-1?

lean otter
#

that gives a -1.333 integral

#

you could solve
0 = integral x²+c from -1 to 1
for c

unique bison
#

Or set the integral of a generic cubic from -1 to 1, to zero

formal quarry
#

Ok so how do i use that to find the basis?

lean otter
#

you have
x
x²-1/3

and all those polynomials have a zero integral, now what happens if you add them together or multiply by a scalar, is the integral still 0?

lean otter
#

,w integral x²-1/3 from -1 to 1

formal quarry
#

how do i define that as a basis

lean otter
#

(x, x²-1/3, x³)

#

well you still have to prove that there are no more polynomials that are linearly independent from these

#

or do you need to prove things?

orchid sparrow
#

I want to find two boolean functions such that f(x)*g(y) = 1 iff x and y = 0 and otherwise f(x)*g(y) = -1
And also that f(x)*g(y) = g(y)*f(x)

orchid sparrow
#

Does this exist?

#

x and y can only take on 1 or 0

lean otter
#

why f(x)*g(y) = g(y)*f(x)?

orchid sparrow
#

Because I want them to

lean otter
#

isnt that trivially true?

orchid sparrow
#

Oh

#

I didn't explicitly say that they give off complex numbers

#

So I had to say that

#

But assume they do

lean otter
#

so you want
f(0) g(0) = 1
f(0) g(1) = -1
f(1) g(0) = -1
f(1) g(1) = -1
right? in that case you can derive a contradiction

orchid sparrow
#

I was hoping this was possible

#

Oof

lean otter
#

f(0) (g(0) + g(1)) = 0
f(1) (g(0) + g(1)) = -2
=> f(0) = 0
but
f(0) g(0) ≠0

orchid sparrow
#

Yeah rip

#

Thanks though

#

I would have to think of something different to solve what I was hoping this was true for

#

🥺

swift fjord
lean otter
#

adding the equations together, hoping to do something with the 0

safe radishBOT
#

@orchid sparrow Has your question been resolved?

orchid sparrow
#

@lean otter

#

How about this:

#

Is it possible to do

#

f(x)*g(x) =

#

1 if x isn't y
-1 if x=y=0
i if x=y=1

#

If so then I can still solve my problem

lean otter
#

so
f(0)*g(1)=1
f(1)*g(0)=1
f(0)*g(0)=-1
f(1)*g(1)=i

orchid sparrow
#

Omg if you disprove this I swear to god

lean otter
#

let me see ..

#

well ..

orchid sparrow
#

Probably possible ngl

#

I can't find them though 😔

lean otter
#

g(0) (f(0)+f(1)) = 0 right?

#

but g(0) cant be 0, so f(0) = -f(1)

#

but that implies -f(1) g(1) = 1

orchid sparrow
#

so
f(0)*g(1)=1
f(1)*g(0)=-1
f(0)*g(0)=-1
f(1)*g(1)=i

#

What if this is the case

#

this one is my last attempt at success in this thing

#

Then I'll simply give up on that idea

#

You may be thinking wtf am I trying to accomplish

#

But trust me

#

I need it for things

#

Ohhhh I think i got it

#

Ok ok so so like

orchid sparrow
#

@lean otter
I think I can't give a counter example

#

I think it's just a matter of figuring what they are

lean otter
orchid sparrow
#

No solution!?

Can someone please explain to me the theory behind this code?

gray plaza
#

def gram_schmidt(X):
    O = np.zeros(X.shape)    for i in range(X.shape[1]):
        # orthogonalization
        vector = X[:, i]
        space = O[:, :i]
        projection = vector @ space
        vector = vector - np.sum(projection * space, axis=1)        # normalization
        norm = np.sqrt(vector @ vector)
        vector /= abs(norm) < 1e-8 and 1 or norm
        
        O[:, i] = vector    return O
chrome summit
#

If you have a list of linearly independent vectors, they may not be orthonormal. E.g. consider (2,0) and (1,1). They are neither normal nor orthogonal, but they are a basis.

#

Gram schmidt makes them orthonormal by basically going one vector at a time and fixing the problems

#

so (2,0) isn't normal, but it is when you scale it by 1/2, so do that

#

Then make (1,1) orthogonal by projecting it onto the line spanned by (2,0) and then subtracting that projection from (1,1). Basically, remove the part of (1,1) that goes in the same direction as (2,0)

gray plaza
#

This is very helful.

#

But isn't the 1,1 orthogonal?

chrome summit
#

orthogonal to what? It's not orthogonal to (2,0). The angle between them is 45 degrees

gray plaza
#

Ahh! Yes

#

Sorry

#

So, in these first two lines it will take the columns of X and A.

#

Then it will mutiply them. Right? 😀

chrome summit
#

well it makes no sense to multiply vectors

#

there is no multiplication

#

you can take a dot product, which I imagine is what the code is doing (because that's what Gram schmidt is)

#

(u dot v) v is the same thing as projecting u onto the line spanned by v

gray plaza
#

I see.

#

Thank you, @chrome summit 🙂

#

You are the best.

lean otter

This is about factoring the differences of perfect cubes, using the two cubes identity formula. I don't understand why on the left, he simplified b^2 (3^2) to 9, but on the right, he did not simplify b^2 (5^2) to 25 ?

halcyon carbon
#

It doesn’t matter; he just wants to show the formula

worthy hemlock
#

You can write it both ways

#

Showing it as 5^2 was a method to help you see what B is easier

lean otter
#

Is the correct way to always simplify it down, so 3^2 to 9, and 5^2 to 25, or it doens't matter and I am okay with either?

worthy hemlock
#

Doesn't matter

Ah okay, thank you

balmy folio
#

hi

safe radishBOT
balmy folio
#

this is partt of a homework question, but essentially it's a minimization problem and im not sure what im supposed to simplify the expression to

#

and i guess while im here im not sure how this is wrong

sudden birch
#

When u make a cube root x into x^(1/3), you remove the root symbol. You forgot to do that in your first wrong answer

balmy folio
#

right lol

#

im rushing this

sudden birch
#

How do you even find the length of the window? Idk

balmy folio
#

it's a calculus problem using minimization

#

but i must have messed it up

balmy folio
#

so im still not sure for that one

sudden birch
# balmy folio the width, x?

A rectangle has a width and length. The window rectangle has width x. But then what’s length? Also gotta go and sleep so good night sleep tight don’t let the bed bugs bite

#

Question: where did the (cos^2(A) + Sin^2(A)) go? I just want to know why it got replaced...

obtuse plover
#

It’s a trig identity

#

cos^2 (a) + sin^2 (a) = 1

glossy cypress
#

great i havent learned that yet

#

is there a simple way you could explain it?

#

like maybe an example

obtuse plover
#

There isn’t a rlly simpler way of explaining it

glossy cypress
#

fair

#

i did kind of want to go into this while understanding the proof but i guess identities are for another time

obtuse plover
#

Eh they’re not too bad, im sure u can catch it on quickly

glossy cypress
#

I have no clue why the lesson's already using identities before Im even told how they work but
thats alr ig

wary wave
#

if im integrating acelleration

safe radishBOT
wary wave
#

which is 10e^-0.2t

#

and acceleration at the start is 10

#

then to get speed

#

its 10 + the integral of acceleration

#

between 0 and t

#

is

#

10 - 50(e(^0.02t)+1)

#

right?

nova creek
#

No

wary wave
#

wait yea i see

nova creek
#

The constant after integrating acceleration isn't the initial acceleration

#

Also idk how you calculated that integral

wary wave
#

its 10 + 50(1 - e^(-0.2t))

#

is that the right integral?

nova creek
#

How are you getting that

wary wave
#

between 0 and t

nova creek
#

Ah

#

Gimme a sec

#

(The constant still isn't 10 tho)

wary wave
#

why not?

#

oh wait

#

yea i mean if its from rest

#

it would be from 0

#

but in the question it says

nova creek
#

First off, what are you trying to do?

wary wave
#

a vehicle accelerates from 10ms

#

trying to determine the power required that 1300kg vehicle to accelerate from 10ms at an acceleration 10e^.2t takes

#

and P = m * u(acc) * u(speed)

nova creek
#

What's u(acc) and u(speed)?

wary wave
#

for our engr clsas

#

u double dot = acceleration

nova creek
#

Also, 10 m/s is velocity, not acceleration

wary wave
#

u dot = speed

#

u = displacement

wary wave
nova creek
#

So u(acc) = u''(t) and u(speed) = u'(t)?

wary wave
#

and speed = intial plus integral of acceleration between 0 and t

wary wave
nova creek
#

Typically, when you have an acceleration function and you want velocity, you find the indefinite integral. At least, I do

#

Then you can find the constant since you know u'(0) = 10

wary wave
#

yea i just wanted to know how i got the integral wrong

#

when integrating

#

10e^(-0.2t)

#

cause u divide 10/-.2

#

which is 50

#

so u get 50(e^(-0.2t))

#

right

nova creek
#
  • C, yes
wary wave
#

yea but imma do through 0 and t

#

so then

#

when t = 0

#

it goes to 1

#

and when t =t

#

its just the e^(0.2t)

nova creek
#

It's kinda bad practice to use the same variable in the integral and in the bound, but that's just a notational thing

wary wave
#

yea i have a number for t

#

but i was just figuring out where i went wrong

#

for future reference

nova creek
#

Then everything seems right now

#

You do add 10, if 10 is the initial velocity rather than acceleration

#

Which it seems like it is

wary wave
#

it is inition vel

#

how can i simplif

#

(1300)(5e^(-0.2t))(35-25e^(-0.2t)

nova creek
#

How'd you get 35 - 25e^(-0.2t)?

wary wave
#

different question

#

acceleration is now

#

5e^-0.2t

nova creek
#

I see

#

Well then, just distribute

restive palm
#

my answer was 78.75, right?

safe radishBOT
restive palm
#

h = 78.75

split ether
#

It's 80

restive palm
# split ether It's 80

h = -5t^2 + 30t + 35
h = -5(t^2-6t-7)
h=-5(t-7)(t+2)
t= 0.5(7-2), 2.5
h = -5 (2.5)^2 + 30(2.5) + 35
h = 78.75

#

that's what I did

#

what's wrong here

split ether
#

(t - 7)(t + 2) =/= t^2 - 6t - 7

restive palm
#

huh

#

could you clarify this a bit more

split ether
#

The factoring it wrong

restive palm
#

the roots are incorrect I guess?

split ether
#

ax^2 + bx + c expression reaches its extrema when x = -b/2a

#

So in this case -5t^2 + 30t + 35 is maximal at t = 3

#

So just plug in t = 3

restive palm
#

how did you find the 3?

#

I don't know why, it's 2.5 for me

split ether
#

30/2*(-5) = 3

restive palm
#

in my book, it was like 0.5(root1+root2)

#

but I think they're the same mainly, but I didn't take x=-b/2a thing

split ether
#

7 and -2 aren't the roots

#

t^2 - 6t - 7 = (t - 7)(t + 1)

#

It's 7 and -1

uncut cloak
#

This is not making much sense to me

safe radishBOT
halcyon carbon
#

First part?

uncut cloak
#

Yeah

halcyon carbon
#

Do you know the group axioms

uncut cloak
#

I guess

halcyon carbon
uncut cloak
#

These?

halcyon carbon
#

Yes

#

So we need to show 4 things; closure, associativity, identity and inverse

uncut cloak
#

K

#

How

halcyon carbon
#

For closure

#

Firstly reals are closed under addition and multiplication, so we only need to concern ourselves with x≠1 condition

uncut cloak
#

K

halcyon carbon
#

Suppose x*y=-1

#

Then what?

uncut cloak
#

Then it’s not close bruh

halcyon carbon
#

No I meant suppose for contradiction

uncut cloak
#

so x*y=-1 means x is 1 or -1 or y is 1 or -1

#

How does that help

halcyon carbon
#

Where did you even get that

uncut cloak
#

Nvm

#

It’s

#

x+y+xy+1=0

halcyon carbon
uncut cloak
#

What now

halcyon carbon
#

Factorise x+y+xy+1

uncut cloak
#

Idk bruh how

halcyon carbon
#

x(y+1) + y+1

#

(x+1)(y+1)

uncut cloak
#

Oh okay so x=-1 or y=-1

halcyon carbon
#

Yes so x*y = -1 iff x=-1 or y=-1

#

In other words x*y≠1 iff x≠-1, y≠1

#

So our group is close under * because -1 is not in the set

#

Okay?

uncut cloak
#

No

halcyon carbon
#

Why not

uncut cloak
#

Because how do you know -1 in not in the set

halcyon carbon
#

Read the question again

uncut cloak
#

Okay my bad

#

Okay so it’s closed under star

#

Now associativity I’ve done

#

So identify

#

.close

Use .reopen if this was a mistake.

uncut cloak
#

.reopen

safe radishBOT
#

halcyon carbon
#

Okay

#

Idk why you did that but

uncut cloak
halcyon carbon
#

For identity e

#

It is sufficient to show that x*e=x

#

Since x*y is symmetrical

uncut cloak
#

Okay so x+e+xe=x

#

e(1+x)=0

#

Since x can’t be -1 e is 0?

halcyon carbon
#

Indeed

#

So the identity is 0

#

Now we only have to find the inverse

#

Any idea?

uncut cloak
#

so x*x^-1 =0

halcyon carbon
#

Yes

#

Now expand it and see what you get

uncut cloak
#

K

#

So

#

x+x^-1+xx^-1=0

#

x^-1 =(-x)/(1+x)

#

This?

#

That’s correct I think

#

I got -11/18 for the next part

halcyon carbon
#

Yes

#

I think those are correct

uncut cloak
#

K thanks

Help

safe radishBOT
marble yarrow
#

I found DE = 5/2

#

And AE 3/2

#

We can know that BF is also equal to 3/2

#

If we make a CFB a 90 degree angle, would CBF be 30 degrees and BCF 60

#

Is the DC part 13

#

<@&286206848099549185>

deft shadow
#

Ur DE is not correct

marble yarrow
#

Why

deft shadow
#

Try to count again

marble yarrow
#

We have to convert it to standard form

#

Of a 30-60-90

#

5/2)^2 + 3/2)^2 = 3^2

#

9 = 9

deft shadow
#

5/2 is which one

marble yarrow
#

These are the same right

#

of hypotenuse a

deft shadow
#

Yes

marble yarrow
#

AE is a/2

#

So 3/2

#

Using Pythagorean ED 5/2

deft shadow
#

Wait let me count

marble yarrow
#

Ok

deft shadow
#

It should be 2.598...

marble yarrow
#

Wait

#

Another example

#

Of the triangle angles changing

deft shadow
#

$\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}$

flat frigateBOT
marble yarrow
# marble yarrow

This is an example from book, and the way i did it, the book got the same answer

deft shadow
marble yarrow
#

So based on that

deft shadow
#

That is the rules

marble yarrow
#

Yeah

deft shadow
marble yarrow
#

Still

#

My guts say it should be 5/2

#

Idk why

deft shadow
marble yarrow
#

If we try to use it into pythagorean theorem

#

It works

deft shadow
#

$3^2 - {(\frac{3}{2})}^2$

#

Square the whole fraction not 3 only

flat frigateBOT
deft shadow
#

What u get?

marble yarrow
#

25/4

#

So 5/2 when we take the root

deft shadow
#

Bro

#

I get 6.75 before square root

#

Or 27/4

#

U sure u didnt do wrong?

marble yarrow
#

I might have

#

Ye

marble yarrow
deft shadow
#

3/2

marble yarrow
#

ED is 2.59

#

Right

deft shadow
#

U made a triangle BCF right?

marble yarrow
#

Yes

#

On the other side

#

BF is same as AR

#

AE

#

3/2

deft shadow
#

So FC is?

marble yarrow
#

And is CF also 2.6

deft shadow
#

No

#

$CF \not= DE$

flat frigateBOT
marble yarrow
#

Its 3

deft shadow
#

Not

deft shadow
marble yarrow
#

Ye so 3/2 is a times root 3

deft shadow
#

Divide

#

Not times

marble yarrow
#

a, 2a , a*root3

#

Is the 30-60-90 rules

deft shadow
#

Yes

#

But angle B is 30°

#

Which means that 3/2 is a×root3

marble yarrow
#

We divide

#

By root 3

deft shadow
#

Yes

#

So FC is?

marble yarrow
#

3/2 over root 3

#

3root3 over 2

deft shadow
#

No

#

3/2 ÷ √3

marble yarrow
#

3/2root3

deft shadow
#

Ok

#

So go add them up

#

Then u will get the answer

marble yarrow
#

Yep and finished thankfully

#

Thanks

deft shadow
#

Ok

I already know that the sum of all numbers from 1 to n is n*(n+1)/2

But is there a formula for the sum of the sum of all the numbers up to all the numbers up to n

For example for 4 it would be
1+1+2+1+2+3+1+2+3+4

well we know that :
$\sum_{k=1}^n k = \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$

lean otter

so you just calculate :
$\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{n(n+1)}{2}$

flat frigateBOT

thats easy tho

lean otter

Is there no formula do I have to calculate it?

#

Like no quick way to get it like with n*(n+1)/2

there isnt a formula for this, thats something you can calculate yourself

spring horizon
#

a passenger trains leaves the train depot 2 hours after a freight train left the same depot. the freight trin is traveling 20 km/h slower than the passenger train. Find the rat eof each train, if the passenger train overtakes the freight train in three hours

woven swan
spring horizon
#

im not very good at word problems

woven swan
#

let’s say
p = speed of passenger train
f = speed of freight train
we know the freight train is 20km/h slower than the passenger train so f = p-20

#

you can determine the duration for each of the trains

#

we know speed * duration = distance

#

the distance traveled by both trains is equal, so you’ll have an equation you can solve

spring horizon
#

ooohh ok

lusty bronze
#

If 5^x = 3^y = 45^z, then prove that 1/z = 1/x +2/y

glass carbon
#

solve 5^x = 45^z for x and 3^y = 45^z for y

#

then do 1/x + 2/y

#

you'll get 1/z

lusty bronze
#

How tho

#

for example

flat frigateBOT

Uh okay

#

That makes no sense me

It's just log properties

If you haven’t done log. Consider $5=3^{\frac{y}{x}}$ and $3^y = 3^{2z} \times 5^z$

lean otter
#

what "x" equals

safe radishBOT
lean otter
#

it goes to infinite but i cant understand how i should solve it

swift fjord
#

whats the pattern even

#

why is the last 48/2

lean otter
#

i dont know

#

i cant understand the pattern too

swift fjord
#

yea are you sure theres a patter

lean otter
#

i think we should give a name for pattern than equal it

#

but cant find pattern

#

yes i am sure

swift fjord
#

yea first you have to figure out the pattern

#

but its like

#

i dont get why theres 48/2

#

intead of 48/x+something

lean otter
#

i think it can be like x+24 than x+12

swift fjord
#

yea but before that is

#

x+ 48/x+24

#

that cant be it

lean otter
#

i know the answer

#

i can say it if it can be help

swift fjord
#

yea whats the answer

lean otter
#

it is 8

swift fjord
#

you know the denominator comes to 12

#

and for that the smaller denomator comes to 12

#

ok i get the sequence

lean otter
#

do you find pattern

swift fjord
#

yea i think

#

but i dont know why the answer is 8

#

is the answer not -12

lean otter
#

it is 8

#

choices are 6, 8, 12, 16 and 24

swift fjord
#

theres like a chain of 12 denomators

#

the pattern is that basically

#

but i dont get why it ends on

#

48/2

#

it should end on 48/12 or something

lean otter
#

can you explain solution

#

i really didnt understand

swift fjord
#

basically i think the

#

denomitaor repeaats

#

x + 48/(x+48/(x+48/12)

#

every denomitaor should be

#

8+4

#

and then

#

48/12

#

continues

#

8+4

#

x is 8

#

8+4 is 12

#

48/12 is 4

#

which keeps it going

lean otter
#

how were we going to do it without knowing that the answer was 8

#

shouldn't we name the pattern part

#

like "a" or something

swift fjord
#

uh idk what you mean by that

#

what i did

#

was

#

ok obviously subtract 5 from both sides

#

then divide by 4 and cross multiply

#

you know the sequence is = 12

#

actually yea i dont know how you would solve with guess and checking 8 from there

lean otter
#

sad

#

i still trying but cant find it

#

can i tag for helpers

swift fjord
#

yes

lean otter
#

@foggy salmon Has your question been resolved?

Troposphere

foggy salmon
edgy cloud
#

If the denominator goes arbitrarily close to 0, the whole fraction gets close to infinity, yes.

foggy salmon
#

note that $e^{-z}-1$ is $O(z^m)$ for all $m\ge 0$

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

doesnt m=0 work?

#

we get

#

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{(-z)^n}{n!}$

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

oh wait

#

oh wait u said all m>=0

#

lol

foggy salmon
#

i feel weird rn

foggy salmon
#

changing it from e^(-z) to e^(z) feels drastically different

edgy cloud
#

The usual meaning of an equation with O(...) on both sides is that for every way to replace each O(...) on the left with a concrete function that satisfies the growth rate, there will be a way to replace all O(...) on the right that makes the whole equation true.

#

So just e^{-z}-1 is a counterexample to the claim.

foggy salmon
#

ahh so O(f(z)) = O(g(z)) means asymtotically equal?

edgy cloud
#

Not quite.

foggy salmon
#

oh wait actually

#

i forgot to specify, complex domain

#

so infinity means complex infinity from any direction

edgy cloud
foggy salmon
#

it was ambiguous earlier

edgy cloud
foggy salmon
#

:c

#

thanks for help still tho

edgy cloud
#

Hmm. I think in that case m >= 0 would still allow O(z^m) to be close to -1 arbitrarily far from the origin. My concrete example of e^{-z}-1 won't work now, though.

foggy salmon
#

im not too sure how it works on the boundary

#

or 1/(1+ O(1))

#

hm actually

#

i think its just 1+O(1)

#

or

#

O(1)

#

yea um

#

i think m>0 is trivially false

#

take a polynomial (only entire functions bound by z^m)

#

trivially just take z^m

#

1/(1+z^m) goes to 0 as z goes to inf

#

1/(1+O(z^m))

#

while 1+O(z^m) goes to inf

edgy cloud
#

I'm slightly unsure here, but I don't think there's any implicit assumption that the function O(z^m) stands for is even differentiable.

foggy salmon
#

i guess?

foggy salmon
#

wait nvm geometric doesnt use differentiation idk im confused

edgy cloud
#

I don't understand why you keep speaking about geometric series.

foggy salmon
#

oh yea

#

this thing said geometric series

#

so i kinda just took it as a geometric series plugged it and it works i think

#

when m<0

edgy cloud
#

Huh.

#

I'd be wary of trusting that source, unless there's a proof that makes it clearer why the heck it thinks it would be true for m=0.

#

There doesn't seem to be anything "geometric series" about the actual claim.

foggy salmon
#

cant we write like

#

that =

#

$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} [O(z^m)]^n = O(z^m)$

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

wait

edgy cloud
#

For which limit of z?

foggy salmon
#

this feel weird

#

inf

#

ok this fails hm

#

oh wait

#

no it doesnt fail

#

cuz m<0

#

LOL

#

oops

edgy cloud
#

Let's write the claim out in full without the "=" abbreviation:
$$\forall f:\bC\to\bC: \Bigl[\begin{array}{c} \exists g\in O(z^m)\bigl[ f(z)=\frac{1}{1+g(z)}\bigr] \\implies \exists h\in O(z^m) \bigl[ f(z) = 1+h(z) \bigr] \end{array}\Bigr]$$

flat frigateBOT
#

Troposphere

foggy salmon
#

m<=0

#

but m=0 and m<0 are completely different to show so lets go with m<0

edgy cloud
#

m < 0 seems to be fairly easy. For large enough |z|, we have |1+g(z)| > 1/2, so everything happens in an area where 1/(1+z) is Lipschitz, and so the bound on g translates to a bound on h.

foggy salmon
#

$\lim_{z \to \infty} \frac{|g(z)|}{|z^m|} \le K$

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

Lipschitz

#

whats that

edgy cloud
foggy salmon
#

oh cool

edgy cloud
#

It basically means that the difference in h(z) will be at most a constant times the difference in g(z) whenever |1+g(z)| > ½.

foggy salmon
#

oh man

#

i feel

#

ill just use geometric series to do this

toxic stratus
#

pret sure i just ignored the case where m=0 when i did the proof for this

foggy salmon
#

like its the easiest way ik to throw stuff into numerator

toxic stratus
#

i dont think it works

foggy salmon
#

it doesnt work when denom=0

edgy cloud
#

However, for the m=0 case, $f(z) = e^{|z|}$ seems to be a counterexample. We then have $g(z) = e^{-|z|} - 1$ which is a perfectly cromulent $O(z^0)$ function, but $h(z)$ becomes $e^{|z|}-1$ which is definitely not $O(z^0)$.

flat frigateBOT
#

Troposphere

foggy salmon
#

whats with the fancy words :c

#

mayb try complex analysis terminology

edgy cloud
#

Ignore "prefectly cromulent" -- that's a meme, not technical content.

foggy salmon
#

but i think cromulent means it satisfies conds for a ... function

#

oh oki

edgy cloud
#

Sorry.

foggy salmon
#

thanks

#

phew

#

that took awhile

toxic stratus
#

like

foggy salmon
#

nani!

toxic stratus
#

if you look at the proof that i wrote

#

it dies when you try to bound f

foggy salmon
#

oh wait

#

there is a proof

#

OOPS

#

LOL

#

wait

#

how am i so

#

bat like

toxic stratus
#

this doesnt work when m=0

foggy salmon
#

ok

#

well

#

does this work

#

$\sum_{n=0}^{\infty} [O(z^m)]^n = O(z^m)$

#

lol

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

from the first one to geo series

toxic stratus
#

you need a 1

#

for m<0 you need a 1

foggy salmon
#

how wld i use geo series

#

ah ok

#

i pulled out a half n manipulated a bit n got this

#

$\frac12 \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} [\frac{1+O(z^m)}{2}]^n = O(z^m)$

flat frigateBOT
foggy salmon
#

yay?

toxic stratus
#

you cant do that

foggy salmon
#

:c

#

i did

#

wot

#

:c

#

$\frac{1}{1+O(z^m)} = \frac12 \frac{1}{1-(\frac{1+O(z^m)}{2})}$

While we are determining whether they are a proper subset/incomparable, do we count the subsets of the element type subset or we don't? I mean is cardinality important? Cuz for the solution B2, it says that "the elements in the sets which are elements of B" meaning it doesn't care about cardinality, while for B3 it says that A and C are incomparable due to cardinality and B is a subset of A so...

wintry axle
#

From what I understand, C's cardinality not specified so for k=3 (a subset of k >= 2 condition), it includes all of these 3: {3} {3,6} {3,6,9}

#

B's cardinality is 3 with conditions of elements of the subsets being divisible by 3 thus it includes, {3,6,9} {6,9,12} {3,6,12}

#

A's cardinality is 3 without any conditions so : {1,2,3} {2,3,4} {1,2,4} are all valid

#

Proper Subset: All values of subset is in the superset but superset has at least one more element that is not in the subset

#

Incomparable: none fully contains the other, they each have something that the other doesn't

#

!!NONE OF THESE HAS TO BE SEQUENTIAL!!

#

B2 and B3 differ because C already has every subset (element) B has (element)

#

nvm solved my own issue lol

how does telescoping work?
And how is it useful for a series like
1/1(2)(3) + 1/2(3)(4) + 1/3(4)(5).... + 1/(n)(n+1)(n+2) (I was told it can be used there)?

#

I was also having a problem with finding the numerator of the same series (partial sum).

quasi bison
#

,w partial fractions 1/(n(n+1)(n+2))

quasi bison
#

how does telescoping work?
telescoping is essentially mass cancellation of parts of adjacent terms in your summation

#

to say it in a somewhat vague way

next garden
#

Oh alright.

# flat frigate

I am still a bit confused here though, we're finding the partial sums.

#

Unless I didn't notice.

halcyon carbon
#

Hm for this question, rewrite -1/(n+1) as -2/(2(n+1)) then group the terms in a way that gives you two telescoping sums to deal with.

next garden
#

How does that make a difference though?

next garden
#

We are only seeing the terms here.

This video may help you understand telescoping sums

Sure!

unique basalt
#

when calc implicit derivative, when do we make dy/dx?

unique basalt
#

for example x + y

#

and we do derivative with respect to x

stray bluff
#

derivative of y wrt x is dy/dx

unique basalt
stray bluff
unique basalt
nova creek
#

d/dx is not a fraction, no matter what physicists tell you

stray bluff
#

dy/dx just represents the change in rate of the derivative of y with x changes

lean thorn
# unique basalt so d/dx is ilke a fraction?

it represents a ratio of infinitesimally small change in y over infinitesimally small change in x. There are times you can treat it like a fraction, but it more or less represents a change in y over a change in x.

$\frac{dy}{dx}$ represents that x is our independent variable that we're taking derivative of (hence the term "taking the derivative with respect to x"). y is our dependent variable that depends on x.

# nova creek d/dx is not a fraction, no matter what physicists tell you

well... kind of yes and no. I mean we consider the slope of a straight line a fraction, yeah? And the change in slope at a point comes down to a tangential line.

This probably goes beyond the scope of this discussion but it would also be considered a fraction in stuff like DE yeah? That's how we can separate to solve for separable diff equations.

nova creek
#

Imo, the separation found for seperable diff equations is purely a notational hack

lean thorn
#

sorry I'm talking about dy/dx, not just d/dx (should've read your comment closer haha). d/dx represents taking the derivative, but after we have a dy/dx, which represents the tangental slope of a point

nova creek
#

dy/dx is a function, and I still wouldn't call it a fraction

#

It's lim Δx->0 Δy/Δx

#

So it's the limit of a fraction

lean thorn
#

ah yeah fair enough

#

tbh it always confused me in diff eq

#

since the answer was

nova creek
#

Doesn't help that people would solve "dy/dx = x" as "multiply both sides by dx then integrate"

#

Which I think is a notational hack rather than something you can do rigorously. But hey, it works

(A – B) – (B – C) = A – B

safe radishBOT
fervent siren
#

i have to prove it and it says using set identities

compact wraith
#

these are sets and - is the complement?

fervent siren
#

i think?

lean otter
#

(A\B)\(B\C) i guess

fervent siren
#

im so confused with this question lmao

compact wraith
#

when ur confused with a question like this then draw it , either a venn diagram or make up some sets and check if it's true

#

patterns then arise and you can sometimes see how it is going to work

fervent siren
#

im trying to look at the set identities but they dont use - and +

compact wraith
fervent siren
#

thats my problem, im not even sure what to draw or how to start this

compact wraith
#

then reattempt the question

fervent siren
#

use an available help channel @opal roost

#

it looks like 14 24 44 and 48 are open

#

oh im starting to get it

#

i have to rewrite it

#

A - B also means A n notb

torn kestrel
#

How would I graph 4-cos(x/3) ?

safe radishBOT
compact wraith
#

what have u tried?

torn kestrel
#

Well first I wanted to try and identify everything. I think the amplitude is 4 and the period would be 0 I think. I don’t know if this problem has a phase shift though

compact wraith
#

instead of thinking in trig terms i prefer to think in terms of general functions

#

first of all identify the common function, that is cosx

#

it will be useful to graph cosx first

#

well in this case we dont have cosx we have -cos(x/3)

#

so the -1, what effect does this have on the function?

torn kestrel
#

Would it make the whole function negative

#

Or would you change it to be -3cos(x/3) if you minus the 4-1cos

compact wraith
#

it would reflection the function in the x axis

#

now we have -cos(x)+4

#

what does the +4 do to the function?

#

(dw we'll get to the x/3 next)

torn kestrel
#

The for would be the vertical translation

#

Or would it just be -cos 4x now

compact wraith
#

yeah so it's a vertical translation

#

so we have that 4-cos(x) is cosx first flipped in the x axis and then translated upwards by 4

#

finally the x inside becomes x/3

#

so we have 4-cos(x/3)

#

now what is the effect of x/3 (this is the hardest to remember / understand so dw if ur not sure)

torn kestrel
#

Not fully sure but would 3 be the phase shift in this equation?

compact wraith
#

well it's a stretch in the x direction by factor 3

#

let's look at cos(x)

#

Now cos(x)=0 for pi/2 and 3pi/2

#

but cos(x/3)=0 for 3pi/2 and 9pi/2

#

so them 2 points have been increased in size by a factor of 3

#

and in fact all points have

#

so whenever you have f(ax) it's a stretch of the function by a factor of 1/a in the x direction

#

putting it all together: cosx is first reflected in the x axis, it is then translated up by 4 and stretched in the x direction by a factor of 3

#

with that information you should be able to graph it

torn kestrel
#

Random question but in this case is the amplitude still 4 or no because we moved it in the equation?
