woow

#

okay i understand

#

so it needs to be

#

bijective

#

in order

#

to get an inverse

lapis shadow
#

yeah

brave narwhal
#

okay thanks so so much

lapis shadow
#

👍

brave narwhal
#

waitttt

#

this one is also neither nor both

#

but it has an inverse tho

brave narwhal
#

bro this one is obviously not bijective..

wintry condor
#

So the domain isn't R

brave narwhal
#

ach so jaa

#

the one inside the root has to be defined

wintry condor

frosty estuary
#

my set theory is a bit rusty : would (a without c) cut b be option 1 or option 2?

frosty estuary
#

or maybe even something different?

lapis shadow
#

a without c cut b ?

#

what does cut mean

frosty estuary
lapis shadow
#

oh

#

ok can u shade A \ C?

lapis shadow
quasi bison
lapis shadow
#

A - C is also valid notation right?

quasi bison
#

yeah sure

frosty estuary
#

this would be a \ c, no?

lapis shadow
#

yes

#

now what part does this region and B have in common

frosty estuary
#

so it would be only the middle part then, aka picture 2 i sent earlier?

lapis shadow
#

yeah picture 2

frosty estuary
#

okay 👍 thanks

pseudo peak
#

I'm using the definition of the directional derivative as
$$
f(\vec{x} + h\vec{v}) = f(\vec{x}) + hdf(\vec{x})(\vec{v}) + o(h)
$$
From this I can see why
$$
df(\vec{x})(\vec{v} + \vec{w}) = df(\vec{x})(\vec{v}) + df(\vec{x})(\vec{w})
$$
But I can't see why
$$
df(\vec{x})(\lambda \vec{v}) = \lambda df(\vec{x})(\vec{v})
$$

Frisk17

final halo
#

df(x)(v) is matrix multiplication right?

pseudo peak
final halo
#

Oh so you currently just have this thing df(x) defined as above and you want to prove its linear?

final halo
#

Aha

#

Use the definition but with (hλ)v versus h(λv)

pseudo peak
flat frigateBOT
#

Frisk17

safe radishBOT
#

@pseudo peak Has your question been resolved?

final halo
#

No the right hand side should be hλdf(v)

#

hλ is just some new number call it h' if you like

#

It also goes to 0 as h goes to 0 so perfectly fine to just replace with it in the definition

Any tips on where to go with this?

plucky sequoia
#

what grade are u in

lean otter
#

What do you mean?

plucky sequoia
#

omg this is confusing

#

you made me confused

lean otter
#

Sorry to inconvenience you.

pseudo scroll
#

Factor 3/4 out and then trig sub I suppose

lean otter
#

I'm sorry but I'm a bit tired. If i factor out 3/4

#

I'm unsure of the algebra

pseudo scroll
#

$\frac{4}{3}\int_0^{2 \pi} \frac{dt}{(\frac{2t}{\sqrt{3}} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})^2 + 1}$

flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

pseudo scroll
#

Everything inside the square can be equated to tan theta

#

Have fun with the limits

lean otter
#

Yeah lots of replacement's

#

Gonna keep limits same and just replace back

#

Or is that a bad idea?

pseudo scroll
#

Nah it's alright

#

I'd do that too

#

Ah I see you've done that from the start

lean otter
#

Ight, thank you gonna try again 🤣

#

Yes.

pseudo scroll
#

There's a better way actually

lean otter
#

Its Gonna be an arctan

pseudo scroll
#

Can I try

lean otter
#

After i factor

#

Go ahead

pseudo scroll
#

$\int \frac{d\theta}{1 + 1 - \sin \theta}$

lean otter
flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

pseudo scroll
lean otter
#

Explains the sub

pseudo scroll
#

Oh the fancy sub

lean otter
#

Lol

pseudo scroll
#

$\int \frac{d\theta}{1 + (\sin^2 \frac{\theta}{2} + \cos^2 \frac{\theta}{2} - 2\sin \frac{\theta}{2} \cos \frac{\theta}{2})}$

#

Boy

lean otter
#

IDK if it's fancy or clever

flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

pseudo scroll
#

$\int \frac{d\phi}{1 + (\sin \phi - \cos \phi)^2}$

#

phi is theta / 2 for convenience

#

Oh nvm this won't work :(

#

I spent far too much time on the latex

lean otter
#

That's the joke of it

pseudo scroll
#

Lmfao

lean otter
#

If you don't know this sub

flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

lean otter
#

That's not taught and given on examz

pseudo scroll
#

I used that sub to solve a question lately

#

$\int \frac{dx}{ \cos x + \sin x + 1}$

flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

pseudo scroll
#

Worked like a charm

lean otter
#

Can you please show me how this factorization works

pseudo scroll
#

Which one

plucky elk
lean otter
plucky elk
pseudo scroll
#

$\int \frac{dt}{\frac{3}{4}[\frac{4}{3}(t - 0.5)^2 + 1]}$

flat frigateBOT
#

NEONPerseus

lean otter
#

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh

pseudo scroll
#

3/4 is a constant multiple now so it comes out of the integral

#

And 4/3 is absorbed into the square

lean otter
#

That's because you first divide by 4

#

Then 3

#

When factoring that expression i think

lilac vapor
#

Hello, I'm trying to understand how to get 2root2 from this equation

lilac vapor
#

I understand that root6^2 is 6, but what is (-root2)^2 simplifying to?

empty gyro
#

What happens when you multiply a negative by another negative

lilac vapor
#

It becomes positive, but that doesn't really help my thought process

#

My thinking is that (-root2)(-root2) = root2 but I think maybe that's wrong

kindred tulip
#

negative root2 times negative root2

lilac vapor
#

so then I'm left with root(6+root2) = 2root2?

#

but how

kindred tulip
#

no

#

its 2

#

6+2

#

root8

#

2root2

lilac vapor
#

so then is (-root2)(-root2) = 2?

kindred tulip
#

yep

lilac vapor
#

I thought it was root 2

kindred tulip
#

yeah

lilac vapor
#

I see

kindred tulip
#

root has gone

lilac vapor
#

ok and ofc root8 = 2root2

#

I didn't realize it would take away the root when multiplying two roots like that

kindred tulip
#

its not going

#

root2 . root2 --> root(2.2)

#

root4 is 2

#

thats why

#

negative being positive because (-).(-)=(+)

lilac vapor
#

that makes more sense thank you

tame onyx
#

I was wondering if I have |x| and if I am asked for it to be compressed or stretched in these ways would my provided answers be correct if not what am I doing wrong

Horizontally compressed by factor of 4 = |1/4x|
Vertically compressed by factor of 4 = 1/4|x|
Horizontally stretched by factor of 4 = |1/4x|
Vertically stretched by factor of 4 = 4|x|

obtuse jackal
#

Play around on desmos and find out

tame onyx
#

I am mostly just confused for when it says factor of 4 when I need to use 1/4 and 4 and wasn't sure if I was using them in the correct places

obtuse jackal
#

Follow the points

#

Fix a point and see where it goes

#

Like horizontally compressed by a factor 4: means f(1) should be found at g(1/4). So you replace x by 4x such that g(x) = f(4x), i.e. g(1/4) = f(1)

tame onyx
#

ok I think I understand that better now, I will test that out and close this now

You and a friend are standing on balconies of nearby builings. Your balcony is 40 ft above the ground andd your friends is 28 ft above the ground. When you loo kat your friend the angle of declination is 18.5 degrees. When you look at the top of your friend's building the angle of inclination is 44.2. Note: These angles are also called the angles of depression and elevation respectively. Use right triangles to determine the height of your friend's building.

#

does anyone know discrete math for computing

lusty spear
#

?

signal cove
#

idk

lusty spear
#

lol that woudl be a good thing to know

#

because thats what we wanna find out

#

my guess would be

#

whether or not these P_i are all equivalent

#

but thats onyl a guess

#

I think I could help you out, but I need to know what consistent means in this case

signal cove
#

a system is consistent if every formula can be true at the same time

#

@lusty spear

lusty spear
#

ahh alright thanks

#

so basically they are asking if the set that contains all the formulas is satisfyable

#

if thats what its calles in english

#

so

#

give me a moment

signal cove
#

kk

lusty spear
#

what I'd try to do would be tranfsorming them

#

so for example Y -> Z = ~Y v Z

#

thats more handy imo

#

and same for P3

#

and P4

#

then Idk how you guys exactly use these truth trees

#

I'd just go over the possibilities and conclude whether or not it works

#

do you have an example for a truth tree ?

signal cove
lusty spear
#

ok sorry I have never really seen this before

#

what I'd do , maybe that helps you too is this

#

ok to keep it simple

#

I dont wanna use anything that you might not be using in your courser

#

so from P3 we know that Y has to be 1

#

therefore from P2 we know that Z has to be 1 aswell

#

because ~Y is going to be 0

#

then from P4 we know that ~Y will evaluate to 0 and therefore ~X has to be 1 so X has to be 0

#

then check that for P1

#

X = 0 => ~X = 1 done

#

also done for Y=1

#

so I'd say its consistent for X = 0, Y=1 and Z=1

#

but how youd show that with your tree idk I am sorry

#

I am not familiar with these trees

fickle trail
#

I don’t understand this

spice grove
#

Suppose 2 theta is x.

#

Yes?

fickle trail
#

OK

#

But it’s not a variable

#

It’s an angle

#

Same logic applies?

spice grove
#

i never said x is a variable either.

#

It's you guessing.

#

But yes, same logic applies.

fickle trail
#

Hmmm so it’s kinda like substitution?

spice grove
#

It's an identity.

devout needle
fickle trail
devout needle
#

he used the second one

#

in ur example

fickle trail
#

I see difference of two squares or something from the first line but I don’t know I’d that could help or go in the reverse direction to make even more work this problem

lean otter
#

cos(2x)=cos^2(x)-sin^2(x), 2theta is used for x

fickle trail
#

Sin is so much easier than cos lol

#

Just the one identity to use for sin(2x)

lean otter
#

you only have to memorize cos(2x)=cos^2(x)-sin^2(x)

#

the others are just using the identity cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)=1

fickle trail
#

OK..

safe radishBOT
#

@fickle trail Has your question been resolved?

zinc token
#

alternatively if you know the e^i theta definition for sin

#

you can derive it

spice grove
#

I doubt they do.

zinc token
#

then memorization is probably a good idea

spice grove
#

Could just derive using cos(A+B) formula

(x-2)^2=(x+2)

flint prawn
#

well why do you go for square terms anol
you can just simplify it directly

#

just go step by step

#

simplify rhs first

lean otter
#

Is there a way solve this using stars and bars?

quasi bison
#

you are counting the integer solutions of p+q+r=27 subject to 1 ≤ p < q < r and p+q > r

slow fern
#

Yes

quasi bison
#

let x := p-1, y := q-p-1, z := r-q-1

#

the conditions p ≥ 1, q > p, r > q are equivalent to x ≥ 0, y ≥ 0, z ≥ 0 resp.

#

we get p = x + 1, q = y + p + 1 = x + y + 2, and r = z + q + 1 = x + y + z + 3

#

thus p+q+r = 27 becomes 3x + 2y + z + 6 = 27

#

and p+q > r becomes x + 1 + x + y + 2 > x + y + z + 3, or x > z...

#

does that help us any?

#

if the goal's to specifically employ the stars-and-bars method, i believe you'd be out of luck.

slow fern
#

Only stating all the possibilities leads to the answer I guess

bold aurora
#

I tried ratio test to see if it converges absolutely, but I got a 1, not sure where to go next

zinc token
#

recall the theorem statement of the ratio test

plucky elk
#

should just be alternating series test

zinc token
#

ok yeah thats probably faster

bold aurora
zinc token
#

have you checked with wolfie

bold aurora
zinc token
#

yup

#

but that means you probably need to try something else

bold aurora
zinc token
#

,w (5^n + n!)/(3 + (n+2)!)

zinc token
#

hmm

bold aurora
#

Maybe I did the ratio test wrong?

zinc token
#

I really should not be trying to do analysis while this sleep but

#

it looks fine

#

you said it's monotone

bold aurora
#

I looked at the root test too but it looked pretty undoable. Integral test is out of the question with the factorials

zinc token
#

maybe we can try using the monotone convergence theorem here

#

just to prove its convergent

bold aurora
#

So maybe I’m missing a comparison?

zinc token
#

what would you compare it to though

bold aurora
#

If I knew that I wouldn’t be missing it 😛

zinc token
#

hmm

#

my first thought would be to get rid of either 5^n or n!

#

from the numerator

bold aurora
#

If I get rid of the n! It will diverge by the ratio test

#

However, that’s not much use now that I think about it, it will be greater than this so it diverging isn’t useful :/

zinc token
#

what if we get rid of 5^n

#

intuitively n!/3+(n+2)! seems to be convergent

bold aurora
#

We get the same inconclusive ratio test, no?

#

Oh from the numerator

zinc token
#

yeah

#

no idea if we can somehow show it's absolutely convergent

bold aurora
zinc token
#

hm

#

yes you are right I am sleepy

bold aurora
#

Besides I don’t even know if I can show that that converges either, it’s the same ratio test 😦

zinc token
#

perhaps getting rid of the 3 from the denominator might help?

#

that would give us an upper bound

#

(I'm unrigorously ignoring the alternating series bit)

bold aurora
zinc token
#

I'm not using the ratio test here

bold aurora
#

Then idk how to show that the new series we have converges either

zinc token
#

converges or absolutely converges

bold aurora
#

Neither

#

If we can show that (5^n + n!)/(n+2)! converges than we are done anyway

zinc token
#

we can actually

plucky elk
#

you should be splitting the term into two series

#

sum 5^n / (n+2)! + sum n! / (n+2)!

bold aurora
#

Oh now that could be interesting

#

let me try

zinc token
#

the sequence of the partial sums on the right piece is most certainly monotone and bounded so it converges.

#

probably the same on the left piece too but to avoid saying something wrong I'm going to go to sleep

bold aurora
#

Left one converges by ratio test, right one converges by duh

zinc token
#

well "duh" is not an acceptable proof in an exam I'm guessing

#

try leaving it as an exercise to the grader sotrue

flat frigateBOT
#

Mehdi_Moulati

plucky elk
#

Mehdi's expression is very elegant. a lazier way is just to use p-series comparison test

shut inlet
#

p-series is better tbh

safe radishBOT
#

@bold aurora Has your question been resolved?

bold aurora
#

Oh, instead of the duh proof?

bold aurora
plucky elk
#

right

zinc token
#

eh still good to state it

bold aurora
#

Yeah, I'll write ~ 1/n^2, converges by asymptotic comparison test

#

Thanks everyone

neat onyx
#

There are three unknown numbers. The mean of these three numbers is 8. The mean of the first two numbers ls 5. One of the numbers ls the double of one of the other two numbers.
What are the three numbers?

neat onyx
#

One of the equations I came up with

#

Not sure exactly where to go from here

safe radishBOT
#

@neat onyx Has your question been resolved?

neat onyx
#

2nd equation could be
X+y+z=24 I think but then idk what to make 3rd equation and I think I need one

#

<@&286206848099549185>

#

I think the numbers are 14, 7 and 3 but idk how to formally calculate it

#

Well fully

#

Or if there Is one or just logic

#

And shown by trial and error

pallid spade
#

Um, so you have 3 numbers.
x + y + z = 24
x + y = 10
One of the numbers is double the other two and it cannot be x or y because they're both smaller than z. It can be both: z = 2y or z = 2x

2x + x + y = 24, so your answer is correct. All you can do is simplify it to 3x + y = 24 (just sum the two equal values).

#

If you have to find the numbers themselves, you already know that z is 14.
z = 2x
x = 7
And y = 3

Or if z = 2y then y = 7 and x = 3

#

Here's how you calculate it:
z = 2x
x = 7
x + y + z = 24
7 + y + 14 = 24 (plug in the values we know to find the unknown one)
21 + y = 24
y = 24 - 21
y = 3

leaden scaffold
#

so basically im trying to calculate the 31st term in this sequence

leaden scaffold
#

I was told that the formula an=a1+(n-1)d would work here..

#

but what even is my d?

#

I have both 3j and -4j...

stray socket
#

Split it up

lilac patio
#

you can split it, there's also special formulas for cubes and sqaures

$\sum (A \pm B) = \sum A \pm \sum B$

I don't know if 4 or -4 would be my d in an=a1+(n-1)d

The whole thing is negative though once you subtract it from the(3j)^2 part

#

OH

Damn it I'm getting this wrong

I split it it using the arithmetic sequence formula and partial sums formula

...

#

I was working on it for 30 minutes

#

yes, but whyz/

#

?

rich stratus
#

Umm

#

Wait a minute

leaden scaffold
#

ok

rich stratus
#

Do you know this formula @leaden scaffold

#

Just put in 31 for n

#

Then multiply it by 9
Because (3j)²=9j²

leaden scaffold
rich stratus
leaden scaffold
rich stratus
#

Nope

rich stratus

#

(3j)^2

#

= 9j^2

#

Agreed

leaden scaffold
ember sphinx
leaden scaffold
#

I first substituted 1 into the equation (3j)^2-4j

#

I got 9-4=5

ember sphinx
#

Mk

leaden scaffold
#

I then took the 5 and chugged it into the formuma an=a1+(n-1)d

#

I got 5+(31-1)3

#

I got the 3 from the part of the function that said (3j)^2, btw

leaden scaffold
rich stratus
ember sphinx
#

Yea no

#

You cannot use that formula for both

#

One is an arithmetic sequence

#

The other is geometric

#

You split your summation into 2

leaden scaffold
# ember sphinx You cannot use that formula for both

Wait, so I was doing it wrong? The chemistry tutor said that's howd you do it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xavgv1m9feE

This algebra and precalculus video tutorial provides a basic introduction into solving summation problems expressed in sigma notation. It also explains how to find the sum of arithmetic and geometric sequences.

That’s right

But introduce an n^2

#

You got a whole diff situation

leaden scaffold

#

But it still be wrong

leaden scaffold

#

I would go about it a different way

leaden scaffold

#

Split it firstly so

leaden scaffold
#

please break it down like I'm layman

ember sphinx
#

$\sum ((3j)^2) - \sum (4j)$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

leaden scaffold
#

ok

rich stratus
#

Handling the 9j² part and -4j part seperately is important

ember sphinx
#

Ok let’s focus on the right first coz it’s easier and you did it right

#

That’s just $4\sum_{j=1}^{31} j$

#

Agreed?

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

Using Sn = 0.5n(a+l)

#

$S_{31} = 0.5\times 31(1 + 31)$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

This is equal to 496

#

Now put times it by 4 we have 1984

#

@leaden scaffold U with me?

#

Ready to move onto the left

leaden scaffold
#

I’m reading it all one moment

leaden scaffold
#

placed*

ember sphinx
#

$\sum_{n = 1}^{5} 2n$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

Let’s use this example

#

This is just 2(1) + 2(2) + 2(3) + 2(4) + 2(5)

#

But that is also

#

The same as

#

2(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5)

#

Put it in a calculator if you don’t BELEIVE me

#

And (1+ 2 + 3 + 4 + 5) is just

#

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}n$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

So u can take factors out

#

Yes?

leaden scaffold
#

Ok

ember sphinx
#

You can take factors out of the summation as long as they’re not like the variable involved (in our case j)

#

Now for the left side

#

This is a bit more tricky

#

$\sum_{j=1}^{31} (3j)^2 = \sum_{j=1}^{31} 9j^2 = 9\sum_{j=1}^{31} j^2$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

Agreed?

leaden scaffold
leaden scaffold
ember sphinx
leaden scaffold
#

I’m following

ember sphinx
#

Mhm gimme a sec

#

Ok now we’ll go with @rich stratus idea becuase it’s nice and simple

#

Which is using this formula in the middle

#

He posted it earlier on

#

Now deriving this is not fun so we’ll just use it

ember sphinx
#

In our case n = 31

#

So plugging in numbers

rich stratus
# ember sphinx

By the way can we appreciate the fact that sigma k^3 formula is sigma k formula squared
Think about why that is the case

ember sphinx
#

We get $\frac{31(31+1)(2 \times 31 + 1)}{6}$

flat frigateBOT
#

Mortta

ember sphinx
#

ThTs pretty cool

rich stratus
# ember sphinx

All these 3 formulas and the next ones can be proved easily using induction btw

ember sphinx
rich stratus
#

If you don't know the proves i recommend working them out yourself they are actually fun

ember sphinx
#

Ooops wrong reply but yea

#

Now we just do 93744 - 1984

#

@leaden scaffold

leaden scaffold
ember sphinx
#

The derivation of it is not the best

#

But we just know it’s true

leaden scaffold
#

Oh, that’s the general formula?

ember sphinx
#

So we use it

#

Yea general formula for summation of x^2

leaden scaffold
ember sphinx
#

X^4 I can probably find for you gimme a sec

#

@rich stratus there is a pattern here

#

I wanna say pascals but I just can’t think of it

#

Do you know it?

leaden scaffold
#

Thank you for your help Mortta.

Hey, I am pretty sure I derived it correctly, but I am struggling with finding the common denominator. I get stuck at trying to do e^t * (ln t)^2

Do I have to do (ln t)(ln t) first? And if I need to do that, how can I do that?

solid verge
#

this is the TB solution

thin bridge
#

can you identify the lcm of \
$\ln(t)$ and $t\cdot (\ln(t))^2$

flat frigateBOT
#

ℝamonov

solid verge
#

ln(t)

thin bridge
#

no

#

i want lcm,

#

NOT hcf/gcd

solid verge
#

LCM = lowest common multiple?

thin bridge
#

yes

#

e.g lcm of 6 and 2 is 6
the gcd/hcf is 2

solid verge
#

Ohhh

#

I would just multiple them together

#

So

#

I'm just gonna write it down

#

Would this be right?

thin bridge
#

that's a common multiple but not the lowest

solid verge
#

Hmm

thin bridge
#

consider what you do for this nicer example
$$\frac34 + \frac{1}{12}$$

flat frigateBOT
#

ℝamonov

thin bridge
#

how would you (efficiently) combine those

solid verge
#

(1/4) / (12/4)

thin bridge
#

whut

solid verge
#

Im sorry 😭

thin bridge
#

what's the lcm of 4 and 12

solid verge
#

2

thin bridge
#

no

solid verge
#

Ohhh

#

3

thin bridge
#

no

#

3 isn't a multiple of 4 nor 12

solid verge
#

Its 12

thin bridge
#

yes

#

the lcm of 4 and 12 is 12

solid verge
#

Ohhh okay

thin bridge
#

and can you express 3/4 as an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 12

solid verge
#

9/12

thin bridge
#

yes, and proceed with combining the fractions since the denominators are now the same

solid verge
#

So 10/12

#

5/6

thin bridge
#

yes

#

now similarly what would you do for
$$\frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{pq^2}$$

flat frigateBOT
#

ℝamonov

solid verge
#

(q^2) / (pq^2) + 1/ (pq^2)

#

(1+q^2) / (pq^2)

#

Please tell me thats right 😅

thin bridge
#

yeh

#

now bring that back to what i initially asked \
can you first identify the lcm of \
$\ln(t)$ and $t\cdot (\ln(t))^2$

flat frigateBOT
#

ℝamonov

solid verge
#

Ohhhhhhh

#

So

#

I would multiply the ln(t) by t*ln(t)

#

Lcm would be t*(ln(t))^2

thin bridge
#

you'd multiply the numerator and denominator of the fraction on the left by t*ln(t)

#

Lcm would be t*(ln(t))^2
yes

solid verge
#

Ohhh okay

#

Okay im going to try that. Thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it!

#

I did it! Thanks again! 🙂

Im having trouble proving if $\alpha + \beta > 2$ then $f$ admits a limit at $(0,0)$ direction

flat frigateBOT
junior wagon
#

idk how to proceed since alpha and beta can be any natural number

dusk vapor
#

Cute handwriting ngl

solar hazel
#

i think this can be done easier with polar coordinates if you know how to do that

junior wagon
#

i've forgotten how to switch to polar coordinates tbh 😅

#

But i can try to learn that

solar hazel
#

otherwise, maybe like squeeze theorem

#

with a "base" case with small alpha and beta

#

but like if you can just prove that the limit is 0 when alpha = 1 and beta = 2

#

then it will still be 0 when you increase alpha and beta

junior wagon
solar hazel
#

squeeze theorem?

#

you only need to look at (x,y) near (0,0) (so |x|,|y| < 1 or whatever)

#

so increasing the exponent will just make this smaller (or closer to 0 might be better to say)

junior wagon
#

ill try that

#

thanks

solar hazel
#

np ^^

junior wagon
#

does this argument work?

#

I wanted to show |f(x,y) - L| = 0

#

where L is the limit

#

like, I know the limit of f(x,y) will be 0

#

and I think our prof actually mentions we can use that

junior wagon
#

hence the absolute value

more of a conceptual question, for the solution to part b, it states that the plane thru those points has the eqn y=-2 cuz they all have that in common. is it possible for there to be an equation of a plane that passes thru 3 points but none of the x,y,z are common between the three? 2nd question: also, how would one write the equation of a plane that is diagonal (not parallel to any of the axes) (just an example would suffice

obtuse plover
#

thanks in advance

weary osprey
#

Do you mind explaining what you mean by none of the x,y,z are common between the three?

obtuse plover
#

yes,sorry, so i mean that no individual x, y, or z coordinate between the 3 coordinate pairs are the same, like for example: (1,2,3) (4,5,6) and (7,8,9) none of the x,y,z points are common between the 3 coordinate pairs

#

To answer the second question you can represent any plane in 3d in the form ax + by + cz = d. Where a,b,c and d are real numbers.

hi

obtuse plover
neat shore
#

Its a bit hard to give a concrete example where the dont share any coordinate, its much easier to find a diagonal plane (say x + y + z = 1) and then find 3 points on it that have no matching coordinates

#

So the plane through (1, 0, 0) , (0.2, 0.2, 0.6) and (3, -1, -1) satisfies your requirements.

obtuse plover
#

so like (5,4,-8) (5,7,-11) and (5,14,-18) would work?

neat shore
#

That should just be the plane x = 5

obtuse plover
neat shore
#

When you get further in your mathematics studies you learn about cross products and that allows you to find these equations

spiral crescent
neat shore
#

I doubt this person knows what a dot product is

#

judging from the question that goes along with this

spiral crescent
#

No he does, ive seen him here a lot

#

Also the solution to part b was cool, i would have just straight up gone to determinant form💀

obtuse plover
#

i took lin alg, but wasnt very strong with it, thus i didnt rlly understand the concepts and how they applied to things like this unfortunately, so ik how to calculate the dot product from the formula, but i dont rlly understand it conceptually

#

rn im just starting calc3

spiral crescent

#

but ig its multivariable calculus

Normal vector of plane means like a vector that is perpendicular to the plane

#

Please open your own help channel @honest shuttle

honest shuttle
#

oh sry i'm new din't know

neat shore
#

nw

obtuse plover
#

ok yea thats what i figured, so how would one prevent the dot product of the normal vector with direction vector of the axes from being 0

#

this is the part where i explain my LA basics are severely lacking and i should really take a look at some ocw

spiral crescent
#

I might be wrong, but i think its just a,b,c,not equal 0?

#

Cuz like the x axis direction vector is just i+0j+0k right?

neat shore
#

Yeah I think you're right

spiral crescent
#

Btw my channel also has some vector and 3d questions if u guys are interested

I want to merge models according to have a certain percentage at the end. However the limitation I am facing is that I can only ever merge 2 models at a time.

So for example if I do this in my head.
Model A 40 %
Model B 40 %
Model C 10 %
Model D 10 %

I would first merge
Model A+B 50/50% each
Then
Model C+D 50/50% each
And finally
Model AB 80% and Model CD 20%
To have Model ABCD with the percentages given above.

Now I am looking for a formula to calculate this in advance with a "arbitrary" amount of models.

Now when I do it in order like this
Model A 50% + Model B 50%
Model AB <90% + Model C >10% (I am looking to find out a formula to calculate this step)
Model ABC 90% + Model D 10%

An alternative problem would be this, where I can no longer do it in my head.

Model A 55%
Model B 15%
Model C 15%
Model D 10%
Model E 5%

I have no idea what you are describing

ruby rapids
#

hmm not sure how I can best describe it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weighted_sum_model

In decision theory, the weighted sum model (WSM), also called weighted linear combination (WLC) or simple additive weighting (SAW), is the best known and simplest multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) / multi-criteria decision making method for evaluating a number of alternatives in terms of a number of decision criteria.

#

I am basically doing this, but with the limitation, that I can only ever do 2 criteria at the same time, instead of doing everything in one go

ruby rapids
#

this might be easier to explain in voice, however I am currently not available. I should be in around 2h however. I would be fine closing this for now and reopening it then?

Hey

safe radishBOT
uneven glade
#

I need help on this linear algebra problem

#

My work so far

#

Someone please help me with this

#

I got it wrong

zinc berry
#

You cannot just assume A is symmetric.

uneven glade
#

So then what do I do from here?

#

Yeah, I was assuming because A was a square matrix

zinc berry
#

leave it as a b c d as it was given in the question

uneven glade
#

Ohh

zinc berry
#

and eventually you will have a system of equation to solve by equating each element of the 2x2 matrix with the matrix [-18, -21; -33, 0]

uneven glade
#

Sorta like this?

zinc berry
#

yes

uneven glade
#

Thanks now ill work through it

#

Ill be back in 2 min

#

What i sokve the system, i get it wrong

#

I must be doing something wrong

trim dune

Did you even try to do this?

wintry condor

!status

safe radishBOT
#
What step are you on?
1. I don't know where to begin
2. I have begun but got stuck midway
3. I got an answer but I'm told it's wrong
4. I got an answer and would like my work checked
5. I have a question about someone else's worked solution
6. None of the above
uneven epoch
#

i managed to plug in the equation then im stuck

misty coral
#

what did you get after plugging in

uneven epoch
#

x^2+(1-2x)^2=2

misty coral
#

oh so you dont know how to expand it?

uneven epoch
#

i did but ended up getting sth i cant factorise

#

(1-2x)(1-2x) right?

misty coral
#

yep

#

what did you get after expanding that

uneven epoch
#

2-2x-2x+4x^2

misty coral
#

I would disagree

#

try expanding again carefully and then collecting like terms with the rest of the stuff in the equation then using the quadratic equation

uneven epoch
#

oh sorry i added the 1 instead of multiplying🤦‍♀️

wintry condor
#

So what did you get after expanding?

uneven epoch
#

1-4x-4x^2

wintry condor
#

Good

wintry condor
uneven epoch
#

x^2+1-4x-4x^2=2
-3x^2-4x-1=0

#

i actually have the answer but this doesnt seem right

misty coral
#

check your signs

uneven epoch
#

sorry😅

#

ty @misty coral & @wintry condor i got the answer

pliant merlin
#

how can i prove that this function is surjective?

pliant merlin
#

because i suppose i cannot use an inverse of this function

#

since i don't know if it is bijective on not

junior smelt
#

Take some random $(b_{2}, a_{2}) \in B \times A$, and find some $(a_{1}, b_{1}) \in A \times B$ such that $f(a_{1}, b_{1}) = (b_{2}, a_{2}) $

flat frigateBOT
#

chartbit

pliant merlin
#

hmm

#

ok, so

#

if we have (a2, b2)

#

then the function have to be f((b2, a2)) = (a2, b2)

#

so tbh we've got what we started with, but now we've got a2 and b2 instead of a and b XD

pliant merlin
junior smelt
#

For a given element in the range, you found something in the domain that maps to it happyCat

pliant merlin
#

how could i actually put it in words?

junior smelt
#

Erm, like "given $(b,a)\in B\times A$, we have that $(a,b)\in A\times B$, and that $f(a,b) = (b,a)$" I guess?
