after identifying one root,
you can proceed with
polynomial long division to factorise
in which case you can approach it with stuff like
rational root theorem
in combination with polynomial/synthetic division
you responded with
i understand both now
@boreal cypress Has your question been resolved?
alright ramonov
you caught me
i dont know how to solve this
how do i solve it using those two things
you caught me
best policy is to not lie about what you do/don't know
did you actually look up polynomial long division
omg
u can do that o.o?
and no i thought i knew them seperately
just not together?
very strange method
we were never taught this lol
isnt it better just to plug in 0
for x
x^3+5x^2-7x+1
into that ^
and hope for the best
well plugging in 0 for x gives you the point (0,1),
which helps in graphing
but you'd still want to determine the x-intercept(s)
you should first look up videos on factorising and graphing polynomials
are you even searching what I'm recommending
my brain is fried
so like I said, go to sleep
and yes i have been
I'm not going to enable you anymore.
just didnt roll up sleeves
if i did adderal
id be done with all my hw
in 1 day
id be caught up
on everything l0l
instead this is me
the entire time
pinned it
in a notepad
will review tomrrow

$$u_{n+1} = \frac{n}{2(n+1)} u_{n} + \frac{3(n+2)}{2(n+1)}$$
$$w_{n} = n(3 - u_{n})$$
I have to find the limit of (un) using (wn), i already proved that (un) is increasing and converges to 3.
TwisT
$$w_{n+1} = (n+1)(3-u_{n+1})$$
TwisT
$$w_{n+1} = (n+1)(3-(\frac{n}{2(n+1)} u_{n} + \frac{3(n+2)}{2(n+1)}))$$
i'm stuck at this stage
TwisT
you mean as n goes to infinity?
How did you prove that un converges to 3, shouldn't it be 3/2 ?
yes the limit, it's 3 but i have to prove it using the definition of (wn)
Did induction
what is u0 or u1 like the starting?
u1 = -1
ah, my bad. 3 is correct, now you wanna find out the limit for wn?
Gotta find the limit of un using wn somehow
Oh, so you were supposed to find limit of un using wn
exactly
why not try wn is terms of un instead of what you did?
wdym by that ?
$$u_n = \frac{n-1}{2n} u_{n-1} + \frac{3(n+1)}{2n}$$
numbpy
Then, $$w_{n} = n(3-(\frac{n-1}{2n} u_{n-1} + \frac{3(n+1)}{2n}))$$
numbpy
still stuck with the un-1
Lemme try on my own
for sure trying on my own too
Well, I got a vague idea
basically this relies on the fact that limit of wn exists ie is finite
So, we calculate 2(wn - wn+1)
this will give an equation in un and un+1, use the original equation to substitute the value of un+1
Things will cancel and simplify a lot
how did you come up with that
well, I tried to calculate difference of wn and wn+1 cause in the limit both will go to the same number giving a zero
which we can use to equate with un, giving an equation in the limit of un
But then again, this is a weird way to do things
It's much faster to directly find out the limit of un instead of the wn shenanigans
i thought about getting the definition of wn with only n and same thing for un

Find all possible positive values of the common ratio of a geometric progression consisting of five terms that can be rearranged to form an arithmetic progression.
anyone?
is this the full question?
yes
trying for past 20 mins
what is the general form of gp
geometric progression
nah nah I'm asking the general form
and i know it as i am not a first grader 🙂
ik the full form of gp lmao
a, ar, arr, arrr...
correct
i trid this out
Hack With Techno Boy
I can help?
sure sure
So we need to solve this
:/ yes
yup
my question exercise is just a nightmare ;-;
ohh wait we need to find all possible terms of the common ratio !!
all possible positive* terms
yee got it
r >= 0
Hack With Techno Boy
so
yup
hm
If we make it r = 0, and b1 = 0 then there would be a P.A of r = 0 and first term a1 = 0
so r = 0 is surely a answer
but Not sure if its the only one
can we take terms a/rr, a/r, a, ar, arr
Wait, doing that will solve nothing
then we will find a r that will decrease and ADD in a P.S
oh yea there is no product involved lol
Ok ok
hm then r cant be equal to 0
So we have a P.G
pg?
Geometric Progression
gp...
with a , a* r , ar^2 , ar^3, ar^4
or GP yes
and to be a G.A then
ar^2 - ar = ar^3 - ar^2
ar^4 - ar^3 = ar^3 - ar^2
Because ar = a + d
and ar^2 = a + 2*d
so ar^2 - ar = a + 2d - a - d= d
or d as the difference between a1, a2 and a3 and a4 and a5 MUST be the same
so using
ar^2 - ar = ar^3 - ar^2
ar^4 - ar^3 = ar^3 - ar^2
Hack With Techno Boy
Yes
but it is not satisfying 0 as we found earlier
Now* simplify them
Aa wait
Hack With Techno Boy
Hm
again 0 not satisfying ;-;
+-1,0
but answers are three ;---;
r >= 0 **
hm then zero eliminated
0 is positive *
but in answer key it is giving there are three values of r
3?
Maybe ait
yes
Hack With Techno Boy
? the equation will be equal when r = 0
ik
Not sure about 2?
but to solve quadratics we have to remove values where 1/r is not defined
as we divided by r
Hm, 2 surely isnt a solution
as this we got 4 values
wait what you did there?

let's say i have a function $f(x) = Cx(\frac{\sqrt{x}}{3})$, but the value of C is different when x >= 10, how can I calculate the value when x = 15, in that case?
sabanigiri
lets say when x < 10, then C = 0.2, otherwise C = 0.15.
Are you just asking for
$$
f(x) = \begin{cases}C_{1}x^{3/2} & \text{if }x < 10 \ C_{2}x^{3/2} & \text{o.w.} \end{cases}
$$
how would that factor into the equation i have?
草w
hmm, not exactly. i want the value to accumulate.. if that makes sense. the curve should be continuous, but the rule just changes at x= 10.
i want the value to continue changing from where it left off of x = 10 from the previous rule.
but now with the new C value.
If you want the functions such that $\lim_{x \to 10}f(x) = D$, you can't have $C_1 \ne C_2$ while only having a $x^{3/2}$ component
草w
hmm, i don't think i am explaining this correctly. my bad.
let me create a desmos to better illustrate.
Please do, and also please answer this question
also i'm not sure i understand your answer. i'm not familiar with those terms (i'm a math pleb).
That's fine, I can try to be clearer
I'm just asking first for purpose so you don't XY-problem out later
it's for a prototype of a finance app i am working on, just in ideation phase. the use-case here is kind of complicated to explain, and the example is already super contrived.
Ok, that's fine
So what you want is a piecewise function, defined on separate pieces. The requirement that the pieces agree on x=10 means they should be continuous at x=10
yeah, that sounds right.
i almost want to shift the second curve up/down so that it aligns at x=10 with the previous fn (which used a different C value), but that process isn't clear to me.
If both pieces are $Cx(\sqrt{x}/3)$, you can't have the constants be different yet agree at $x=10$
草w
Ok, then this is a different function
I think that would look like
$$
f(x) = \begin{cases}C_{1}x^{3/2} & \text{if }x < 10 \ C_{2}x^{3/2} + C_{3} & \text{o.w.} \end{cases}
$$
草w
I guess one question is how to make $C_3$ a function of $(C_1, C_2)$ to make the function continuous?
草w
where did you get x^(3/2) here?
$x\cdot \sqrt{x} = x^{3/2}$
草w
Will this determine the generic growth of $f(x)$ as $x$ increases for your use case?
草w

So, geometry. The problem goes as followed:
A parallelogram has an angle which has a cosine of -1/15. The face of the parallelogram is 4sqrt14 and the parameter is 16. Find the sides
I have tried everything and I mean all the formulas I could find
I even created a triangle inside the parallelogram using diagonals
And converting cosine into sine using cosA = sin(90-A)
Nothing worked out for me. Help is much appreciated 🙏
im not a native english speaker so im bad english math terms but what is a parameter
Correct
its perfect
Hahaha thanks
ok so
if cos d = -1/15
then sind =
sin²x = 1 - 1/225 = 224/225
sinx = 4sqrt(14)/15
what else is 4sqrt(14) ?
the mf surface
could you follow until here
Wait how did u get sinx=4sqrt(14) 😭
Yeah yeah but the
Got it
Yess
do you know the sinus area theorem
absinGamma
yes so
wait btw
sind = 4sqrt14 / 15 not only 4sqrt14
lmao
i forgot the denominator
ok then
since the whole area is 4sqrt14
one of the triangles is 2sqrt14
area = a.b.sin/2
2sqrt14 = (x(8-x).4sqrt(14)/15)/2
what do you get when you do this
im kinda tired
i think it's x(8-x) = 15 all things done
Honestly dude past that point I am good to go. It's also really late and I gotta get up early. My mistakes are that I forgot to make the sides x and (8-x) and I couldn't figure out sin x
I did the theorem and got 224/225 but I had no idea that it made 4sqrt(14)/15
just tried to divide it by 14 to see if anything happens
and found out on coincidence
lol
Hahahaha it did all the work
Yeah go ahead idk the command 😭😭

One square is 70 m long and 50 m wide. If you increase the length by 10%, by what percentage does the area increase? What happens if you increase the width by 10% instead of the length?
Can anyone help me its urgent
Nooo
I mean just take the new area that has 10% more lenght and compare to old area
i got Inital area =3500 and
new area after 10% increase =3850\
by what percentage does the area increase?
do you guys know how to do this now
@wheat cave
maybe if you look at the formula you should find the answer faster
like its (a*1.1)*b=area
would that differ from a*(b*1.1)=area
please dont give answers

hello
i need some help on finding the derivative using the limit definition for f(x) = 8/x
im getting stuck at 8/(x+h)-8/x/h
how would i go about simplifying that
Turn the numerator into a single fraction
Mmhm
top and bottom correct?
Umbraleviathan
ok
i know the lcd is x(x+h)
but i think the main problem i have is when distributing for some reason
Multiply the left fraction by x/x and the other (x+h)/(x+h)
yep
so im left with
8x-8(x+h)/x(x+h)/h
oh bruh
u got to be kidding me
i was doing the math wrong
my bad
so would it be -8/x^2
Yes

Hello, I try to solve the integral of (1/√(1-x²) by using u-substitution but instead of define u as the whole thing inside the radical, I just define it with x² and got a different result (positif sign before ½). So, I just curious if there's a rule for u-substitution to work. Or maybe I have some careless mistake?
Watch your mouth.
The rule for u-sub is to realize a chain rule that would get the derivative of the primitive = the integrand
There's no "rule" to it and often you just gotta eye it
And not all u-subs are clear as day

Hi! I was watching a video tutorial on a question and the uploader solved an integral in the problem by taking the partial derivative of a constant. Is this valid (i.e., can you take partial derivatives of constants?)
I'm a bit confused as to why we can
λ is not a constant, with respect to λ
In other words, as you change λ, then λ changes
So it's a constant outside the integral and a variable inside the integral?
nvm I think I understand
thanks!

Can someone help me with the highlighted one?
is the rocket accelerating?
if it's accelerating at all, then the velocity is not constant, right?
yes
so that could explain why simply multiplying velocity times time doesn't give you the correct answer, yes?
Yes, but how do I find the correct answe?
How many feet does the rocket actually travel during the
second between t=10 seconds and t = 20 seconds?
I have to asnwer that
you have a table
1520 - 390?
?
aye
im confused
1520 - 390 = 1130 yes?
yes
so that tells you the average velocity between t=10 and t=20 is what?
Lol true
so 77 is a poor estimate of the average velocity over the interval
so is any other random velocity that you choose from that interval
no reason to assume that it will correctly predict the change in position during that interval
so I should be good with just 113
well 113 correctly predicts the change in height, but only because you calculated it from the change in height
And thats what they asked for
"explain why the change is not 770 feet"
glib answer: because that's not what we measured
yeah ill just be like
physics answer: because the velocity of 77 at the start of the interval did not hold constant throughout the entire interval
i.e. the velocity changed, as evidenced by the fact that it didn't travel 770 feet in 10 seconds
which part is the actual question
so basically when they ask you to make a table
i feel like its right
from the graph i can't tell, because the x axis has no labels
so i don't know where x=3 is
but by plugging in numbers close to 3, your answer looks more or less right
yea
so im feeling pretty confident
okay i submitted it so if you guys think its wrong dont tell me anymore
you can use calculus to find the actual limit but you'll still need to plug it into calculator/software
no the number is fine
awesome sauce.

Where does this u+y come from?
see the steps
I get up to the part where u = sqrt(x)-y and taking derivative of u on both sides, we get du = 1/(2sqrt(x)), but where does the (u+y) come from in the next step?
Okay
$\begin{aligned}du=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}dx;dx=2\sqrt{x}du\ u+y=\sqrt{x}-y+y=\sqrt{x}\ dx=2\left( u+y\right)du \end{aligned}$
$\dd{u}$
NEONPerseus
right dx=2(u+y)du my mistake
Zamarus
okay, i understand the first line, but i'm still not understanding the 2nd line: u+y = sqrt(x-y+y = sqrt(x) part
look at the value for u and add y
u=sqrt(x)-y so if you add y it's sqrt(x)
may i ask if there's a reason why we can add y specifically?
No it's more like you have sqrt(x) and you notice that if you add y you can write it in terms of u and y
got it
that makes sense thank you

I need help with geometry and im not sure how to do this type of work, i have missed previous years and i am in severe need of help
You can use
1)Thales theorem
2) similiar triangle property
Im not sure what those are-
To learn more about Triangles enroll in our full course now: https://infinitylearn.com/microcourses?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=Soical&utm_campaign=DM&utm_content=8h-BeLqfa3E&utm_term={keyword}
In this video, we will learn:
0:00 what are similar triangles?
0:33 sides of similar triangles
1:58 angles of similar triangles
To watch more vi...
Khan Academy maybe
YT
Ok i'll try thanks ig
I understand whats going on in the video but i dont understand how that corresponds to the issue i am currently having
There is only 1 triangle in my problem
@deep depot
We use similarity to prove the thales theorem
There's 2
small triangle inside the bigger one

KPQ and KJK ???
This triangle
And this ∆ too
And notice that both triangles are similar
They have same angles

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
number 3
i haven't used it in a while so i've forgetten a bit
do you know how to find the derivative or are you unsure what to do after finding it?
how to find the derivativ
true, you could figure it out if yk how the square root graph works
but anyway
like do you know the power rule
kinda
can we use the non calculus method though since this work doesn't include this topic\
or you could know the derivative of sqrt(x) is 1 / 2sqrt(x)
hm
well
when we expand it out
$-2\sqrt{x-9} - 16$
Kihei
since there's a negative number in front of the bracket, the expression inside the bracket must be minimum for the overall expression to be maximum
meaning
root(x-9) must be minimum
minimum value of root(x) = 0
thus
-2*8
=-16
yeah pretty much what I was gonna say

would I be correct?
No
No
ok : (
Then I am confused
it always confuses me on which line we are talking about when doing this
for example on the first one if we are saying as x goes to -4 from the left down it would just be that f(x) is going to - infinity ?
yes that would be going to negative infinity
does that mean that as it goes from the right to left it also goes to - infinity or would it get closer to 2
when it says x approaches -4 (-) side, it's referring to the lower one
and when x approach -4 (+), it's referencing the upper one
and when x approaches positive infinity, as the number goes up ex: x=10, x=100, x=1000, what number does the curve get closer and closer to?
no.
as the value of x goes to infinity, where does the curve get closer and closer to
-4 ?
what happens to the y value as the x values approaches -4 from the right side
it gets closer to -4
the y value
umm in my mind it just sitting at 2 but I know that wrong
it increases
so it would increase to infinity
yes
ahhh'
lim from the right approaches infinity
so would the + also indicate that it goes right to left
yes
-4*
no
wait
- inf?
If the left and right limit are different the limit DNE
what does DNE mean
👍

do you know how to tell between which curve

✅
when to use the left curve or when to use the right curve?
from the + or - right
yes

hi for some reason they keep getting 320
if you just type 320 without the decimal?
or you guessed the 30?
what does "for some reason they keep getting 320" mean?
i dont know how they keep getting 320
who are they
the college/math website
originally they have 72 g
and in the end we need 216
so the added 144 comes from the change
which has to be a part of the 60% solution
what is 216?
thats 45% more than the original
480*0.45
tbh id idnt get nothing
im just curious how they get 320 what to do with that number I got
0.75 and 144
so this surplus is part of the more dense solution, so if we change x ml we have x*0.45 extra dextrose 144=0.45x , solve it
now i got 320
thats what i got
0.15+0.60=0.75
oops i didnt put negative
sorry
thank you

Could someone help me understand this? The prof never showed implicit differentiation with exponential functions, especially with e^y. I know e^x derivative is just e^x, is e^y the same?
I don't find their explanation helpful. How do they get the dy/dx on the third step of the first line?

i get to check p-a.s we have to check the probability of X \neq Y but how does that integral exactly appear and what changes if the function f was another function?
@wind siren Has your question been resolved?
@sonic wadi
well its the density of the measure
to find the probability of a set, you integrate the density over that set
can you elaborate on what is the density of the measure?
and why are we not integrating x,y

1 sig fig
woah neat handwriting
you're subtracting them, yes? @cold pumice
i am also getting 0.856
oh
i see where you went wrong
the 0.10000 is indeed 5 sigfigs
not 1
when you have zeros trailing post decimal point after a non-zero number, those are significant figures
its similar to 25.00
the 2 zeroes after the 5 and decimal point are considered significant
similarly, the 4 zeroes after the 1 and the decimal point are considered significant
yeah lol
sigfig rules are terrible its okay
they are easy, but sometimes gets to be unintuitive like this
thats why its much better to write things in scientific notation
like
$0.10000 = 1.0000 \times 10^{-1}$

@woven hare Has your question been resolved?
How do y do this without the function given?
You need to convert each of these integrals into the 3 different types of functions for each problem
Its 4 subintervals right?
Yea
So the distance between each variable must be the same
So its 0 to 25 26 to 50 50 to 75 76 to 100
Oh
With the numbers you have given there you need to solve the approximate g(x) at those variables
So find g(x) at 25, 50, 75, and you already have 100
Don’t you need to know the g(x) at 25
Yes
Idk the equation
You have to find the variables there by finding average slopes between the given g(x)s
Is that derivative
It doesn’t matter what the function is, just find the average g(x) and the answer will be a given riemann subinterval
As in add the interval together and divide by 2?
From 0 to 40 it’s 165 average g(x) but the x is 20
I’m lost
Then fine the average from 20 to 40
Thats 30
Then the average from 20 to 30
Which is 25
Oh
What about 40 n 70
That would be 55
Then 55 to 40 is 47.5
47.5 to 55 is 51.25

can anyone
You're given the coordinates, and coordinates are in the form of (x, y). Plug that into the inequality and see if it's true
For example, let's take (1, 3) and the inequality you have $y \leq 6 - x$. Plug in 1 and 3, so you have $ 3 \leq 6 - 1$, simplify and you get $3 \leq 5$ and that's true so (1, 3) is a solution to that inequality

i feel like there is smth wrong
For (i), did you simplify it?
,rccw
am i supposed to find the value for n
You are [supposed to find the value of n] yes
Wait for the expansion what did you do?
i did the binomial theorem thing
The line you wrote to begin with was fine here
But, for example, you know $\binom{n}{1} = n$ and $\binom{n}{2} = \frac{n(n-1)}{2}$
@junior smelt
yea
And of course you know how to work with, say, $\pqty{-\frac{x}{3}}^{2}$ so that you can write it as some coefficient for $x^{2}$
i think so
@junior smelt
Hmm, why do you have terms like these?
2xn-2
From here, you said that you have
[
(1)^n + \binom{n}{1} (1)^{n-1} \pqty{-\frac{x}{3}} + \binom{n}{2} (1)^{n-2} \pqty{-\frac{x}{3}}^{2} + \ldots \
]
@junior smelt
yea
From here we can replace the n choose 1 and the n choose 2
yes
And we can also square the brackets here to get that x^2 coefficient
yes
All we need to do is replace those terms, and of course 1 to any power is still 1
So then, e.g. replacing the binomial coefficents and the powers of 1 would give that
[
1 + n\pqty{-\frac{x}{3}} + \frac{n(n-1)}{2} \pqty{-\frac{x}{3}}^{2} + \ldots
]
@junior smelt
huh
And then you can simplify that a bit more of course
$1^{n-2} = 1$ and anything multiplied by 1 is just the same thing
@junior smelt
okayy
Similarly for 1^{n-1} = 1 and you're just multiplying that by something
But anyways, if you simplify that, then you should get that you have
[
1 - \frac{n}{3} x + \frac{n(n-1)}{18} x^{2} + \ldots
]
Do you agree?
@junior smelt
See ya later!
