I have found the negation of the statement and was going to try contradiction to prove it, but not sure entirely how to disprove it
I wouldn't suggest contradiction personally
How else could i do it?
you can find the minimum of y(y+2)
What wuold i do from there
Ohh yeah i get it, thanks

Could anyone help me calculate Fs?
Were not given l, only the mass of the ball thats on a string (drawing)
If you could translate from Dutch what its saying
And theta= 28degrees
Actually its possible to figure out with context
“A metal ball with mass is attached to a string, mass of the ball is m=627 g and g = 9.81 ms^-2. Theta is 28degrees with the ceiling. Calculate Fs with the given formula”
Do you know how dot products work?
fg * l * cos theta? ithink?
Do you not have access to the length of the string?
Oh well we don't need it so I think we're good
Yes, and what would theta be?
28 + 90?..
perfect
how could we get rid of the l?
yes it is
whats the difference between |x| and ||x||?
|| x ||
uuuhm ||.x.||
double | hahahaha
|x| represents the absolute value of a real number while ||x|| represents the magnitude of a vector
Write \||x|| instead
Basically whatever you have inside |x|, make it positive and get rid of the pipes
Thanku! last question (b), theyre asking me what the range [a,b] is the solution of the dot product can be in
but i dont rlly understand that one either
You need to find the maximum and minimum value of the dot product basically, which you can do by varying the angle between the two vectors
i know that cos can be min -1 and max 1
but idk how i can continue frm that
and your dot product was $||\vb{F_g}||\cdot||\vb{l}||\cos \theta$
jewels!
so what's the range of it, if cos(θ) may be varied from -1 to 1

how do i solve if this serie convergence or diverges
see what lim n->infty n^3(6sin(1/n)-sin(6/n)) is
@delicate pollen Has your question been resolved?
ill try
is it 0 @left willow
i did lim of n^3(6sin(1/n)) - lim of n^3(sin(6/n)) and its inf-inf ?
you can't subtract infinities/undefined terms
how about you try a change the variable t=1/n
ill try
Closed due to timeout

✅
sus
is that wrong
oh wait is it
so does that make this serie converges
lim t->0 (6sin(t)-sin(6t))/t^3=6cos(t)-6cos(6t)/3t^2=(36sin(6t)-6sin(t))/6t=36-1
nth term converges to non zero term, thus series diverges
nth term converges to 0 for n^2, so we need to do some extra work to see if it converges or diverges
im confused by this, if the limit is 35 then doesnt that mean it converges?
the nth term converges, but if its not 0 the series does not converge
so if nth term converges but not = 0 then serie diverges?
if the series converges then nth term converges to 0
thats all
I'm sure you must have seen this somewhere at the start of the chapter
what?
if the nth term converges but not 0, then serie diverges?
and if nth term converges and its to 0, then serie converges?
first statement is tru second is false
alright
so when n^3 is n^2 we get nth term converges and its to 0
then how do we follow up after this fact
@delicate pollen Has your question been resolved?
idk, seems like lot of work to do
Do you realise the series n^3 diverges. If yes then the bracket term is 6.sin(x)-sin(x). Sin is between 1 and -1 so bracket tern is between 7 and -7. So the given series is between -7n^3 and 7n^3 both of which diverges Hence this also diverges
@delicate pollen Has your question been resolved?
im guessing the thumbs downs mean no
See bracket term(6sin(1/n)-sin(6/n)) is irrelevant it is a like a constant whose value is always between 7 and -7. If n^3 diverged both 7n^3 and -7n^3 divergea
What you did here was very non rigorous and it was already answered, the follow up question was does \sum n^2(6sin(1/n)-sin(6/n)) converge?
No same proof will do
n^2 diverges
It is not non rigorous
I am bounding the series between two known divergent series
No wut, bounding between -infty and +infty doesnt mean it diverges
OK then use the property that for any positive number n I can find x such that x^3=n . And all these functions are increasing on natural number
by your reasoning would you say [(\sum^\infty 6\sin(1/n)-\sin(6/n) ] diverges? because [\sum^\infty 1] diverges?
This sequence also diverges yeah although proof needs to be changed
no this series converges
No it doesn't. Tell me the where it converges and why
Interesting. OK I was wrong.
replacing n^3 by n, that series also converges
tho seems like it doesn't converge when replaced by n^2
See for n>0 sin(1/n) is positive right So (6.sin(1/n)-sin(6/n))>1 for all n. Hence the summation should diverge. You are adding positive number greater than 1 at each step.
????
does anything that you wrote make sense
plus integral calculator already confirms that it converges, so not sure what your trying to achieve
b4 I leave, just saying n^2 case is pretty non trivial(but checking integral calculator confirms that it diverges) , so you don't need to think to much about it, the exercises you might face will ask you something pretty direct( don't quote me if I missed some simple trick)
Thank you for the clarification. Indeed, handling the product of two polynomials with high degrees can become quite complex, especially when it comes to calculating the coefficients. In most practical exercises or applications, you will typically deal with polynomials of reasonable degree, and the process I described should work effectively. For extreme cases or complex mathematical situations, specialized software or symbolic calculators can be valuable tools.
If you have any more questions or need assistance with any specific mathematical problems in the future, please feel free to ask. Good luck with your studies and any exercises you encounter!

\frac{2z}{z+3}=\frac{3}{z-10}+2
$\frac{2z}{z+3}=\frac{3}{z-10}+2$
890s
yes it this one
cross multiply to get rid of the denominators
2z • (z-10) = 3(z+3) + 2(z+3)(z-10)
this is what you meant?
yea
nevermind
because we multiply both sides by (z+3) and (z-10)
since the 2 doesn’t have a denominator
cant you cross multiply as the are equal?
ok
so we multiply both denominator and numirator
so therefor itll be 2z(z-10) / (z+3)(z-10) = 3(z+3)/(z-10)(z+3) + 2(z+3)
alr i got 2z^2 - 20z = 3z + 9 + 2z + 6
wait so am i wrong?
don’t forget to also multiply the 2 by (z-10)
yea
and now since i have this result i have to change places in 1 or 2 number
bro how am i wrong?
because we multiply both numirator and denominator
and also the 2 with z+3
if you want to ask a question, please get your own help channel
refer to #❓how-to-get-help
the 2 also needs to be multiplied by (z-10)
i have a maths exam tomorrow morning which consists of Algebra of this kind. I am participating as a way to practice
yes but you asking questions is impeding me helping @soft sentinel
sure buddy my bad
i did?
since you multiply the left side by (z-10) to get rid of the denominator there
but since 2 doesn’t have a denominator of z-10
it doesn’t cancel out
hey bro is it possible if we add the 2 to 3/z-10 by finding common denominator and then cross multiplying and solving for z?
you could
but cross multiplying would be trickier
especially with rational functions
if we add two will we need to find common denominator between 2/1 and 3/z-10
not the 2z, the 2 on the left side of the original equation
the one that was added to 3/z-10
so we start with this
$\frac{2z}{z+3}=\frac{3}{z-10}+2$
890s
and then we cross multiply
okay
giving us
$\frac{(2z)(z+3)(z-10)}{(z+3)} = \frac{(3)(z+3)(z-10)}{(z-10)} + 2(z-10)(z+3)$
890s
you get it so far?
wait hold on
im watching to understand
ohh i got it
we give to everyone the same things
$(2z)(z-10) = 3(z+3) + 2(z-10)(z+3)$
890s
yep
so you crossed on it
alright
2z^2 -20z = 3z + 9 + 2z - 20+ 2z+6
i either have to keep simplify or change the method of calculus
i will try to simplify
it should be $(2z^{2}-20z) = (3z+9) + (2z^{2}-14z-60)$
890s
you have to use foil for the 2(z-10)(z+3)
use foil?
First
Outer
Inner
Last
it's a way to remember how to multiply a term in the form (a+b)(c+d)
we multiply the first of each: a*c
then the outer: a*d
then the inner: b*c
and then the last: b*d
and add them all
could you use latex?
ok
we have a bot that does latex for you if you want
i may check later
just surround ur latex in dollar signs
and then i multiply all of that by 2?
yep
890s
ok, now simplify
the z^2 should have canceled out to 0
oh
cuz 2z^2-2z^2
so -9z=-51

As a helper, please do not give out answers that could be copied as a homework solution. Have the student work through the problem themselves and guide them along the way.
not really helpful if they dont know how you get to it
Agreed
Help!
lol
Anyway
(2/3) to the power of 3 please 🙏🏾!!
alright can i get help rather than having people flame one another in my current help channel?
lmao wtf when is that gonna be useful
I believe so
gonna go to a rock concert, "hmm, yes i hear that this rock concert is about 20,000 times as intense of a mouse squeaking at night"
Ok, we’re solving for P here, not d
lmao bro df
Since we’re comparing the intensities of the sounds
Try solving for P
xNiden
$P$ = $10^{-11.4}*10^{11.4}$ = $1$
xNiden
$73=10\log\left(\frac{P}{10^{-11.4}}\right)$
xNiden
$P$ = $10^{-11.4}*10^{7.3}$ = $10^-4.1$
xNiden
$\frac{1}{10^-4.1}$ = $12589.25$
xNiden

have you written out the vector w-cv?
do you know any ways to show vectors are perpendicular?
a • b = 0?
jsut write c as c in the ()
exactly
Like this?

@icy lance sorry i had to go eat dinner with the fam
nononono
i think youve greatly misunderstood what the dot product is
its not a multiplication like (x+2)*(x+5) or something
theres no such thing as i^2, j^2 and k^2
oof
umm
thats why i said to gather the i and j terms
Would it be like this instead
yes
okay, then its this but get rid of the i and j
this has no unit vectors in it, in fact it has no vectors in the result
youre only multiplying the corresponding components coefficients
so it just becomes 2(2-2c)+5(1-5c)=0
right
yeah
then algebra to find c
indeed so

Assuming all are independent, wouldn't the predictions be (i) True (ii) True (iii) True
hi
how do i solve this?: there are 2 cars, they need to drive 100km. one of them is 54km/h faster and needs 25mins less to drive the 100km. i need to solve this in a quadratic equation, i need the speed and the time (for the 100km) for both cars
To ask for mathematics help on this server, please open your own help channel or help thread. See #❓how-to-get-help for instructions.
@steel lion I suppose that it speed is constant so I would set both equations:
First of all the data we have, the fastest vehicle is the second one
v2=v+54
xi1=xi2=0
xf=100km
tf1-25=tf2
The speed is constant so I can calculate it with the equation of the average speed (I guess that how you say it in English) because it doesn't change
∆x/∆t=v
And then you just put in that equation the values we already have
For the first one (the slower)
100/t=v
For the second one
100/(t-25)=v+54
I hope it helps you (@steel lion )

need help understanding the epsilon delta proof
for functions of 2 variables
i understand the general premise and procedure
heres the example from my textbook:
what would happen if i incorrectly say L=1? for ex
Then you wouldn't be able to get |f - L| arbitrarily small
The big deal here is that |f(x,y) - 0| can be made as small as any choice of ε
mmm ok
so i would still get a relationship betwwen epsilon and delta but its up to me to make sure it makes sense in the context
?

How do I prove that for any n > 2, the symmetric group S_n is not cyclic
A cyclic group must be abelian
Prove that it is not abelian
Therefore it must not be cyclic
Thank you so much
You could show that S3 is not abelian, and that S3 is a subgroup of any permutation group
I thought that by why would that logic not apply with S2 < S3 < S{n>3}
An abelian group has abelian subgroups.
Taking the contrapositive of that:
"If a subgroup is not abelian, the original group wasn't either"
I think you might be trying to suggest that:
"If a subgroup is abelian, then the original group was too"
But that's false
I understand thank you

how would i solve this? im really bad at basic algebra
do you know partial fractions?
i do not recall
oh yes i do know that
i got to this but im unsure what to do after. am i able to cancel the x+4s and x-3s out or no because its being added on the top?
so then what do i do
is A1 and A2 the zeros of the expression its being multiplied to
$\frac7{(x+4)(x-3)}$ into something like $\frac{A_1}{(x+4)}+\frac{A_2}{(x-3)}$
so is A1 -1

where A1, A2 are constants
nah
it's not that easy
did you read through the site?
I always recommend mathisfun for it's clear instructions
so i followed it
yes?
now im at
ohhh, you mixed up the negatives
okay i found what i did wrong
i did the A1 and A2 right but accidentally switched the (x-3) and (x+4) a the last part
oh...
i understand how to do it now thank you for helping
Cheers!

whats the equation of a sets of point which are always same distance apart from (b,0) and the y axis
Such points would be (x,y) such that:
√[(x - b)² + y²] = |x|
Squaring both sides:
(x - b)² + y² = x²

you can (re)prove $\sum_{k=1}^m k = \frac{m(m+1)}{2}$ and then recognize that $$\sum_{k=n}^{n^2} k = \sum_{k=1}^{n^2} k - \sum_{k=1}^{n-1} k$$
AnnGhost
seems like u gotta use $\sum_{n=1}^k(n) = n(n+1)/2$
your n and k are the wrong way around above/below the sigma
this would be the least painful way i think btw
Rootsyl
cant he collect all the n terms together, and the natural numbers together, and add n^2 at the last?
n is the upper limit, k is the index
still wrong notation
longer than my approach imo
hmm true ig

yes
ok
right
would you like us to go through some simpler examples or do you want to try the one you came with
simpler would help please
ok
i'll want you to write out your work in full and verbalize all actions you take
here's the first equation for you to solve:
x + 4 = 11
oh wait do i minus 4 on each side
ok that'll do
thanks for the help
oh
i was going to give you another one to solve now
rightio
8x = 96
ok yeah you divide both sides by 8
great
let's now up the ante a little bit
2x + 1 = 91
ok
it looks like you've recalled enough
can you now try the one you came with, i.e. 3x - 5 = -6?

Can someone help me with 3 and 4?
In 3 I tried factoring, adding them by multiplying by denominator
I tried all I could but cant find answer
Did you try putting it over a common denominator first
Sqrt(x) = (sqrt(2)+1) i also tried that
(x^(3/2) * x^(3/2) - 1) / x^(3/2) = ?
Uhh wait what
How did you get that
What does it mean tho
I did this
Just a common step to get towards simplification
I just cross multiplied to get ((x sqrt(x))^2 - 1)/(x*sqrt(x))
riemann
And √x = x^(1/2)
x = x^1
Apply first row
But I am still not close to final answer tho
Bro I am even farther from the answer than when I started 💀
Simplify it more
Using the first row again
Yes now thats (x^3 - 1)/(x^(3/2))
Calculate other parts of this expression
Whenever you get stuck, go back and see what else you haven't calculated yet
x^3, x^(3/2)
You broke down the problem into smaller parts
Using this
So its ((sqrt(2)+1)^6)/(sqrt(2)+1)^3)
So calculate this for your x
How did you get this
If it's true, it's easier to just evaluate the beginning expression rather than putting over a common denominator
x^(3/2) - 1/(x^(-3/2))
I still dont get what you meaj
How do I evaluate the first expression
Thats the question I am asking here

pls help me
need help with algebra 1
idk whats about it
but one of the questions are like l = prt
and i make it r = l/pt
but how do i show work
what do you mean?
You have to say you divided by p and by t
That's probably enough
but it kinda depends on what you are taught
"Solving for a variable", "Isolating a variable" ...
Same thing as with something like $2x = 2$
USS-Enterprise
No problem 🙃
$what is this command thing$
Latex
super cool
nice

Nice for writing fractions: $r = \frac{l}{pt}$
Morrow
how do you learn to type this
how to write fractions
$fraction = \frac{numerator}{denominator}$
USS-Enterprise
$r = \frac{L}{pt}$
sarabcool
$r = \frac{L}{pt}$
Exactly
You can get a bit more complex
$\forall(a, b) \in \mathbb{R}^2: (|a| < 1 \land |b| < 1) \implies |a + b| < |1 + ab|$

can anyone tell me why it is i determinent -j then +k?
what determines wether the outside of the determinent of the vector will be positve of negative
+-+
-+-
+-+
is the pattern, this is just how you calculate the determinant when expanding about rows/columns
can you choose any of these?
if youre doing cross product and have i,j,k along the top row then you must expand along the top row
so i must do +-+?\

I'm trying to derive the sum-to-product formula for sinusinv, but I'm running into trouble. Here's my work, please excuse the handwriting:
I see that, if I multiply both sides by -1, I'll end up with the intended formula: cosx - cosy = -2sin((x+y)/2)sin((x-y)/2), but I'm wondering if there's some way to set this up where I don't have to multiply by -1 at the end. Or, alternatively, does it matter if I do? Can I just use cosy-cosx = 2sin((x+y)/2)sin((x-y)/2) instead?
there is absolutely no problem in multiplying both sides of an equation by any number but 0
omg it's "sin(u)sin(v)", i read that as "sinus inv[erse]"
Sorry about that, I'll keep that in mind for next time.
Got it, thanks. Is there a reason that the given formula appears to have been multiplied by -1, instead of being left in the form that I've derived?
For context:
yes that's what i was going to say
first terms in all other formula starts with x and second term is y
i think that the reason
Got it, so it's likely just to keep all of the first terms in the same order of x and y?
Thanks for the help! 🫡

Use direct comparison test to show if it converges or diverges
the cos^2n is confusing me, how do i know what to compare this series to?
cos^2(n) <= ... ?
idk
name literally any number that cos^2(n) is always less than or equal to
okay then think of the graph of cos(x) and the graph of cos^2(x)
ok i know the cos(x) graph but idk cos^2(x)
okay well what is cos(x) always less than or equal to
1
okay and do you think squaring all values of cos(x) could cause them to be greater than 1?
no
great so you know that cos^2(x) <= 1 for all x

so now use that to compare
so u compare with 1/n^(3/2)
yeah

prove sqrt(3) is irrational
let sqrt(3) = a/b
i get to point where
3b^2 = a^2
but i dont know how to proceed
like a lot of proofs just say
since a^2 is a multiple of 3, a is a multiple of 3, but i dont understand why
think about prime factors
if you write 3 as a product of prime factors, when you square it the powers of those factors must be even
e.g. $2\cdot3^2 \cdot7$ has square $2^2\cdot3^4\cdot7^2$
Edward II
so if 3 divides a^2, because it must have come from a, 3 must have a power of at least 2 in the factorisation of a^2
so it must have had power at least 1 in the original a
that is 3 divides a

This graph's behavior near the asymptotes is shown in table below.
So my quesiton is why is x-> 2- is y -> negative infinity when the leftmost part of the graph is still going up as it approaches asymtope of 2?
y -> positive inf
i think you made a mistake
Let me check
Ok I think you're right, but I'm just confused how this + and - notation works
2- means from the left side, 2+ means from the right side
Left side/right side meaning the graph's leftmost / rightmost function? Or the direction where the graph is going?
So this would be the left side?
I think that's what you mean
yes
Hmm ok
imagine printing out the graph and cutting it with scissors in half exactly at 2
the right half will be 2+
the left will be 2-
Ok makes sense
So just to check my understanding, -2+ would be y -> infinity, since for it to approach -2 it have to keep going up to y infinity? (infinity is unreachable in this case but yk what I mean)
(-2)+ would be y -> -infinity
(-2)- would be y -> +infinity
what's this function so i can plot it too?
1/(x+2)(x-2)
artemetra
let's gooo
I checked my table and it's correct?
But why is this? If we were trying to approach it this way we wouldn't get closer to the asmytope of -2?
you can think of (-2)+ as being just greater than -2
and of (-2)- as being just smaller than -2
if you have $(-2)+ = -2 + \epsilon$, where $\epsilon > 0$ is some tiny value, you'll see that as $\epsilon$ gets smaller, y tends to $-\infty$
artemetra
So essentially this?
YES
yes
this is what i was trying to explain lol

epsilon delta as always
for the first, you use the fact that if f(x) > M (which it is near a by assumption), then 1/f(x) < 1/M and use that to find a useful δ, similarly for g and then algebra of limits
the third I need to think about
(and the second because that one might not be that straightforward, but I'm not sure)
yes, so that limit isn't necessarily 0 and hence isn't to be selected
yes, but that's not a proof
I do think the third is pretty straightforward though, again by saying you get f(x) > any M, g(x) > any N by choosing appropriate δ and then you can choose those so that M^-N < ε
.
yep f(x)=g(x)=1/x make the second limit e-1

you've probably been taught some form for exponential growth like $N(t)=Ae^{kt}$

if you sub t=0, you get A as the initial population, with some multiplier k that you find with another given population value
