hi
How would i start this problem. I know that theres 26 letters and 10 digits to chose from
can you reduce it to 5 individual choices
and knowing that e.g. if you have 10 choices for A and 5 for B, then you have 10*5=50 total choices
what have you establis so far? a? should be straightforward permu question
@cunning thistle Has your question been resolved?

.reopen
✅
How would I set up the permutation problem though
i failed my math
so you know it hahs to be form 0ABCD or 0ABCDE, right? then you know
$ digit 1 = {0, 1}$
$ digit 2 = {A, B,.....}$
$ ... $
so how many unique str?
@cunning thistle Has your question been resolved?
im a bit confused with the dollar signs and the set notation
@cunning thistle Has your question been resolved?
im working on another problem as well thats somewhat similar, should i put it here or start a new channel
So consider for a
How many potential digits exist for the first spacing
Please reply to me when you see this so that I can be notified that you responded
10 for the first spacing if wanted. Theres the option for zero as well. Theres 26 for the 4 or 5 different letters
Yeah. And you can have two types of plates. Digit and 4 letters or digit and 5 letters right
So we have two outcomes where we have to add the possibilities, right?
So let's start with the first scenario
A digit and 4 letters
So that's all of the first plate scenarios
Then for the second plate scenarios, it should be?
just 24^5? since theres no numbers?
That's tricky because of the phraising
I believe it is a digit followed by 5 letters
Phraising is atrocious
the biggest problem im having is trouble understanding the maximun amount of characters it needs
this is optional homework but i have a test tomorrow that im feeling uncomfortable about
I believe a plate could be 0aaaa or 1bbbbb as examples
With this presumption it should be 10×26^5
Which we add with 10×26^4,
Yeah that sounds cool
its incorrect 😦
So perhaps the error is in our understanding of the question
I dare try 10×26^4+26^5
Which is 16,451,136
nope. 3/10 tries used. so I have a lot of options
Looking at fluffy flareons concept, they said the only digits are 0 or 1. Let's try 2×26^4+2×26^5
Then perhaps 2×26^4+26^5 if that doesn't work
Former is 24,676,704. Latter is 12,795,328
nope 😦
Okay perhaps here is another understanding
A plate doesn't have to have a number. So possible plates are aaaa, bbbbb, 1cccc, 2ddddd. If that makes sense
So add those differing possibilities
I get 135,721,872 from 26^5+26^4+10×26^5+10×26^4
Np. Issue was with how they phrased the question
Should have be a plate can have a digit followed by 4 letters or 5 letters, or a plate can have [no digit followed by] 4 letters or 5 letters
for the second one, I think i just need to decrement the 26 by one for every exponent it exists since it cant repeat
Yeah that sounds right. So 26×25×24×23 for the 4 letter plate
The way the number is often represented is through 26!/(26-n)!, where in is the ammount of letters you are using

I need help with 3 variable linear systems. I've worked this problem out over and over and I cant seem to get the right answer.
what's the problem
- 3x + 3y + z = 26
- x - 3y +2z = -12
- 8x - 2y +3z = 10
These are the three systems and that's my work above.
I know that X = 2 but I can't figure out how to get there.
why'd it go from 30x+11z=82 to 30x+9z=82
Hmm
I went back and caught a mistake earlier. let me look
Ah yes
9z is the correct number
Even though it shows 30x+11z=82 I used 30x+9z=82 when solving a 2 variable
are you sure?
i think your work to get 30x+11z=82 was correct
1b. 3(8x-2y+3z=10)
That equals 24x-6y+9z=30. I made a mistake earlier and was trying to focus on another variable to eliminate instead of Y.
oh....
oh shit
that's it
right, you were eliminating y
but you still got the equation with 11z in it
any tips for mitigating future mistakes?
i mean i think this was just not checking the work carefully enough
if youre confident your method was correct the only thing to do is just go line by line and see if anything got messed up
not for this kind of question
your choice might make it a little faster
but it should get the same answer

I hope this doesn't go into hidden section again 💀
That’s a test 💯
<@&268886789983436800> this is meme level ban

4. I got an answer and would like my work checked.
5. I have a question about someone else's work/solution.
6. I have completed the problem and don't need help anymore. Thank you.
7. None of the above
I know nothing
How did you get 3x+8 then?
I just solved it
solved what
To get value of y
how?
4x+7y=14?
I couldn't find the page where I had to solve it🥲
It was yesterday's test
I got this thi
Tho*
I had tried solving it again in the morning
@empty gyro
Oh I got the original one too
Looks like I had kept the value of the given coordinates (-3, 8) in the formula y:mx+c (which seems very wrong now cause my is slope and idk what I did yesterday)

Where is this function continuous?
I know its continous for every (x,y), where y Isnt equal to 0
But I cant figure out for which points (x,0) its continous
@candid oar Has your question been resolved?
for a fixed value of x, what happens when you make y a small positive value? what happens when you make y a small negative number?
and what does the behavior of this exponent tell you about how the value of your whole expression will change
i.e., what is "x*e^{-infinty}" and what is "x*e^{infinity}"
xe^{infinity} "is" infinity, xe^{-infinity} "is" 0
exactly, so this is to say that on one side of (x,0) you will get points close to zero, and the other side you will get points close to infinity
so what does this say about continuity at (x,0)
So its not contunuous for any (x,0)
mostly! we need more caution at (0,0)
Can you sent bazik of math
since this part only really holds when x is non zero
What do we do for (0,0) then?
at (0,0), we would know the function is discontinuous if we could find arbitrarily small values for x and y where the function would take on a large value
so is there any path we could approach (0,0) from that would not converge to 0?
I am very need
So for a small x we use a negative y thats close to 0
as a negative y approaches 0, e^(-x^2/y) goes to infinity
And since x is constant, xe^(-x^2/y) goes to infinity
this worked when x was fixed, but will this still work when x goes to 0?
one way that you can approach this is to parameterize a path, like we could take the points (x,-x) and send x to 0, this would be a path that goes to zero
and allong this path we take values xe^(x), but this function approaches 0 as x goes to 0
so if we want to show discontinuity we would need a different path
and one way to think about this is what value could we put in the exponent of e^() so that it goes to infinity as we go to 0
Maybe x = y^2?
if we had x=y^2 then our exponent would be e^(-y^3) which goes to 1 as y goes to 0
What do you suggest?
so you want the exponent to get large when x goes to zero
so something like 1/x
is there some choice of y we could make to get the exponent to be 1/x?
y = x^3
yep! (-x^3) might be slightly cleaner to look at as it would cancell the negative sign though
so if you approach (0,0), along the path (x,-x^3), what happens to f(x,-x^3)?
f(x,-x^3) = xe^(1/x) for y thats not 0
Exactly
And as the limit path you are only never has y=0, it will always take that value
And what happens to that when you make x small?
It goes towards infinity
And how is this information useful in the context of our trying to sho continuity?
Its discontinuous in (0,0)
Yep!
Thank you

Find the Total number of ways in which 20 balls can be put into 5 boxes so that the first box just contains 1 ball.
The answer key says it’s 20 * 4^19
I’m getting 5 * 4^19
By principle of counting, there are 5 ways to put the first ball into 5 boxes but 4 ways to put each of the other 19 balls to be put, so 4^19.
So 5 * 4^19
I understand that one way to account for the answer in the key is the fact that we can choose any one of the 20 balls to be put into the first box. But I feel like I can’t see where that would fit in with what I’ve done
I understand now lol

Hey guys, i've just had a test and they asked me if these matrixes were stepped, reduced or not any of the before. I got a 0,5/1 and I don't know why and I don't know if i should go to the revision about this
Think about matrix A again
Yeah is the one i was thinking about
i've said none bc there is no 1 in the 3rd row
Isn't there a need to be all the principal ones in the matrix to be stepped/reduced?

anyone mnd guiding me
That's right
It's a right angled triangle with other two angles as 45⁰
Can you think of any property?
I dunno anything, OW and WV are obviously equal then since it is isoceles
Yes, we are gettin somewhere
I've tried various methods but I'm lost
And also it's a right angled triangle
SOH CAH TOA?
how would i get the point w from that tho
Also you know the modulus of 4+i
root 17
We will come to that
let's take it as x,y for now
okay lemme try
Sure
Yeahh alr I dunno where to go after getting the modulus
I have like near 0 experience with vectors but gotta so
We will get to it
It's alr
But did you get the modulus?
yep
Yes so
oh mb i typed +
The length of hypotenuse is also given
Ah np
Ok we assumed W as (x,y)
And we know it's modulus
i and j components....?
How can we form an equation now
Ye
Relating x and y to modulus?
It's the same way you found modulus for 4+i
modulus = root of x^2 + y^2
Yess
work backwards alr
Ye
You could square both sides to get rid of the sqrt
So it would be
x^2 + y^2 = 17/2
Works?
and we need a second probably for a sim equation
To find another... We can do the similar thing for VW
yep so 17/2 also equal x^2 + y^2, no??
Yeah that's the first equation
But now between points V and W, the distance is the same as OW
yep root17/root2
x1 - x2, y1-y2 maybe
Have you seen the distance formula?
I'm still kinda confused as to how we can use this to get w but i know nothing atm so
Just get the relation
If it's difficult to type then just send the pic of the equation when you get it
I gotta dip g I havent been focusing here
if you're able and you've done it could yhou send line a small line just explaining your method in dms
i gotta dip
i apprecite it alot tho still

As for A, by drawing the probability tree I got 1/5 is that right?
@noble void Has your question been resolved?
taking just the 1/5,
that'd be the probabilty that the second ball is white given that the first ball is white
which isn't what the question is asking for
also note that there are two branches where the second ball is white
The problem is, it's not stating from which side it's coming from
I mean it's only saying the second ball is white
In that case what should I do?
and not just take one, or a random one
there are two ways to get second ball being white
WW
RW
find the probability for each event
and add them
So 1/5+2/5 is what you mean?
Oh wait so 2/6 * 1/5 + 4/6 * 2/5
yes
And the third question I did the same but P(w1|w2) using the formula
for b I got 8/15 by doing 2/6 * 4/5 + 4/6 * 2/5

Bit confused with the final proposition, is it saying r is determined by the lambda blocks or that r is determined by the minimal polynomial itself?
@unique valley Has your question been resolved?
it just makes the link between the two
I’m more so asking say for example we have lambda blocks of J_1(lambda)…J_5(lambda) but the minimal poly is (x-lambda)^6.
Max(1,2,3,4,5)=5 but clearly the highest power of (x-lambda) to divide the minimal poly is 6

I did this idrk what to do
,tex .log rules
you cant use quotient rule at all
wat
how
yes
you should end up with a fraction on the denominator
with the top and the bottom both being log_5(soemthing)
the bottom two logs should be log_5 not just log, and you should show that the bottom division happens first with parenthesis
but yes, thats right
now do you know how to simplify fraction/fraction?
no
oh is the top part 1
Idk
log_5(m)/log_5(m) at the top tho
i was going to ❌ this but i guess its ambigious and could be right
can you show work
uhh I haven't rlly written anything else
okay, when you do let me know
the log_5(15) should have moved all the way to the top, why did it get stuck down there
its d in my above example of simplifying
your fraction is (log_5(m) / 1) ////// ( log_5(m) / log_5(15) )
lots of division for the middle one
ok
is it right
is all of your work correct? if so then it is
||its correct, but you should understand why and not have to ask to confirm||

Hey, can anyone help me figure out matlab?
I want to plot (0.5258,-0.0117) with my differential eq graph
if I plot the point after i first plot my diff eq graph, the differential equation graph disappears
but I cant figure out how to plot them together either, because the differential equation isnt defined by one single variable so i cant exactly follow tutorials online
that's weird I pretty much copied your code and I can have the graph and the point
I'm using octave but that shouldn't change much

Some context. Parts a and b respectively ask to show that the sample covariance between a scaling instrument and predicted residuals is 0, and to show that two different forms of an instrumental variable are algebraically equivalent. One using the predicted value y and the other using observed y. My problem arises in part c where it asks to test the validity of one scaling instrument (z1) given another (z2). I got to the final line, and now am unsure whether I take an expectation here or if I am even correct in not cancelling the cov(x,z) term as I did in part a. Would greatly appreciate some guidance here.

is multiplicity the same thing as eigenvalue?
if so, i have 2 eigenvalues?
λ_1 = 1 λ_2 = 2?
here is the full question:
not really?
its how many times its the root of the characteristic polynomial
oh, then how do I find the eigenvalues?
so your characteristic polynomial looks something like $(x+4)x^2$, right?
this matrix looks like this to me
1 1 -2 0 0 0 0 0 0
you subtracted λI from A?
0-λ 0 0 4 4-λ -8 4 4 -8-λ
am i allowed to do RREF on A first? or will that change the answer
1-λ 1 -2 0 0-λ 0 0 0 0-λ
you cant
but yes, do det(A-lambda*I)

are general equations always supposed to be written using the smallest positive angle?
for example, I'm doing a question to solve for theta in cot(theta) = -2.2 radians, where theta is a real number. The first angle I got was about -24.5 degrees, and I made the general equation -24.5 + 180n, where n is an element of an integer, but the correct general equation was made using the positive angle 155.5.
is this just preference, or is it a rule to form general statements with the smallest positive angle?
it's just preference, doesn't really matter
oh ok, thanks 👍
no problem 👍
also, I am having trouble visualizing angle restrictions like this:
-360 <_ theta < 360
those should be greater than/equal to and vice versa
for these restrictions, when I try to understand them I just think that it's a single line because if you were to go -360 it would bring you back to the same point as going 360 degrees around a circle
well that is two full rotations around the circle
oh
so it's like if you go -360 that line would be 0
then you go around another -360 and it would be 360?
sorry if that's confusing
well, I think you might be misunderstanding the point of the restriction
yeah, -360, 0, and 360 are coterminal angles
all three of them are the same position on the circle
and yeah your picture makes sense
360 is a full turn counterclockwise
-360 is a full turn clockwise
and 0 is doing nothing
so all three end up in the same place
but you're probably being asked for all the solutions to some equation between -360 and 360 or something
ohh
I'm not sure why I didn't get that before, it was just a bit difficult to understand visually for me 😅
thanks again

Hello, I've done this problem a few times now and can't seem to get it right
For the third side c, I get 9.25 each time which I'm pretty sure is right, but the angles can't be right since they don't add to 180
this was my first attempt, my second attempt I got 84.4 for A
can you show all the work you're doing
yeah sure it's a little unorganized
I used the law of cosines
oh I should mention the picture is my second attempt, different from my answers in the screesnshot

Solve for t?
Yea
So 14/t is the second term?
Mhm
Try multiplying the whole equation by t

It's essentially a system of equations. Let's call the best cruise speed x and the economy cruise speed y.
You know that:
Trip 1: 2x + 3y = 850
Trip 2: 3x + 2y = 900
That is one way to go about it, yes

Find all positive integer solutions of $x$ and $y$ in the equation: $y=\frac{x^{2}+7}{x+3}$
Sb
Sb
Yes but then how do we know for certain that a very large positive integer is not also a solution?
Sb
try doing polynomial division. where will that get you?
Sb
I get this
by the way i think you made some error while checking your answers
Wdym?
y=5 and x= 4 is not a solution for example
mb I swapped the x and y values
hmm where did that +16 come from?
why does it say +7?
alright
Sb
Updated
so the result of the polynomial division is x-3 with a remainder of 16
Yes
How do I do this?
The only way I think I can get the solution is to use trial and error but there has to be better way
so with the polynomial division you've arrived at this step
(x+3)(x-3)+16=x^2+7
there is something you can do here to make y appear on one side
what can you do?
remember y=(x^2+7)/(x+3)
y= (x+3)(x-3)+16?
no because that would mean that y = x^2+7
you can divide by a certain expression here to make sure (x^2+7)/(x+3) appears
Sb
Sb
No
alright
so since x is supposed to be a positive integer
x + 3 is also a positive integer
integer + integer = integer
so now all you really gotta do is check when 16/(x-3) is an integer
it is still a tiny bit of trial and error but now you only have to check a small amount of cases
16,8,4,2,1,
exactly
don't forget negative divisors as well
so, if you want 16/(x-3) to be a whole number as well, then x-3 has to divide 16
makes sense right?
if it doesn't then it's some sorta decimal
Yes it makes sense
and then y would not be an integer
so - when would x-3 divide 16? and that's how you get all your cases
I also have another question if you have time
it's a bit late for me sorry
i'm sure you can find someone else though
maybe with some time
Ok thanks for your help

My clock chimes two times $15$ minutes after the hour, four times $30$ minutes after the hour and six times $45$ minutes after the hour. The clock also chimes eight times on each hour in addition to chiming the number of times equal to the hour. (So at $2:00$ p.m., the clock chimes $8 + 2 = 10$ times.) Starting at $12:05$ a.m., how many times does the clock chime in a $24$-hour period?
龖
when they say after the hour do they mean after XX:00 or after 12:05

How would I go about solving this?
But what does comp mean?
comp isnt a word tho
maybe it is projection
projection of (a-b) on c
$\operatorname{comp}_{\bold{c}} (\bold{a} - \bold{b}) = \left( (\bold{a}-\bold{b}) \cdot \bold{c} \right) \bold{c}$

Ava
you're just negating the second term
distribute the negative to the (y-x) and you'll see
now compare that to the left hand side
similar?
-(y-x) = this
right?
yeah ok
you can add in any order
a+b = b+a
.
wdym lol
you're just factoring out a -1 from the term
you are surprised ok
but do you understand?
ok nice
you can distribute the -1
to what you want
the equality will stay true

I can’t seem to do the F(x) correctly
Would love some advice 🥺
I’m thinking of using this
But I’m not getting the same as wolf
$\int_0^\pi \frac{sinx}{2 - sin^2 x} dx$
Lorentz
This the q?
Yes
wait
I just want step 3 to be correct
nvm it won't work
$-\int_1^{-1}\frac{dt}{t^2 + 1}$
Lorentz
Why minus at before integral?
why -?
sinx = 1
And that's -dt
Yes
How does it become -dt?
And the limits from 1 to -1, I hope you got why it's that
cos x = t
-sinx dx = dt
sin x dx = -dt
Where does -sinx dx come from?
Coz if you have dt/dx, it's -sin x
dt/dx = -sin x
So dt= -sin x dx
Which is the negative of numerator
Why did you put sinx = 1
Which formula? I'm confused now
This?
This
Yes so
Why -1 to 1?
No wait after you substitute and change the lower and upper limits you don't need to revert back
I got 0 and pi
You can directly put in the new limits in the new variable you made for substitution
You'll get the same ans since it's definite integral
-sinxtan^-1(cosx)
Well ok let's say you revert it back
Where did the -sinx come from
This is just tan^-1(cos x) as t= cos x
The primitive of sin(x)/(2-sin(x)^2) is not -sin(x)arctan(cos(x))
if I want to integrate this
Didn't you do that last week or so
I’m about to submit it but I don’t understand it
I checked my answer on paper and did it wrong somewhere
I just don’t understand how I get F(x) from the function
No, that's not how it works

Isn’t this the formula used to find F(x)
Yeah but you can't just substitute sin(x) with 1
$\int \frac{\sin(x)}{2-\sin(x)^2} ,dx = \int \frac{\sin(x)}{2-(1-u^2)} \cdot \frac{1}{-\sin(x)} ,du$
Nel
I have no idea what that means. I had cos^2x in the denominator
$\int \frac{sinx}{2-(cos^x +1)}$
Merineth
$\int \frac{sinx}{2-(cos^2x -1)} = \int \frac{sinx}{1+cos^2x}$
Ok
This is wrong, should be 1-cos^2(x) in the parentheses
Yeah mb
$\int \frac{\sin(x)}{1+\cos(x)^2} ,dx = \int \frac{\sin(x)}{1+u^2} \cdot \frac{1}{-\sin(x)} ,du$ with $u = \cos(x)$
Fml this boy
Merineth
Like so?
Nel
No, it's 1 - cos^2(x), not cos^2(x) - 1 ...
But u = cos^2x not u =cosx
If you want to use this formula then you need u^2
What it’s that multiplication you are doing?
Yeah that's why the last time I kind of side-stepped the use of substitution
Oh I see but why can’t I just use the formula directly?
That’s what I’ve do so far in the course
Because you have sin(x) in the numerator, not 1
And previously in my life
Oh okay
So I want to get it to be 1 before doing anything?
